Chapter 590: May Exposed
"Commander Ye said, 'The old bottom can't be exposed, and the old nest can't be called a person', and he said, 'The three holes of the cunning rabbit'." The horse monkey was articulate, and his eyebrows fluttered, and he continued:
Commander Ye told the little one that he couldn't go home directly after staring, and he had to take a few detours. The little one remembered her old man's words, and every time the whole group met in the teahouse, first to see if there was a tail behind them, and then they would separate and go back to their residence. ”
Then, he pointed to the calendar on the case: "The little one is afraid of making mistakes, and the place where the daily meeting is marked here earlier, and the little one doesn't learn many words, so he marked it with a mark......"
Chen Ying looked in the direction he was pointing, and soon figured out that he used four patterns to represent the four teahouses in the east, south, west, and north, and chose two of them as the meeting place every day, and assigned them to the members of different groups, and everyone gathered at the designated place after finishing work.
"After the pig's head met you that day, did you go home separately? Did anything happen during this time? Have you noticed anything like being stalked? Chen Ying asked.
There was a eunuch buying an umbrella in front of him, and Tang Xiucai wrestling in the back, these two things were too close, and every time the pig's head stayed near the target person, Chen Ying suspected that the pig's head might have been exposed.
Hearing this question, the horse monkey frowned and thought, but the pig's head suddenly raised his head and said in a panic: "Small...... The little one remembered something. ”
He swallowed his saliva, and his voice trembled a little: "After meeting with the little monkey that day, the little monkey left first, and the little one stayed for a while before leaving, and when he left the door of the teahouse, the little one was almost hit by a gangster, and the gangster ...... The face is fierce. ”
Everyone was shocked, and the horse monkey immediately became anxious: "Why didn't you say this earlier?" ”
The pig's head scratched his head, looking a little aggrieved: "It's really wrong...... I saw at a glance that something was wrong with him, and I dodged it in advance, and when he was scolding, I kept hiding behind people, and I didn't let him see my face. ”
At this time, he also realized that he was likely to miss an important piece of news, and whispered defensively: "Later, I ...... I saw that he left after scolding, and it wasn't a big deal, so I didn't tell you. Besides, I also went around for several miles to return home that day, and there were many people in Dongfang City, so I kept an eye on the back, and no one followed me. ”
Seeing that he was still hard-mouthed, Ma Monkey was so anxious that his face turned red, and he stepped forward to scold, but was stopped by Chen Ying: "The matter is still inconclusive, and it is too early to say anything." ”
It's too late.
Speculation alone does not confirm that the pig's head was found by the other party. On the other hand, Tang Xiucai is dead, and the horses and monkeys are now shrunk at home, and they can no longer be sent out, and it is pointless to discuss the issue of responsibility now.
The room fell silent.
The rain is strong and the wind is tight, the pomegranate tree in the corner of the courtyard is shaking in the wind, throwing off the water droplets of the canopy, there are a few green leaves on the ground, and the eaves with the lack of tiles seem to be unable to bear the autumn rain, leaking a large area of waterline, and the gray stone steps have been wet for most of the time.
Chen Ying withdrew her gaze from afar and looked at the briefing note in her hand.
There were only two main points noted in the briefing, one was the house where Tang Xiucai fell, and the other was a grocery store selling umbrellas.
As for the hot noodle soup restaurant, Chen Ying didn't take it into account.
The noodle restaurant is a time-honored brand in Beijing, with a good reputation, although it is hidden in the market and sells the most common noodle soup, but it is a delicacy that the gourmets in Beijing talk about.
Such an eye-catching place, with the low-key style that the wind bones are used to, should not be regarded as a point of contact.
Moreover, this noodle restaurant has been open for 50 or 60 years, and its history is much longer than the history of the Fengguhui speculated by Chen Ying.
This is also what she calculated based on Mo Zijing's confession.
The members of the Fenggu Club are very unusual, such as Chen Shao, Chen Li, Tang Xiucai and other officials or scholars, all of whom are among them, which shows that they attach great importance to the background of their members.
And the reason why King Kang noticed the Wind and Bone Society back then was probably because he noticed all kinds of signs from these scholars and officials. If this time is used to push back the node, the time for the establishment of the Wind Bone Association will not exceed 30 years.
Regardless of the time or background, there is no intersection between the noodle restaurant and the Fengguhui, so Chen Yingcai did not take it into account.
Of course, the investigation still has to be investigated, but in her eyes, the house and the grocery store are more suspicious.
After staring at the briefing for a moment, Chen Yingqi asked, "Did you go to investigate the grocery store that sold umbrellas later?" ”
The horse monkey and the pig's head glanced at each other, and shook their heads in unison: "I haven't been there." ”
Chen Ying secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
If the pig's head is exposed, the shop is likely to be the source, and if this is inferred, then the situation of the horse monkeys at that time is quite dangerous.
Being tracked by the target person, from the original dark place to the bright place, the position of the two sides is quietly changed, and the side does not know it, this situation is undoubtedly not good, if the horse monkey and their foothold is found out, the consequences are unpredictable.
Fortunately, others were clever, and Ye Qing was carefully taught, and the prevention work was done very well, which invisibly blocked the other party's further actions.
Later, Lao Chang took over the matter, and with Zhao Cheng as the head snake to help, the people of the Fengguhui couldn't take advantage of it.
As for Tang Xiucai's death......
Chen Ying's eyebrows were lightly furrowed.
She always felt that the judgment of killing people and killing people seemed a bit hasty, and it didn't quite match what she knew.
During the silent film, she asked another question: "After coming to the capital, has Tang Xiucai ever been to a place like Qianzhuang?" ”
Tang Xiucai's residence only found a dozen taels of silver, and the money that was originally held in his hand has not been found so far, Chen Ying speculated that he may have transferred it in advance.
When Ma Hou'er heard this, he stretched his neck to look at the calendar paper, and then said: "Back to the principal, Tang Xiucai has never been to Qianzhuang in the capital, but when he was in Jinan Mansion, the money he sold his family property was exchanged for silver tickets. ”
"I know that." Chen Ying whispered.
All Tang Xiucai's actions in Jinan are in her sight.
So, where have these silver tickets gone now?
Thinking of this, a thought suddenly crossed his mind, so fast that he could barely grasp it.
"The eunuch!" Chen Ying said, his gaze scanning back and forth on the faces of the two young men: "When the man who looked like a eunuch met Tang Xiucai, did Tang Xiucai give him anything?" ”
When Ma Monkey heard this, he lowered his face, scratched his head and said: "Tang Xiucai has a private room, he and the strange man have been talking in it for a while, and the little ones can't get in, and they don't know what they are doing inside." ”
