Volume 7 Chapter 11 Tragic Death
Wei Xiu nodded, and after a while, someone brought a pen and paper. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Su Zhuo picked up the pen and wrote down an IOU, which owed Wei Xiu a tael of gambling money and silver on a certain day in a certain year. It is written in great detail, and even the interest geometry is added.
Su Zhuo wrote and said to Wei Xiu: "How about this?"
Wei Xiu picked up the IOU, gently dried the ink, and said with a smile: "Su Gongzi is really a gentleman, this IOU is more valuable than a daughter, I have to be careful to put it away!"
She smiled at Su Zhuo, turned around and went downstairs with someone. Su Zhuo stood in place, and didn't come back to his senses until a few people upstairs had walked away, but he couldn't figure out what Wei Xiu meant when he left.
He went downstairs to take a look, but he didn't find Hua Ping, and couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "Ungrateful guy, why did you disappear as soon as you arrived on the island!"
However, scolding and scolding, Su Zhuo is penniless, but he is the most fatal. He didn't have any friends here, so he just sat in the lobby and filled his stomach with some fruits and pastries that didn't cost money. It was getting late, almost everyone went to drink, and the gambling house was much quieter.
Su Zhuo was so confused, got up and walked to the backyard. He knew that everyone had been assigned a room in the backyard and wanted to go back to the room and get an early rest. There was no one in the backyard, it was very quiet, and even the sound of the evening breeze blowing the leaves could be heard.
Su Zhuo walked through the corridor and suddenly saw candlelight in a guest room not far in front of him. He couldn't help but wonder how there was still someone who was as embarrassed as himself? At this time, he didn't call his friends to drink, but stayed alone in the room.
He walked over to the room, trying to see who it was. When he came to the door, he saw the door wide open, the evening breeze blew in, and the candle flame flickered. There was a man lying on his stomach in the open space in the room, motionless, and a pool of blood and water flowed out wantonly, which had already condensed on the ground.
Su Zhuo was shocked, and looked at the ground at first glance, from the door to the ground of the corpse, it was clean, there were no footprints, and there were no traces of blood. He cautiously entered the house and looked around, and the room was also neatly tied, and there was no sign of a fight. But there was something strange about the candle, the candle was new, and it had just burned a little.
Su Zhuo pondered for a while, hurriedly walked out of the door, and looked around, there was no one. He was in disbelief in his heart, bowed his head and groaned for a while, then slowly returned to the room, crouched down beside the corpse, and turned the man's face over.
This look surprised him even more, it turned out that it was none other than Liu Fei who died! Su Zhuo couldn't help frowning and turned Liu Fei's body over. I saw that the flesh and blood in his throat were blurred, and there were several paw prints, which were killed by someone who scratched the blood vessels with one claw. The throat is a vital part of the human body, and there is a lot of bleeding. The scene inside the house was truly miserable, and the smell of blood in the evening breeze was disgusting.
Su Zhuo sighed and thought to himself: "Although Liu Fei is young and vigorous, he is quite famous in the rivers and lakes, and he is also a man, how could he die here in vain? What's even more strange is that what is he doing here?"
He was about to take a closer look when he heard a commotion outside the door, and someone shouted, "What are you doing!"
Su Zhuo turned his head and looked, it turned out that a few Jianghu martial artists had returned. When they saw the scene in the room, they naturally thought that Su Zhuo was committing murder, shouted loudly, and rushed up. Su Zhuo dodged and said loudly: "Stop! Listen to me first!"
Those people were just rough men, and when they saw the tragic scene in the house, they were even more bloody, and where could they hear it, they rushed up again with their teeth and claws.
This burst of movement attracted more people to gather around the door, not knowing what was happening, and they did not dare to enter the house for a while. Suddenly, there was a broken cry from the door: "Stop!"
This sound was quite majestic, and the people hurriedly stopped and looked behind them inexplicably. They didn't entangle, and Su Zhuo naturally didn't make a move, and stood quietly aside. A fat body walked into the door, it was Lou Wan. This is his territory, and as soon as there is a disturbance, he will know immediately.
Lou Wan glanced at the corpse on the ground, his face turned pale, and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"
When he asked, he didn't know whether he was asking Su Zhuo or those people, and the person who came first said loudly: "Boss Lou, just now our brother came back from drinking, passed by this courtyard, and saw a light in the room." When I looked at it again, I saw this man committing murder!"
When everyone heard him say this, their eyes stared at Su Zhuo, as if they thought he was a murderer, for fear that he would escape. When the three of them came in first, it seemed that as long as Su Zhuo made any abnormal moves, they would go up and make a move. Just now, the three of them worked together, but they didn't take advantage of Su Zhuo, which has made them greatly embarrassed in front of people, if they can't give him a little color, I'm afraid it will be more difficult to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes in the future.
Su Zhuo thought about things in his heart, and didn't pay attention to what they said at all, and a pair of eyes swept over everyone's faces, but he didn't find anything.
Lou Wan looked at Su Zhuo and said, "This son, what is going on in this matter, won't you explain it?"
Su Zhuo saw everyone pointing at him, and suddenly felt extremely funny. He has repeatedly solved strange cases, and it is the first time that he has been regarded as a murderer by others. He looked at Lou Wan and said, "Boss Lou, don't you recognize me? This afternoon, I still had tea on the second floor!"
Lou Wan made a straight face and said coldly: "Son, I'm sorry, the old man greets too many guests, and he really can't remember them all in his heart." ”
Su Zhuo was helpless, and he couldn't cry or laugh. Suddenly, someone shouted: "What are you still doing in a daze? He's a murderer, so let's take him down quickly!"
Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was Du Qingfeng, the head of the Kongtong faction. He had just arrived at the scene, and he hadn't figured out what was going on, but after listening to a few comments from others, he was about to command the group.
Lou Wan had a gloomy face, and said to Su Zhuo: "I'm sorry son, you are the most suspicious now, I can only wronged you first!" As soon as the words fell, the group of heroes was eager to try and want to show in front of others.
Suddenly, a woman's voice came from the courtyard: "He's not a murderer!"
This voice was not high, but everyone had to stop. Everyone looked back, and sure enough, Wei Xiu had arrived. The crowd automatically split a way and let her into the house. Wei Xiu glanced at the dead body on the ground, and repeated: "He's not a murderer!"
Lou Wan couldn't help but wonder, "Why is Miss Wei so sure?"
Other people don't say it, but they think the same thing in their hearts. There are even more obscene people who secretly think, isn't this girl looking good at this little white face, and she can't deliberately protect it?
Wei Xiu glanced at everyone and said lightly, "Do you know who this son is?"
Most people shook their heads blankly. Wei Xiu continued: "He is Su Zhuo Su Gongzi! You say that he is such a smart person, if he wants to kill someone, will he let you arrest him?"
As soon as her words fell, everyone discussed: "It turns out that he is Su Zhuo!" "I heard that he has solved many strange cases on the rivers and lakes, and he is extremely smart!"
