Chapter 292. Mystery Man
The two people who were stunned were questioned separately by Chu Yunfei and Mei Yingxue, and then analyzed what the two people said to see if any clues could be found. Chu Yunfei felt that things might be much more serious than he imagined. The frightened woman, Yang, lives outside Bianliang City. A month ago, because my mother was unwell, I was taken back to my parents' house to live. Seeing that her mother's health was improving, she hurried home. Naturally, she didn't know anything about what was happening in the city, so she was dressed in red. If you know, I'm afraid you'll have to change your clothes anyway. However, it is not entirely a coincidence that she wears red clothes, because after all, she is going back to her parents' house to take care of her sick mother, so she is afraid of bringing her illness back to her home, and it is also to celebrate her mother's recovery, so she naturally chooses festive red clothes.
"Who knows about your return?" Chu Yunfei asked very seriously, he knew that things were not so simple, it must be because of the publicity in advance, so someone knew her route home.
"A few days ago, my mother-in-law had someone bring a message to my husband, and my husband ...... It's a gentleman in a private school.,It's going to participate in the scientific expedition between the big competitions.。 The woman looked arrogant when she mentioned her husband, but apparently she couldn't let go of what had happened before, and she continued, "You guys...... The person I caught just now is the murderer, right? Why haven't I heard anyone mention it before? The murderer...... I seem to have seen it somewhere, like ......"
"He's the butcher Zhou Da. Do you know each other? Mei Yingxue looked at him with a little surprise, and vaguely caught a glimmer of light.
The woman thought about it for a long time, and finally shook her head, and told Mei Yingxue with certainty that she was just looking at him familiarly, and she might have seen him a few times when she was shopping for vegetables, but she had absolutely no hatred with him.
"Does this prove that Zhou Da is the 'Red Devil', and there is no reason at all." Mei Yingxue told Chu Yunfei everything about the situation there, so as to confirm her judgment.
Chu Yunfei frowned, looking at Mei Ying, he seemed to have an indescribable sadness, and after a while, he shook his head and said reluctantly: "I'm afraid things are getting more and more complicated." Do you know what Chou Da said? He said...... Someone sent him a message, saying that Zhouda's stepmother ...... That is, the woman that Zhou's father met many years ago, will return to the city today. He had the faith, and that's why he was waiting for the woman there. ”
"What? Are you sure? Is it possible that Zhou Da is lying? Seeing that he was arrested, he just wanted to find a reason to exonerate himself, right? Mei Yingxue was a little puzzled, he looked at Mei Yingxue and said the doubts in his heart.
Chu Yunfei shook his head with certainty, "Actually, I thought so before. But now that we don't think so, the case may not be as simple as we think. Let's take it slow for now. Spread the word first. ”
Speaking of this, Chu Yunfei looked at Mei Yingxue with a wry smile: "Things are getting more and more complicated now. Don't you think it's weird? Since Zhou Da hated his father and his father's stepwife to the core, why didn't he do it before, but he wanted to pick this juncture? And also...... Don't you think it's weird? Why did this woman's route home know to Zhou Da? If someone hadn't deliberately arranged it, I'm afraid it wouldn't be such a coincidence, right? ”
"What do you think? Could it be that you want to ......," Mei Yingxue hurriedly asked.
"Let it be. The real murderer is unlikely to be able to sit still. Let's take a break. Chu Yunfei nodded, he felt that such an arrangement was the most suitable.
The news of the murderer's arrest spread after breakfast the next day, as if all the people had received first-hand information for a while, describing how they suspected Zhou Da. What's even more exaggerated is that many people have a sympathetic attitude to comfort Zhou Da's wife, but the purpose is to get more useful information from Zhou Da's wife, so more news of adding fuel and vinegar has been spread.
Even Xiuxin got the news and started to do business with joy. It was precisely because of the arrest of the murderer that the originally cold business became lively almost from the moment she opened the door. She couldn't get out, so she had to send a little girl over to inquire about the news, to decide if she wanted to buy more red cloth.
In contrast, the atmosphere in the yamen was much more tense. Chu Yunfei ordered Zhou Da to be locked up without saying a word, and no one was allowed to enter or leave without his order. And the victim, who was bent on returning home, was also temporarily left in the government office and handed over to the wife of Lord Yin to take care of. At this moment, he was questioning in the inner hall of the palace, and Zhou Da's wife, who was completely out of control, was sitting next to him. The woman made of water, it seems that this sentence is not bad at all, the tears of the woman in front of her seem to never be exhausted, and the tears of the beans are rolling down one by one. And Orchid, who had been temporarily summoned to appease the woman, had to hand her own handkerchief.
"You must be anxious to see your husband right now. But he had committed a felony and could not be seen by outsiders for the time being. If you want to help him, tell him everything you know. Only then will it be possible...... Really help your husband. After Zhou Da's wife finally calmed down a little, Chu Yunfei tried to make his voice sound softer.
Chu Yunfei has his own way of dealing with women, and he seems to have a natural ability to make women trust, so Zhou Da's wife quickly stopped sobbing, and she was stunned for a while, "My husband...... He doesn't kill. Although he is a butcher, he can't be said to be a murderer? To say that he wanted to kill that slut...... I'm talking about the woman my father-in-law married later, and that's not impossible. Because that slut is so hateful, my mother-in-law died at her hands...... Alas, you rulers will not believe these words. …… But that woman is really not a good thing, since she entered the door, grandpa and grandma were quickly angry with her, and passed away two years ago. There are only two people left, her and my father-in-law, happy and happy......"
Of course, grudges can't be formed in a day, not to mention that Zhou's mother had just entered the ground, and that woman entered the door of Zhou's family in a grand manner. Chu Yunfei could imagine that Zhou Da must have hated this woman very much, so he did not hide his hatred. But what if he began to hate the woman in red...... Judging from the clues found so far, he does not think that Zhou Da is the murderer, and even thinks that Zhou Da may just be used. It is worth noting that who reported to Zhou Dafeng may be able to find clues. But after thinking about it, if this matter was set up by the murderer, it would be absolutely impossible for that person to leave any clues.
