Su Xiaopei was startled, she was calm, just about to ask what was the matter, but Sima Wanru said, "I'm here to talk to the girl."
Come to chat with her with a sword
Su Xiaopei frowned, Sima Wanru didn't move, she seemed to be waiting for Su Xiaopei to invite her in.
Su Xiaopei thought about it and let her in.
Sima Wanru entered the room and sat straight on the chair beside the table, not being polite at all.
Su Xiaopei's brows continued to wrinkle, this young lady from a big family is so rude! She was also not feeling well, and said, "Wait." Then she turned her head and went out to pat Ran Feize's door.
As a result, no one responded.
Su Xiaopei remembered that at dinner, Bai Yulang said that he would take Ran Feize to meet his fast-catching brother at night. The big guy really wanted to meet Uncle Ran who knew him. This is not to go out and fool around and not come back. After thinking about it, Su Xiaopei went downstairs to find the second inn, and asked him to bring a pot of tea to her room, and instructed him to come to her if he saw the man next door to her coming back.
Xiao Er agreed, but for this strange-looking woman to ask the male guest to find her late at night, he dared to tell an outsider like him that he really looked down on him, which was really shameless. But Xiao Er didn't say anything, agreed with all his mouth, and ran to make tea.
Su Xiaopei went back to the room, Sima Wanru was still sitting there, but her brows were slightly wrinkled and her face was impatient.
"I'll let Xiaoer make a pot of tea, and let's chat while drinking." Su Xiaopei explained, looking at the sword she placed on the table, and went over to sit down.
Sima Wanru didn't say a word, stared at her for a while, then suddenly said, "What is the girl guilty of?"
Is she guilty? Su Xiaopei pursed his lips, completely disliking Sima Wanru.
At this time, Xiao Er brought tea in, set up cups for the two girls, poured the tea, and looked at Sima Wanru curiously during the process. There was no obvious change in expression on Sima Wanru's face, Su Xiaopei breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Er poured the tea and went out, closing the door before leaving.
At this time, Sima Wanru spoke again: "Why should you be afraid of me if you don't do anything wrong, I have no plans to do anything to the girl, I came to look for the girl, and I have seen so many eyes, so it's not bad for the witness of Xiao Er. Relax, I'm just here to ask the girl something."
"Miss Sima usually brings a sword when she talks to someone?" Su Xiaopei was really relieved, she asked back, deliberately using a tone similar to Sima Wanru's.
Sima Wanru glanced at the sword in her hand, but did not answer the question, but continued to ask: "The girl said with certainty that the murderer who killed my sister was not the murderer in the reward notice. I want to ask the girl, Miss Nayi. Look, who is the murderer?"
"I know, I said it at the mansion today."
"But after a day, doesn't the girl have a more accurate inference? Who is the murderer? Why did he kill my sister? What is the motive?"
Su Xiaopei shook his head.
Sima Wanru gritted her teeth, stared at her, and said, "Isn't the girl able to read people's minds? Can't you know the details of the serial criminal from the actions of the serial criminal? I don't know if the serial criminal is known by asking questions. Kill my sister? Why don't you know who killed my sister? What about the murderer who killed my sister? Can't the girl figure it out?"
The more she spoke, the faster she spoke, the more excited she became.
"Miss Sima!" Su Xiaopei called her and interrupted her.
Looking at her red eyes and tense body, she suddenly softened her voice and asked, "Have you been resting since you came back?"
Sima Wanru didn't answer, she stared at Su Xiaopei with a stern face and said nothing.
"Compared to the murderer who is at a loss and who is unknown, Miss Sima is more willing to believe that the one who killed Sister Ling is the serial criminal? In this way, at least things are clear, and you don't have to keep thinking about who the enemy is, right? Isn't it right?" Su Xiaopei stared at Sima Wanru's face, "Actually, you think my words are reasonable, but you are not reconciled, do you? If the murderer is someone else..."
Su Xiaopei lowered his voice, dragged the last word, and stopped.
After a while of silence, she asked again, "Miss Sima, what do you want to say to me?"
Sima Wanru looked away, avoiding Su Xiaopei's gaze, and asked after a while, "Miss Su, my father found someone to test today, and my sister is indeed not poisoned. She didn't call for help, she didn't struggle, it wasn't that she was ordered by someone. The cave is someone she knows, she is not prepared, right?"
Su Xiaopei didn't answer, but instead asked, "What clues can you think of in the girl's mind?"
"My sister has always treated people well, she has never been evil, and everyone likes her."
"But isn't it a long time since the girl went to study with a teacher? Maybe something happened to my sister in the past few years, and the girl didn't know about it."
"I've been away for three years. My sister and I often corresponded. She told me everything and never complained about anyone. She was obedient and obedient since she was a child, and never made trouble."
"What about the girl?"
Sima Wanru raised her eyes suddenly.
"Did the girl cause trouble?" Su Xiaopei asked, "Does the girl have a grudge with someone?"
Sima Wanru glared at her and said, "What do you mean by this girl?"
Su Xiaopei clenched her sword tightly when she noticed what she said. Su Xiaopei was quiet and asked her again, "How old is the girl?"
"Almost eighteen." Sima Wanru lowered her eyes again.
"Eighteen, it's not too young." Su Xiaopei pondered, in this age, eighteen is not married, is it considered old
"That girl, sister, is nineteen or twenty?" Su Xiaopei asked, "I heard that Miss Sima's engagement partner is the childhood sweetheart Chang Gongzi, why did you delay getting married so late?"
Sima Wanru glared at Su Xiaopei, "Girl, don't you think it's rude to talk about such a private marriage?"
"Oh." Su Xiaopei nodded, "I'm so sorry." In fact, from her point of view, it would be rude to bring a sword to ask questions at night.
"How much does the girl know about Young Master Chang? You and him are childhood sweethearts, right? From the girl's point of view, is he in harmony with your sister?"
Before Su Xiaopei finished asking, Sima Wanru jumped up: "Girl! My sister's body is not cold, how can you ask this girl?"
Su Xiaopei leaned back and looked up at her.
Sima Wan sighed and calmed down a little, "You should be cautious when you speak." She picked up her sword, as if planning to leave, but then said, "Miss, I am going to Changfu today, just to talk to Chang. Big brother told me about my sister... I also hope that the girl will not make it public. My sister suffers from this misfortune, and I hope the girl will take care of her boudoir reputation."
Su Xiaopei nodded.
"Please ask the girl to say hello to Ran Zhuangshi on her behalf."
Su Xiaopei nodded again.
Sima Wanru lowered her head: "So, I'll disturb the girl."
She turned to leave, but Su Xiaopei stopped her: "Miss Sima, I have another question."
Sima Wanru turned around with a frown.
Su Xiaopei asked, "Why does the girl feel guilty about the death of Sister Ling?"
Sima Wanru's expression changed suddenly, but he quickly turned his face up again, raised his chin, stared at Su Xiaopei and said, "I was delayed because of some things, and I came home a day late. If I come back earlier and my sister is close to me, then If we're going to sleep and talk all night, she's not alone, maybe... this thing won't happen."
Su Xiaopei did not speak, Sima Wanru gritted her teeth and asked, "What else do you want to know, girl?"
There is still more she wants to know, but now is not a good time to ask questions, Su Xiaopei smiled and replied politely: "It's late at night, girl, be careful all the way back."
"Thank you girl." Sima Wanru turned away with a cold face.
Su Xiaopei didn't get up to see her off, he sat in the room staring at the teapot in a daze, carefully recalling the conversation just now. After a while, she jumped up and went to get a pen and paper to jot down her thoughts, but there was a sound at the door. Su Xiaopei was stunned for a moment. His intuition was that Ran Feize was back, so he hurried to open the door. As soon as he arrived at the door, the door was pushed open, and a smell of alcohol came in, but it was a drunk man.
Su Xiaopei did not know.
When Sima Wanru left, she didn't get up to lock the door, she was negligent for a while, but she didn't expect someone to break in like this.
The drunk man was a little surprised when he saw Su Xiaopei, and muttered, "Why are you a sister-in-law?" But he quickly grinned again, closed the door with his backhand, and reached out and touched Su Xiaopei's face: "Nice sister, just now If you are still vulgar, you think your father hurts?"
So disgusting! Su Xiaopei was shocked and angry, he waved his hand to knock off the man's stinky claws, and shouted, "Who are you? Get out of my house!"
The drunk man was beaten a little in pain, but he didn't leave. He hugged him suddenly, and smirked on Su Xiaopei's face: "Are you kidding me? Come on, I'll make you comfortable."
Su Xiaopei shouted loudly and pushed him away with force: "Go away, I'm calling someone!" She was very loud, but she didn't hear anyone coming from outside the door.
The drunk man was pushed against the wall, his back hurt so much, he was so embarrassed that he slapped him: "Bitch, dare to beat me!"
Su Xiaopei was prepared this time, and quickly took two steps back to hide. The drunken man was even angrier after being avoided by Su Xiaopei, and swore swearing at him again. Su Xiaopei was angrier than him. She knew that she was not a big man's opponent in such a fight, so she kicked him decisively. The drunk man never expected that a woman would make such a bad move. As she was being kicked, she screamed and squatted down with her stomach in her arms.
Su Xiaopei started screaming after kicking, and rushed to the door shouting "help".
Ran Feize, who had just entered the door of the inn, heard the sound and rushed in quickly. When he saw the door opened, the room was filled with a drunk man who fell on the ground with his life in his arms, and Su Xiaopei who was standing at the door unharmed and screaming.
Ran Feize was stunned.
Seeing him coming, Su Xiaopei closed his mouth.
At this time, a number of people who were called by Su Xiaopei's "help" came over from the door and opened their heads to probe their brains.
The drunken man in the room will be relieved, still holding his life, but shouting to Su Xiaopei: "Bitch, dare to kick me!"
Ran Feize asked, "What's going on?"
"He broke in and wanted to insult me." Su Xiaopei rubbed his face, feeling sick to the point of vomiting.
"This bitch called me in."
"Stop fucking farting, fuck you|mother|forcing it." Su Xiaopei was extremely angry and swearing.
Ran Feize turned to look at her: "What do you mean?"
"Greetings to his mother."
Ran Feize didn't understand, but it was not a good thing to say, so he didn't ask. He took a few steps forward and picked up the drunk. The drunk man shouted loudly: "She asked me to come, the second brother can testify!"
The little Er who brought tea to Su Xiaopei stood up and shook his hand, "No, no, I'm just joking." He told the other little Er downstairs what Su Xiaopei said and asked the man next door to find her to be amused. , There was some rubbish in the conversation, this drunk was just listening to them there, and he lived next to Su Xiaopei, on the other side. Hearing this with a laugh, he must have waited for him to go. Xiao Er didn't care, and when he was also amused, he laughed again, not specifically saying that Su Xiaopei was waiting for the strong man who came with her. So the drunkard used the gall of wine to pretend to be crazy, and came up. When I came up to see that the door was unlocked, I thought that was what it meant, but I didn't want to make such a fuss.
Ran Feize listened and didn't speak, Su Xiaopei had a dark face, Xiao Er was trembling with fright, and twitched his mouth.
The drunk man saw that the situation was wrong at this moment, and the drunkard didn't dare to make trouble. Ran Feize picked him up, dragged him out, drove everyone away, and closed the door for Su Xiaopei. After a while, he came back, knocked on the door, heard Su Xiaopei respond, opened the door and saw that she was washing her face, rubbing so hard that her face turned red.
Without moving, Ran Feize asked her, "What is the girl looking for from me?"
Su Xiaopei was still angry and wanted to kick the villain, but he didn't respond. Ran Feize came in, found a chair and sat down.
Su Xiaopei rubbed enough, and threw it into the basin with a towel.
"Is the girl injured?" Although she looked very energetic, he still cared about whether she suffered a loss, but it was inappropriate to ask directly, so he put it another way.
"No." Su Xiaopei turned around and sat down opposite him.
Ran Feize said nothing and waited patiently for her.
"I think I'm really stupid, really stupid." Su Xiaopei calmed down, really embarrassed. Although this was the drunkard's fault, the root cause was her inappropriate behavior and speech. In the eyes of those people, she is afraid that she is vulgar and shameless? She felt a little sad.
"Why did the girl look for me?" Ran Feize pretended not to hear her self-blame.
Su Xiaopei rubbed his face: "Second Miss Sima came to me, holding a sword, she was fierce, I was a little panicked, I went to find you, you were not here, I thought of a way to ask the second to bring a pot of tea , and told him to pay attention if he sees you back, let you come to me to find me. I want Xiao Er to see Miss Sima. Anyway, she has a personal certificate, so she will not dare to do anything. If it still doesn't work, come back and find me. Me, I'm more at ease."
Ran Feize poured her a cup of tea. "What is Miss Sima looking for you?"
"It's nothing, I think her main purpose is to make me stop publicizing the fact that I saw her coming out of the Chang residence today, and let me tell you. But she also said something else, we chatted. , I mean, we had a conversation."
"Did the girl see anything wrong?"
Su Xiaopei breathed a sigh of relief and stabilized his mood. "Yes. I think there are some problems with her sister's marriage. They and Chang Gongzi are childhood sweethearts, and they want to get engaged, shouldn't they do it earlier? A strong man, a woman is eighteen|nine-year-old unmarried, isn't she too young?"
"Indeed. But there are indeed a lot of people who got married in eighteen|nine." This means that this is not suspicious.
"Second Miss Sima is very nervous. When some people are nervous, they pretend to be cold-hearted, but I know she is nervous. She hides secrets, and she likes to use rhetorical questions, which is a sign of dodging and guilty conscience. Especially when I ask If she was in trouble, she asked me what it meant. I asked her sister and Chang Gongzi’s childhood sweethearts, why they got married so late, and she asked me back if I didn’t think it was rude. I asked her if she knew about Chang Gongzi and his relationship with her sister How, she asked me how to say it."
"The girl's questions are indeed..." Ran Feize thought about how to describe it, "Well, it's not very polite."
Su Xiaopei pursed her lips, she felt that it was always rude to say nothing here. Thinking of what she said to Xiao Er was insulted and laughed at by them, she felt sick again.
"What's wrong with Miss Sima, girl?" Ran Feize drew her attention back.
"As I said, she has secrets, so she often uses rhetorical questions to avoid them, and the three rhetorical questions I just mentioned are not only evasive, but also aggressive. She is refusing to answer with anger and accusations, and these three questions stabbed her. That's the point. She's tired, grumpy, cover up, she's guilty."
"Guilty?"
Su Xiaopei nodded: "I asked her directly about this. She said she was delayed and came back a day later. If she came back earlier, her sister might not die."
Ran Feize touched|touched her chin: "Does the girl think she is lying?"
"Hard to say."
Ran Feize glanced at her, Su Xiaopei shrugged: "I'm not a micro-reaction expert, I only know a little bit."
Ran Feize raised his eyebrows, showing an expression of "I don't understand again".
Su Xiaopei waved his hand, "It's just that I'm not good enough. But I know that she really wants me to believe her words. This means that even if she didn't lie, it's not the whole reason. There's something else behind it."
"Girl." Ran Feize suddenly said: "Girl is the smartest I've ever seen, why is she so stupid?"
Su Xiaopei blinked, realizing that he was comforting her. She felt warm in her heart, he said the word "stupid" strangely, and she wanted to laugh.
"However, what is the word for being stupid? Is it stupid to the extreme?"
Su Xiaopei really laughed.
"Did the strong man help me beat him?"
Ran Feize understood it without thinking.
"Well, I punched him several times. He didn't dare to fight back, so he packed up and checked out."
"Why retreat?"
"I crushed a glass in front of him. He was probably afraid that I would crush something else if I didn't get out?"
Su Xiaopei laughed, clenched his fists and gestured: "I really should have kicked him two more times, hard!"
"Cough cough." Ran Feize coughed twice, his face serious.
Su Xiaopei squinted at him, what should this person say about this indecent girl
"Girl." He really said.
"What are you doing?!" Su Xiaopei continued to look at him sideways.
"This is indecent..."
Hmm, she knew it.
"But if this kind of thing happens again, it's okay for the girl to use it."
Huh
Su Xiaopei stared blankly at Ran Feize, who smiled at her.
