Chapter 12: The Mysterious Neighbor

We looked at each other for a long time, but he spoke first and asked directly: After they all went to the hospital, where did you go?

If I could go out, I would definitely go to the hospital, but I couldn't, I had to stay in bed.

Because of a back injury?

Listen, that's what he did, and he didn't care if he knew I had a back injury.

Because of heartache.

After a while, he asked again: You didn't go out, who can prove it.

I said, "Little wolf."

Qiu Yu snorted coldly.

Lu Shang glared at him angrily, and he was really bleating. How did I not know that Lu Shang was so majestic?

Lu Shang looked at me: Can anyone prove that you have not left the room all the time?

I said angrily: Why should I prove it, even if I can prove it, can I be ruled out from buying the monster?

At least, you didn't do it, and the youkai may not have been your order. Now, as long as you prove that you are not the murderer, you can go home, so please tell me as it is.

He seemed very tired, his voice was hoarse, but his attitude was so cold. I think he's impatient and doesn't care about me at all.

What does it mean that as long as it is proven that I am not a murderer, the real murderer will not be investigated?

Wen Guan, you know I didn't mean that.

I know what you mean, you're here to ask my teacher about his sin!

Wen Guan, I am bent on restoring your innocence, but you think of me like this.

It's as if you can see his heart break into pieces.

You go, I didn't kill people, I didn't leave the bed half a step that night, I only said so much, if you really want to prove my innocence, don't ask me.

Qiu Yu finally spoke: I want to work with him to prove that you are the real murderer.

I listened and looked at Lu Shang and expressed my surprise with my eyes.

Together, they prove my innocence?

That's what it means, right?

Lu Shang didn't say anything.

I think he's gone without a trace, and when will he come to see me next time?

My appearance is very miserable, you better don't look at me, look at Lu Shang, see if he can prove my innocence.

Now, it's your perspective again.

The location is my inn.

Time, noon.

There are only a dozen guests.

This is not normal.

But it's also normal.

You also don't want to dine at an inn where the shopkeeper is a suspect.

You can hear the guests eating the dishes I have developed, and at the same time talking about me, some people are sober and some people are drunk, but I don't know who is really drunk and who is pretending to be sober.

Qiu Yu was not drunk, he was wiping the table.

He is very capable, and he does everything well, you see that my inn is clean and tidy, which is the result of his hard work in the past few days.

Speaking of which, it has been half a month since Qiu Yue was killed.

Don't talk about the real murderer, I'm still in prison.

You see Qiu Yu put down the rag and said to Li Cheng that he wanted to see his father, Li Cheng first refused, Qiu Yu did not say fancy words, but impressed Li Cheng with sincerity, of course Li Cheng agreed.

At this moment, you saw Lu Shang walk in, he was coming back from Li Bei's house.

In the past five days, he has been going back and forth between the inn and Qiuyue's house, and he has not taken care of his business much for a month and a half.

I'm very sorry, I haven't said it, and I haven't given you a perspective, my in-laws' family is also in the catering business, but unlike the inn I opened, they only provide food and not accommodation.

Lu Shang's grandparents thought in the early days of the business that although there would be contradictions, it was much better than the guests staying in the hotel, which is why Lu Shang did not allow me to open an inn at the beginning, because he also thought that it would be more troublesome to stay.

Unexpectedly, there were fewer guests, but it was because I was questioned about carrying two lives.

I won't say how many restaurants my mother-in-law's family have in Songren County, I just said that in the third generation, only Lu Shang is willing to take care of it, he really likes it, and he is also talented.

Lu Tu, I don't say it, you can also see that he is idle, not doing his job, he finally has a son, he is happy, as long as he can eat, drink and have fun, he never asks about business.

Lu Cheng, it's different, he doesn't care, but he is a county marquis, he doesn't understand, and he doesn't have time.

Therefore, Lu Shang was very busy, because he didn't want his father and mother to be busy anymore.

This time he left Songren County, and when he came back, he passed through Songren Village, which was the village where Qiuyue lived, which used to be called Wolf Village, because there were too many wolves, and he was worried about hurting people, so he hunted a lot, and the wolves were gone, so he changed his name.

You see that Lu Shang has to carefully inspect the room where I live every day, although there is no difference every time, he still insists, proving that I have not gone out, and I have not intersected with monsters.

Let's go, whisper.

Listen, what do you mean by him being so kind?

Qiu Yu tidied up the filial piety belt on his arm, looked guarded, and asked very indifferently: Where to go.

Lu Shang didn't say anything, but sat down, the chair that had just been wiped was a little cold, you noticed that he grinned slightly, and still didn't get up, you heard him think in his heart: It's going to be done in a while.

Have you found any clues in the past few days?

Listen, he's like a homemaker, what do you mean?

As you expected, Qiu Yu mocked: You will really shirk your responsibilities and put the clues on a child. I will investigate the case, what else do I need the government to do?

Help my uncle get a glass of water, thank you.

Qiu Yu looked at him curiously, as if she wanted to take off his smile mask.

Go, uncle, he's very thirsty.

Qiu Yu brought water, Lu Shang looked at it, and pointed to a black spot: Heavy fall.

Qiu Yu brought it again, Lu Shang looked at it again, then he drank, stood up, didn't feel cold, and then said: Let's go, go to your village.

Qiu Yu still looked wary.

Are you afraid that I will eat you?

Lu Shang is joking, but he has a majesty that cannot be refused.

Go back, why am I afraid of you. Qiu Yu took off his apron and put it on the chair.

Autumn House.

Zhang Zhenzhen is a neighbor to the west of Qiuyue, and there are neighbors to the east of Qiuyue. I didn't say it before, because it wasn't important. Now we have to say that.

Before I say that, there is one more thing that needs to be done.

Qiuyu: You're beating around the bush again, what's the matter?

Lu Shang: Wait for your neighbor to come back.

Autumn language: ......

You're speechless.

It doesn't matter, it's good to adapt and adapt, Lu Shang is such a person.

Qiu Yu pondered for a moment and said: If you have checked, you should know that my father and I never talk to him.

The implication is, what's the use of waiting for him?

You don't talk to him because he's stupid and dumb, right?

My dad and I never looked down on him.

The tone you listen to is not an explanation, but an explanation of the facts.

We couldn't communicate, we had to quarrel when we met, and every time we helped him, we had to go over to the little wolf, and he liked the little wolf very much, crying and begging my dad to give it to him. He needs the wolf cub more than we do, however, he can't take care of it himself, and the wolf has to suffer, of course my dad disagrees, promising to see the wolf cub often.

The little wolf was lost at his house?

The wolf has been lost?

I stepped on the clamp by mistake when I got lost, and my left front paw was gone, and Qiu Yue didn't tell you?

My dad said that the little wolf ran away, and he chased it to the woods, and saw that the little wolf was caught in a clip, and he rescued it, and his hand was still injured.

Did you hear Lu Shang say in his heart: Qiu Yue came back and broke the clamp?

My dad won't lie to me, you must lie to me.

You see, this child's eyes are so determined.

Lu Shang immediately said: That day, your aunt Guan was going to reconcile with me, ran to the woods, and saw that the little wolf was caught by the clip, we broke the clip together, just picked it up, your father came over, and took the little wolf back, this is the real situation that day.

Does it matter?

Significant. Lu Shang, who had no expression, was intimidating in seriousness. If the wolf cub is lost from your neighbor's house and your neighbor leaves suddenly, it may be related to the murder of your father.

You still suspect a stupid and dumb person! It's ridiculous! In order to clear Wen Guan's suspicion, what else can't you do!

Don't say Wenguan anymore!

You're scared too!

Qiu Yu was the same, but he didn't avoid Lu Shang's gaze.

From what I know about her, there is absolutely no way she is a murderer.

Qiu Yu snorted coldly, a sound that came from his nose.

Is it me this topic, Lu Shang didn't want to continue, he said: I don't know if your neighbor is dumb, but I asked you people here, and he is not stupid.

Qiu Yu's expression was surprised.

I wonder why he is pretending to be stupid, only when he comes back can know.

Qiu Yu said: I don't think we can wait.

Lu Shang was about to say that he thought the same way, but Qiu Yu said again: In case the Wenguan Sect monsters are destroyed, there will be no proof of death.

Lu Shang: ......

If you tell me, I will be very relieved, Lu Shang doesn't like this kid either.

As soon as they went out, they saw Rui Rui coming from the fence wall, but she was stuck on the wall, Qiu Yu ran over and hugged her, and only let go of her hand when she stood firm: Why don't you go out of the door.

Rui Rui said seriously: My father said that you can't go out, you can go over the wall.

Lu Shang asked her gently: Is there anything wrong with you coming over?

Rui Rui hesitated for a moment and said: I miss Brother Qiuyu, I jumped over the wall for several days, and finally saw Brother Qiuyu!

Lu Shang asked her again: How old are you?

Eight years old.

Have you read a book?

I've seen it, watch it with my mother.

So, the children in the book, do they like to tell the truth or lie?

Rui Rui thought for a moment: I was telling the truth.

Autumn language: Sister Rui never lies.

Rui: That's right!

Lu Shang: If you just want to play with him, then you have to wait for us to come back, if your mother makes something delicious and invites him to eat, uncle will wait for you.

Rui Rui glanced into her yard.

It's not time to cook yet. Brother Qiuyu, what do you want to eat, I'll let my mother make it.

Well, Brother Qiuyu can't eat anything.

I miss Uncle Qiu too.

Rui Rui, why did you jump off the wall again...... Hey, Brother Lu, is there a new situation? Who is the murderer?

Lu Shang: I don't know yet.

I don't know for so long, Qiu Yue hasn't been buried yet, it's ......

Li Bei, what are you going to say in front of your children!

Oops, you scared me, how did you get out without lying down?

You can see Zhang Zhenzhen's pregnant belly.

I don't come out, you don't know what to say.

I want to say that as soon as possible, let the autumn go into the ground.

Don't get involved!

Li Bei really didn't say anything more.

Out of the door, Qiu Yu asked: Where to find Hu Yan?

Hu Yan didn't have a name, and he couldn't speak, and he didn't know what to say all day long, and he was talking nonsense, so someone gave him this name. Of course, nonsense is not good, and he himself does not like it.

Lu Shang: Woods.

Walking?

Not very close?

If it's close, won't you see it?

So, how did your dad get there?

My dad came back on horseback.

There's something strange here!

I'm afraid I'll hear what you say.

Do you like Rose?

You, what do you say!

If you like it, you like it, your uncle doesn't laugh at you, and your uncle likes you when you're younger than you.

I didn't!

You can see Qiu Yu's face is flushed.

It's called anger.

It shows that he thinks so in his heart.

You don't like Rui Rui, do you like the daughter of the girl?

Rui Rui is better looking than her!

Oh! Uncle also looks good at Rui Rui.

Don't talk about it, figure out how to get there. Qiu Yu said impatiently. Why did you let the carriage go back? Forget it, I'll borrow a horse.

Can you ride a horse?

I'm still a kid!

That, uncle rides, you walk.

No way!

Hahaha!
