Chapter 146: Goodbye Ghosts
The guard's words confirmed Zhao's mother's innocence.
Now, Su Wuming has asked all the people in the Zhao Mansion, except for Deng Qi, Mao Ju, Jiang Ping, Shangguan Bo, and Zhao Tong, who have not had an alibi, and the others have more or less some alibi. Among these people who have alibi certificates, He Yi and Zhao Ya testify as mother and daughter, He Bin and Cao Hua testify as husband and wife, and the alibi of the four of them is somewhat unconvincing.
After thinking about it like this, Su Wuming felt that in addition to the need for a strict investigation of the five people who did not have an alibi, he should not slack off on He Yi's mother and daughter, He Bin and his wife, especially He Yi and the four of them, the four of them have a very close relationship, and it is not impossible to murder people together.
After coming out of Zhao's mother's room, Song Jingtian had already brought someone over, and after he saw Su Wuming, he hurriedly saluted and said, "Master Su, what is the progress of the murder?" ”
Su Wuming shook his head, and after dismissing the rest of the people, he told his investigation again, and after saying this, he asked, "How is the matter of the investigation by Song Zhutou?" ”
Song Jingtian shook his head: "For the time being, I haven't found out Jiang Ping's life experience, I only know that he has just come to Hangzhou not long ago, and where he was before, I'm afraid it will take some time." ”
Su Wuming touched his nose and said, "This is not in a hurry, you can check it slowly, and we can observe him more in the past few days, now that Song Zhutou is here, I am afraid that some things will depend on Song Zhutou!" ”
"Where does Lord Su say, what is the matter, just tell him!"
"Now that the Zhao Mansion has been killed, it is uncertain whether what the people involved said is true or not, so this official wants to ask Song Zhutou to send someone to investigate and confirm the testimony of these people."
After listening to Su Wuming's words, Song Jingtian hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Master Su, don't worry, this matter will be handled here!" ”
After talking with Song Jingtian, Song Jingtian sent someone to clean up the body and assign the investigation task, while Su Wuming and the others went back to the room to rest.
When the night was getting deeper, the cold wind was stronger, and the rain was heavier, Su Wuming was a little sleepless because of the murder of Zhao's mansion, and when he encountered this bleak wind and rain, he couldn't help but arouse some thoughts, therefore, Su Wuming stood in front of the window and looked at the wind and rain outside, the wind and rain knocked on the window lattice, making a popping sound, and the dead leaves in the courtyard fell to the ground, mixed into the mud, and even the wind was difficult to roll up.
Zhao Mansion is in the deep house, on such a rainy night, I don't know what kind of thing is going on.
Wen Wan'er saw that Su Wuming was so worried, and said with a light smile: "Xianggong is worried about this Zhao Mansion murder case?" ”
Su Wuming sighed, closed the window, turned around and sat down, and said: "The Zhao Mansion murder case is quite strange, the dead person is supposed to be a person who should not be killed, but he was killed, I don't know if it was because the murderer killed the wrong person, or the murderer killed him." ”
Nangong Yan sat down next to Su Wuming and said, "The night is long, since you can't sleep, Su Lang, why don't you talk to our sisters about our thoughts on this murder!" ”
Wen Wan'er bowed slightly, expressing her approval, Su Wuming took a cup of tea and took a sip, and said, "Okay, since the two ladies want to hear it, then I'll talk about it, let's talk about He Yi and Zhao Ya's mother and daughter first?" ”
"Is there anything suspicious about the mother and daughter?" Nangong Yan was a little puzzled.
Su Wuming smiled lightly: "Their mother and daughter are naturally very suspicious, remember what Zhao Ya said, she said that she was chatting with her mother in the room, and the content of the chat was that she looked good in that dress, whose girl was engaged to whose son, if you talk about that dress is good-looking, the mother and daughter can still talk about it, but whose girl is married to whose son, this is obviously not suitable for the mother and daughter to talk, and if they really talk, it must be that this mother wants to choose a husband for her woman, so she said this, But is it necessary for He Yi to tell Zhao Ya this? The Zhao family is the richest man in Hangzhou, even if Zhao Ya is not very beautiful, but if Zhao Tong wants to find a wishful husband for his daughter, I am afraid it is still an easy matter. ”
After Su Wuming said this, Nangong Yan nodded slightly, and then said with some excitement: "So, He Yi's mother and daughter are not together at all?" ”
Su Wuming smiled lightly: "It's not necessarily, maybe they are indeed together, but the content of the discussion is different." ”
"If they talk about different things, at least they have an alibi!" Wen Wan'er looked at Su Wuming and said.
Su Wuming nodded: "That's right, so even if I knew that Zhao Ya lied to me, I didn't expose her, she refused to tell the truth, obviously the topic that their mother and daughter talked about should not be outsiders, let's talk about it later." ”
Hearing Su Wuming say this, Nangong Yan asked a little impatiently: "In addition to He Yi's mother and daughter, is there anyone else suspicious?" ”
"Naturally, there are, such as Shangguan Bo, he said that when the murder happened, he was wandering around in the Zhao Mansion, and said that it was because he had diluted his sorrow that he had the heart to play, but when I saw him for the first time today, his expression did not have a sense of downplaying the sorrow, and if he really let it go, why did he come to the Zhao Mansion again? When we were in Shangguan Yun's courtyard today, his footsteps coming back were very hurried, if he was just wandering around, why did he come back in such a hurry? ”
Nangong Yan and Wen Wan'er nodded slightly, Su Wuming said this, the wind and rain outside began to howl, Su Wuming got up and pushed open the window to look out, and suddenly found that there was a snow white in front of him, Nangong Yan glanced at it and said in surprise: "It's snowing!" ”
Yes, it was snowing, but it was very small, and there was light rain mixed with it, so the ground was still full of mud at this time.
Nangong Yan took a few oil-paper umbrellas from behind the door, pulled Su Wuming's arm and said, "Let's go out to enjoy the snow!" ”
"Yes...... But it's dark and the snow is very small, right? Su Wuming was a little surprised in the face of Nangong Yan's actions.
"What's this, you can't sleep anyway, let's go!"
Su Wuming was a little helpless, and after taking the oil-paper umbrella, he asked Wen Wan'er, "Are you going?" ”
Wen Wan'er shook her head: "I won't go, you two can go." ”
Su Wuming was not reluctant, and Nangong Yan walked into the rain and snow with an oil-paper umbrella, and the rain and snow hit the oil-paper umbrella, making a slight sound, and the sound was non-stop, but it was like a feeling of big beads and small beads falling on a jade plate.
The two of them walked slowly in this wind and snow, and there was nothing around except the sound of wind and rain, so the entire Zhao Mansion seemed extremely empty, and this emptiness made people suddenly lonely and sad.
And just when Su Wuming was trapped in this melancholy and couldn't extricate himself, Nangong Yan suddenly shouted: "What person? ”
Su Wuming woke up suddenly, and then looked at Nangong Yan's eyes, and then, he saw a man in black, the man in black ran very fast, his two sleeves fluttered in the wind, as if he had no arms, when Su Wuming saw the man in black, the first thing he thought of was the ghost, the ghost that Zhao Tong mentioned before.
didn't have time to think about it, Su Wuming hurriedly threw down the oil-paper umbrella and chased after him, Nangong Yan was worried about Su Wuming, so he also chased after him, but when they caught up, the man in black had disappeared, as if he was really a ghost and could disappear in an instant.
The ghost disappeared, and the clothes of Su Wuming and Nangong Yan were wet, and at this time, they found that the place where they were now was very close to the scene of Qin Xian's murder today, and they were very close to that warehouse.
What does this event portend?
didn't have time to explain more, Su Wuming hurriedly took Nangong Yan to find the people in the mansion, when everyone gathered in the living room, Su Wuming told them what they found tonight, Zhao Tong was suddenly startled after hearing this, and said, "Ghost ...... The ghosts are coming again? ”
Su Wuming frowned slightly: "That's just a person, and this person is among us!" When Su Wuming said this, he glanced at the people in the living room, there were many people standing in the living room at this time, some of their clothes were neat, some were wearing reverse or oblique, their clothes were a little wet, and the same was true for the shoes under their feet, when Su Wuming noticed this, he regretted it a little, he should have gone to the room one by one to find these people, in this way, the clothes of the person who pretended to be a ghost must be wet, but now they are coming from the rain, their clothes are wet, and it is not easy to find that person.
Of course, there may be another way, and that is to find the night suit that the person is wearing.
So, in such a deep and somewhat chilly night, Su Wuming sent a lot of people to search the up and down of the Zhao Mansion, as long as he found the night clothes, he could determine who that person was, and the night clothes were easy to identify, not to mention that the sleeves of the night clothes were extremely long, that is, the night clothes were stained with rain, which can also be used as a conclusion.
The search took a lot of time, but when the searchers came back, they found nothing, that is, they searched the entire Zhao Mansion, but they couldn't find the night clothes.
This is obviously impossible, the person pretending to be a ghost must be in these people, and the night clothes he wears must also be in the Zhao Mansion, it is impossible not to find it.
"Have you found any of them?"
"Only...... Only Mrs. Zhao's room and Boss Zhao's study did not check! ”
These two places are indeed a little inappropriate, Mrs. Zhao is old, it is really inappropriate to disturb her so late, and the study is a place for Zhao Tong to put private things, such as gold, silver and jewelry, if it is checked, no one wants it.
But if you don't check, wouldn't you let that person do whatever he wanted? Su Wuming glanced at Zhao Tong, and when he looked at him, Zhao Tong immediately said, "I am willing to accept the search!" ”
