Chapter 244: The Avengers
Some people saw that he was pitiful, so they gave her money in the name of fortune telling. The goddess's fortune-telling is very accurate, at least, the people who have been told by her fortune think it is very accurate. Some people asked him for guidance, but the goddess was very stubborn, she often said that the destiny of heaven cannot be violated, and cause and effect are predestined. The fruit of today is the cause of the past.
So, although many people come to her for fortune telling, she makes very little money. For more than ten years, she only earned back this wooden façade of less than ten square meters for herself, such a small place that accommodates all the food and daily life of the goddess.
Lu Sheng doesn't need to investigate these things with great fanfare, he just needs to inquire casually from the neighbors in the vegetable market.
The goddess is ugly, and can even be said to be terrifying. But...... For children who grew up in the wet market, the goddess is the cutest person in the wet market. Because she would buy candy for the children to eat, and she would tell the children that they should read, at least be able to read.
Therefore, when Xuan Tianwei left with a large bag of things, the children in the vegetable market would pick up the stones on the ground and throw them over.
"Bad guys, bad guys!"
"Why are you arresting your mother-in-law—"
"Badass, big badass—"
These stones naturally couldn't hurt Xuan Tianwei's group of bodies with profound martial arts, but the stones smashed deeply into Xuan Tianwei's heart.
Bad guys, bad guys, is the justice we insist on doing evil in the eyes of our children?
Xuan Tianwei gritted his teeth tightly, and left with a bunch of things with a gloomy face. The stronger the body, the softer the inner becomes. Even if I know from the bottom of my heart that sometimes the justice I insist on cannot be understood, but when it really happens to me, the feeling is not so pleasant.
"Wrong...... It's all wrong......"
Back in the Criminal Division, Lu Sheng locked himself in the study, picked up the case of the child's disappearance and started to compare again. But after reading all the files, Lu Sheng lay on his back on the chair.
Before discovering the basement, Lu Sheng always believed that Lai Chuntao's ninth lady was ordered by the mastermind behind the scenes to kill Lai Chuntao.
But now, Lu Sheng sadly found that he had made a common-sense mistake, and Lu Sheng should not have characterized Lai Chuntao's death as an extinction from the beginning. Although, at this juncture, this time is the greatest possibility.
If the Ninth Lady was the one who was sent by the mastermind behind the scenes to kill Lai Chuntao, then why did it take so much trouble to kill someone? Although the Ninth Lady killed Lai Chuntao very neatly, the killing of Wu Changsheng actually involved Mrs. Wu and revealed too many clues.
When Lu Sheng was still looking for the cause of Wu Chang's death, Lai Chuntao happened to catch up with the same way of death, which undoubtedly sent Lu Sheng a clue to solve the mystery. And the cross-corroboration of the two led Lu Sheng to the edge of unraveling the truth at once.
If he was a professional killer, how could he make such a low-level mistake? Killing Lai Chuntao could be solved with a dagger, so that no matter how much Lu Shengzhang had two heads, he would not be able to link the deaths of Lai Chuntao and Wu Changsheng together.
The more clever the killer, the simpler and crisper. The more involved, the more complex the way of committing the crime, which can only show the conditions of the killer and the limited resources. As a last resort, such a complex layout is used, and the more complex it is, the more flaws are exposed.
Therefore, if it is the real mastermind behind the scenes, there is no need to use this weird poison to kill Wu Changsheng.
It was the same person who killed Wu Changsheng and Lai Chuntao, or the same group of people. However, the purpose of their killing is not to kill their mouths, nor to sweep the tail, but to take revenge!
In the basement, there are so many tablets enshrined, all of which are people who were involved in the Seven Great Tooth Lines back then. In the file, all the bosses of the Seven Great Tooth Shops were executed by Ling Chi, and their families were all punished differently.
Among them, as many as 18 people were stabbed and beheaded. That goddess should be one of these eighteen people. The goddess scratched her face to cover up the tattoos on her face.
She said that she was a demon who crawled out of hell, and she was not wrong at all. She should have died a long time ago, but for revenge, she crawled out of hell again.
At that time, the person who presided over the trial of the case was Wu Changsheng, who was sentenced by Tongnan Mansion, and it was Lai Chuntao who reported the Seven Great Teeth, so the goddess carefully designed this bureau and killed two people one after another.
But......
Lu Sheng opened his eyes abruptly and opened the file again.
Although the people of the Seven Great Tooth Lines died and were sentenced, there were still many people who escaped by luck. Because they were still very young back then.
"The goddess is not the only avenger, otherwise ...... She would never choose to commit suicide by taking poison. The reason for committing suicide by poisoning is to protect other avengers. Mrs. Nine did not hesitate to bite off her tongue to keep her secret...... There were still many people who dealt with this case back then, and their targets for revenge were definitely not just Wu Changsheng and Lai Chuntao...... Someone!"
"My lord!" Gai Ying, who was waiting outside the door, immediately pushed the door and entered.
"Let Lu Jian bring the details of the Ninth Lady!"
"Yes!"
Soon. Lu Jian came to Lu Sheng's study with a dossier, and Lu Sheng took it and looked at it carefully.
The origin of the ninth lady is unknown, but it is known that she was raised by Cuihualou since she was a child. Cuihualou is a green building, and every year it will buy some good-looking girls from the tooth store to cultivate. If the Ninth Lady is the orphan of the Seven Great Tooth Shops, it is reasonable to be sold to the Qinglou.
However, Mrs. Nine is only nineteen years old this year, and it has been fifteen years since the case was filed today. How could the Ninth Lady, who was only four years old at the time, remember this bloody case, and how could she become an avenger?
The only possibility is that the idea she has been instilled since she was a child is revenge, revenge for her loved ones.
Lu Sheng's eyes were finally fixed in Cuihualou.
"Lu Jian, I asked you to investigate the intelligence of Cuihualou before, how is the investigation?"
"The information has been almost gathered, and the subordinates will go and get it. ”
From the first time he saw Qing Xuan, to the discovery of Qing Xuan's split personality, Lu Sheng has always been very wary of this woman. On the night of Wu Chang's death, he came back from Cuihualou.
According to Mrs. Wu's confession, Wu Changsheng did not contact anyone after returning from Cuihualou, except for Mrs. Wu herself. And Mrs. Wu only knew the aphrodisiac powder among the two medicines, so the other medicine could only be taken when she was in Cuihualou.
Within four hours, the mixing of the two medicines could produce severe poison, and Wu Changsheng died here.
Soon, Lu Jian returned to the study with the file again, "My lord, Cuihualou really has some connection with the Seven Great Tooth Shops back then. The previous boss of Cuihualou was called Ren Feiyan, who was opened by the younger sister of the owner of Dongsheng Yaxing.
Later, after the Dongsheng Yaxing case, Ren Feiyan exerted a lot of strength. Even at the beginning, Ren Feiyan had already planned to sell Cuihualou and then go to Beijing to sue the emperor.
But before Cuihualou could be sold, the verdict of that year came down, and all the main culprits of the Seven Great Tooth Shops were executed. And because Ren Feiyan has been separated for a long time, she also has some connections in Tongnan Mansion, so she was not involved in this case......"
"That's really the case......" Lu Sheng put down the file, and the picture of Qing Xuan stroking the qin in the hall appeared in front of him.
Qing Xuan was the owner of Cuihua Building, and a girl actually opened a green building? At that time, Lu Sheng was incomprehensible. Later, Qingxuan told Lu Sheng that this Qinglou was opened by her distant aunt, and her aunt left it to her after she died of illness.
Her parents died when she was a child, and her aunt raised her. The verdict of the Seven Great Tooth Lines back then could be described as extremely heavy, and it was almost destroyed by the three clans. Only children up to the age of ten survived.
Calculated in this way, Qing Xuan should be the orphan of the Seven Great Tooth Lines. Why did she become schizophrenic? It is very likely that she witnessed the destruction of her own family, and her spirit was strongly stimulated.
Thinking of this, Lu Sheng slowly stood up, came to the window and pushed it open.
It was a new night, and the moon hung high in the sky.
It's exactly the same as that night, when I sat on the eaves and listened to the ethereal sound of the piano like a clear spring.
Lu Sheng always thought that he would not be disturbed by his personal emotions to investigate the case, but now, he has some difficulties. Qing Xuan is different in Lu Sheng's heart, not the feeling between men and women, but a kind of appreciation, a kind of elegant but strong good feeling like a gentleman's friendship.
Especially in Lu Sheng's view, after Qing Xuan's schizophrenia separates a person's Buddha nature and demonic nature, in Lu Sheng's heart, Qing Xuan, who is as pure and noble as a snow lotus, can be described as perfect.
If the demonic Qing Xuan can be completely cut off, then Qing Xuan may be the only true Buddha in this world.
Qing Xuan, who admires it incomparably, should not be an avenger in Lu Sheng's heart. She should be as otherworldly as a snow lotus......
His thoughts floated for a long time, and he looked at the bright moon in the sky and lowered his head and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
What is perfect in the world, and what should be? The so-called should is nothing more than her own subjective conjecture! In her own opinion, what Qing Xuan should be, but in Qing Xuan's view, everything she does is what she should be.
"It's vulgar, it's vulgar! Zi is not a fish, and the joy of knowing fish is also ......"
"My lord, what is vulgar?" Lu Jian and Gai Ying were puzzled by Lu Sheng's sudden words......
"It's nothing, it's a useless thing, I'm going out to meet a friend. ”
"My lord, do you want to go with you?"
"No—"
The sound of not using it landed, and Lu Sheng's figure was already insignificant.
The moonlight is sultry, hanging in the sky like a jade plate. Lu Sheng stepped on the moonlight and slowly fell on the roof of Qing Xuan's house.
Until now, Lu Sheng still doesn't know what the name of this building of Qingxuan's house is.
The lights in the building were bright, but there was no sound of the piano, and in the hall, the piano stand was empty, and a maid laboriously rubbed the wooden planks in the hall.
Lu Sheng wanted to ask the maid if Qingxuan was not at home, but suddenly found that he didn't seem to be able to show up at this moment. Climbing through a window might cause a misunderstanding, right?
The maid may have been tired, and she knocked her waist and straightened up. Suddenly, perhaps seeing something surprising, let out an exclamation and came to the desk next to the piano stand.
picked up a picture scroll from the desk, and after Lu Sheng saw the person on the painting, he was so shocked that he almost fell off the roof.
On the picture scroll, the son is like a shock. Although Lu Sheng dared to guarantee that he had never posed for this sassy bag. But who else could the person in the painting be if he wasn't Lu Sheng?
"Miss, Miss, you actually have a sweetheart? If this son knew that you went to drink with those officials tonight, they might be angry. Why do you bother to practice yourself like this......"
