Chapter 161: There's a Fresh Corpse
Although the Su family is not very beautiful and moving, it is not surprising that she has a bearing and a lot of wealth, and some Lang Jun is courteous.
But......
Ran Yan faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart, and looked at the Su Mansion again, which had been blurred, and seemed to be able to faintly see someone standing in front of the door. Is anyone so courteous? Or is it deliberately entangled......
The carriage was on the main road, and when it was almost at the inn, the coachman suddenly stopped the carriage toward the side of the road. After a pause, I heard neat footsteps running outside. Ran Yan could see from the gap in the curtain that it was actually a team of officials passing by, and it was in the direction of the Su family in the east.
Immediately afterwards, there was a man on horseback, and there was a man as thin as a bamboo pole, and it was not difficult to recognize the appearance of trembling on the horse's back.
Ran Yan thought for a moment, but still opened his mouth and called, "Doctor Liu"
Liu Qingsong took the reins of the horse, and the horse turned around in place for half a circle before heading towards the carriage, Liu Qingsong said with a smile, "Seventeen Niang, I'm going down to catch the suspect, do you want to go together?"
Ran Yan opened the curtain and said suspiciously, "Suspect? There was a suspect so soon? β
"According to my personal analysis, most of this person is not a murderer, but the county lieutenant wants to arrest someone, so I will go and join in the fun...... The point is, I heard that the Su family has a beautiful female head. Liu Qingsong smiled and couldn't see his eyes, and people who didn't know the truth would definitely think that Su was the lady he had admired for a long time.
"You mean Sue is a suspect?" Ran Yunsheng asked in disbelief.
"Su may naturally offend a lot of people when doing business, probably because he wants to take revenge on her, there is a person who has been wandering at the gate of Su Mansion for many days." Liu Qingsong said.
Listening to the meaning of this, the dare has nothing to do with this murder case. Ran Yan was a little panicked in his heart, two people died in a case and didn't make such a big battle, Su Fu is afraid that before the case is reported, the county lieutenant can't wait to be courteous.
Human life has always been valuable.
"It's just a matter of grabbing someone at the door, do you really think that Su will come out to welcome you in person?" Ran Yan lightly put down a sentence and lowered the curtain.
Liu Qingsong was stunned for a moment, the county lieutenant did not go out in person this time, but just ordered a catcher to arrest people, and he followed like this, and he could only watch the excitement. Thinking about it this way, he also lacked interest, so he turned around and returned to the inn with Ran Yan, he thought it would be more interesting to learn more about the pair of cloud hairpins that were sent to Ran Yan.
In the darkness of night, the shops along the road have closed, except for a lantern still hanging on the door frame of the medical hall.
Back at the inn, after Ran Yan freshened up, he was about to practice the flute, but he heard the sound of the piano in the backyard. You don't need to look at it, the sound of such a smooth and clear piano is from the hand of Sang Chen.
Sang Chen is a pure white mutton fat jade, Ran Yan is neither willing to hurt him nor approach, she is not the kind of person who can endure in order to take care of other people's feelings.
After listening for a while, Ran Yan pushed the window open a gap, the moonlight like water and the cold night breeze sprinkled into the room, under a white plum tree in the courtyard, a gray robe sat cross-legged, the hem of the clothes bloomed around the body, the slender hands played on the piano, and the hands were free and easy to raise and hook their fingers.
The fair and clean face is more angular than the previous month, and it looks a little bit like a mature man.
He doesn't, he doesn't smile, and his loneliness looks unique.
Ran Yan was slightly stunned, the ancients were precocious, she really forgot that Sang Chen was just a ten-year-old boy.
After looking at it for a while, Ran Yan picked up the big hat and pushed the door out.
The moonlight is very good, the clear piano sound with a faint gloom and the autumn wind and autumn moon reflect each other, the gray clothes are plated with a slightly white halo, and Ran Yan stopped in front of him.
The sound of the piano came to an abrupt end.
"Put it on." Ran Yan handed him the big drummer in his hand.
"Lady......" Sang Chen suddenly became cramped, his hand should not be where to go, hesitated for a while, and quickly reached out to take the big gun, but did not put it on his body, but held it in his arms.
Ran Yan watched him hold Da Yu's movements, "You have brought the phantom sky all the way, you have worked hard." β
"No...... It's not hard. Sang Chen lowered his eyes, he shouldn't have said something, for fear that if he said something again, he would make Ran Yan unhappy. Although he was not angry today, he could feel the anger.
"Do you like me, don't skip words. Ran Yan suddenly asked.
Sang Chen's blood surged up suddenly, and even his earlobes were about to drip blood, but he mustered up the courage to nod.
"Where do you like me?" Ran Yan continued to patiently guide Sang Chen's thinking, hoping that he could be on the same channel as her, so that he could speak reasonably.
Sang Chen's fair skin could almost force blood, and his brain rumbled, "I don't." β
"Because you think I'm brave," Ran Yan answered for him, seeing Sang Chen stunned for a moment, raised his head, glanced at her and quickly lowered his head, Ran Yan continued, "Because I dare to touch even a dead corpse, do you think it will be more reassuring to be by my side, but like this?" β
Sang Chen was silent.
Ran Yan also carried a heart, she considered every sentence, for fear that it would make Sang Chen have a misunderstanding, thought for a while, sighed and said, "You, I am sometimes scared, I often wake up from nightmares, and I also hope that one day, someone can understand me at that time and make me feel at ease." β
Sang Chen slowly raised his head, his expression calmed down a little, but he couldn't help but be a little surprised, in his opinion, Ran Yan is a person who even dares to dissect a dead body, would she be afraid?
"You're wondering I'm scared, aren't you? There are not a lot of words" Ran Yan gathered the big drums on his body, and found a place to squat under the plum tree, "After seeing too much life and death, my mind is full of all kinds of murders and all kinds of deaths, and I will feel that the world is gloomy, so I try my best to find the beautiful existence in this world, like colorful people, like people who reveal vigorous vitality from their bones." β
Even though Sang Chen is pure, he is fragile and confused, and his is also gloomy, Ran Yan sympathizes, but he doesn't like it.
"Sang Chen, you are too stubborn and reject everything that makes you sad, but I don't have a broad mind to tolerate that my husband will never understand what I say." Ran Yan carefully observed Sang Chen's expression, and when he saw his confused appearance, he couldn't help but sigh, "That's all I say, if you only treat me as me, we can do very well, but if you still can't figure it out, we won't be strangers." β
This was the most patient refusal in Ran Yan's life, in order to minimize the damage.
After Ran Yan said all the good words, he got up and prepared to go back to the room. When he walked to the bottom of the porch, the clear voice behind him said, "I understand." β
Ran Yan paused, turned his head and looked at him with a little surprise, as if he was looking at someone else.
"Lady's ......" Sang Chen was a little uneasy by Ran Yan's straight gaze, and lowered his eyes and said, "I want to do it with my lady." β
Ran Yan smiled suddenly, and suddenly felt that if he was patient, this rabbit would not be so dead-eyed and difficult to communicate.
Sang Chen heard the footsteps leaving, so he slowly raised his head and looked at Ran Yan's back, his lips pursed slightly.
As the night deepened, just as people were about to go to bed, a terrible roar suddenly sounded in the west of the city, and the sound seemed to be being slashed with a knife piece by piece, painful and desperate, piercing the sky.
The birds in the forest fluttered and flew up, the barking of dogs and the cries of children in a town suddenly sounded, and Jushui County, which was about to return to silence, suddenly became noisy again.
In less than half a moment, there was a fire on the streets of the town, and a team of officials with torches ran quickly to the east of the city, and many households, the men opened the doors and came out to watch, but they were yelled at by the officials, "Look, close the door and sleep"
After a while, the commotion returned to calm, but the lights of each house were lit and never extinguished.
"It's terrible," Xing Niang said in a trembling voice.
"Lady, rest, let's leave here early tomorrow" Wan Lu's face is not very good-looking, they all say that people from the ghost gate are easy to attract anger, it seems that this is true, otherwise she and the lady will encounter such a terrible thing wherever they go Wan Lu pondered in his heart, another day must ask Shilang to see if he can do a magic thing.
"I'll read a little longer."
Ran Yan's voice fell, and the courtyard suddenly lit up, and the door opposite was knocked, "Doctor Liu, Doctor Liu"
Ran Yan's hand holding the book tightened, and he involuntarily stood up and walked to the front window.
Liu Qingsong hadn't slept yet, when he heard a knock on the door, he opened the door, and his eager voice suppressed excitement, "Is someone killed again?"
The catcher was stunned for a moment, and arched his hand, "It's the county lieutenant who heard that you haven't left yet, so he sent the little one to ask you to help with the autopsy, and his old man has already rushed to the scene."
"Let's go, let's go" Liu Qingsong dragged out his big box from behind the door, put it on his back, ran a few steps with the head catcher, suddenly remembered, turned around again, and ran to pat Ran Yan's door, "Ran Yan, Ran Yan has a fresh corpse."
The excitement in his voice that could not be concealed made the officials standing all over the courtyard shudderβthese are all people
Ran Yan hesitated for a moment, changed into a narrow-sleeved beard suit, put on a mask, and ignored the persuasion of Wan Lu, Xing Niang and others, and opened the door of the room, "Let's go." β
Liu Qingsong glanced at her, "It's really fast enough"
The two ran out of the inn back and forth, and Wan Lu stomped his feet in a hurry and chased after him.
Xing Niang ran to Ran Yunsheng to borrow a few guards.
The carriage had already been prepared at the door, and after several people boarded the carriage, they hurried towards the crime scene.
"Do you know the situation?" Ran Yan asked Liu Qingsong, he had been with the county lieutenant before, and he should know more about the case than she did.
"I have already said it last time, but it is only to find out the identity of the deceased. The beggar used to be a state student apprentice Liu Wen, and the one who died in the inn was a jailer. The yamen was not very concerned about this case, so the progress was extremely slow. This time it is so urgent, firstly, because the impact is too great, and the more important reason is probably that the people who died this time are not trivial. Liu Qingsong said strangely.
Evening Green chirped, "These dog officials who are careless about people's lives"
Liu Qingsong leaned on the big box as if he had no bones, and sneered, "They are just passive and slacking off and treating them differently, and the lives of people are not counted, there are more people who are ruthless than them."
Yes By].
