The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple
Chapter 338 The biggest suspect
Chu Yunxi didn't look like she was joking at all. Mother Du smiled awkwardly and said, "Princess, the girls here really don't know kung fu."
"Could it be that you don't know?" Chu Yunxi asked coldly.
"How could that be? The girls here are either raised by us and we know their background very well, or they are prostitutes. Such girls will be trained when they come. If they know Kung Fu, we will definitely know it when we train them."
There is another type that Mother Du did not mention, which is forcing women of good character into prostitution. But again, if they know kung fu, they cannot force them.
Thinking of this, a person suddenly appeared in Mother Du's mind. Her face changed slightly. This small change did not escape Chu Yunxi's eyes. She immediately asked: "Did you remember something?"
"Oh, no." Mother Du thought, that shouldn't be the case. She doesn't talk much on weekdays, and if that matter were to be told to others, where would Fenglailou's reputation be?
Chu Yunxi was half-believing and half-doubting, but seeing that Mother Du's expression suddenly turned firm, she was not sure whether Mother Du was hiding something.
Chu Yunxi asked Mother Du to report the heights of all the girls in the building. She decided to start with the height and screen out those who met the requirements.
Mother Du was busy measuring the girls' heights. Chu Yunxi sat down on the first floor. Just then she saw Mao Xiaolei coming in from outside. She waved at him and Mao Xiaolei ran over immediately.
"Why did you come so early today? Is your stomach feeling better?" Chu Yunxi pointed at his stomach.
Mao Xiaolei scratched his head in embarrassment. "The princess's medicine is very effective. My stomachache stopped last night. Mother Du sent someone to say that I was absent from work yesterday and she wanted to deduct two days' wages from me. I came to argue with her."
"Didn't you ask your father to come over and ask for leave?" Chu Yunxi remembered that Mao Xiaolei had clearly said yesterday that he asked his father to come over and ask for leave.
Mao Xiaolei said angrily, "Yes, but Mother Du is unreasonable and insisted that I was absent from work. If Bai Xue wasn't here, I really don't want to work here anymore. Mother Du forced women of good families into prostitution, deducted wages, and was mean. She is really abominable. Bai Xue really gave her a light lesson last time."
"Bai Xue teaches Mother Du a lesson?" Chu Yunxi's heart trembled and she grasped the key point.
毛晓磊却毫无察觉,说道:“是啊,白雪刚来应征琴师的时候,杜妈妈看白雪长得好看,想逼良为娼,派了几个人想要制服白雪,没想到却都不是白雪的对手,被白雪打的哭爹喊娘的,连同杜妈妈也被揍了一顿,白雪问她现在可不可以只做琴师,杜妈妈只能答应,我也是那个时候,喜欢上白雪的,她实在太飒爽了。”
Mao Xiaolei's face turned red as he recalled the past, but Chu Yunxi was enlightened. Bai Xue's height, her kung fu, the fact that she left Fenglai Tower last night, and Du's mother's concealment of the matter, probably because she was afraid of being embarrassed, all indicated that Bai Xue was a big suspect.
Chu Yunxi glanced at Xiao Mubei, and Xiao Mubei also understood. He nodded gently at Chu Yunxi and turned around to make arrangements for Hei Mu.
Mao Xiaolei didn't know that he had exposed Bai Xue yet, and was still immersed in beautiful memories. Chu Yunxi asked, "Where is Bai Xue now?"
Mao Xiaolei shook his head. "She should be at home. She is the same as us. She goes to work at twilight hour. She usually comes at that time."
Chu Yunxi felt a little reluctant. If Bai Xue was really the murderer, how sad would the boy be if his dream was shattered?
"Do you know where her home is?"
Mao Xiaolei shook his head, "I don't know. I rarely talk to her."
Chu Yunxi was a little surprised, "Then how much do you know about Bai Xue?"
When talking about Bai Xue, Mao Xiaolei's eyes seemed to be twinkling with stars. "Although I just like her silently, I know that she hates evil and is righteous and kind. If any girl in the building is in trouble, she will help them and will not look down on them because they receive customers at night. I have never expressed my feelings to her because I feel that I am not worthy of such a good girl, so I have never dared to tell her."
Chu Yunxi sighed in her heart. She hated evil and was just and kind. However, no matter how just she was, she could not punish the evildoers herself and ignore the law.
"Okay, you go back first. Rest at home for one more day. I will talk to Mother Du for you. Your wages for the next two days will not be deducted. You don't need to come today." Chu Yunxi didn't want him to see Bai Xue being caught.
"Really?" Mao Xiaolei smiled happily, "Thank you, Princess. I feel relieved now."
Watching Mao Xiaolei leave, Xiao Mubei said, "He will know it eventually."
"Then let him know later. This way, he can be happier for one more day." Chu Yunxi sighed.
Mother Du sent down the heights of all the girls in the building. Apart from the technicians, there were three girls in the building who met the murderer's height requirement. Chu Yunxi asked Mother Du to call all three of them down and carefully examined their palms. They were all weak and boneless, with no signs of martial arts training at all. The murderer was very skilled in killing and his hands must have kung fu skills, and there must be signs of martial arts training on his palms.
After ruling out the suspicion of these three people, the only ones left were the technicians who started working at Youshi. Bai Xue was the most suspicious. Chu Yunxi called her mother Du again and asked directly, "Why did you hide the fact that Bai Xue knew Kung Fu?"
Mother Du was startled and blurted out, "How did the princess know?"
As expected, Chu Yunxi sneered, "It doesn't matter how I know this. What matters is that I now suspect that you are in cahoots with the murderer. You deliberately concealed the truth and almost delayed the case. What crime should you be charged with?"
Mother Du was so scared that she fell to her knees. "Princess, please spare me. I was confused for a moment and thought that the incident was too embarrassing, so I didn't tell anyone. I really didn't mean to do that. If I had known that the princess already knew, I would not have concealed it."
Chu Yunxi saw that she was very upset and knew that she was not hiding it on purpose, so she asked, "How is Bai Xue's kung fu?"
Mother Du said: "Her kung fu is really good. I had six bodyguards at the time, but none of them could beat her alone. What's more, she can fly and is very agile. I couldn't run away even if I wanted to." Mother Du still has lingering fears when she thinks of the beating she received.
Chu Yunxi was even more certain that Bai Xue must have something to do with this matter, but she just didn't know why she did this.
The hour of You finally arrived. When Bai Xue's graceful figure appeared on the long street, a constable informed Xiao Mubei of the news. Perhaps Bai Xue never thought that she had been exposed, so she didn't realize something was wrong until she walked to the front of Fenglai Tower.
