Sinking in the west, under the tall buildings of Guanyuan Pavilion, this small courtyard has been dyed with a trace of gloom.

And Jin Lan, who was still hiding behind her sister, was like a different person the moment she touched Xu Chang, her eyes were misty, and she leaned towards him along Xu Chang's arm, and her mouth was like an orchid.

"Don't, Jinlan, it's not ...... here" Xu Chang seemed to want to break free from her restraints, but Jinlan leaned closer to him instead.

"But I can't bear it anymore......" Jin Lan seemed to be desperately longing for something from him.

Faced with this suddenly charming scene, An Qing looked away, and the wind and waves under her eyes were rarely calm.

This successive huge shocks have made her give up thinking, and all signs show that as long as you are still in this Ning Mansion, it is not a good thing to act with your brain.

As soon as you look away, you can't avoid seeing the corpse lying reclining in the middle of the courtyard. An Qing glanced at it twice and didn't dare to look at it again, so she simply left the pair of lingering wild mandarin ducks and hurriedly walked back to the front yard.

Back in the main hall, Ning Dantong was holding the qin, standing in a daze, and when he saw An Qing coming, he couldn't help but sigh and retreated two steps back.

As soon as he retreated, An Qing saw the woman who was leaning on the beauty behind him.

The woman looked extremely young, she seemed to be only a few years older than An Qing, her figure was slender and lovely, and her snow-white face was even more full and delicate. She was dressed in a pink blouse, reclining on the beauty leaning and flipping through the book, looking lazy and tired.

Page after page, her gaze only stayed on those pages for three or five breaths, and then turned to the next page, ignoring the slightly messy cloud temples, a pair of peach blossom eyes were only eyes but not godless, and her eyebrows were slightly curved.

An Qing once heard her father say that people with such eyebrows and eyes are born ruthless.

Although it is just a joke from the villagers, An Guangmao just said it casually, and it was just an interesting anecdote. But at this time, An Qing was shocked to find that this statement was so appropriate for this woman.

Although she hadn't looked carefully in the main hall before, the posture of flipping through the script and Ning Dantong's performance in front of this person conclusively explained her identity.

She is the unique lady of the main house in Ning Mansion.

After being relatively speechless with An Qing for a while, Ning Dantong may also feel embarrassed, and turned to the lady who was lying on the beauty leaning and flipping through the book, and muttered, "Little lady......"

The woman was still lazily flipping through the book, and she didn't even bother to pay attention to him. An Qing watched from the sidelines, and also felt very embarrassed.

After all, he accompanied Xu Chang to the scene, and if he wanted to learn from Zhao Wu'an to solve the case, he was not able to solve the case after all, and a lot of time was still consumed, seeing that it was getting late, An Qing hurriedly glanced at the water leak in the house, wanting to see what time it was.

The water leak was set at the base of the wall of the hall, and the whole hall was extremely silent in front of her, and no one cared about her, An Qing quietly walked to the side of the water leak and lowered her head to look.

Unfortunately, the water in the spill seems to have long since dried up, and no one has continued it. She glanced down in disappointment and saw a large patch of wetness around the drain.

"This Ning Mansion is really strange......" An Qing stopped halfway through her muttering, because she suddenly realized that the word "strange" alone was no longer enough to describe the situation in this mansion.

If I had to use one word to describe it, it would be weird.

An Qing was thinking like this, when a sound of wood cracking suddenly came from behind her.

She was startled, and when she looked back, she found that Ning Dantong had already thrown his cherished piano on the ground and knelt down in front of the woman in pink.

The guqin broke from the middle, split into two and lay on the ground, and three strings were broken.

Dantong knew that he had not returned to the province once in the past many years, which made the little lady extremely worried, which was Dantong's fault. Ning Dantong said in a deep voice, "But now that my brother and father are dead, if the little lady is unwilling to take care of Dantong, how can Dantong bear the burden of the head of the Ning Mansion?"

The woman pressed her eyebrows with her hand, frowned, and said, "Go by yourself, don't bother me, I don't want to move." ”

Ning Dantong's forehead was throbbing, he gritted his teeth fiercely, his chest rose and fell violently, obviously really angry.

But after a while, he calmed down and bowed his head and said, "If Xiao Niang can hand over the key to Guanyuan Pavilion to Dan Tong, Dan Tong promises not to bother Xiao Niang again." Not only that, but Dan Tong is also obliged to take care of his children and accompany him. ”

The woman said impatiently: "I know, I know, you go, the key is in my house." ”

Ning Dantong immediately stood up happily, ignoring the broken guqin on the ground, and walked into the inner room.

When he entered the house, he seemed to notice An Qing standing next to the water leak, and said unexpectedly: "Haven't you left yet? If you need anything, go find Guixi or Jinlan, don't bother my little lady." ”

An Qing was really a little speechless. If the people outside the door hadn't crowded like that, she would have wanted to leave early!

Ning Dantong turned his head and glanced at the woman lying on the beauty's lean.

"My little mother, at the age of flowers, was occupied by my father, and after getting tired of playing, she threw herself into the cold, and a child who died for him died young...... She wanted to kill my dad, and I wasn't surprised at all. ”

An Qing was stunned for a moment, and said in shock: "You said she killed your father?"

"I didn't say that. Ning Dantong glared at her, turned around and entered the house.

Not long after Ning Dantong rummaged in the house, there was a commotion in the front yard. An Qing followed the sound and walked out and met a large group of people.

Led by Xu Chang and an old man with a portable tool, standing behind them was a tall and tall catcher, followed by a large group of villagers watching the excitement.

Catch Kuai's face was solemn, and when he saw An Qing, he showed a piece of paper.

"There is another murder case in Duxiu Village, which is very important, and the people involved, no matter how big or small, will be recorded. Offended!"

After saying that, he took out the red clay from his arms and asked An Qing to draw it.

Xu Chang hurriedly stopped: "She is a foreigner, and she is not familiar with the people of Ning Mansion!"

Unexpectedly, the catch was fast and his face turned pale: "Hmph, outsiders just have to guard against it." Duxiu Village has been peaceful for too long, don't think that people are kind outside. ”

After that, I couldn't help but say, but I still grabbed An Qing and drew a charge.

The next thing went smoothly beyond An Qing's expectations.

It is said that he worked in the capital for a period of time, and he was familiar with all kinds of methods, and he brought several people in the Ning Mansion to the main courtyard in a short time, and drew a line of escorts to interrogate one by one.

When Jin Lan was brought out by Xu Chang from an unknown corner, she was disheveled, full of peach blossoms, and she didn't know what she was doing before.

The people in the village all had a clear look on their faces, and An Qing turned her head with a blushing face.

The first person to be tried was Xu Chang, who was a housekeeper. According to him, when he went out around noon today, the old man had just said goodbye to him and was going to the top of Guanyuan Pavilion to enjoy the scenery and write. Since Ning Longhai also has such a Yaxing on weekdays, Xu Chang didn't feel strange, and hurriedly cleaned up his home, and planned to go out to the market to buy some things. As soon as he went out, he met An Qing and Xia Lian, who were facing each other.

"What are you going to buy?" said Catch quickly and solemnly spread out the paper, holding the brush in his hand, and asked in detail.

"Sauce vinegar, as well as the master's fire ink, a notebook for Mrs. Xu Chang did not pause.

"Did you buy them all?"

"I bought it, because I met the young master, so I talked all the way, but I walked a little more. When you go back, it should be...... Before and after three quarters. ”

Quickly wrote it down, and then signaled to him that it was okay, turned to Ning Dantong and asked: "You are the young master of Ning Mansion, it seems that you haven't been home for many years, right?"

"Yes. Ning Dantong nodded and said, "I'm ashamed, I actually stayed at the inn at the head of the village three days ago, but I have been living in seclusion, and I didn't go out to buy some things until today." ”

"Since you're back, why don't you go back to Ningfu?"

"I'm scared of homesickness, and besides, I heard the news of my brother's death, and I was hesitant to disturb my family for a while. ”

Contrary to the embarrassment in the hall, Ning Dantong seemed to have calmed down at this time, and he was able to answer the questions of the catcher.

"But this afternoon, I happened to meet Xu Chang, so I couldn't hide it, so I could only come back with him. ”

There didn't seem to be any problem with this answer, and he nodded quickly, and turned to look at the hostess of the Ning Mansion, Pang Li.

"Madame Pang, excuse me, I want to ask you some questions. Caught quickly re-dipped in ink, quite a scholarly look, "Have you been in the room all day?"

"yes, I haven't been out. Pang Li propped his forehead, looking like he was about to fall asleep.

An Qing has finally met someone who is more interested in interrogation than Zhao Wu'an in her life.

Caught up and pondered for a moment, "And when was the last time you saw your husband?"

"I don't know when I saw him, I don't think I saw it today, but I heard him coughing outside at noon, and it woke me up. That voice must have been him. Pang Li said lazily.

Catch Kuai's face moved: "Why are you so sure?"

"Yes, yes. Only someone as fat as him can make that pig-like sound. ”

Caught up in silence for a moment, and asked, "When was that, can you be specific?"

Pang Li blinked his eyes and recalled: "It's not timely." ”

"Are you sure?" asked the catcher.

"Sure, I just had a good look at the water leak at that time, and I could see it from my room. Pang Li said and yawned again, "I don't understand other things." After being woken up by him, he slept for a while, and when he woke up, he realized that this guy had gone to see King Yama. ”

Even in the face of the hunt, Pang Li did not show a trace of grief or regret, as if the dead fat man in the backyard had nothing to do with her.

The weather-beaten Uncle Catcher was obviously also frightened, and his hand holding the pen shook inadvertently, leaving a drop of ink on the white paper.

"Shouldn't you be your husband's original match?" asked the catcher.

"Yes, I'm his third wife, and I'm only twenty-six this year. Pang Li pressed a verdant jade finger against his chin, his eyes were like silk, "What, it's interesting to me?"

Shaking his head helplessly, he was forced to abandon the interrogation and move on to his next target.

Jin Lan's eyes were still obsessed, as if she had had a spring and autumn dream and hadn't woken up yet, and her answer seemed ambiguous. Fortunately, she spends most of the day with her sister, and her confession is not much different from that of Guixi.

By the time the capture was almost finished, the sun had sunk over the hill and it was already dark. Most of the villagers who were watching the excitement around also dispersed. Although Ningfu is big, after all, it is only a family in Duxiu Village, these villagers have nothing to do, and it is harmless to watch the excitement, but they are unwilling to delay their meals.

Catch Kuai also put away a pile of files and stood up, "Without further ado, now I'll go to the scene to have a look." ”

After saying that, he threw a look at Xu Chang to ask for directions, Xu Chang nodded knowingly, and led him to the backyard.

Seeing that everyone had dispersed and vacated the road that had been impassable before, An Qing also planned to wave goodbye. Anyway, she is not Zhao Wu'an, staying here is just adding to the trouble.

However, before she could say goodbye, she turned her head and stopped her.

"You're a foreigner, so you can't leave yet. Catch said coldly.

An Qing was dumbfounded: "Why is this?"

He coughed twice, and his eyes became sharp.

"Ningfu, has always been a well-known place of harmony, the family lives together, and there has been no quarrel for many years, but today there was a sudden murder, what is the reason, don't you understand it in your heart?"

Seeing An Qing's stunned face, he said bluntly: "I doubt you, so you can't leave yet." ”

An Qing couldn't wait for a sword Luo Shenfu to split this guy in half.

Is there a normal person in this twilight village?!
