The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple
Chapter 325 There is a suspect
The man's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. He moved his gaze between Chu Yunxi and Xiao Mubei, and seemed to look at Chu Yunxi's belly intentionally or unintentionally. Then he turned his eyes away and looked elsewhere, as if searching for something.
"Ah Cheng, you said that person hasn't come for a long time. He comes occasionally for a few days in a row, and then disappears for a while, right?"
Ah Cheng said, "That's right. I've only seen him four or five times in the past year. He only stayed for three to five days each time. I don't know how he can make money by setting up a stall like this."
Chu Yunxi thought for a moment and said to Ah Cheng, "Please look for that little monk. We will leave first."
"Okay, don't worry, girls. Take care, both of you." Ah Cheng said goodbye to Chu Yunxi and Xiao Mubei warmly.
After Chu Yunxi left Ah Cheng's stall, she whispered to Bai Yu, "Let Zi Han follow the fortune teller for a few days to find out his whereabouts, where he lives, who he interacts with most, and see if he is suspicious."
Bai Yu nodded in response, and Xiao Mubei asked, "Do you suspect him?"
Chu Yunxi pretended to look around at the things sold on the stalls and lowered her voice and said, "Yes, he only came four or five times a year, which is consistent with the number of victims. Maybe he came every time to search for a target. Is it the same purpose this time? We have to keep an eye on him to prevent more victims from appearing."
Xiao Mubei understood. Chu Yunxi bought a bag of chestnuts. Xiao Mubei took it and started to help her peel them. After peeling them, he put them in her mouth.
Chu Yunxi ate with a smile on her face. In the eyes of others, they were a loving couple.
Chu Yunxi said, "Also, I just saw him fortune-telling for someone, and what he said was probably bad. When the customer left, he looked sad, and he didn't seem to care about money, because he didn't even look at it. It can be seen that the purpose of setting up a stall is not to make money. In summary, I think this person is very suspicious."
Her analysis made sense, and Xiao Mubei almost thought that this person was in cahoots with the murderer. However, he also had a question, "Is it such a coincidence? We came here and we ran into them looking for targets here?"
Chu Yunxi shook her head. "It's just a suspicion now. Maybe it's just a coincidence."
Who can predict the future of this world? Otherwise, there would not be the saying "no coincidence, no story".
At this time, someone else sat in front of the fortune-telling stall. Chu Yunxi's eyelids twitched. This person happened to be a pregnant woman, about twenty years old, with a pretty face. Next to her stood a handsome man with his hand on the woman's shoulder. They were obviously a couple.
Chu Yunxi and Xiao Mubei looked at each other, and they stopped at the jewelry stall next to the fortune-telling stall. Xiao Mubei smiled and said, "My lady, this hairpin suits you very well."
The vendor smiled and said, "Sir, you have good taste. This hairpin..."
Chu Yunxi did not hear what was said later. Her attention was on the fortune-telling stall next to her. She only heard the fortune-teller asking about the woman's horoscope and what she wanted to predict. The woman said she wanted to predict the future of her unborn baby.
Chu Yunxi pretended to say to Xiao Mubei: "Husband, I don't like this hairpin, I want a pair of earrings."
The vendor immediately started introducing earrings. Chu Yunxi picked up a pair at random and tried them on her ears. Xiao Mubei also helped her choose. In fact, both of them were paying attention to something else.
The man asked the woman about her due date, and then counted on his fingers for a long time before saying, "Madam, this pregnancy of yours is dangerous."
Chu Yunxi's eyelids jumped, she put down the earrings in her hand, and said, "Husband, I don't like these earrings. Let's take a look at the pearl flowers."
The vendor's forehead was covered with sweat, so he started introducing the pearl flowers...
The woman beside him also skipped a beat and asked hurriedly, "Master, what do you mean by that?"
The fortune teller said, "According to my calculations, the day Madam became pregnant was a very unlucky day. Although the child you are carrying is destined to be a talented scholar and the top scholar, he died a violent death in his previous life, so he has a lot of resentment. If this is not resolved, I am afraid that before the young master can become the top scholar, he will cause trouble because of the resentment in his body, thus ruining his life and once again not having a good end. This cycle will repeat itself over and over again, and it will be difficult to resolve it in every life."
"How cruel." Chu Yunxi whispered to Xiao Mubei, "It's a curse for all eternity. It makes it hard for people to live in peace unless they resolve it."
"Ma'am, what did you say?" The peddler thought that Chu Yunxi had taken a fancy to a certain pearl flower, so he asked hurriedly.
Xiao Mubei pointed at the hairpins, pearl flowers, and a pair of fairly delicate earrings and said, "Pack these up for me."
After taking advantage of others for a long time and asking the vendor to introduce all the things on the stall, he had to give him some benefits. Xiao Mubei understood this principle and was not stingy with the money.
The woman next to him was indeed anxious and asked, "Master, how can we resolve this?"
The fortune teller looked at the people around him, pulled the woman and her husband aside, and spoke something in a low voice. Xiao Mubei used his internal energy, but could only vaguely hear something about a great monk and being pious.
The other party deliberately avoided people, so it was naturally inconvenient for Xiao Mubei and Chu Yunxi to chase after him and eavesdrop, so as not to alert the enemy. They could only take the things they bought and continue walking forward. Xiao Mubei made a gesture to Bai Yu, and Bai Yu understood and stayed to monitor secretly.
Only after they walked away did Xiao Mubei ask, "Do you think it's that person?"
Chu Yunxi said, "At the moment, it seems highly suspicious. It depends on whether the little monk will show up and take the couple to the mountain ridge. If he does, then it is 100% certain that these two people are the murderers of this murder case. However, there should be a third person, who is the one who met the women in the cave below. But if the couple was not taken away, then this person may not be the murderer."
"Then let's wait for Bai Yu's news downstairs and see what happens next before deciding what to do next." Xiao Mubei took out the things he had just bought, "Do you like any of these? If not, I'll throw them away and buy you new ones when I return to Beijing."
Chu Yunxi took it quickly, "Why would you throw it away? Even if it's not so exquisite, it's still interesting. It's good to keep it as a souvenir. Give it all to me."
Chu Yunxi doesn't like waste. These jewellery are all new and not that ugly. They will always be useful if kept. Besides, this is a gift from Xiao Mubei to her.
Xiao Mubei had just bought it casually and had no intention of giving it to Chu Yunxi. But when he saw that she was about to leave, he felt a little guilty, so he said, "When we get back to the capital, I'll take you to Baoyuxuan to pick out some jewelry."
Chu Yunxi understood his intention, so she agreed with a smile. The two of them got on the carriage and asked the purple-robed guards to drive the carriage to a secluded place. They took a short rest in the carriage and waited for Bai Yu's result.
