Chapter 423: Investigation of the case

When the guests dispersed, it was already dinner time, and after dinner, Liu Yuanwai and his sons and family members went to the living room to talk about family life. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

At this moment, the housekeeper Liu Zhong stood outside the door respectfully with a frightened face: "Master, my subordinate has something I want to report to the master." ”

Liu Yuanwai was disturbed by the strong family atmosphere, and said unhappily in his heart: "What's the matter, come in and talk about it!" ”

After Liu Zhong entered the door, he looked a little hesitant.

"If you want to say it, you can say it, and there are no outsiders here!" Liu Yuanwai was a little annoyed and amplified his voice.

"Yes! Sir, I want to talk about that incident this morning! Liu Zhong finally spoke.

"Morning? What's up? Liu Yuanwai asked with some puzzlement.

"That's it...... That beggar thing! Liu Zhong cautiously reminded.

Liu Yuanwai knew that Liu Zhong had been on the rivers and lakes for a few days when he was young, and he knew a lot about the things on the road, and when he heard the words, he faintly noticed that the beggar in the morning was not simple, but he couldn't guess that he didn't know anything, so he turned his inquiring eyes to Liu Zhong.

"Master, that's the case......" Liu Zhong explained to Liu Yuanwai.

It turned out that when Liu Zhong was young, when he was a hired worker in a large family, it happened that the family also offended an old beggar. When the old beggar left, he did exactly the same thing as the beggar this morning. At first, the old beggar was laughed at as if he were a fool. But it didn't take long for the sons of that family to die mysteriously one after another for no apparent reason. Later, I invited a Taoist priest to inquire, only to learn that the kind of beggars are known for their viciousness in the rivers and lakes, and they are known as "shouting flowers", which will make a kind of witchcraft, and those who are tricked will definitely cut off their children and grandchildren, and the whole family will die!

Hearing Liu Zhong say this, Liu Yuan shuddered coldly. Although he has heard a lot of such crooked things, he has never seen them. As the saying goes, seeing is believing, and after Liu Yuanwai came to his senses, he frowned and still didn't believe it.

Liu Yuanwai was a person who had read after all, and he thought for a moment and said, "Okay, Liu Zhong, you go and invite a few Taoist priests to exorcise evil spirits!" ”

When Liu Zhong heard that he was going to invite a Taoist priest, he shook his head again and again and said, "Master! I can't do it, I can't do it! This sorcery can only be broken by the beggar himself. If you invite a Taoist priest, it will increase unabated! ”

Liu Yuanwai saw that Liu Zhong was scared into that appearance by a stinky beggar, and he couldn't help but feel funny: "Hmph! Just a beggar, forgive him for not being able to play any tricks! ”

Anyway, Liu Zhong also had good intentions, and Liu Yuanwai immediately said perfunctorily: "Okay, you will send someone to find the beggar tomorrow!" ”

After speaking, Liu Yuanwai ignored Liu Zhong and continued to talk to his children.

However, Liu Zhong's remarks just now made everyone in the room feel heavy in their hearts, and they had long lost their previous cheerfulness.

Seeing this, Liu Yuanwai had no choice but to say stupidly: "It's been a tired day, let's all go back and rest!" ”

Early the next morning, just as Liu Yuanwai was reading in his study, the family suddenly stumbled in, his face pale, and he seemed to be in some kind of extreme fright.

When the family saw Liu Yuanwai, he sat down on the ground. Panting and frightened, he said incoherently: "Old ...... Sir, big ...... The eldest young master, he ...... He ......"

"What's so urgent? It doesn't hurt to get up and talk slowly. As he spoke, Liu Yuanwai closed the book together.

"Big ...... Gentleman...... Die...... Dead! After some tossing, the few words stuck in Jia Ding's throat finally erupted like fire and flew straight to Liu Yuanwai's ears.

"What...... What ......" Liu Yuanwai was so shocked that he took a few steps back, didn't hold it, and sat down on the chair with his ass......

……

After asking about the situation, Zheng Muye asked a cadre of the Liu family to leave, and then began to analyze the case with the people who came with him.

First of all, Zheng Muye asked Qi Zuo, "What's the situation?" ”

He reported: "The mouth and eyes of the corpse of the eldest prince Liu are open, the hair is wide or messy, and the hands are slightly clenched. Through the ugly wound, the two ends are small and small, and there is no starting hand, and the weight of the hand is closed, which can be seen that it is a knife wound. And it is a fatal blow, a knife down, it is already a stab to the heart. ”

Zhang Bao'er and Ji Wen were standing in the corner of the room, listening to the words, the two of them kept whispering, as if they were communicating something.

Zheng Muye looked at Guan Shiqi again: "Guan Catch quickly, what do you think about this matter?" ”

It can be seen that Zheng Muye still relies on Guan Shiqi quite a lot.

Guan Shiqi said cautiously: "My lord, according to the situation, my subordinates judged that Mr. Liu was killed, and the murderer still needs to be carefully investigated!" ”

Zhang Bao'er and Ji Wen began to mumble again.

Zheng Muye's eyes were sharp, and when he saw Zhang Bao'er and Ji Wen talking from time to time, he couldn't help but ask: "Zhang Zhukuai, do you have an idea about the solution of this case?" ”

"I haven't thought about it yet, but I can see something strange!" Zhang Baoer said unhurriedly.

"Oh?" Guan Shiqi looked at Zhang Bao'er unexpectedly: "Zhang Zhukuai, what do you see?" Tell me about it! ”

"First of all, I can conclude that Mr. Liu was killed by an acquaintance!" Zhang Bao'er pondered.

"Acquaintances?" Guan Shiqi was stunned.

"Zhang Zhukuai, how did you find out?" Zheng Muye asked strangely.

"Liu Yuanwai's family is a big business, there are dozens of people up and down, and when I came in just now, I found that there were a lot of houses in Liu's house. If an outsider commits a murder, it is impossible to easily find the house of the eldest young master of the Liu family, kill him and leave quietly without being discovered, which only an acquaintance can do? ”

Zheng Muye and Guan Shiqi couldn't help but nod when they heard this.

"Secondly, the murderer must have martial arts or great strength. The eldest son of the Liu family is in the prime of life, how can someone not resist and call for help? Unless he was restrained by the murderer's move, he couldn't resist and call for help. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Baoer said to Zheng Muye: "Since they are acquaintances and know martial arts, adults can check whether there are people in the Liu family who know martial arts?" ”

Zheng Muye happily agreed: "It's simple, I'll call Liu Yuanwai here, and I'll know as soon as I ask!" ”

Zhang Bao'er hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Lord County Order, don't ask!" ”

"Why is that?" Zheng Muye was puzzled.

"Not to mention that I'm just guessing, there is no evidence, if Liu Yuanwai investigates, it will inevitably make the Liu family panic, and they may not be able to catch the murderer. What's more, I still have an intuition that the ultimate goal of the murderer is Liu Yuanwai himself! ”

"What? Liu Yuanwai? Listening to Zhang Baoer's words, everyone felt cool.

"I haven't finished what I said just now, I don't think the murderer killed the eldest young master for the sake of committing murder, he did it to prove something, otherwise why did he deliberately make these tragic things on the corpse after killing someone?"

"Oh?" Zheng Muye asked, "Zhang Zhukuai, can you explain in detail?" ”
