Chapter 466: A Ball in Your Stomach
Leng Yue's words made the already depressing atmosphere in the room suddenly become even more weird.
Ye Jiuchen frowned and looked at Leng Yue, and his wife on the side couldn't help but step forward to ask.
"This girl, you...... What did you say? ”
"I just checked that the windows in the room are closed and locked from the inside, and if you and the child came in from the outside, as you said, then it means that the door was also locked at that time.
Your father-in-law was killed in a completely sealed room, but when you came in, you didn't see anyone else, did you? ”
His wife's eyes widened, she looked at Leng Yue as if she didn't understand, and nodded confusedly.
"Yes! Yes! ”
Leng Yue didn't answer, but suddenly turned her gaze at the shopkeeper and Xiao Er who were standing aside.
"During this time, has anyone been in and out of the inn?"
When the shopkeeper heard this, he hurriedly replied solemnly: "No, I have received a total of several of your guests today, and now they are all here!" ”
When Ye Jiuchen heard this, he couldn't help but add a sentence to Leng Yue.
"It's in the middle of nowhere, with a wide view of the area, and there's no place to hide.
If according to what the shopkeeper said, then the murderer ......"
Halfway through speaking, Ye Jiuchen suddenly paused and hid the other half of the remainder.
Leng Yue nodded tacitly.
The wife, the shopkeeper, Xiao Er and the cloth merchants on the side heard it in a fog.
"How's the murderer? Who is the murderer? ”
When his wife heard this, she couldn't help but ask.
Leng Yue's keen and calm gaze swept over the faces of several people present one by one, and then slowly spoke without hurrying or being salty.
"The murderer is the person in this inn!"
The firm tone and calm tone made the atmosphere in the room fall to the bottom again.
The shopkeeper and Xiao Er are in a hurry.
"The two guest officers can't talk nonsense, my inn has been open for more than ten years, and there has never been an accident, as long as the merchants have stayed once, they will stay here next time."
"Shopkeeper, don't worry!"
Seeing that the shopkeeper was in a hurry to justify, Leng Yue was too lazy to take care of it, but Ye Jiuchen couldn't help but say something to appease him.
"Murderers, two are not murderers!"
Hearing Ye Jiuchen say this, the shopkeeper and Xiao Er immediately patted their chests and exhaled a long breath as if relieved.
On the other side, the wife cried again.
"Who the hell is it? Who did such a poisonous hand to my father-in-law, how can we orphans and widows live in the future! ”
Leng Yue was annoyed by crying, and then swept over with a cold eye knife.
"Don't cry, if you cry again, your husband won't survive!"
Wife: "......"
Everyone: "......"
Although it makes a lot of sense, what does it sound so awkward?
The shopkeeper had completely calmed down at this time, and walked cautiously and slightly flattering to Ye Jiuchen: "Guest officer, your lady just said that the murderer is in this inn, but there are only a few people in this inn.
Who is the murderer?
And, didn't you just say that this is a completely confined space? Who...... recklessly?"
"I don't know!"
The shopkeeper asked Ye Jiuchen for help, but before Ye Jiuchen could speak, Leng Yue, who was blocked by him, had already taken the lead.
Just kidding, she's not a quick detective, how do you know who the murderer is, and in the secret room, she doesn't even understand the killer's methods!
The shopkeeper was still full of expectations, but when he heard Leng Yue say this, he suddenly wilted like a frosted eggplant.
However, the shopkeeper himself also knew that he pinned his hopes on Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen, and it was not a wise move for two strangers to do so, so he was just depressed for a moment, and he quickly cheered up.
"I've caused trouble to a few guest officials, I have already reported to the official, and the people from the government will come tomorrow, and I bother you to stay here for a few days, and then go on the road when the government clarifies the case.
The cost of these days will be borne by the small shop, and it will not be early, so go back and rest first. ”
"What did you say?"
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, the first to blow up were the cloth merchants.
"You're going to let us stay a few more days? Why? ”
"That's right! We didn't kill the people, we are in a hurry to send this batch of goods to the south, if it is too late, do you know how much we will lose? ”
"That is, will you compensate for our losses?"
“……”
A few cloth merchants shouted and shouted, which really made Leng Yue have a headache.
Moreover, she didn't plan to really wait for the people from the government to come over and find out the case before leaving.
After all, the war has already started, and there is no time to delay, and they will have to leave early tomorrow morning.
Thinking of this, Leng Yue couldn't help but glared at the cloth merchants with a pair of eyes that were as deep as an ancient well, unwavering but cold and abnormal.
With just one glance, several people involuntarily silenced.
They can be regarded as traveling from south to north, reading countless people, and it is the first time in their lives to see a woman's gaze, so terrifying!
Ye Jiuchen's face at this time was not very good-looking, with an angular face, gloomy as if a storm was about to fall, which made people shudder.
He really can't afford to delay now.
Originally, he didn't want Leng Yue to be too involved, after all, the murder was handled by people from the government, and Leng Yue, even if she was a mother, she was also measured to empathize with the child and her mother.
The most important thing is that the murderer is among them, they are in the light, the murderer is in the dark, and he really doesn't want Leng Yue to be in such danger.
Whether it is said that he is cold-blooded, or that he has no compassion, in short, anyone and anything in this world, as long as it is not related to the cold moon, as long as it is not related to the cold moon, he can stand by and watch.
After all, what is the lack of him in this world?
If it was Ye Jiuchen in the past, when he encountered such a thing, I am afraid that he would not even take a second look.
But since Leng Yue appeared and entered his life, the hard-hearted, cold-blooded and ruthless Ye Jiuchen gradually began to have a little warmth.
Just, it's a point!
But now, things are involved, and they have to delay their trip.
Thinking of this, Ye Jiuchen couldn't help but take a step forward, took Leng Yue's hand, pursed his lips and was about to turn away.
Leng Yue glanced at Ye Jiuchen fixedly, didn't speak, just remained silent, and let Ye Jiuchen take her away.
When several cloth merchants saw Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen leaving, they immediately had confidence again, and began to reason with the shopkeeper, and their wives were all six gods for a while, and they began to cry again.
In an instant, the sound of theory, the sound of argument, and the sound of crying came and went, and it was especially clear in the room of the inn that was not very soundproof.
Leng Yue had a tense face, and the clouds were thick.
After Ye Jiuchen went to the next room to see the turnip and the boy, as soon as he returned to the room, he saw Leng Yue's cold aura lingering around his body.
At the bottom of my heart, a trace of guilt suddenly rose.
"Yue'er, I'm sorry."
Leng Yue was annoyed in her heart, and suddenly heard Ye Jiuchen say this, and couldn't help but be stunned.
"Who you killed?"
Otherwise, what are you doing with an apology?
Ye Jiuchen: "......"
Leng Yue's words really made Ye Jiuchen stunned, he really couldn't understand how Leng Yue thought of this.
"It's not you!"
Without waiting for Ye Jiuchen to react, Leng Yue had already come to a self-denial first.
Ye Jiuchen was with her all night, so he went out to wash his feet, and he didn't have time to kill people.
Besides, her little demon wants to kill someone, so she needs to work so hard?
It's just a joke!
Ye Jiuchen looked at Leng Yue with a serious look, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile helplessly, raised his hand on Leng Yue's forehead, and knocked it coldly.
Leng Yue: "What are you doing?" ”
"I've really wanted to see what's going on in your head more than once."
Leng Yue blinked twice: "I'm wondering if we should find out the murderer." ”
Ye Jiuchen paused: "Do you want to?" ”
"It's so annoying, don't let me sleep!"
Ye Jiuchen: "......"
"And it's delaying business!"
Ye Jiuchen thought for a while, and again: "......"
He really didn't expect that Leng Yue wanted to take care of one thing, not because of the sense of mission that ordinary people understand, human life is greater than the sky, but now, ordinary people will not take it to heart, thinking that small things can no longer be small.
Ye Jiuchen raised his hand a little helplessly and rubbed the top of Leng Yue's hair.
"Good!"
"Huh?"
"I said okay, if you want to check, I'll accompany you!"
"But don't you like to be nosy?"
"You don't like it either!"
For this, Leng Yue does not deny it.
But now that this incident has seriously affected her eating, sleeping, going to the toilet and traveling, it is not an idle matter.
And......
Even if she denies it again, she is no longer as indifferent and ice-like as she used to be, and she is full of big guys.
Therefore, having a ball in your stomach is sometimes not a good thing!
In the room where the murder occurred, the shopkeeper and Xiao Er were still comforting the cloth merchants, and the wife was still kneeling beside her husband's corpse and crying, Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen
They glanced at each other.
The moment they looked at each other, the two read each other's thoughts from each other's eyes.
Ye Jiuchen smiled: "You also thought of it?" ”
Leng Yue: "I'm not stupid! ”
Ye Jiuchen still just laughed, and did not feel the slightest anger and displeasure because of Leng Yue's angry rebuttal.
The two swaggered back to the scene of the murder side by side, walking with the steps of not recognizing their six relatives, which made the people present stunned in place.
Aren't these two gone?
How did you come back again?
Leng Yue ignored everyone's gaze and carefully examined the scene again.
If you want to find out who the murderer is, you must first figure out the murderer's modus operandi.
Murder in a secret room seems strange and incomprehensible, but everything in this world, as long as it has been done, will leave traces.
The difference is, you can't spot it.
She didn't believe that she was killed, a person killed someone in a closed room, and then everyone evaporated from the world without knowing it!
