Chapter 47: Determination to Investigate Cases and Eliminate Hidden Dangers
"Is this true? Already determined? In Ma's study, Ma Zhiyuan sat in front of the desk and looked at Steward Zhang, who was standing respectfully below, and asked.
"It's true, it was Zhao En's wife who said it herself. The villain was afraid that something would go wrong and asked people to go to General Town to inquire, this is indeed the case, Liu Xin'er is dead, Liu Kui is crazy, Lin Mo helped the Liu family deal with these things, and today I saw Lin Mo making a tablet for Liu Xin'er. ”
Ma Zhiyuan frowned, "Let's talk about this matter to Ruoya and his eldest brother." ”
After Steward Zhang retreated, Ma Zhiyuan looked at the inkstone on the table and fell into deep thought,
"What are you going to do next?"
Steward Zhang told Ma Ruoya about this, and Ma Ruoyan fainted on the spot due to overstimulation, and Ma Ruowen was also very surprised.
When Ma Ruoya woke up, she was going to General Town, and Ma Zhiyuan asked Ma Ruowen to accompany Liu Xin'er early the next morning.
In this way, the next day, the two hurried to the general town, and there was a white silk hanging on the door of Liu's house, and white lanterns were hanging at the two corners of the door.
Ma Ruoya saw that her heart had sunk to the bottom, and then Ma Ruoya and Ma Ruowen went straight to Lin Mo's house, and saw a figure sitting at the door of Lin Mo's house from a distance, and when she got closer, she saw that it was Liu Kui.
Ma Ruoya hurriedly stepped forward and asked urgently: "Uncle Liu, I'm Ruoya, what's wrong with Xin'er?"
Liu Kui glanced at Ma Ruoya, didn't say a word, looked straight into the distance, and didn't hear what Ma Ruoyan said.
At this time, Lin Mo also heard the sound and walked out, seeing that Ma Ruoya and the two hurriedly stepped forward to make a move, Ma Ruoyan directly interrupted and asked: "What the hell is going on with Lin Mo, why is Xin'er sudden, just ......"
Tears rolled in his eyes as he spoke.
Lin Mo said with a sad face: "This is also a sudden, a few of us didn't notice it that night, and we didn't know that Xin'er was leaving like this, and when we found out, Xin'er was already cold and breathless, and she had no skills to return to the sky." Uncle Liu couldn't stand this blow either, and went crazy all of a sudden. ”
After speaking, he touched his tears, Liu Kui seemed to cooperate with Lin Mo, and looked at everyone stupidly and laughed.
Ma Ruoyan didn't believe it originally, but when she saw it, she had to believe that Liu Xin'er was really dead. Ma Ruoyan couldn't withstand this blow and almost didn't stand firm, so Ma Ruowen hurriedly helped Ma Ruoyan.
"Lin Mo, take me to Xin'er's cemetery."
Ma Ruoyan said weakly, Lin Mo was a little unbearable but nodded randomly and heavily, and went over with the two of them. Along the way, Ma Ruoya kept reminding herself to persevere, not to be sad, not to cry, Xin'er would be unhappy when she saw it.
But when Ma Ruoya really arrived at Xin'er's tomb and looked at Liu Xin'er's tombstone, tears flowed uncontrollably, Ma Ruoya stepped forward and hugged the tombstone to tell her reluctance to Liu Xin'er and her gratitude for her company over the years.
Lin Mo looked touched by the emotions of the two. Ma Ruowen seemed relatively calm, but his eyes kept scanning Liu Xin'er's tomb.
"This tomb is too simple, why don't you build a better tomb for Xin'er again, so that Xin'er can live more comfortably."
Ma Ruoya nodded when she heard this, this tomb is too simple, just a mound of dirt and a tombstone, and a better grave should be built for Xin'er.
Lin Mo was prepared, and hurriedly explained: "This tomb was repaired by me, according to the rules, the tomb must be repaired by the family members, otherwise the deceased cannot be reincarnated, but Uncle Liu is already like that, and the relatives at home are not there, and the coffin cannot be parked outside all the time, so I, an outsider, have to simply put the coffin into the soil first, and then repair it again after Uncle Liu is sober, if it is repaired now, it will be troublesome to repair it in the future, and it will disturb Xin'er to rest, so this is why it is so simple." ”
Ma Ruoyan nodded when she heard this, but Ma Ruowen was a little skeptical, but she didn't say it directly. Lin Mo said that Liu Kui was just a temporary fool and would recover, so let Ma Ruoya not worry.
In this way, Lin Mo fooled Ma Ruoya and the others, and Ma Ruoyan and the others returned to Lin Mo's house and talked with Liu Kui for a while, but Liu Kui did not react at all, Ma Ruoya had no choice but to leave a large sum of money for Lin Mo, and asked him to take good care of Liu Kui and come to see him in a few days.
Lin Mo had no choice but to accept the money, and then send the two back to General Town. Grandpa is not at home today, so there are only two people, Lin Mo and Liu Kui.
Liu Kui asked, "Second Miss, they are not suspicious, right?" ”
"There shouldn't be, but just in case, Uncle Liu, you will often go to Xin'er's tomb in the future, don't be taken advantage of by ulterior motives and discover our secret."
"yes, okay, I got it."
"Uncle Liu, aren't you curious why I even lied to the second lady?"
Liu Kui smiled faintly and said, "From the very beginning to now, Xiao Mo, isn't everything you are busy doing to hide from them?" ”
Lin Mo looked at Liu Kui in surprise, he really couldn't hide it, after all, he was not a fool, he was actually trying to hide it from the Ma family from the beginning, after all, all this that happened to Xin'er was inextricably linked with the Ma family, not so much to hide from others, but from the Ma family.
"Uncle Liu, you know everything?"
Liu Kui shook his head, "I don't know exactly what happened, but I believe you did it for a reason." ”
In this way, the two reached a tacit understanding and tacitly understood each other. Ma Ruoya and Ma Ruowen returned to Qiannan, Ma Ruoyan returned to the boudoir and secretly felt sad, and Ma Ruowen briefly introduced the situation to his father and left the room.
That night, in a room in the Ma Mansion, two people talked, "Are you sure it's really dead?" Another said, "It's supposed to be dead, and it doesn't look like a fake." ”
"Well, let's stop here, don't make any trouble."
"yes, got it."
On the other end, Lin Mo stayed up all night, thinking about where to start investigating this matter and finding out the truth of the matter.
Early the next morning, Lin Mo was awakened by the knock on the door in a daze, and Lin Mo opened the door to see that it was Sister-in-law Zhao and Xiaoheng's mother and son.
Seeing that Lin Mo was puzzled, Sister-in-law Zhao explained: "I really can't rest assured that I can't help you in Chennan, there have been too many things recently, and it has hit you too hard, and Uncle Liu has become like this again, and someone else needs to take care of the restaurant, so I'm here to help take care of it and reduce your burden." ”
Lin Mo nodded after listening, after all, what Sister-in-law Zhao said was right, now she is really a little lacking in skills, and she has to have someone to help share it. As for Zhao Heng, because the school was on holiday, he took the opportunity to beg Sister-in-law Zhao to bring him over to see Lin Mo.
After Sister-in-law Zhao finished speaking, she went to work in the restaurant, Lin Mo had no choice but to take Zhao Heng and take her around the general town, Zhao Heng saw that Lin Mo had been preoccupied, and asked cautiously: "Uncle Lin, are you worried about Aunt Xin'er?" ”
Lin Mo was stunned, "How did you know?" ”
"Didn't Miss Lin Xin'er pass away?"
Lin Mo was shocked, "Xiao Heng, who told you this?" ”
Zhao Heng shook his head and explained: "This is just my speculation, I see that Uncle Lin is worried, he must have encountered some troubles, and what has annoyed Uncle Lin recently is only the matter of Miss Xin'er, but Miss Xin'er has passed away, Uncle Lin will only be sad at most, but now he is frowning, plus Miss Xin'er died suddenly, and my mother has been deliberately spreading the news that Miss Xin'er is dead, I feel strange." So I guessed that Miss Xin'er didn't die. ”
Zhao Heng looked at Lin Mo with a shocked face and continued: "I just guessed blindly, but now I can be sure"
Lin Mo listened and looked at Zhao Heng with a look of disbelief, this child who was only less than ten years old. Such a meticulous thinking is not something that a normal ten-year-old child can have, and Lin Mo once wondered if he had also crossed over, or read the script.
Lin Mo asked, "Have you read the script?" Seeing Zhao Heng's puzzled face, "Uncle Lin, what is the script?"
Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Mo thought about it, after all, he was a child, and he thought too much.
Lin Meng said sincerely: "Xiao Heng must not say this to others, you know?" ”
"Well, Uncle Liu, I know, I'll keep my mouth shut."
"What do you think I should do now, little Heng??"
"Since Uncle Lin doesn't want others to know that Miss Xin'er is still alive, there must be a reason not to let others know, and now we should solve this problem first."
Lin Mo listened, didn't speak, and took a branch and drew on the ground. After a while, a huge tree-like diagram appeared, which intricately matched the relationships of the Ma family that Lin Mo knew.
Lin Mo looked at it and thought for a long time, Zhao Heng seemed to understand it, after all, although he was very smart, he was still a child.
Lin Mo patiently explained: "This is a tree-like diagram, you don't look like a big tree when you look combined, with this method, it is easy to sort out the relationship after encountering problems." ”
"Then Uncle Lin is going to find the eldest young master and the second miss? Don't they want to see Miss Xin'er? Zhao Heng pointed to the two people on the tree on the ground who had Liu Xin'er's name connected and said.
Lin Mo shook his head, "Xiao Heng, you still don't understand, it's not right to go to them now, going there will only make the problem more and more complicated." Lin Mo continued,
"I'm going to be a detective now, and I'm going to get to the bottom of everything." Lin Mo said seriously.
"What is a detective" Zhao Heng asked curiously, Lin Mo looked embarrassed.
"Detectives, they are detectives, and they are the ones who catch heads."
"Oh, I'm going to be a detective in the future, so where should Uncle Lin start now?"
Lin Mo looked at the treemap and pointed to a name, "Start looking up from here." ”
Zhao Heng looked at the name and was a little surprised, not understanding what Lin Mo meant.
Lin Mo didn't explain, but took Zhao Heng into the house first, Liu Kui and Grandpa had already gotten up, Grandpa was boxing, and Liu Kui was learning to box. Lin Mo said goodbye to his grandfather and said that he was going out for a few days, and then gave Liu Kui a look and left with Zhao Heng.
Grandpa looked at Lin Mo's distant background and muttered,
"I hope Xiao Mo can be safe this time, you're right, oh, you're stupid now, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know if it's good, there's nothing to worry about, sometimes a sober person is not as comfortable as a fool."
After saying that, he went back to the house, Liu Kui always felt that Lin Mo's grandfather had something to say, but he didn't know what it meant, so he could only continue to pretend to be crazy and stupid according to Lin Mo's intentions.
On the other side, Lin Mo took Zhao Heng back to the restaurant and said that he would take Zhao Heng back to Qiannan, Zhao's sister-in-law was very puzzled but didn't say anything, just told the two to pay attention to safety.
Lin Mo didn't want to take Zhao Heng with him, but Zhao Heng knew too much, and if he didn't take him with him, if he accidentally said something wrong, he would lose all his efforts, and it would bring new dangers to Xin'er. This time, I want to become a detective to find out the Liu Xin'er incident and solve the existing dangers.
