Niu Huaigu returned to the Department of Guards.

The back of his uniform was soaked with sweat, and his spirit was tired.

"I asked all the guys, and they said that they had dinner at eight o'clock, and everyone went back to their rooms. The inn where they live is a high-end room on the fifth floor, and the first and second floors are ordinary rooms.

Pei Jie lived on the fifth floor, and they watched him go upstairs. At about six o'clock in the morning, they saw him coming downstairs again. If Dr. Pei had seen him at 3 o'clock, he would have hurried back to Malacca and driven fast to the Johor causeway. "Niu Huai Ancient Road.

True or not, the clue is broken when it gets here.

Pei Cheng's words are not very credible, and there are no other witnesses.

Niu Huaigu said: "Send two people to Malacca, maybe you can find any clues." ”

Gu Qingzhou said: "Okay." You send someone, as soon as possible. ”

Niu Huaigu nodded.

Gu Qingzhou sat for a whole day and sorted out the information collected by Niu Huaigu.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Chief Bai invited her over.

He was concerned about the progress of the case and the attitude of the Pei family. Yesterday, Pei Jie wanted to make a move, but he was locked up by Gu Qingzhou, and the Pei family was very resistant.

Gu Qingzhou said: "It's okay." The whistleblower is their own, and the suspect is also theirs. They're more afraid of making a big fuss than we are. ”

Hearing this, Chief Bai furrowed his brows slightly.

After Gu Qingzhou said goodbye to him, he returned home.

She called out to the housekeeper.

"Help me contact people in China and ask them to check Bai Yuanye." Gu Qingzhou said, "He said that he is also from Nanjing, and he will check his life." ”

Butler Road is.

Gu Qingzhou had time to sit down and pick up a glass of ice water.

After Si Qiongzhi got off work, he came to Gu Qingzhou again, and he was very concerned about the progress of this case.

"There's no progress at all, it's a mess." Gu Qingzhou said.

She looked at Si Qiongzhi, did not pretend to be deaf and dumb, but pointed out directly: "Qiongzhi, are you worried that Dr. Pei will commit perjury if he kills someone?" ”

Si Qiongzhi was taken aback.

"You are obviously not suspicious, why are you so concerned about this matter? After you listened to Dr. Pei's words, you became even more nervous, didn't you feel it yourself? Gu Qingzhou asked.

Si Qiongzhi thought about it, she was indeed more worried.

That person, stripped of his glamorous appearance, is he a filthy heart?

"Sister-in-law, I made an appointment with Hu Qiao'er, and when I said the time and place, Dr. Pei happened to come in. As a result, when I got off work, Dr. Pei also happened to make an appointment with a friend.

Same restaurant, same time. I also glanced at him as I left, and he happened to be looking at us. Si Qiongzhi said.

There were already a lot of doubts in her heart.

She was wondering, could Pei Cheng be the murderer? If he was the murderer, then why did he kill?

If he was the murderer, why did he still believe Si Qiongzhi instead of taking the opportunity to blame her?

None of this is known.

"I'm a little too concerned." Si Qiongzhi asked in a low voice.

Gu Qingzhou asked, "Do you pay special attention to him?" ”

"Not really." Si Qiongzhi said truthfully, "His medical skills are really good, and he is also a decent person, and the teacher often asks me to be his assistant."

I was there for every major surgery he had. Over time, his presence will not be overlooked. Besides, didn't their family and our family almost get married? ”

These things ignited the thread in her heart.

She's just a pity.

Even if it has nothing to do with him, I don't want him to be a murderous demon.

Besides, the sister-in-law and Pei Cheng both said that the person who killed Hu Qiao'er was full of hatred for Hu Qiao'er. If he is really a murderer, why does he hate his younger siblings so much?

The hidden meaning contained in this made Si Qiongzhi shudder.

"It's okay." Gu Qingzhou said, "Paying attention to the better opposite sex is a very normal reaction, nothing special."

As for Pei Cheng, whether he is an upright witness or a sinister murderer still has to wait for the investigation of the police station. Hu Qiao'er is gone, the murderer already exists, no matter who he is, he can't be changed. ”

Si Qiongzhi nodded.

She restrained her thoughts and didn't pay any more attention.

Two days later, the people who had gone to Malacca to investigate returned.

The owner of the inn said that he remembered that there was such a group of people staying overnight. However, he didn't see anything unusual, he only remembered that the young master was there when they checked out and left. Said the policeman.

The investigation is at an impasse.

Niu Huaigu was overstretched, as if he had no strength to parry, and asked Gu Qingzhou: "Sir, what are you going to do?" In which direction to investigate? Continue to send people to Malacca to find out what happened that night, or focus on the street where the murder scene was located? ”

Gu Qingzhou was about to answer, but someone from the Pei family came.

It was the third master of the Pei family who came.

"I'm sorry, guys." The third old man had an arrogant attitude, "The news from the in-laws is here, and the second young grandmother must be buried in the ground first."

For the rest, you can check slowly, and we'll pick them up first. It's not that we don't give you the face of the Guardian Department, it's that you are acting that makes us uneasy. ”

The police station came to investigate Pei Jie, and sure enough, it triggered a backlash from the Pei family.

It's okay to find the murderer, but it's not very friendly to find his family.

Gu Qingzhou looked at the third master, and said with a straight face: "You mourn." Well, I'll go and see the old lady myself, and I'll have something to say to her. ”

The third master didn't care, he spread his hands.

Gu Qingzhou went to Pei's house and met the old lady of Pei's family.

The old lady didn't agree to take it back now.

However, others were indignant and refused to cooperate anymore.

"This is the second young master's idea, right?" Gu Qingzhou turned around directly and looked at Pei Jie, "Second Young Master, you heard clearly, this is a murder case."

We live in Singapore, which is ruled by the British, and the police station is a subordinate agency issued by the Governor's Office, and it is not child's play to be responsible for the murders.

The police station has not yet closed the case, and no one should think about shouldering the burden at this time. Second young master, there are quite a few reporters wandering around the Pei family and the door of the police station every day.

If you don't cooperate, I'll release the news and say that the tentative suspect is you. When the time comes, don't care what the truth is, Spit Xingzi will drown you and the Pei family first. ”

Everyone's faces changed in unison.

Pei Jie was even more angry: "You dare!" ”

"You can try!" Gu Qingzhou said.

Then she turned around, restrained the late lady's face, and said to the old lady with a pleasant face: "Old lady, the Pei family forcibly brought people back, alarming the Governor's Mansion, and we are even more passive."

The police in the Governor's Mansion are lazy, in case they casually put the murderer's hat on the second young master's head, the Pei family will no longer be able to tell.

The case stayed in the sub-bureau, and even if the sub-bureau wanted to find a substitute for the dead ghost, it would not dare to bully the Pei family. Let's check for ourselves, it's fairer, don't you say? ”

The old lady groaned, and finally nodded: "You're right. ”

When Gu Qingzhou left, the people present in the Pei family started talking.

This Mrs. Si has a good way of using both grace and power.

"Chief Bai must have guessed today, so he pulled Mrs. Si over first." Someone whispered.

This man knows the way the police investigate.

Chief Bai also knew.

Hu Qiao'er died, the problem was in the Pei family, and when the time came, the case was mixed up with the police station of the Governor's Palace, the British were held accountable, and Chief Bai and the Department of Guards were also condemned for poor supervision.

No matter who it was for, pulling Mrs. Si over first, it was indeed a suppression of the cow ghost's look.

Pei Jie's anger was blown up.

He followed Gu Qingzhou out and wanted to defend himself a few more words, but he saw a person standing at the end of the street and looked at this side cautiously.

Seeing that person, Pei Jie's face suddenly changed, and he no longer chased Gu Qingzhou. After Gu Qingzhou left, he went back to the house to rest for a while, and sat uncomfortably to hide his eyes, and it took a long time to find an excuse and go out in a panic.
