Chapter Twenty-Six: A Two-Person Walk
In the backyard of Juhong Mansion, four men were silent in the face of a few empty bags on the ground, and the salty smell was still blowing into his nostrils along the autumn wind, and Yan Mu couldn't help but sneeze.
The shopkeeper frowned in embarrassment, and said slowly, "I saw this rope in the utility room a few days ago, why is it suddenly gone?!" ”
Gu Changqing half-squatted down and picked up the empty white bag filled with salt, looked at it carefully, put it in his nostrils and sniffed it, and looked at the shopkeeper, "I think I can tell you where this rope went, it should have been placed in the physical evidence room of the county government as one of the physical evidence in Su Qiming's case." ”
"What?" The shopkeeper shook his head in surprise, "How is it possible?" Could it be that this murderer is really our person who gathers in the Red Mansion? ”
"I can't be sure of this, but judging from the salt marks in this bag and the fine pieces of thick hemp rope left in the bag, the rope that hangs the deceased upside down was taken out of this bag!" Gu Changqing said categorically, "I just don't know who took this rope away that day, do you have an impression of the shopkeeper?" ”
The shopkeeper shook his head, and then looked at the shopkeeper, "Have you noticed that someone is taking this thing?" ”
The shopkeeper also shook his head, "Shopkeeper, I didn't know there was such a thing?" ”
Hearing this, Yan Mu walked to Gu Changqing's side with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said in a voice that only two people could hear, "Changqing, are you suspicious of this shopkeeper?" Now it seems that only he knows this rope! ”
Gu Changqing rolled his eyes and threw it over, "If you were a murderer, would you use what you only have to commit murder?" ”
Yan Mu was dumbfounded, but quickly retorted, "Why not, or maybe he just thinks the same way as you, that's why he does it!" ”
Gu Changqing nodded thoughtfully and said, "But this shopkeeper, do you think he can have the strength to get that Su Qiming to the roof?" ”
Yan Mu looked at the shopkeeper of Juhonglou, and suddenly understood why Gu Changqing said this, he looked shrewd and scheming, not to say anything else, just based on his thin figure and sunken cheeks, it could be seen that this shopkeeper had worked hard, and he was almost blown down by a gust of wind.
"I tested it when I just ordered, but he doesn't know kung fu, and his body is really weak." Gu Changqing looked at Yan Mu's staring at the shopkeeper's eyes and explained, "He simply doesn't have the ability to complete this series of laborious hanging corpses upside down, and he has the ability to guarantee that he won't be discovered in front of us." ”
Yan Mu nodded in agreement, "But if that's the case, everyone in this Juhong Mansion has alibi evidence, and there are people who can prove it, so why are you still here?" ”
Gu Changqing grabbed Yan Mu's hand and pulled him under the big poplar tree, and said, "On the night of the crime, all of our eyes were focused on the deceased and the traces on the roof, so we ignored the traces underneath. In addition, the moonlight was limited at that time, and I felt that the trunk was too smooth to borrow, so I just checked whether there were any footprints and other traces left on the outer edge of the Juhong Mansion. ”
Gu Changqing paused, pointed to a certain part of the tree trunk, and said, "But now you take a closer look." ”
"What's this?" Yan Mu's head was withdrawn from the trunk, "Could it be that ......?"
Gu Changqing nodded slightly and said, "Yes, this trace looks very similar to the trace behind Su Qiming, or it can be said that it was made by the same thing!" ”
Yan Mu kicked the tree fiercely, "So, it was really this beast that killed Su Qiming?" Is it already a sperm? ”
The thought of such an inhuman and unknown thing existed, and Yan Mu's voice was full of fear.
"I don't know." Gu Changqing rejected this statement without the slightest hesitation, "But I know that no matter what kind of essence it is, it will always leave traces!" ”
"Oh yes, yesterday's Mid-Autumn Festival, was there that kind of acrobatic troupe?" After returning to his seat, Gu Changqing suddenly remembered and asked.
Yan Mu had just peeled off a shrimp and threw it into Gu Changqing's bowl, "What do you say?" Didn't Xie Ling still take you to see it last night? ”
"Oh, I forgot." Gu Changqing ate the shrimp and raised his head with a pure gaze, "Are there monkeys in the juggler?" ”
Yan Mu threw a roll of his eyes fiercely, "You forgot, Xie Ling threw a banana at it yesterday?" ”
"Oh, I don't think I saw it, but I remember that Xie Ling did take the banana!" Gu Changqing's face did not change, but he was angry and wanted to vomit blood for a while, and asked in a strange tone, "You didn't see anyone except Xie Ling yesterday, right?" ”
"Nope. At least I saw you. After speaking, Gu Changqing picked up the handkerchief and waved his hand, "I'm done, let's go!" ”
Yan Mu looked at the shrimp shell in front of his table, and the mood of a mouthful of shrimp that had not yet been eaten instantly froze to the bottom of the sea, and took a deep breath, "Okay, let's go!" ”
Coming out of the Juhong Mansion, the two of them turned around several times before they found the inn where the juggany troupe lived.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Yongan Inn.
Gu Changqing couldn't help but think of what the man who reported the crime said this morning, could this matter really be related to him?
Entering the lobby of the Yongan Inn, although it was past lunch time, there were not a few people, but most people's accents didn't sound here.
Gu Changqing and Yan Mu found a place to sit down, they had just eaten big fish and meat, this time they only needed two cold dishes and a pot of wine.
Yan Mu patted the table lightly, his eyes seemed to be able to eat people, "Gu Changqing, if you don't finish this meal for me, I will definitely find a cook to cook you!" ”
Gu Changqing smiled slightly and said, "You personally promised to invite me to dinner, and you didn't say anything in advance about how many meals you had?!" ”
"You ......" Yan Mu was about to get angry, but was interrupted by the shouting of the shopkeeper, "Guest officer, the dish is here!" Our clear water hibiscus is a must, and it will be good to eat well for a while, so you can leave a ink treasure! ”
Gu Changqing raised his eyes and saw that the half of the wall opposite was full of poems and songs, but unlike the flowers and the moon, the poems here were all related to vegetables. Especially the sentence, "Hongmei smiled proudly, and Qingshui Hibiscus was absolutely absolute." "Most aptly.
Yan Mu also looked at the situation, and incredibly lowered his head to look at a plate of tomatoes mixed with sugar and a plate of cold lotus root slices on his table, and scolded, "This verse, the name of this dish is really overwhelming." Take a look at the fair lady from afar, and take a closer look at the ravines on her face! ”
Gu Changqing looked at Yan Mu's appearance, and his heart turned, "Hey, do you think this poem is in your eyes?" If that's the case, take it down! ”
Yan Mu was stunned, "If you want to go, I won't go!" Your words in the future will be a trap for me, oh no, life is full of traps! ”
