Chapter 392: Whole Fish Feast (6)

Although the moon has jumped to the middle of the sky, even in a place like Chang'an City, there are no pedestrians in sight on many streets.

But the area around the Star Picking Building in the Hibiscus Garden is still brightly lit, none of the shops on the street are closed, and the crowds in front of the Furong Garden and the Star Picking Building are surging, as if they are stagnant, and they still maintain the "liveliness" at the time of the incident.

Of course, this "lively" is also a last resort, the officers and soldiers holding long knives stand solemnly, there was a time when the main guard of the county of Kayang was cut and wounded, looking at the lively pedestrians know that these officers and soldiers are not "lip service", just talking, they dare not say much, and they are very cooperative with the officials of Dali Temple to record their confessions.

For most people, what they see is the same, or people who pass by here or go in and out of the Hibiscus Garden opposite, and suddenly fireworks are set off here, so they instinctively look here.

Some people watched the fireworks intently until they fell downstairs; There are also people who focus on watching the fireworks, but they are also lucky enough to see the figure on the top floor when the fireworks are lifted into the sky.

"It seems that a hand stretched out and pushed it, and the figure leaned back and turned out of the Star Picking Tower, and then ......" The pedestrians here couldn't help but look at the corpse lying on the ground again, and the beard of the man carrying the box on his back was white, obviously an old man who had been immersed in this way for many years, but at this time, he was like a novice who had just entered this way, while examining the corpse, his hands couldn't help trembling.

It is said that Dali Temple has handled many cases throughout the year, and Wu Bucai may have seen more corpses than others, and it should have been strange to see such a falling scene. Can...... At this time, facing Zhao Mengzhuo's corpse, Wu Bucai's hand still trembled uncontrollably, and the hand holding the knife grabbed several times before grabbing the knife in the box.

"Slow down." Bai Zhu walked to Wu Bucai and squatted down, patted Wu Bucai's shoulder, looked at Zhao Mengzhuo's corpse in front of him, subconsciously lowered his eyes, and turned sideways, unable to bear to look at it more.

After settling down, he said astringently, "Finding out the truth about the adult's fall from the building is the key." ”

If Zhao Mengzhuo's body falling from the building is physical evidence, the pedestrians on the street are human witnesses.

After listening to Liu Yuan's questioning of the pedestrians who saw this scene, Lin Fei walked to the side and was with Ah Bing and Tang Yuan, looking at Wen Mingtang of Zhao Mengzhuo's corpse with a sympathetic expression, and said, "Listen to Ah Bing, you were at the scene at the time?" ”

Wen Mingtang nodded, watching him say the words that had already been typed countless times in his abdomen: "The fireworks rose into the sky, shining the top floor of the Star Picking Tower extremely brightly, I saw that there was indeed a hand pushing towards Lord Zhao, and then I saw Lord Zhao leaning back and turning out of the Star Picking Tower." ”

Wen Mingtang is not the only one who saw this scene, and he cannot be faked.

It's just that the fireworks that suddenly lit up were shining on the other side, although they were bright, but they were not on the side where the group was located, they saw from the ground that the movements on the top floor were all lined with shadows, and the group of people were all wearing dark Confucian robes, and their bodies were not much different from their hair, and they were looking at the top of the building from the ground to the top of the building, except for seeing a few figures in the shadows with the movements at that moment, which one was pushing Zhao Mengzhuo, and what others were doing was not clear.

It's just that although they can't see it clearly, the previous actions of those people who turned Zhao Mengzhuo's corpse really wanted to cover it up.

Looking at the people who were standing aside and wiping their tears and crying "Brother Zhao", Tang Yuan pursed his lips and said in a voice that only a few people could hear: "Cat crying mouse!" ”

Tangyuan is not the only one who has this idea. At first, when those people turned over the corpses, no one stopped them, and when the people of Dali Temple who came to interrogate with officers and soldiers called for questioning, the pedestrians who were watching at the beginning also "did not help the two sides" and told all the scenes they saw.

"Well, not long after Lord Zhao fell downstairs and fell to the ground, a group of them walked out of the Star Picking Building. The adults must also know that this guy from the Star Picking Tower has always been very fierce, and he didn't let me wait to get closer, but he didn't seem to see the corpses of their group of people, but he stopped the messenger surnamed Zhao who wanted to stop them from turning the corpses. ”

In front of everyone's eyes, even if you want to help, you can't help, there are so many pairs of eyes on the street, and most of them are purely frightened by the officers and soldiers brought by Dali Temple.

Therefore, it is impossible to hide such things, but it is better to tell everything you see.

Lin Fei nodded after hearing this, and then turned his head to look at the old servant wiping his tears on the side.

Although these people have a lot to do with Xinglou, Zhao Mengzhuo made an appointment with someone today, and with Zhao Mengzhuo's prudence and caution as Dali Siqing for many years, he will not forget to mention it to the people around him.

The old servant who drove to pick up Zhao Mengzhuo today said with tears in his eyes: "My lord is here to meet friends today, and before going out, I specially told my wife that I wanted to keep dinner, because I just drank tea and ate a few bites of snacks, and I guess I want to come back for dinner." ”

As he spoke, the old servant looked at Mrs. Zhao, who was surrounded by the maids and maids in the crowd, and couldn't hold back her tears. Several of Lord Zhao's children have not been in Chang'an City these days, and they have gone out to visit their relatives, and they don't know the news at this time.

Listening to the old servant and the old man tearfully saying "I want to come back for dinner", Wen Mingtang and the others not far away felt sour in their hearts, and they felt even more uncomfortable when they thought of Lao Yuan, who had an accident not long ago.

That bowl of rice can't be eaten after all!

As for which friends were drinking the tea party, the old servant looked at the few people who also wiped their tears, gritted his teeth, and said with the posture of risking this old life to be pointed out, and said, "It's Lord Chang and a few of them." ”

Lin Fei nodded, walked to the side of a group of pedestrians who were specially assigned to a place by the servants, and asked, "Before and after the incident, you waited at the back door of the Star Picking Building, and didn't see anyone coming in or out?" ”

A few pedestrians nodded and said, "It's true, the street behind this star picking tower is also lively, and many shopkeepers who didn't have much business at that time saw it." ”

So, so...... It can be determined that if Zhao Mengzhuo's death was not an accident, the people who pushed him off the Star Picking Tower must be these people who were still in the Star Picking Tower after the incident.

Unfortunately, today's Star Picking Building was rounded by these adults, except for the guys in the building, there were only a few guests, and these people did not bring personal servants when they talked, otherwise, Zhao Mengzhuo, the old servant, would not be absent from the scene.

After Lin Fei deliberately "eliminated" all the possibilities on the side, he turned around and walked towards the few people who wiped their tears on the side.

The group is not young, and the youngest of them, who shouts "Brother Zhao" in his mouth, is no more than two years younger than Zhao Mengzhuo.

This group of people is not only old, but also has the official rank on his body, among which the surname Chang who shouts "Brother Zhao" is now the waiter of the Ministry of Works, and the Chang family from which he was born is still old with the Lin family, Lin Fei has seen this group of people more than once in the Yasukuni Mansion.

As soon as this case is handled, I'm afraid my grandfather will not be able to deal with it! Lin Fei sighed with emotion, but his feet were not slow at all, and in a blink of an eye, he walked in front of several people.
