Volume 1 Sword Shadow Chapter 6 Luring the snake out of the hole
Xue Qing went to find out about Miss Hai's situation, and was taken by the maid to the outer room where Mrs. Hai lived. Mrs. Hai was very emotionally unstable due to the loss of her daughter, but when she saw that Xueqing was a female doll as big as her daughter, she let down her guard.
Mrs. Hai stepped forward to hold Xue Qing's hand, and couldn't bear to say, "Child, let the men do the things to solve the case." At this time, you don't want to go out and take risks as a pretty girl. That wicked man is a murderer of young and beautiful girls. ”
Xue Qing was very uncomfortable being pulled by such a stranger, and felt very warm, and couldn't help but say, "Madam, you are so good." That's what it's like to be a mother. ”
This sentence immediately inspired Mrs. Hai's motherly heart, and she looked at Xue Qing distressedly: "Girl, who are you?" ”
Xue Qing explained: "I didn't have a mother since I was a child, and I was brought up by my father. Except for a wet nurse who took care of my daily life, all the others in the villa were men. So when I saw that my wife cared about me, I couldn't help but wonder if my mother was like this. ”
Lady Hai sighed, "What a poor child. ”
Xue Qing hurriedly leaned over and apologized: "Madam, I was rude." I came here to ask Miss Hai about some things, hoping to solve the case as soon as possible and avenge Miss Hai. ”
"Okay," Madame Hai pulled Xue Qing to sit down on the soft couch, "who do you want to ask, I'll call them." With me here, they don't dare lie to you. ”
"Thank you, ma'am."
Xue Qing asked Mrs. Hai for Miss Hai's portrait, and then found the maid and mother-in-law who served Miss Hai, and asked Miss Hai's temperament, preferences, and physical characteristics one by one; Later, he asked someone to call the escort who accompanied Miss Hai to the courtyard that day, and asked Miss Hai's itinerary that day, including every foothold and every detail; In the end, he again found Wang Zhutou, who had seen the murderer, and a few surviving Zhukuai, and made detailed inquiries about the process of tracking and fighting, as well as the physical characteristics of the murderer, recorded them one by one, and wrote a thick stack of paper.
Xue Qing's serious work made Mrs. Hai even more loved, and she was saved lunch by Mrs. Hai. After dinner, Xue Qing came to East Lake again to observe the place where the corpses were dumped, where she met Bingyan and Xia Hongying.
Although they didn't know each other before, and they didn't have any experience in solving cases, they were all smart people, and they knew a lot of things at a glance, and they basically understood after discussing them.
Although they did not see the body with their own eyes, everyone agreed that Donghu was only the place where the body was dumped, not the scene of the crime, because the case file did not record a large amount of blood at the scene.
If the murderer committed the crime by the East Lake, the series of corpse abuse must have left a large amount of bloodstains, and the autopsy record did not say that the body had been soaked, which also ruled out the possibility that the murderer committed the crime in the lake.
However, it should not be accidental that the place where the body was dumped was the same, so they wanted to find out some characteristics of the murderer at the place where the body was dumped. However, East Lake, as one of the scenic spots of Yuzhou City, has many pedestrians, and no trace can be found for a long time.
Several people returned to Haifu to summarize and analyze the information obtained from the visit and the original recorded files. The five deceased were all between fifteen and twenty years old, with no identities in common, and their appearance was relatively outstanding, all of them had melon seed faces. Except for Miss Qian of the dart game, the other deceased had a red mole or red birthmark on his right wrist.
Miss Zhang, Miss Hai and the maid had all been on the street the day before they were killed, and Miss Tian had to go home to celebrate her grandmother's birthday, and she had to pass through a few streets.
Since Xue Qing asked Miss Hai's itinerary in the most detail, Xia Hongying took a pen and paper, drew Miss Hai's walking routes one by one, and then combined with the routes of several other people they deduced, found a common route, and soon locked several streets. After further analysis, several people bought things on the street, and Miss Hai also gave some steamed buns to a few beggars.
Xia Hongying stopped writing and looked at Xiao Long and Xiao Qiao: "Let's talk about your views first." ”
Zhu Xiaolong hurriedly spoke: "This murderer is strong in martial arts, but he is not our opponent. ”
Xiao Qiao was cautious, and after thinking, he said: "The victims have a lot in common, they are all fifteen to twenty years old, young and beautiful, with a melon seed face, and a red mark on their right wrist. We can protect women with these characteristics. ”
Xia Hongying smiled: "The idea is very good, but let's not talk about whether we can find it all, and then protect it if we find it, didn't we tell the murderer where the target is?" And if there are a lot of people, not to mention whether the state capital has so many troops, a few of us will be exhausted. So the best thing to do is ......"
"Lead the snake out of the hole." Ice Flame continued.
"That's right," Xia Hongying continued, "Although Miss Hai was a mistake, in fact, Lord Hai's approach was right, but the murderer's martial arts were too high. So this time we need to find the woman who fits the characteristics and convince her to ......"
"I'll do it." Xue Qing interrupted Xia Hongying's words.
"But ......"
"Am I not qualified?" Xue Qing pulled up her sleeves, and a cinnabar mole appeared on her right wrist, small and beautiful, "And I can also do martial arts, so I am more sure to catch the murderer than finding an ordinary woman." ”
Ice Flame looked up at her, "It's going to be dangerous. ”
Xue Qing smiled: "With you, I'm not afraid." ”
"Xue Qing," Xia Hongying said, "You must not underestimate the enemy. The murderer threw the body in East Lake, deliberately to let people find it, and later left a note that "Zi Shi visited", indicating that the murderer was very confident in his skills. The fact that he can easily kill the round-up also shows that his kung fu is not weak. ”
"I know all this, didn't I say that we should punish adultery and eliminate evil, now that there is such a person in front of us, how can we retreat? Let me do it, and don't bother the other girls. What Xue Qing didn't say was that through analysis, she suddenly had a very strange thought, in fact, the murderer was coming at her, so let's face it, don't involve innocent people.
It seems that there is really no better way, and seeing that the others are no longer talking, Xia Hongying finally nodded: "Okay." So let's plan what to do next, and first of all, we must ensure our own safety. ”
That night, three figures swept through Yuzhou City and came to the outskirts.
The next morning, a carriage came in from the north gate of Yuzhou City.
"Parking ......"
The carriage stopped, and a stunning woman in purple jumped out of the car: "Wow, this is Yuzhou City, it's so lively." ”
"Miss, come back quickly, be careful of danger." A tall and handsome maid immediately followed.
Miss Purple turned her head and said with a smile: "Isn't there Hong'er for you to protect me?" ”
This smile was beautiful, and Hong'er was stunned, and it took a while to react: "Miss, wait for me to ......"
This purple-clothed lady is full of curiosity about Yuzhou City, and she will buy some food at this stall for a while, and some jewelry over there, and if she can't take it, she will throw it all to the maid Hong'er. The little brother who drove the car was not idle, and told everyone that this was Miss Li, the cousin of the Zhizhou family, who came from the hometown of Hai Daren and went out for the first time.
The lively Li girl added a touch of color to the street, and people admired and prayed that this lovely girl would not be poisoned by the devil.
Finally, Hong'er couldn't bear it anymore, threw the things to the coachman, and dragged Miss Li into the carriage.
As soon as she got into the carriage, Miss Li couldn't stop smiling at Hong'er, isn't this Xueqing. Look at the red again, it's Xia Hongzakura. Yes, this is their plan, and the guy who drove the car is naturally Bingyan.
Xue Qing is responsible for luring the enemy, because the murderer has high martial arts, they are afraid that if they meet Xue Qing on the street, they will be defeated, so Bing Yan and Red Sakura disguise themselves to protect them. Xiao Long and Xiao Qiao stayed behind and continued to practice horseback riding and horse walking.
The carriage swayed into Haifu, and in the afternoon, Miss Li took Hong'er to the street again, and Bingyan followed from afar. Xue Qing still played the innocent Miss Biao, wandering around the street, buying things everywhere, and buying a big bag of steamed buns to distribute to various beggars.
In order to confuse the real with the fake, Haiyu also changed a yard for them, Mrs. Hai recognized Xue Qing as her goddaughter, and all the personnel of Haifu became extras, and they really regarded Xue Qing as a young lady, and the maid Hong'er and the guard Bingyan have also been guarding Xue Qing's side.
After two days in a row, Xue Qing came back from outside and sat in the gazebo, and the maid from Haifu immediately brought fruit. Xue Qing glanced at Xia Hongying and whispered, "Do you say that it is because you are here, that person can't find out the truth, so he didn't act rashly." ”
"It's a possibility."
"You and Bingyan don't protect me at night, give him a chance."
"But ......"
"If you don't go into the tiger's den, you can get a tiger, and besides, I feel someone staring at me today. Don't worry, I'm confident in my martial arts. ”
"What if the other party comes to yin?"
"Isn't there still you?"
"Okay, I'll go and relay Ice Flame."
It didn't take long for another person to appear in front of Xue Qing: "I'll change rooms with you at night." ”
Xue Qing smiled: "Are you caring about me?" ”
Bingyan denied, "I don't want our first case to fail. ”
Xue Qing quietly stuffed a bamboo can-like thing into Bing Yan's hand: "Take it, this is the Soul Chasing Bee, I have already smoked the Soul Chasing Incense on me, if the other party can really take advantage of my unpreparedness to take me away, as long as the Soul Chasing Bee is released, you can find me." I believe that the three of us together will be able to take him down. Just in case, you can prepare some lime, poison and the like, this kind of hand over to Xia Hongying, he is good at it. ”
"Okay, watch out for yourself." After a moment he returned: "Wearing this." ”
