Chapter 210: Time of Death
Ni Yuanyuan's uncle is named Yuan Chengle, and his identity is an appraiser and archaeology professor on the surface, but he is actually a clever Mr. Jing, and the place where he lives is not too far from us, so Ni Yuanyuan can rush over overnight.
When we arrived at the Yuan family's villa, it was a girl who opened the door for us. The other party looked Ni Yuanyuan up and down with a sneer: "I heard that you have been living on the streets, and you have been a junior." This time, do you want to eat, or do you want to find someone to take you in? ”
Ni Yuanyuan's face said calmly: "I'm here to find Uncle Yuan." ”
The man snorted coldly, "My dad isn't here." If you want to find someone, just wait outside, don't come in and dirty my house. ”
Ni Yuanyuan seems to have long been accustomed to this kind of sarcasm: "Yuan Jia, I have something very important to find Uncle Yuan......"
"Shut up!" Yuan Jia screamed like a fume: "Is my name your name?" My name comes out of your mouth, and I don't even sound dirty! ”
Tan Yue, who was standing beside me, was about to make a move as soon as his face turned cold, but I reached out and pulled her back. Before she came, Ni Yuanyuan had said that no matter what happened, she would solve it, obviously anticipating the current situation.
As soon as Yuan Jia argued, someone in the room heard the voice: "Yuan Jia, who are you talking to?" ”
The young man who came out of the house was obviously stunned when he saw Ni Yuanyuan: "Yuanyuan, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Ni Yuanyuan said lightly: "Yuan Xin, I want to see Uncle Yuan." ”
"Please ...... inside" Yuan Xin didn't finish speaking, Yuan Jia had already screamed: "Brother, are you cheap?" Back then, you were so good to her, she ignored you, and then I didn't know who you were pregnant with, and you were swept away, and you ran to intercede with her...... You don't want to pay attention to her! We can't let her in either! ”
Yuan Jia screamed and wanted to close the door, but Tan Yue stepped forward and pressed his foot against the door: "We must see Yuan Chengle today, otherwise, you will be responsible for all the consequences." ”
Yuan Jia was slightly stunned: "Who are you?" Get me out right now! Otherwise, I'll call the police immediately! ”
As soon as Ni Yuanyuan saw Tan Yue speak, she knew that she was on the verge of an outburst, and hurriedly stopped Tan Yue: "Brother Tan, let me handle this matter, okay?" Don't ......."
Tan Yue slowly let go of his feet in Ni's round, almost pleading eyes. Yuan Jia sneered indistinctly: "What a shameless thing." How many have you changed? ”
"Yuan Jia, you're too much!" Yuan Xin couldn't listen to it anymore: "Yuanyuan loves who is her freedom, why do you have to target her?" ”
"Are you sick?" Yuan Jia screamed: "You scolded me for such a person who didn't even dare to say who his child's biological father was?" Wake up! How long do you want to be deceived by this water-based poplar woman? Maybe she's coming back this time to see you fool, waiting for you to take over! ”
"Smack" - Tan Yue raised his hand and slapped Yuan Jia to the ground, and before she could get up, he put the gun on her head.
"You ......" Yuan Xin's words only said one word, and my gun was also aimed at his head.
Tan Yue patted Yuan Jia's frightened pale face with his hand: "I just said, if you can't see Yuan Chengle, you will bear all the consequences." ”
"Brother Tan......" Ni Yuanyuan quickly grabbed Tan Yue's arm: "Don't be impulsive." ”
Tan Yue gently shook off Ni Yuanyuan, and slapped Yuan Jia in the face with his backhand: "Are you going to continue to test my patience, or are you going to get up and take me to Yuan Chengle?" ”
As Tan Yue spoke, the thumb of his right hand moved slightly, and he pulled off the firing pin of the pistol.
"I ......"
As soon as Yuan Jia said a word, Tan Yue shouted: "If you want to lead the way, hurry up and get up!" ”
Yuan Jia trembled and got up, led a few of us into the villa, and pointed to the door of the study: "My dad is inside." ”
Tan Yue has a principle when dealing with others: if the meeting is unpleasant, there is no need to be polite in the future.
Tan Yue didn't say a word, and kicked the door of the study apart. When Tan Yue retracted his feet, the first thing I saw was a corpse sitting behind a desk.
Corpse fluid had appeared under the skin of the corpse, and a foul stench was wafting throughout the study, and a bunch of flies were flying back and forth around the corpse.
I put away my pistol: "Yuanyuan, you go to the police." You two get me some vinegar. ”
Although Yuan Xin is a man, he has never seen this kind of scene, and he is already paralyzed on the ground and can't get up. Yuan Jia seemed to have been choked by someone, her face was pale, her forehead was sweating profusely, and her lips seemed to want to scream, but she couldn't make a sound.
Tan Yue simply raised his hand and slapped her on the back, and Yuan Jia screamed.
It is unlikely that they will be able to get vinegar.
Tan Yue and I simply moved back, waiting for the police to come.
It didn't take long for the police to arrive at the scene, and after I showed my ID to the other party, I followed the forensic doctor into the study.
The forensic examination found that Yuan Chengle had been dead for at least five days. Ni Yuanyuan rejected the forensic doctor's conclusion on the spot: "Impossible! I talked to Uncle Yuan four days ago! I don't believe you can call up the phone record. ”
The police soon got the news: four days ago, Yuan Chengle did have a short phone call, and the call came from Ni Yuanyuan. According to the results displayed on the phone, after that, Ni Yuanyuan made fifteen calls to Yuan Chengle in half an hour, but the other party did not answer.
I frowned and asked, "Yuan Xin, your father hasn't come out of the study for a few days, don't you think it's wrong?" ”
Yuan Xin shook his head and said, "Once my father studies something, he will probably not leave the study for a few days, we have long been used to it." Meals are also delivered by servants to the secret compartment at the door of the study. ”
There is indeed a secret compartment like a chest on the side of the door of the study, and there are separate mahogany doors on both sides of the dark compartment. If someone puts something in the door, the person in the study can open the door and take the food away, and vice versa, they will send out the dishes and chopsticks from inside.
When I went in, I saw that there were no other doors or windows in the study.
This design is completely in line with the characteristics of the secret room used by Mr. Jing, in order to prevent the leakage of evil gas.
"Get the servant."
When I found the maid, the other party had just stabilized his mood: "I have been delivering food to my husband for the past few days, and the dishes and chopsticks he used have also been delivered in time." Who would have thought ......"
"Don't be busy crying!" After I yelled, I asked in a deep voice, "Haven't you noticed anything strange in the past few days?" ”
The servant said, "Three days...... No, four days ago, I heard my husband talking to someone in the house. They spoke loudly, as if they were arguing about something. I asked outside, and my husband said he was on the phone, so I didn't think much of it. ”
"The day before yesterday, the night before yesterday, I saw my husband walk into the yard, and he went back until he reached the chicken coop."
I immediately asked, "Where did you see that?" ”
"It's the bedroom!" The servant led me to the bedroom, where she could see the chicken coop in the yard from the window of her bedroom: "Sir likes to raise chickens, especially roosters. He placed the chicken coop opposite my bedroom just to make it easier for me to take care of it. ”
"Chickens?" I asked, "What does Yuan Chengle usually do with chickens?" ”
"It's just to be a pet." The servant shook his head and said, "Sir sometimes gets up in the middle of the night to catch a chicken and bring it into the study, and the next morning he will bring the chicken back." He said he was bringing the chicken into the study to play with him for a while. Aren't all pet owners like this? ”
Yuan Chengle brought the rooster into the study, it was definitely not as simple as playing with pets.
The ancients paid special attention to chickens and called the rooster "the bird of the five virtues".
The rooster has a crown on its head, which is Wende; There is a distance behind the foot to fight, which is a martial virtue; Dare to fight in front of the enemy, it is brave; It is benevolence to have food to greet the same kind; The vigil does not lose time, and the dawn is announced, which is faith.
Until now, the folk also regard the chicken as a mascot, believing that the rooster can ward off evil spirits, eat all kinds of poisonous insects, and eliminate harm for the people.
Yuan Chengle, as Mr. Jing, may be using a rooster to dispel the evil spirit on the object.
I asked, "Are you sure Yuan Chengle came out that night and walked back to the study empty-handed?" ”
The servant shook her head and said, "I'm not sure. When the gentleman takes the, he doesn't let others see it. ”
