Chapter 100: I'll Be Your Hostage

When Xiao Chuyun and Yin Yunqi heard the news, they only felt very surprised, no one thought that Wan Shopkeeper Wan Fu would die, and what they didn't expect was why Wan Fu would appear in Luoying Villa.

When the two of them stepped into the Graceland Residence, it happened that everyone came out of the house, including Zhong Miaoqin, who saw him covering his nose with a handkerchief and hurriedly walking towards Jiang Yue's room.

Yin Mingchen, who followed closely, just sighed, shook his head and left, while Chu Zijin on the side looked indifferent, looked at Xiao Chuyun coldly, and left without saying anything.

Xiao Chuyun stopped, looked at the room in front of him, and couldn't help but wonder: "Bing'er, whose room is this?" ”

"The tiger is fast!" Bing'er replied with a bowed head.

"Huqing?!" Yin Yunqi and Xiao Chuyun said in unison.

With doubts, Xiao Chuyun walked over quickly, and as soon as she arrived at the door, Yin Yunqi suddenly stopped her, blocked her in front of her and said with concern: "It's bloody inside, you better not go in!" ”

Xiao Chuyun could hear what Yin Yunqi meant by this, although it was indeed enough to be scared in the mass grave, but in the face of the corpse, as long as it was not too terrifying, she could still bear it, after all, some things were still good to see with her own eyes.

Thinking of this, she took a long deep breath, got into it directly from Yin Yunqi's arm, and went straight to the room.

"Oh! Oh my God! Xiao Chuyun was suddenly frightened by everything in front of him, covered his eyes, and took a few steps back.

"It's all said to tell you not to come in!" Yin Yunqi walked quickly in front of Xiao Chuyun and said a little nervously.

Xiao Chuyun slowly withdrew his hand, swallowed his saliva, raised his head very arrogantly, and said with a little disgust in his eyes: "Hindsight!" ”

Xiao Chuyun, who had made mental preparations, turned around and looked at Shopkeeper Wan who was lying in a pool of blood, a dark yellow robe embroidered with copper coin patterns soaked in blood, and his head was outward and his feet were facing inwards on the ground.

In addition, there were rows of bloody footprints from the corpse to the window, and the blood on the windowsill was blown by the cold wind, and the ground was much faster to dry, and the color was darker than the window edge.

Walking forward, I looked from my feet to the broken neck, and I couldn't help but gasp.

"Yin Yunqi, let all the people in this courtyard just now come back, the murderer can't go far!"

"Are you sure?"

When Xiao Chuyun heard this, he didn't bother to turn around and talk to him, and while picking up the deceased's clenched fist, he said with a little impatience: "Yin Yunqi, don't talk nonsense, okay!" ”

When the words fell, Yin Yunqi walked out helplessly and innocently, while Xiao Chuyun found a piece of rag in his clenched fist, this patterned fabric was exactly the same as the clothes on the deceased's body, and it just matched the section on the neckline.

Looking at this rag, Xiao Chuyun felt a little more confident in his heart, holding the rag on his mobile phone, got up and slowly walked to the window to take a closer look at the outside.

turned around, but saw Bing'er standing at the door, staring at Xiao Chuyun, not daring to step forward.

"Bing'er, where is Huqing? Where is he? Xiao Chuyun looked at Bing'er and asked.

"I heard from the people that after surveying the scene, Tiger Hunt went out with people and has not yet returned." Bing'er lowered her head and said.

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Chuyun raised his feet and walked to Bing'er's side, instructed her to guard this place and not allow anyone to enter or leave, then turned around and walked out of the Graceland Residence and walked towards the back of the house.

Behind this house is a meadow, three zhang away is a dense green bamboo forest, because the night is dark, the bamboo forest is also a sight to see.

Taking advantage of the light in the room, Xiao Chuyun bent down to look at the grass that had just emerged, tender and green but without losing the tenacity of life, but even if it was tenacious, it could not withstand the word fragile, any move would make it stop growing, just like the one inside.

At this time, Yin Yunqi completed the task, stood in front of the window without saying a word, still looking at Xiao Chuyun with some grievances on his face, looking at her on the ground, where the light could reach the window, almost walking back and forth many times.

Reluctantly, she returned to the windowsill and pointed to the candle on the table in the room, but her gaze was

stayed on the grass until Yin Yunqi held the copper-colored candlestick and handed her the candle, and then she noticed that Yin Yunqi was standing in the house now.

"What is the little lady looking for?"

"Find clues!"

With that, he turned the candles and walked out of reach, and circled around them for many times, and found nothing but the new grass that had just grown, and the gray earth.

If you go any further, I'm afraid you'll have to go around the bamboo forest a few times.

Xiao Chuyun glanced back at the room behind her, she was not in a hurry to go back at this time, if all this was expected, the murderer must be among those people just now, then he should be in a hurry now.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chuyun walked around here a few times, and also took a few glances on the edge of the bamboo forest, and when he was about to go back, Huqing trotted over with a group of people, and after saluting Xiao Chuyun, he directly pointed to the women, children, and children behind him, and said anxiously: "County lord, this is Wanfu's family, and it was his subordinates who notified the brothers of the tiger and leopard rider and summoned them over, so that they could recognize this corpse." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Chuyun couldn't help but feel happy, and came to the conclusion that Huqing was not the murderer, and what was lying in this room was not killed by him.

Because if he killed him, there was no need to send someone to call Wanfu's family over in such a hurry, and he was so eager to explain that he wanted to minimize his suspicion.

"Then let me in!" Xiao Chuyun said expressionlessly.

As soon as he entered the Grace Garden Residence, he walked all the way to the door of the house under Chu Zijin's contempt, looked at the maids and servants in the hall with some unobtrusive masters, and finally fell on Uncle Yin's uncle Yin Mingchen, at least this person is still polite, unlike his wife Chu Zijin, who can only use these eight words to describe her: domineering, unreasonable, and brainless!

"Uncle Yin, please forgive the juniors for calling you and Aunt Yin over at this time and disturbing your rest, which is Chu Yun's fault." is the so-called three-point smile, and it is the same now, reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, it is always right to salute first and then soldier.

"The county lord is too modest......" Yin Mingchen didn't say much, just said these few words.

Xiao Chuyun smiled politely, and then said, "Uncle Yin, was everyone here just now?" ”

Yin Yunqi turned around and looked at everyone in the courtyard, then turned around and replied, "Yes, it's all here!" ”

Under the gaze of everyone, Xiao Chuyun walked to Wanfu's family, only to see a woman holding a handkerchief, looking at the people in the house and crying with pear blossoms and rain, if it wasn't for Bing'er blocking the door, she was afraid that she would have rushed in.

The woman was followed by a ten-year-old child, with a very cute round face, and a long-lived golden lock around his neck, and the old housekeeper on the side covered the child's eyes and held the child in his arms, for fear that this scene would frighten the child.

"Mrs. Wan, huh?" Xiao Chuyun asked.

Seeing that the woman nodded tearfully, she said again: "There are still evidence and clues in this house, so it is inconvenient for too many people to enter, so Madame will stand here and take a look!" so as not to be overly sad. ”

"County lord, my husband...... Why did he suffer from this poisonous hand, who did he provoke, he actually died without a body, who was so cruel! Woo woo woo ~ " Mrs. Wan said while crying as she went.

"Mrs. Wan, I think you should be clear about this question, after all, it is a couple who share the same bed, if there is anything wrong with him, you should be the first to find out. So you have to ask yourself and think about it! Xiao Chuyun looked at Mrs. Wan and said with a little sympathy in her tone.

At this time, Xiao Chuyun stood on the steps of the door and looked down, except for Yin Mingchen and his wife, some of the other maids and servants were afraid, some looked nervous, and some were hiding behind the crowd.

But after a moment, Mrs. Wan suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "County Lord, there is indeed something wrong with my husband these days......

"Tell me, what's wrong!"

"Because of the recent events in the money village, he was distressed, his hair was a lot grayer, and he was a little colder to me, just in the past few days, his attitude was much gentler, and he said a lot of words to me early yesterday morning, and gave me a pair of jade bracelets, and said that my mother's house is a good place, so that I can take Bao'er back to see,

I thought it was because the concubine was getting something bad, and he wanted to leave my home, but I didn't expect it...... I didn't expect it to be so ......"

Xiao Chuyun nodded after hearing this, glanced at everyone intentionally or unintentionally, and casually called the last few people in the crowd over with a finger of his hand, and said, "Mrs. Wan, do you know who the shopkeeper Wan has seen in the past few days?" Or with whom do you get into an argument? ”

Mrs. Wan lowered her head and thought for a moment, then shook her head, and said with a crying voice: "Husband never let me ask about the affairs of the money village, and rarely let me go to the front yard, but ......" paused, hesitated for a long time with a sad face before saying: "However, in the past few months, Husband has gone to Yunmenglou every once in a while, where he never stayed overnight, and he came back after curfew." ”

Yunmenglou? This Yunmenglou is really a good place! Characters like Zhong Miaoqin are not counted, they can also recognize fake silver tickets, and even the suspicious shopkeeper Wan frequently lingers back and forth, it seems that the water in it is also deep and terrifying.

Xiao Chuyun pretended to be relaxed and calm, raised his hand and gently patted Mrs. Wan's shoulder, and said softly: "Mrs. Wan doesn't need to cry and be sad in a hurry, and the dead inside may not be the shopkeeper Wan." ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Wan hurriedly grabbed Xiao Chuyun's hand as if she had grasped a life-saving straw, her eyes suddenly flashed with hope, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she said expectantly: "Is the county lord saying that my husband Wanfu is still alive?" It's not my husband who died inside, is it? ”

"Today, I took people to thoroughly investigate the Bliss Building, and found a lot of silver ticket stereotypes in the secret room of the agency, and the silver tickets that have not yet been made, they will not kill the shopkeeper in order to protect themselves, so it is not him who died inside." Xiao Chuyun said firmly.

As soon as the words fell, Chu Zijin on the side looked at him coldly, and said in a somewhat distrustful tone: "Jinyun County Lord, why are you sure that the death must not be Wanfu?" If you want to comfort Mrs. Wan, you can't say that the dead are alive! ”

Seeing the hope that Mrs. Wan had just ignited, Xiao Chuyun looked back at Chu Zijin and smiled, and said very calmly: "Then how can Aunt Yin be sure that it is the shopkeeper Wan who died?" Is it possible for a corpse without even a head to be determined by his clothes? Since it is impossible to determine, then why erase the fact that the shopkeeper is not dead! ”

Chu Zijin, who was blocked by this sentence, was speechless for an instant, so he had to glance at her with his sleeves and stand beside Yin Mingchen, with a dark face and no longer speaking.

"County Lord, didn't you just say that the people behind this scene will not kill the shopkeeper in order to protect themselves, but if it is not the shopkeeper who dies here, then why should the shopkeeper cheat to death?" Zhong Yaoqin said very lightly on the side.

At this time, Xiao Chuyun smiled at the corner of his mouth, turned to look at Mrs. Wan, gently took her arm, walked forward, and then pointed to the few people who were called out just now, and said, "Mrs. Wan, do you know the people here?" ”

Mrs. Wan raised her eyes and swept it, raised her hand and pointed to the fat middle-aged man in the middle and said, "He is next to his husband, and he often follows his husband to take care of the affairs of the money village, and the two are inseparable." ”

As soon as Mrs. Wan finished speaking, the man walked out, stood in front of the two of them, and first bowed respectfully. When he got up, he quickly pulled Xiao Chuyun from Mrs. Wan's side, holding the short knife dagger hidden in the cuff, and went straight to Xiao Chuyun's neck.

"Little lady!"

"Young lady!"

Seeing this, Yin Yunqi hurriedly pushed away Bing'er who was blocking the door, and hurriedly ran over, seeing that Xiao Chuyun's neck had been cut a shallow hole, and the oozing blood slowly flowed to the collarbone, and he couldn't speak when he was nervous, at this moment he was afraid that he would see the scene he didn't want to see.

I saw Yin Yunqi raise his hand and point at the person who held Xiao Chuyun hostage, and said angrily: "Wanfu! You let her go, and I'll be your hostage! If you dare to point a dagger at her again, I guarantee you will die a terrible death! ”
