Chapter 116: Murder?

This kid hasn't eaten enough?

He was slightly surprised, but saw the white cat who had been staying on the top of the cabinet jumped down and sat down on Yan Saburo's table, waiting for him to tear off the chicken and feed it to her piece by piece.

The gesture was incredibly calm.

"Your cat, eat this?"

Yan Saburo snorted: "The mouth is very picky, and I don't eat anything else." ”

"When you are hungry for two meals, you eat everything. Steward Xu snorted, "It's all because you're spoiled." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the white cat suddenly turn his head and glance at him.

Stared at by the pair of yin and yang eyes, Steward Xu shuddered, and secretly said that this cat should not be able to understand human words? There are monsters in the world.

"I didn't raise it before. Yan Saburo sighed secretly, otherwise he wouldn't be this character.

When Yan Saburo was about to get off work, the handlebar-type Dashun came. He drove a carriage from Yuncheng to Liupei this time, and Mushi broke down halfway through. He did emergency treatment, and when he arrived in Liupei, he took it to renovate and came over today for reimbursement. The so-called jurisdiction, that is, a dowel, is used to pass through the shaft end to fix the wooden wheel.

This kind of maintenance miscellaneous is just from Yan Saburo. Da Shun walked in front of Yan Saburo with a smile and patted him on the shoulder very familiarly: "San Lang, did you sleep well last night?"

"Okay, nothing out of the ordinary. ”

The smile on the corner of Da Shun's mouth suddenly became a little unnatural: "Abnormal, what does this mean?"

Yan Saburo looked him directly into the eyes: "The eldest lady who lives nearby said that what you rented to me was a murderous mansion." ”

Da Shun's eyes widened: "Those stupid women talk nonsense......"

Before he could really get angry, Yan Saburo had already said quickly: "What is the name of the person who died?" Hmm, Liu Yizhao?"

Saying the name of the deceased shows that he knows it.

Da Shun's anger was immediately suppressed, but his face was very ugly. After all, this is the account office of the Hengxi Chamber of Commerce, and he didn't expect Yan Saburo to poke the matter out here.

The other bookkeepers slowed down in their work, and pricked up their ears to eavesdrop, when he didn't notice?

Da Shun glanced at the others and lowered his voice: "San Lang, don't listen to those long-tongued women babbling. There hasn't been a murder in my nephew's small courtyard!"

"Before I moved in, the walls were freshly painted. At that time, he still felt that the landlord was exquisite, and it turned out that he wanted to cover up the bad luck and blood stains.

Da Shun exhaled, knowing that this matter had to be explained: "My nephew's family is unlucky, and there is such a matter. But Liu Yizhao really died of illness himself, and the servants sent by the government all said so, not that he was murdered! He was a stranger, and before he rented the house, how did we know that he was sick?"

Yan Saburo didn't reply, only raised his eyebrows to look at him.

Da Shun then remembered that the person in front of him was also a foreigner, and before renting his nephew's yard, they didn't know if he was sick.

"I don't usually speak, don't take it to heart. He laughed dryly and rubbed his hands, "As for the courtyard...... "People already know that eighty percent of them want to quit the rent, and he is reluctant."

"I'll take care of the yard. Yan Saburo interrupted him, "But the rent has to be reduced by another dollar." "You'll have to pay a price for trying to fool him. Besides, if you can save, you will save.

"Ah...... Okay, okay. Dashun could only agree.

Yan Saburo smiled at him, and then with a big stroke of his pen, he asked him to go to Steward Xu to receive the money for repairing the jurisdiction.

The handlebar type scratched his head and left, not daring to look at Yan Saburo. He didn't do it properly.

Last night, Yan Saburo took a medicinal bath and went to bed early. However, Chitose can move within 30 zhang (100 meters) around the small courtyard, and her ears and eyes are really sensitive, so it is easy to hear the gossip of the people around her.

In addition to all the trivial things that happened to Liu Pei, the topic that was served to the dinner table in several houses last night was "The murderous house of the Sun family that has died has been rented out again".

This is the original words of a mother-in-law, followed by the next sentence: "Rented to a boy from other places, it is said that he works as a handyman at the Hengxi Chamber of Commerce." This is bullying children without knowing it, creating evil!"

Chitose was interested at that time. In fact, the house has lived for generations, which family has never died? In the house, the people who died in it are not considered murderous houses, only those who died violently or horizontally, and everyone is afraid of evil ghosts, or there are still disgusting things left there, so this is named after the murderous house.

She floated over to listen to it with peace of mind, and vaguely pieced together a rough idea from the gossip of each family.

It turned out that half a year ago, in the side courtyard of the Sun family, the tenant was also a foreigner. He is short, doesn't talk much, doesn't often show up in front of people, and doesn't deal with his neighbors.

Liupei, like Yicheng, was a small place, with strangers staying in it, and the news spread all over the neighborhood within a few days.

However, before the neighbors could find out more information, the man suddenly died.

He was living alone in a foreign land, and it was so cold that no one noticed it at first. Later, it was the neighbor's dog who smelled the smell and barked incessantly, and the body was found, and by that time there was already yellow water flowing all over the ground. was originally a thin and thin person, but in the end he was swollen with a big waist and a round waist.

The government immediately sent a servant to come, and the autopsy showed that he had died of tuberculosis, and the stains around the body were blood he coughed up.

In the end, it was the Hengxi Chamber of Commerce that paid for him to be buried, because this person was a short-term guest of the Chamber of Commerce, and he came to Liupei County to live for a few months to do things for the Chamber of Commerce, but he did not expect to die of illness.

The so-called short-term customers are the foreign employees of the Chamber of Commerce, who are generally specially hired for special matters and terminate the contract after the completion of the contract, unlike Steward Xu and Yan Saburo who have been working in the Chamber of Commerce for a long time to get a salary.

After all, he was a stranger with no roots, and the turmoil passed quickly. However, while the surrounding residents are unlucky, they are also suspicious.

Tuberculosis is a chronic disease, and if the person dies of the disease, then he should have a terrible cough for those days before he dies. It is normal for tuberculosis patients to cough all night until dawn, and the walls of the houses are thin, how can the neighbors not hear them?

However, the man's yard was always quiet, and only on the night of his death, it was as if a neighbor had heard him cough a few times, very tightly, very low, and then there was no more.

The most terrifying thing is that after beating this stranger to death, there can still be strange noises in the house, as if someone is walking around. Two bricks were broken in the courtyard, and neighbors could sometimes hear the clicking of bricks and the movement of objects being removed. There was a plasterer living nearby, and he swore that it was the sound of a wall chiseling!

The man of the Sun family thought that he had been robbed, and he kept watch in the courtyard for two days, so there was no such movement in the future.

said that it was a murderous house, but it was actually an exaggeration, but the news spread in the market, adding fuel and vinegar, and in the end, it was murderous if it was not fierce. Chitose told Yan Saburo the news in the morning, and the latter passed it on to Da Shun and took the opportunity to suppress a little money.
