Chapter 35: Two Murderers?
Miao Miaomiao asked Xiao Er to tell Xiao Er whether anyone else had entered and exited the account room after the deceased entered the account room.
Xiao Er couldn't think of anything: "I'll tell you the truth, I don't like to be disturbed when the shopkeeper is settling accounts, so I left after preparing charcoal fire and tea for him...... The door was also locked by herself......"
"Is the key to the door only your shopkeeper?" Miao Miaomiao asked.
"It's natural! Of course, the key to the account room is only the shopkeeper's......" At this point, he suddenly waved his hand, "Also, I didn't poison the tea!" ”
Miao Miaomiao chuckled lightly, asking him to calm down for a while, and think carefully about what he had done after nightfall today.
And she entered the account room again.
He was checking with his back to her, and he was still muttering, "It's strange, it's strange." ”
Miao Miaomiao asked, what's strange?
He said that he had found that the deceased had not drunk tea before his death.
Miao Miaomiao opened the lid of the pot and saw that the tea in it was almost full, and with the amount of water that Miao Dan took to feed the rabbits, it was exactly a pot.
Does this mean that the deceased was not drugged?
Was her guess wrong?
Then, he showed her another thing, some sawdust.
This sawdust is different from the one on the bookshelf.
The bookshelves are red lacquer, and the sawdust is black, with a hint of gold.
Could this be the murder weapon?
Looking at the entire ledger, no objects of this color were found.
"Has the cause of death been found?"
He replied, "Died from a blow to the head, that is, before the bookshelf hit." ”
Except for the toppled bookshelves, there was no other place in the ledger that had been turned over, and the murderer struck the deceased on the head so violently and many times, indicating that it may have been a vendetta.
Miao Miaomiao immediately asked people to call over the people who the deceased didn't deal with before his death.
In the middle of the night, the officials of the Western Capital were also neat, and they brought people over after a while.
Miao Miaomiao asked those people, but there was no reason to kill her.
Because most of these people are business conflicts, even if she dies, the big boss behind Feng Laiyi will send a new shopkeeper again.
"Do you know who the big boss behind Feng Laiyi is?" Her sudden change of gossip caught others off guard.
But which mysterious big boss is elusive, naturally no one knows who he is!
Miao Miaomiao was slightly disappointed and let those people go back.
"Xiao Ni, you said before that the murderer must be someone from the inn, why do you still interrogate the people outside?" Yang Ganlu held a thermos in his hand and cowered aside.
When she saw this, she couldn't bear it, so she untied her coat and put it on her: "I'm not afraid that someone will hire a murderer." ”
As soon as the words ended, the upstairs occupants began to shout in dissatisfaction.
"It's not good to investigate the case if someone is dead, what are you doing in our room?!"
"That's it! This broken inn lives in bad luck, hurry up and change to an inn! ”
"I think that Dragon Gate Inn is good, let's go live there!"
Staying at Dragon Gate Inn?
I'm afraid I'm tired of being crooked, and I want to become a human meat bun soon, right?
Miao Miaomiao smiled disdainfully, and walked upstairs with her hands behind her back: "Everyone, don't be impatient. Now that there is a murder in the store, you should cooperate, otherwise Meiguo should have a complete set of laws to rectify you, right? ”
Her smile hid a knife in her smile, and everyone present was frightened.
No one dared to say "no" again.
However, the officials searched the various rooms thoroughly, but still did not find any such special paint objects.
She was naturally a little anxious in her heart, but she couldn't show it on the surface.
Looking up at the door number, I walked in one by one.
When I walked into the No. 3 room of Tianzi, a woman was sitting in a wheelchair with a cold face and lowered eyes.
Feeling that someone was coming in, she slowly raised her head and looked at the person who came, and her eyes were not shocked: "I have inconvenient legs and feet, so I can't entertain the girl, the girl is casual." ”
Miao Miaomiao said "bother" and walked to the window.
Half of his body leaned out, just in time to see Miao Dandan leaning out of the window downstairs.
Looking at each other, Miao Miaomiao smiled.
She retracted and said a few words of concern to the woman in the wheelchair in the room.
I learned that this woman has been disabled since she was a child, but fortunately, she can fill her stomach with some handiwork.
Miao Miaomiao felt that she was modest.
Filling your stomach?
People who can afford to live in Fenglaiyi, is it as simple as just being able to fill their stomachs?
"This young lady, if you don't mind, why don't you go downstairs and sit down?" With a wave of Miao Miaomiao's hand, two officials came in and lifted her up with a wheelchair.
Without the slightest consent of the other party.
At this time, the deceased's husband came.
It was a young and beautiful man, who seemed to have a slight age gap between him and the deceased.
This man's name is Guan Fu, a native of Boluo Secret Village, who married Feng Laiyi's shopkeeper as her husband three years ago.
He entered the account room, and when he saw the dead man, he almost fainted.
Fortunately, Wang Funian was cushioned below, so as not to hit his head.
I heard Wang Funian downstairs shouting loudly: "My uncle and grandfather! It's just a wife who died, who hasn't died?! You're not going to look for life and death, are you?! ”
Miao Miaomiao heard the sound and went downstairs.
Seeing Guan Fu crying, pear blossoms brought rain.
For the first time, she felt that men could also use this adjective.
"Fu'er?"
His name was called from behind him.
Guan Fu felt that the voice was familiar, so he looked back at her, and was surprised to see his acquaintance.
"Sister Ling?"
As soon as Guan Fu's crying voice sounded, Miao Miaomiao frowned and looked at the wheelchair woman and asked, "You two know each other?" ”
After inquiry, it was learned that the wheelchair woman was called Guan Qiaoling, and she was from the same village as Guan Fu.
These two have known each other since childhood, and they can be regarded as childhood sweethearts, and the two have no guesses.
If Guan Qiaoling was killed because Guan Fu was married to Feng Laiyi's shopkeeper, it would be reasonable.
But despite this speculation, the eye contact between the two people does not show too much affection.
Could it be that these two people have no personal relationship?
Guan Fu is now kneeling on the ground and begging bitterly, wanting to give his lady justice as soon as possible.
Miao Miaomiao pulled it up and pushed it in front of the wheelchair girl: "Don't howl, the real murderer already knows who it is, you yourself directly ask her why she killed your lady!" ”
As soon as she said this, everyone was stunned.
"Xiao Ni, do you mean that this woman killed the shopkeeper?" Yang Ganlu asked tentatively.
No one would believe that a woman in a wheelchair would kill an able-bodied person!
But Miao Miaomiao is categorically sure that this person is the murderer!
"This girl, I see that you are young, don't talk about it." Guan Qiaoling shook her head helplessly, "There are a lot of able-bodied people in the inn here, why do you suspect that I am a disabled person who even struggles to go up and down the stairs?" ”
Xiao Er nodded: "That's right, this guest officer lives on the second floor, and every time he goes up and down the stairs, he has to ask us for help, how could he go downstairs and kill the shopkeeper when I didn't find out, and then go upstairs again...... It's too hard to think about, isn't it? ”
"Could it be ......" Wang Funian pointed to her leg and shouted, "Your disability is pretended?!" ”
"Nonsense! Sister Ling's leg was amputated since she was a child! Guan Fu frantically wanted to push Wang Funian's hand away, but he didn't push it at all.
Wang Funian looked at him in disbelief, clasped his arms in his hands, and his eyes were full of anger: "Are all the men in your charming country so unkind?" I finally saved your life, and I didn't even say thank you, but this attitude towards me? ”
"It's that you can't catch the real murderer, so you are looking for soft persimmons to pinch! A bunch of incompetents! ”
Miao Miaomiao was also angry enough by this man's unreasonable trouble, she gritted her teeth and said coldly: "Don't you just want to listen to reasoning?" In this regard, I am deeply influenced by the true inheritance of my ancestors and grandfathers. Don't kneel after listening! ”
