() "Brother Qiao, this case is complicated and difficult to solve, even the people in the government feel that it is tricky, why did you agree to him?" Lingque'er came to the door a few steps, gently covered the door, and then turned around, looked at Qiao Zhengyu and complained.

Qiao Zhengyu smiled bitterly and said: "You have also seen that this case is complex and suspenseful, and it has only just begun, and several innocent people have already been involved and lost their lives, but the government is helpless."

"If this case is not solved, not only will it be difficult to explain the head, but I am afraid that the people in this city will not be at peace all day long, and I don't know when I will become the headless corpse. ”

Lingque'er shook her head and said: "Even if this is the case, what does this have to do with you?" Brother Qiao, I know that you have a kind heart and can't bear to refuse others, but you must also be self-aware, this case is helpless even for the government, how can you and I do it."

"Besides, you have repeatedly told me that the rivers and lakes are sinister, and this case obviously involves grievances in the rivers and lakes, so I am afraid that you and I will not be able to solve the problem at all. ”

Qiao Zhengyu didn't speak when he heard this, was silent for a moment, and said: "I know that you are for my good, but there is still a saying in the rivers and lakes, 'People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves.'" Since I promised someone, I should do it. Sister, you don't need to say it, I'm in charge of this matter. ”

Seeing his resolute attitude, Lingque'er knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he had to say, "Okay, Brother Qiao wants to be a big hero, what else do I have to say." If Brother Qiao solves this case, I'm afraid that even Murong Fu will look at you differently. ”

Qiao Zhengyu was stunned for a moment, and thought secretly: "It turns out that she has already seen my thoughts. This girl, don't look at the usual quiet and quiet, looking like a big girl, she can't think of a day is wrong, but she is becoming more and more ghostly. I couldn't help but be embarrassed and red-faced.

It turned out that since he met Murong Fu that day, he wanted to compare with him, and he knew that he couldn't compare with him in martial arts, so he had to compare his intelligence. Who wants to be seen through by the spirit sparrow, more or less embarrassed.

"Anyway, let's get back to the point and search the scene again to see if we can find anything. Qiao Zhengyu opened the curtain and slipped into the back room impatiently.

The scene in the room was no different from last night, and in the corner of the wall lay a cabinet, and two doors were open, and from inside some silk and satin came out.

At the bottom of the cabinet was a chest with gold trim and a lock on it. But at this time, there was no lock on the handle, but it was tilted to one side, apparently smashed with a hammer. And in a corner not far away, there is a golden copper lock, which stays quietly.

The box was half-toppled to the ground, its lid turned aside, but it was empty, there was nothing, and it seemed that someone had turned the box over and poured out its contents. Qiao Zhengyu rummaged through the pile of clothes next to him for a while, but found nothing.

Qiao Zhengyu was a little disappointed and looked to the left along the wall.

There was a dressing table with all sorts of ornaments stacked on the countertop. There are strips of bright red cloth, fragrant petals, and thin brushes used for thrushes, all piled up horizontally and vertically. One of the rouge boxes rolled off the countertop and fell to the floor, spilling rouge all over the floor.

In the center of the table is a bronze mirror, and when Qiao Zhengyu walked by, he inadvertently saw a vague figure flashing in the bronze mirror. "Well, that's interesting, ancient

They all use the bronze mirror to take care of themselves, and I don't know what the effect is?" Qiao Zhengyu suddenly had a thought in his heart, so he returned to the bronze mirror to shine again.

In the bronze mirror, a face soon appeared. It was a relatively handsome face, with a pair of bright eyes under the thin eyebrows of willow leaves. White teeth, white teeth are faintly penetrated from fair skin, straight nose bridge, and a pair of thin and moderately thick lips.

Qiao Zhengyu looked left and right in front of the bronze mirror, almost sticking to the bronze mirror for a while, and then moving away from the bronze mirror for a while, making various gestures. After taking pictures for a long time, I felt that the more I looked at it, the more pleasing it was to the eye, and I was full of joy, but I couldn't leave it anymore.

Just as he straightened his hair and was ready to admire it again, an accident happened. Because, at this time, in addition to his figure, there was actually another person in the mirror. I saw the man with long hair and white clothes, standing motionless behind him.

"Damn, what's the situation!" Qiao Zhengyu jumped up in shock, grabbed the door and ran out. I just ran a few steps on my feet, but I heard the sparrow laugh and said, "What are you running, am I so terrible?" He leaned forward and backwards laughing, squatted on the ground with his abdomen touched, and couldn't stand up for a long time.

Qiao Zhengyu was frightened by her, and he was angry, and snorted: "I said when you came in, and you didn't tell others, you are trying to scare me to death." I couldn't help the cold sweat on my forehead, and I hurriedly reached out to wipe it off.

Lingque'er seemed to be wronged, got up and said, "How can you blame me for this, in fact, I have already come in." I saw that you kept circling around the bronze mirror, and I thought you had found some important clues, so it was inconvenient to disturb you. ”

"This 。。。。。。 Qiao Zhengyu was stunned for a moment, and smirked: "Oh, that's because I blamed you, it's my fault, it's okay." ”

Although he said this, he was ashamed in his heart, and when he thought of the way he looked in the mirror just now, he couldn't help but be embarrassed, and he wanted to find a hole to get into.

The sparrow didn't care, but squatted on the ground, dipped her finger in a little rouge, and put it next to her nose and sniffed it.

"Brother Qiao, this rouge has a peculiar fragrance, not like ordinary rouge, I don't know if you have noticed?"

"Oh, I don't have much research on rouge, can it be that the girl has found something?" Qiao Zhengyu saw that her face was serious, and he also squatted down, looking at the rouge all over the ground and said.

Lingque said: "The general rouge is made of 'red and blue' petals, and its aroma is fragrant and the taste is relatively plain. And these rouges on the ground have a strong taste, which is different from ordinary rouge. If I'm not mistaken, this rouge has some spices from the Western Regions added to it, so it makes the aroma peculiar. ”

Qiao Zhengyu listened disapprovingly, and said: "That's normal, the money clerk has a lot of money, there is nothing to do, and the things used by his wife must be more valuable than ordinary people." This rouge is a good example, but what does it have to do with the case?"

Lingqueer smiled: "Yes, this seems to be a matter of the bull's head and the horse's mouth, but in fact it is closely related. Brother Qiao, come and see, what's wrong with that ground?" he stretched out his hand and pointed to one place.

Qiao Zhengyu looked at it, and saw a few footprints on the ground, and suddenly realized: "Oh, I know, you mean that when the murderer committed the murder, he left these rouge powder under his feet." As long as we can find someone with this rouge powder under their feet, we can catch the murderer. ”

Dancing and rejoicing, but only a moment later,

Chou Yun hung on his face again, shook his head and said: "No, no, your idea seems feasible on the surface, but in fact it doesn't work." Don't say whether these footprints are the murderer's, even if they are, you can't ask everyone to raise their feet for you to check, what's the difference between this and looking for a needle in a haystack?"

Lingque'er slammed his head and said, "Stupid, who wants you to look at the soles of other people's feet, I have repeatedly emphasized the smell, don't you understand the meaning of this?"

Qiao Zhengyu was knocked by her like this, and suddenly realized, nodded and said, "Well, how did I forget this." This aroma is peculiar, different from other rouge tastes, since the murderer has rouge on the soles of his feet, the smell can't run away. Look at my head, it's getting worse and worse. Touching his head, he smirked.

Lingque smiled slightly, took out a small bottle from her bosom, and twisted some rouge powder on the ground with her fingers and put it into the bottle.

Qiao Zhengyu only felt strange, and said: "What are you doing, do you also like this rouge, so put some back and use it?" If that's the case, I don't think it's necessary, it's a big deal I'll help you buy a box, although it's a little expensive, but I can still afford it." ”

But the sparrow glared at him, and did not answer, and waited until the bottle was half filled, and then got up and stood up.

"Brother Qiao, you said it yourself, then I'll wait for you to give it to me. However, this half bottle is still kept, and when you buy it, it won't be too late for me to throw it away. After saying that, he walked away with a smile.

Qiao Zhengyu wondered: "What's wrong with this girl, how mysterious is she today, and I don't know what the hell is going on." He shook his head and followed out of the curtain.

The two walked along the path towards the backyard, and after a while, they were already in the backyard.

At this time, there were officials in the backyard constantly walking back and forth to check, and the body outside the Qian Yuan had long since disappeared, obviously being carried outside the house.

The two of them came to the pool where the body was found last night and crouched on the ground to take a closer look. In the place where the corpse was originally parked, there was a wild grass growing wildly, perhaps because it had been pressed by the corpse for too long, and a large piece of low pressure had fallen down.

The two of them looked carefully for a long time, but found nothing.

"It doesn't seem like there's any clue here, so let's not waste time and look elsewhere. Qiao Zhengyu got up and clapped his hands, shook his head and sighed.

"Hmm. The sparrow got up and was about to leave.

The moment he turned around, he felt a bright light flash in front of him, and he suddenly stopped. After a careful search of the neighborhood for a while, he picked up something from the grass.

"Brother Qiao, what do you think this is?" With the call of the spirit sparrow, Qiao Zhengyu turned his head to look, but saw that he was holding a metal-like thing in his hand, shining in the sun.

"What is this, it seems to be a piece of gold?" stepped forward to look at it carefully, and shook his head again: "I don't know, this looks like a piece of mahjong, but it is thinner than mahjong." Judging from the color and production technology, this thing should be more precious. ”

"Well, there is a 'money' written on it, which should be a personal belongings of the money clerk. It may be that when Qian Yuan was chased by the murderer, he was hit by gravity, so he left this thing in the grass. The sparrow looked at the grass under her feet, nodded and said, "You see that these weeds are so dense and messy, and it is difficult to find such a valuable thing falling in them, especially when it is still night." ”
