Chapter 295: A Flower Girl
Before Jiang Yi could speak, Yu Jin said categorically: "No!" β
He got up and stared at Chu Chu condescendingly, full of displeasure: "You don't want to make such excessive demands because of my fiancΓ©e's kindness." Since someone is chasing you, your whereabouts will be exposed at any time, so why don't you want to involve my fiancΓ©e in it? Besides, there is nothing in this world for no reason, and there must be a reason why those people hunt you down. β
Speaking of this, Yu Jin smiled coldly: "Maybe you know it yourself, but you just pretended to be innocent to win sympathy." β
"I didn't pretend to be innocent, a person who chased me said 'Who made me hear something I shouldn't have heard', I don't even know who those people are, what can I ......know" The anger on Chu Chu's face disappeared, and he shook his head self-deprecatingly, "That's it, I went too far, and it has nothing to do with you." β
She slowly got up and tugged at the corner of Jiang Yi's lips: "Anyway, I'm sorry for today's incident, and thank you for letting me out of trouble temporarily." β
She didn't say goodbye, nor did she look at Yu Jin, and slowly walked towards the door.
Jiang seemed to be staring at Chu Chu's back, and the fire and light stones figured out what that strange thought was: if what Chu Chu said was true, would it ...... Could it be that the two men in the Baiyun Temple did not give up tracking down the person who overheard their conversation, and then recognized the wrong person for some reason......
Jiang Ru's gaze at Chu Chu suddenly became subtle.
If she didn't guess wrong, wouldn't Chu Chu have prevented her from harm?
Thinking about it this way, Jiang seems to certainly not be able to let people go like this with a clear conscience, although her conscience is limited......
"Wait."
Chu Chu's footsteps stopped and turned back.
"You can stay here for a while."
Yu Jin and Chu Chu were both surprised.
"Ahh
Jiang Ru said in a low voice: "I have my plan, I'll talk to you later." β
Able to do the hijacking of a stranger's carriage, Chu Chu is certainly not a stupid and upright person, and after a little hesitation, he accepted Jiang's retention, and said solemnly: "I owe you a favor, and I will pay it back later." β
Jiang didn't seem embarrassed to accept this, and said lightly: "Come with me." β
This house is the most common kind of small quadrangle, with wing rooms on the left and right, a total of three main rooms, a hall for hospitality in the middle, a living room in the east room, and a study in the west room.
Jiang seemed to lead Chu Chu directly to the East House.
"Miss Chu Chu is resting here, no one has used this bedding and bed sheets after they have been changed."
Chu Chu hesitated a little: "Then you-"
Jiang seemed to smile slightly: "Of course I don't live here." β
Chu Chu thanked him and sat down along the edge of the bed.
Jiang Ru turned around and returned to the hall and poured a glass of water and handed it to Chu Chu: "It's a little cold, Miss Chu Chu will just take a moment, and I'll ask someone to boil some hot water for you later." β
Seeing Chu Chu drink the half-lukewarm water in one go, Jiang Yi asked, "Are you injured?" β
Chu Chu paused his hand, pinched the water cup and smiled bitterly: "I have been bitten by a group of inexplicable mad dogs for so many days, and it is good to be able to survive." β
Jiang didn't seem to be sure if that guess was right, of course he couldn't admit anything, so he went to find Yu Jin after a few words of persuasion.
After settling Chu Chu, Yu Qi was still waiting for an explanation.
"Let's go for a walk in the yard."
The trees in the yard have begun to turn bald, and the dead leaves fall when the night breeze blows.
Ah Fei was boiling water in the kitchen, Lao Qin was squatting under the tree and didn't know what to think, and Leng Ying simply disappeared, as if he had never appeared.
Jiang Ru and Yu Jin walked to the stone table under the tree, and Lao Qin consciously got up and squatted to the root of the wall.
"How did you keep people?" Yu Jin propped up the stone table with both hands, leaned forward slightly, and his eyes were dark.
Jiang seemed to pick up a fallen leaf on the stone table and play with it, feeling that it was a bit ridiculous to say this, and he probably could say it without scruples in front of Yu Qi.
"I suspect that the people who chased and killed Miss Chu Chu were wrong, and maybe they were going to hunt and kill...... I. β
Yu Jin wanted to laugh but was really in no mood, so he listened silently.
Jiang seemed to crush the dead leaves at his fingertips and threw them into the wind, and asked Yu Jin: "I still remember that I said that I heard the conversation between two people in Baiyun Temple, I avoided it at that time, and then I thought about it, it was raining that day, and even if you are careful, it is difficult not to leave traces." If those two men had found my footprints, they would have guessed that it was the woman who heard their conversation......"
"So they found Miss Chu Chu?" Yu Jin felt that Jiang seemed to be thinking too much for a while.
There is no such coincidence in this world.
"Ah, don't always take the blame on yourself."
Jiang seemed to sigh: "But that day, Miss Chuchu saved the child and showed good skills, if she was seen by those two people, it was very easy to be misunderstood." In any case, since there is such a possibility, I cannot be indifferent to what happened to Miss Chu Chu. β
I don't kill Beren, Beren died because of me, and she doesn't want to bear her sins.
"Okay, if you want to keep people, you can stay, and I just followed this line to check. If it was really the two people you heard the conversation about Miss Chu Chu, maybe you could figure out why they were plotting against me. β
After chatting about Chu Chu's affairs, Jiang seemed to remember what Yu Jin said earlier: "There is a flower girl killed in Jinshui River?" β
Yu Jin didn't talk about the case before because he was afraid that Jiang was afraid, and when he saw her ask, he no longer concealed it: "So far, four flower girls have been killed, all of them are flower girls on the small and medium-sized flower boats, and one of them has a holiday with the top Yingying of the Yanchun class, and I am looking for Yingying tonight to ask about this." β
Jiang seemed to be quite surprised: "It's not a trivial matter to die four flower girls, but I didn't see anything unusual when I saw that bustard tonight." β
Yu Jin sneered: "Of course they don't want to make a big deal out of it. The arson case not long ago has become an unsolved case, and if the flower girl was killed, people are afraid who will dare to come chic. β
Human life is like grass, the flower girl on the Jinshui River died when she died, and she directly tied a stone and threw it into the river, saving even the broken mat.
However, just in time to catch up with the heat of the arson case of the painting boat not long ago, the Yang family of Shangshu Mansion was unwilling to become an unsolved case and kept an eye on it.
"It's so late, I'll send you back. Don't come here for the time being, so as not to get into trouble. As for Miss Chuchu, I will let people take care of it. β
"Then I'll give Ah Fei an explanation."
Since the person who ransomed Yu'er is likely to be a street bastard, Ah Fei may have a clue, although Jiang seems to ask Yu Jin, he is unwilling to give up any possibility.
Yu Jin sent Jiang Qi back to the palace, but found that Long Dan came back first.
"Coming back so early?" Yu raised his eyebrows.
With his understanding of Long Dan, shouldn't he wait until tomorrow morning to come to him to report?
Long Dan looked strange: "Master, the little one met a flower girl......"
"Hmm." Yu Jin listened expressionlessly.
Long Dan's expression became more and more strange: "Master, that flower girl looks...... It's kind of like a ginger girl......"
Yu Jin's expression suddenly became solemn, and he asked in a deep voice: "Which painting boat?" β
