Hearing Zhao Zhutou say this, Mrs. Huang shouted loudly in panic: "Wronged, I have never done such things. ”

Zhao Zhutou asked sharply: "Then how do you explain the sweat medicine in the mezzanine of your jewelry box?" Why are your footprints on the dirt floor behind your eldest daughter's back window? ”

"I, I don't know. In this family, there are many people who hate me, and someone framed me! Zhao Zhutou, there is one thing I didn't want to talk about, but now I can't stop talking about it. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Actually, Wangmei asked me to go to her room last night."

"Huang Wangmei asked you to go? What's going on? ”

"Every afternoon, I go to the garden pavilion and sit for a while. Yesterday I saw a letter on the round stone table in the gazebo, and I opened it curiously, and it read: 'I already know your secret, and if you don't want me to tell your father, come to my room at night.' The signature on the letter is Wangmei. So, I went to look for Mei at night. ”

"Is the letter still there?"

"I'm worried that the old man will find out, so he will burn."

"What does the eldest daughter want to accuse you?"

Mrs. Huang's eyes were a little red, she lowered her head, took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and said sadly: "Before I entered the dust, I had a husband and a son, but then the family was too poor, so my husband sold me. ”

Lizi interjected angrily: "You gave birth to a child for him, and he still sold you!" How can you be so unconscionable! ”

"Girl, you haven't suffered hardship, I don't know what is going on in the days when you don't have the last meal, my ex-husband really has no choice. Later, God had eyes, and finally let me meet the master, and he ransomed me back. ”

Zhao Zhutou asked: "Since you have suffered so much, and fortunately Huang Yuanwai has a good life, why don't you treat the two girls well?" ”

"Zhao Zhutou, don't listen to rumors! I've never abused them. ”

"Have you secretly financed your own son?"

"I did carry my lord behind my back and secretly gave the money to my uncle and asked him to hand it over to my ex-husband."

"Does your ex-husband know about your marriage to Huang Yuanwai?"

"Yes, but he never looked for me, and we were in touch through my uncle."

"Is this what your eldest daughter talked to you about last night?"

"No, last night, Wangmei was a little surprised to see me go to her. I wasn't stupid, so I tested her, and when I saw that Wangmei didn't know, I didn't mention the letter. ”

"Is the handwriting of the letter the eldest daughter's?"

"Seems to be."

Zhao Zhutou said: "Mrs. Huang, there is no circumstantial evidence for what you said, so you can't believe it!" We have to look at the evidence when we handle the case, and at present, all the evidence shows that you are the murderer! Moreover, I also know your motive for killing: your secret is known to your eldest daughter, so you kill and kill people! ”

Mrs. Huang cried: "Wronged, Zhao Zhutou! I'm telling the truth! ”

Zhao Zhutou ordered: "Escort her back to the county jail and lock her up!" ”

After Mrs. Huang was escorted away, Zhao Zhutou saw that Bai Haohong was still frowning, so he asked, "The case has been solved, does Lord Bai think there is any problem?" ”

Bai Haohong replied: "I'm thinking, why did Mrs. Huang choose us to commit the crime when she was in her house, there are many people, if you are afraid of leaking the secret, you can stabilize the eldest daughter first, and then slowly think of a way." The murder is not in a hurry for these few days, unless there is a reason to kill the eldest daughter during this period. Bai Haohong took out the sachet and continued: "Also, who is this sachet?" Why did you stay in your eldest daughter's room? I have to think again. ”

"So, there are still unsolved mysteries."

"I'm tired of Zhao Zhutou to make arrangements, today, don't let the people of the Huang family go out, in the evening, you come again."

"Okay."

After Zhao Zhutou made some arrangements, he went back to the county office.

Bai Haohong returned to his guest room, Du Yiming and Bai Cheng had just gotten up, Bai Haohong told Du Yiming about Huang Wangmei's killing, and Du Yiming was very sad when he heard it. After dinner, Du Yiming basically regained his composure, he wanted to catch the real murderer, avenge Huang Wangmei, and took the initiative to find Lizi to analyze the case.

Liz said: "The real murderer is most likely Wanglan! ”

Du Yiming asked puzzledly, "Why?" ”

"Because, in future detective films, the murderer is the most unlikely person."

"I think you're a detective poison! According to your logic, the murderer should be Huang Yuanwai. He said that he drank sweat medicine, but in fact, he acted on his own, making others think that he was sleeping dead, but he actually committed a crime. ”

"What about Huang Yuanwai's motive for killing?"

"Then Wanglan has no motive."

In the evening, Zhao Zhutou came to Huang's house, Bai Haohong whispered to him, and Zhao Zhutou left Huang's house with all the people in the yamen.

At night, a man in black came to Huang Wanglan's house, knocked on the door twice, and Yahuan Lilac asked, "Who?" ”

The visitor replied, "It's me." ”

I heard Huang Wanglan say: "Turn off the lights, let him in, you go back to your room to rest." ”

Lilac blew out the light, opened the door, let the man in black in, and left. After the man in black entered the room, he vaguely saw Huang Wanglan lying on the bed, with a few rows of incense sticks in front of the bed, and he was about to walk over, when he heard Huang Wanglan say: "Don't come here, so as not to damage this exorcism array, I am afraid that my sister will come to me tonight, so I specially set up this exorcism array." ”

After the man in black came to the table and sat down, he asked softly, "What did the people of the Yamen ask?" ”

"They seem to know about your incense."

"Impossible! They're lying to you! After a night of incense, the smell should be very light, and besides, I put a sachet in your sister's house, even if you have a smart nose, it is impossible to smell the fragrance in the room. ”

"I'm so scared, I feel a little sorry for my sister."

"What's you're afraid of, it's all her own fault! It was she herself who felt that life was boring, and she wanted to die for a long time, and she had already discussed: after she committed suicide, she would be blamed for killing your stepmother. In this way, you will kill two birds with one stone, not only get rid of your stepmother, but also make you an only daughter. Your father is the only daughter left by his side, and when we get married, you will have a rich dowry. Who knows, after she met a little white face, she didn't want to die, and almost made our plan fall through, so you can only blame her for not keeping her promises, you don't have to feel guilty. ”

"But I think the government seems to be suspicious of this, so it's better for you to run away quickly."

"Escape? I helped you get rid of your stepmother, you don't want to cross the river and tear down the bridge, right? You're not a little involved in this project! After knowing your stepmother's secret, I also said to you: 'Your sister doesn't have to commit suicide, we can achieve our goal by blackmailing your stepmother.' But you answered: 'If my stepmother and sister die, I will be alone!' 'You're so much worse than I am!' We are two grasshoppers on one rope, and no one can escape! ”

As the man in black was talking, Huang Wanglan, who was lying on the bed, suddenly flew sideways towards the man in black in an incredible posture, and the man in black was still in shock, and the soft numb points on his body had been hit and he couldn't move. He looked closely and found that it was not Huang Wanglan standing in front of him, but a burly man, so he asked in surprise: "You, who are you?" ”

At this time, the door of the wardrobe opened, and Zhao Zhutou, who had been hiding inside, walked out and said, "He is Bai Haohong, the fourth rank of the imperial guard with a knife!" After speaking, he bowed his hand to Bai Haohong and praised him sincerely: "Lord Bai, your ventriloquist is really the pinnacle and unparalleled!" imitated the voice of the second girl, and even her good friend Fang Baojiu was deceived. ”
