Chapter 42: Inquiries (3)

"My lord, there are two keys to each room, and the villain gives one to the tenant and the other to the villain. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Chen Jinbao thought for a while, and then asked: "Do you mean that each room has a key to spare, and all of them are in your pair?" ”

The guy nodded.

"Yes, sir."

Chen Jinbao looked upstairs again, according to the traveling merchant Jia Xu, then the suspect must have this guy.

"Can you be sure that all these spare keys are in your possession and not given to anyone?"

The guy nodded, and then said: "My lord, what you said about it, the villain is the guy in the store, the key must be in the hands of the villain, what do you want the villain to do if the key is given to someone?" ”

Chen Jinbao looked at this guy with an honest look, and he didn't realize that he was being suspected at all. It doesn't look like a murderer.

"And where are the spare keys now?"

The man replied, "Oh, it was originally on the villain, but it was later taken to several officials to check." ”

Chen Jinbao glanced at the three catchers who were guarding the guys, tilted his head and motioned for them to go and get the key.

One of the catchers quickly understood and ran upstairs.

Chen Jinbao then asked the guy: "Do you usually hang all the keys on your body?" ”

The guy nodded: "Yes, my lord, there is only one villain in the store, and the villain is convenient to bring everything he can with him." ”

Chen Jinbao raised his head and thought about it: "It's true that this guy has too many opportunities to commit crimes......"

At this time, the catcher ran down from the upper floor, still holding a bunch of keys in his hand.

"Chief, here you go."

Chen Jinbao took the key and looked at it one by one, and a small note was posted on the key indicating which room it was.

"This Tianzi No. 1 room, No. 2 room, No. 1 room, No. 1 room, No. 2 room, is this your guest room?"

The guy heard Chen Jinbao ask this and said, "Yes, my lord, this is the key to the four rooms." ”

Chen Jinbao thought about it, he didn't pay attention to the house card at that time, and the room where the body was found seemed to be the No. 1 room in Tianzi, and the white-clothed living treasure seemed to be the No. 2 room in Dizi.

Chen Jinbao continued to ask the guy: "This pile is the key to all the rooms of the inn?" “

The guy shook his head and said, "Hmm... No, the key to the shopkeeper's counter is not with the villain, everything else is there. ”

Chen Jinbao looked at the key and nodded, and then said, "Okay, I'm sorry for you." ”

The guy hurriedly stood up and bowed to Chen Jinbao. Then Chen Jinbao walked towards the table where the shopkeeper was sitting.

After Chen Jinbao came down, the shopkeeper beat his chest there, scolded the heavens for being sorry for him, and scolded the earth for not tolerating him.

Chen Jinbao walked up to the shopkeeper and shouted: "Shopkeeper!" ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly got up, bowed to Chen Jinbao, and then said with a sad face: "Lord God Catcher, you have to be the master of the little one, I don't know that the one who was killed by a thousand knives in the villain inn, you have to quickly bring that bastard to justice!" ”

Chen Jinbao smiled, and then said, "Don't panic, shopkeeper, sit down first, and let's talk for a while." ”

The shopkeeper sat down with a sad face, looking at his appearance, he was even more wronged than those who were framed.

"Shopkeeper, let me ask, do you know the deceased in Tianzi No. 1 room? Or did he stay here? ”

The shopkeeper had a sad face and said, "I don't know my lord, who knows that person, and the villain doesn't remember that he lived in the hotel, or even remembered seeing him." ”

Chen Jinbao asked again: "Do you have more room keys on that guy?" ”

The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "No, he's a man, so naturally the keys are all in his possession." ”

Chen Jinbao thought for a while, and then asked: "There is something I want to ask the shopkeeper, is that guy in your family your relative?" And you pay him three men's wages. ”

The shopkeeper nodded with a sad face and said, "My lord, there is such a thing, at first the villain wanted to invite three guys, but this kid said that he would only use him, and the wages of the three guys would be given to him." The villain saw that he was really diligent, and he had something to do with the villain, so he agreed to this. ”

Chen Jinbao looked back at the guy, maybe he really suspected that he was wrong.

"Shopkeeper, I wonder if there were any tenants living in those two rooms before the two tenants upstairs came?"

The shopkeeper thought about it carefully, and then said: "Most of the business of the small shop comes from food, and there are really not many people staying in the hotel. ”

Chen Jinbao then asked: "What about Tianzi No. 2 and Dizi No. 1." ”

The shopkeeper replied: "It seems that there were guests at No. 1 Dizi half a month ago, but there was no one during this time." ”

Chen Jinbao moved his gaze to the treasurer who was guarding the shopkeeper, and then said, "You guys bring the shopkeeper's account book." ”

Catch me, I look at you, like there's something unspeakable.

"Boss, that account book is in the hands of the adults in Dali Temple, and the small one ......."

Chen Jinbao remembered that Ling Xianjie was angry and didn't fight anywhere, and then said: "You go and tell Ling Xianjie that I want to see the account book!" ”

Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat dried shrimp, and catching fast is also angry at both ends, so I have no choice but to go upstairs to get the account book.

After a while, he came back with a big book. He walked up to Chen Jinbao and said, "Boss, the account book is here, and Lord Ling also said that this inn is mainly for wine and food business, and there are not many people living in the inn. Today is the tenth day of the new year, the day the merchant came was the morning of the eighth day of the new year, two days before the merchant stayed in the hotel, that is, the sixth day of the new year, and that night there was a person who came to stay in the hotel and left the morning of the seventh day of the new year. Tianzi No. 2 room has no guests for almost two months, and Dizi No. 1 room has guests half a month ago, but they left after a day. The second room of the word is also almost a month without guests, six days ago, that is, on the fourth day of the new year, I only lived in one. Lord Ling also said, if you don't believe it, you can see for yourself. ”

Chen Jinbao was stunned when he heard the words of catching fast, and thought, Grandma's Ling Xianjie, are you Zhuge Liang? How can you guess what I think?

Chen Jinbao took the account book page by page, and it looked like there was no difference with what Ling Xianjie said.

Chen Jinbao threw a thick stack of ledgers on the table, only to hear "Bang!" The sound startled a few catchers and shopkeepers.

"Okay, shopkeeper, I'm sorry for you."

After Chen Jinbao said this, he was about to get up and leave immediately, when the shopkeeper asked: "My lord, when will I let the villain open the door to do business?" ”

Chen Jinbao shook his head, he didn't know how to answer the shopkeeper, and he didn't know when the case would end.

Chen Jinbao walked away without saying a word, no matter what the shopkeeper called him, he didn't answer.

"Master, I think we can ask Lord Ling about this matter again, he must know something before us."

Hearing Wang Fugui say this, Chen Jinbao glanced at him and asked, "Go and ask him?" Will he tell us? ”

Wang Fugui nodded and said, "I think so, after all, he didn't hinder our search at all." ”
