At sunset, Zhao Abao and his party returned to Zhao's mansion, and as soon as they arrived at the door, a family member guarding the door stepped forward and said, "Miss, Madame asked you to come back and look for her in the garden." ”

"My mother knows I'm out. Hearing this, Zhao Abao's face changed slightly, she went out secretly this time, busy with her mother, her eyes moved, and said, "I know, Xiaorong, let's go over." ”

Since the matter of sneaking out has been known by his mother, there is no need to hide it, Zhao Abao didn't have much fear in his heart, and called Xiao Rong next to him and walked towards the house, Xiao Rong next to him had a bitter face, this kind of sneaking out Miss will definitely have nothing to do, but these of them who are subordinates must be scolded no matter what.

"Madam, Miss is back" Zhao's mansion, in the back garden, a maid walked in front and reported to Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Zhao was dressed as a noblewoman in a gorgeous robe, with a golden fork on her head, and her face was sitting in the pavilion, making a majestic appearance, and when she heard the maid's report, she didn't answer, and she didn't raise her head, and the maid didn't dare to say anything when she saw this, and stood aside after speaking.

At this time, Zhao Abao and Xiao Rong also happened to come from the path in the garden, and just saw this scene, when she saw her mother's cold color, her face changed slightly, but her face was quickly replaced with a smiling face, and Xiao Rong next to her was heartbroken when she saw this.

"Mother!"

Zhao Abao walked over with a smile and called out obediently, hoping to dissipate his mother's breath and calm people, but obviously, this time Mrs. Zhao's anger would not be so easy to dissipate, just glanced at Zhao Abao, and looked at Xiao Rong with a somewhat gloomy gaze, only Xiao Rong's heart tightened.

"Kneel!" Looking at Xiao Rong, Mrs. Zhao scolded directly, Xiao Rong saw that Mrs. Zhao's face was gloomy and moved, where did she dare to resist, and when she heard the words, she directly bent her knees and knelt on the ground: "Poof!"

"Mother" Zhao Abao's face changed when she saw this, glanced at Xiao Rong who was kneeling on the ground, and was about to speak, but Mrs. Zhao didn't mean to look at her at all, and asked directly at Xiao Rong, "Do you know it's wrong?"

"I knew that it was wrong, it was Xiaorong who didn't take a good look at Miss, and asked Mrs. to punish her. ”

Xiao Rong admitted her mistake in a low voice, although Zhao Abao asked to go out of this matter herself, and she dissuaded her many times, but at this time, as a subordinate, between the master and the servant, how can there be the fault of the master, even if there is a big mistake, it is also a servant.

Seeing that Xiaorong took the initiative to admit her mistake, Mrs. Zhao's face was a little better, and she also knew that this going out must also be Zhao Abao's own attention, the reason why this is so is that on the one hand, she is angry and bad to vent on her daughter, and on the other hand, she is also doing it for Zhao Abao.

"Mother, don't blame Xiao Rong, this is all Ah Bao's own desire to go out, don't blame Xiao Rong. ”

Zhao Abao saw that his mother was really angry this time, and seemed to punish Xiaorong, so he felt a little apologetic and couldn't bear it, so he quickly stood up and spoke.

"Hmph, as a maid, not being able to look at the young lady is a sin in itself. ”

Mrs. Zhao snorted coldly, seeing Zhao Abao so angry, the so-called deep love, the responsibility, since Zhao Changfeng left, she has been cautious, for fear that something will happen to Zhao Abao, this time Zhao Abao actually ran out of the house secretly without her, in case something happens, how can she not be in a hurry, especially in the past few days, Chen County has died five young and beautiful girls in a row, how can she not be afraid.

"Mother, Bao knows that it's wrong, it's all Bao's bad, which makes my mother worried. ”

Zhao Abao was smart, seeing that his mother was like this, he also understood a little, and immediately took the initiative to kneel in front of Mrs. Zhao to admit his mistake, Mrs. Zhao is also a soft-hearted person, and she is even more spoiled by Zhao Abao, seeing Zhao Abao like this, she immediately couldn't get angry, and glanced at Zhao Abao and Xiaorong who were kneeling in front of her.

"Hey, that's it, forget it this time, let's get up. ”

With a wave of her hand, Mrs. Zhao sighed lightly, sighing in her heart, she always couldn't harden her heart for her daughter.

"Thank you, mother, mother's best. Zhao Abao's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and he quickly stood up and glanced at Xiao Rong behind him, and Xiao Rong quickly said, "Thank you, madam." After saying that, he stood aside.

Mrs. Zhao looked at the master and the servant, and naturally saw the small movements of the two, but she was helpless, so she had to sigh again.

"Mother, Ah Bao knows that he is wrong, he will never do it again, don't be angry with Ah Bao, okay. ”

Seeing this, Zhao Abao knew that his mother was also worried about himself, so he couldn't help feeling guilty and admitted his mistake.

"Ah Bao, it's not your mother who wants to take care of you, if you want to go out for a walk in normal times, your mother won't talk about you, but now, the situation is different, your father is not at home, just our orphans and widows, my mother has to be careful, Chai Shaoan is just a trivial matter, what my mother is really worried about is the murder of these days. ”

Mrs. Zhao opened her mouth and expressed the biggest uneasiness in her heart, Chai Shaoan is fine, at least he is in Chen County, and he likes Zhao Abao, at least he will not do anything too much, what really worries her is that the serial murder cases that have appeared in Chen County in the past few days have killed five people in a row, and the deceased are all young and beautiful women, and when she thinks of Zhao Abao's appearance, she can't help but be afraid.

Hearing his mother's words, Zhao Abao was also shocked, only then did he understand why his mother was so angry, and a trace of remorse rose in his heart, and now he felt that today's trip was indeed reckless, and he couldn't help but bow his head and admit his mistake.

"Mother, it's Ah Bao who has thought about it. ”

"That's it, since you're back, forget it, no one dares to come to the house to be presumptuous, you go down and rest first." "Yes!"

Mrs. Zhao waved her hand, and Ah Bao also said goodbye to his mother and left the yard with a smile, and after Zhao Ah Bao left, Mrs. Zhao called the housekeeper.

"Butler, tell me to go down and let the people in the house be clever tonight, especially the young lady's side, and send more people. ”

"Madame is worried?" the butler was shocked when he heard this.

"Hopefully, I'm overthinking. Mrs. Zhao rubbed her eyebrows: "But for some reason, my heart is always unsteady today." ”

"It must be Madame, you care too much about Miss, the master is not here, Madame is happy. The butler said.

Mrs. Zhao waved her hand when she heard this.

"Go down, do as I say, there must not be any mistakes in Miss tonight, not only tonight, but also in the future, and arrange more manpower on Miss every night in the future, until the murderer of this murder is caught." ”

"Yes!"

When the butler heard this, he also responded, and let him step back.

......................................

At the same time, on the other side, Yamen, Zhixian Li Younian, Master Qian Youchang, and Sun Jin, the head catcher, the three top people in the Chen County Government gathered together, but they were all worried, and the impact of the successive murders in the past few days was too great and too bad, and if they were not dealt with quickly, it would have a huge impact on their reputation.

"Is there any progress?" asked Li Younian, sitting on a chair and looking at Sun Jin with one hand on his temple.

The latter shook his head.

"No, according to some eyewitnesses, these deceased people had been in contact with a handsome and strange man in front of them, but in the past few days, I have led people to search all over the county, and I have not found such a man. ”

"Trouble!" Li Younian couldn't help but sigh when he heard this.

The master next to him, Qian Youchang, rolled his eyes and said.

"My lord, Sun Zhutou, you say, will this murderer shoot at Miss Zhao?"

Qian Youchang opened his mouth to ask questions, he did not say this out of thin air, but inferred from the murderer's modus operandi in the past few days, the murderer's target every time was a young and beautiful woman, and if it was a young and beautiful woman, Zhao Abao was definitely the first beauty in Chen County.

The so-called authorities are fascinated, bystanders are clear, Li Younian and Sun Jin have been busy looking for the murderer himself these days, and they really haven't thought carefully about the murderer's target.

"Very likely!" Sun Jin was the first to speak: "Judging from the situation of the five deceased, the murderer's targets are all young and beautiful women, and in terms of beauty, Miss Zhao is definitely the first person in my Chen County, if the murderer knows Miss Zhao, I am afraid that it is very likely to make a move." ”

"However, as far as I know, it seems that since the old man left some time ago, neither Mrs. Zhao nor Miss Zhao of the Zhao family has left the Zhao Mansion, and according to eyewitnesses, the murderer has been in contact with the dead woman before, at least he has seen the true face of the deceased, in this way, if Miss Zhao has not been noticed by the murderer in the Zhao Mansion of Chu State, the chance of making a shot should be very small. ”

After a deep groan, Sun Jin speculated.

"In this way, first send someone to check whether Miss Zhao has been out in the past few days, in addition, anyway, since the murderer's target every time is a young and beautiful woman, then Zhao Abao is likely to be his target, send some people over at night, pay close attention, this may be a breakthrough for us to arrest the murderer. ”

Li Younian pondered for a moment and made up his mind.

"Yes, I'll do it. ”

When Sun Jin heard this, he immediately responded.
