Chapter 108: Elm Demon Murder Case XII
Steward Pang asked Mu Yirong, what will happen to Xiao Tao's body?
Mu Yirong said that this case was a homicide case nine times out of ten, and after a while, the county lieutenant of Mu Juezhi would bring his servants to carry the body to the yamen next door for an autopsy.
Steward Pang glanced at Xiao Tao and said that he was a poor child, and asked Mu Yirong and others to find out the cause of death for him, so that he could be buried as soon as possible.
Mu Yirong nodded, saying that he would never let innocent people be wronged and hated Jiuquan.
Steward Pang bent down to salute Mu Yirong to express his gratitude, and then was supported by someone, like a withered old wolf that had lost all his hair and had been driven out of the wolf pack in old age.
The green swordsman Han Xiangzi stood beside Mu Yirong, looking at the back of Steward Pang who was leaving with his slumped back: "Brother Yirong, don't you think it's strange?"
Mu Yirong looked at Steward Pang's lonely footsteps: "He is too calm. ”
That is, he and the maidservant who died in the firewood room were witnesses. But he didn't seem to be worried that he might be killed too, what does that mean?"
It shows that Steward Pang may be old and frail and has a short life, so he puts life and death aside; Or, he knew the murderer and subconsciously felt that the other party would not kill him.
Seocho leaned against the door, looking at the two slender figures of Mu Yirong and the green swordsman Han Xiangzi, one black and one white, and pondered as he learned, how to call this pair of young talents?
A good couple?
A couple?
Or is it a random mandarin duck spectrum?
Mu Yirong and Qing Swordsman Han Xiangzi, who were standing side by side, both felt a hot feeling in the back of their heads, and they all turned to look at Seocho.
"What are you thinking?"
As soon as the green swordsman Han Xiangzi asked with a smile, Mu Yirong, who saw some clues from Ruicho's eyes, suddenly felt bad in his heart, and hurriedly stopped him: "Don't say anything." ”
"I was thinking, you two are a good match. ”
When the green swordsman Han Xiangzi heard Ruicao's words, his expression froze, and Mu Yirong was so angry that he smoked: "This word is not used in this kind of place!"
Mu Juezhi, who got the news, came to collect the corpse with the yamen servant, and the green swordsman Han Xiangzi looked at Mu Juezhi, who was busy commanding, and said that he was killed, and the dignified county order was not present, was the butt too heavy to leave the position, or did he feel that the death of a maidservant girl was insignificant, and it was not worth his county order to be present in person?
Mu Juezhi invited Qi County Commander to come with him, but Qi Kecheng refused, saying that Liu's house was his brother-in-law's house, and he had to avoid suspicion. Also, he knew that Mu Yirong and the others were in Liu's Mansion, and he believed that if the Dali Temple squire personally investigated, it would be a hundred times stronger than the county order.
The green swordsman Han Xiangzi smiled and said with a smile, Qi Kecheng said it nicely, it was not that he was cheating and playing tricks, and he didn't want to take over.
After Mu Juezhi said that Liu Jingshan had an accident, Qi Kecheng, who was a brother-in-law, did not visit him once. Pick yourself clean, I don't know if you are too smart, don't want to wade into troubled waters, or be a thief?
Mu Yirong said that in this world, there is no impermeable wall, and if you do something bad, sooner or later you will show your feet. Let Mu Juezhi ignore Qi Kecheng and send someone to protect Steward Pang first, so that he will not be like a little peach and encounter accidents.
By the way, you should also keep an eye on him, see what he is doing, who he is associating with, and what he is saying to others?
When Mu Juezhi heard that he was going to keep an eye on Steward Pang, he looked puzzled: "Uncle Cousin is suspicious of Steward Pang?"
"Whether he had anything to do with the person who attacked County Lieutenant Liu or killed Xiao Tao, he must have hidden something. ”
Mu Juezhi nodded, and then informed Mu Yirong of the news that the people he had sent out in the past two days to inquire about the news.
Mu Yirong began to pinch his chin again and fall into deep thought, this time, the big net woven in his mind seemed to have caught a lot of things.
It's just that if the real prey falls into the net, he can close the net.
Mu Juezhi couldn't help but be a little worried when he saw Mu Yirong looking like he had the bottom in his heart: "Tang Clan, if the murderer dares to kill one person, he will dare to kill the second one, you live here, you must be more careful." ”
Mu Yirong pointed to Ruicao and Qing Swordsman Han Xiangzi with both hands on the left and right: "With the two of them, you don't have to worry about my safety." ”
The green swordsman Han Xiangzi nodded with a smile: "Brother Yirong's safety is wrapped up in me." ”
Seocho squinted at the green swordsman Han Xiangzi: "Are you challenging me?"
The green swordsman Han Xiangzi didn't know why: "This matter, where to start?"
"You said you want to protect my observer, don't you mean to rob me of the mountain?"
Mu Yirong also squinted at Ruicao: "Observation object?"
Seocho nodded: "I observe the object of study. ”
Mu Yirong heard that Seocho had been learning from him, and suddenly felt that his body was emitting the light of Seocho's life leading lamp, and the corners of his mouth suddenly curved.
The green swordsman Han Xiangzi smiled and said to Seocho that he was not a mountain bandit, what were you doing robbing other people's mountains.
However, he recommended himself, saying that he has a lot of experience in the rivers and lakes, and he can also be an observation object for Seocho, becoming a bright light that illuminates the path of Seocho's life.
The small flame under Mu Yirong's eyes seemed to be blown by the wind, and he smiled at the green swordsman Han Xiangzi and said, "If you want to guide her forward, I'm afraid it will become a Kong Ming lantern." ”
The green swordsman Han Xiangzi smiled and said that Mu Yirong couldn't help but look down on him too much, and the smile on Mu Yirong's face was even worse: "When you get along with her for a long time, you will know that what I said is not wrong." ”
When the green swordsman Han Xiangzi discovers that Seocho has a different brain circuit from ordinary people in the future, and the choking and life-threatening speaking style, he will definitely want to go back to the day when he didn't know Seocho before!
Mu Juezhi took the people of the county government to transport Xiao Tao's body back to the county government for autopsy.
Mu Yirong took Ruicao and Han Xiangzi, the green swordsman who automatically followed the two, to Xiao Tao's room to check.
Xiao Tao lived in the same room with several maidservants, and the little maids with flowers and bones, seeing the handsome Mu Yirong and the green swordsman Han Xiangzi, they were all shy and timid, and their faces were as red as apples.
But after a while, these little maids with flowers and bones turned into butterfly bees one by one, circling around the two dogtail grasses, Mu Yirong and the green swordsman Han Xiangzi.
However, there is a beautiful maidservant, but she is different from others, and when she saw the green swordsman Han Xiangzi, she immediately rolled her eyes.
It was in the firewood room before, that the servant girl who was angry with the green swordsman Han Xiangzi for letting Mrs. Liu see the corpse, which frightened Mrs. Liu and glared at the green swordsman Han Xiangzi viciously, her name was Falling Jade, who was waiting by Mrs. Liu's side, and she was a first-class girl in this house.
Mu Yirong asked Shenyu and the others to mourn, and then asked Xiao Tao what was abnormal in the past few days?
These maids get along very well with Xiao Tao on weekdays, and when they heard Mu Yirong mention Xiao Tao's tragic death, they all looked sad.
Falling Yu wiped the moist corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, said that Xiao Tao has nothing abnormal recently, and then asked Mu Yirong, the murderer of Xiao Tao, but the monster who attacked their master?
The eyes of the maids of the Liu Mansion all fell on Mu Yirong's body, Mu Yirong's case is under investigation, and I hope they can actively cooperate with the questioning and find the murderer of Xiao Tao as soon as possible.
Falling Yu and the others nodded, and Mu Yirong asked Falling Jade and the others to tell them, what kind of person is Xiao Tao, and do they still have relatives in the house?
Xiao Tao was sold into the house the year before last, and she has no family in the house, and she is not a native of Lintong County.
Also, Xiao Tao is usually relatively timid, and occasionally when she sees her own shadow, she will scream and jump in fright, shouting that there is a ghost.
Mu Yirong nodded, and asked how many people knew that Xiao Tao could have a grudge with others on weekdays?
The people of Shenyu glanced at each other, and then they all shook their heads in unison, Dao Xiaotao was timid and introverted, and in the two or three years since he entered the house, he had never had a quarrel with anyone.
When talking to people, he also likes to keep his head down, and is punished and abused by his master, but he doesn't dare to speak out, and he has never said bad things about others behind his back. is also cautious in doing things, where will a timid person like her grudge against others.
Mu Yirong glanced around at several handmaidens and smiled slightly: "Look at a few girls, they are all smart-handed, why did Steward Pang pick a handmaid like Xiao Tao with a stuffy gourd-like temperament, and go with him to deliver food to County Lieutenant Liu." ”
Several maidservants were very praised by Mu Yirong's secret poke, and rushed to answer Mu Yirong's question, saying that their master had been unhappy recently, and his temper had become irritable and difficult to serve. Steward Pang felt that Xiao Tao was quiet and most suitable for taking care of the master's daily life.
Mu Yirong remembered the two maids who were now in charge of taking care of the comatose Liu Jingshan, and asked them what their temperament was, and why they were selected to take care of the comatose Liu Jingshan?
