Chapter 30: A Reminder of the Flowing Beads

Liuzhu raised her head, but she dodged her gaze to the side, she said: "I don't want to know about the matter between sisters, and it has nothing to do with me, even if the two of them fight, what can it do?" It's not like I haven't quarreled before. ”

Liuzhu's words were cold and terrifying, and there was also a very obvious sense of resistance, which Mengyun and Dongmei had not thought of before they came. Why is she like this? What a strangeness!

Dongmei is the top sister in 'Fengyue Building', and she is not afraid of flowing beads.

I saw her eyes staring at Liuzhu's face tightly, as if she wanted to see through all the secrets in her heart......

Dongmei suddenly changed the topic, and she asked Liuzhu: "Does Chun Tao usually beat and scold you?" ”

Liuzhu didn't expect Dongmei to suddenly ask her this question, she was obviously flustered, and soon returned to normal, and replied with certainty: "No, Chun Tao has never scolded me, she has always been very good to me." ”

Hearing Liuzhu say this, Dongmei smiled slightly.

Her eyebrows were raised, and there was a glimmer of light in her dark eyes.

She reached out and grabbed Liuzhu's wrist, and quickly pushed Liuzhu's sleeve up with her other hand......

Liuzhu was startled by Dongmei's sudden push of her sleeves, and she wanted to retract her arms, but it was too late.

I saw that on Liuzhu's arm, the dark red scars were shocking, and people couldn't bear to look at them.

Mengyun thought in her heart, "It should be Chun Tao who used something like a branch or rattan to whip Liuzhu hard, and Liuzhu raised her arm to protect her head due to instinct, so most of the scars from the whipping were concentrated on her arm." But now that Chun Tao is dead, why does she still say that Chun Tao has always been good to her! It's weird. Perhaps, it was Chun Tao who cast a shadow in her heart! I don't know! ”

Dongmei's beautiful eyes blinked, shook her head again, she sighed lightly, and said softly: "This Chun Tao, who has suffered a thousand cuts, her heart is really ruthless, and she actually beat you like this." You must be in pain! After a while, I asked Mengyun to go to the pharmacy outside to buy some trauma medicine and bring it to you. You apply the medicine, and the wound will heal quickly. ”

Liuzhu lowered her head, and she said lightly: "Thank you Sister Dongmei for your concern, you don't need to buy trauma medicine, my little injury is almost healed." ”

Dongmei let out a long sigh and said, "Everyone in our 'Fengyue Tower' knows that this spring peach!" is usually arrogant and domineering, and she has a big temper, she can't be good to you at all. I've known for a long time that she will often beat and scold you for no reason, using you as a punching bag. Let me tell you, sometimes those of us who are sisters will inevitably have some friction with the guests, but we can't have a direct conflict with the guests, so we can only endure it in order to earn a little more money. Therefore, some sisters are often drunk, and after getting drunk, they vent their fire on the personal maid, and Chun Tao is even more incisive in this aspect. It's like the big fish in the sea eat the small fish, and the small fish eat the dried shrimp. What about you, I think you may have been numb to Chun Tao's violent way for a long time! Actually, you know what? It's not easy for everyone living here. It's not just here, it's not easy for people outside to live, it's only easy for rich people to live. Here, at least, you have a bedroom, decent clothes to wear, a full meal, and you're still a virgin. If you're out there and you're alone, you're nothing, you know? ”

Liuzhu nodded.

After a pause, Dongmei continued: "Sometimes, I also think, you have served Chun Tao for so long, she often beats and scolds you for no reason, is it so difficult that you won't feel resentful? You tell me the truth, have you ever thought about it, or are you looking forward to Chun Tao's early death. ”

Hearing Dongmei say this, Liuzhu quickly shook her head, and she cried.

She amplified her voice and said, "No, I never hoped that Chun Tao would die soon. Actually, I just wish she would be nice to me. Even if she doesn't hit me, I'll be content. ”

Liuzhu took out a handkerchief from her arms, she wiped her tears, and sobbed softly......

Dongmei asked, "Since Chun Tao is not good to you at all, why did she put the door key in your hand?" Isn't she afraid that you will steal her jewelry? Does she really trust you that much? ”

Liuzhu sighed lightly and said helplessly: "Chun Tao is a very greedy person, she knows very well how much jewelry she has, and she even remembers where those jewelry are placed. She put the key to my house here, and I didn't dare to take it. Actually, I was really scared by her. Think about it, if I take her jewelry, where will I go? I don't even have a place to stay outside, and if I get caught, Chun Tao won't beat me to death! ”

Dongmei showed a look of pity, and she said in a gentle voice: "Chun Tao is usually domineering in the 'Fengyue Tower', and you are her personal maid. Chun Tao's beating and scolding of you, we outsiders really have no way to interfere! Now that Chun Tao is dead, no one will dare to beat you in the future. You are still young, live happily! ”

Liuzhu nodded vigorously, and she said, "Thank you!" Sister Dongmei. You come to me today and ask whatever you want! I know everything. ”

Mengyun looked at the beads in front of her, and suddenly felt a little sympathetic to her.

She thought to herself, "If Aunt Feng had asked me to serve Chun Tao, what would have happened?" Perhaps, the one who was beaten and angry was me. Can I have the endurance of Liuzhu? Definitely not, maybe, I would have pulled out a dagger and killed Chun Tao. That's fate! It must have been arranged in advance by God. ”

There was silence in the room......

Liuzhu lowered her head, and she was casually fiddling with the handkerchief in her hand.

Mengyun asked Liuzhu: "What do you think of Qiulan?" ”

Liuzhu thought about it, and she replied: "Qiulan is not a good person, nor is it bad. Anyway, she is much better than Chun Tao. I think she's nervous sometimes, especially when she's drunk. Her relationship with Chun Tao is average. What's the matter, do you suspect that she is the murderer? ”

Mengyun nodded and said, "Yes! Qiulan is very suspicious now, but I haven't found any evidence to identify her as the murderer! ”

Liuzhu said: "The evidence must be in Chun Tao's room, it may be that you have overlooked something." ”

Mengyun let out a long sigh and said in disappointment: "I've found all the places I should be looking for, but I haven't found any!" I don't know what to do next. ”

Liuzhu thought for a while, and she asked, "Have you found Chun Tao's bed?" ”

Mengyun asked suspiciously, "Under the bed?" How can there be evidence under the bed? It's impossible for the murderer to get under Chun Tao's bed? ”

Liuzhu said: "Mengyun, you have not really handled a case, and you have no experience in handling cases. Do you know? The murderer herself did not get under the bed, but there is a good chance that the objects on her body would fall under the bed during the struggle with the deceased before death! ”

Hearing Liuzhu's words, Mengyun was like an empowerment, she nodded vigorously, revealing a smile on her face.

She snapped her fingers happily and said, "That's right! How could I not have thought of it! Thank you, Liuzhu, if you find evidence under Chun Tao's bed, you will really help me a lot. ”

Liuzhu also smiled at Mengyun and said, "Then don't go find it quickly." ”

"Well, I'll go now." Mengyun looked very happy.

Dongmei thought in her heart, "Don't look at this Liuzhu as just a little girl, but her mind is meticulous, it's really not simple!" ”

Spring Peach's room.

Mengyun squatted on the ground, she reached out and lifted the sheet to look under the bed......

Under Chun Tao's bed, there is only a night pot and more than a dozen pairs of embroidered shoes of different colors.

It's just that the position of these embroidered shoes is very arbitrary, one in the east and one in the west, as if they were thrown into it casually.

Mengyun knows that Chun Tao is a person who likes to be clean and tidy.

A question rose in her heart, how could this be?

She casually took out a few embroidered shoes, placed them on the ground, and looked at them roughly.

Dongmei stood beside her and asked curiously, "What's under the bed?" ”

Mengyun replied: "There is only a night pot and a dozen pairs of embroidered shoes, and nothing else." ”

Dongmei said: "Qiulan is covering Chun Tao in bed. If something on her body falls, it should fall on the bed or on the floor. It's impossible to fall under the bed! Because after all, there are still sheets in the way! ”

Mengyun nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. But we've looked for this bed several times, and there's nothing! The ground was also clean, and there was nothing. Now only under the bed has not been found. ”

After a pause, Mengyun said suspiciously: "It's really strange! The embroidered shoes under the bed are placed in a mess, which is not like the style of spring peach! ”

Hearing Mengyun's words, Dongmei frowned, and she also felt a little strange.

Dongmei squatted down to look at the embroidered shoes, glanced at the bed again, and guessed: "Could it be that someone climbed under the bed and messed up the originally neatly arranged embroidered shoes?" ”

Mengyun nodded and said, "There is such a possibility, I'll go in and take a look." ”

So saying, she fell to the ground and climbed in.

Mengyun looked carefully under the bed......

Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she saw a small round object behind an embroidered shoe. She took the little thing in her hand and crawled out again.

She stood up and patted the dust off her body.

She spread out her palms, looked at it, and said, "It's 'Buttons'!" A pale blue 'button'. ”

Dongmei took the 'button' and put it on her hand to look at it carefully, and said: "This 'button' is exquisitely made, it should be on the clothes of the sisters, but the 'buttons' on the clothes of the maids are not so good." ”
