Lang Xiaobai's house was bought from a merchant, and the servants were all used by the merchant before. Miss Lu Shu, a female secretary who is eighteen or nineteen years old, is also one of them.

Miss Lu Shu is a neat and neat girl, dressed plainly, and has a sweet voice, but she doesn't like to talk, and often likes to sit quietly alone. Through those big round eyes, you can see that there seems to be some secret in her heart.

The door of the study opened, and Miss Lu Shu brought in several different newspapers.

"Thank you!"

Lang Xiaobai looked at the headlines in each newspaper.

"Huh?" He found that there was a message about himself published in the reader's column-

Dear readers, I want to reveal a piece of bad news now: Lang Xiaobai of the Starlight Private Detective Institute in Dongzhou City, this person is not a so-called detective, but a villain with evil intentions. He used trickery to frame the innocent Mrs. Xiao Xiurong, saying that she was the murderer of her husband and children, with the purpose of embezzling the inheritance of 20 million gold yuan. As for the tooth marks of the dog's teeth, the people with rosewood canes, etc., they are all lies made by Lang Xiaobai. The Security Bureau actually fell into Lang Xiaobai's trap and imprisoned the innocent Mrs. Xiao Xiurong, but let the hateful murderer escape from the law. I think Lang Xiaobai should be arrested and Mrs. Xiao Xiurong released, so as not to wronged good people and accidentally injure innocents.

"Phew! How ridiculous!" Lang Xiaobai was disdainful.

Lu Shu, who delivered the newspaper, stared at him with sharp eyes.

That night, when Lang Xiaobai returned to the manor, he saw the puppy raised by the driver playing with a small red ball in the yard, kicking it with his paws while holding it, and playing happily. Lang Xiaobai walked over unconsciously, picked up the ball and looked at it, it turned out to be a ball of waste paper, with many red lines wrapped around it. Due to the puppy playing, the red thread has been loosened, and the words on the paper ball are exposed.

Lang Xiaobai casually opened the paper ball and took a look-

"Strange!" Lang Xiaobai's eyes couldn't help but widen.

The first line on the waste paper was what he saw in the reader's column of the newspaper in the morning.

Lang Xiaobai took the waste paper, looked around left and right, hurriedly walked into the study, and began to study carefully.

The words on the waste paper were written with a fountain pen, which was the manuscript of "Lang Xiaobai is a villain", and several places on it had been revised. The manuscript was copied and sent to the newspaper.

Who's doing this? It must have been done by someone inside the house. Lang Xiaobai said to himself, and immediately asked the driver to ask.

The driver said: "The waste paper was picked up from the paper basket, and it was crumpled into a ball in order to wrap the red thread. Let the puppy take it out to play. ”

"Have you read what is written on paper?"

"No, I didn't notice ......"

Lang Xiaobai called his secretary Lu Shu and asked her to inquire about all the servants, but there was still no result.

In that case, don't think about it, the contributor must be living here, and he must be careful...... Just as Lang Xiaobai was thinking, a servant handed over a business card, saying that a guest was coming to visit.

The business card reads "Stressful Mountain". Although he didn't know him, Lang Xiaobai still instructed the servant to pick up the guests and come in.

"Oh! It turned out to be Yunshan!"

It turned out that Li Yunshan was dressed up, and although he wore a fake beard and black glasses, he still couldn't escape Lang Xiaobai's eyes.

"Haha! It still makes you see through it, your eyes are really sharp enough. ”

"This is a childish pretence, it's okay to deceive others, it's not easy to hide it from me! Hey, how's that? What's new?"

"Yes! The whereabouts of the strange man at the Shimbashi Cafe have been found. ”

"Great!"

"I searched for a long time near that café and finally found a shoe-shiner who said that a man with tortoiseshell-rimmed glasses, a brown beard, and a rosewood cane with a silver bird's head asked him for directions."

"That's right, it's him."

"After the man polished his shoes, he asked which station was the closest to take the tram in Takahashi District."

"So, you've found his address?"

"Yes, I found it. On Bailu Street in Takahashi District. The name was also found. ”

"It wasn't easy. What's your name?"

"Rhodes. It is said that half a year ago, he threw away his family property, only took a suitcase, and he didn't know where to go. Although they checked the area around his house, no one knew his whereabouts. ”

"How does he deliver the mail? Did you ask the post office?"

"Of course. Rod didn't have a special mailbox at all, and every other week or ten days, he went to the post office to pick up the letters. But there were only one or two letters at a time. ”

"Is the recipient Rhodes' name?"

"Yes."

"Where's the address?"

"It's not clearly written. The envelope only reads 8 words from Bailu Street, Gaoqiao District. ”

"So, have you found Rhodes' current address?"

"Haven't found it yet. However, another agent had seen the Rhodes. ”

"What time? Where?"

"It was around 11:45 p.m. on the day Fu Yucheng and his son were killed. The agent saw a gentleman with a rosewood cane and tortoiseshell-rimmed glasses, and quickly walked towards Wanfu Street. Brother Xun, didn't the taxi driver say that Mrs. Xiao Xiurong also got off at Wanfu Street at around 11:45 that night? How can it be so coincidental? Maybe they have a lot to do with each other. ”

"You have a point. Moreover, Wanfu Street is very close to Madame's house.

"So, the death of Fu Yucheng's father and son, both the lady and the man are suspicious?"

"Hmm. Now, let's go to the man's house first. ”

"However, the address of his house has not been found out......"

"I already know. Didn't you just say '8 Dew Street'?"

Lang Xiaobai smiled while ringing the electric bell to ask the maid to prepare the car.

When they arrived at their destination, it was already dark. The nearby forest park was pitch black. No. 8 is a building with a high stone wall on the outside. They got out of the car, circled the stone wall, and hid in the bushes near the gate, watching the movement.

After a while, the door opened, and a man poked his head out and looked around before stepping out.

"It's him!" Lang Xiaobai and Li Yunshan followed and got on the public tram together.

The tram stopped at Wanfu Street Station, and the man got off the train and walked towards Fu Yucheng's old man's house. After climbing the dirt slope near the house, he stared at the inside of the house as if he had something on his mind.

"What the hell is he looking at?" Li Yunshan asked.

The man watched for a while, walked downhill, strolled forward, and Lang Xiaobai and the others continued to follow.

Suddenly, the man quickened his pace and ran towards the bend in Wanfu Street.

The two of them followed...... However, when they reached the corner, there was no sign of the man. There was a wide road ahead, and there was not even an alley on either side of the road. Under the light of the street lamp, the road surface is like daylight, but there is not even a shadow of a puppy on the road.

Early the next morning, Lang Xiaobai was in the study, thinking about what happened the night before, and the secretary Lu Shu came over and said:

"Mr. Lang Xiaobai, your phone number."

At the end of the hallway, the telephone room was a narrow, dark room with an old curtain hanging from the door. Lang Xiaobai entered the telephone room, turned on the light, picked up the microphone, and heard a familiar voice: "Hey, are you Brother Hao?" I'm Li Yunshan, good morning!"

"Good morning! Where are you?"

"At the teahouse near the man's house on Bailu Street."

"Did the man come home?"

"He came home in the middle of the night last night and is still at home. The Security Bureau believes that he is Xiao Xiurong's accomplice and is preparing to arrest him. In a while, Deputy Inspector Lu Pei will be here, and I'm watching that guy. ”
