Chapter 20: Clues

One.

Everyone turned the drum tower upside down, and they didn't find any clues about Liu Zhong, everyone was wondering, no matter how big the drum tower was, he would be a palm-sized place, and in the blink of an eye, the whole person disappeared without a trace.

Could it be that this kid ran outside?

This is impossible, the typhoon outside is so big, and there is lightning and thunder, running out is equivalent to death.

Since Liu Zhong didn't go out, he should still be in this room.

So everyone had to do another carpet search, every time they swept a room, they arranged for a person to guard, the former swept a room, it would scream, and the doorkeeper must also answer to ensure everyone's life safety.

Finally, Ye Yunfei came to Qiao Guotong's room, this old man's room is located in the last and highest room of the Drum Tower of the villa, and the area in the house is estimated to be the largest one.

There was no one behind Ye Yunfei, so he shouted around him, and after getting everyone's answer, he slowly pushed the door open.

It was pitch black in the room, Qiao Guotong's body was still hanging, his eyes were white and bulging, his tongue was also spit out, and his whole body seemed to tremble slightly.

Although this was not the first time he saw Qiao Guotong's death, even at the second glance, Ye Yunfei couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle, and goosebumps rose all over his body. He held up his flashlight, tried not to look at Qiao Guotong, and then hurriedly searched the house, but found nothing suspicious, so he was about to leave.

Then he heard a voice behind him say, "There seems to be something in his mouth." ”

Although the voice was soft, Ye Yunfei was frightened, and his legs almost collapsed on the ground, he hurriedly turned his head, not wanting to be so angry that his nose was crooked, and the person standing behind him turned out to be Cao Kun.

This kid really looked at Qiao Guotong's corpse in a daze, and didn't know how to think that he was a ghost.

Ye Yunfei opened his mouth and scolded: "I said that you can't say hello and then go in, you scared me to death." ”

"I'm sorry, Yunfei, Sister Xiao Xu is a little worried about you, so let me come over and have a look."

"And what do you see? I'm afraid I won't die and another corpse. ”

Hearing Ye Yunfei complaining about him, Cao Kun smiled awkwardly: "Then you are busy first, and I will go out." So saying, he left the room.

Ye Yunfei breathed a sigh of relief, he looked around at the small meeting again, it was estimated that there was nothing to check, and turned around and was about to leave.

As soon as he walked to the door, but stopped, Ye Yunfei turned around, his eyes suddenly stared at Qiao Guotong's corpse, and concentrated the light pillar of the flashlight on Qiao Guotong's mouth.

I saw that in the old man's mouth, it seemed that something was plugged in a trance.

Ye Yunfei secretly thought that when Cao Kun was leaving, he said that there was something in his mouth, could it be that he was referring to this.

In order to be able to see more clearly, Ye Yunfei had to move a chair and step on it, he wanted to cut the rope, but the rope was too thick, and the dead buckle couldn't be untied for a while, who would have thought that Qiao Guotong's old face turned around in a flicker, face to face with Ye Yunfei, that creepy look, plus the corpse spots that had been presented, the expression seemed to be smiling at Ye Yunfei.

Ye Yunfei stepped on the stool and suddenly shook, it was not the stool shaking, it was the legs trembling, not only the legs, but even the hands began to tremble, and a trembling crawled over his back, but he still struggled to untie the dead button.

Poof, Qiao Guotong's body fell to the floor in an instant.

Ye Yunfei gasped, the tip of his nose and sideburns were full of sweat, and they all fell to the ground.

He bent down next to Qiao Guotong's corpse and deliberately looked at his neck, there was a deep bruise on it, which should be consistent with the murder weapon that hanged him, but other than that, there was no injury on the deceased's body.

Ye Yunfei stared at Qiao Guotong's mouth, and sure enough, the tongue of the dead corpse stretched out to reveal a paper ball, he couldn't help frowning, pressed Qiao Guotong's tongue hard, and then took out the paper ball, Ye Yunfei only glanced at it, his face changed suddenly, and he secretly screamed in his heart: "How can there be this thing in his mouth." ”

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps, the door of the room opened, Qiao Xiaoxiao and the others walked in, they all heard a sound in the room, so they rushed over together, and found that Qiao Guotong had been placed on the ground, next to Ye Yunfei.

Ye Yunfei held the paper ball in the palm of his hand and quickly kicked it into his pocket, perhaps because the light was too dark, no one else saw it, but he was puzzled by Ye Yunfei putting Qiao Guotong's body down, but his answer was that he hoped that the deceased would be respected, and he couldn't hang it all the time, at least change the place, and everyone was right to think about it, so everyone finally put Lao Qiao in the freezer.

Two.

The wind was blowing vigorously, the branches of the trees were rattling by the wind, and several dead trees like white bones had been beheaded by the wind and fell to the ground.

The clock in the drum tower ticks and ticks, and I don't know whether it will turn the day into night or replace the night with day.

At this moment, the people in the small building didn't know whether it was day or night, they gathered in the hall tiredly, no one spoke, and no one dared to go back to their rooms, they only hoped that the typhoon would pass as soon as possible and return to the place that belonged to them.

Gradually, sleepiness swept in front of everyone, Feng's mother made some coffee, Li Fuming didn't want to sleep, he drank two cups in a row, Li Wei looked at him from the side, and suddenly said: "Dad, drinking too much is not good for your health, and your hair is gray." ”

Dad, in the past, his son called him, and he basically used daddy, father, etc.,

Unexpectedly, Li Wei, as a son, called him with this word for the first time, although it was very intimate, but it couldn't help but make Li Fuming's heart twist, could it be that his son began to feel hopeless, not that there was no such possibility, Li Fuming did it on the rocking chair in the left living room in the hall, and let his son sit in front of him: "Are you scared?" ”

Li Wei nodded frustratedly: "Actually, I and Xiao Qiao are"

"I understand, I understand." Li Fuming hinted that he should not say any more, he knew that his son wanted to ask why he had to promote marriage, and it was good for the two parties to be friends.

"So what exactly do you want? I'm marrying Joe, what do you want? Qiao Guotong wants money or not, he wants industry or not, even if he has a house, we are not lacking, why do we still have to come, and what is the matter with you and that Ye Yunfei? ”

Li Fuming's heart trembled: "What do you mean?" ”

"Dad, don't hide it, the first day he appeared, you, Qiao Guotong, and Yan Kebai's expressions were wrong, I asked you if you knew each other, except for Qiao Guotong, you didn't admit it, since you didn't know you, I felt nervous."

"I'm nervous, isn't it a reporter?"

"Do you think it makes sense? I've seen with my own eyes that you used to have a secret party, or when everyone was asleep, even Yan Kebai was there, what are you talking about, what are you talking about, what are the ulterior secrets, is he also gay! ”

As soon as the words fell, someone said, "Don't worry, I'm not gay!" ”

Li Wei was shocked and found that Ye Yunfei also came here at some point.

Ye Yunfei stared at him: "But you're right, Li and I are old acquaintances, and we met ten years ago." ”

"Ten years ago?!"

This surprised Li Wei, and he was also a little excited emotionally, Li Fuming held his hand and motioned for his son to go out first, he wanted to talk to Ye Yunfei alone, although Li Wei was reluctant, he still got up and went out, but when he left, he glared at Ye Yunfei fiercely.

Ye Yunfei saw that there was only Li Fuming here, so he took out the paper ball he found from Qiao Guotong's mouth and threw it in front of the other party, Li Fuming opened the paper ball, frowned, and asked in a lost voice: "Where did it come from?" ”

This is not a paper ball, just a newspaper clipping that has been kneaded into a paper ball, and it is a newspaper clipping ten years ago, the paper has begun to yellow, and there is a news in the content of the newspaper clipping, and the title reads "Those cats in Jihong Liquor". The subtitle exposes the unbearable shady scenes in the production of liquor. There is a name written in the reporter column: Ye Yunfei.

"Qiao Guotong was found on the corpse, and someone stuffed it into his mouth."

Three.

In the bathroom, Xiao Qiao kept splashing her face with cold water, she hoped that the cold tap water could calm herself, but the tap water in the drum tower didn't seem to be cold, Xiao Qiao had to turn on the faucet very much, the tap water came from the ground, she didn't believe that there would be no cold water underground.

Suddenly, a big hand picked her up from behind, Xiao Qiao exclaimed, but was covered by the other party's mouth, and subconsciously made a move not to let her make a sound, Xiao Qiao fixed his eyes, couldn't help but be angry, raised his leg is a kick, and then twisted the other party's arm with his backhand, and pulled it back fiercely.

The other party's face was so painful that his face was distorted, and he had to open his mouth to call for help, but his voice was not high, because he mainly said to Xiao Qiao: "You listen to me explain first, I have something to say." ”

"you, sadly, I don't like to hear this girl! It's okay for us, you know! Saying that, Xiao Qiao was about to exert his strength, Li Wei hurriedly made a gesture and asked her not to call someone first: "You say it first, okay, what I said is related to Ye Yunfei." ”

"Ye Yunfei." For some reason, Xiao Qiao didn't let go after hearing these three words, but the strength in his hand did relax.

"Tell you, I'm annoyed now, I'll have something to say."

"You let me go first, I can't threaten you." Li Wei pleaded again.

Xiao Qiao pondered for a moment, suddenly let go, and warned Li Wei that if he had a bad plot against him, Xiao Qiao would definitely not spare him, Li Wei rubbed his arm and said, "Xiao Qiao, what are you doing with Ye Yunfei." ”

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Qiao turned his head and left, scolding in his mouth: "I should think that why nonsense, you should die by yourself!" As he spoke, he kicked the door and ran out, and Li Wei also ran out, also unlucky, and bumped into Qiao Xiaoxiao and them, Xiao Qiao couldn't say anything, got into Da Qiao's arms and began to cry bitterly.

This frightened everyone at the scene, and Chen Wenjin's face immediately sank.

"Xiaowei, what you have done is too much, Qiao Ling has already broken up with you, the sweet potato is not sweet, what are you doing with others?! Still not a man. ”

"yes, what the hell is going on with you." Xiao Xu also echoed: "Sexual harassment and sexual assault are all serious crimes, you didn't think about it for your father, once the party goes to the court to appeal, your family will be ruined, have you thought about this serious consequence?" ”

Immediately afterwards, Feng's mother also preached to the mouth, Li Wei ate Coptis chinensis dumbly, miserable, and finally alarmed everyone in the hall, including Li Fuming, after he listened to Xiao Qiao's statement, he suddenly looked serious, he wanted to ask Li Wei why he did this, but this child has also lost patience, just like the so-called love, he pushed aside the crowd and returned to the room, locked himself in the room, and fell asleep, but he didn't know how long he slept, and suddenly felt that someone was filming him again.

"Who, in the end." As soon as Li Wei opened his eyes, he was stunned, why are you here.

"Chairman Li, let me come and see you."

The speaker is none other than Cao Kun.

"My dad will let you come and see me." Li Wei obviously didn't believe it.

"How not, you know, I'm his personal lawyer."

"No way, you're Barrister Xiao's assistant."

Cao Kun snorted coldly: "People go to high places, and the water flows to the bottom, who will be an assistant for the rest of their lives, what do you say?" Master. ”

I?

Li Wei looked at Cao Kun, this kid suddenly revealed his identity, which surprised him a little, but Cao Kun's words may be true, because his father did say before that he wanted to find a private lawyer with a lot of ability, Li Fuming invited Xiao Xu back then, but he was already Qiao Xiaoxiao's lawyer, and the relationship between the two was very good, no matter how much money was paid, his father couldn't dig it up.

Cao Kun is Xiao Xu's assistant, as the so-called strong generals have no weak soldiers, Xiao Xu is a capable person, and the person who is favored by the capable person should not be weak, so it is also possible for my father to dig Xiao Xu's corner.

It's just that Li Wei somehow doesn't like Cao Kun very much, although he has a dignified appearance, he always feels that this person is a little yin.

"Since it's my father's man, let's leave quickly."

As he spoke, Li Wei impatiently covered the quilt, but Cao Kun did not move.

"Looking for Xiao Qiao, it's because of Ai Yitong's matter."

What a follow! However, the three words Ai Yitong still moved Li Wei's heart, but he didn't say anything.

"Young master, Ai Yitong is Qiao Xiaoxiao's eyeliner, do you believe it?"

Is it possible? Li Wei still didn't say anything.

Cao Kun suddenly took out the necklace and threw it in front of Li Wei: "This necklace is Ai Yitong's, there is a small camera on it, it was secretly smuggled by Qiao Xiaoxiao from the United States, it belongs to the world's most advanced candid photography tool, the main role is to secretly photograph your chaotic private life, the purpose is to dismantle your marriage with Xiao Qiao, so, young master, you have been deceived, Ai Yitong is someone's paparazzi, the day you approached her, she has been working for Da Qiao." ”

"Everyone is dead, what does it have to do with me, not to mention that it is no longer possible for me and Xiao Qiao."

"What about Zheng Qi? Don't you want to care about her? ”

Li Wei was startled, turned over and sat up: "Where is she?" ”

Cao Kun shook his head: "I don't know, but I may know some clues, if the young master is willing to listen." ”
