Xie Jinlan's gaze swept over the three of them, and then said, "How many people remember, what is the surname of the masked man?" ”

When the three of them were stunned, Ruan Yezhen on the side suddenly exclaimed:

"White! Therefore, it is very likely that the masked man is one of the Bai brothers! So you mean to say that the murderer is now hiding in Tongfengpu? Feng Ange covers his whereabouts for him? So, the murderer didn't pretend to be the deceased? ”

After a pause, she felt that something was wrong: "However, there is no news of anyone missing in the town?" ”

Xie Jinlan glanced at her casually, and then looked at Lu Renjia: "Has Lord Lu already thought about what to do next?" ”

Lu Renjia bowed slightly: "Not bad!" ”

Then he looked at Jiang Huaming on the side:

"Jiang Zhutou, you take people to each Qinglou to investigate carefully to see if anyone is missing. and secretly investigated who the Bai brothers had ever feuded with, and secretly stared at Feng Ange's every move. ”

Jiang Huaming stopped the chaotic thoughts in his head, bowed his hand, and left the hall by himself.

At this time, Tang Anyu said: "Two adults, there is still something unclear about the humble position. If it is really Feng Ange harboring the murderer. How can the murderer be sure that no one will report the disappearance of the deceased? ”

Ruan Yezhen's earnest gaze suddenly fell directly on Xie Jinlan's body, which was exactly what she wanted to ask.

Xie Jinlan's gaze seemed to inadvertently sweep over Ruan Yezhen, and after exchanging a look with Lu Renjia, he asked without answering:

"Tang Chengzuo, if someone reports to the official, what about this case?"

Tang Anyu was slightly stunned, and his thoughts suddenly became clear: "I see!"

Then he bowed deeply to the two: "I have been taught!" ”

Ruan Yezhen looked at the tacit appearance of the three of them, and couldn't help but wonder even more.

When Xie Jinlan returned to the inn and stayed alone in the room, her doubts poured out:

"Xie Jinlan, what kind of dumb riddle did you play in the county government before? Why is the deceased missing but no one reporting it? Why are you not surprised by this? And how did the murderer know that no one reported the deceased's disappearance? ”

When Ruan Yezhen's voice fell, Xie Jinlan looked at her meaningfully: "Miss Ruan, has your second brother ever mentioned to you about the matter in the Qinglou?" ”

Ruan Yezhen let out a light 'ah', then blushed slightly and shook her head: "Naturally not." If the second brother really told me this, I was afraid that the eldest brother would have his leg discounted. ”

Xie Jinlan was not surprised to hear such an answer: "In this way, it is not surprising that you will have these questions. ”

Ruan Yezhen became more and more confused the more she listened: "Xie Jinlan, what are you going to say?" ”

Xie Jinlan smiled:

"Miss Ruan is afraid that she doesn't know, although this Qinglou is a place of wind and moon, a gentleman's gentle township. But the curves and curves in it are no less than the backyards of rich and noble families. If a competitive opponent goes missing, they will only applaud. How can you want the other party back?

As for how the killer expected this...... As far as I can tell, the killer must have anticipated both. Even if someone goes to the county office to report that someone is missing, who can expect that person to be dead?

For the murderer, the worst case scenario is to be found out that he stole a beam and killed the deceased. Rao is like this, and he has already found a way out for himself. ”

After Ruan Yezhen slowly digested these words, she asked uncertainly: "So the so-called retreat in your mouth is Feng Ange?" ”

Xie Jinlan bowed slightly: "Not bad!" ”

Ruan Yezhen still didn't understand: "But, how can you be sure that the murderer has something to do with Feng Ange?" Just because the murderer claims to be surnamed Bai? What if the surname was just a casual one? ”

The corners of Xie Jinlan's mouth hooked slightly: "Naturally, it's more than that." ”

Ruan Yezhen's eyes were puzzled.

Xie Jinlan said: "Do you still remember, how Feng Ange introduced the young man in the painting? ”

Ruan Yezhen thought about it for a moment and said, "A playmate when I was a child. What, what's wrong with that? ”

Xie Jinlan asked again: "Then have you ever noticed her demeanor when she said this?" ”

Ruan Yezhen's eyebrows frowned slightly, and her eyes were slightly closed. Suddenly, her eyes opened with a little uncertainty:

"It seems to bring a bit of nostalgia. There is nothing surprising about this. The boy in the painting should be Bai Siyuan. The two of them haven't seen each other for many years, and it's inevitable that they will miss each other. ”

Xie Jinlan said: "She deliberately concealed the identity of the person in the painting. ”

Ruan Yezhen was slightly stunned: "How can you say this?" ”

Xie Jinlan said:

Her answer was too simple. It is said that this Tongfeng shop belongs to Bai Siyuan, and if ordinary people answer, they should add a sentence 'He is the owner of Tongfeng Shop'.

Her back was straight, her fists were slightly tightened, and her eyes were rolling very quickly. When a person is vigilant, he will subconsciously make these actions. ”

Ruan Yezhen's eyes widened in disbelief: "Xie Jinlan, in that breath, you saw so much?" ”

Immediately, she suddenly realized: "So she is a thief." ”

Xie Jinlan smiled: "Yes! ”

Ruan Yezhen was still a little puzzled: "But, why did the murderer say that his surname was Bai?" Is it too confident? ”

Xie Jinlan shook his head slightly: "Definitely!" Fiction is real, reality is virtual. Only by being false and real can we confuse others more. ”

Ruan Yezhen nodded as if she didn't understand, and then clapped her hands with a smile: "In this way, the murderer should be caught soon, and the case will be closed soon!" That's great! ”

"Knock knock!"

"Childe, can Mo Yan come in?"

At this time, Mo Yan's voice with a bit of concern came from outside the door.

Xie Jinlan had already guessed why the other party came to him, and after sighing secretly, he said, "Come in." ”

After closing the door, Mo Yan knelt down in front of Xie Jinlan.

Ruan Yezhen was taken aback, but looking at Xie Jinlan's expression, it was as if she had expected it a long time ago. She didn't say a word and waited to see what happened.

I saw Mo Yan straighten his back and look at Xie Jinlan fixedly:

"Childe, Mo Yan has never expected you to believe in Mo Yan without reservation. In Mo Yan's heart, as long as you can do well, this is more important than anything else. Mo Yan thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to ask Gongzi for a guarantee, and hoped that Gongzi would agree. ”

Xie Jinlan lowered his eyes slightly, and said lightly: "You talk about it first." ”

Mo Yan's eyes must be: "Mo Yan hopes that if the son wants to do anything dangerous in the future, he can inform and bring Mo Yan." Don't risk your life alone. ”

Xie Jinlan glanced at Mo Yan deeply, but slowly shook his head: "I can't promise you." ”

Mo Yan was suddenly anxious: "Childe! ”

Xie Jinlan raised his hand to stop it, and said, "This matter is non-negotiable. If nothing else, stand down. ”

Mo Yan was not too surprised, and still knelt down: "If the son does not agree to Mo Yan's request, Mo Yan will not be able to kneel for a long time!" ”
