Chapter 16: bewildering

Views:

Jinglin opened the car curtain and half exposed his face. His eyes fell on the entrance of Chen's alley, where everyone had gathered, all of them came for the murder case.

"Could it be that Tong Ling is still related to this family?" Cang Ji said in his sleeve, "But this place is clearly an ordinary family."

Jinglin leaned down and got off the sedan chair, and said, "I feel that the copper bell is still here. If I don't investigate the case first, I'm afraid I won't be able to find the copper bell."

"This case is bizarre, it's not like man-made." Cang Ji recalled the scene a few days ago, and said, "There are five people in his family, but there is one little girl missing. I heard the night talk of the monster next door, maybe it was being attacked by a monster. Caught for blood."

"If it's a monster." Jing Lin put his fan into his sleeve, "How could Hui An and the Division of Boundaries sit back and ignore it."

Cang Ji didn't pay attention, but Jing Lin remembered clearly. Although the body in the yard had been eaten by the Rakshasa bird that night, it still left many traces. Among them, the bloodstains that were dragged out were the most conspicuous, and the murderer was clearly murdering, rather than giving him a slap in the face.

"Investigate the case." Cang Ji put the stone figure under his head and said with his legs crossed, "Can I still enter this place? The Drunk Mountain Monk is afraid that he will be fortified everywhere, so he will be waiting for you to fall into the trap."

"The Division of Boundaries is in charge of everything, except for the case of fatalities." Jing Lin raised his head slightly, and saw that Fu Ya's Zhao Kuai was entering and leaving the hospital, he turned his direction and went elsewhere.

The guy was stretching his neck to watch the excitement, when someone bumped him, he immediately turned his head and said angrily: "No long eyes..."

Jinglin is splendid, arrogant and extravagant. He leaned on the side, looked inward along the head, and said with great interest: "What's the matter, it's not someone else who bumped into you, it's the God of Wealth."

The man responsively changed the handkerchief and put it on his shoulders, squeezed out of the seat with a smile, got close to Jinglin, and said, "It's not the God of Wealth! Grandpa is born, has he never been here on weekdays? The government office a few days ago. It's not that there is a sign posted saying that a family has died, and it's here."

"No wonder they are all crowded here." Jing Lin glanced at the person beside him with disgust in his eyes, pulled a handkerchief from his sleeve, covered his nose and mouth slightly, raised his eyebrows and said, "Waiting to pick up the story?"

"You can't miss out with a mouth." The man posted a smile, "The store is just over there, a few steps away. If grandpa is free, you can go and sit too!"

"It's easy to say." Jing Lin said, "Who lives here?"

"This family's surname is Chen, and old man Chen takes his sick mother-in-law and sells candy on this street all day." The man pointed to Jing Lin, "It's just in front of our store, and we see each other every now and then. He also has a son, It's called Chen Ren, and Chen Ren's mother-in-law is the Zhou family. This is not the end. There is still a little girl at home, seven or eight years old, who is the little girl left by Chen's long-dead daughter. There are five members of the family. Old man Chen sells candy people every day to make ends meet. Where do you think this is possible? The family is all over the wall, and old lady Chen often brings her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhou, to ask people to borrow rice grains.”

"Where's your son?" Jing Lin really had an appetite.

The guy Nunuzui said: "Chen Ren hangs out in the casino over there all day, owes a lot of debt, and has been beaten more than once or twice. I want to tell you, this case is mostly done by the casino people. The last one Yue also saw that they were forced to the door of Chen's house, and the old man Chen kowtowed several times before sending them away, and they were all desperados."

Jinglin glanced at the gambling hall and smiled: "The desperados are so easy to fool, they can turn around in a few clicks? That's better than the beggars."

"Grandpa, you are wise!" The man held the man, and then said with a smile, "I said they were difficult because after that time, it was common for Dong Lin to hang out next to Chen's house. I'm afraid that the gambling hall couldn't breathe, and called Dong. Lin Lai is waiting for his revenge."

"Donglin?" Jinglin asked.

"It's not him." The buddy whispered, "He is famous in the world! He has a lot of skills, and he comes and goes without a trace. Yamen's wanted notices are posted everywhere, but no one has been caught yet. But we are running away, It's the right ear. I heard that he often lives in the town. Guess where he rests?" The man winked, "In the kiln in the east alley, I heard that he had a good relationship with a woman named Hua Di."

Jinglin hadn't noticed yet, but Cang Ji suddenly sat up in his sleeves.

Jing Lin asked again: "What does this person do?"

The guy whispered: "The thief Jiang Yang has a lot of big cases."

"A thief." Cang Ji bit out these two words and sneered at the stone villain, "I said there is a familiar smell in that room."

The guy wanted to talk, but was picked up from behind. He staggered and shouted: "Which grandfather of the God of Wealth is this!"

When he turned his head, he saw a familiar face, his legs and feet became weak immediately, and he flattered more than when he saw Jing Lin: "Gu catcher! Are you handling the case?"

Gu Shen held the knife in one hand, he was not young, and his eyes were particularly sharp. He brought the guy to him, but Yu Guang was looking at Jing Lin and said, "I heard you are so righteous, so go directly to the yamen and make a confession."

"What's going on next to me!" The man was shocked and said bluntly, "Anyone you can find on this street is more familiar than me! Well, that Master Qian, doesn't Master Qian live next door to Old Man Chen? Go find him!"

"People have been there early in the morning." Gu Shen handed the man over to the subordinate behind him, flicked his waist card, wiped his hands, raised his chin to Jing Lin as usual, and smiled roughly, "You face."

This life has double eyes, I am afraid that even ordinary monsters will not dare to look at him.

Jinglin's mask did not move, and he still half-covered his mouth and nose. When he narrowed his eyes, he smiled and looked wanton.

"I am such a good citizen who keeps his own feet, and the adults are afraid that I should face it."

Gu Shen laughed, turned to look at the alley, and said, "Young Master is also interested in this murder case?"

"Naturally." Jing Lin said, "I have never encountered it before, it is very novel."

"This is a case of silence. The corpses are scattered and tragic." Gu Shen tapped the handle of the knife, "Shouldn't ordinary people be afraid?"

"What are you afraid of." Jing Lin saw the tricks and tricks. "The hearsay can still make me afraid of two wars? Rumors are mostly three people become tigers, and I will wait for the adults to find out the truth."

Gu Shen rubbed the stubble on his chin and said, "Young master is curious, so he didn't ask me about it? This case is now in my hands. I know more than this guy."

Jinglin received the pa, tilted his head slightly, looked a little lighter, and said, "How many beads do you want? You don't need to go around, just say it bluntly."

The Yamen Jukuai is no worse than the rest of the people. It is only worth twenty silver beads throughout the year. They are only food and miscellaneous items. The Yamen does not give out monthly money. Repeatedly.

Gu Shen was startled, then raised his head and laughed again, raised his hand and waved, and said, "Young Master will look down on Gu, what a few beads are, don't ruin Lao Tzu's name. Sorry, it was abrupt just now. already."

He wanted to say something else, but he heard someone behind him remind him, "Brother, Liu Shirong is here."

Gu Shen clapped his fists to Jing Lin, which counted as farewell. Jing Lin nodded and saw him turn away.

"This person is not easy to fool." Cang Ji said, "Is there such a keen sense of people? I think he can hardly leave the knife, Jing Lin, he is tempting you."

Jing Lin still stared at Gu Shen's back and said, "This case is confusing, and he needs to find some clues ahead. What did you say in your sleeve?"

"The thief who took the copper bell is Dong Lin. He really has something to do with this case." Cang Ji hugged his shoulders, "Why did he kill the Chen family? This family is so poor that they can't give him any money."

"Maybe it was entrusted by others." Jing Lin said, "Having money can make a ghost run the mill, and it is not impossible for a casino to buy him to commit murder."

"He took the little girl away?" Cang Ji said, "Why don't you keep your mouth shut."

Jinglin pondered silently, and finally said: "It is rare to have a complete picture based on one word, and there are still people."

Qian Weishi shook his hands and wiped his palms constantly. The water in the basin was still clear, but he seemed to have filth that couldn't be wiped clean. He rubbed harder and harder, rubbing the flesh red.

There was a knock on the door, and Qian Weishi suddenly stood up and knocked the basin over to the ground. He quickly cleaned up in a panic, and asked softly at the door, "Who?"

"Master Qian, I'm bothering you." Gu Shen's waist badge swayed in the gap between the door.

Qian Weishi clenched his fists vigilantly, propped up the door, exposed his eyes from the cracks, and said, "I already know everything you need to say to you, what else do you have to do with me?"

Gu Shen only smiled and said in a rough voice, "There are some things that you have to listen to the Master again."

Qian Weishi swallowed saliva in Gu Shen's eyes, he removed the latch and opened the door. Gu Shen stepped through the door, looked at the yard inadvertently, and said, "I didn't pay attention in the morning, Master's yard wall is not high, it is easy to attract thieves."

Qian Weishi's yard and Chen's house are close together. In fact, the walls of this piece of yard are not high, and people of similar size can see the situation in the yard of the neighbors with a little tiptoe. The Chen family is posted in the alley, inside is an old widow with a grandson, and outside is Qian Shishi.

Qian Weishi followed Gu Shen and said, "If you die, you have to increase your height."

Gu Shen said again, "How about you wash your hands? Haven't eaten yet."

Qian Weishi glanced at him reluctantly and said, "I just saw the corpse with the adults, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat anything these days."

"I have dealt with countless cases, but this is the first time I have encountered such cruelty. It is shocking to kill people and divide their bodies."

Qian Weishi motioned to Gu Shen to sit down, and Gu Shen sat down with a big horse and a knife. He said, "Don't gossip, and go through the confession to the yamen with me again."

Qian Weishi sits cautiously, and speaks with a kindness. This teacher is nearly forty years old, but he still has fine skin and tender meat, which shows that he has rarely experienced wind and frost on weekdays. He was thin and thin, and to Gu Shen, he was like a woman who was powerless.

"That night, I came home early from school, drank some wine, and slept more deeply than usual. In the first half of the night, I only heard the noise of the wind, and I was half asleep and half awake from the cold. At the window, I heard Chen Yuan making noise, I thought it was Chen Ren returning home." Qian Weishi frowned involuntarily, "Chen Ren always loves to gamble, even the second old man's coffin was taken away for gambling money. Home must be for money. This man has the habit of beating and scolding his parents and daughter-in-law, so every time he goes home, he has to make a lot of noise. I was drunk, and the scolding continued, and when I was annoyed, I blocked my ears. "He covered his face here and choked, "But how do I know that someone died in the late night, and poor Cao Yu was caught. She is only seven years old, and I don't know what the murderer's intention was."

Gu Shen said nothing.

Qian Weishi made some adjustments, and his eyes were red when he looked up. He said: "Chen Ren, this bastard! He is the one who brought disaster to the family. This man is full of evil, and it is not a pity to die. It's a pity that he has to take others with him. It really makes me sad."

"I heard from my buddy that Chen Ren owes a lot to the casino."

"Sixteen gold beads." Qian Weishi wiped his eyes, "I can't even afford to buy grass rain!"

Chen Caoyu is the little girl of the Chen family.

"This case is brutal. Before it is solved, the Master must be careful. Don't go out to teach books these few days. The yamen will come to you at any time." Gu Shen got up, turned his head suddenly when he was about to leave, and handed Qian Weishi a handkerchief. "Master, wipe the sweat from the back of your neck."

Qian Weishi's astonishment turned into fear almost instantly, he touched the veil unresponsively, nodded hastily, and said, "Thank you, thank you."

Gu Shen clasped his fists to say goodbye, and walked across the door to leave. As soon as he left, Qian Weishi calmed down. The master frowned, stared at the handkerchief in his hand for a moment, and finally realized a little violation.

Gu Shen, who used to be called "Lao Tzu", when would he say "nuisance" when he knocked on the door? The government office remembered his confession clearly. If Gu Shen wanted to read it, he could read it at any time, so why did he make another trip? He was already suspected by the yamen, so Gu Shen had to make a special trip to greet him and tell him to "don't go out"

Qian Weishi broke out in cold sweat, and even the cold hair stood up.

It wasn't Gu Shen who came, who was it? !

When "Gu Shen" stepped out of the alley, he brushed shoulders with the street market hawker, as if he was shedding his cocoon, he instantly rose up, revealing a pair of affectionate peach blossom eyes.

Jing Lin pinched his throat and fastened the buckle by the way.

Cang Ji slandered at the villain stone: "Look at him, he's deceiving others, he's obviously more powerful than me."

The stone villain made a face at him, actually a little proud.
