Chapter 93: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole (1)
"By Xiaolian's face." Ji Qingyi said firmly: "There is no doubt that Ah Tian was frightened like this by Xiaolian's face."
She rubbed her chin and paced back and forth in the room: "Ah Tian didn't see Xiaolian's face at first, so he thought that his sister was bullied by others, so he was very angry and fought with the murderer, after the murderer left, Ah Tian helped Xiaolian up, but when he saw such a face, he naturally thought he had seen a ghost, so he was scared half to death."
As he was talking, the medicine boy had already boiled the medicine and brought it over, and sent Qingyi to let the medicine boy feed Ah Tian, and then sat next to Ah Tian, looked at his clenched hands, and said suspiciously: "You say, what is he holding in his hand?"
Xiao Jin shook his head: "Useful and useless."
"......" nonsense.
Ji Qingyi thought that five days had passed since the first case, and if one person disappeared one day, it would be four, because Xiaolian's accident was highlighted last night, so Ji Qingyi felt that there should be no missing person last night.
Ji Qingyi looked up at Xiao Jin and said, "Can you tell me the general situation of the people who have disappeared at night in the past few days."
Xiao Jin nodded, moved a small stool and sat opposite Ji Qingyi and said, "On the second day of Guo Hongying's disappearance, Mr. Zhao's eldest daughter in Chengxi disappeared, and she was wearing a white skirt on the night of her disappearance. On the third day, the concubine who had just entered the city outside the west of the city disappeared and was wearing white brocade that night. On the fourth day, that is, in the east of the city, Xiaolian disappeared, wearing white obscene clothes that night. ”
After speaking, Xiao Jin paused and said, "The similarity is amazing."
Ji Qingyi scratched his head, and wondered a little in his heart: "The imperial capital has been so unpeaceful these days, how can those women dare to go out at night?"
Xiao Jin clasped his hands around his chest and said with a speechless expression: "The imperial capital has never had a regulation prohibiting going out at night."
"Even if there were no rules prohibiting going out at night, were those women so bold?"
Xiao Jin must have also noticed this unusualness, frowning and thinking: "It is indeed a little too normal for a woman to go out in the middle of the night."
Ji Qingyi secretly rolled her eyes, isn't it not normal, it's just very abnormal, okay? Which normal girl went out in the middle of the night?
She held her cheek with one hand and said: "Xiaolian was wearing obscene clothes when she disappeared, which can be understood as being targeted when she got up in the middle of the night, but Mr. Zhao's daughter in Chengxi and the concubine outside Cheng Yuan are a little incomprehensible."
Xiao Jin nodded and said, "I'll let people investigate again."
Ji Qingyi turned his face and saw that Ah Tian's demeanor had eased a little, so he patted him on the shoulder and said softly, "Ah Tian, you relax your body now."
Ah Tian's body shook suddenly, and he muttered in his mouth: "Sister, sister......"
Ji Qingyi frowned, looked up at Xiao Jin and said, "You come over and talk to him?"
Xiao Jin pointed to himself and asked, "Me?"
Ji Qingyi nodded, stood up and said, "I am a woman, and the voice will inevitably remind him of his sister, you come to talk to him."
Xiao Jin's second staff couldn't figure it out: "What should I say to him?"
Ji Qingyi said: "I say a word, you say a word, and your voice should be calm."
Xiao Jin frowned, and walked to the bed a little unhappily and said, "Okay?"
Ji Qingyi lowered his voice and said, "Remember to be gentle and follow me."
Xiao Jin nodded and said, "You say."
"Take it easy and breathe softly." Ji Qingyi said.
Xiao Jin looked at Ah Tian with an awkward expression and said, "Take a light breath, don't be nervous."
Ji Qingyi twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "You trained the secret guards in your house?!"
Xiao Jin frowned and said, "Then what do you want me to say?"
Ji Qingyi rubbed his eyebrows and said, "If your voice is light, will you be light?"
Xiao Jin said with a dark face: "Except for you, I won't give it to others."
Ji Qingyi was stunned for a moment, turned his head embarrassedly and said, "Then you try."
Xiao Jin stood up impatiently and said, "Why should I say such a repertoire to others?"
Ji Qingyi held his forehead with one hand and said, "Where is the diaphragm, you try to let him relax."
Xiao Jin made a stinky face, expressed his unwillingness to cooperate, and sent Qingyi muttered: "He Qingyi is not obedient yet."
After saying that, he regretted it, Xiao Jin was already angry with himself, and if he compared him with others, wouldn't he jump into the fire pit even more?
Xiao Jin's brows furrowed even more, and he said, "Do you really think so?"
Ji Qingyi paused, coughed and said, "No, no, my temper is different, I can't agree."
Xiao Jin turned around and walked to Ah Tian's side and said, "I just have to cooperate with you."
Ji Qingyi was taken aback for a while, and was just about to praise him for a few words, but was interrupted by He Qingyi, who suddenly ran over. He Qingyun seemed to be rushing from the yamen, holding on to the door frame and panting: "Found it, found a clue."
Ji Qingyi stood up and walked to his side and said, "What clues?" Don't be in a hurry and speak slowly. ”
He Qing swallowed and said: "When my father followed the traces of the catcher in the yamen, he didn't find a place, but suddenly a cat came out of the grass, and the cat had blood stains on it......"
Ji Qingyi rolled her eyes, spread her hands at He Qingyi and said, "Can you tell me the point?"
He Qing was stunned for a moment, and said slowly: "But, I think what I said is the point......
Ji Qingyi helped his forehead and said speechlessly: "Then you continue."
He Qingyun nodded, and then continued: "My father saw that the cat was bloodstained, and he felt that something was wrong, so he took the catcher and followed the cat's footprints, guess what they saw?"
Ji Qingyi raised his fist, gritted his teeth and said, "I don't guess!"
He Qing sneered and said: "That's the case, in addition to seeing the bodies of those missing women, they also seem to have seen Guo Hongying."
Hearing this, Xiao Jin stood up and asked, "Guo Hongying's corpse is still there?"
"It's not." He Qingyun shook his head and said, "It's not a corpse, it's a living person."
"Did you catch it?" Ji Qingyi said.
He Qingyun touched his nose and said, "I didn't catch it."
Ji Qingyi looked down at Ah Tian, who was still sleeping, and said to He Qingyi: "You send Ah Tian home, and Xiao Jin and I will go to the yamen to have a look."
He Qingyan pursed his lips and said, "Why do you want me to send him home, can't Xiao Jin send him?"
Ji Qingyi glanced at He Qingyi coldly and said, "You have a lot of opinions?"
He Qingyun snorted and said, "Where do I dare to have an opinion, I have no opinion."
As he spoke, he picked up Ah Tian and walked out. Xiao Jin and Ji Qingyi arrived at the yamen, and there were already two corpses in the center of the yamen, and some family members were lying on the ground crying fiercely. He Huaishen saw Ji Qingyi and Xiao Jin hurriedly walked over, and he obeyed himself and said, "Lord Wang."
Xiao Jin gestured and asked, "Now the missing people have already been whereabouts?"
He Huaishen glanced at the corpse wrapped in a white cloth on the ground and said, "Except for that Guo Hongying, they are all dead."
Ji Qingyi frowned and asked, "That Guo Hongying, what's going on?" Didn't you say that you were already missing on the day of the rainstorm? ”
He Huaishen hissed and said, "Xia Guan thought, could it be that we were wrong at the beginning?"
Ji Qingyi tilted his head and looked at Xiao Jin, and then motioned to He Huaishen to continue: "What's wrong?"
He Huaishen rolled up his long sleeves and said: "The lower official is thinking, maybe this Guo Hongying's disappearance has nothing to do with this case." This Guo Hongying Xu ran crazy to the back mountain. ”
Xiao Jin interrupted He Huaishen's words and asked, "You mean, you found it in the back mountain?"
He Huaishen was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "The traces of Xiaolian's crawling are gone when they leave the village." Presumably fell to the ground when he escaped from the back mountain. We searched back along various routes, and searched in all directions for a long time to find a clue. I guess the dog has already told you. ”
Ji Qingyi raised his eyebrows, thinking that this Jing Zhaoyi still knew his own son.
Ji Qingyi wanted to check the body, but was stopped by He Huaishen as soon as he passed, He Huaishen shook his head and said, "Miss Ji, don't look at it, I went to check just now, and I was beaten back by my family."
Ji Qingyi asked in surprise, "Don't they let you check?"
He Huaishen nodded and said, "The people think it's blasphemy against the dead."
Ji Qingyi nodded clearly, and didn't go to look at it again. She walked past those family members to the main hall, and as soon as Ji Qingyi sat down, she said to He Huaishen: "What measures did you take before?"
He Huaishen pointed to the officials on both sides and said: "I asked these officials to inspect various places in the imperial capital, although nothing abnormal was found, but on the second day, there will still be people missing."
Ji Qingyi glanced up at the officials on both sides and said: The imperial capital is so big, why are these officials not enough. Besides, there was a disappearance in the west of the city the day before yesterday, why did you let the disappearance in the west of the city the day before yesterday, didn't you increase the inspection of the west of the city? ”
He Huaishen said with a serious expression: "How could it not be, on the night of the disappearance of the concubine outside the former scheduler, I asked half of the officials to patrol near the west of the city, but I didn't find anything unusual."
Ji Qingyi frowned lightly and said, "Do you think the murderer will move tonight?"
He Huaishen shook his head, and he said in a deep voice: "Today's matter, I don't know if it has scared the snake?"
Xiao Jin walked to the upper seat and sat down, stroked the hem of his shirt and said, "Because Xiaolian's body was found, the murderer is no longer afraid of being found for those corpses."
Ji Qingyi took two steps forward and asked, "You mean, the murderer has already shifted his position?"
Xiao Jin nodded: "Very likely."
After Ji Qingyi walked back and forth in the room twice, he suddenly said as if he had made a decision: "Let's lead the snake out of the hole tonight!"
Xiao Jin frowned and said coldly: "No!"
Ji Qingyi turned to face Xiao Jin and said dissatisfiedly, "Do you know what I want to say?"
Xiao Jin said angrily: "Luring the snake out of the hole is nothing more than being a fat meat for the murderer to target."
