Chapter 36: Serial Murder (2nd Update)
Seeing the hand stretched out in front of him, Xiao Huaian was stunned and carefully shook it.
This was the first time he shook A-Niang's hand.
Every time he sees other children holding his aunt, he will be very sad and aggrieved.
Why is his aunt not like other aunts?
Now, he finally held A-Niang's hand.
A-Niang's hands are soft and comfortable.
Xiao Huaian couldn't help but quietly raise the corners of his mouth, and his little hand clenched tighter.
Feeling the little hand that tightened instantly, Xu Jing was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but glance at the little man beside him.
The child's hands were so small that he could only hold her two fingers, and even if he increased his strength, it was just like a little milk cat scratching people, soft.
But the endless attachment and joy conveyed in it made the paw seem to scratch her heart, itchy, and there was an indescribable feeling.
At this moment, an anxious and hurried voice suddenly came from not far away, "Xiao Langjun, where are you?" Xiao Langjun! ”
Xu Jing suddenly felt that the little doll next to her stiffened, and before she could ask anything, he suddenly broke free of her hand, turned around and ran into the crowd.
Xu Jing was a little stunned.
Cheng Qingqing said anxiously: "Why did this kid run away again?" Sister Jing, are we going to catch up? ”
"No, you don't."
Xu Jing couldn't help but wonder if she was tricked by that child, looked at her empty hand in an instant, and said helplessly: "It is estimated that the person looking for him has come, let's go back." ”
Although that child made Xu Jing quite concerned, it was just a small episode in her life, and she still had many things to do, so she quickly left the child behind.
The first thing she had to do was to make the medicine she needed.
Although Cheng Xianbai did not approve of Xu Jing Pharmaceutical's sale, the efficiency was still good, and at noon the next day, he bought back the medicinal materials that Xu Jing wanted, and moved to her new home in person, along with Cheng Qingqing.
As soon as Cheng Qingqing saw Xu Jing, she said with a small face: "Sister Jing, can I stay at your house and help you?" Since the news of our Xinglin Hall going to have a free clinic has spread, there are so many people who come to our Xinglin Hall that they can't receive it! There were also people who came to Xinglin Hall the day before yesterday, and I sent them away according to what you said, but now there are too many people, I really can't cope with it, so my brother proposed to simply close Xinglin Hall in the past few days and wait for the day of the free clinic to open. ”
And as Sister Jing said, most of those people came to inquire about the news, and as soon as they came in, they threatened to find the goddess doctor of Xinglintang, and several people still regarded her as the goddess doctor, and they surrounded her and refused to let her go, if it wasn't for Brother Ah coming back in time, she didn't know what to do!
This kind of scene, she has seen it for the first time in sixteen years!
Xu Jing raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "So exaggerated? ”
"Of course! Sister Jing, you don't even know how famous you are now! ”
Cheng Qingqing said excitedly: "Originally, because you saved Sister-in-law Lu on the street that day, your deeds spread in the market, and many people said that you saved Sister-in-law Lu with a method that should have killed people, it was like a miracle, and it was not much worse than the legendary miracle doctor with the flesh and bones of the living dead."
Yesterday, Brother Wu also asked Wu Dalang to help us spread the news, Wu Dalang usually sells wine with a mouth, that mouth is very powerful, he can say black to white, crooked to straight, I don't know how he preached that we are going to free clinics, everyone is rushing over like crazy, I have to set one of the 150 places now! ”
The corners of Xu Jing's eyebrows couldn't help twitching.
Seeing that Xu Jing's face was wrong, Cheng Xianbai, who already had a shadow, immediately said: "Don't worry, although that guy Dongfeng is unreliable on weekdays, but this time it is related to the future of our Xinglin Hall, I told him not to talk nonsense!" He probably just preached that we would only do this kind of free clinic once, and there would be no such good thing as letting the goddess doctor treat the disease for free in the future. ”
Xu quietly glanced at him.
Preferably so!
But how much fame has become for her? She's been busy with her own business all these days, and she hasn't paid attention to her reputation outside.
Thinking of the crowded medical hall, Cheng Qingqing didn't know whether to be happy or sad, so he sighed and said: "The news of our Xinglintang free clinic is almost overshadowing the murder that happened last night, and if it goes on like this, it will definitely attract the attention of the three big medical halls." ”
Xu Jing frowned slightly, due to her professional habits, she immediately caught a certain word, "Murder?" ”
"That's right, Sister Jing doesn't even know about the murder?"
Cheng Qingqing said: "Anping County has not been peaceful recently, and there have been several murders.
Last night's murder was particularly penetrating, and it is said that ...... It is said that the body was found by a small trader, the small trader lived outside the city, yesterday he did business a little late, was to go home in the dark, on the way, others had three urgency, so he walked to a tree on the side of the road, who expected...... Unexpectedly, I suddenly felt water dripping down my head.
He thought it was raining, and when he looked up, he found that the tree was ...... There was a corpse hanging from the tree! It is said that the corpse's eyes were still open, and it looked at him gloomily, but it frightened the little trader! ”
"Yikes!"
Before Xu Jing could react, a scream suddenly came from behind her, but it was Chunxiang who came over with tea.
Looking at Chunxiang's pale little face, Xu Jing was a little helpless, it's not like they haven't seen a real corpse, can they be so afraid?
Cheng Xianbai was very surprised when he saw that Xu Jing's face did not change, and sighed: "It is worthy of being the legendary goddess doctor, ordinary women will be frightened when they hear this kind of thing, but Xu Niangzi has nothing to do." ”
Xu Jing glanced at him, didn't bother to pay attention to him, looked at Cheng Qingqing and said, "The deceased was hanged?" ”
Cheng Qingqing was stunned, she was also surprised that Xu Jing's face did not change, in fact, when she said this herself, she was too scared.
At this time, seeing that Xu Jing was still asking for details, she couldn't help but glance at her in surprise, shook her head and said, "According to ...... Said no, the vendor said that when he saw the body, it was covered with scars, as if it had been cut with a knife, but I don't know what it was. ”
Xu Jing frowned.
Was someone slashed with a knife? Could it be a vendetta?
Cheng Xianbai saw that Xu Jing seemed to be really interested, and said in disbelief and admiration: "What does this girl know, she can't sleep at night when she listens to a ghost story on weekdays, and she just listens to that incident, but she doesn't dare to listen carefully."
If the is really interested, she will know more than this girl if she pulls someone on the street to ask, after all, this is not the first time that a similar case has been filed, and it is said that about eleven days ago, someone also found a corpse covered in scars. ”
Eleven days ago?
Xu Jing suddenly thought of something, and said in a deep voice: "That corpse, but an antique dealer found it when he returned to the county?" ”
Cheng Xianbai was stunned for a moment, and said incredulously: "How do you know?" ”
It really is.
Previously, Chunyang had told her about this matter, and also said that Xiao Yi was likely to come to Anping County for that case.
It's no wonder that this case will alarm Xiao Yi, this is clear, it is a serial murder case!
And the murderer with blood on his hands is likely to be in Anping County!
She couldn't help but rejoice that she had moved decisively.
Seeing that Cheng Xianbai was still looking at her, waiting for her to answer, Xu Jing retracted her thoughts and said lightly: "It's nothing." If Qingqing wants to stay, just stay, I want to make medicine, and I just lack a partner. ”
Although she was very concerned about that case, she had previously said that she would not take the initiative to find the man, and she was now busy with her own affairs, so she could only stay at the level of concern.
