Qu Fang didn't know anything about what happened that night.

In this regard, it is also very helpless.

Liyan carefully recalled, and the old man had talked about the cause of her death. She was covered with a quilt and then had words carved into her face.

Even if she sleeps very deeply, and when she is covered by a quilt and unable to breathe, she will definitely react.

But she said she didn't know anything.

"Did you eat with everyone that night?" Liyan asked.

"No, I ate with Lin Xi." She explains: "The two of us occasionally eat together. ”

"Do you both eat the same thing?"

Qu Fang was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is this matter very important?" ”

"Well, it's important."

Qu Fang looked at Liyan without saying anything, Liyan didn't understand a little, what was there to be embarrassed about.

"In her room, there are plates of snacks, and I eat them all."

"After eating a snack, do you ever feel unconvinced. Like, dizziness? Liyan hurriedly asked.

"Nope."

"Do you have a habit of incense?"

Qu Fang nodded and said, "This is natural, I can't stand the smell of rotten wood in this room." ”

In this regard, Liyan did not make any comment. Drugged in incense, this technique is not new. Besides, there are so many people in the troupe, Qu Fang doesn't look like a careful person, and it is estimated that she can't find that someone has done anything to her incense.

"Who bought your incense for you?" Liyan asked.

"It was given to me by Lin Xi."

"She gave it to you?"

Qu Fang bit her lip and said with a firm expression: "She gave it to me." ”

"Well, even if she gave it to you. So who else can touch those incense incense on weekdays besides you? ”

"When I was in the room, of course they didn't dare to move. However, I can't stay in my room all the time. ”

That is, she doesn't know who's going to touch her stuff anymore. Li Yan didn't feel that he could get any clues from Qu Fang at all, so he was not disappointed.

It was Chu Yi, he still refused to give up, he looked at Qu Fang and asked, "Did you really hear nothing?" ”

"Nope." Qu Fang's answer is still the same.

Her face was calm, which made Chu Yi very angry in his heart. They were obviously running for her, but she didn't care so much. Is this the difference between humans and ghosts?

"Can we go see Brother Rui now?"

She was stunned for a moment, she was like this, she didn't dare to take her to see Zhai Rui. After all, Zhai Rui is now with Lin Xi. If she sees it, maybe she will burst out and hurt people. She always can't control ghosts that are too emotional.

"I know that people and ghosts have different paths, I just want to meet Brother Rui, and I want to hear him say that he has not forgotten his promise to me. As long as I hear this, I will leave, and I will never pester him again. Qu Fang looked at Liyan and said seriously.

"Is that true?"

"Hmm." After speaking, Qu Fang nodded seriously.

"Then please go back and stay a little longer. We're going to him now. ”

Qu Fang happily returned to the jar.

Chu Yi said worriedly: "Then will Zhai Rui say these words to her?" ”

"He's lied to her once, and it's not bad this time. It doesn't hurt to let her rest in peace, and it doesn't hurt to lie to her. ”

Chu Yi's eyes widened and he looked at Liyan, "Is this okay?" ”

"If you can't do it, you have to do it, I think Zhai Rui shouldn't want to have a female ghost follow him for the rest of his life."

Chu Yi looked at Liyan in a daze, which sentence in her mouth was the truth? He was a little suspicious now, and what she had told him earlier was not true. It seems that it is better to find out the truth on your own.

"Let's go, let's go check on those two now."

"Didn't you say you were going to find Zhai Rui?"

"Where he is now, I don't know. They're always going to come back here anyway, so we'll just come back to them. ”

Although this is a little unfair to Qu Fang, I have to say that what she said is very reasonable, and Chu Yi was convinced.

So, the three of them went to find Li Wei.

"How? What did you find? She asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Not much, but we'll keep investigating. I will definitely give the class owner justice. ”

Li Wei shrugged and smiled, "Then I wish you all a good time." ”

Liyan smirked and asked, "Does anyone in the troupe understand medicine?" ”

The smile on Li Wei's face gradually faded, and she said coldly, "What are you asking for?" ”

"People will always get sick when they eat whole grains, and I think there may be someone here who understands medicine." Hu Zou said: "In this way, it's more convenient, isn't it?" ”

"Before Zhai Rui entered the troupe, he used to be an apprentice pharmacist." Li Wei said.

Chu Yi was surprised: "Then why didn't he continue to study medicine?" ”

"He was picked up by the class master, and when he picked it up, his right hand tendon was broken." Li Wei sighed and said, "Such a beautiful pair of hands was abolished like that." ”

"At that time, we also asked him what was going on. He didn't tell us, though. It's just that, when I heard it later, it was because he didn't want to be with some people and dirty the people's money. That's why they hacked it. ”

"Why don't you report to the police?" Chu Yi asked.

Li Wei sneered and said, "Report to the official? If he doesn't report to the official, he still has a way to live, and if he does, he is afraid that he will lose his life. ”

"You haven't even tried, how do you know it's impossible?"

Li Wei didn't answer Chu Yi again, she just looked at Liyan, "Do you think we should report to the official too?" ”

"It's happened, he's made his choice. Nowadays, it's useless to say more, is it? ”

Li Wei looked at Liyan, and then at Chu Yi. dog

"You're right, it's happened. No amount of words can change what has become a fact. She looked up at the beams and said, "What else do you have to ask, I still have a lot to do." ”

Liyan smiled and said, "No, we're leaving." ”

Although Qu Fang has a bad temperament, she is not guilty of death. I hope you can find the murderer and give her justice. ”

"Okay."

After coming out of the troupe, Chu Yi's mood was very low.

Although he had never seen Zhai Rui, he also felt a little sorry when he thought of what happened to him. If he hadn't been plotted, he probably wouldn't have encountered these things.

"Qu Fang's death, will it be related to Zhai Rui?"

Liyan glanced at him and didn't speak. Zhai Rui knows how to use medicine, which really increases his suspicion. But since he has been an apprentice, he should understand the truth of the doctor's benevolence, and he should not kill people at will.

Along the way, they found out that the wife of the man with the word gambler engraved on his face had worked in the troupe.

It's just that a few days ago, the man was drunk and accidentally broke her arm. That's why she didn't appear in the troupe.

"Both of them are related to the troupe, this shouldn't be a coincidence.

Li Yan glanced at Chu Yi helplessly, if he could investigate alone, then they could know if this was a coincidence.

"Let's go to their house first."

There was a white lantern hanging in front of the house, and it was easy to find.

"Dangdang."

The door soon opened, and it was a child, with a bun, about ten years old. His eyes were red, as if he had just cried.

"I don't know you, who are you looking for?" The child asked in a hoarse voice.

Liyan said softly: "We are here to investigate the cause of your father's death, he ......"

The child sharply interrupted: "He's dead, just let him die, can't you?" Why are you still asking us questions? ”

Liyan waited quietly for the child to finish venting, and watched her expression gradually calm down. The cheeks, which were red from anger, slowly returned to normal.

"Do you like the class master?" Liyan asked.

The child looked at Liyan with red eyes and nodded slightly.

"Uncle the class owner has always been very good to me and my mother, and I have paid my mother a lot of money every time. I go to work, and he will pay me. The class owner is a good person, and my mother said that killing people is a bad thing. Class master, he will definitely not kill anyone. ”

"We're here to find out about it. You can help us too, okay? ”

The child looked at Liyan, and Liyan also looked at her seriously.

In the end, the child slowly nodded and agreed.

"Then can you take us to your mother?"

"Come with me."

Zhou was short in stature and haggard. Moreover, not only did she have a wound on her arm, but the bruises on her face had not yet dissipated, which was terrifying.

"Lan Lan, who are these people?" Zhou asked softly.

"They said they could give the class owner a clean slate."

Zhou Shi hurriedly said: "A few of you, please take a seat, I'll go make tea." ”

Liyan waved his hand and said, "No need, let's ask a few questions and leave." ”

Lan Lan looked at Zhou and said in a low voice, "You have a good rest, I'll go make tea." ”

Zhou stretched out his uninjured hand, as if to stop her. However, Lan Lan didn't give her this opportunity, and she ran away as soon as she slipped away.

"Lan Lan is a good boy, it's just that her father has done some bad things in the past. Lan Lan is too young, there are many things she doesn't understand. ”

Chu Yi didn't understand a little, the man had beaten her like this, and she was still speaking for him.

No matter how he is, he is Lan Lan's father after all. He lives, and our family is complete. Now that he's dead, the home is incomplete. Zhou lamented.

Liyan comforted her softly.

"Got a few laughs."

She didn't speak, she looked at the door, and said in a low voice, "Excuse me, before the accident, was anything unusual happening?" ”

Zhou glanced at his injured arm and slowly lowered his head.

"He drank, as usual, and went to gamble, and nothing strange happened."

Chu Yi couldn't help but glance at her injured arm again, as well as the wound on her face. Did those hits before he drank, or after that?

"Where did you get your injuries?" Liyan asked softly.

"With that money, I was going to pull a piece of cloth to make new clothes for Lan Lan." Zhou said in a low voice.

Li Yan and Chu Yi glanced at each other, and their eyes were full of unbearability. Liyan really doesn't want to ask anymore, and she doesn't like to do this kind of thing that exposes people's scars.

"He drank, gambled, and beat me at every turn, and everyone thought he deserved to die. Sometimes, I want to kill him. Zhou choked up and said, "However, he was not like this before." When we first got married, he was very nice to me, really nice. He has a job, and if anyone has a problem, he will go to help. At that time, everyone said he was a good person. Every time he came back from work, he would bring me osmanthus cake. ”

Zhou gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and continued: "I am pregnant with Lan Lan, I am very happy, I eat and vomit. One night, I said I wanted to drink chicken soup. Without saying a word, he got up and killed the chicken. When he had finished killing the chickens, I fell asleep again. Early the next morning, I drank chicken soup. ”

"At that time, I thought that I must have done a lot of good things in my last life to let me meet such a good man."

After Lan Lan was born, he worked harder. He said that he wanted to earn a large dowry for Lan Lan. He must watch her and marry her beautifully. ”

Zhou said with red eyes: "After Lan Lan will leave, he often takes Lan Lan to the street to play. As long as Lan Lan wants it, he will buy it for him. Lan Lan was sick when she was a child, and she always refused to drink medicine, and she didn't listen to me when I talked about her. He brought a bowl of water and drank it with her. In this way, Lan Lan drank the medicine. ”

"When Lan Lan was five years old, when she was playing with someone outside, she was pushed and accidentally broke her palm." Zhou said with tears in his eyes: "Children play outside, bumps and bumps are common. As long as it is not broken, no one will hold it accountable. But he, in order to prevent those children from bullying Lan Lan, stared at those children every day. It wasn't until Lan Lan became the child king that no one dared to mess with her anymore, and he was relieved. Zhou stopped, took out a handkerchief, and wiped his tears.

"And then?" Liyan asked softly.

"Later." Zhou's voice was sad and desperate, "Later, a friend of his came to our house to borrow money. He is a very righteous person. A friend borrowed money, and he gave it happily. ”

But the man didn't pay him back. He also told him that he had a very good way to make money. He doesn't need to work for others anymore, and it won't take too long for him to earn enough for Lan Lan's dowry. ”

"The man took him to the gambling house." Off the beaten track.

"He really won some money at first." Zhou closed his eyes and said, "Now that I think about it, I hope he didn't win that money at that time." If he hadn't won the money, he probably wouldn't have been caught up in it. ”

Gradually, he could no longer win money, and all the money he had won was lost. Soon, he began to use the money he had saved. Zhou covered his face and said in a trembling voice: "A place like a gambling house is a bottomless pit. Even if you have a lot of money, there will be a day when you will lose it. All the money he earns is spent on it. But no matter how he loses, no matter how we persuade him, he thinks he will win the next one. ”

Li Yan suddenly remembered a ghost he had encountered in the gambling house before, even if he died, he still thought about gambling, and he still felt that he could win. Gambling addiction is really terrible.
