Chapter 48: Traces (1)
In the second half of the night, the three dragonflies finally came out of the woods and saw a small house faintly lit on the yellow earth.
"Boss, come to the three upper rooms!" The slightly trembling door of the inn was kicked open by Feng Fu.
"Where did the milk doll come from, it was noisy and dreamy in the middle of the night." A dark-skinned man came down from the stairs yawning. It seems that he came out in the middle of the night to go to the hut.
"Where did the big black bear come from, your mother is calling you to go home and sleep in the woods over there." Feng Fu crossed his waist and said.
"You! Good for you, stinky girl who hasn't dried up! As he spoke, the man was about to rush down and beat the phoenix.
As soon as the person arrived in front of Feng Su, Feng Su said: "I just escaped from the broken forest, I'm too tired tonight, I'll beat you tomorrow." ”
"You ......," the man pointed at her, angry. If you do it now, you won't have a reputation for taking advantage of people's danger, but if you let her go like this, you're afraid that others will say that you're useless.
"This big brother black bear, my sister is ignorant and offended." The dragonfly hurriedly put on a smiling face to stop it.
The man looked at the dragonfly, wondering if she was mocking herself or if she was really apologizing.
At this time, the boss hurriedly came out to persuade the fight, and asked the shopkeeper to take the man away.
"Boss, three upper rooms." Feng Xu said again.
The boss squinted at the three of them, and saw that their clothes were shabby, and their hair was unkempt, and they looked like they had fled from somewhere, and they didn't have much money on them.
"There is only one inferior room, a tael of silver."
Feng Xu thought for a while, took out the bulging purse from his pocket, took out a tael of silver and put it on the table, "Help us boil three buckets of hot water and send them in." ”
After saying that, he pulled the dragonfly and the flower up the stairs.
The boss was dumbfounded when he looked at the silver on the table, and it wasn't until they went up to the second floor and asked him which room it was.
"The one that stands in the way." The boss said stunned.
Entering the room, Feng Su didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and walked straight to the side of the bed and leaned over. Although the bed board was a little hard, it couldn't resist the onset of sleepiness, and it didn't take long for the sound of her even breathing to come from the room.
"What do you think?" Hua Qian looked at the dragonfly and asked.
"Sleep, I'm tired all day, and I'm sleepy." Dragonfly back to her.
"Are you sure?" Hua Qian looked at the door uneasily.
Dragonfly yawned, walked to the side of the bed and leaned against Feng Fu, and said intermittently: "Sister, don't you have medicinal powder, just sprinkle some at the door." ”
It is very dangerous to show your wealth in such a desolate place, as the saying goes: if you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of thieves.
Seeing that the dragonfly was also asleep, Hua Qian sprinkled some medicinal powder at the window and door, took out a mat and spread it on the table, and fell asleep.
Near dawn, the temperature plummeted, and the boss gathered his clothes, but he couldn't stand it, so he went to the backyard and woke up the guy to work with him.
——
The next day, after the dragonfly and the others woke up, they found a few more footprints on the ground, and if they looked closely, they could see that they were left by two people who had entered one after another.
"Let's see if you've lost any money." The dragonfly reminded them.
Feng Xu touched his body, but he couldn't find his purse, and even the money he brought with him was lost, so the dragonfly didn't have to search for the things on his body, and he must have lost it.
"Sister Hua Qian, what kind of medicine powder are you sprinkling?" Dragonfly asked.
"There are two kinds, one is the drug, as long as you inhale the powder, you can put people down, and the other is the original itching powder created by Hua Yicheng, which will continue to itch without an antidote, and the poisonous powder will slowly penetrate into the skin, infiltrate into the internal organs, and die until death."
"Sister Hua, you clean up here, we'll wait for you." After speaking, the dragonfly pulled the phoenix downstairs.
"Sister, my money bag is gone." Feng Su said with a bitter face as she went downstairs.
"It's okay, the eldest sister has already poisoned the room last night, if the thief doesn't come to us to get the antidote, he will definitely die of intestinal rot." The dragonfly said leisurely.
When the boss heard Feng Xu say that the money bag was missing, he originally wanted to go up to catch people, but when he heard the dragonfly's next words, his face immediately changed, and he pulled up his sleeves to cover the back of his hand.
His actions are all in full view, and these words were specially addressed to him this morning.
He just revealed his wealth last night, and the money is gone this morning, and his suspicion is the greatest.
"Boss, there are no steamed buns, come to three steamed buns." Dragonfly sat on a stool and turned her head to look at the boss.
"Yes, yes......" The boss smiled flatteringly, and quickly turned around and went to the kitchen.
"There's something in the bun." The woman at the table next to them reminded Dragonfly in a low voice.
The dragonfly gave her a grateful look and smiled. In fact, when she first came down, she saw that the bun in front of the woman had not been touched much, so she guessed that there was a problem, and she just wanted to give the boss a chance to poison her.
"Thank you sister for the reminder." Dragonfly Road.
"This is a black shop, the girl's family, leave early." With that, the woman left the money and left.
Feng Su looked at her distant back, dressed in a strong suit, wearing a hat, her veil fluttering in the wind, and couldn't help but admire: "What a beautiful sister." ”
"In case the veil is lifted, it's ugly." Dragonfly joked with her.
"You're right, this girl doll is a complete ugly monster, and she looks like a shocking person." The tall, dark-skinned man they had met last night sat next to them.
Even when I think about the woman's face now, the man can't stop wanting to vomit.
"You big black bear, why are you sitting next to us, go, go." Feng Xu dislikes the authentic.
"Okay, you stinky girl with sharp teeth and sharp mouth, if the boss hadn't stopped me last night, grandpa would have made your ass bloom." As he spoke, he reached over and grabbed the phoenix.
When the dragonfly saw the scratches on his arm, she reached out and grabbed it, and asked him, "What's the matter with your arm?" ”
The traces on this are exactly the same as those caught by the shopkeeper, that is, his skin is really dark, and he can't see it if you don't look closely.
"You have to take care of it!" The man said that he wanted to withdraw his hand, but he couldn't move.
The dragonfly stared at him for a while, and couldn't help but shake her head, but she felt very strange.
"You're from Beiluo?" Dragonfly asked.
"Yes, yes and what?" The man asked rhetorically.
"How did you get the scratches on your arms?" Dragonfly asked again.
"It was itchy last night, and it was like this......"
Hearing the man say this, Feng Xu pointed at him and said, "It turned out to be you, the black bear!" ”
"It's not him." Dragonfly denied.
"Why not, then how could he scratch his arm like this."
At this time, Hua Qian came out of the back door and saw the dragonfly grabbing the man, a little far away, and he didn't see the scratches on the man's arms.
"Stealing our things last night, it was really the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper." Hua Qian said, and checked the three money bags in his hand.
"Sister Hua Qian, come and see." Dragonfly is colorful.
Hua Qian saw that she was so serious, so she hurriedly ran over to take a look, and immediately saw the clue.
"Who did you offend last night?" Hua Qian asked him.
The man saw that the three of them were not easy to deal with, so he said hesitantly: "I went to an ugly room last night and wanted to give her some color." ”
"And then?" Hua Qian asked.
"Then somehow, I came out, and after I came out, my body started to itch."
"What does that guy look like?" Hua Qian then asked.
"Wearing a hat, covering his face, and wearing clothes with a lot of patches sewn......"
"Isn't that the sister who just left?" Feng Su interjected.
"That's right! Not long after leaving, we should be able to catch up with us now! The dragonfly shook off the man's hand and chased after him.
——
In the early morning, Xiao Rong came to the Liu Mansion timidly, and Liu Luo took her into the backyard and pointed to a jade-faced man tied in the open space for her to see.
Xiao Rong looked in the direction, first confused, then slowly turned into surprise, and finally turned into sadness, and actually knelt on the ground and cried.
Natsu was unaware of what was happening here, he was observing his surroundings at the moment, planning where to escape.
"He's ...... He ......, "Xiao Rong couldn't believe his eyes.
Seeing that her emotions fluctuated so much, Liu Luo shook her head helplessly. It seems that this Xia Jin is really Xiao Rong's sister Xiao Qi.
Unexpectedly, the person who was abducted and trafficked in and humiliated in the past has now become a person who aids and abides. Help Jin San destroy the evidence, help him build this chain of interests, and harm more people.
"Miss Xiao Rong, I know that the truth is difficult to accept, if you want to blame the people behind these manipulations, you two sisters are just one of all the victims." Liu Luo patted her on the shoulder and comforted her.
"It's Red Wing, my maidservant killed Duan Gongzi." Xiao Rong choked up and said.
"Handmaiden?" Liu Luo repeated again, the maid of an Oiran lady has such strength?
"Red Wing was arranged by my mother in Miaozhuju two months ago, and she was not in Miaozhuju before." Xiao Rong explained.
Yun Feng, who was standing on the side, heard this, and suddenly remembered the list of suspects provided by the Duan family to him at that time, and all the people listed in it were people who did not have an alibi in the second half of the night, and there was no name "Red Wing" among them.
That list later wasted a lot of time to investigate, and after no result, he reversed it and started from Xiao Rong. In this way, the other party is stalling for time.
"Senior brother, I'll arrest her." Liu Luo also thought of this, so he asked Yun Feng with his eyes.
"No, no." Yun Bong shook his head.
It has been two days since Xiao Rong was rescued, and the other party must have noticed it and hid. At this point, there is no need to waste time on arrests.
"Continue to investigate Danxue Lou and Miaozhuju to see if there are any big fish behind them." After speaking, Yun Feng left the Liu Mansion and headed for the Duan Mansion.
It was noon, and Yun Jitong was sitting in the main hall of Duan's house, chatting with Duan Qingyin about interesting things about his youth.
"You were that tall back then." Duan Qingyin compared and said, "I often go over the wall with food to find you, and once I was almost caught by your family's family. ”
"Don't tell me, the horseshoe cake you bought at that time, I still read it, I invited a lot of cooks, but I can't make that taste." Yun Jitong said with a smile.
"The old man has long since passed away, and now his son has inherited the shop, but unfortunately, he has not been able to inherit the craft."
The two were chatting happily, and someone came to report, Yun Feng visited.
