Chapter 73: Arrest
Ling Xiaoxiao, who was about to go to the kitchen to find something to eat, ran into Moying on the way, and he was in a hurry.
"Ink Shadow." Ling Xiaoxiao said hello.
When Mo Ying saw the comer, he stepped forward and said, "I was going to look for you, and I met you here." β
Ling Xiaoxiao was puzzled and asked, "What are you looking for me?" β
"Cuong has found it." Ink Shadow replied.
Hearing this, Ling Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, "Really? "I didn't expect it to be so soon.
Mo Ying nodded, "Now we have people watching, but we also need to be fast, otherwise if people run away, the gains outweigh the losses." β
At this time, Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't care if he was hungry or not, he directly pulled Mo Ying and walked out, and didn't notice Gu Yu in the courtyard, Gu Yu looked at the action of the two holding each other, his brows frowned slightly, he was thinking, it seems that Mo Ying has been a little too idle recently, and Mo Ying who is heading to the destination is unconsciously shivering......
About half an hour, Ling Xiaoxiao and Mo Ying came to their destination, she never expected that it would be in this place.
In the backyard of the dilapidated thatched house, a man facing a scholar knelt in front of Wen Jie's grave, a grave made of stones, the man looked sadly at the tombstone made of wood, and cried bitterly, "Wen Jie, why did it become like this?" I've only been gone for a few days, how did you end up like this? Didn't you say you'd wait for me to come back and take you away? When he left a few days ago, it was clear that the two had already discussed, and when the limelight passed, he took her out of here and lived a carefree life, but after only a few days, a good person was lying cold under the stones at this time.
The man cried intermittently, not far away, Ling Xiaoxiao heard the man's self-talk, and Mo Ying glanced at each other, judging from the situation in front of him, it seemed that the man had nothing to do with Wen Jie's death?
With a deep face, Ling Xiaoxiao fell into deep thought, it seemed that things were far more complicated than she thought.
"Tiny." Ink Shadow reminded cautiously.
Ling Xiaoxiao came back to her senses, followed the direction where Moying was looking, and saw that the man wanted to get up and had plans to leave, Ling Xiaoxiao no longer hid aside, and said closely: "You are Ah Qiang?" β
When Cuong saw someone suddenly appear, he sat down on the ground in fright, and when he saw someone asking, he replied blankly: "Yes, who are you?" β
"We are friends with Wen Jie." Ling Xiaoxiao said.
Hearing that the person who came was Wen Jie's friend, Ah Qiang's face softened, but he was still vigilant, "Why are you here?" β
Ling Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, and he said sharply: "This sentence should be me asking you, why are you here so late, or is Wen Jie's death actually related to you?" β
As soon as Ling Xiaoxiao's words fell, Ah Qiang retorted: "You are talking nonsense, how could I kill Wen Jie? I'd rather hurt myself than hurt her, I don't even know what's going on. Cuong's cheeks flushed with excitement.
"What is the explanation of what Wen Jie said about you before she died?" Ling Xiaoxiao continued to ask.
Hearing this, Ah Qiang was very emotional, stood up, and rushed to Ling Xiaoxiao's face, but fortunately Mo Ying stepped forward to stop him, "Do you know how Wen Jie died?" What did she say? β
Ling Xiaoxiao frowned, it didn't look like she had guessed before, judging from Ah Qiang's state, it seemed that Wen Jie's death really had nothing to do with him, but who killed Wen Jie?
"If you want to find the murderer who killed Wen Jie, I hope you will try your best to cooperate with me and tell me everything you know."
Of course, Ah Qiang knew what was going on, but this matter was about his reputation, although he wanted to find out the murderer who killed Wen Jie, but he was still suspicious of the two people in front of him.
"I don't know what you're talking about?" Ah Qiang replied weakly.
At present, it seems that Ah Qiang is not going to confess the truth, Ling Xiaoxiao snorted coldly and looked at the grave of the stone pile, "Wen Jie, this is the man you fancied, he has no responsibility, he is greedy for life and afraid of death, and let your murderer get away with it......"
Before Ling Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Ah Qiang replied angrily: "Nonsense, Governor Liu has been beheaded, and no one will know about this matter at all-"
"Sure enough, you know." Ling Xiaoxiao said.
Cuong now knew that he had said the wrong thing, hung his head, stared at the ground, and remained silent.
Seeing this, Ling Xiaoxiao was not in a hurry, but slowly comforted: "I still remember what Wen Jie said at the end, she has been expecting you to pick up the two of them and take them to live a free and happy life, she doesn't want to be rich and rich, she just wants to spend white head with you, but this wish didn't come true, she closed her eyes, and she couldn't wake up anymoreββ"
"Don't say it, I beg you to stop itβ" Cuong screamed as he squatted on the ground in pain with his head in his hands.
Ling Xiaoxiao looked at him quietly, silent, and did not force him to speak.
After calming down for a while, Ah Qiang wiped away the tears on his cheeks, a determined look appeared in his eyes, and said to Ling Xiaoxiao: "I said, I said everything, but I have one request. β
Ling Xiao bowed his head, "You say." β
"I hope you can help me find the killer and bring him to justice."
"Naturally, I'll do my best to help you." Not only to help Ah Qiang, but also for herself, if she can, she wants to catch this murderer with her own hands.
"Wen Jie and I have known each other since childhood, we lived very close to each other at the time, and we often played together, and then Wen Jie's family moved, and I haven't seen each other since, until I knew the results after the exam that year, and I had been preparing for the imperial examination for three years, and I was disheartened, and I happened to meet Wen Jie, and since then, I didn't just know about reading in my life, I originally wanted to prepare for the imperial examination for another three years, but once when I was with Wen Jie, I was seen by her father, and her father did not allow us to be together, And directly insulted me for being powerless and powerless, the toad wanted to eat swan meat, I was ashamed and indignant, and I was separated from Wen Jie at that time, but after a while, I found that I couldn't concentrate on other things at all, all I thought about was Wen Jie's smile, I thought I had fallen into the devil and had to be her, I secretly met Wen Jie again, I thought that I couldn't just study like this anymore, and I had nothing to do, so I asked someone to find a miscellaneous thing in the back kitchen of the yamen, if that incident hadn't happened later, maybe Wen Jie might not have died- β
After a pause, Ah Qiang choked up and said: "Governor Liu suddenly found me one day and asked me about some information, I wondered at first, why did Governor Liu take a fancy to me as a miscellaneous, and then I learned that he didn't know where to find out about my relationship with Wen Jie, and wanted Wen Jie to help him do one thing, and promised me that he would give us a large sum of silver afterwards, although I was tempted, but I knew that it was definitely not a good thing, so I didn't agree, Liu Governor didn't give up, and came to me three times and twice, and later... Later, he said that he would help me in the imperial examination, which was my dreamland, and I couldn't help it, so I agreed......" Speaking of this, Ah Qiang's eyes turned red again, and they all said that the man had tears and did not flick, but he did not reach the sad place.
"That incident is Wen Jie framing me in court?" Ling Xiaoxiao said after him.
Ah Qiang nodded, "Wen Jie originally disagreed, but then somehow agreed. β
