Huaiyuanfang Bridge Falling Case Chapter 31 Strange Boxes
Later, there was no way to hear the sound in the house, and Wei Chang jumped out of the house.
At this time, he saw two people, one in front of the other, carrying a very thick flat burden, this kind of flat burden is not an ordinary flat burden, it is much thicker than the usual one, everyone is used to calling it "double carrying".
Underneath the double carry, hung a large black lacquer box, the lacquer surface was smooth, reflecting the moonlight. If it weren't for the moonlight, I might not be able to see the whole picture of the box.
The two sturdy soldiers had a hard time carrying the box, and the footprints they left were very deep, and the box was at least 300 catties by visual inspection.
The two of them carried the box into a storeroom, which was in the corner of Lin Sen's courtyard, the house was not big, but it was next to the guards. It's the safest place, and there are people waiting all day, but no thief will be blind enough to run here and steal.
The two men put the box down and rubbed their waists, one of them walked back with a wooden pole, and the other shook his head and hurried to follow. Looking at his reluctance, as if complaining that the person in front of him was walking too fast.
This is not difficult to explain, I don't sleep in the middle of the night, but I work here, and I don't do it for myself, of course, there will be some complaints. Like these soldiers who have never fought in a war, if their training is slack, they will hardly suffer any hardships, and they will feel at a loss when they do some work. This kind of thing is not uncommon.
Wei Chang had been hiding in the bushes, watching the two people go back and forth five or six times, one of them was so tired that he couldn't straighten his waist, and the last time he sent the box in, he picked it. Sit there, gasping for air.
The man with the shoulder turned his head, cursed a few words, and left.
The other was still gasping for breath and replied with a few words, but instead of getting up, he fell to the ground.
The two guards at the door ignored him, and he lay down for a full quarter of an hour.
At this time, the two guards felt strange and looked at each other. One of them came over and kicked him. It turned out that he was dead.
Not to mention that the two guards were surprised, even Wei Chang didn't expect this result.
Soon the courtyard became noisy, and one of them, by looking at his clothes, was the head of the group, a ten-captain. He examined the deceased, then strode into the depths of the courtyard to report to Lin Sen.
Soon after, the lights came on, the house opened, and the ten-captain entered.
What he said to Lin Sen, Wei Chang couldn't hear it clearly, but looking at the shadow under the light, Lin Sen behaved very steadily, he said something, and then heard the crisp response of the ten-master: "Oh! ”
Then the ten masters ordered the deceased to be taken away, and it is not known what to do with it in the future.
At this time, it was already sub-time, and Wei Chang looked around.
His gaze landed on an attic, which he hadn't paid attention to at first, as it happened to be in the sentry's line of sight. But now that it looks, it suddenly feels like there's something strange there.
It's so late, how can there be lights?
Suddenly, a figure flashed through the window, and then the man pushed the window open, and Wei Chang saw that it looked very much like Tang Xian.
"Why is he here?"
Wei Chang was stunned for a moment, looked around, looked for an angle, and hid in another place, which was a courtyard closer to Tang Xian's position, and he couldn't go any further, otherwise he would walk into the sight of the guards.
At this time, he could be sure that this person was Tang Xian, carrying a nine-inch fan in his hand, Wei Chang could see at a glance that it was not a simple fan, but a weapon.
This weapon is very evil, the two sides of the fan are made of fine iron, which can be used to resist the opposite sword slash, and when counterattacking, it can not only be used as a weapon, but also can be mixed with hidden weapons in the folds of the fan, this weapon is not available to ordinary people, because its tricks need to be accurately mastered.
It seems that he usually underestimates Tang Xian and thinks he is an ordinary Jin Wuwei.
But what is he here for?
Wei Chang couldn't jump out and talk to him in detail. Just looked at Tang Xian standing silently at the window, looking at Lin Sen's room.
He's looking at Lin Sen?
I heard Qi Qi say that Tang Xian once admitted that he had a relationship with Lin Sen's beautiful daughter-in-law, so he must have come to see Jin Cai'er. However, looking at Jin Cai'er and her husband like this, what does Tang Xian mean?
Does he like it?
This simply does not make sense.
Not long after, Tang Xian closed the window and listened to the footsteps, as if he had gone downstairs.
Wei Chang felt that he should leave here quickly, he deliberately looked at the plaque in this attic, and the black plaque had the words "Listening to the Wind Pavilion" written on it.
In this gloomy place, it is strange to have such an elegant name. But what is this attic for?
Wei Chang didn't think about it anymore, and returned the same way to Fenghuan Inn. As soon as he came back, he saw Qi Qi sitting in the house.
She had fallen asleep on her stomach on the table, and the candle had burned out.
It seems that she has been waiting here for a long time.
"Whew!" Wei Chang exhaled, and suddenly said with a wry smile: "It's not appropriate to be a good daughter, you have to suffer this crime." I don't know what you think. ”
Qi Qi woke up, rubbed his eyes and said, "Why did you come back, what did you do?" ”
Wei Chang laughed evilly and said, "I've gone to Pingkangfang." ”
"Don't be poor."
"I'm going to Lin Sen." Wei Chang sat down and washed his feet, but it was too late at night, and he didn't want to disturb the shopkeeper's rest.
"How did you get in?" Qi Qi turned around and looked at the door, which was still closed from the inside.
"I jumped in through the window." Wei Chang took off his shoes and threw them aside.
"This is the second floor!" Qi Qi said.
"The building of their inn is so low, I think you can jump on it." Wei Chang took off his other shoe.
"I'm convinced." Qi Qi stood up and said, "What did you find?" ”
"I didn't find any clues of much value." Wei Chang smiled evilly and said, "But I saw Lin Sen, that big black face is not worthy of Jin Cai'er at all." Maybe he's uglier than me, don't you think? ”
Qi Qi sneered: "You still have a little self-knowledge. ”
"Hmph." Wei Chang snorted lightly and said, "I also saw a person, I think, if I say what he is doing, it will definitely make you unhappy." ”
"Just say it. Nothing makes me unhappy. Qi Qi had a cold face.
"Tang Xian is also there."
Qi Qi was shocked: "What is he doing there?" ”
"He was standing in an attic in the asylum, looking up at Lin Sen's mansion, about ten feet away, and I think he could see what Lin Sen and his wife were doing in the light." Wei Chang said vaguely.
Qi Qi understood, and suddenly blushed: "Is there anything else besides these?" ”
"I noticed that the fan in his hand was not ordinary. Have you seen it? Wei Chang said.
"His fan?" Qi Qi thought for a while: "Usually he doesn't hold a fan. ”
"Looks like he's going to have to do something tonight." Wei Chang rubbed his forehead and said, "But we can't tell what he's going to do at all." ”
"Could it be against you?" Qi Qi asked.
Wei Chang suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "Did anyone tell you anything, why did you suddenly change your opinion." Didn't you always feel like I was framing him? ”
"I didn't say anything, I just thought about it." Qi Qi looked a little discouraged, she was not a girl who gave in easily.
"What did you do when you went back?"
"Didn't do anything, oh yes, Li Xian said, he has already gotten the money. But he had a headache now. Qi Qi said with a low emotion.
"Li Xian?" Wei Chang's face tightened, "He wants to do business with me, but I don't have the money to join him." He insisted that I sell my family's house, wasn't that whimsical? Even if I wanted to sell, my mom and dad wouldn't agree. ”
"Do you still have a house in Chang'an City?"
"Yongyang Fang." Wei Chang said casually, then suddenly turned his head and said, "Hey? What do you mean, who do you look down on? ”
Qi Qi suddenly couldn't help laughing, waved his hand and said, "I didn't say I looked down on you." ”
"Cut." Wei Chang cut and sorted out his socks: "That's all, hurry up and go to sleep, and continue to investigate the case tomorrow." ”
"Do you have any more clues? I feel like all the clues are broken. Qi Qi said dejectedly.
"I think as long as we keep an eye on Lin Sen, everything is possible. Even if the flyover case is almost over, I have a hunch that Lin Sen will have a big case here. Wei Chang whispered.
Qi Qi suddenly came to his senses: "You mean Broken Intestine Grass, do you have evidence, but don't forget, falsely accusing the court officials is not a small crime." ”
Wei Chang rubbed his feet and said, "Tang Su is such an honest person, you say, who will provide his Broken Intestine Grass?" ”
"Are you suspicious of Tang Xian?"
"So where will Tang Xian get the Broken Intestine Grass?" Wei Chang continued to ask.
"You said just now that Tang Xian was there for Lin Sen, and he was able to walk into the attic. In other words, his relationship with Lin Sen is not ordinary. ”
"Yes, this further confirms that Lin Sen is buying and selling Broken Intestine Grass." Wei Chang said.
"And what about the man who assassinated you? You're not going to look it up? Qi Qi said.
"I'm just a small character, someone else wants to kill me, for what?" Wei Chang lay down and said: "I don't think this matter will last long, when their story is over, they get what they want, maybe they will leave Chang'an." At that time, as long as I don't interfere with their good deeds, they won't hunt me down anymore. ”
"That is, you also gave up."
"Of course I didn't give up."
"You've always been suspicious of Tang Xian."
"So to speak." Wei Chang was a little sleepy: "I said Miss Qi Qi, you don't plan to stay in my house for a night, do you?" ”
"Maybe that's really the case."
"What's the situation?"
"They don't have any other rooms in the store."
Wei Chang sat up suddenly: "Then here is for you to sleep." ”
"No, I'll just sleep on the table for the night."
"You're a generous man. But if someone sees it, gossip. ”
"Gossip between the two of us? How can it be? Qi Qi shrugged: "When that kind of gossip spreads, I don't even bother to explain." I don't think people like to wear this kind of impossible gossip. ”
"Okay, that's what you said."
