Chapter 7 A Bag of Strange Tea

Sun San swallowed his saliva and replied: "Actually, it's nothing, it is rumored that Mrs. Tang seems to have an affair with outsiders, and she was discovered by Tang County." Seeing that Dean was still looking at him, he raised his voice again and said, "Many people know about this. ”

"When did this spread?" Dean asked, touching his chin as he walked.

"Probably ......"

"Be specific."

"Specifically." Sun San scratched his head, frowned and recalled for a while, before he frowned again and said, "Ten, fifteen days, yes, fifteen days ago, that is, the day Tang County Ling found out that Mrs. Tang had sex with outsiders. ”

"Five days." Dean read thoughtfully, shook his head, and then asked, "Then do you know who the so-called adulterer is?" ”

"I don't know." Sun San shook his head and said, "However, judging from Tang County's attitude that he has insisted on calming things down since the incident, I estimate that he has not found any actual evidence. And even if Tang County Decree catches the adulterer, Tang Niangzi is a member of the Lu family, and who dares to go against the Lu family in Wukang, so no matter what the situation is, this matter is destined to be over. ”

"I didn't expect Tang Qi to have such a relationship with the Lu family." Dean muttered softly, and then asked, "Isn't there two theories about the cause of Tang Mingfu's death in Wukang?" ”

"Yes, although most people believe that Tang County Ling was killed by the overlord, some people say that he was killed by Mrs. Tang's adulterer." Sun San nodded and replied.

"That's not right." Dean paused slightly, "There is a third possibility." ”

"The third possibility?!" Sun San asked with some curiosity.

"Yes. In case ......," Dean dragged his voice and said unhurriedly, "The overlord of Chu is the adulterer." ”

"What! How is this possible?! Sun San, who has always been relatively calm, couldn't help but exclaim.

"Just kidding." Dean patted Sun San on the shoulder, revealing a smile that was difficult to detect.

"Engong, aren't you afraid of the overlord's blame?" Sun San had a solemn face, and it could be seen that although he was a little suspicious of the overlord's manifestation, he also had a deep fear of the overlord of Chu.

"The inn has arrived, so you can move in with us today." Not wanting to bother with that topic, Dean quickly diverted the topic and said.

"No, I'll just come to you tomorrow." Sun San obviously still had the shyness of a teenager, and he excused himself as he was about to run away.

"Let's go." Dean blocked Sun San's way first, then grabbed Sun San's arm and said, "I still have something to ask you." ”

Sun San knew that what Dean said was to take care of his face, and then he excused himself, which was a little too unkind, so he had to nod silently.

As soon as he walked into the room, Di Chun greeted him. When he saw Sun San behind Dian, his face couldn't help but be a little stunned, and he just wanted to ask, but he heard Diane say, "Find him a guest room." ”

Di Chun suppressed his doubts in his heart, nodded his head, and walked out of the room with Sun San.

After a while, Di Chun walked in again.

"Childe, this ......" Before Di Chun finished asking, Dean briefly told him about today's events.

"But people's hearts are separated from their bellies, Childe, in case he ......," Di Chun said with obvious doubts.

"Don't worry, I know it." Dean smiled slightly, and then asked with a straight face, "How's things going?" ”

Di Chun did not rush to answer, but first glanced outside the room, closed the door tightly, and then walked up to Di An, and took out a folded paper and a roll of paper tied with a ribbon from his arms.

Dian took the scroll of paper first, and was about to read it, but heard Di Chun introduce on the side: "This is the name, address, and testimony of all the people present at the Overlord Temple on the day of the overlord's manifestation recorded in Master Liu's book. ”

"Oh? He was there. While listening to Di Chun's explanation, Dean browsed the contents of the paper scroll, and suddenly a person's name locked his gaze, "Lu Jia, son of the Lu family." Looking at this extremely common name on the paper scroll, the corners of Dian's mouth suddenly raised an arc for some reason: "It seems that this case is getting more and more interesting." ”

After going through the contents of the scroll, Dean took the ink-soaked paper again.

"Childe." Seeing that Di An had finished reading the contents of the paper, Di Chun immediately lowered his voice and asked, "Are Lu Yan's words reliable, Tang County Ling was really killed by the Chu Overlord with the Overlord Gun?" ”

Dean shook his head, and while thinking, he replied: "Lu Qizuo just said that Tang Xian Ling died because he was pierced through the chest and back by a large sharp weapon, but ......" said with a slight change in tone, "If the size of the wound is true, then the murder weapon may really be about the same size as the legendary Overlord Gun." ”

"Could it be that the Overlord of Chu has really appeared?" Di Chun obviously couldn't believe it, "Will it be ......?"

Before Di Chun finished speaking, Dean shook his head: "Even if Lu Chengzuo is bought, but everyone present is unanimous in their words, this is not an easy thing to do." And since the murderer has painstakingly set up such a game, he is unlikely to do such a trickless thing, because what he wants is the shock from the hearts of everyone. ”

"Why?" Di Chun asked with a puzzled expression.

"What should you do if you want to kill someone?" Dean didn't answer Di Chun's question directly, but asked rhetorically.

"Naturally, it's to find a secluded place, or ......," Di Chunzheng said, and suddenly guessed what Dean meant, "Childe is saying that the murderer is deliberately so public." ”

"That's the crux of this case." Dean smiled approvingly.

"But this is too arrogant, and it's also ......" Di Chun was obviously a little difficult to digest the shock in his heart, and after a pause, he continued, "It's too unbelievable." ”

"Forget it, don't think about it. Today, you've had a hard day, so get some rest. Dean said while looking at the lonely moon outside the window.

Di Chun nodded, and was about to retreat, when he suddenly remembered something, and stopped again: "Childe, when I visited Lu Chengzuo today, he gave me a bag of strange tea. As he spoke, he took out a small cloth bag from his sleeve.

"Oh?" Dean raised his eyebrows, "You are not related to him, why did he give you a gift?" And ......" Dean dragged his voice and took the cloth bag from Di Chun's hand, and as soon as he opened the mouth of the bag, although there was a faint fragrance, it was also an extremely ordinary product, and it was not worthy of the word "strange" in any case.

As if seeing Di An's puzzlement clearly, Di Chun didn't sell Guan Zi, and immediately explained: "Actually, I originally thought it was a very ordinary bitter tea, but after listening to the kind of drinking method that Lu Chengzuo said, I couldn't help but feel refreshed, but I really thought it was Bao Qi tea." ”

"How to drink?" Dian's curiosity was also aroused, and he stared at Di Chun with interest.

"Lu Chengzuo said that this tea tastes bitter, if you eat tea in the middle of the night, it will definitely have a different flavor." Di Chun reminisced about the previous conversation and said endlessly, not noticing that Di'an's expression had gradually become serious, "Childe, you said that this bitter tea would have been sober, if it is ......"

"Di Chun." Without waiting for Di Chun to finish speaking, Di An couldn't help but interrupt, "Except for Zhao Xiancheng, is there anyone who has gone with you to Lu Chengzuo today, you haven't exposed my whereabouts, right?" ”

Seeing that Di An's face was serious, Di Chun also put away the smile on his face, and replied with a straight face: "According to your instructions, I went to find Zhao Xiancheng first, and then accompanied by Zhao Xiancheng, and went to visit Master Liu and Lu Chengzuo in turn, so there are only these three people who know my identity." As for your whereabouts, I also prevaricated them according to the words I had discussed before, and I think they shouldn't know that you also came to Wukang. ”

"Childe, is there anything wrong?" Seeing that Dean didn't speak, Di Chun asked with a dry tongue.

"That's it, if you come, you will be safe." Dean pondered for a moment, said a sentence expressionlessly, then dipped his finger in the cold water in the teacup, and wrote a few words on the desk while continuing, "Go down." ”

Di Chun glanced at the words on the desk without missing a trace, although there was an indescribable shock in his heart, his face was still calm and unwavering. He glanced at Dian, nodded heavily, and slowly retreated.
