Chapter 68: The Murder Under the Maple Tree 8 Xiaoxia
Coming from the hotel, the instructor led the team to find a men's watch in Wang Yingying's room. also learned from the waiter that Pang Lei, the eldest young master of the Pang family, was in Wang Yingying's room for the past two days, and did not leave until the afternoon of the crime. There were no signs of the room being turned over, and there was no sign of Wang Yingying's belongings being lost.
Lin Jinghao and his entourage came to the Pang family's villa again, and the door was opened by a smiling elder, who claimed to be surnamed Zhang and was the new housekeeper. There were no two fierce Tibetan mastiffs as strong as calves at the door, only the two pixiu made of stone were still squatting there. I don't know if it's because it's autumn, the huge Pang family villa seems a little bleak and lonely.
"Isn't he at home?" Lin Jinghao asked as he walked inside.
"Yes, yes, after the young master came back, he didn't go out again." The roses in the courtyard have withered, and it seems that after Pang Feng's death, everything that belongs to him no longer exists.
"Wait a minute, I'll go and call the young master down." The housekeeper asked Lin Jinghao and the three of them to sit down on the sofa in the hall, instructed the servant, and made a cup of tea for each of them.
"This tea..."Lin Jinghao took a sip of it, and a strong familiar feeling rushed straight to his heart.
"This tea is the tea brought by the grandmother from her hometown, it is said that it is their local specialty, you can clear your heart and eyes when you drink it, and the lord likes it very much, so he ordered us to bring it to entertain guests."
'Grandma! Lin Jinghao's eyes suddenly flashed a person, and it disappeared in a flash, it was something he buried deep in his heart and didn't want to be known. No, it won't be her. Lin Jinghao secretly thought in his heart.
"Director Lin, you are really persistent, you chased you from the restaurant to your home, do you have anything to ask me?" Pang Lei walked down the stairs in an idle lounge suit, his emaciated face rejuvenated, and he looked in good spirits.
"Oh, that day, I saw a Patek Philippe watch with a 'starry blue' on his hand, and I want to borrow it to take a look, I don't know if it's convenient?" Pei Feng was about to speak, but Lin Jinghao stopped him.
"Do you want to see my husband's watch, or do you want to take him back for questioning, Lin Jinghao!" A woman's voice suddenly sounded upstairs, and Lin Jinghao's three words were particularly loud, as if he had a 'deep hatred' with him.
Lin Jinghao was shocked when he heard this. As soon as he looked up, there was a familiar woman standing upstairs, although it had been so many years, it still made his heart beat wildly.
"Xiaoxia." It was a name engraved in his heart, a name that made him feel deeply guilty and unforgettable.
"I haven't seen you for so many years, Lin Jinghao, you still haven't changed much?" The woman walked down with a light lotus step, the wind swayed like a willow, the closer she got to Lin Jinghao, the more Lin Jinghao felt her heart beating wildly, and all this had already been seen by Gu Qing.
"Wife, it turns out that you know Director Lin, this is easy to do." Seeing his wife and Lin Jinghao greeting him, Pang Lei's nervous expression instantly relaxed.
"Pang Lei, we have reason to believe that you are related to the second murder case, and now we hope that you will go back to assist in the investigation, please cooperate." Lin Jinghao didn't know how to answer, and Gu Qing suddenly spoke first next to him.
"This beautiful police officer is..."Gu Qing's sudden voice caught everyone off guard. Only Xiaoxia seemed to understand what she meant.
"Wife, this is Miss Gu, and she is also a police officer from the police station." Pang Lei was still much more polite to Miss Gu.
"Since your police have come to the door, do you have any evidence to prove that my husband is related to the second murder?" Xiaoxia walked down, glanced at Lin Jinghao with her eyes, and then sat on the sofa. This leisurely feeling, as if everything that has just happened, is just a passing moment.
"Young Master Huge, do you know Wang Yingying?" Now Gu Qing is like meeting a rival in love, she is suddenly full of fighting spirit.
Pang Lei glanced at his wife and opened his mouth, but he didn't make a sound, as if he was asking for her opinion.
"Husband, you just answer the officer's questions directly, don't worry about my feelings." Xiaoxia glanced at a few cups of tea on the coffee table, and she suddenly picked up a cup and sniffed it. Then he gracefully picked up the tea lid, took a sip, and gently put it back.
This seemingly inadvertent move made everyone stunned, because she was drinking Lin Jinghao's cup of tea.
"Lin Suo, she drank your cup." Pei Feng couldn't help but cry out.
"This officer doesn't make a fuss about everything, okay? I was... And you Lin Suo, often drink tea in a cup. Xiaoxia's understatement made Gu Qing's face turn pale with anger, and it could be seen that she did it on purpose.
"Wife, can you save me some face in front of others." Xiaoxia's move made Pang Lei completely feel that he had lost face in front of the housekeeper and servant.
"Huge Shao, who is that Wang Yingying? Do you think that now that the police have come to the door, does my wife still have face? Xiaoxia's words, like a flattened spring, bounced back Pang Lei's words at once, and it was fast and ruthless.
"By the way, Da Shao, please take out your 'Starry Sky Blue' and show it to us." Lin Jinghao couldn't be silent anymore, he knew that everything Xiaoxia was doing now was 'revenge' on him.
"Patek Philippe... I don't know where I fell? I'm going to find out. In fact, when Pang Lei came back, he had already found that his watch was missing, but he didn't know that Wang Yingying deliberately hid it after knowing that this watch was worth a lot of money.
"Don't look for it anymore, we found a 'starry blue' watch that is the same as Da Da Shao's in Wang Yingying's room, and the hotel has also confirmed that Da Da Shao has been with that Wang Yingying for the past two days, how do you explain?" Lin Jinghao didn't want to turn around the bush anymore, he just wanted to cut through the mess quickly.
"I... I stayed with her for two days, what's wrong? Could it be that Wang Yingying is dead? Pang Lei couldn't avoid Lin Jinghao's question, and he screamed like a trapped beast.
Seeing that the butler had already made a look, he broke away all the servants, and quietly retreated to a far corner. And Xiaoxia, who is Pang Lei's wife, has an expressionless face, and continues to drink Lin Jinghao's tea slowly. It seems that her husband's cheating is no longer something that can excite her.
"Unfortunately, on the night you left, Wang Yingying was killed under a maple tree on the mountain behind." I don't know why, seeing Xiaoxia's indifference, Lin Jinghao's heart suddenly had an urge to beat Pang Lei.
"Wang Yingying is dead? When I left, she was fine. Pang Lei's surprised expression didn't look like he was pretending, and he looked at his wife again for help.
"Director Lin, you also said that Wang Yingying died on the mountain behind that night, but my husband has not been out since he came back in the afternoon. All the people in our house can testify. Xiaoxia finished drinking the tea in Lin Jinghao's cup and put down the teacup.
"Lin Jinghao, how is the tea I made? Isn't it still the same taste as it was? After Xiaoxia finished speaking, she looked at Lin Jinghao and asked with a smile, the calm expression on her face felt that the sky was falling, and she was just as calm as she was.
"Even if we can provide alibi evidence, we have the right to ask him to go back and assist in the investigation." Gu Qing was about to be mad, what kind of woman is this? Her husband is still standing next to her, and she can actually flirt with her 'old lover' in public, although her husband is not a good person.
"It's okay husband, the police have no evidence, they can only detain you for twelve hours at most, so you can go with them." Regarding Gu Qing's 'provocation', Xiaoxia is still indifferent, it seems that she is very familiar with the laws and regulations.
"No need, we have already asked what should be asked, if there is a need for the cooperation of the large and young next time, I hope that the large and the young must give us cooperation." Lin Jinghao stretched out his hand to stop Gu Qing, he knew very well that now in the absence of conclusive evidence, the most important thing was to stay calm.
"Director Lin is still insightful, and we will definitely cooperate with the police in the future. By the way, if Pang Lei remembers something, I will call you as soon as possible, it is better to leave your phone number, so that I can find you. After speaking, Xiaoxia stood up, stretched out her jade arm, and handed her mobile phone to Lin Jinghao. The beautiful and slender ten fingers, painted red like blood, the slightly upturned little finger, the whole degree of curvature is just right, which can arouse the desire of a man to kiss Fangze.
"Lin Suo," Seeing that Lin Jinghao took the phone in Xiaoxia's hand and began to enter his phone number, Gu Qing was about to go crazy.
"Excuse me, remember to contact us if you think of anything." Lin Jinghao handed the phone back to Xiaoxia, turned around and left.
"Lin Suo."
"Let's go back first." Lin Jinghao ignored Gu Qing's objection and walked towards the door.
On the way back to the police station, Lin Jinghao didn't say a word, Gu Qing stared at him with a resentful face, and only Pei Feng looked out the window with a bored expression.
"Lin Jinghao, tell me clearly, what is your relationship with Pang Lei's wife?" Gu Qing was really going crazy, she actually started to call his name directly, because the woman just now was also called like that.
Lin Jinghao glanced up at Gu Qing, opened his mouth, wanted to say something, and endured it again, he originally wanted to say that he had nothing to do with Xiaoxia, just a friend from the old days, but he just wanted to speak, but he couldn't say anything.
'Is it true that he has nothing to do with Xiaoxia? Then why haven't I seen her for so many years, and when I see her, I can't help but want to hug her..."
