XXXIX. Mystery 2

Ah San was wearing a mask, and there was no expression on his face alone, and he looked at the stove in the outhouse, and then at the tattered clothes on the earthen kang.

"The steamed buns cooked in the pot can be eaten by about ten people, and the clothes on the kang seem to be more than 20 people, if you add the sixteen people who died yesterday, it can almost match." Ah San used his years of accumulated experience in handling cases to give a more accurate judgment.

Zhao Xiu laughed out loud after listening to Ah San's conclusion, "Hahaha, I suddenly have a bad premonition. Zhao Xiu couldn't stop laughing, he laughed while sitting on the clay kang.

Ah San looked at Meng Xin with a confused face, although Meng Xin couldn't see Ah San's face, but the expressions of the two were surprisingly similar.

"Hey, do you two dare to make a bet with me?" Zhao Xiu said towards Meng Xin and Ah San.

"Of course, dare" Although the two of them didn't know what Zhao Xiu was thinking, they felt very strange when they saw Zhao Xiu's happy appearance, what happened and they could still laugh?

"As soon as I entered the door, I thought of a fun possibility, I dare to bet with you, the number of steamed buns in the stove outside the house, plus the sixteen people who died yesterday is exactly equal to the number of clothes on the kang, and not a single number is not bad! It's just the same. Hahahaha" The more Zhao Xiu spoke, the more he wanted to laugh, shaking his head while laughing, squinting, and his face was full of confidence.

After listening to Zhao Xiu's words, the two seemed to remember something, stayed where they were, and after thinking for a while, the two of them glanced at each other, and immediately went their separate ways.

"Get out of the way, you all go out first." Meng Xin rushed to the stove in the outhouse, and in just a few steps, he bumped into several demon guards standing in the outhouse. Meng Xin thought they were too obstructive, so he shouted loudly.

Meng Xin lifted the lid of the pot, and there was no heat in the pot at this time, but the moment he lifted the lid of the pot, the water droplets in the lid sprinkled Meng Xin's body, and his lower body was mostly wet.

Meng Xin didn't care about these at all, just counted the steamed buns in the pot carefully. Ah San, who was standing on the earthen kang in the house, also picked up the clothes on the bed, and every time he picked up one, he shouted in his mouth: "Eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen......"

"Twelve, twelve." Meng Xin had already rushed into the inner room, stood in front of Zhao Xiu, and shouted at Ah San: "I have twelve here, what about you?" You haven't counted yet? ”

Ah San heard Meng Xin keep saying "twelve" in his mouth. When Ah San counted to the last piece of clothing, his body suddenly froze there. He was hunched at the waist, his body was convex, and he held a gray cloth robe in his hand, and he was motionless there.

Zhao Xiu didn't have to look back to know what kind of expression he was at this time, Meng Xin opened his mouth slightly, and looked at Ah San slowly straightening up with an uncomfortable expression.

"Twenty-eight! Twenty-eight. ”

Meng Xin finally knew why Zhao Xiu was laughing, Zhao Xiu was laughing at himself, laughing at himself for being busy all morning, just being played with all the time.

Zhao Xiu heard the numbers in the mouths of the two people, sighed and said: "Twelve steamed buns plus the sixteen people who died yesterday are exactly twenty-eight pieces of clothing, tsk, I really admire, there are really people who are more dedicated than me, ah?" Hahahaha"

Zhao Xiu pursed his lips, he didn't know what was wrong, he laughed so hard that he couldn't stop at all.

"Lord Wang, this number is just right, it's not impossible?" Ah San sat on the earthen kang and comforted him with his shabby clothes in his hands.

"No, isn't it impossible? Ah San, you really comfort people, can you believe this yourself? ”

Zhao Xiu finished choking Ah San, and looked at Meng Xin again, as if waiting for him to speak.

Meng Xin also learned from Zhao Xiu and sighed: "This fraud is too fake." ”

"Fake, too fake? Hahaha, when did you still have this sense of humor, ah? You should say that this fake person is so distracted that people can't see the slightest flaw. And it is precisely this that is so reasonable that it cannot be in a reasonable scenario that makes me have to think about it. ”

Ah San looked at the debris on the entire earthen kang and felt that some of them were so natural, there should be something, and there should be nothing, but he himself felt that it was taken for granted, and there was no doubt about it. I couldn't help but be a little afraid of Zhao Xiu in my heart. He doesn't know how many times he has felt this over the years.

Ah San admired it very much, but he had questions. "Lord Wang, since you know that someone has arranged this in advance, but how do you know that the clothes on this earthen kang are the right ones with the steamed buns in the stove, and the number of assassins from yesterday?"

"I don't know much about Zheng Xinshi, but I know that he is not a fool, and if he really wants to lie down somewhere, it will be difficult for us to find him, at least not so quickly. But that doesn't prove much. As soon as I was admitted to the hospital, I knew that Zheng Xinshi would definitely not live here, let alone arrange his subordinates here. ”

Meng Xin's eyes lit up, and he interjected: "Yes, Zheng Xinshi is also a general, he can rent a yard in Nanning, and Zheng Xinshi is extravagant, he will not suffer this when it is not necessary." ”

Zhao Xiu nodded and said, "Yes, you look at the courtyard outside, the courtyard wall has fallen in half, and there is no concealment at all." But all those who do bad things are insecure, and this yard is really not safe for him, and if they really live in this yard, I'm afraid they won't be able to sleep well. As for how the numbers match. ”

Zhao Xiu paused deliberately when he said this, looked at the curious expressions of Meng Xin'a and the three of them, and couldn't help but smile: "When I came in, I came in with questions, so I deliberately paid attention to the number of steamed buns in the pot and the number of clothes on the bed." I don't think there's anything wrong with how much they can set it up, and it's probably a lot more than that. Of course, there is also an element of gambling, which is why I say 'gamble'. Hahaha"

The three people in the room could laugh at Zhao Xiu, and his words made Meng Xin and Ah San disheartened, so that everything in the room became worthless.

"Tsk, it's really uncomfortable to be played, it's so aggrieved. I thought I had found a clue just now, but now everything is fake, and even this yard has been found in vain, alas. Ah San sat on the tattered clothes, lowered his head and sighed.

Zhao Xiu listened to Ah San's last sentence, and suddenly raised his eyebrows and said: "Hey, if you think so, you are very wrong, there are many mysteries in this courtyard." I just looked at it a few times, and now I kind of know what's going on. Zhao Xiu's words made the two of them come to their senses again, and they looked at Zhao Xiu one after another.

"Oh, wait, wait for the blood to come back, I think he's coming back soon, and when he comes back, my idea will be confirmed. Zheng Xinshi, this old boy, is about to be arrested! ”

Zhao Xiu swore and said. The three people in the house sat on the earthen kang, smelling the strange smell in the house, and were in a daze together, waiting for the return of the blood mao. Ah San Mengxin didn't ask Zhao Xiu what his conjecture was, in the eyes of these two people, Zhao Xiu's brain was like the brains of hundreds of people fused together, extremely profound. It's not something that the two of them can understand at all, so they don't bother to ask, they just wait for Zhao Xiu to give an order.

The sound of horses' hooves came from far to near, from the depths of the alley to the ears of the three people, Zhao Xiu opened his eyes, jumped up, and walked out. Meng Xin Ah San followed.

As soon as Zhao Xiu came out of the house, he saw that a person was wearing a mask and wanted him to run. This person's mask is engraved with a black smiling face, the face on the mask is stretching out a long tongue, licking the bright red blood at the corner of his mouth, and there are extremely eye-catching red blood beads in his two smiling eyes, and the whole person looks like a bloodthirsty madman.

Xuemao ran to Zhao Xiu and saluted with his hand: "Lord Wang, I found a mansion along the trace, which is very suspicious, but the security there is too strict, and I am afraid of startling the snake, so I didn't rush in." ”
