Huaiyuanfang Bridge Falling Case Chapter 32 Tangled
"I haven't seen Jin Cai'er for three days, and I even suspect that she has been killed by Lin Sen now."
Wei Chang hid in Lin Sen's house for three nights, and as soon as he returned to the inn, he told Qi Qi about it. "What's going on over there in Qin Xiangxi, is there any situation?"
"Qin Xiangxi has always been at home and looks very peaceful." Qi Qi said: "However, Lin Sen has been going to her more and more frequently recently. That's a fact. ”
"Do you think that makes sense?"
"From Qin Xiangxi's side, I don't see anything unreasonable." Qi Qi insisted that Qin Xiangxi had no possibility of cheating, "I have always thought that she is not that kind of woman, even if Lin Sen does not seem to have a simple purpose." ”
"What about Tang Xian?" Wei Chang said with a frown.
"Tang Xian is just Qin Xiangxi's brother-in-law, not Qin Xiangxi's father-in-law." Qi Qi said: "So he has no right to manage Qin Xiangxi." As the saying goes, the head is married to her parents, and then she is married to herself, now Qin Xiangxi is free, and she doesn't need to be bound by anyone. ”
"That being said, it's still easy to be poked in the back." Wei Chang lowered his head and said, "I also know that this is not fair to you women. But the way the world is like this, and no one can help it. Therefore, Qin Xiangxi must be cautious in the next step. If her future husband treats her badly, then she has no room for manoeuvre at all. ”
"Yes, if she stays in the Tang family now with peace of mind, then her son is the heir of this family after all, and she is still the master here." Qi Qi didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, "Sun Xinzi is still investigating, but the problem is getting more and more serious." ”
"Isn't there such a person at all?"
"Yes, none of them are on the right track."
Wei Chang's brows furrowed even tighter: "We can't just end the investigation, if that's the case, it will become the laughing stock of the entire Bad People Academy." And there could be even worse. ”
"What's the situation?"
"That is, someone is waiting for an opportunity to attack the bad guy academy, and Shi Jinchong will feel embarrassed when the time comes."
"So how do you get started now?"
"Staring at Lin Sen." Wei Chang said: "Although his affairs may not be related to me, it is very likely that there are other major cases related to him." As long as a big case is solved, it will be good for us. ”
"I see what you mean." Qi Qi lowered his head, looking a little depressed.
"We have analyzed that when Tang Su died, the timing of Lin Sen's appearance was too coincidental." Wei Chang said: "And he ran to Tang Su's study, looked at it for a long time, and left a large number of footprints on the ground. After he did this, I couldn't see the footprints of others anymore. Because the footprints on the ground were basically covered, and when I went in, I could only see where the moonlight went. ”
"You still seem to have discovered something. Is that right? Qi Qi smiled bitterly: "But I still think it's impossible, it's impossible for the killer to walk in front of the three of us, but we can't see it." You know that we weren't sitting side by side, we were sitting face to face, in other words, our eyes were added together, and there was no blind spot. ”
"What if the killer didn't leave at all?" Wei Chang suddenly asked rhetorically.
"Oh, I ignored that." Qi Qi said in shock: "But ......, I still feel that I can't, the total is such a big place, could it be that he was hanging on the roof of the shed at that time?" Oh, we didn't look at the roof at the time. ”
"The killer can't be that stupid," Wei Chang said, "I mean, what if the killer is simply sitting across from you?" ”
"What?" Qi Qi shook his head in disbelief: "That's impossible!" ”
"Nothing is impossible." Wei Chang thought for a while and said, "You think about the whole process again, first of all, how did you find out that Tang Su died. ”
"Tang Su committed suicide, the sound he made after he fell."
"Are you sure that is the sound that Tang Su made when he fell? When a person commits suicide, does he stab himself first and then pass out completely unconscious? Do you think that people will die all at once? ”
"Then what do you mean ......"
"You've only seen a few dead people, and I've seen too many dead people on the battlefield. Unless there is a blow to the head, no one dies all at once. Even if the neck is cut, the person does not die all at once. Wei Chang frowned and said, "You may have been deceived by that voice." ”
Qi Qi recalled: "But I can't think of any other possibility to make a sound besides Tang Su falling to the ground." I've seen all the decorations in that room, teacups, books, etc., all of them are well placed, and he is the only one on the floor. ”
"Is the blood stain obvious? Are there any signs of struggle? ”
"It's all said to be suicide."
"Even if you commit suicide, you have to struggle in the end because he will feel bad. Did you know that there are many people who choose to cut their wrists, but then they don't want to die and end up saving themselves. This kind of thing has happened a lot. Wei Chang smiled bitterly and said, "So, I think the person who killed Tang Su was Tang Xian or Qin Xiangxi, and it was possible that the two of them conspired." ”
"That can't be!" Qi Qi couldn't believe her ears.
"Nothing is impossible." Wei Chang straightened his clothes and said, "Okay, I'm going to continue to stare at Lin Sen today, and I also want you to stare at Qin Xiangxi." ”
"I can't go to their house anymore. Now Qin Xiangxi cried when she saw me, and I also felt that her attitude towards me was not as good as before. Qi Qi said complainingly.
"Maybe someone is gossiping."
"Actually, I know if you don't say it." Qi Qi stood up: "I am now regarded as a mourning star, and it was when I went to be a guest that their family died." Actually, I think I'm unlucky. If I didn't go, Tang Su would have died, so I happened to go that day. Oh, I seem to have forgotten why I had to go to their house that day. Did you let me go? ”
"Alright, don't complain, my daughter. You'll assume that I let you go, and then I'll be the mourner. Wei Chang shrugged.
……
If Jin Cai'er doesn't come back today, Wei Chang will want to take the next step.
He planned to catch Kim Chae-a's personal maid and ask about the situation. Her maid was very greedy for money, which was a very good disadvantage for Wei Chang. As long as she gives enough money, she will keep her mouth shut. Of course, there are also some means here – such as intimidation.
And Wei Chang didn't expect this maid to keep secrets for a lifetime, and he didn't need her to keep it for a lifetime.
As long as the maid doesn't talk nonsense until he solves the case.
However, today, not only Jin Cai'er was not at home, but Lin Sen and the maid were not at home, and Wei Chang was sitting in the bushes, feeling that he couldn't hold on anymore. In such a small place, ordinary people would feel unbearable for a quarter of an hour, and he has been staying for several days in a row, and he has been staying for two hours at a time.
……
Qi Qi thought about it and went to the Tang Mansion.
In fact, Qin Xiangxi's attitude towards her has not changed, the reason why she seemed cold a few days ago is entirely because her husband has just died, and her mood is at its lowest stage, who can maintain politeness all day?
When Qi Qi came to the Tang Mansion today, he saw that Qin Xiangxi's mood had recovered a lot, and he seemed very enthusiastic.
Qi Qi is coming to the door more and more often, which is definitely a good thing for her.
Because if her son Tang Yao wants to inherit the title in the future, she also needs a friend who is an official to give the emperor a lesson, otherwise those bastards in the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Officials will be really inefficient. It is not uncommon for children to inherit the title and they can delay it until three years later.
And the emperor often does not punish them for their procrastination, but also praises them and says: Do things seriously.
This is really strange, obviously procrastinating, why are you still serious?
These questions are the issues that Qin Xiangxi is most concerned about now, and she and Qi Qi have been chatting about them for a long time.
In the end, Qi Qi promised Qin Xiangxi that she would ask her uncle to help her do this, and Qin Xiangxi laughed with tears in her eyes. She was really touched, and the woman really didn't look like a bad woman. She is a typical aristocratic woman, and she is also the head of a declining aristocracy.
She is actually quite difficult, she has been carrying this family, although she has no income, but her psychological pressure is not small at all.
She had to attend some aristocratic gatherings frequently, and her clothes and jewelry were not very numerous, nor were they very expensive, and a woman like her could only be the center of the crowd by virtue of her rhetoric.
In order to get more talking points, she put in no less effort than men who work hard outside.
Now that her husband is gone, and her monthly income is gone, how she can support the family is definitely a difficult problem.
But she doesn't seem bothered by this, maybe she has enough reserves at home? Or did Tang Xian promise her?
Qin Xiangxi sighed and said, "Hey, Tang Xian is not young, he will be thirty in nine months. I don't know what he thinks, but he doesn't hurry up and find a good girl to marry. Now that his eldest brother is dead, my sister-in-law, sometimes it's not easy to talk about him. In fact, we have already prepared a bride price for him, and it has been kept in the warehouse. Hey, when I think about it, I still remember that there are some good things in it, I might as well take them out and give them to you. ”
Qi Qi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "That's for the future bride, how can I accept it." ”
"If there is anything, I will ask the servant to bring it later, and you can take a look at it, and take it if you like. We'll just buy something else to make it up. Qin Xiangxi's eyes were always full of temptation.
Obviously, she is looking at her words and feelings, just to see what kind of attitude Qi Qi has.
If Qi Qi really likes the little uncle, then her time is not much, because in another nine months, Tang Xian must follow the daughter-in-law assigned by the emperor's old son, which is not chosen by the emperor one by one, but a hodgepodge, which is combined at will.
Once the emperor's order is down, who dares to say a word?
No matter who is assigned, fat, handsome, ugly, tall, short and thin, they must also marry back home, this is the royal media!
"Cousin, actually, I came today to ask you a question." Qi Qi suddenly opened the topic.
"Oh, then ask." Qin Xiangxi was quite curious, and at the same time full of expectations.
"Recently, I heard that Lin Sen's little daughter-in-law hasn't been home for a long time, and I don't know what's going on." Qi Qi said with an inquiring look: "Don't you break up with Lin Sen, right?" ”
This is a big news, once it is said, it will inevitably ferment in the circle of noble women, Qin Xiangxi is the most sensitive to this kind of thing, and she has shown unprecedented interest in discussing this issue with Qi Qi.
Obviously, Qin Xiangxi didn't perceive Qi Qi's true purpose, and at this time, Qi Qi had already determined through Qin Xiangxi's performance that Qin Xiangxi and Lin Sen would have nothing to do with each other. - Because Qin Xiangxi's affairs about Lin Sen's family are completely in a lively state of mind, she doesn't care about whether Lin Sen will become single or not.
