Chapter 221: The House
Yu Chijin stretched out his hand and touched Zhuo Yu's head, expressing appeasement, and said, "It's okay, I understand." ”
Zhuo Yu looked at Yu Chijin's sudden tenderness, and his heart became extremely soft inexplicably.
"Okay, then I'll give you this jade pendant first, and you can see if there's anything wrong."
Early the next morning, Zhuo Yu couldn't wait to knock on the door of Yu Chijin's room, she really wanted to know what had happened. Yu Chijin opened the door a little lazily, and the clothes on his body were not neatly draped on his body. Yu Chi Jin is a somewhat ascetic type, coupled with this kind of dressing, outsiders are afraid that they will have nosebleeds.
Zhuo Yu swallowed a mouthful of spit, looking at Yu Chi Jin's appearance was really beautiful, and his brain couldn't help but want to think about something.
"What's the matter with me?" Yu Chi Jin sat on a stool and poured a cup of tea for him and Zhuo Yu.
Zhuo Yu hurriedly retracted his gaze and asked, "I want to ask what was wrong with the jade pendant yesterday." ”
Yu Chi Jin took a sip of tea and said slowly: "It seems ordinary, but it is also abnormal." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"This jade pendant, I also wore it before, and I would dream of some strange things at night."
"And after that?"
"At that time, you would have dreamed of some strange things, but last night I wore this jade pendant to sleep, but I didn't dream all night. Do you say strange? ”
Zhuo Yu didn't believe that this jade pendant was so peculiar, and he couldn't remember what the previous dream was, so he said, "Is this jade pendant so magical?" ”
Yu Chi Jin glanced at Zhuo Yu and didn't say much. After all, she had forgotten to be clean, so it was better not to dwell on the previous problems.
"Today, you go to the Yamen with me, and I want to check the files here." Yu Chi Jin said and tidied up the clothes on his body in front of Zhuo Yu.
Zhuo Yu also looked at Yu Chijin with courage, such a good-looking man, don't look at it in vain.
"Okay, but why do you suddenly want to go through the files here?" Zhuo Yu was puzzled.
"The passer-by also mentioned that Madame Butterfly has lived here for a long time, and if this case is really related to her, then there should be some similar murders in the closed room over the years."
"I see." Zhuo Yu said.
The two packed up for a moment and set off for the yamen, and Wei Chijin asked people to move all the criminal files of previous years to carefully investigate the more strange cases in these years one by one.
He and Zhuo Yu turned over all morning, but they didn't have any eyebrows. This town is not a big place, so there are not so many cases. There haven't been any murders in a locked room here, but there seem to be a lot of missing people here.
Although this Shu land is safe and secure, there will be so many people who disappear every year. The people here are close to the mountains, and if they are eaten by the beasts of the mountains, it is reasonable. But the people here have lived here for generations, and they are very experienced in the wild. The number of missing people is still a bit high.
If I'm not mistaken, these missing people were not all attacked by beasts, but by this Madame Butterfly.
Looking at the description in this volume, about a dozen people go missing every year. In this way, I will eat one person a month. This time, the county ordered a family of dozens of people, and I am afraid that it will be convenient for a while and a half.
"But what exactly is she doing this, you say?" Hearing Yu Chijin's analysis, Zhuo Yu asked rhetorically.
Raising so many harmful things, you should always want to do something, so that you don't want to hurt people so much.
Her question was also what Wei Chi Jin was puzzled about, and he didn't know what the purpose of this Madame Butterfly was, but no matter what, they should go and investigate. For convenience, Zhuo Yu also changed into men's clothes here in the yamen.
After the two came out of the yamen, they went straight to Madame Butterfly's house. This time, it took a long time to knock on the door before reluctantly looking at the door. Zhuo Yu directly revealed his identity this time and told the maid that he was from the yamen, and the maid was a little flustered, so she immediately invited the two of them in.
Not long after Zhuo Yu and Yu Chi Jin entered, they happened to see the woman coming out of the back garden last night, and after looking at the two of them, they said to the maid on the side: "Didn't you say that I didn't see a guest?" Why do you still bring outsiders in? ”
"Madame was angry, they said they were from the yamen, so they had to bring them in."
Madame Butterfly looked the two of them up and down, and said coldly: "My lord, the little girl just takes care of her flowers and plants all day long, and she doesn't know what she has done to make the adults so concerned. ”
It was the first time Zhuo Yu saw this woman's appearance at such a close distance, this woman's skin was very slippery and beautiful, and her body seemed to exude a faint fragrance. With a beautiful face, she looks like an iceberg beauty. This Madame Butterfly's temperament is also excellent, which makes Zhuo Yu feel a little embarrassed when she sees it.
"That's the kind of lady, something has happened these days, and we are also handling the case impartially, and I hope that Mrs. will understand." Zhuo Yu said respectfully.
The Madame Butterfly looked at Zhuo Yu and asked, "Oh? I don't know what the adults want to know, but the little woman will definitely cooperate with the adults. ”
Zhuo Yu smiled: "I wonder if Madame can lead the two of us brothers to the back garden to have a look?" ”
"Why, don't you want to visit my garden under the gimmick of handling the case?" Madame Butterfly's expression changed.
"Naturally not, I hope that Mrs. will cooperate."
Madame Butterfly looked at them with some disdain, and said, "Come with me." He took Yu Chi Jin and Zhuo Yu into the back garden.
Before Zhuo Yu stepped into this garden, the familiar fragrance came to his face. She looked at the colorful flowers that filled the yard, completely different from the view she had seen last night.
I don't know if it's my own illusion, but the range of these flowers is also a lot more than what I saw last night, which is very peculiar.
Zhuo Yu looked down at those words carefully, and found that there was nothing unusual. She looked at Yu Chi Jin and found that his face was as confused as her own.
Could it be that everything that happened last night was fake? The garden is full of life now, and it is completely different from what I saw yesterday.
"Have you seen enough?" Madame Butterfly asked on the side, and Zhuo Yu felt a little embarrassed, so she said that she was already optimistic.
"If the adults have nothing else to do, then please go back, the little girl has to take care of these flowers." Madame Butterfly then issued an eviction order.
"I don't know when did you come here, ma'am?" Yu Chi Jin suddenly spoke.
Madame Butterfly glanced at Wei Chi Jin a little strangely, looking at the face that looked like a living person, and she also had some doubts in her heart. He said, "It's been seven or eight years." ”
