Midnight.

In the old house of Meng Qinghui's family.

In the corner of the compound, Meng Qingxi knelt on the ground, had already lit incense candles and yellow paper, and was kowtowing like pounding garlic and sincerely repenting.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I hurt you, everyone, and the whole village! It's all me to vent my personal anger, I didn't think about the consequences, I am willing to lose my longevity, repent and reform, please forgive me, woo...... I know it's wrong, I really know it's wrong...... Woowoo woo ......"

Meng Qingxi bowed sincerely, wept bitterly, and between confessions, he kept looking into the distance, waiting for the arrival of the beautiful fox fairy.

"Why do you ...... How do you want to do that? ”

coldly, a woman's voice came from behind him.

"Huh!?" Meng Qingxi was startled at first, but when he looked back, he found that the beautiful fox fairy had come to his side at some point.

Although the fox fairy had no halo on his body, Meng Qingxi was still convinced, and immediately defended:

"I really didn't expect it to be that serious! The man lied to me, he said that the poison he gave me could only slightly poison them, and it was not fatal!

"I just want to take revenge on Meng Qinghui and embarrass him, but I can't think of it...... It will cause such serious consequences! ”

"Then why did you retaliate against Meng Qinghui?" As a result, the question turned out to be a man's voice.

"Huh?" Meng Qingxi was suddenly startled, and looked at the voice, but saw that a fence wall beside him was removed, and there were a lot of people standing behind him!

In addition to the three Lizheng in their village, there are also Baozheng Li Youcai, Meng Zhichao and his wife, Li Qian and Xu Zhen himself.

And the one who asked was naturally Xu Zhen.

"This ......" Meng Qingxi hurriedly looked at the fox fairy, but saw that the fox fairy wiped the disguise on his face, and it turned out to be the female scribe who followed Xu Zhen, Qin Yin.

"Huh?"

Meng Qingxi realized that he had been fooled, and he collapsed to the ground in fright.

For a while, the scene was silent, only the burning red candle made a sizzling sound.

"It turns out ......" Yu Niang raised her hand and pointed at Meng Qingxi with a sad face, "It's you!! ”

"I ...... No...... It's not ......" Meng Qingxi shook his head helplessly, his face twitched, and he trembled......

"Why!?" One of them stood up and scolded, "Why did you do that? Why? ”

"Like...... The reason is quite simple, right? At this time, Li Qian complained from behind, "Isn't it Meng Qinghui who robbed his daughter-in-law?" He was the first suspect at the beginning, if he had been interrogated at that time, hum ......"

"I ...... I ......" Meng Qingxi still didn't come to his senses, recalling what happened to the fox fairy just now, he still felt so real.

Wow......

Xu Zhen took out a water bag and splashed the water in the water bag on Meng Qingxi's face.

"Huh!?" Meng Qingxi was stirred by the cold water, and then he finally came back to his senses, and his eyes were much brighter than before.

It turned out that he had been hit by the incense before.

At this moment, looking at everything in front of him, Meng Qingxi was completely awake:

"You...... You guys are here to lie to me!? No...... No, you ...... How did you find out that I had a problem? Impossible? ”

"When I was here a few days ago to restore the scene," Xu Zhen said, "I paid special attention to you, you were at that time with the corners of your eyebrows sinking and your eyes dodging, which was incompatible with the curious expressions of other people, obviously with a ghost in mind."

"After I deliberately lit the firecrackers, everyone else turned white with fright, their bodies trembled, and they tried to flee, but you were slower than all of them, and you didn't move at all.

"This is called the irritation response under stimulation, which means that your heart has been nervous and cramped to the peak, and if you are stimulated at this time, you will behave calmer than others."

Xu Zhen's super professional explanation made everyone look at each other.

"That's it...... That's it? But ......" Meng Qingxi was obviously unconvinced, "my son also drank poisonous wine, you shouldn't doubt me?" ”

"This is also very simple," Xu Zhen said the answer, "Criminal investigation and solving the case must talk about the original motive. After I screened everyone in the village, only your motivation was at the forefront, so I checked you out with the mentality of giving it a try.

"It's true that your son also drank poisoned wine, but that doesn't serve as a reason to rule you out," Xu Zhen said, "You said that you didn't attend Meng Qinghui's wedding banquet at that time due to illness, but I asked a lot of people, but none of them knew what illness you had.

"Your house is only a few dozen meters away from the scene of Meng Qinghui's wedding banquet, and you are his uncle and brother, what kind of illness can make you not go to the wedding banquet?"

"That'...... Then I ......," Meng Qingxi said, "just because I didn't go to the wedding banquet, I shouldn't be suspicious?" I didn't have a chance to poison me, did I? ”

"Wrong," Xu Zhen corrected, "This is the illusion you gave everyone, just because there was a poisoning incident at the wedding banquet, everyone will naturally think that the murderer who poisoned the murderer was the one who did it at the wedding banquet."

"But in fact, long before the wedding feast, you had already poisoned those two jars of wine!"

"Huh!?" Meng Qingxi hit a spirit, which was obviously said by Xu Zhen.

"Are you pretending to ask the parties one by one?" Xu Zhense said, "Meng Qinghui's family is so arrogant, the wine cellar is full of good wines, there shouldn't be many people who can know which two jars he uses to entertain guests."

"You are Meng Qinghui's uncle and brother, and because you have been running away all the year round and have rich experience, Meng Qinghui has a lot of things to discuss with you, and his son's wedding is naturally no exception.

"So you know for sure that he will end up entertaining his guests with those two jars of yellow seal, so he puts the poison into the wine early."

"This ...... This ......" Meng Qingxi still wanted to quibble, but he couldn't think of a reason for a while.

"After suspecting you, I took the opportunity to sneak into your house and quietly observe." Xu Zhen said again, "Xuandao burns incense and bows to the hour, but you kneel in front of the statue all day long, which shows that you are empty-hearted!"

"Meng Qingxi," Xu Zhen said, "I came up with this plan when I saw that you liked to read books on Immortal Cultivation Ascension. Now that the gods you believe in are manifestly spiritual, they have given you the clearest hint of all—atonement for your sins! ”

"Ah......" As soon as these words came out, Meng Qingxi fell to his knees and fell to the ground and cried.

The cry of "woo woo woo ......" resounded throughout the courtyard, but in the ears of everyone, they felt more and more angry.

"Say!" One of them shouted, "What the hell is going on? Meng Qinghui is so good to you, why do you want to hurt him like this? ”

"He's good to me?" Hearing this, Meng Qingxi stopped crying and shouted indignantly, "Since I was a child, he has never treated me as a person!" ”

Oh?

Everyone was surprised.

"Relying on his family's money, no matter what mistakes he makes, let me take the blame for him!" Meng Qingxi said hatefully, "After the incident, he threw me some small favors, my parents died early, and the family was poor, so I could only rely on him and live on his alms."

"It's the same when I grow up, although I set up a delivery fleet, all my business still depends on him, and I still have to look at his face.

And his problems are still the same, and they are getting worse. One day, he gave me a woman and asked me to marry that woman, and that woman ......" Meng Qingxi said tremblingly, "It's Zhixiao and his mother!" ”

Yes?

Xu Zhen grinned, and then realized that the root cause of that disaster was there?
