The blizzard hit Xu Tian's cheeks, and the gentleman's hat on his head couldn't withstand the raging snowflakes at all. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Mr. Xu, you can warm up in the guest room first! I'll take you to the master's study later. The old butler said respectfully.

Xu Tian felt that this old butler didn't seem to think about the death of the other commander, and it stands to reason that Xu Tian should be asked to investigate the case quickly, but this old butler asked Xu Tian to warm up, and Xu Tian felt that the old butler's approach was completely illogical.

"Why did you tell me to come? Hurry up and take me to the scene of the crime. ”

"Mr. Xu, be quiet, the news of Commander Fang's murder has not leaked out yet, this is an extraordinary time, if other local warlords know that Commander Fang is dead, my county will probably not be safe!" There is also the old lady Fang, who is Commander Fang's old mother, her body is no longer strong, if the old lady knows that Commander Fang is dead, I am afraid that she will cry and cry, and she will not be able to hold it at that time. ”

"It's impossible for your family to hide it, you just tell the old lady the truth, and everyone up and down this mansion, I have to inquire."

"This ...... I'm afraid ......"

"What? Questions? ”

"No, because Adjutant Zhao asked me to keep the news of Commander Fang's murder, now no one in the entire Fang Mansion knows that Commander Fang was killed, if I call everyone out in a swarm, I'm afraid it will cause a commotion!"

"Well, your worries are not unreasonable, then you can tell me here first, and find all the details before and after Commander Fang was killed."

"About two hours ago, near evening, I went to change the hot water for the master, that is, Commander Fang, because Commander Fang has the habit of drinking tea, especially when the study is working, the hot water cannot be broken. I carried the kettle to the door of the study, but no one answered after a long time, and Commander Fang was short-tempered, and I didn't dare to knock for too long, so I stood outside for about a quarter of an hour. Because Commander Fang was very particular about drinking tea, the hot water was already cold at that time, so I went to the kitchen to re-boil a pot of hot water, and when I went to Commander Fang's study again, there was still no answer. At this time, Adjutant Zhao came, as if Adjutant Zhao was looking for Commander Fang in a hurry, Adjutant Zhao ignored me, and walked directly to knock on the door of the study. After knocking a few times, Adjutant Zhao was in a hurry, so he asked the soldiers standing guard to kick the door, and I was so frightened that I hurriedly ran in the direction of the kitchen with the kettle, because I knew Commander Fang's temper, if this happened in the past, Commander Fang would definitely be furious, I didn't want to be affected, so I was ready to slip away. But I still ran ten steps away, I heard Adjutant Zhao shout, I turned my head and looked into the study, directly behind the desk facing the door, Commander Fang lowered his head, there was a bright red blood stain on his chest, I was frightened at that time, I dropped the kettle and prepared to run, but I felt that I couldn't run at this time, but I didn't know what to do. Just when I was at a loss, Adjutant Zhao asked the soldiers standing guard to drag me into the study, told me that this matter should not be publicized, and told me the stakes, and then I discussed with Adjutant Zhao that only Mr. Xu could help with this kind of matter, so I wrote a letter of entrustment and asked a trustworthy family member to send it to you. ”

"It's been two hours back and forth on this road, have you ever been passive at the scene of the crime?"

"No, absolutely not, Adjutant Zhao is an understanding person, and the four soldiers standing guard were also taken by Adjutant Zhao, and the soldiers around me are all Adjutant Zhao's henchmen, and no one has touched the scene of the crime."

"Okay, take me to the scene of the crime now."

Commander Fang's study is located at the back of the main room, adjacent to the garden, the geographical location is very wide, and there is a rugged road on each side of the study, and there are messy footprints on the road.

The entire Fangfu is brightly lit, with a lantern of three meters, in that era, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as wealthy.

There were four soldiers standing in front of the door of the study, as well as Adjutant Zhao walking around, the study was very bright, the old housekeeper took Xu Tian into Commander Fang's study, and as soon as he stepped into the threshold, Xu Tian saw Commander Fang sitting behind the desk.

There were no other traces on the ground except for a row of Adjutant Zhao's footprints, but Xu Tian felt that this study gave people a strange feeling at first glance.

"Adjutant Zhao, have you been guarding the door?"

"Not an inch away."

"The murder weapon is the fruit knife at home?" Xu Tian turned his gaze to the old butler.

"This ...... I don't know, I haven't looked at it closely. ”

Xu Tian looked in the study again, there was no way to hide people under the bed, the bookshelves were all nailed to the wall, and there was no place in the whole room to hide people.

"Tell everyone in the family to come over! Paper can't hold the fire, and if you want to find out the truth, you have to ask everyone. ”

Adjutant Zhao hesitated, but still made a gesture of agreement to the old butler.

Xu Tian came to the periphery of the study to check again, but the snowstorm was very heavy, and it had been two hours, and even if there were traces, it had been covered by the blizzard.

After going around the study, when Xu Tian returned to the door of the study, he saw a woman dressed in a bewitching dress coming over, this woman was dressed a little more flamboyant than Mrs. Kuo, wearing a fur coat, but she did not wear a hat to protect her from the wind and snow, and her thick hair was coiled on her head, and she was embellished with snowflakes, which looked like a lump of cold black fans.

"Madam, you're back!" The old butler said with a look of compliment.

"What's going on? In the middle of the night, how can outsiders be allowed to enter the Fang Mansion? ”

"Ma'am, this ......"

Before the old butler could tell the truth, Mrs. Fang inadvertently glanced at the study, and when she saw Commander Fang's corpse, Mrs. Fang frowned, and tilted her head back slightly, as if she was a little frightened.

"What's wrong with the master?" Mrs. Fang said in a small mouthful of the red cherry.

"Ma'am...... Sir, he ...... He's dead! ”

"Really? When was this? ”

"This ...... There was an accident before you went out to watch the play, and Adjutant Zhao didn't let me tell you, and this matter can't be spread. ”

"You old fellow, why didn't you tell me if something so big happened? Didn't you make me suspect of murder? ”

"Ma'am...... You can't blame me for this...... It's all ......"

"Don't say it, look at your wretch, who has the final say here? The one surnamed Zhao can turn the trickle at your disposal with a fart, don't forget what the surname of the owner of this family is! ”

The old housekeeper was counted down by Mrs. Zhao, and a moment later, under the escort of the soldiers, the people from Fangfu came to the study one after another, at this time, Mrs. Zhao had not stopped her loud voice, and it intensified, the old housekeeper did not dare to fight back, so he had to shrug his head and listen to Mrs. Zhao's curses.

"What's going on? I smell the smell from a long distance, who doesn't brush my teeth at night and squirt? Adjutant Zhao walked over with an old woman in her fifties in his arms.
