Chapter 29: The Dawn of the Willows (1)
"I'm sad." Xie Ling was lying on the table, his eyes were like colorful butterflies, flickering and flickering, and people couldn't help but look at it.
"If you're sad, if you're sad, you'll go north." Gu Changqing sat in front of his desk and said without raising his head.
Since Xie Ling was here, he couldn't just go to bed and rest, so he simply drew all the relationship diagrams of this case.
People, time. Location, event. I hope that all kinds of things can be strung together to have a different harvest.
"Oh, don't write it yet, I have something very important, if I don't say it, I guess I won't be able to sleep tonight." Xie Ling's face was resentful.
"Listen up." Gu Changqing put down the pen in his hand and clasped his hands in front of his chest, looking at ease.
"When that person and Sanniang were separated, someone was behind the scenes, but it wasn't Old Man Li and that Young Man Qian?!"
"That person?" Gu Changqing frowned slightly, "Who?" ”
"It's that person, the prince who helped you." Xie Ling said reluctantly, thinking of the Yun Wang Ye who was yelling at her today and wanted to put Ling Chi to death for herself, she was so angry that she didn't even want to mention his name.
A wildflower that has grown wildly between heaven and earth since childhood, can not bear the torture of those human beings.
"But that's not the point, the man in black is the point. It was the man in black who appeared on the night when Old Man Li sent Li Xiang to Qian Mansion and took Li Xiang, that is, Sanniang, away and brought it here. Xie Ling said eagerly, but the more anxious he was, the more he felt that he couldn't understand the nonsense.
It is conceivable that Gu Changqing, who has never experienced it personally or witnessed it with his own eyes, looked confused.
"What man in black? What's the use of him? ”
Xie Ling sighed weakly and said, "If you know him, you can know who had to take Li Xiang away in the first place, and you will know the person behind it." Xie Ling was afraid that he wouldn't understand his words, so he added, "He's very critical." ”
"He's critical. The Man in Black is critical. Gu Changqing muttered these two sentences softly, but he understood the important point in his heart, so what should he do at this time?
Who the hell is the Man in Black? Is he a murderer? Or is there another plan?
And who should be able to see this man in black that night besides Sanniang?
Beat the watchman? He patrolled outside all night, and he was the most likely person to be seen.
Gu Changqing stood up a little excitedly, wanting to hug Xie Ling hard, if it weren't for some nonsense that she came here tonight, she might have wasted a lot of time to think of this beater.
But his hands had already stepped forward, but under Xie Ling's stunned eyes, he just patted her shoulder lightly with one hand in an instant, and said a word of thanks from the bottom of his heart.
"Hey, where are you going?" Xie Ling looked at his back and shouted.
"Investigation and evidence collection."
Xie Ling trotted over, she also wanted to go, she wanted to learn from Gu Changqing how to reason and judge the case, maybe she could find out the real culprit behind the scenes in the future?
However, Gu Changqing didn't have any clear destination, he just walked around the street leisurely, taking a look here and there from time to time, just waiting for the hour to come, and the gong of the watchman sounded.
Xie Ling really couldn't stand the cold wind in the middle of the night, and couldn't help complaining, "Where are you going?" Shall we go back? ”
"Shh Gu Changqing glanced at the distance, followed by a shout of beating people.
Gu Changqing smiled comfortably, "Okay, let's go." ”
So he walked in the direction where the sound of the gong came from.

"You guys, what do you want to do?" The watchman looked at the two people who suddenly appeared in front of him, and asked in a trembling voice, This is the night, and besides, something like that happened in the city two days ago, everyone will be afraid of it.
"It's okay, don't be afraid, I'm the county magistrate, but I just have a few questions I want to ask you." Gu Changqing said softly, for fear of scaring this man who was already like a frightened bird again.
The man kept his head down, and his expression was unreal in the night.
"Well, let's go have a cup of tea, it looks like you shouldn't have anything to do right now." Gu Changqing said.
He was afraid that this person would find a reason to shirk it, so he only appeared after he rang the gong for this hour. Until the next hour comes, he will be at leisure.
"I don't drink tea, so if you have something, you can ask here."
The man said this, but under Gu Changqing's stubbornness, he still followed him to the teahouse, under the dim warm yellow light, the man's face was very haggard, his cheeks were deep, his eyes bulged outward, and his expression was a little unnatural.
"This official wants to ask you, where were you when the Zhang family's store had a murder case that day?"
"Where am I?" The man repeated, "I'm at home, oh no, I'm on patrol." ”
"Then you've seen a man in a black nightcoat."
"See, see." The man said hesitantly, picked up the water cup and took a big sip.
"And where did you see it? What time is it? But do you remember what that man looked like?"
The man lowered his head, as if he was thinking very seriously, and after a long time, he replied slowly, "I am at the corner of Front Street, that is, at the corner of the street from the Zhangjia store." The hour is about halfway through the sub-hour. That man, he's very tall and strong. ”
"When you saw him, was it face-to-face? Have you seen your true face? ”
"It's face-to-face, but I can't see the specific appearance, after all, it's dark, and I'm also dizzy."
"Are you sure that person is strong and tall? Are you sure you weren't mistaken because it was dark? Gu Changqing asked.
The man nodded solemnly, "I'm absolutely not wrong about that." ”
Gu Changqing's hand inadvertently brushed the tip of his nose again, this was his habit when he was thinking.
What the man in front of him said was completely inconsistent with Sanniang's.
Sanniang said that the man in black was very thin and similar to herself. But this man said that the man in black was very tall and strong?
Which of the two is lying? If according to the description of the watchman, that person should be Zhang Ming? But now all the evidence from the investigation is proving that this Zhang Ming was not in Yong'an City that night?
What's missing? Is there anything else that you can't ignore? Or is Sanniang dazzled or lying?
"And what did you hear that night?"
"I remember hearing a dog barking?" Hit more humanely.
"Have you checked it out?"
The watchman shook his head, "I was in time to urinate, so I didn't have time to go." By the time you go, you'll all be there. ”
"Then you're irresponsible, the night watchman?" Gu Changqing rubbed his hands, "You night patrol people, you don't just need to report the hour, what situation do you have to report to the county government in time?" ”
The watchman nodded, "Yes, yes." ”
"Then did you see Sanniang or Zhang Ming that night?"
The man shook his head again.
