Chapter 4 The First Clue
Her arrival made the huge public hall suddenly silent, and everyone's eyes seemed to be unable to take half a minute off her, and even these people who came to redress their grievances and knelt on the ground temporarily forgot their original purpose.
She is like a fairy who has fallen into the mortal world, and everything around her has become her foil.
It's just that her frosty expression makes her dusty temperament a little more cold, she stands in the crowd, but the crowd is thousands of miles away from her.
This kind of stunning beauty that can only be admired but not touched is unforgettable.
Beside her, there was a two-meter-old man who was more than half a body taller than her, staring at Zhao Jinxin with cold eyes.
It's a bit too much to say that he is a big man, there is still a bit of childishness in his thick eyebrows and big eyes, and the three points of honesty in his face reveal his age at a glance, this person is just a young man who is not much different from Bai Yufeng, just because of his huge size and looks much more mature than his peers.
The bulging muscles of his body were as hard as a rock, and he wore a sleeveless vest on his upper body, revealing his strong arms, which looked a little thicker than an adult's thighs, and there was an invisible threat that forced him to breathe.
The girl stood beside her like a petite white rabbit, and the boy was a beast ready to go berserk.
"Empty girl, why do you have time to come to the City Lord's Mansion, has the Lanshan Sect given you a holiday?"
Gongsun Peng had already changed color, and when he saw this girl enter the court, he smiled reluctantly, but this smile was really more ugly than crying.
This girl is naturally the eldest lady of the empty family, He Zhutou asked people to hurry to the Lanshan Sect to spread the message, and she finally arrived here in time.
The ethereal spirit ignored Sun Peng, she asked Zhao Jinxin directly: "Uncle Zhao, there is no basis for this, why are you arresting my family's Bai Yufeng!"
Hearing the ethereal rhetoric, Gongsun Peng couldn't help but change color again, and said 'my family's white jade wind', thinking that the relationship between the two of them was extraordinary.
Zhao Jinxin had a bitter look on his face, he didn't know what to say, his eyes peeked at Gongsun Peng from time to time, and at this moment Gongsun Peng's face was also like sauce, he said stubbornly: "Empty girl, twenty-five people died from eating the pills sold by Yufeng Hall, can't this be said to be the most powerful evidence?"
The ethereal spirit said angrily: "Fart, fart, it's all fart, then in my opinion, the person who died in your city lord's mansion must be the hand of the city initiative." β
Gongsun Peng couldn't help but say, "How can the person who died in the city lord's mansion be said to be the hand of the city initiative?"
The ethereal spirit laughed angrily: "In that case, how can you say that others have eaten the pill of the Jade Wind Hall and say that Bai Yufeng is the murderer?"
"This ...... This...... You're two different things......"
These are obviously two concepts, but Gongsun Peng really couldn't think of any excuses for a while, and he really didn't expect that he would put himself into it in one sentence.
The ethereal spirit sneered, "Why are they two different things?"
Gongsun Peng hurriedly said: "Yufeng Hall is opened by Bai Yufeng, he is the master of Yufeng Hall, and the Qingling Pill is also refined by him, and now that the medicine has eaten to death, of course he is the murderer." β
The ethereal spirit said: "Isn't the city lord's mansion the city lord's? Isn't the city lord the master of the city lord's mansion? What thing in this city lord's mansion is not from the city lord's hand, even so, isn't the city lord a murderer when there are dead people in the city lord's mansion?"
"This ...... This ......"
Gongsun Peng didn't think of any reason for it, so he had to say, "That...... Even if he wasn't a murderer, he wouldn't be able to get out of it!"
Ethereal Spirit finally clapped his hands and said with a smile on his face: "That's right, this matter may have something to do with him, but it can't be said that he must be the murderer." β
Gongsun Peng's face was full of depression, and when he met this kind of woman, he only made him have a splitting headache, and the dead almost called the ethereal spirit to say that he was alive.
The key is that the identity of the ethereal spirit is too special, otherwise Gongsun Peng can use the charge of disturbing the court to tie her up, but you can't tie up this ethereal spirit, thinking of the madman in the ethereal spirit family, Gongsun Peng couldn't help but shudder.
Without waiting for anyone to speak, the ethereal spirit blinked his eyes and continued: "It's better to give him ten days to find out the truth, if he can't say one or two by then, it's not too late to convict!"
Zhao Jinxin nodded and said: "Yes, yes, then give Bai Gongzi ten days, Bai Gongzi must grasp it well." β
Gongsun Peng hurriedly interjected: "But he is struggling ......to do things alone" Gongsun Peng looked at He Zhutou and said: "He Zhutou, investigate this case with him, if there is anything wrong, you are the only one who asks." β
This is very clear, if Bai Yufeng is going to run away, you can just roll up and get out.
He Zhutou looked bitter and said, "Obey, my lord." β
The drizzle drenched the streets, and Bai Yufeng, Ethereal Lingling, Ji Man, and He Zhutou walked on the damp street.
Ethereal Ling Ling enjoyed the feeling of walking beside Bai Yufeng, even if it was rainy weather, but the sun was shining in her heart.
Walking beside Bai Yufeng, the ethereal spirit lowered his head and said nothing, his cheeks were red like a ripe apple, and the sound of his heartbeat could even be heard by passers-by.
The kind of domineering and domineering that she had just been in the public court had disappeared without a trace, and at this moment she was snuggling up to Bai Yufeng like a little woman.
Bai Yufeng rubbed his hands together and said with a slight smile: "Thank you Miss Kong for your help, I am grateful." β
"Cut, your thanks are worth a few dollars, I don't want any thanks from you. β
That being said, the ethereal spirit smiled like a flower, and was about to float when he walked.
Bai Yufeng smiled again and said, "You don't want to thank you, so what do you want?"
Ethereal Spirit suddenly lowered her head again, she looked at her toes moving forward step by step, her cheeks were almost red, and her mouth whispered, "I...... I'm going to ......"
At this moment, the big man who followed her suddenly said loudly: "What are you doing, didn't you say that Bai Yufeng must hug you this time?"
The ethereal spirit's face froze, and then flames suddenly erupted from her eyes, and she stared at the big man fiercely, her eyes were ashamed and angry, and she wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into.
"You...... You dead fat man with well-developed limbs, what are you talking about?"
"You said it there by yourself, you forgot, didn't I remind you? β
"You...... You still say......"
Ethereal covered her face, she felt that she had no face to live, and it was really a shame.
The big man said with an innocent face: "Okay, okay, I don't interject to speak, I'm here to help you, and you're not happy!"
Bai Yufeng had already laughed heartily: "I haven't seen Ji Man for a few months, he is still so cute!"
Ji Man's personality is a perfect match for his big guy, and he never beats around the bush when he thinks of anything or what he says.
Although this is also an advantage, there are some occasions where you still have to be a little flexible, for example, now, Ji Man doesn't realize this at all.
He Zhutou had already kept a certain distance from them, and he even pulled Ji Man several times in the middle of the way, but Ji Man didn't care about being this light bulb at all.
In the end, he shook out all the words that the ethereal spirit didn't dare to say, and He Zhutou suddenly sighed, it turns out that the development of limbs will really affect the development of brain power.
The ethereal spirit blushed and didn't dare to look directly at Bai Yufeng, she looked up to explain something, but saw a figure suddenly rushing from the front.
This person said in a hurried tone at He Zhutou and Bai Yufeng: "That woman lives in the alley of the street in front. β
Bai Yufeng's eyes lit up and said, "Let's go, take us over." β
The ethereal primer breathed a sigh of relief, this catch was coming at the right time, and it simply helped her solve the great embarrassment.
The five of them walked through the end of the street to the mouth of the alley, and it was the woman who took the lead in speaking above the public court.
With the viciousness of his head-catching eyes, he could see at a glance that the woman was a troublemaker, and almost every time she was the first to speak, and then caused the others around to be angry.
If you want to say that this woman is fine, you don't believe it if you kill He Zhutou.
He was not the only one who noticed the abnormality, Bai Yufeng had also already discovered that something was wrong with this woman, so he offered to give him ten days to investigate, and this woman was the first clue.
Walking to the end of the alley, Bai Yufeng pointed towards a gate in front of him and said, "Are you sure it's this one?"
The catcher said, "Sure, I saw her run in with my own eyes." β
Bai Yufeng and He Zhutou nodded at the same time, and the five of them broke into the door together.
The woman with the mole on her eyebrows did live here, and she did come in, but now she was on the ground, her body was gradually stiffening, and black blood was spilling from the corners of her ears, nose and mouth.
A pair of empty eyes stared at the ceiling, as if telling her that she didn't believe that her life had come to an end until she died, and her terrifying appearance made the ethereal spirit frightened, and she hid behind Bai Yufeng and only dared to sneak out and aim.
Catch Kuai said with a shocked face: "How is it possible, I just saw her come in with a good look." β
He Zhutou said: "What a quick move, this erases the first clue we found." β
Ethereal Spirit hurriedly said, "The murderer may not have gone far yet, why don't we chase after him separately?"
Bai Yufeng shook his head: "The murderer didn't plan to keep her for a long time, didn't you see the broken cup on the ground?"
The ethereal spirit couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with the cup, what does this have to do with us chasing people?"
Bai Yufeng sighed and said, "Drinking the poison is not something that the murderer just forced her to drink, the water has already been poisoned in advance, and of course she will die of poison if she drinks it." β
The puzzle on the ethereal spirit's face was even stronger: "How do you know that the poison was put into the cup in advance, how can you conclude that someone else didn't force her to drink it?"
"It was only because this woman was overly nervous that she was doing this in the court, and she was afraid and frightened, so she returned to her house from the city lord's mansion as quickly as she could. β
Bai Yufeng paused and said: "Because of being too nervous, coupled with the unbearable thirst caused by running all the way, if it were you, what would you do if you wanted to see a glass of water on the table?"
The ethereal spirit replied without hesitation: "Of course, drink it all in one go!"
Bai Yufeng said: "Therefore, the reaction of normal people is to drink water when they see it, how can they still think about whether there is poison in this glass of water?"
He Zhutou on the side glanced at Bai Yufeng appreciatively, and his analysis could be said to be exactly the same.
The ethereal spirit suddenly realized and said, "That's it, such a simple truth, how could I not think of it." β
He Zhutou said on the side: "It's easy to say, but it's not easy to think of, this murderer can be seen to be a rather tricky character." β
Ji Man didn't forget to add a sentence on the side: "If you want to say tricky, no one is more tricky than Bai Yufeng!"
He Zhutou's eyes were solemn, and after a while, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said again: "By the way, the person who assassinated us halfway."
Could it have something to do with it?"
Bai Yufeng shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter if the two are related or not, even if they do, it won't help us much." β
He Zhutou immediately said: "No, although the short sword used by that person is broken, I also got it back, can we find that person along the way this short sword came?"
Bai Yufeng said: "It's not so easy, trying to find a person among the tens of millions of people in Lanshan City is like looking for a needle in the sea, not to mention the weapon clues you said...... Maybe it's already broken!"
He Zhutou was slightly startled and said, "You don't want to say that he won't even let go of the owner of the weapons shop." β
Bai Yufeng said: "If it were you, would you let go of such an obvious clue, and besides, you are famous for hunting down in Lanshan City, they may ......"
Speaking of this, Bai Yufeng's face changed suddenly, and he said hurriedly: "Hurry up...... Go back to where your father and mother live, ......."
The four of them ran like cheetahs in the streets.
When they came to He Zhutou's house, Ethereal Ling Ling and Ji Man couldn't help but be stunned, the famous He Zhutou in Lanshan City lived in this kind of place.
The simple wooden house, with the papier-mΓ’chΓ© windows, is hardly any furniture in the room except for tables, chairs and benches.
Bai Yufeng had been here a few times, so he was used to everything here.
But the others didn't, Ji Man's huge voice couldn't help but say: "He Zhutou, this is not what I said about you, you have a prominent reputation, you let your father and mother live in this kind of place, I said you ......"
Bai Yufeng turned his head and glared at Ji Man, Ji Man's mouth seemed to be holding a bun that he couldn't swallow in one bite, and when he wanted to spit it out, he swallowed it alive.
He closed his mouth tightly and didn't dare to say anything more, only the ethereal spirit covered his mouth and giggled.
He Zhutou still had the heart to quarrel with them, he shouted loudly to the second elder in front of the house and behind the house, and he didn't see them after walking around inside and out.
At this moment, Bai Yufeng, who was walking into the room, suddenly spoke: "Don't look for it, they are no longer here." β
The three of them approached Bai Yufeng, holding a brand new white paper in his hand, and a vertical line of words on the white paper was clearly visible.
"If you want the second elder to live, come to the green bamboo forest outside the city. β
He Zhutou didn't say a word, turned his head and ran out wildly!
