Chapter 45: Meeting

Pei Ye walked over slowly, and the corpse's hanging feet were at the same height as his abdominal navel. He looked up at the face with his head down, and there was a relationship with itβ€”it was one of the three people he met in the forest that day.

The corpse collapsed in the chest and abdomen, and he was undoubtedly the biggest target to endure this terrible explosion, and with a single blow, he was already alive and dead.

The window behind him was pushed outward, Pei Ye walked to the window and looked, first the backyard outside the window, and after turning over the wall, there were dense houses.

What happened in this room seemed to be obvious at a glance: the murderer pushed the door in, blew him up at the man who was sitting upright eating and drinking, and then immediately pushed the window and left.

But Pei Ye walked back to the door again, leaving a pair of light slimy footprints here.

The slime is nothing, the rain washes the streets, there is always something that is not dry, and there are a few wet muds in the backyard just overlooking down. But if there was wet mud at the door, Pei Ye turned out the door, but there was no clearer mud mark.

Of course, the mud on the soles of the feet is getting less and less, how can there be inside the door, but there are no traces outside the door?

Pei Ye turned around and walked to Lao Zhang's side.

"Shopkeeper Zhang, I really didn't want to embarrass you today." The man stood by the window, "You just have to tell me what the people who entered the restaurant looked like and what clothes they wore when my brother died." ”

"This good man, I didn't take a nap, it's true that no new guests came in!"

"So you're saying he's lurking at the other table early in the morning? Who was in the building at the time - who was the single person at the table? ”

"There are five or six tables here, as if there is no single table. Otherwise, I really don't know."

The atmosphere was silent for a while, the man looked at him quietly, and Lao Zhang trembled: "Wang Gang Master, I, I am really."

"My brother came here early in the morning to have a drink, and there weren't many guests in the whole building. Now he's dead, and you're telling me you don't know anything? Wang Shou's flat tone did not change, and it was not as cold as Chai's steward, but Lao Zhang was panicked.

Pei Ye stepped forward, and the man looked at him with a pair of eagle eyes: "What a coincidenceβ€”do you see something?" If you want the shopkeeper to clear up the involvement, you have to come up with some news. ”

Pei Li pulled Lao Zhang to the back first: "If he knows, he knows, if he doesn't know, he doesn't know, what are you lying about?" ”

The man let out a "hehe".

Pei Ye ignored it, turned his head and asked, "Uncle Zhang, did you clean the second floor in the morning?" ”

Lao Zhang was stunned: "No, no, unless Xiao Er takes the initiative to sweep, but he is so lazy"

Pei Ye walked to the window and lowered his head and shouted, "Little Er, did you sweep the floor this morning?" ”

Xiao Er, who was squatting downstairs, raised his head, and his voice changed a little: "No, no sweep." ”

Lao Zhang said: "It's good that he can get up this morning, maybe he will still be lazy in the past." ”

Pei Ye nodded.

But if it is not cleaned, how can the mud marks disappear?

Unless the dust and mud on the soles of the murderer's shoes are not enough to leave footprints in normal walking, the reason why they remain in the house is because of Jiuli!

Did the murderer talk to the deceased for a considerable period of time before he did it?

And during this time, the deceased still ate and drank as before, did not flee and did not draw a knife?

β€” and then he was suddenly killed.

Pei Ye pondered, feeling that this process was too strange, but he didn't think it through for a while.

At this time, there were many but not chaotic steady footsteps downstairs, and when Pei Li turned around, he saw that Zhao Shenjun, who was not angry and arrogant, was already standing at the door, and the shadow behind him was followed by five or six poor people.

Pei Ye breathed a sigh of relief and arched his hand: "Lord Zhao." ”

The man next to him also hurriedly took two steps forward and saluted, and said with a smile: "Zhao's demeanor in joining the army is still the same." ”

Zhao Fu first glanced at the scene in the room from beginning to end, and then his eyes fell on Pei Ye and frowned: "Did you also last time?" ”

Pei Ye bent down and arched his hand: "My lord, I met by chance last time, and the shopkeeper of the restaurant this time is from my township." ”

Zhao Senjun didn't look at him at all, turned his head and pointed at Pei Li at the officials who followed behind him: "Check him." ”

An official in a green suit and a sword came out, bowed his head to Pei Li, and came to the corner of the room.

Pei Ye walked over, and before he could make up his mind, he heard the person in front of him frown and shouted, "Do you understand the rules?" Asked before pressing, the sword was unloaded! ”

Pei Ye was stunned: "I'm sorry! He raised his hand and took off both the sword and the sword case.

The official took out a pen and paper: "Name?" ”

Soon after the inquiry, Pei Li's background was naturally innocent, and he didn't find anything to do with the Huxin Gang, but he did go out with the shopkeeper.

At this time, Zhao Senjun had finished inspecting the corpse, and said coldly: "The murderer is really ruthless. ”

Pei Li was stunned: "Lord Zhao, do you know who the murderer is?" ”

Zhao Senjun turned around and walked out the door.

Pei Ye was stunned: "Lord Zhao? ”

Zhao joined the army and stood still, tilting his head and looking at him expressionlessly: "Get out!" ”

Pei Ye was stunned, opened his mouth and didn't speak.

"Chicken Sichen pig eats, cat catches mouse dog barks, no one has taught you the rules? Who the are you asking Lao Tzu all the time? ”

"I'm sorry Lord Zhao, I thought there might be something that could help."

"I said." Zhao Senjun said coldly.

Pei Ye pursed his lower lip, still bowed down and hugged his fists and said, "Lord Zhao, I do have a clue, I just want to help you catch the murderer as soon as possible." ”

Zhao Senjun was determined, Pei Ye immediately told the discovery of the shoe prints just now, Zhao Senjun frowned after hearing this, turned his head to the entourage behind him and said: "Write it down, check it, check it." ”

After saying that, he went straight downstairs and chased directly in the direction of the window pushing open.

Wang Shou followed him and sent him downstairs, Pei Li stood silent for a while, he wanted to see the scene again, but when he saw that Lao Zhang was at a loss to follow, he also picked up his sword and followed.

When he came downstairs, Zhao Senjun had already left far away, Pei Ye looked at his back, and suddenly frowned and looked at Wang Shou on the side: "Since Lord Zhao knows who the murderer is, why don't you ask him?" What is it hard to do for the shopkeeper here? ”

The man snorted and said lightly: "Lord Zhao wants the murderer, I will ask the accomplice, what's wrong?" ”

Pei Ye looked at him and suddenly understood.

They actually know where the murderer came from, and they don't have many doubts about this case.

Pei Ye naturally knew that this matter had absolutely nothing to do with Lao Zhang, and there was no need to look at his trembling appearance now, Pei Ye knew that he was timid as early as when he was in Fenghuai - he never dared to enter the mountain. Now that he has only been in the state city for more than 20 days, how can he collude with any killer.

Wang Shou played with a wrench: "Shopkeeper Zhang, you still handed over the clues of the murderer earlier, I expect you to be deceived by him, and I won't do anything to you." ”

Lao Zhang just begged hard to explain, how did he know what the murderer was.

"Okay, then we'll have to look it up ourselves." Wang Shou put the wrench into his palm and shook it, and looked up at the restaurant.
