Chapter 69: The Murderer Is Hard to Find (3)
Gu Jin raised his eyes to look at him, and his face was not very good-looking.
"The housekeeper has been in charge of the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion for decades, and Geng Bao has been working in the Prime Minister's Mansion for a long time, do you know his character?"
Without waiting for the housekeeper to say why, Gu Jin smiled and spoke:
"Honest", after a pause, she thought of the most appropriate adjective: "Or honest." ”
"Just now I had a conversation with Geng Bao, his first reaction was that the food he made should not make the master unhappy, and when he mentioned the mushroom, his reaction was to send the mushroom to the Gu Mansion in the future. Is it normal? ”
The last three words are asked about the little maid and maid standing in the kitchen now.
The maids looked at each other, and then nodded in unison.
Normal, too normal, this is indeed the reaction of a person with a character like Geng Bao.
At this point, Prime Minister Wei Cheng and Wei Yuchuan also understood.
Gu Jin's eyes narrowed, she said so much, just to explain that Geng Bao was not suspicious, but in her eyes, just one look could capture the other party's thoughts.
Observing the art of people's hearts, she practiced it thoroughly.
"Okay, now that we understand, let's get started."
Everyone was stunned, start? What do you mean?
She looked back at Prime Minister Wei and saw that people had been standing in the kitchen, so she realized that the housekeeper had moved a chair, and only then did she turn around when Prime Minister Wei and Wei Yuchuan sat down.
It was clearly a girl's graceful outfit, but it made them feel a chill in their hearts.
Miss Gu's eyes seem to rhyme with a cold autumn breeze and can kill.
"You must be very confused, why did you detain you in this kitchen for no reason, without interrogation, without asking, only checking?"
The little maid looked at each other, and the tears on her face were not dry. The little guys were also confused in their hearts, and today's housekeepers for no reason gathered in Zhejiang, and then let others out, leaving only their group here.
They originally thought that the cook's cooking was not good, and they couldn't entertain the distinguished guest in the house, Miss Gu Jiaer, but they didn't want to let Geng Bao out in person, but they still stayed here, so ...... It's not a matter of food?
Gu Jin stared at the corner of her mouth as the nearest little girl, as if she really knew the art of people's hearts.
"Don't think too much, it's just about the food."
Everyone choked, what is the matter of the dish, the food is not delicious, you look for Geng Bao, what are you looking for us to do.
Gu Jin didn't make a sound, but reached out and picked up the white mushroom that Geng Bao had put down.
At this time, everyone was silent.
The people couldn't understand what Miss Gu Er was going to do, but the admiration of Prime Minister Wei and his daughter for Gu Jin in their hearts added another layer.
Speaking with evidence is the most direct means, and it is also the most difficult means to deny.
"Among you, who is responsible for helping the cook pick and wash the vegetables?"
As soon as these words came out, three little maids answered, and the remaining two were probably responsible for cleaning the dishes.
Gu Jin nodded and looked at the three people in front of him.
"When you pick and wash vegetables, do you think there's something wrong with this mushroom?"
The maid on the very edge blinked and was the first to answer.
"Miss Gu, today Master Geng instructed that there are distinguished guests from the house, and he wants to do some good hospitality, and he also said that he asked the slave to pick some fresh dishes, and the slave and maid looked for a circle, and saw that this mushroom was the freshest, and I didn't think there was anything strange."
Gu Jin nodded, didn't say anything, and waited for the second person to speak.
The maid next to her looked quite young, but she looked like twelve or thirteen, and she said timidly: "Miss Review, if you don't say that the slave and maid really can't feel it, you seem to remember what you said about the slave and maid." When washing the vegetables this morning, the slave felt that the mushroom was a little soft and treadful, and the slave thought it was not fresh, and when she heard Sister Xue Ling say that it was a dish that was only delivered yesterday, the slave didn't think much about it. ”
Xue Ling is the maid who picks vegetables.
When the white poison umbrella encounters water, it will indeed become softer, but it looks fresh on the outside, and when he heard this, Gu Jin nodded and looked at the remaining maid.
The man was quite conscious, and hurriedly spoke: "The slave also feels a little strange, today this mushroom looks soft and collapsed when it comes to the slave's hand, but it feels very tender when cut up, and the slave and maid also wonder where to get such a good white mushroom." ”
"Okay, I can save it." Gu Jin removed the basket of mushrooms from the maids and brought it to the little maid.
The kitchen door was open, and a cold wind swept in the rain, and the candles flickered.
I only heard the girl's clear voice rise again: "Which of you bought this basket of mushrooms?" ”
The three little priests looked at each other, and finally it was the man in the middle who took a step forward.
This person looked quite honest, and his words were also very sincere: "Miss Review, this is bought by a villain, is there any problem?" You're so furious. ”
Gu Jin smiled, not showing an unhappy look on her face because of his questioning, she simply explained the matter: "It's not a problem, it's just that this white poisonous umbrella is quite toxic, and it is mixed with this poisonous mushroom, if you let people eat it, it will really kill people." ”
