Chapter Seventy-Four: The Murderer of the Accident
Seeing Su Qin say this, An Jin nodded unknowingly, pointed to the food box on the side of the table and said, "Is this what General Lu brought over?" ”
Su Qin nodded and said, "Yes, this is what General Lu personally sent over." ”
An Jin walked over and opened the lid of the food box, looked at the dishes inside, and then closed the lid and said softly: "It looks good, but the preparation is quite fine." ”
Yang Ying nodded and said, "Yes, General Lu, he is very attentive." ”
An Jin shook his head and didn't speak, he walked to the desk and sat down, his heart sank for a long time, and then asked, "By the way, Zhou Xiyue, has she returned home?" ”
Yang Ying nodded and said, "Oh, yes, not long after you fell asleep, Zhou Xiyue had already left, and she looked a little bad when she left, and I don't know what she talked about with General Lu." ”
An Jin sighed softly and said, "Is this what it looks like?" ”
She shook her head slightly, stopped thinking about it, and picked up her somewhat dry brush to continue painting.
An Jin lay on the table and drew with his head stuffed for a while, then put down his pen and took the food box next to him and said to Yang Ying and Su Qin: "Since we have been waiting for so long, let's come to eat quickly, don't wait until the food is cold, it won't be delicious." ”
Yang Ying and Su Qin saw that An Jin was finally willing to touch Lu Yunjing's things, glanced at each other, looked at each other and smiled, An Jin noticed this small action of the two, and couldn't help asking, "What are you two doing?" Why are you laughing so weirdly? ”
Yang Ying and Su Qin were startled when they heard this, and hurriedly waved their hands to An Jin together, and said in unison: "Don't worry about Miss An, we just remembered a little thing. ”
Seeing the mysterious appearance of the two of them, An Jin shrugged his shoulders lightly and did not delve into it.
On the other side, Lu Yunjing put down the food box and left before he got up, just because he caught a glimpse in the room that the housekeeper he had sent out to investigate the arson before rushed back to the mansion with a hurried expression.
It's just that Yang Ying and Su Qin didn't notice this at all.
At this time, Lu Yunjing was sitting in the front hall, looking at the butler who was kneeling on one knee with a serious expression, and asked, "What did you find?" ”
The butler hesitated for a moment, and then said: "General Hui, since you ordered it yesterday, I have been secretly investigating the people who entered and left the mansion yesterday, but because the number of guests who came and went yesterday was too large, the speed of checking was a little slower for a while. ”
Lu Yunjing waved his hand and said, "That's okay, the important thing is what you found out?" ”
The butler took a light breath and continued: "General Hui, during today's inadvertent investigation, I found that there was one less subordinate in the mansion? ”
Lu Yunjing frowned and asked, "One person is missing?" ”
tube
Jia said respectfully: "Yes, after some investigation, I found that the fireman who had been in the fire room before was missing, and last night someone said that he saw the fireman running to the outer wall of the garden in a hurry. ”
"Last night, I remember that the man came over when you were questioning the attendants in the palace, and when I went to investigate again today, that person was gone."
Lu Yunjing frowned, pondered in his heart for a long time, and then asked, "According to your meaning, is that guy an arsonist?" ”
The butler shook his head slightly and said, "Although it is not yet certain, it can basically be said that there is an inextricable connection between the fireman and the arson last night. ”
Lu Yunjing said with great dissatisfaction: "However, such an important role, when you went to investigate today, he disappeared?" ”
When the housekeeper heard this, he suddenly said with some embarrassment: "Yes, when I went to investigate, the person was completely missing, and I learned from the mouth of the next person that the last time that the guy appeared was said to be last night when she told her sleepmate to get up and go to the thatched house at night, but she was seen by someone next to Miss An's burned bedroom." ”
Lu Yunjing involuntarily frowned and asked, "What is this guy doing there?" If I'm not mistaken, after we put out the fire there last night, there were only a few pillars left in the burned ground, and there was nothing left, so why did we go there? ”
The housekeeper shook his head slightly: "The villain is not very clear, speaking of which, general, that person has never been seen since he was seen in Miss An's burned bedroom, and the people who sleep with him also said that no one has seen him since he went out to the toilet under the pretext last night." ”
Lu Yunjing groaned for a long time, got up and said to the housekeeper kneeling in front of him: "Then you come with me to see what the mystery of Miss Anjin's bedroom is, it is obviously burned to ashes, and there are still people interested in it." ”
With that, Lu Yunjing got up and followed the attendant to get up and walk to An Jin's bedroom, where Lu Yunjing had not yet sent someone to clean up, for fear of the unexpected situation that he suddenly remembered to investigate.
The two stood in front of the ruins for a while, and Lu Yunjing sighed softly and said, "What is that guy running into this kind of ruin?" There were only a few charred beams left. ”
The housekeeper shook his head lightly on the side and said, "The villain doesn't know, otherwise...... The villain called Miss An over to ask? Miss An's words should be very familiar with her room, although we can't see anything from it, but Miss An may know a lot about it? ”
Lu Yunjing rubbed his chin and tilted his head to think about it, and then shook his head slightly: "Then forget it, that kind of thing just happened last night, and the doctor also said it himself, Miss An, she was traumatized, and she needs to recuperate recently, so she can't go out at will to be stimulated." ”
Saying,
Lu Yunjing threw away the piece of coke he was holding, stood up and said to the housekeeper, "Is there anything else around here besides Miss An's charred bedroom?" Anything else that catches someone's attention? ”
The butler shook his head slightly: "It stands to reason that there should be none......"
Lu Yunjing looked at the towering courtyard wall not far away, and then with all his luck, he climbed up the wall along the towering giant tree on the side, and the housekeeper standing on the side was startled, and hurriedly trotted all the way to the tree and shouted to Lu Yunjing: "General Lu!" Why did you suddenly run to that kind of place? Is there anything on it? ”
Lu Yunjing ignored the butler who was shouting at him below, he squatted on the wall and looked at the bloody handprint on the wall with a deep expression.
Lu Yunjing whispered to himself: "That guy, did you go out from here last night?" As a fireman, this kind of skill is a bit too good......"
"Moreover, it is difficult to say whether to go out or go in, and the most that can be determined is that the person has been in this place, facing the wall......"
Thinking so, Lu Yunjing jumped up slightly, turned over and jumped directly outside the wall, so frightened that the housekeeper who stayed below was taken aback, he hurriedly jumped up the tree, and climbed up the towering treetops like an ape.
At this time, Lu Yunjing was standing in the alley next to the outer wall and looking around, which happened to be an uninhabited alley next to the General's Mansion, and almost no one passed by here on weekdays, and coincidentally, it rained for a while at noon yesterday, because the surrounding areas were the back walls of the residents, the ground was still slightly damp at this time, and two rows of clear footprints were stretching along the somewhat gloomy alley to the street outside.
The butler jumped down from the wall lightly, and he almost fell to the ground, no matter what, the outer wall of General Lu Yunjing's mansion is still a little high, and it is not easy for any guy with martial arts to easily flip through, even the butler who is in the middle and upper echelons with the skills of the secret guard is a little difficult to climb over.
The housekeeper also saw the row of clear footprints on the ground, at this time Lu Yunjing had already followed the footprints to the outer street, and the footprints only extended to the outer street and disappeared, after all, the only place where the sun was blocked by the high wall was that alley, and the light on the outer street was still very good, and the light rain at noon did not take long to completely dry.
Standing at the mouth of the alley, not far away is the only teahouse near the General's Mansion, and it is also the only place where the secret guards are stationed near the General's Mansion.
Lu Yunjing groaned for a long time and walked towards the teahouse with the housekeeper.
The person in charge of the teahouse couldn't help but look a little nervous when he saw Lu Yunjing coming, Lu Yunjing was in a sensitive period of investigating the suspect at this time, and he keenly noticed the strange look on the person in charge's expression.
Lu Yunjing couldn't help but ask with a calm face, "What's wrong?" Did something unexpected happen? ”
The person in charge nodded slightly,
With some hesitation, he said, "Ah...... Yes, there was an accident, but General Lu, you are not investigating the accidental arson incident that happened in the mansion now, and now I am telling you about such a trivial matter that has nothing to do with it...... It seems a little out of place. ”
Lu Yunjing waved his hand and said, "Say it quickly, it's not you who I will judge whether it is appropriate or not." ”
Seeing that Lu Yunjing said this, the person in charge of the teahouse couldn't help but nod and said, "Obey the general's orders." ”
"Here's the thing, yesterday Lord Huang Wei took advantage of your birthday banquet to take leave and return home, saying that he wanted to visit his relatives, but Lord Huang's family already lived in Kyoto City, and he has not come back until now, General Lu, you should know that there are rules in the secret guard, even if you can take leave and go home, the vacation time must not exceed one day, and right now, the time is already considered overtime."
Lu Yunjing pondered for a long time: "You mean, did that guy from Huang Weijie betray the secret guard?" ”
The person in charge nodded lightly and said, "Yes, if you look at the previous code of conduct of the dark guard, you should be able to make this judgment." ”
Lu Yunjing didn't speak immediately, sorting out all possible clues in his heart, the disappearance of Lu Yunjing's firehead worker in the mansion last night, and the disappearance of Huang Weijie on the side of the secret guard, what kind of implication is there between these two things?
