"Great, Miss, I've finally bought it all!" Zhenqing smiled.

"Let the young lady break the bill again." Zhenwan thought that Miss had to buy beautiful fabrics for them, but she didn't buy anything, so she was embarrassed.

"If only you liked it." Seeing them so happy, Yu Tear Hong also relaxed, "I heard that Su Jinlou has a few new dishes recently, let's go try them." ”

"Good!" As long as the young lady is happy, the two girls will be satisfied.

"Three guest officers upstairs, please!" The shopkeeper was in a particularly good mood today, and his voice was much brighter than usual.

"I'm tired." The three of them also happily followed the shopkeeper upstairs.

As soon as I went upstairs, I saw a mess of cups and plates.

I saw Shui Jiao and Qianlong sitting in a delicious food package, with many empty plates around them, and more of them were placed next to them after only a few bites.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"Huh? Don't you mind ......" Seeing Yu Tear Rainbow's surprised expressions, Shui Jiao hurriedly swallowed the food in her mouth and continued, "Miss Yu? ”

Although he recognized the two kind-hearted people he had just met in the cloth workshop, he obviously didn't introduce himself, how did he know that the young lady's surname wouldn't be a villain with ulterior motives, right?

"How do you know that my young lady ......" Zhenqing stepped forward, her tone a little unkind.

"Ah, it's me who is not good." Shui Jiao seemed to know what Zhenqing was thinking, and quickly explained, "Just now I heard the shopkeeper of the cloth shop call you young ladies like this, so I blurted out, and I hope the ladies will understand." ”

"It's okay." Yu Tear Hong looked at Zhenqing and saluted, "My sister is a little anxious, and I hope that my son will forgive her sins." ”

"Miss Yu is serious." Shui Jiao waved his hand, "We ordered a lot of dishes, why don't we sit down and eat together!" ”

"Thank you, childe, we still want to sit by the window and watch the view." Feather Tears declined them.

"Haha, it's okay, then please!" Shui Jiao made a big "please" gesture with a big grin.

This young lady is really reserved.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Yu Tear Rainbow and the others ordered a few delicate snacks, and the three of them talked happily, but in order not to disturb others, the voices were small.

Shui Jiao was eating, occasionally glancing over to take a look, chatting with the hidden dragon while eating, but basically he was talking.

After the meal, they went back, and said goodbye to them politely before leaving.

"My name is Shui ......" Shui Jiao was just about to say, and the Qianlong hit Shui Jiao's head with a menu.

"Didn't you just add vegetables?" Qianlong said coldly.

"Oh, didn't you just talk too much?" Shui Jiao deliberately "ignores the current affairs" and turned against the Qianlong army, looking at the Qianlong as if watching a good show, with an expression of "see how you come back".

Unexpectedly, Qianlong didn't plan to come back at all, and said directly: "Miss Yu is leaving, we won't send it." ”

"Eat slowly, both of you." Knowing that they didn't want to reveal their identities and names, Yu Tear Hong knew the general situation, so he saluted and took his leave.

"Finally, I have a reluctant request." Yu Tear Hong hesitated for a moment, but still opened her mouth.

"It's okay, I'm a very understanding and helpful person!" Shui Jiao didn't forget to boast about himself anywhere, spread his hands, and asked, "What is it?" ”

"It's that if the two of you haven't touched much food, if you don't pack it and take it away, let the shopkeeper take it to the beggars at the intersection." Yu Tear Hong saw that many dishes only ate a few bites, and she didn't want to waste it, but she was very embarrassed to ask for a stranger who only had two sides.

"Miss Yu is kind-hearted, we will do it!" Shui Jiao smiled, "And I am also a good person who is helpful, benevolent, and optimistic!" ”

"So thank you to the two sons, the little girl took her leave." Feather Tear saluted again, this time it was really leaving.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"You say, why is this Miss Yu so kind!" After the feather tear rainbow left, Shui Jiao talked to the hidden dragon while eating, "Why are you stopping me from introducing myself?" Maybe there will be good people and good people in the future, and there will be tears in my eyes! ”

"It's a 'fellow', okay? There's no need to let her know that you're not here to make friends in Suzhou. Qianlong calmly took a sip of tea and complained, "There is no one who says that he is a good person and a bad person all day long." ”

He had already eaten enough, and he had been watching Shui Jiao eat a lot, as if his stomach was not satisfied.

"Oh, we're bad guys." Shui Jiao nodded in agreement, "You said that you are a bad person!" Is it fun to raise the bar with your brother all day? ”

"I'm too lazy to talk to you." Qianlong said coldly, "When you are full of food and drink, hurry up and start working!" ”

"Got it, my Hidden Dragon." Shui Jiao nodded vigorously and took a big gulp.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Hearing that the case had an eyebrow, Bai Qiuchi immediately rushed to the yamen.

"Master Su, Bai Shaoxia, we found a dossier." Ah Shui and Xiaozhou returned with the transcription of the dossier.

"Great! You've worked hard. Su Can took the file, and Ah Shui and Xiaozhou left consciously.

Bai Qiuchi also looked at it carefully.

What is written in the file is an unsolved case that occurred fifteen years ago, and more than a dozen members of the Li family, a hundred miles away from Mingzhou, were wiped out, and the method was extremely cruel. The more than 20 slaves were drugged and fainted, and when they woke up, they were all dumb, they were almost illiterate, and they could not describe the appearance of the masked murderer at that time.

Coincidentally, the death method of more than a dozen people who died in this case is almost the same as this case, but this time it is more tyrannical and heart-wrenching.

"With such a coincidence, it is very likely that this unsolved case is related to our case." Bai Qiuchi said in a deep voice.

"It's true that the details of the case file will not be released by the government, so only those who were present at the time know how the deceased died." After reading the dossier, Su Can raised his head and said to Bai Qiuchi.

"So, one of these slaves, avenging his master's family?" Bai Qiuchi thought for a while and said.

"It's also possible to ......," Su said.

"It's the same murderer." The two spoke in unison.

"I will immediately send men to find these slaves." Su Can looked at the list of domestic slaves at that time and said, "It's just that after so many years, I don't know if I can still find it." ”

"As long as we can find a few, maybe there will be some clues." Bai Qiuchi said, "Also, wasn't the Li family's social relationship investigated at that time?" ”

"According to the records in the dossier, the Li family is a big family, and there are many social relationships in business, although the Li family has a good reputation, but it is inevitable that some people will be jealous."

"But it's really inhumane to kill a family of people just because of jealousy, I hope this case will be solved as soon as possible, and there will be no more victims."

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

The winter rain is dripping and the cold is pressing.

Almost all the people in the yamen were sent out, and everyone was busy.

This major case was also taken seriously, and some nearby government offices also received documents for assistance.

There has also been progress on the symbol of the water droplet.

Su Can and Bai Qiuchi made a special trip to Suzhou to check the physical evidence preserved at that time, and found that there were some symbols on the Li family's business record book, and some of them had water drops in front of their names.

"What is the murderer telling us?" Su Can and Bai Qiuchi thought about it, and combed through all the clues together.

"Master Su, Bai Shaoxia." Ah Rong knocked on the door.

"Come in."

"Master Su, Bai Shaoxia, this is the list of people with water drops that can still be found, this is the list of people who can no longer be found or who have died. Yang Zhutou and Kong Zhutou have already taken people to investigate. ”

"Okay."

"There were 27 domestic slaves in the Li family, and because they were all dumb and in poor health due to poisoning, no one was willing to recruit them, so the government at that time arranged for them to be scattered in several shelters to help." Ah Rong paused and said, "More than ten years have passed, eleven people have died, and eight others have returned to their hometowns, and the rest have been brought by Ah Shui to inquire." It's a pity that they can't speak, and I don't know if they can get any valuable clues. ”

"I have already instructed Ah Shui to ask them to use the 'yes or no' selection method, and the questions have all been set up, so there shouldn't be much of a problem." Su Can sighed, "It's just that I want to arouse their sadness again, alas......"

Master Su is such a good person! Ah Rong sighed in his heart.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

When the people sent back to report, it can basically be judged.

The reports of the two headhunters show that many of the people who have business dealings with the Li family have taken over the business to their children, and many of them have not done business later, and there are three who have disappeared.

After re-investigation, it was found that the person who had completely disappeared from the household registration was a family surnamed Chang.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

According to Ah Shui's return, the servants who still have memories basically answered that there was not much difference.

They basically remember that the murderer at that time was a masked man, extremely vicious, and he did not even spare the child. As for who the murderer is, they don't know, in fact, some people have asked them many questions, and the person who asked the question is the illegitimate son of Master Li.

This child was born to Master Li and a maid, and Master Li liked this maid, but the family did not agree before, so he had to marry other women. Although this child cannot be included in the family tree, but follows his mother's surname as a slave, Master Li still loves this child very much.

The child was born very smart and sensible, there was no threat, and after Mrs. heard the truth, she did not do anything hurtful, and the children of Mr. Li's brothers and sisters and Mrs. Li also got along well with him, and the other domestic servants also respected him very much. Except for one identity that can't be disclosed, he is still quite happy.

Until that day, the vicious murderer broke into his house and killed his beloved family one by one, because he lived with other slaves and dressed plainly, and he survived, but was poisoned and dumb.

The case has not progressed for a long time, and the teenager at the time, without waiting for a good rest, carried out his own investigation, he must have investigated something, so he will take revenge himself.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"If all this is true, then it is very likely that the master of the Zhang family is the murderer of the Li family's murder case back then." Su Can analyzed, "That is, the Chang family, who disappeared, changed their surname and came to Chengtang Village." Live in this small, remote village. ”

"The truth is gradually emerging, so how can we get the killer to show up?" Bai Qiuchi asked.

"Since the murderer has given us a hint that he also wants us to find out the truth, maybe he is about to show up." Su Can looked out the window.

This light rain has not yet meant to stop, and the wind drifts in with the rain stars, bringing a chill.

It seems that the rain will only stop when everything is wronged, right?
