Chapter 517: Ancient Dead House
Hearing what Pei Shu said, Chen Ying was also surprised.
It's really strange that Qian Tianxia has this habit of life.
After thinking about it again, she was relieved: "Qian Tianchuan has lived alone in the mountains for more than ten years, and he may not be suitable for getting along with outsiders." ”
"That's right." Pei Shu said, the amazement on his face still did not dissipate: "According to the report of my subordinates, he usually doesn't even say a word all day, and he doesn't make too many noises. At first, the guards always thought that he was not in the house, and when they opened the door, they realized that it was a false alarm, and he was either sitting on the ground drinking or sleeping. Over time, everyone got used to it. ”
Chen Ying listened with furrowed eyebrows and did not say anything.
A person similar to the "dead house" in the previous life is indeed easy to let people relax their vigilance, and it is understandable that the security work is lax.
"Didn't the two family members who guarded him last night hear anything?" She asked.
Pei Shu shook his head, his face became more and more gloomy: "They all slept to death and didn't hear anything." ”
At this time, they had already walked through the double vase door and turned into a vermilion lacquer corridor.
Chen Ying pressed her thoughts and looked around, but saw that the flowers and trees in the courtyard were sparse, the corridors were elegant, and a living water was attracted from outside, the white bridge was blue and the willows were still around, and several courtyards were interspersed, all of them were pink walls and tiles, and stones by the water, which was more decent than the martial arts arena in front.
"Several of the rooms here are guest houses, and they used to be empty, but there are some old people living in them at these times." Pei Shu introduced the tunnel, quickened his pace through the corridor, and walked along a bamboo forest path to the west.
After walking about forty or fifty steps, and then turning a corner, Chen Ying's eyes suddenly widened, but he came to an empty field.
This open space is 60 to 70 square meters, surrounded by several grass paths, with pink, white and green shelfs, and a few pomegranate trees with flower buds. In the southeast corner, there is a temporary fence with yellow cloth tied between the fences, and a sergeant guards next to it.
"That's where the crime happened, that is, the dry well." Pei Shu stretched out his arm and pointed.
He is using all the methods used by Chen Ying to solve the case, even including the unnecessary fog lamp principle.
Chen Ying bowed slightly, but did not get closer, but looked around first.
In this way, Pei Shu was probably impatient to trim the yard, Chen Ying followed him to most of the mansion, and the stone paths and paths were all covered with mud and grass, and the soles of his feet were slippery when he stepped on them, which was far less than the mud floor.
"It's a very wide place, and it's accessible in all directions." Chen Ying commented, and Xu walked to the well.
The soldier stepped aside, Pei Shu accompanied Chen Ying's side, and pointed to the northwest: "The clean room is at that end, and you can see it from here." ”
Chen Ying looked in the direction he pointed, and saw that in the depths of the flowers and trees, a corner of the blue brick wall appeared.
After staring at it for a moment, she frowned: "I've wanted to ask since I was just now, isn't there a gong bucket in the house where Qian Tianxia fell?" Why did he have to run out to go to the toilet? ”
This question has been in her mind for a long time, and at this point, she finally asked it.
At first hearing this, Pei Shu's face was the same, but the soldier looked surprised and glanced at Chen Ying several times with his big mouth open.
This Chen girl had taken a look at her from afar, and heard that she was different, and when she saw her today, the rumors were true.
In a girl's house, when it comes to things like gongdao and going to the toilet, it's like drinking water and eating, which is staggering.
It's rare, it's really rare.
It's strange that their Hou Ye has taken a fancy to it, and they dare to love these two couples together.
At this time, Pei Shu's heart was all on Chen Ying, and he didn't know that this little soldier was thinking wildly, and when he heard her ask, he replied: "Old Qian's house naturally has everything that should be, but he is not used to the Gong bucket, and he refuses to listen to it after saying it a few times, so he just asks." ”
When he said this, his face was helpless, and Chen Ying also had a feeling of crying and laughing.
I thought there was another hidden story in this matter, but who knows, it was caused by living habits.
That's right. This money has been living in the mountains for a long time, and the way of going to the toilet is only afraid of being very "bold", and now it is inevitable that it will re-enter the civilized society, and the habits will be difficult to change.
Chen Ying stopped talking, walked around the dry well, and couldn't help but sigh secretly: Sure enough.
The footprints had been completely destroyed, and as far as she could see, at least ten people had been seen here, and the scattered footprints covered a large area, presumably from the time of the corpse.
In addition, there are countless handprints, footprints, scratches, etc. on the edge of the well, and there are several places that have been scratched by ropes, and the moss is peeling off in large patches.
It should still be the traces left by the time the body was recovered.
All this was not Chen Ying's expectation, and she didn't bother much, turned to Pei Shu and said, "That's it, let's go to the clean room." ”
It is useless to investigate the scene that has been destroyed so thoroughly, it is better to collect other clues as soon as possible.
Pei Shu then led her to the clean room.
The clean room was only two small rooms, separated from men and women, and the smell was not too big.
Chen Ying walked around the room and went inside again.
At this time, Pei Shu couldn't follow anymore, so he had to stand straight outside, his face a little embarrassed.
However, after thinking about it again, Chen Ying didn't even let go of the clean room, and did everything himself, isn't this all to help him?
In an instant, Pei Shu felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and he dispersed into flying smoke.
Chen Ying's speed of investigation was very fast, and after a while, he turned around again, and Pei Shu stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Is there a clue?" ”
Chen Ying was noncommittal, and only said: "I have to see again." Then he asked him, "Where is the dwelling place of the money from heaven?" ”
Pei Shu led her forward again, and spoke in a lower voice than Fang Cai: "I deliberately arranged the most remote place for him to live, first, his daily behavior is different from ordinary people, and second, it is to avoid people's eyes and ears. ”
He raised his hand and pressed it to his waist, his long eyebrows were tightly locked, and his eyes were cold: "In order to confuse the eyes of outsiders, I deliberately arranged these guest courtyards to be full, but who would have thought, people are not as good as heaven, and something still happened." ”
He let out a low chuckle in his throat, lightly patted the hilt of the sword a few times, and sighed: "Manpower is not enough, and the will of heaven is unpredictable, but what, no one." ”
Chen Ying also looked forward at this time, and his face, which had always lacked expression, was calm as usual: "After all the information is collected and conclusions are drawn, it is not too late for Ah Shu to sigh again." ”
Pei Shu was stunned by her, and when he was about to speak, he suddenly saw Chen Ying stretch out his hand and point: "Is it this courtyard?" ”
Pei Shu was stunned again, and when he turned around, he saw that they were standing in front of the door of a small courtyard, which was Qian Tianxia's residence, and there were several Pei family soldiers wearing armor guarding the door.
"It's this yard." Pei Shu said, waving his hand to make the soldiers disperse, and said: "This Qingfeng Courtyard is not only quiet, but it is extremely close to the corner gate, and it is easy to enter and exit. ”
The deep voice, soft by the spring breeze, is like a string sound.
