Two days later, Nie Xiaohu arrived in Luanchuan County, and with the assistance of Wang Zhutou of Luanchuan County, he met Gu Wenwei in a small shop.

This is a middle-aged man with an honest appearance, who was sitting on a chair in the store with a tired face at this time, and when he saw the arrival of Nie Xiaohu and others, Gu Wenwei stood up with a confused look in his eyes.

"A few officials, do you have something to do with me?"

"You are Gu Wenwei?" , Nie Xiaohu asked.

"Yes", Gu Wenwei nodded.

"Who are you Miao Xiangyu?"

"It's the wife under it, what's the matter, what's wrong?" , A trace of uneasiness flashed on Gu Wenwei's face.

Nie Xiaohu stared at Gu Wenwei's eyes and said, "Miao Xiangyu was hit by a carriage on the street in Luoning County and died. ”

"What?!" , Gu Wenwei's feet were staggering, he took a few steps back, and held the table with his hand in a panic.

"It's... Is this true? Gu Wenwei's face was full of grief, and his body trembled a little.

Nie Xiaohu nodded.

"How... How so? Gu Wenwei whispered to himself.

"Can I go to your house?" , Nie Xiaohu asked.

"When... Of course", Gu Wenwei nodded blankly.

"I've been living in the store since Xiangyu left, and I haven't come back," Gu Wenwei sat in the living room, bent down, covered his face with his hands, and immersed himself in pain.

"When did Miao Xiangyu leave?" , Nie Xiaohu asked.

"Eight days ago, she had breakfast, and suddenly decided to go back to Luoning County, so she simply packed up and left."

"Did she say what she was going back to do?"

"No", Gu Wenwei shook his head, "She just said that she wanted to go back to see it, I thought she was going back to see her parents, after all, it has been several years since she came out, and she should go back to see it." ”

"But according to our investigation, after Miao Xiangyu returned to Luoning County, she has been living in the inn and has not gone to see her parents."

"Xiangyu didn't come home?" , Gu Wenwei's eyes were full of doubts, "Then what is she going to do when she goes back?" ”

"That's exactly what I'm going to ask you," Nie Xiaohu said as he stared at Gu Wenwei.

"I really don't know, Xiangyu didn't say anything, she just said that she wanted to go back and see", Gu Wenwei frowned and tried to recall.

"Oh, by the way, the morning she left, during breakfast, she once said to herself, 'I have to go and come back,' and I don't know what it means, and she won't say it when I ask her."

Nie Xiaohu listened to Gu Wenwei's answer and observed that the furnishings in the living room were quite simple, and there were two bowls and a small plate on the table.

Seeing Nie Xiaohu staring at the dishes on the table, Gu Wenwei hurriedly said: "This is still the dishes we had breakfast on the morning when Xiangyu left, since Xiangyu left, I went to the store and never came back." ”

"Where were you the morning before yesterday?" , Nie Xiaohu asked as he picked up a yellow paper ball on the table.

"The day before yesterday?" , Gu Wenwei thought for a moment, "In the store, I didn't go anywhere." ”

"Who can prove it?"

"No one can prove it", Gu Wenwei shook his head, "I'm the only one in the store." ”

"Where's the guy in the store?"

"Since I lost money in business, where can I afford to hire a guy, the store hasn't opened for more than a month," Gu Wenwei said with a sigh.

"Oh? Did you lose money in business? ", Nie Xiaohu asked while unfolding the paper ball in his hand and looking at it.

"Yes, two months ago, I was clumsy, bought a batch of fakes, lost all the capital, and owed a lot of foreign debts."

"Feng Yuxuan, do you know you?"

"I don't know, I've never heard of this name until just now," Gu Wenwei shook his head.

"Miao Xiangyu hasn't mentioned this person to you?"

"No, never mentioned it."

"Also, how can a woman mention her former lover to her husband?" , Shi Yuning interjected on the side.

"What did you say?" , Gu Wenwei's emotions were obviously a little excited.

"I mean Feng Yuxuan is your wife Miao Xiangyu's old lover," Shi Yuning repeated.

"I won't allow you to tarnish my lady's innocence!" , Gu Wenwei stood up abruptly, looked at Shi Yuning with an angry face, and coldly startled Shi Yuning.

"Don't get excited, what he said is true, but that was before Miao Xiangyu met you", Nie Xiaohu pressed down with both hands and said.

"Oh", the emotion on Gu Wenwei's face calmed down, "If that's the case, that's it, Xiangyu has never mentioned this person to me." ”

"You clean up, follow me back to Luoning County tomorrow, go to identify the corpse, and then cooperate with our investigation!" , Nie Xiaohu re-clutched the paper in his hand into a paper ball and threw it on the table.

"Okay."

In the evening of the same day, Wang Zhutou brought the results of Nie Xiaohu asking him to help investigate, Gu Wenwei himself did not have a carriage, and all the carriage shops in Luanchuan County had not lost their carriages recently, and the rented carriages were also recorded, and they did not go to Luoning County.

The only person with a motive for committing the crime was basically ruled out, and Nie Xiaohu couldn't help but fall into distress again.

After returning to Luoning County, Gu Wenwei looked at the corpse and confirmed that it was his wife Miao Xiangyu, there was no tears, but the whole person was depressed, as if he had aged a lot all of a sudden. After settling Gu Wenwei, Nie Xiaohu came to Feng Yuxuan's parents' house.

Feng Yuxuan's father, Feng Junhong, is fifty-four years old this year, but he looks like he is in his sixties, with white hair on his head and wrinkles crawling on his forehead, according to neighbors, Feng Junhong's full head of white hair seems to have turned white overnight, which shows how hard the loss of his son in old age hit him, and his mother Zheng also washed her face with tears all day long, and kept chanting Feng Yuxuan's name in her mouth, and the whole person seemed to have lost her soul.
