Fifth Round: Investigation
Early the next morning, Shangguan Mingxin came to the bank of the river. But to his surprise, there was a person who arrived earlier than him.
Drops of dew hung from the blades of grass, soaking the boots and bringing a chill. The young man, dressed in a crimson robe and a hood, seemed to be playing with his pet.
But in fact, Qianye was exchanging experiences with Doushabao. "Bean Shabao, as a proud dog, you must have a very sensitive sense of smell! Of course, your wisdom is immeasurable. Let's play a game and see who finds something useful in this meadow first. ”
The bean paste bun squealed twice, as if in agreement. So the two of them began to search the grass for something, and the specific range was based on the willow tree that was judged to be the scene of the murder.
After groping in the grass for a while, I suddenly heard the bean paste bag scream. Qian Ye frowned, only to realize that not far from her, a man in a black robe was standing. This person had only seen him yesterday, and although he looked ordinary, his eyes were extremely eye-catching. It seems that such a pair of frost-covered eyes should not appear in such an ordinary face.
Shangguan Mingxin saw that he had been discovered by the other party, so he no longer hid it, and walked over generously.
And at this moment, Qian Ye also straightened up, looked at the visitor, and said, "My lord really got up so early!" ”
Shangguan Mingxin also said: "It's not as early as Ah Ye's catch." ”
The corners of Qian Ye's eyes twitched, this 'Ah Ye catches fast' is what everyone is called, but being said by an unfamiliar person is really uncomfortable. "Last night, Xia Guan learned some new clues, and he plans to tell the adults after watching the scene."
The man with an ordinary face raised his eyebrows lightly, and his expression was slightly weird. "Tell me about it."
Qian Ye didn't pay attention to the other party's expression, but told the truth according to the news he found out last night.
After listening, Shangguan Mingxin was silent, as if he was thinking. As for his thoughts, Qianye didn't care, she just hoped that the other party would understand the case soon, so that she could give her a peaceful life.
"Ah Ye, what are you looking for here?"
The corners of Qianye's mouth twitched again, don't turn your head and don't look at those cold eyes. "Xia Guan guesses that there may be some discoveries here, and maybe some important evidence will be found."
This Qianye is really a malleable talent. I didn't expect to come to this Lecheng this time, and I had such a harvest. Shangguan Mingxin nodded and said, "Then let's look for it together." With that, without waiting for her refusal, he walked forward.
Qian Ye bared his teeth and grinned, and finally made a helpless expression at the bean paste bag. Alas, who let this be the big official among the six gates of the capital, she can't afford to mess with her!
The morning dew was a little cold, and even with thick boots, my socks were still wet. Qian Ye didn't have any self-consciousness, but it made Shangguan Ming look at her curiously several times. This person has fine skin and tender flesh in life, but I didn't expect that he can endure hardships and be patient.
How did Qian Ye know at this moment that the other party had praised her several times in her heart, she only knew that the two of them were definitely not suitable to stay together, and their natural aura was incompatible. I don't know who this person's surname is, and what kind of position he holds in the Six Doors, but it seems that several other people are very respectful to him, and his position must not be low! Speaking of which, the black clothes they wore should be the standard official robes of the six doors. The black pressure is really unpleasant. The black uniform she had worn in the SWAT team for so many years still looked better in crimson now.
Although the people in Lecheng didn't care about this case, the banks of the river were not as lively as before. Especially in this spring, in previous years, there would be a lot of people who went to enjoy the spring scenery and put paper kites, but now they can't see a single one.
Stretching his waist, Qian Ye squatted on the ground with a sad face. She still likes to wander the streets, happy and relaxed. Something like this looking for evidence in the grass really happened because she got up too early today and her head was not clear.
"Woohoo!" There was a cry of bean paste buns ahead. Qian Ye looked at it, and the bean paste bag didn't know what was being shaving in the grass.
"Doushabao, did you find anything?"
"Wow!" The bean paste bag wagged his tail and looked flattering.
Qian Ye looked at its claws, and there was clearly something. Squatted down and pinched it out of the grass, but saw that it was a very ordinary purse. However, she herself did not study this kind of thing, and she had never seen it in her days in Fuso. "The man in front, please come and have a look."
Shangguan Mingxin stepped forward to take the purse, looked at it carefully, and sniffed it close to his nose, saying, "This should be carried by the murderer." ”
"Huh?" It can't be such a coincidence! She and Doushabao just came to look for it casually, and they could hit such a big luck.
"Look at the style of this purse is worn by a woman, and there is a psychedelic smell in the purse." Seeing Qian Ye's puzzled face, he kindly explained.
"I see. It's just this one purse, how can you know the identity of this woman! ”
"Regarding this, I need Ah Ye's help quickly." With that, he threw the purse into her arms.
"Huh?" Qian Ye hurriedly caught it, such an important evidence as Xindao was treated like this, is this person reliable?
The purse in the hand is the most relatively ordinary pomegranate-shaped, embroidered with magpie Dengmei, the background color of the purse is lotus lotus, and the silk thread on the lock edge looks very ordinary. Reaching out to touch it, it seemed like there was something hard in it. Qian Ye untied the tether on the purse and found that it was a small mirror, as well as an equally small mahogany comb. And in it, there is also a crumpled piece of paper. At first glance, it was worn by the girl's family, and she even found two small silver ingots and a few copper plates from inside.
"Look at the pattern on this purse, it must be used by a young woman. I think there are so many women with names and surnames in Lecheng. And some people, the daughter's family will not use the purse. ”
This is also true, if the family is not rich, they are reluctant to embroider one. And looking at the embroidery thread on this purse, although she doesn't know how to embroider, she can also see that the price is not cheap.
"There are a total of three cloth villages in Lecheng, why don't you go and see them together." It's better that you don't come with you if you have something.
"It just so happened that the official was fine, so he went forward with you."
"Your Excellency, please." Damn it! I didn't open my mouth if I knew it. While Qian Ye choked his wrists, he didn't see a flash of laughter in the man's eyes.
It's been a long time since I've seen such an interesting person. On the surface, it looks impersonal and indifferent, but in fact it is not. If this person can come to the six gates, I think the future days will not be boring.
Qian Ye didn't know that in this moment's effort, he was labeled as interesting again.
There are three cloth villages in Lecheng, one of which is near the East Street Entrance of Heping Street. The other two are on Shun Lee Street and Fu Wah Street.
The Neicheng River is near Heping Street, so it is naturally the first place to go to Dongjiekou.
As soon as the boss of the cloth village saw Qian Ye coming, he greeted him with a smile. "Ah Ye catches quickly, I'm not busy today!"
Qian Ye nodded lightly and said, "There are some things I want to ask." Shopkeeper, you can recognize the embroidery thread on this purse and the embroidery cloth used. ”
The boss took it and saw that it was a woman's purse, and couldn't help but quip: "Ah Ye is about to reach this age!" ”
Qian Ye didn't speak, but his face was slightly embarrassed. "Please hurry up, this matter is very important."
The boss smiled and looked at it carefully, then shook his head and said, "This is not the cloth and embroidery thread in my shop. However, the embroidery on this purse is very ordinary, unlike the young lady of the rich family. But ah, the little mirror in here is a rare object. ”
"How so?" Qian Ye looked at the mirror. It is round, very small, made of copper, without a handle. On the back of the mirror, there is a sketch of a curly flower, and the mirror surface is very bright.
"Hehe, this daughter's things, Ah Ye naturally doesn't understand it. This mirror is the most popular water mirror nowadays. This mirror is made of precious white crystal, which is very precious. It's such a small mirror, and it costs about 180 taels of silver! And this is still a bad material, if it is high-quality, a mirror, can be worth a thousand gold. ”
