Chapter 589 is elusive
Shirarou's face became ugly. He had already told Wu Ji about the new address and pseudonym when he visited the prison, so Wu Ji would know about it. However, Wu Ji was in prison, hiding from the guards, and took the risk to write a letter to him, there must be something important to say, but such an important letter was lost, who would steal it?
"It must be that woman!"
But why did she steal the letter? The door between the reception room and the bedroom is locked, and the lock is rusty, and the door to the bedroom is usually locked, and when I came in just now, it was also Shirahiro who opened the door with a key before entering.
But how did the woman manage to sneak through the reception room into the bedroom, steal the letter, and then escape through the window?
Bai Lang walked to the door in the middle, knocked on it with his hand, and pushed it hard, and couldn't help but be surprised.
The door was made of six planks, one of which shook with a slight push. He pushed harder, swaying up and down, and the plank fell
"Well, when was this and who did it? I didn't pay attention to this when I moved in, I wonder if there was anything suspicious?"
He pushed the other pieces harder, and all but this one were nailed.
"Even the smallest woman can't squeeze in, unless it's a monkey or a 7 or 8-year-old child."
He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly jumped up and said, "Lao Li, I want to go out for a while." He ran out of the door, hailed a taxi, and rushed to his former secret home. It is not rented out and is still empty. He slipped up through the back door, went upstairs and pushed the door to his room, and a plank fell to him.
"Sure enough, the two thefts were stolen, and the prisoner used the same method."
The thief who stole the cork that night must have entered and exited through a gap in the door, but how did the woman get in and out of such a small hole?
At this point, even the smart Bai Lang can't figure out the truth, who did it? Why did he steal the corks and letters? The mystery is becoming more and more elusive.
Afterwards, Bai Lang learned that the matter was related to a mother and son. And their mother and son have been tormented by the vampire Cheng Qiyan.
Soon, in the house of the evil counselor Cheng Qiyan, a healthy and very beautiful female cook came. Cheng Qiyan, who was very suspicious, once called her former employer, Counselor Su Hua, to inquire if this maid was reliable. The counselor's butler replied:
"She has an innocent background and is honest. Worked with us for seven years and is absolutely reliable. ”
After receiving such an answer, he was relieved.
However, this beautiful female cook is Bai Lang's subordinate. Every night, she slipped out the back door of the kitchen to meet Bai Lang.
"You don't have to be afraid, although Cheng Qiyan is suspicious, he would never have thought that you were arranged by me."
"But he once called the house of a counselor to inquire about me, and I had never done anything there!"
"You can rest assured of that. The counselor's butler is my subordinate, and he has already given Cheng Qiyan a satisfactory answer, so he will believe you. ”
"Got it, but what should I do?"
"I'll tell you the specifics slowly. Now, I'm going to hide in your servant's bedroom from tonight, and you have to help me find out the inside story of Cheng Qiyan's life, so that I can uncover his secrets, which is your current task. ”
"Okay."
"In addition, this man is a demon with a human face and a beast's heart, and I must expose his sins in front of the world, so that he cannot mingle with the upper classes. Also, he has a glass cork that hides a huge secret. Wu Ji was arrested and imprisoned for this thing, and soon after, he could be sentenced to death. ”
"Huh? Wu Ji will be executed?" The woman's face immediately turned pale.
"But don't worry, he's a good boy, and I'll get him out of prison. But for this reason, you have to get your hands on that glass cork, as long as you get it, Wu Ji will be fine. Because the real murderer is Ye Lin. ”
"Oh, I see." The beautiful cookess nodded incessantly. She fell in love with Wu Ji, and in order to get him out of prison as soon as possible, she was more willing to help Bai Lang.
After that, Shirarou hid in the cook's room. Whenever Cheng Qiyan went out, he searched in various rooms. And the female cook also took advantage of the cleaning to help him find it.
After looking for a long time, Bai Lang still found nothing. He remembered that Cheng Qiyan's letter to Huang Yubiao wrote: "This thing is in front of your eyes...... so Bai Lang began to pay special attention to some things in front of him, such as the glass pot on the desk, and so on.
However, after searching for a while, I still couldn't find the glass stopper. He began to change his methods again, searching the table legs, the floor, the clock in the walls, etc., but he could not find the glass cork, nor did he find any secret documents or anything like that.
On this day, the female cook, who had just returned from shopping for groceries, took a letter and handed it to Bai Lang with a pale face.
"What letter? Who gave it to you?"
"While I was shopping for groceries, a gossip young man quietly put the letter in my basket and said, 'Give it to the boss hiding in your bedroom.'"
"Oh? Who is he?" Bai Lang opened the letter, which read:
Shiraro:
You don't have to work in vain, you're in danger right now, so let's let it go as soon as possible!
After reading the letter, Bai Lang didn't say a word. He looked at the letter, which was unfamiliar in handwriting, and thought, "This must be a warning to me from someone with bad intentions, and it seems that there are still people involved, so I need to be careful." ”
He hid in the servant's room all day, quietly thinking: What a bizarre case! There are so many people fighting for a glass cork. First Ye Lin and Wu Ji, then Huang Yubiao, and the mysterious female visitor. Of course, now I'm also involved in it, and I can't extricate myself.
Who the hell is that female visitor? Maybe it's the letter she sent. Bai Lang thought about it all night.
As it was almost dawn, he was just about to fall asleep when he faintly heard the door closing. He jumped up alertly, looked down from the third floor, and saw Cheng Qiyan quietly walking out of the gate. After a while, he walked back with a man with a masked face.
Bai Lang thought, who could this person be? He crept into the hallway, threw down the soft ladder that had been prepared along the back window, and climbed step by step to the study window and peeked in.
"It turned out to be a woman!"
He was taken aback, it turned out that Cheng Qiyan brought back from outside was a beautiful woman dressed as a man. She was tall, dressed in black, and although she was dressed plainly, she had an elegant demeanor, but her complexion was not good, and she looked very weak.
