Chapter 9: A Walk
Without thinking, the tavern keeper replied, "I boiled a pot of water before dark today!" ”
"There were no bodies at that time?"
"Naturally, no!" The boss swore that "the sun was still shining at that time, and even if my eyes were bad, the water in this tank would never be wrong, right?" ”
"Then say that......" Sun infinity patted his thigh, "My lord, the time of death of this deceased person has been deduced!" ”
"Oh? What is Master Sun's opinion? Miao Miaomiao glanced at him and squatted down to examine the corpse.
"Didn't the tavern owner say that there was no body in the vat before dark, so didn't this person die after dark?!" Sun Infinity shook his head and shook his head, with a posture that he had already mastered the overall situation.
At this time, Miao Dandan wrapped a green thing in a handkerchief and handed it to the girl: "This was found in the mouth and nose of the deceased." ”
"What is this?" Miao Miaomiao brought it close to the candle flame and roasted it, and a not unpleasant smell wafted out.
"It looks like aquatic weeds."
Wang Funian took the pen and wrote on his booklet: "The deceased found aquatic plants in his mouth and nose......"
Miao Miaomiao raised her head and handed the handkerchief in her hand to the tavern owner: "Boss, how long has it been since you brushed this tank?" ”
The other party approached and looked at it carefully: "Go back to your lord!" I just brushed this tank yesterday! And I've never seen grass grow in this jar! ”
"That's interesting."
Miao Miaomiao checked the deceased's nails again, and the nails were full of mud and sand.
"Huh...... Is this Cao Shiliang sure he is a scholar? Why do you look like you're still doing the work of digging the soil? ”
Zhuo Ziping immediately replied when he heard this: "Shi Liang loves cleanliness on weekdays, how can he go to dig the soil?" ”
Miao Miaomiao smiled meaningfully, then stood up and looked him up and down: "Zhuo Ziping? ”
"Yes." The man immediately bowed.
"Take a walk with the officer."
The girl walked to the lake with her hands behind her back.
Zhuo Ziping was stunned for a moment, and immediately followed with a lantern.
Sun Wuyin was a little confused, looked at the backs of the two leaving, approached Wang Funian and asked, "Lord Wang, the lower officials dare to ask, why does this Master Miao act in such a special style?" I was investigating the case just now, but the scholar interjected and went for a walk with others......"
Wang Funian smiled very ambiguously, and looked like he had already understood a lot: "Don't panic Lord Sun, my family is like this...... Who called that Zhuo Ziping beautiful~"
Sun Wuyin immediately understood after hearing this.
Wang Funian added: "Don't spread this word everywhere, it's easy to affect your career!" ”
"Xia Guan naturally understands!" Sun Wuji rubbed his hands, his eyes rolling rapidly, as if he was calculating something.
……
The lake is quiet under the moon.
The beautiful boy carries a lantern to the lake.
It's a beautiful picture......
It's just that this "click" sound is a bit disappointing.
Miao Miaomiao was quick when she investigated the scene just now, and grabbed two handfuls of "evidence" in the fruit bowl of the tavern and put them in her pocket.
That's where it comes in.
"Shall you have something?" Miao Miaomiao handed a handful of melon seeds to the man next to her.
Zhuo Ziping swallowed his saliva and shook his head suddenly: "No...... No need ......"
"The melon seeds in this house are fried very well." The girl wanted to recommend it strongly, but was resolutely rejected by the other party.
"I've tasted it before...... Besides......"
Seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, Miao Miaomiao looked at him with melon seeds and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Besides...... Besides, girl, you just touched it...... Didn't wash my hands......"
Miao Miaomiao's face turned green, and she immediately spit out the food that had just entered her mouth, and put the remaining melon seeds back in her pocket.
His hand rubbed the clothes on his body, and his face immediately returned to the same as before: "Let's get down to business!" Looking at this lake, which road has the best scenery? ”
The man pointed to it: "That's it!" Walk around the lake ......"
Along the lake is a road that is not too big or too small.
They walked in a place with the most open views.
The further you go, the higher the reeds on the side of the walkway, the more disturbed the wild ducks when passing by, and they flutter into the water, but there are a lot of wild fun.
Today is not a day off, there are few tourists like them, and most people still like to take a boat to the lake.
After walking a few hundred steps, Zhuo Ziping finally spoke: "My lord, there is something I can't think of clearly......
"Say it." The autumn days were also a little cold, Miao Miaomiao was a farmer, and some regretted not bringing a cloak out.
"Shi Liang doesn't like alcohol on weekdays, so it's impossible to fall into the water tank after drinking."
The girl chuckled, "Are you thinking about this?" ”
Zhuo Ziping was puzzled: "Can't you think about it?" ”
"I don't think his death was an accident." She sniffed, and the cold fragrance around her nose came to her nose.
There are still osmanthus flowers blooming here?
Miao Miaomiao's mood immediately relaxed, and she said more: "I heard that Cao Shiliang doesn't like the dormitory on weekdays and often stays in the guest house? ”
Zhuo Ziping paused and asked, "How did the adults find out?" Only the people of the academy know about this! ”
"I naturally have a way of knowing." Miao Miaomiao raised her chin proudly, "Do you often borrow his books?" ”
"This grown-up knows?!" The man had turned into an incredible look, with a little reverence, "Only me and him know about this, how did the adults know?!" ”
"Recently, did he lend a book called "Ten Techniques of Imperial Horses"?"
"Big ...... My lord......" Zhuo Ziping's jaw dropped in shock, "How do you know all this?" The book ...... The book was indeed lent out...... And we both had a bit of an unpleasant trouble because of this book......"
When Miao Miaomiao heard it, she pretended to be a magic stick like this, and she could still make an unexpected discovery!
He immediately followed up.
Zhuo Ziping only replied: "I don't know why he was so angry that day, ...... He also forced me to ask for the books back, and I used to borrow his books a lot, but he never said anything......"
"Maybe this book is more important." Miao Miaomiao touched her chin and guessed.
"I thought so at the time, and when I returned the book, I deliberately flipped through it, and it was nothing special."
Miao Miaomiao shook her head after hearing this, and continued to walk forward.
In a few moments the two of them were in the reeds.
The view around was tightly blocked, and Miao Miaomiao half-jokingly mentioned that this place was especially suitable for doing things that would not be discovered.
Zhuo Ziping didn't react at all, and muttered: "If I insisted on not letting him leave at that time, Shi Liang might not have died......"
"It's hard to buy in the world, I knew earlier, and Cao Shiliang's death was not caused by you."
Miao Miaomiao didn't know what else to comfort, so she could only raise her head to look at the starry sky and sigh faintly.
"Look at this starry sky, how bright it is...... Yes! ”
There was only a muffled sound, and a girl fell face down to the ground.
"Big ...... Are you alright, my lord? The man looked at her helplessly, not knowing whether to help her or not.
After all, men and women are not close to each other......
Miao Miaomiao grabbed his arm and stood up with a sigh of strength.
"Poof!"
Spit out the mud in his mouth and cursed: "What dead ghost puts such a big stone on the main road?!" Hurt the old ...... The honest official stumbled! ”
