Daming King of Punishment

Although the housekeeper is not considered an important role in the Hou Mansion, he is still an important person after all.

The maid shook her head: "I don't know."

A housekeeper disappeared, and Mrs. Hou was so panic-stricken. This kind of behavior is somewhat incomprehensible.

The look of panic was only for a moment, and Madam Hou quickly realized, she hurriedly put away her expression, and told the maidservant: "Keep looking and find out where he went."

After greeting the maid, when Madam Hou looked at Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo again, the expression on her face was a little nervous.

"My lords, please take a look at the scene again, or find the people to ask about the situation. I have something to do, so I'm sorry." Madam Hou said something directly to the two of them, then turned and left.

Without giving them a chance to speak, Mrs. Hou hastily left here.

Watching her leave, Bai Zhuo asked in confusion: "Brother Wu Ya, look why this Madam Hou is so nervous all of a sudden. What is the relationship between the housekeeper and her? Why is she so panicked when the housekeeper disappeared? Her reaction just now is so terrible. It's not pretending, it's a natural panic reaction after hearing about this incident. It seems that we really found the right butler, and I think the problem lies with this butler."

"Maybe." Song Wuya was not sure, but as Bai Zhuo said, he also believed that there must be something wrong with the housekeeper.

The first thousand and 120 chapters Xiaowan

?Chapter 120, Xiaowan

"Ms. Hou is getting weirder the more you look at it. When the two of you asked her that question just now, her behavior was extraordinary. At that time, I looked at her face carefully, and almost one question changed. An expression. Even the things she voluntarily said in the end, I feel that they are fake." Situ Wen looked at the two of them and summed up the strange behavior of Mrs. Hou just now for them.

Hearing these words, Song Wuya didn't directly guess what Madam Hou's purpose was, but made fun of Situ Wen.

"Wen'er, didn't you say that Mrs. Hou is definitely not the murderer?"

"Yes!" Situ Wen was surprised when she heard this, and then she understood the meaning of Song Wuya's words, and immediately retorted: "Could it be that you think she is the murderer now?"

This Song Wuya really didn't dare to say, he didn't identify who the murderer was.

Shaking his head: "Wen'er, I'm just joking. Let's analyze some of the things Madam Hou told us just now."

"Brother Wuya, this yard probably wasn't like this in the first place. It's very likely that it was remodeled into this way recently." Bai Zhuo spoke first, but he paused after saying something, looked solemnly at the surrounding flowers and said, "These The flowers and grass are so distorted, but it seems to be intentional, should we dig up the land and see if there is something buried under it?"

Bai Zhuo's eyes were fixed on these flowers and grasses, and he suspected that there was something buried under the soil.

The place is watering regularly, Song Wuya really didn't think about whether there would be something buried here.What Bai Zhuo said now aroused his curiosity.

Speaking of the flowers, Song Wuya thought again: "Didn't Mrs. Hou call the servants to find the person who watered it just now? Why is there no movement now?"

I looked left and right, but I didn't see anyone. The few maidservants who were around just now all left here with Mrs. Hou.

In the empty yard, there were only four of them left.

"Bai Zhuo, how did you think that something was buried here? Do you suspect that a corpse is buried here?" Situ Wen asked suspiciously after hearing Bai Zhuo's words.

"En!" Bai Zhuo gave a very positive answer.

But upon hearing this, Song Wuya expressed doubts: "I don't think so. Aren't those women sent out of the city to be buried after they died? That's what the servants said. Besides, if it's true here If the corpse is buried, why do people need to water it here? Is it just to make people think that this place is a field of flowers and plants?"

"Brother Wu Ya, since I have such doubts, don't we know if we dig it out?" Bai Zhuo didn't say why he doubted it, but just dug it up and had a look.

To say that this is not a problem, Song Wuya didn't say too much, he nodded: "Okay, let Catcher Hu dig it up and have a look."

Speaking of Catcher Hu, before Song Wuya told them to investigate some things, half a day had passed, and there was still no reply.

Although Song Wuya remembered it, he didn't rush to remind him.He was worried about the maid who went to water the flowers just now, why this household didn't see her come back to report.

"Just now when Mrs. Hou talked about the haunting, she originally wanted to hide it. Under Bai Zhuo's questioning, she explained that she was afraid that you would not be able to track down the real culprit because of the haunting. Have you ever doubted this? explain?"

As soon as the two finished talking, Situ Wen asked them a question from the sidelines.

"Doubt this explanation? Wen'er, you want to say that her explanation is just casual? In fact, she has another reason to hide this haunting thing?" Song Wuya immediately understood what Situ Wen meant by asking this. , clearly felt that Mrs. Hou said that on purpose.

Looking back now, Mrs. Hou's answer was a little awkward, and she had time to think about how to explain this question at the time.

And her answer is indeed true, but if you look deeper, there are some loopholes.

Now that Situ Wen mentioned it, Song Wuya also began to doubt it. He immediately recalled the later events and said: "When we investigated the scene before, we found some women's clothes in the closet of the room. These clothes were originally We thought it was left by the woman who lived in the house before. But after Mrs. Hou said it was obviously wrong, these clothes were put in on purpose. And she said that this happened before, these women's clothes were in the It appeared after the haunting. It is conceivable that this pretender put it in on purpose. But when talking about this matter at the time, Mrs. Hou chose to hide it at the beginning. Now after careful consideration, she really thinks that this Madam Hou may really want to hide this matter, in order not to let us know some of it."

"But then why did she still tell these things in the end?" Bai Zhuo immediately asked in confusion: "Then if she knew this earlier, why did she hide it before?"

"Who would know?" Song Wuya shook his head helplessly: "Just now we have reached a critical point, but that maid came at a really bad time and interrupted our inquiry. Maybe we will continue to ask Go on, what important things can Mrs. Hou say."

"Just ask later. I'm afraid we won't gain much from our trip in the afternoon." Bai Zhuo said with a sigh.

"Not necessarily!" Song Wuya immediately shook his head, indicating that the situation is not so bad: "Brother Bai, you are wrong. Not only did we not gain anything, but we also made a lot of discoveries!"

"Brother Wuya, did you really find something?" Bai Zhuo looked at Song Wuya in surprise, in his opinion, there was nothing found today. "Could it be that you're talking about the housekeeper?"

The most suspicious thing seems to be the butler, but what Song Wuya said is not about the butler.

"It's not the housekeeper, but the shoe under the bed."

"What about the shoes? You mean you found the owner of the shoes?"

Bai Zhuo was very puzzled when he heard this. After all, they had heard all the things Mrs. Hou said before and after, but he didn't feel that the matter about the shoe was revealed in it.

"Maybe, this is just my guess." Song Wuya didn't speak too much, but said something modestly. "Ms. Hou said that some of the things in this room came out after being haunted. Judging from her tone, she should know something about those women. We have also known before, but those who live in this room After the women died, all their things were thrown away, and the room was also cleaned up. Therefore, the room should be clean before the incident. There were no clothes in the closet, and the bed was clean. And there's no shoe under it."

Song Wuya analyzed what he judged for them, and at this point, he could basically determine the time when this shoe appeared.

He went on to say: "And this shoe obviously came from the feet of a maidservant in the Hou's mansion, so it is very likely that a maidservant was hiding under the bed at that time. I carefully recalled what I heard from the servants before. I learned about the ins and outs of the haunting and the case. On the night of the incident, after Lord Hou came back, he had a quarrel with Mrs. Hou. After the quarrel, he separated from Mrs. Hou, but he did not directly Come to this room. Brother Bai, do you remember that Hou Ye first went to find a maid named Xiaowan?"

"Of course I remember this. It should be because I didn't find this maid at that time." Bai Zhuo remembered this incident, and he remembered it too, but Master Hou went to the backyard and did not find Xiao Wan.

Song Wuya nodded and continued: "Yes, Lord Hou didn't find Xiao Wan at that time, and then he came to this room. Why do you think he didn't find Xiao Wan?"

"Uncle, didn't Madam Hou say that? Before the case happened, Xiao Wan was kicked out of the Hou's residence by her." Hearing this question, Xiaohuan answered Song Wuya's question from the side.

"That's right!" Song Wuya nodded and said: "Mrs. Hou did say that at the time, but I suspect she lied. If Xiao Wan is not in the mansion, why did Hou Ye go to find Xiao Wan? You know After Hou Ye came back late at night and quarreled with his wife, he actually went to find a maid. It can be seen that the relationship between this maid named Xiao Wan and Hou Ye is not ordinary. So, it is not ugly to go to Xiao Wan from Hou Ye It turns out that Xiaowan was in the Hou's mansion at that time. It's just that no one could find her where she was at that time. To be exact, the servants of the Hou's mansion did not find a place to find Xiaowan. .”

Having said that, they all understood what Song Wuya was going to say.

"Wu Ya, you mean that Xiao Wan hid under the bed in this house at that time?" Situ Wen said, looking at the house beside her in surprise.

Song Wuya nodded solemnly again: "That's right, she should have been in this room at the time, as to whether she had already hid under the bed, that's unknown. I guess this Xiao Wan is the one who turned this room into a haunted house." The instigator. Perhaps Master Hou already knew this, so he was not worried about the haunted house. Perhaps this was why he chose to come to this haunted house where no one lived when he couldn't find Xiao Wan. "

"Master Hou probably guessed that Xiao Wan is here, so he came here to find Xiao Wan?" Bai Zhuo followed Song Wuya's words and said the same sentence.

His words also got Song Wuya's nod of approval. Song Wuya thought this way: "Perhaps Hou Ye and Xiao Wan met at that time, and we don't know what happened between them. However, the reason why Xiao Wan Hiding under the bed, maybe because the murderer came here, it is very likely that she witnessed the murder scene."

?The whereabouts of the first thousand and 120 chapters become a mystery

"Finding Xiaowan is the key thing, but the problem is that Xiaowan doesn't know where she is going. Those servants don't know where she is, and Mrs. Hou said that Xiaowan was kicked out of the Hou Mansion by her." When Bai Zhuo heard Song Wuya say that Xiaowan might have witnessed the crime, she must know who the murderer was, but she was helplessly caught up in the unknown whereabouts of Xiaowan.
