Chapter 3 Clues
The neighbors are obviously not familiar with this family, they only know that there is a family of three living here, the male owner rarely goes out, Qiao Xi Shi often goes out to buy vegetables, and every time he sees the neighbors, he often greets each other. As for Yu Xueqing, most of the neighbors had only seen her once on the day they moved in, and she was still veiled over her face, and even now, they couldn't be sure if it was the daughter of the family, because it was obvious that the male owner was too enthusiastic about his daughter!
Will Yu Xueqing run away with the money after killing her parents? Homer boldly put forward such an idea.
This thought made Chu Yunfei laugh dumbly. This assumption is fanciful and unfounded. Because the Yu family's thousand taels of silver have not moved, if they run away with the money, how can they let go of the huge amount of silver. He decided that there must have been outsiders here, otherwise the Yu family's banquet would not have been explained.
The neighbors also didn't notice that people were coming in and out of their homes. Chu Yunfei's interest increased greatly, he walked around the small village a few times, and finally stopped by the river. Homer, who had been following him, looked at him in bewilderment. Chu Yunfei said with a smile: "The murderer will definitely not fall from the sky." I checked it carefully, and there are two roads here, one is a small road leading to the official road, and the other is a water road. Walking on the path is bound to be noticed, and the neighbors all say that they have never seen strangers here, so the only way for the murderer to enter Yu's house is by water. ”
This question made Homer's almost fanatical worship cool down quite a bit. He looked at Chu Yunfei in surprise, did he still want to investigate such a simple matter? He took it for granted that Chu Yunfei was a living immortal, as long as he glanced at the scene of the murder, he would immediately know who the murderer was! But looking at the way he is now, he is a lot worse than the detective in his mind!
Chu Yunfei seemed accustomed to Homer's reaction. His investigation continues. Soon, he learned from a boatman that someone had crossed the river the night before. The reason why the boatman remembers it so clearly is because the person who crossed the boat was very special: a man with a scar on his face and a melon-skin hat on his head, who once carried a sedan chair across the river. The man's face was too fierce, so he was deeply impressed. The boatman did not see the person in the sedan chair, but when the sedan chair came ashore, he found a pair of delicate embroidered shoes on the side of the boat where the sedan chair was parked, and he concluded that it must be a young lady sitting in the sedan chair. According to the boatman's recollection, the place where they went ashore was the state bridge in the city, and after they came ashore, they went all the way to the west.
Chu Yunfei took a closer look at the pair of shoes left behind, and through the style and embroidered flowers, he judged that it was definitely from the Yuan Ji shoe store in the city. Each pair of shoes sold by Yuen Kee Shoes is registered. Sure enough, according to the records in the ledger, the shoes were sold a week ago, and according to the recollection of the guy who sold the shoes, it was a man with a scar on his face who came to buy the shoes.
"A man with a scar on his face?" Homer was overjoyed, "It didn't take much effort to get it!" Such a distinct feature is certainly easy to spot out. Do you want Lord Yin to post a wanted notice throughout the city? ”
Chu Yunfei's face was a little solemn. He believes that the person who took Yu Xueqing away is very likely to be related to the Treasure Pavilion case. According to the previous two cases, coupled with the murder of the Yu couple, it can be determined that the murderer acted carefully, how could he leave such a big flaw for them? Maybe they did it on purpose, in order to mislead them.
"What then? If you don't, wouldn't there be no clue at all? "Homer was a little discouraged. At present, the entire government is troubled by this case, and two days have passed, and if they can't find any clues, I'm afraid that in the end, their lives will be difficult to protect.
Chu Yunfei waved his hand: "How can there be no clues?" There are so many clues waiting for you to follow. For now, we might as well make a big show of people with scars on their faces throughout the city, and make the bigger the move, the better. This is what Ho Catcher is best at, and you won't let me down, will you? ”
He Ma didn't quite understand what Chu Yunfei meant by this, but since it was Chu Yunfei's order, he still happily carried it out!
He Ma originally thought that Chu Yunfei would go all out to investigate this case. But he didn't expect that just when he was busy in the whole city, Chu Yunfei arrived at Liang Yuan and tasted the lychees paid by the southern kingdom in a leisurely manner. King Liang sat opposite him with a smile, looking at Chu Yunfei's appearance, he judged that this guy must be holding back a bad idea. When Chu Yunfei swallowed the tenth lychee, King Liang finally couldn't help but ask, "What do you fancy again, just open your mouth." ”
"List of lost items from the 'Treasure Chamber'." Chu Yunfei said slowly.
King Liang couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.
Chu Yunfei wiped his mouth: "You know, there are not many things that can be hidden from me in the whole world." The real boss of the Treasure Pavilion is you, otherwise you wouldn't be so enthusiastic, would you? The treasures in the pavilion, in addition to the list submitted to the government by the steward there, there must be some things that you don't want the government to know! I'm right, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to ask me out, would you? ”
King Liang laughed: "I can't hide anything from your eyes!" Yes, the Treasure Pavilion does have a portion of the king's treasure, the most precious of the stolen treasures...... In fact, it is the Jade Guanyin. ”
King Liang lowered his voice very low.
Chu Yunfei's face suddenly changed: "What did you say?" The world-famous Jade Guanyin? The prince is not so poor that he is ready to sell it, right? ”
King Liang smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's me who is too careless." You also know that Liang Yuan is far away in the suburbs, considering that the city is heavily guarded, the Treasure Pavilion is very close to the imperial city, and there are organs inside, so I stored it there. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen? It can only be said that the luck of the thieves is too good. ”
"Luck?" Chu Yunfei was stunned.
King Liang nodded, in his opinion, before the thief stolen, he probably didn't know that the rare treasure of Jade Guanyin was also in the store, because apart from him, there were very few people who knew that Jade Guanyin was hidden in the Treasure Pavilion.
"I really didn't expect this to happen. What I didn't expect was that Boss Yu's family was killed...... This is a real disaster from the sky. King Liang looked apologetic. This prince, who was born with a golden spoon, has no concept of money, he is more interested in people, "You said that Miss Yu's whereabouts are unknown?" Did something happen to her? ”
"The prince has seen Miss Yu?" Chu Yunfei asked in surprise.
"Not bad. This king once had a relationship with Miss Yu. King Liang's eyes lit up.
"Miss Yu is a big beauty?" Chu Yunfei hurriedly asked.
"How do you know?" King Liang was told by someone, and he was inevitably a little embarrassed.
Chu Yunfei sighed: "Just looking at the expression of the prince, you can guess that Miss Yu is definitely a big beauty, otherwise she would not have moved the prince who has read countless people." ”
King Liang nodded: "Not bad." That day, the king escorted the Jade Guanyin to the Treasure Pavilion, and by the way, he went to the 'If I Smell' shop, but he didn't expect to see Miss Yu. ”
The purpose of Chu Yunfei's trip has been achieved. Before leaving, he asked a strange question: What kind of shoes is Miss Yu wearing?
Liang Wangye was dumbfounded, although he was ** by nature, he was not a prodigal son, so naturally he would not be rude enough to check Yu Xueqing's shoes, but he could be sure of one thing: Yu Xueqing knew how to dress up very well, but when he saw that time, he could see that Xueqing's hairpin ornaments and costumes were carefully selected.
A teahouse on the west side of the royal street. Chu Yunfei was sipping a cup of tea, his eyes scanning the surroundings from time to time. After returning from Liang Yuan, he sat motionless in this teahouse. Just behind him, Li Yijian, who was dressed in disguise, was quietly observing him.
A sedan chair stopped at the entrance of Yujie Street, and a graceful and luxurious woman stepped out of the sedan chair, and then she entered an antique shop. After a while, the man who had entered the shop with the woman beckoned to the palanquin drivers and asked them to carry the palanquin to the door of the shop. Then, a large box was carried into the sedan chair, and a short time later, the woman walked out of the shop with the small box in her arms. The sedan chair was lifted and slowly walked south along the royal street.
Chu Yunfei's eyes lit up, and he said in a low voice: "I said...... Don't sit there and figure it out! Quick, get your people to keep up with that palanquin. ”
Li Yijian raised his head and was surprised to find that Chu Yunfei was talking to him. He didn't bother to ask too much, led people out of the teahouse, and followed the sedan chair out of the royal street.
"It's dangerous, it's dangerous!" Looking at the three people who rushed out of the teahouse at the same time, Chu Yunfei couldn't help but sigh: "I thought that Li Da Zhutou would go out in person, but I didn't expect him to bring three helpers!" ”
Li Yijian cautiously followed behind the sedan chair, followed for a long time, the sedan chair finally stopped in a secluded alley, the woman sitting in the sedan chair lifted the curtain and jumped out of the sedan chair, didn't care about tidying up the beads that were knocked around, rushed to the door, knocked on the door. The door opened, and someone poked his head out to look around, and then talked to the woman for a long time before letting the sedan chair in!
Li Yijian frowned, could it be that the sedan chair was carrying the stolen goods of the Treasure Pavilion? After hesitating for a while, he did not take immediate action and chose to return to the teahouse. At this time, Chu Yunfei was still leisurely sipping tea.
"Do you know they're thieves disguised as thieves to transfer stolen goods?" Li Yijian asked suspiciously.
Chu Yunfei said lightly: "I'm just a little skeptical, I can't be sure." You know, in addition to gold and silver treasures, there are also a lot of antiques and jade objects in the treasure cabinet. No matter how clever the opponent's calculations are, it is impossible to carry all those treasures away in a short period of time. I guess they must have hidden the treasure somewhere first. ”
Li Yijian's nose was almost crooked: "The wind is not tight? You even said that the wind is not tight? Now that He Ma has almost turned Kaifeng Mansion upside down, you still say that the wind is not tight? ”
