Chapter 25: Bloodstains
Summer Solstice has no friends. The one who can barely be counted with this title is probably Qin Mu of Jingren Pharmacy. Now the masked man in black in front of him directly called out her name, and Xia Zhi searched for the image that matched him in his memory......
【…… Luo Ying? Summer Solstice isn't really sure, and I don't really want to accept such a fact.
However, the moment the man in black took off his veil, all suspicions were stamped, and it was Luo Ying who was right. I haven't been in touch since I said goodbye in a hurry last time.,I didn't expect the reunion to be such a scene.,One is a girl from Tongxiangyuan.,The other is a masked killer.,It's more than the storyteller's plot.。
【You...... How did it get here? Luo Ying looked at Xia Zhi's outfit, and had the impression that she was a little girl in a half-used dress, but now she was dressed up brightly, with a lot of rouge and gouache. Although I had some speculation in my mind, I still wanted to confirm it.
[Well, that's what you think right now.] But now is not the time to talk about this, the murder in the hospital just now...... Did you commit it? Xia Zhi asked.
[Yes.] This is a task assigned by the organization, but unfortunately it was missed. Luo Ying admitted directly.
Organization? Xia Zhi remembered that Luo Ying left in a hurry every time he saw a fireworks signal, was it an order from the organization? [The official messenger has already come, and Tongxiang Temple has been blocked. Didn't you get out and how did you turn back again? And, are you hurt? I just noticed you when blood dripped down it. 】
Luo Ying shook his left shoulder, and the blood stained his black clothes and soaked it, [It's okay, it's just a flesh injury. I...... I left something important behind and wanted to get it back. 】
What is worth the risk? If you go now, you're going to be caught in the net. 】
Luo Ying didn't answer this time, but it didn't seem to be about to give up.
[Well, tell me what it is, and I'll keep an eye on it for you.] If it was dropped in Tongxiangyuan, maybe it could be put away before the official noticed. Summer solstice to make a suggestion.
【......】Luo Ying stopped talking, making Xia Zhi even more curious about what made him cherish it so much. But before Luo Ying could speak, a team of officials had already come here to investigate.
[No matter how important things are, they are not worth their lives, you go first, and other things will be talked about later!] The summer solstice asked Luo Ying to leave first around the shadow of the green plants, and she was responsible for covering the aftermath.
As soon as Luo Ying left, the official who took the lead had already walked in front of him, seeing Xia Zhi stopping here alone, and interrogating him in a customary manner, as soon as he opened his mouth, he had a fierce tone, [What are you doing here? Didn't you let everyone stay in the room? 】
[The small pharmacy is not manpowered, I just helped Dr. Huang to make soothing soup for the girls. I'm not ready to go back to my room just after I'm done. The summer solstice is low-browed.
The official looked Xia Solstice up and down to confirm that there was indeed no suspicion, so he waved his hand, [Go back quickly, don't go around and make trouble!] 】
[Yes.] Xia Zhi looked obedient and walked around the officials and walked to the front hall.
Before he took two steps, an official noticed an abnormality on the ground, and took a lantern to shine a photo, and the bright blood stains were still not dry. [Big brother, there are blood stains here, maybe it's the killer!] 】
The lead official took a look at it and immediately stopped Xia Zhi, [Have you seen any suspicious people here just now? 】
Xia Zhi secretly cursed what a look, staring at the ground in the middle of the night. Xia Zhi pretended to be cowardly and bowed his body, [I didn't see it.] 】
[So what's going on here?] Did it come out of nowhere? If you don't tell the truth, I'll take you back to the cell and interrogate you slowly! The official roughly grabbed Xia Zhi's wrist and asked.
Xia Zhi was in pain, did this official recognize that she was inseparable from the bloodstains, or was he afraid that he would not be able to catch the killer and use her as a scapegoat first, slandering her as an accomplice in the crime and then taking the blame or something.
This tossing and turning even alarmed the other team of officials who were questioning in the front hall, and they all gathered here. The young people of the different races of the parties also came over to watch the progress. The young man has a delicate face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a high nose, and a standard interracial thick face. Black hair is braided and wrapped around the chest. He has a long figure, wears a dark robe, and has a silver-white fox fur shawl on his shoulder, which is unusual at first glance, and must be worth a lot of money at least. The whole person looks majestic and majestic.
In normal times, the summer solstice may be a nymphomaniac, but now is a critical juncture, and an oversight will be involved in the water, but you have to respond carefully. I said before that I didn't see any suspicious people, but now that I have changed my confession, maybe there is another accusation, and I simply deny it and clear it up. Xia Zhi, who had made up his mind, softened his posture, blushed, and whispered his defense, [That's not the blood ...... of a killer]
What do you say? Be louder! The official thought that he had grasped some handle, and he became more and more aggressive, and the strength in his hand was also increasing.
[I said, that's my daughter's menstrual blood!] The summer solstice raised the volume, forget it, the face is worth a few bucks.
The official who grabbed her let go of Xia Zhi's hand like an electric shock, and even wiped it vigorously on his clothes in disgust, [Don't say it earlier! 】
Xia Zhi fell to the ground, rubbed his skirt secretly with his right hand, and splashed with a crying voice, [How embarrassing to say this kind of thing!] I want to take advantage of the fact that no one goes back to the room to change clothes, if this blood stain dries, it will be difficult to wash! This is my favorite dress......] Xia Zhi said as he turned the freshly stained bloodstained dress out of the public to prove that what he said was true.
The officials turned their faces away, such unfortunate things were so dirty that they hurriedly urged her to leave, [Hurry up!] Bad luck is going to die! 】
Xia Zhi wiped his reddened eyes and got up, lowered his head in shame, and passed through the passage that the officials had already let out, and returned to the room.
Behind him, the young man of different races looked at the back of Xia Zhi, and his deep eyes couldn't see what he was thinking.
Listening to Yuxuan, Xia Zhi closed the door after entering the door, leaned back and took a few deep breaths to calm the heartbeat that was about to explode. Chen Huan was about to go out, but was startled by Xia Zhi, who suddenly came in, and almost bumped into it. Seeing that Xia Zhi was so flustered and red-eyed, he asked, [What's wrong with you? 】
Again...... It sounds so unpleasant, as if she's always getting into trouble. Heh, Xia Zhi sneered in his heart. After this sudden incident, the heat that wanted Chen Huan to express his stance before has cooled down a lot. And looking at Chen Huan's performance, it is completely the falling flowers, intentionally flowing and ruthless, so clear and clear, even if you don't use words, Xia Solstice can be understood clearly. Although the bidding matter has come to an end, Chen Huan will continue to stay for a while, maybe it is because of this that he did not directly tear his face and refuse, so she should cooperate with the interpreter flower.
Xia Zhi looked directly into Chen Huan's eyes, [Continue the previous topic, didn't I ask you before if you know why I'm crying? That's because the maids said that you and Yin Shuang not only played in the water, but also gave her a valuable golden hairpin. You see, you live in Tingyuxuan on the surface, but I didn't receive any jewelry gifts, and I lost a lot of money. The more I thought about it, the more aggrieved I became, and I cried a lot. 】
[Huh? Chen Huan looked confused, and he couldn't reach the speed of this face change. Xia Zhi didn't care, and his whole body breathed a big sigh.
