043 There are clues
Hu Qingyuan asked Song Ning, "What does Miss Song want to know, please ask." ”
Song Ning saluted and said, "Please tell me about your timeline yesterday afternoon." ”
"Yesterday afternoon?" Hu Qingyuan didn't pause and said, "When you came yesterday, I was about to go out. In fact, after I left the cottage, I went straight across the river. ”
"I went straight to the Loufu Courtyard, and the children came after the exam. The banquet started at about three o'clock, first there were more than 20 people, all of whom were Mingzhu's students, and then half of them left, and the remaining 10 people drank until the end of the hour. ”
"I drank a little too much last night," he said, sighing heavily, "If I hadn't been drunk, maybe Miyun wouldn't have had an accident if I had come back." ”
Hu Qingyuan looked at the sky in the distance, and his expression was indescribably sad.
"Is the gentleman upset?" Song Ning asked.
Hu Qingyuan didn't answer immediately, but after a few breaths, he said: "I'm sad, whether it's Rosser or Miyun, they are all outstanding good children, and now that Xiang Xiaoyu is dead, I have no face to explain to their parents!" ”
As he spoke, he sighed heavily, lowering his eyes with a melancholy expression.
"Sir, who do you think is going to kill them?" Duan Yi interjected and asked.
Hu Qingyuan was stunned, and suddenly looked at Duan Yi: "What do you mean...... The murderer of the two of them is a person? ”
"Huh?" Duan Yi paused, and immediately waved his hand and said, "There is no evidence yet, I'll ask casually." ”
After he finished speaking, he stuck out his tongue in embarrassment at Song Ning.
Song Ning was helpless.
Hu Qingyuan did not relax, frowning: "After Rosher was killed, I often thought that someone would harm her, and I also checked her usual contacts...... But we all know her friends, and no one has this possibility. ”
"As for Miyun, I can't figure it out, she's still so young, who would want to harm a child."
Duan Yi couldn't help but nodded: "Rosser was killed, there is a possibility of murder and robbery, but Luo Miyun was killed, and the motive is unknown." ”
Song Ning looked at him expressionlessly.
Did he say the wrong thing again? Duan Yi glared.
Song Ning didn't look at him again, and recited the song from Rosser's book to Hu Qingyuan, "How does Mr. understand this song?" ”
Hu Qingyuan frowned, explained the background of the poem and the author's state of mind at the time, and concluded: "The idea is to express patriotism. ”
Song Ning said: "Doesn't it mean anything else?" ”
Hu Qingyuan said: "It depends on the usefulness, and there are also metaphors that the author is dissatisfied with the status quo and is eager to change and break free. Then he asked, "Why do you ask this song, is it related to the case?" ”
Song Ning said, "Not for the time being," and added, "Last question, when was the last time you saw Luo Miyun yesterday?" ”
Hu Qingyuan thought for a while and replied: "Even in my thatched cottage, you are also there, and then I went to the Cuishan Courtyard, and I didn't see her again." ”
Song Ning thanked him, Hu Qingyuan wanted to leave, and suddenly Song Ning asked, "Sir, when did you come back the day after Rosser was killed?" ”
"It's almost noon." Hu Qingyuan said.
Song Ning said again: "What were you doing at that time?" ”
Hu Qingyuan frowned at her, paused and replied very gently: "Mo Ru and I were playing chess, and after Wu Ziyi arrived, we didn't even pack our clothes, so we came back." ”
"Thank you, sir."
Hu Qingyuan bowed his head and went back to the courtyard alone, Song Ning was about to go to Shen Wenyu, Dou Hua ran out: "Song Ning, aren't you going to ask me a question?" ”
"Come on, I'm ready."
He crossed his waist and chest, and looked like he was being picked up.
Duan Yi looked stunned, Shen Wenyu over there also looked over, and then ended the conversation with the cook, walked over to protect Song Ning, and said to Dou Hua: "What's wrong with the third son?" ”
"Why are they all here? You are busy with your go. Dou Hua bypassed Shen Wenyu and stretched out his round head at Song Ning, "You ask me, ask me!" ”
Song Ning asked with a smile: "The third prince should be very familiar with Rosse when he often comes to Hu Mansion, what do you think of her attitude towards life?" Is it expecting and appreciating everything, or is it a lack of interest every day, bent on breaking the status quo in the cage of conflict? ”
Dou Hua stared at Song Ning, thought for a while, and said, "I'm not sure if I love life, but it's not that I'm lacking in interest." As for breaking, the phoenix that flew out of her chicken nest, what is not satisfied? ”
"Do you want to go back and make a chicken?"
The corners of Song Ning's mouth trembled, and he also gave Dou Hua a thumbs up: "Incisive!" ”
actually commented on a talented woman.
"Of course." Dou Hua leaned in again, "What else do you want to ask?" ”
Song Ning casually asked him about last night's party, and Dou Hua said, "I drank one round and got drunk." ”
He drank poorly.
"Is there anyone who isn't drunk, can you tell me about it?"
Dou Hua wanted to talk about Lou Mingyu and Miao Qingan, but he didn't want Song Ning to look for them, so he said: "It's easy to find, you can come to Mingzhu to find me at any time." ”
Song Ning thanked him.
Hua leaned at her and squeezed his eyes at Song Ning, "Do you want to go now?" ”
Song Ning said with a smile: "I still have something to investigate, I'll bother later." She walked to the backyard after her words, Dou Hua's eyes were full of joy and excitement, and he followed Song Ning with his tail wagging his tail, and after walking more than a dozen steps, Song Ning suddenly stopped and looked at him, not knowing what he said, he hung his head and left with his tail between his legs, "Then you remember to come to me, I am in the academy." ”
Duan Yi whispered in Shen Wenyu's ear: "Dou Hua's brain is broken? ”
Shen Wenyu glanced at him expressionlessly.
"Am I saying the wrong thing again?" Duan Yi looked confused, he kept saying the wrong thing today!
He's obviously a smart guy.
Song Ning, Shen Wenyu and Duan Yi returned to Rosser's courtyard again, Lu Miaomiao sat on the threshold and ate osmanthus cake, Song Ning asked, "Who gave you the pastry?" ”
"It's Aunt Wang, she said she is the sister of Sister Wang, who sells meat in the vegetable market." Lu Miao Miao said.
Song Ning didn't ask again, a few people stood around Luo Miyun, and Lu Miaomiao continued to sit on the threshold and eat cakes.
Song Ning asked Shen Wenyu: "Su Moruke said that she heard movement at night, was it Jin Guangyu who opened the door for Ma Xuewu in the morning?" ”
Shen Wenyu replied: "Su Moru said that she slept deeply and never heard the movement. Jin Guangyu accompanied the two stewards of the annex to dinner last night and drank some wine. He originally planned to go to the other side to accompany Hu Qingyuan, but as soon as he leaned on the bedside, he fell asleep, and when he woke up in the morning, Ma Xuewu was already in the house. ”
Duan Yi looked surprised: "Meaning, Ma Xuewu entered the mansion by himself?" ”
"This matter has to be confirmed with Ma Xuewu, but according to Jin Guangyu's meaning, he did not open the door to Ma Xuewu."
Qiao Si said: "I'll go find Ma Xuewu." ”
"Then it's kind of interesting." Song Ning and Shen Wenyu said, "Can you invite the two cooks again?" ”
"I'll go!" Lu Miaomiao raised her hand, "They're in the kitchen." ”
He pedaled away, Song Ning and Shen Wenyu said that song, Hu Qingyuan understood, Shen Wenyu said suspiciously: "Dissatisfied with the status quo? ”
He thought of Dou Hua's words, at least on the surface, and he couldn't imagine what reason Rosser had to be dissatisfied with the status quo.
"Shen Zhutou, Miss Song!" Two cooks came over in Hufu, one surnamed Wang, is the sister of Sister Wang of the vegetable market, she does not live in the mansion and belongs to the helper, and the other surnamed Liu, whose widowed daughter married in her early years, she works alone in Hufu and lives here.
"Aunt Liu, you live in the inverted seat, do you know when Ma Xuewu enters the mansion in the morning?"
Aunt Liu nodded: "I know, he was entering the house when I went to buy vegetables, and we passed by." By the time I returned, there had been an accident at home. ”
"Ma Xuewu came in from the front door, who opened the door for him?" Shen Wenyu asked.
Aunt Liu looked surprised: "Isn't it the golden steward, he lives in the outer courtyard." If it weren't for him, I wouldn't know. ”
"Mr. didn't come back last night, will you leave the door for Mr."
Aunt Liu said: "Mr. said that he would not come back, otherwise Steward Jin or Miss Yun would accompany Mr. to go, so as not to drink and no one will take care of him." After a pause, he said, "Definitely won't stay at the door, who can not close the door in the middle of the night!" ”
Song Ning nodded: "Thank you." ”
Aunt Liu left first, Song Ning looked at Aunt Wang, and said with a smile: "I wanted to go to the vegetable market in the morning, but I didn't expect to see you directly." ”
"What time did you come to the house in the morning, and was the door open when you came?"
"I came late today, the door was open when I came, and I closed the door casually, and when I entered the inner courtyard, the two young ladies were crying, and I knew that something was wrong." Aunt Wang said.
Song Ning and Shen Wenyu glanced at each other.
"I have something that I originally wanted to tell you," Aunt Wang said in a suppressed voice, "Wu Ziyi, you all remember, right?" ”
Everyone didn't expect her to talk about the missing little guy, and they immediately gathered around and waited for her to speak.
"On the night of March 21, the night before he disappeared, I met him at the door before I went home, and he asked me to leave him a bowl of raw meat the next day, and he would make noodles to eat." Aunt Wang said, "I left him at noon the next day, and he didn't come back, until a few days later, everyone said that he was missing, and the clothes in his room were gone." ”
"Said he might go back to Hanzhong."
Aunt Wang shook her head and said, "Although he is from Hanzhong, he was abducted and sold a few times when he was six years old, he doesn't know where his home is, how can he go back?" ”
"Eight or nine is not far from ten, dead." Aunt Wang said.
Everyone looked at each other.
If it's true, then three people are dead!
