Xu Jing glanced at him and said: "When the tenants open the room, the inn will record their basic situation, this Fan Langjun is a native of Xijing, and he left his address, and I have sent someone to check the address." ”

The government stipulates that when a tenant comes to stay in a hotel, the owner must record his name, where he is coming from, where he is going, and the reason for staying in the hotel.

Because this is Xijing, the investigation is also extremely frequent and severe, if it is found that it is not in place, it will be fined and closed for a period of time, and the business qualification may be cancelled, so the merchants in Xijing generally pay attention to these work.

It's just that in ancient times, the information was not circulated, and it was common for tenants to falsify their information, and foreign tenants were better, because Lu Yin could not be forged if he wanted to, but it was difficult for local tenants.

Therefore, Xu Jing did not have much hope for the so-called address left by Fan Langjun.

Sure enough, after a while, the people sent out by Xu Jing came back and saluted: "Madam, we searched for the address you said, but the family who lived there was surnamed Liu, and he said that their family never had a Lang Jun surnamed Fan, and there was no surname Fan in the surrounding neighborhood!" ”

Xu Jing, who had expected it, nodded lightly and said, "It's hard work." ”

The shopkeeper Cao's face was slightly pale, for fear that the people in the government would accuse him of not being careful in his work, so he hurriedly said: "This Langjun said with a Xijing accent and said...... Said that he opened a shop nearby, during this time and the daughter-in-law of the family quarreled, so to open a room, when the mood is not comfortable, come to live, the villain saw that he said the head of the way, so he did not suspect, not to mention that the inn was busy during that time, the villain, the villain did not think so much about his business, and then he only came once or twice, although the villain felt strange, but, but also just thought that he and his daughter-in-law reconciled as before......"

Yao Shaoyin reassured him: "We know that sometimes the information left by the tenant is really difficult to verify, we understand." ”

Qu Langjun on the side looked like he was shocked, "Why is this! Then, how can we find out the murderer of my mother? ”

Reader, although he was admitted to Xiucai, is still just a scholar who buries his head in dead books after all.

Xu Jing looked at him and comforted: "This murderer is very cautious, every detail is well considered, it must not be so easy for us to catch, but it doesn't mean that we can't catch him." ”

Yao Shaoyin also said: "That's right, Qu Langjun rest assured, our government office misjudged your A-Niang's case before, and this time we will catch the murderer who killed your A-Niang no matter what, and never let your A-Niang be wronged." Now it seems that your A-Niang's case is the same murderer as the case that happened this morning, I don't know if Qu Langjun knows, where did your A-Niang go before she was killed, and who did she get along with? ”

Qu Langjun shook his head and said with a sad expression: "I ...... I don't know, I told you before, I live in the academy all the year round and rarely go home, I only know that my aunt will pick up tofu and sell it in the city every day. And when I go home, she is always at home with me, so I don't know where she usually goes......

As for the people who get along closely, my aunt doesn't seem to get along with anyone very closely, my aunt's temperament is too sensitive, the people in the village are not very willing to associate with my aunt, and my aunt herself doesn't seem to like to associate with others......

Perhaps, the people in our village know more about this than I do. ”

After all, the people in the village are the ones who stay with his aunt every day.

Yao Shaoyin nodded and turned to Xu Jing, "Xu Niangzi, I plan to go to Baiyu Village again, do you want to go together?" ”

Xu Jing looked up at the sky, it was already afternoon, and the sky was beginning to dim.

She remembered the little things in her family, and smiled helplessly: "I still have something to do at home, but now it is clear, Sister-in-law Wu's case and Jiang Sanniang's case are likely to be related, so as long as you find out who they have been in contact with at the same time during this time, you can find a breakthrough in this case."

Another point, I think this murderer's crime should have only started during this time, although he is cautious by nature, but obviously, he is not very familiar with the government's method of solving the case. ”

It is commonly known as anti-detection capabilities.

Yao Shaoyin was stunned, "How can you see it?" ”

"Because, in both of his cases, he left a clue that is fatal."

Xu Jing said in a deep voice: "It's footprints, Jiang Sanniang's case, we saw the strangeness through the footprints, and Wu's sister-in-law's case, although we didn't see the footprints left by the murderer at that time, but the marks left by the new shoes and the old shoes are still somewhat different.

He was fortunate that the time of the crime was at the end of the year, and there was a lot of work in the government office, and the personnel were not uniform, if he had committed a crime in a similar way before then, we must have known that this person existed.

Of course, it is also possible that he did not use this method to kill people before, but now he has used this method twice in a row, which means that he has formed a habit, and I am afraid that if he realizes that there is such a loophole in his method, he will change his method of killing. ”

This murderer is obviously very smart, and although there are immature points in his methods, it is these immature places that set off his talent for killing.

Many people kill people for the first time, they are in a hurry, and it is inevitable that they will leave a lot of flaws, but this murderer is completely because of his own temperament, so he can hide his immaturity so well, and only through the small flaws of footprints are revealed.

This murderer, Xu Jing has no doubt that he will grow up very quickly, if he is not caught as soon as possible, he is afraid that it will be difficult to catch him again.

Yao Shaoyin's face also became serious, and said: "Don't worry, if you can't solve this case, we won't be able to celebrate the New Year with peace of mind, and the big guys will do their best!" ”

Xu Jing nodded and said, "Then the matter of investigating the two deceased will be handed over to you, and I will go to Xijing Mansion tomorrow to understand the situation." ”

After saying that, he turned around and walked out.

Seeing this, Jiang Yu, who had been silent on the side, raised his bottomless eyes slightly, glanced at her, then stood up straight and followed silently.

Xu Jing almost immediately noticed Jiang Yu who was following up, and couldn't help but pause slightly, and looked at him inexplicably, "Doesn't Jiang Erlang want to follow up on this case?" I have something to go home next, you can follow Yao Shaoyin and them......"

"Yao Shaoyin, they are just going to find out the news, I have eyes and know who is promoting Fang Cai's case."

Jiang Erlang lowered his eyes and looked at her, and suddenly pulled the corners of his mouth meaninglessly, "With your help to investigate Sister A's case, I don't worry, Sister Aquan has knowledge, and she will definitely be glad that you are investigating this case." ”

Xu Jing looked at his eyes and couldn't help but be even more confused.

He's ...... Kill her?

Xu Jing didn't understand what he wanted to do, so he pondered and said, "So, you came here today to see if I am qualified to investigate your sister's case." ”

Jiang Yu was slightly stunned, and couldn't help lowering his head slightly, and the corners of his mouth raised a little helplessly, "are very shrewd in investigating cases, but they are confused in some places. Xu Niangzi still remembers that when the branch of Tianyi Pavilion in Xijing had just opened, I went to patronize it, and at that time you asked me how my sister was after returning to Jiang's house, and I said, you can come and see my sister when you are free, my sister likes you very much, and if you go to see her, she will be very happy. ”

Xu Jing remembered that she was not so familiar with Jiang Sanniang, not to mention that Tianyi Pavilion and Guangming Hall, which was supported by the Jiang family, were still hostile, so it was impossible for her to really go to the Jiang family to visit Jiang Sanniang.

It's just that she couldn't say that, and said with a fake smile: "I was busy with affairs during that time, in fact, in my heart, I also really wanted to visit Jiang Sanniang." ”
