Chapter 87
The rain was pouring down, an autumn rain was cold, and the air was filled with a cold earthy smell. The courtyard of the Tang family www.biquge.info was a little empty, and Tang Baifu was still sitting on a Taishi chair to close his mind, and his butler stood behind him respectfully with a poker face that had not changed for ten thousand years.
"Tell me, what happened that day?"
"Don ...... Old Man Tang, I, I am telling the truth, Old Man Tang, you must believe me! On the ground, Zhou Liang knelt at Tang Baifu's feet tremblingly, carefully raised the corner of his eyes and glanced at Tang Baifu, his body trembling constantly, looking extremely frightened.
"I just can't figure it out, you don't want this good daughter-in-law, why do you give it to others?"
"This ...... This ......" Zhou Liang hesitated, but only heard Tang Baifu say lightly: "Chop off the little finger of his right hand." ”
Zhou Liang's heart jumped, screaming and begging for mercy, but the housekeeper was indifferent at all, kicked Zhou Liang down, and stepped on his right hand under his feet, Zhou Liang wanted to struggle, his body writhed uneasily, the housekeeper spun from his waist and took out a saber with a deep blood groove, he shook a few knives, only to see a flash of cold light, only to hear Zhou Liang scream, the little finger of his right hand and his palm immediately separated.
"Ahhh Tang Baifu was indifferent to Zhou Liang's screams and said, "This person is old, and his body is no longer good, go get a piece of clothing." ”
"Yes!"
After a while, the housekeeper came back with a small shirt and draped the clothes on Tang Baifu's body.
"Alin, I didn't expect that after so many years, your knife skills are still so handsome."
"Master, it's not as good as before."
"Hehe, I don't think that although there is a little less strength, there is more ingenuity." "Sir, it's a compliment."
Tang Baifu laughed for a while, tightened the small shirt on his body, and said to Zhou Liang, "Zhou Liang, I said, you will answer whatever I ask, if you hesitate, you will cut off a finger, and if you don't cut enough, you will cut off your toes, rest assured, you will always be satisfied." Oh, by the way, if you still have time, take this finger, and you can send it to the hospital to pick it up, are you sure you have to think about it before answering me? ”
Zhou Liang was so painful that even his snot flowed out, and he held back the pain and replied, "Tang, old man Tang, I, I know that I am wrong...... Actually, my daughter-in-law is indeed very beautiful, but in fact, I ...... I'm personality incompetent, so ...... I just thought about soaking her in my hands and then giving her to my boss, which ...... That way, I can get promoted, or get paid more......"
"Oh...... Hehe, I didn't expect you to have such a story. This kind of thing, I think, you don't do less, right? ”
"This ......" Zhou Liang hesitated again, suddenly thought of the ruthlessness of this Tang Baifu, immediately changed his face, and replied: "This, I have already done it five times in a row." ”
"Haha, you kid, it's really a bit crooked!" Tang Baifu smiled and smiled, his face suddenly changed, he sat up suddenly, stared at Zhou Liang viciously and said, "But as far as I know, my Tang Jie doesn't have a habit of liking wives!" ”
Zhou Liang was in cold sweat on his forehead, he didn't know whether he was scared or hurt, and replied: "I, I know that Boss Tang likes girls, and I have also inquired, my ex-wife has never had any contact with other men since she divorced me, and Boss Tang trusts me, so I, I will let my ex-wife come to eat with Mr. Tang." ”
"Since you're divorced from that woman, can she obediently send it to the door?" Tang Baifu asked suspiciously.
"I was living with my ex-wife at the time, and I lied to her and told her that I secretly filmed her in the shower and her naked while she slept. Photo, she is a pure woman, naturally afraid that I will make these photos public, so she agreed to me, and I also cheated her of 20,000 yuan a few months ago. ”
Tang Baifu sneered: "You are really a scumbag...... And then what? ”
"Then, that night, I asked her out and asked her to accompany Mr. Tang to dinner, and Mr. Tang rewarded me with 100,000 yuan, I was very excited at that time, so I ran out to spend all day drinking."
"Did she come alone?"
Zhou Liang thought for a moment and affirmed: "Yes, Old Man Tang, she is alone, and I personally sent her upstairs that day." ”
Tang Baifu lay down again, shook up the chair, and asked, "Does she have any relatives, does she have a boyfriend or something?" ”
"Her father is gone, and she has been living in an orphanage with her mother...... I haven't heard she has a boyfriend. ”
"Hmm......" Tang Baifu pondered for a while and said, "These are all similar to what I investigated. Has she been particularly close to anyone lately? ”
After investigating, you still ask me? I'm a grass mud horse, if Lao Tzu's fingers can't be picked up, Lao Tzu can't get you in the open, and secretly I'm disgusted to death in you, an old immortal, grass! But this borrowed his Zhou Liang's hundred guts, and he didn't dare to say it, so he could only think about it in his heart, he replied: "No, every time I observe her, she is a loner......" Zhou Liang paused for a moment, thought about it, and suddenly, the scene of calling Ouyang Shirui in the bathroom that night flashed in his mind, there was a familiar man in front of him, but he didn't care.
He thought about it, and it seemed that this man had seen it somewhere. That's right! I saw him when I came to Yinta with Mr. Tang that day, and he also had dinner with Ouyang Shirui! Zhou Liang suddenly raised his hand and said: "Tang, old man Tang, I remembered, there was a man who seemed to be a little close to her, this man looked very frustrated, I didn't care too much about it at the time, so I didn't put this matter at ease, listening to Old Man Tang's question, I remembered, that night, that man was also in the Silver Tower!" ”
The butler behind Tang Baifu suddenly narrowed his eyes. Tang Baifu also sat up suddenly, pulled Zhou Liang's collar, and asked with a cold expression, "Tell me clearly, who is it?" ”
Zhou Liang was very afraid of Tang Baifu, and when he saw Tang Baifu's expression, he was so frightened that he knocked his upper and lower teeth, and squeaked and said, "He...... I'm not quite sure what he's called...... I, I just remember, he, his surname is white! ”
"Surname Bai?"
"That's right, surnamed Bai! A few days ago, he was still having dinner with Ouyang Shirui! ”
"Isn't it the one with black glasses who looks old-fashioned?"
"Yes, yes, Old Man Tang, it's him!"
"Ge Zhongxiang's apprentice - Bai Zhuo!" Tang Baifu pondered for a while, then turned around and asked, "Alin, have you checked?" ”
"Yes, sir, I checked it." The housekeeper named Alin still had a straight face and replied: "It's a coincidence that when the eldest young master had an accident, this surnamed Bai happened to be in the hospital, and the eldest young master fired nine shots that night, but the last bullet, I don't know where I couldn't find it." ”
"What does the report of his injuries say in the hospital?" Tang Baifu clenched the handle on the edge of the chair tightly, trying his best to hold back his anger.
"The injury report says he was a knife wound."
Tang Baifu glanced at the housekeeper and said, "Didn't you go and see such an important clue in person?" ”
"Master, at that time, the police had been focusing on Ouyang Shirui's woman, and when I noticed Bai Zhuo, it was already too late."
"How?"
"At that time, Bai Zhuo had already been discharged from the hospital, and except for the chief surgeon in the hospital, the other little nurses were all gone, just like the two security guards, disappeared, as if they had never appeared!"
Tang Baifu frowned and said, "What did the chief surgeon say?" ”
"No matter how much I coerce and lure, he is sure that Bai Zhuo's injury is a knife wound."
Tang Baifu was silent for a long time, and then asked, "What do you say about Ouyang Shirui's confession?" ”
The five confessions were exactly the same, and she said that she had dinner with the eldest young master and left...... However, there was not a single surveillance video available at the scene. ”
"Hey......" Tang Baifu sighed deeply, threw out a check, and said, "Okay, I know." Zhou Liang, this million, you take it, go and pick up your fingers, as long as you serve the Tang family well, your benefits are naturally indispensable! ”
Zhou Liang was cut off by Tang Baifu's fingers, but he still had to force a smile on him. He showed a pale and ugly smile and said with a smile, "Yes! Old Man Tang, I will definitely go to the soup for Old Man Tang! ”
Tang Baifu waved his hand and motioned for Zhou Liang to step back.
Zhou Liang picked up the severed finger and check on the ground, carefully put it into his arms, forced a smile, and rushed into the dripping autumn rain. The rain was cold and cold, and it was very uncomfortable to hit the face. The moment Zhou Liang turned around, the expression on his face became gloomy, and he trotted out of the Tang family's compound.
"Master, just let him go?"
Tang Baifu shook his head and said, "Let him be in the bounce for a few days, this kid has backbones, and it is a scourge to keep it." However, for the time being, there is still his use. ”
"Got it, sir. Master, I will leave Yun Province in two days to prepare for you to continue your life, what do you think. ”
"Well, okay, Tang Jie, this kid has a thin life, and if he dies, he will die, and it won't be bad to find the murderer in these two days, go ahead, you can do something, I don't worry."
"Yes, sir." The housekeeper Alin replied, bowed slightly to Tang Baifu, and retreated, leaving Tang Baifu alone under the eaves rocking the Taishi chair, closing his eyes and recuperating, and muttering to himself, "Hmm...... Bai Zhuo...... Ge Zhongxiang, the old immortal apprentice? What a headache, tsk...... Anyway, Zhongli has come back in the past two days, do you want to go and see him? ”
……
"Jingle bell ......" The wind chimes at the door of Ge Kee Flower Shop rang, and a delicate female voice came from the bar: "Huan, welcome to Ge Kee Flower Shop, please, do you want to buy flowers?" ”
Bai Zhuo put away the umbrella, patted the raindrops on his body, and said, "Xiaoqi, it's me!" ”
"Ah~ Brother Bai, why did you come, I'm almost bored to death." Miao Xiaoqi puffed out his cheeks, and complained with a rare mouth.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the road is slippery in the rain, the bus is jammed, there's no way, it's hard work, Brother Bai invites you to eat delicious at noon, okay?" Bai Zhuo scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, saying this, of course he wouldn't tell Miao Xiaoqi that he had quarreled with Su Meiniang's seductive thousand-year-old female ghost because of sleeping.
Bai Zhuo didn't know why, this Su Meiniang had been getting along with him recently, and she didn't care about sleeping in his bed, she actually had to take off her clothes to tempt him, but she couldn't see anything, and she could only watch and not eat! What a painful thing this is for Bai Zhuo, a little virgin! Of course he wants to reason with Su Meiniang! Although it was Bai Zhuo who had the upper hand every time......
Miao Xiaoqi has a quiet personality, and she doesn't blame Bai Zhuo, she said: "If Brother Bai had gotten up earlier, he wouldn't have been stuck in traffic with me." ”
"Haha, tomorrow, tomorrow must be an early wake-up. By the way, didn't Aunt Yun come today? ”
Aunt Yun is Ge Shuilian's mother, and when Ge Lao is away, she comes over to help take care of the flower shop. Miao Xiaoqi shook his head and said, "I didn't come." Big Brother White ......"
Bai Zhuo put down the umbrella and teased the wind chimes at the door, heard Miao Xiaoqi call him, and returned to "Huh? What's wrong? ”
"Big Brother Bai, I'm homesick."
Bai Zhuo put down the wind chimes, and the wind chimes made a tinkling crunch. He walked over, with a sad expression on his face, and said, "Xiaoqi, in two days, when my master comes back, we will leave, if you go back alone, I don't worry." He touched Miao Xiaoqi's head, as natural as touching a little Lori white peach, and said, "Xiaoqi is so well-behaved, if you leave, Big Brother Bai will miss you." ”
Miao Xiaoqi felt the heat coming from Bai Zhuo's hand, and when she heard Bai Zhuo say this, her smile was slightly red, and the mist in her eyes surged, and she said, "I, I will also miss Brother Bai's ......" After speaking, she felt that this was weird, and added, "There are also Sister Yang Liu, Sister Shui Lian, and they ......."
Bai Zhuo knew that the little girl was shy, and this sixteen-year-old girl was really innocent. If it weren't for the colorful golden silkworm on her body, she might just be an ordinary little girl who was still in school, and she wouldn't have experienced the grief of losing those sisters that night.
The little girl's face was red, and Bai Zhuo couldn't help but joke: "Alas? I thought Xiaoqi would be special to me, but I didn't expect it to be the same as Yang Liu, so disappointed. ”
Miao Xiaoqi suddenly panicked, she stretched out her right hand, pinched her fingers, and explained shyly: "No, no, Big Brother Bai...... Big Brother White is different...... Yes, a little bit...... A little different! ”
"Haha......" Bai Zhuo smiled and touched the top of Miao Xiaoqi's head again, and said, "Xiaoqi is so good, I won't tease you...... However, Big Brother Bai will really miss you! ”
Miao Xiaoqi laughed, squinted his eyes and responded to him sweetly, "Hmm! ”
At this moment, the door of the flower shop opened, and the autumn wind blew in with the jingling of wind chimes. "Excuse me, is Elder Ge here?"
Bai Zhuo looked over curiously, it was a small police officer in a blue uniform.
"Ge Lao is not here, what is the matter with him?"
When the little police officer heard this, he immediately looked disappointed and said, "We have contacted Ge Lao by phone, but we have not been able to get through, do you know when he will come back?" ”
Bai Zhuo shook his head and replied: "When my master went out, he didn't say when he would come back, if you are not in a hurry, tell me something, and I will tell you when he comes back." ”
"Huh? Forget it, bother. The little police officer's umbrella was not yet confiscated, and he picked up the umbrella and was about to leave, when he suddenly thought of something, put down the umbrella and said, "This gentleman, you said that you are Ge Lao's apprentice?" Name? ”
"Your surname is Bai, Bai Zhuo, I'm Ge Lao's apprentice, what's wrong?"
The little police officer said happily: "Great, Ge Lao's apprentice is also an onmyoji!" We now have a very bizarre case, the bureau's case-solving team has studied for half a month and has not studied anything famous, the director feels that there is something dirty in this case, our director has a good relationship with Ge Lao, I want to ask Ge Lao for help, since you are his apprentice, you must have his true biography, Mr. Bai, please come with me, after dealing with this matter, the country will be grateful! ”
