Volume 3: The Ghost Bride Chapter 144: Jin Mei
I thought that after finding out the murderer of Chen Fei, the murder case of Da Niu and Lan Lan would also be over.
But I didn't expect that it was another real murderer who killed Da Niu and Lan Lan.
The village chief said: "Then don't we go back to the clue of investigating the death of Da Niu and Lan Lan now?" ”
Amu said: "Other than that, are there any other clues?" ”
The village chief said with a sad face: "But we have no clues about this matter now that can guide us in the direction of our investigation, how can we continue to investigate?" ”
Amu shook his head and said, "The little monk is also worried about this matter. ”
The village chief suddenly stopped talking.
He had nothing to say.
Even Amu is trapped by this, what else can he say?
Although they have a target, they have no way to prove the target's guilt.
The clue was broken when they came back from Da Niu's house, leaving them with no way to start.
The most frustrating thing about investigating a case is encountering this kind of stuck.
It's like a person who is on a dead end, knowing that there is a way to survive, but he just can't remember where the intersection is to enter this road.
On this day, Amu was sitting in front of the village chief's house and enjoying the scenery in the distance.
The white clouds are fluttering, and the distant mountains are faint.
Farmers in hats work in the fields at the foot of the mountain with their backs to the sky.
This tranquility is simply the best and most desirable scenery in the world.
But Amu didn't really appreciate it with his heart.
Because there were more important things for him to think about.
Three days have passed since the deaths of Da Niu and Lan Lan.
He still has no progress on the case.
He can't let the killer go unpunished.
He couldn't let Lan Lan die innocently.
What an innocent and lovely girl!
He wants to catch the murderer and ask him how he could bear to kill such a little girl!
To this day, he still clearly remembers Lan Lan's innocent and romantic smiling face.
I still remember her crisp and melodious laughter like a silver bell.
After three days of in-depth thinking, Amu can be completely sure that the murderer is A-Qing.
I just couldn't find any evidence.
There must have been some details that he had overlooked.
As long as he can find the reason why Ah Qing killed Da Niu and Lan Lan, he is confident that he can find evidence to identify him.
Everyone said that Ah Qing and Da Niu were very good friends, and there was no contradiction between the two of them that would be enough to cause you to live or die.
The more this is the case, the more Amu suspects that A-Qing has a motive to kill.
There must be a grudge between Da Niu and Ah Qing that others don't know.
How is he going to find out about their contradictions?
There is no such thing as a perfect thing.
There are two sides to everything.
So there must be a flaw in it.
Where are the flaws?
Although Amu hadn't found it yet, he was sure that the flaw was in the place he had overlooked.
What did he overlook?
I kept thinking about what I had experienced and who I had met in the past few days.
He'd thought about it hundreds of times.
It's like when he used to practice with his master in the temple, he memorized scriptures.
If you can't remember it once, you can memorize it twice, and each time you will have different feelings and epiphanies.
The picture in my mind is gradually pieced together into a complete picture.
He purged the people and things that could be completely eliminated, and what was left was useful.
Wait a minute!
He was suddenly startled.
A vague figure popped into my mind.
This is the figure of a young girl.
Who is this woman?
He didn't know.
But he saw this woman when he went to Da Niu's house to mourn that day.
He stared at her for a long time.
was only on this side, and it was only out of curiosity that he looked at her a few more times, so Amu quickly forgot about her afterwards.
But now he suddenly remembered again.
Why did he think of this girl at this time?
Could it be that she was an important clue that he had overlooked?
Thinking of this, Amu couldn't help but feel a little hairy in his body.
For some reason, he thought it was a bit weird.
The eerie feeling was like an eerie chill sneaking into his skin.
He gradually remembered what the woman looked like.
That day, she sat sobbing and sitting next to the big cow's mother.
At that time, her expression and the expression in her teary eyes, at this time, Amu thought about it, and felt very suspicious in her heart!
His instincts are usually accurate!
This woman must have something to do with the death of Da Niu and Lan Lan.
Thinking of this, the blood in his body quickly rose and boiled, making him have an irrepressible excitement burst out of his chest.
The problem that had been bothering him for a long time was now finally making progress.
If it goes well, the clouds will open and the truth will be revealed.
He got up and ran into the house to find the village chief.
Amu has always been steady and calm, no matter what happens, what crisis he encounters, he is always calm.
It was the first time for the village chief to see him so excited, so he was taken aback.
Amu realized his gaffe from the village chief's expression, and immediately suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked, "There is a person in the little monk who wants to ask the village chief. ”
The village chief said: "Master Amu is not polite, you can ask any questions." ”
Amu said: "Do you remember that day when we went to Da Niu's house to mourn, in addition to some relatives, friends and villagers, there was also a young woman in his family, who was in her twenties. ”
The village chief thought for a long time before he said "oh" and said, "That's the daughter of the Lao Ma family, named Jin Mei, who is twenty-four years old this year. Why did Master Amu suddenly ask about her? ”
Amu said: "Why did she appear at Da Niu's house that day?" Are they related? ”
The village chief squinted his eyes and said: "The two of them have nothing to do with each other, and I also think it is strange for you to say this, but in terms of the relationship between Jin Mei and Da Niu, it is not surprising that she will appear in the mourning hall after Da Niu dies." ”
Amuqi said: "What does she have to do with Da Niu?" ”
The village chief said: "Jin Mei grew up playing with Da Niu and Ah Qing since she was a child, and the three of them have a good relationship. When Jin Mei was twenty years old, she fell in love with the big cow, and her childhood sweetheart came together. But for some reason, there has been no hurry to get married, until this time the two of them have been negotiated, planning to choose an auspicious day for the two of them to do a happy event, alas, who knew that the big cow suddenly suffered such a disaster at this time and died. ”
Amu was secretly surprised: "I see, I see. He suddenly looked at the village chief with a pair of shining eyes and said, "I may know the reason why A-Qing killed Da Niu." ”
The village chief was confused, and he couldn't believe that Amu could figure out everything that he couldn't figure out for days by just asking him a few words.
"You really know?"
Amu smiled: "You take me to Jinmei, just ask her." ”
The village chief was still in a state of confusion, but he didn't ask much, and in this regard, he was still very straightforward.
Since Amu didn't say it directly, it must have not been the time to say it.
In the past few days, he and Amu have teamed up to investigate the case, getting along day and night, and basically figured out Amu's style and rhythm of doing things.
So he took Amu directly to Lao Ma's house.
