Just remember

Chapter 54 Xiahou Villa

"I have a problem with this person. When I arrive in a new place, I can't sleep well. Yesterday was the same. I turned back and forth and fell off the bed to the floor. I woke up when I fell, and then I heard footsteps in the corridor. I secretly opened the door and saw that the senior sister was wearing daytime clothes, as if she had just come back from outside. Not long after that, the senior sister started crying, the crying was very small and muffled, as if she was covering her with her hands or covered by a quilt I think she did this because she didn't want to be discovered, so although she really wanted to pass, she held back. After a while, the crying gradually disappeared. Sleeping..." Lin Qiaoxing couldn't help sobbing, "I should have gone if I knew it earlier! If I went there, she wouldn't be killed! It's all my fault!"

Chun Jinran gently wiped her tears with his cuff: "It has nothing to do with you, the one who really deserves to die is the one who hurt her."

"Who is this person?" Lin Qiaoxing asked bitterly.

Chun Jinran looked at the window, and the afterglow of the setting sun came in from there, casting a layer of red on the room: "We will know soon."

The information provided by Lin Qiaoxing not only made the direction of the whole incident clearer, but also completely clarified the "location of the first strangler" that troubled Chun Jinran before.According to Lin Qiaoxing, she heard and saw this just after the fourth watch, because when Nie Shuang was crying, there was the sound of beeping outside.Just after the fourth watch, it was around Yinshi, and an hour had passed since Pei Xiaoyi heard footsteps and conversations. At this time, Nie Shuang was still alive, which meant that only things that made her "sad" happened in the deserted courtyard. , and the things that really "killed" her all happened in her room, right after Lin Qiaoxing fell asleep again.

Although Lin Qiaoxing said that she didn't hear the voice of the second person, Chun Jin knew that there must be a second person in the room!

Chun Jinran returned to the table, sat down again, and spread out a blank sheet of paper to list all the known time points and corresponding events. Soon, the context of that night appeared clearly before his eyes.

When he was close to ugly, Nie Shuang went out for an appointment, and was seen by him who had just bid farewell to Hang Mingjun.

Just after the ugly hour, Nie Shuang passed by Pei Xiaoyi's room and arrived at the small courtyard. Pei Xiaoyi heard footsteps and conversations.At this time, he had already lost the person, and he was still beating the wall in the dense forest.

At Yinshi, Nie Shuang went back to her room and cried.

At Chenshi, Nie Shuang's body was found by the maid.

"what is this?"

A figure blocked the light in front of him, Chun Jinran raised his head, it turned out to be Dingchen.

"Have you eaten?" Chun Jinran asked.

Ding Chen nodded, then glanced at the untouched meals on the table, and said flatly: "Each porridge and meal are not easy, so they shouldn't be wasted."

Without saying a word, Chun Jinran immediately put down the pen, took the bowl, and started to gobble it up.

When Ding Chen looked at him like this, he knew: "It turns out that there is a clue." After speaking with a smile, he picked up the paper that had not completely dried the ink, and looked at it carefully.

After a while, the cold food was swept away by Chun Shaoxia.

Ding Chen saw that he had finished eating, so he asked: "Are the time and things mentioned above real?"

Chun Jinran nodded vigorously: "It's a certainty."

Dingchen looked at him quietly for a while, then suddenly said: "It's more than that, have you deduced the whole process almost?"

Chun Jinran really wanted to give him a hug: "He who knows me is also a master!"

Dingchen shook his head with a smile, and sat beside him: "Young monk, listen attentively."

"I think, things should be like this." Chun Jinran no longer hid it, and confided his inferences, "Nie Shuang fell in love with a man half a year ago or more, and the two spent some time together. In the sweet time, Nie Shuang even wanted to leave the Xuanmiao School for him, but then there was a problem between the two, maybe the other party changed his mind, worldly pressure, or something else. In short, this relationship passed away. Although Nie Shuang was sad, there was nothing he could do Unexpectedly, the two met again in Xiahou Mountain Villa. Nie Shuang probably wanted to save the other party, but the other party might not be willing. For some reason, the two made an appointment to meet and talk in detail in this deserted small courtyard, but the talk did not come to fruition. , and the man who was eager to get rid of Nie Shuang returned to the room with her, and Nie Shuang started to cry after returning to the room, the man may have made a false comfort or promise, and then killed Nie Shuang when he was unprepared."

Dingchen frowned slightly: "Since this relationship has passed away once, why can't the murderer bear it for a few days, and when they are separated from each other, it will naturally pass away for the second time with time."

Chun Jinran shrugged: "Maybe there is something that forced the murderer to kill."

Ding Chen: "For example?"

Chun Jinran froze suddenly, as if thinking of something, she slowly looked at Dingchen.The latter also reacted and looked back at him with the same expression.With their eyes facing each other, the two spoke in unison——

"marriage!"

Investigating the case for the owner of Xiahou is easy to die, but accusing the son of Xiahou of killing is sure to die!

Fortunately, right now, it's just speculation without any direct evidence.

So a little monk and a layman closed the doors and windows, and started a secret conversation on the serious issues of life and death——

"Is it conclusive?"

"Just guessing."

"Where's the evidence?"

"There is no hair."

"Where are the shoe prints?"

"It is estimated that the whole villa can find a hundred or so."

"Could it be someone else?"

"Exactly."

"That's right, with so many guests in the villa, we don't know how many stories behind them, Xia...he just happens to be the first bird, the easiest to think of."

"So, right now, everything is ready, only the murderer is missing." Chun Jinran sighed, and slumped on the table weakly, "I can't question everyone one by one, and even if I ask, what do you say? Didn't she have an affair with Nie Shuang? Only a fool would say yes."

knock knock.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

Chun Jinran and Dingchen looked at each other, the latter got up first and opened the door.

"Little master is here too." The visitor smiled like a spring breeze. He was dressed in gorgeous clothes and bright colors, so he wouldn't be afraid of being lost in the crowd. Except for the third son of Qingmen, Qingfeng, who could be so charming?

"We're leaving now," Ding Chen smiled softly, "Mr. Qingfeng, you and Chun Shaoxia have a slow chat. Chun Shaoxia, don't think about that, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, and we will wait for the turning point." yes."

Watching Dingchen's figure disappear into the distance, Qingfeng said with emotion: "The monks just think about it."

Chun Jinran rolled her eyes: "If you want to be sarcastic, just say so."

"You look like you are going to die, I can't bear to make trouble again." Qingfeng said in a sincere tone, but Naihe's expression was completely different.

"What are you doing here?" Chun Jinran said angrily.

"My friend's life is hanging by a thread. Of course I have to come and care about it." Qingfeng said, walked over and opened the window, and soon a gust of wind blew in. After turning around, he left through the door that had not been closed after Dingchen left. It's much cooler, "The doors and windows are closed on a hot day, are you stupid in investigating the case?"

"You're right," Chun Jinran was suddenly discouraged, and he was no longer in the mood to bicker, "I may really not be able to see the sun tomorrow morning."

"Hey, I was just making a joke." Qing Feng was a little unbelievable, "Old man Xiahou is really planning to let you take the blame!"

Chun Jinran lay on the table, weakly: "There must be someone who comes out, either the murderer or me."

"Then why are you taking this job!"

"Do I have a choice! And someone has sworn to guarantee me!"

"..." Qingfeng's momentum weakened, and he muttered, "I'm not the only one..."

Chun Jinran sighed heavily: "Yeah, popularity is so good, sometimes it's also a burden..."

Qingfeng Black Line: "It's really time to let Hang Mingjun Fangshu Road and the others come and listen."

Chun Jinran twitched her lips, but she didn't have the energy to fight again. Qingfeng didn't know what else to say when she saw this, and the two of them were speechless for a while.

In the end, it was Chun Jinran who broke the silence: "Seriously, what are you doing here?"

Qingfeng put away the joke, and was rarely serious: "I want to come over and see if there is anything I can do to help."

Chun Jinran actually thought of it, but when he really heard it, he was very warm: "Thank you. Although you can't help solve the case, just looking at your clothes makes me feel better."

Qingfeng got up, turned around very chicly, his clothes fluttering: "Handsome, isn't he?"

Chun Jinran nodded sincerely: "I will never forget it."

Satisfied, the third young master of Qingmen sat down again, poured two cups of tea, pushed one cup in front of Chun Jinran, and sipped one cup for himself, but when his teacup bottomed out, Chun Jinran remained motionless on the other side, with a solemn expression and deep eyes.

"It seems that you really met your opponent this time," Qingfeng sighed, "Is there no clue at all?"

"On the contrary, there are so many clues that I can deduce almost every detail of the murder..." Chun Jinran looked at him as he spoke, with a look of anxiety and discouragement in his eyes, "However, I just can't figure out that face."

"Then don't think about it." Qingfeng said suddenly.

Chun Jinran didn't understand, and frowned in doubt.

Qingfeng lowered his eyes: "My mother once said that if you can't figure out something, you should put it aside first, then do something else you like, and then pick up this matter later, maybe it will make sense."

Qingfeng's mother, Yuanshi, was killed by the Lin family who avenged her son in the chaos of Qingmen. Although the murderer was not himself, it was hard to say that he had nothing to do with him.Thinking of this, Chun Jinran became more and more sorry, and even more grateful for Qingfeng's arrival.

"Okay, don't think about it anymore!" Chun Jin stood up abruptly, drank the tea, "tell me, what should we do?"

"Don't ask me, ask yourself what you like to do the most!"

"Solve the puzzle, break the boredom!"

"That's easy!" Qingfeng rolled his eyes, and there it was, "This is an anagram, listen, the ancient moon shines on the water and the water flows long, and the water is half the ancient moon for the spring and autumn, and it stays so bright that the ancient moon shines, and the depths of the blue waves are good Rafting."

Chun Jinran: "..."

Qingfeng: "No way, it's so simple that you can't guess it?"

Chun Jinran: "I don't bother to answer! You are insulting me by making such a simple crossword puzzle!"

Qingfeng: "Then you are the answer to the mystery."

Chun Jinran: "Lake."

Qingfeng: "Oh, you're right."

Chun Jinran: "Nonsense!" The first line alone is enough to return the whole poem, how untrustworthy the puzzle solver is! ! !

"Okay, okay, I'm going from easy to difficult, step by step." Qingfeng continued to roll his eyes, and soon came another one, "Three mountains are from three mountains, and mountains hang upside down, month after month, month after month. connected."

"use."

"You don't even have to think about it..."

"Born this way."

"Half hair and half glossy, half smelly and half fragrant, half edible mountain grass, half still hidden in the water!"

"fresh!"

"This side looks like ancient Chinese, that side looks like ancient people, if the middle is removed, it looks like a woman!"

"Do!"

"A round of bright moon hangs in the sky, ladies and talented scholars, Bing Dilian, will meet you when you are by the blue pool, reading poetry and books carefully!"

"..."

"Hey, what's the matter, are you dumb?"

Chun Jinran frowned and pursed her lips tightly, as if all three souls and seven souls had rushed into her mind to fight against this puzzle.After an unknown amount of time, he thumped the table and stood up: "I have surrendered! What is the answer to the riddle?"

Qingfeng smiled sweetly: "Wine is easy to sell."

Chun Jinran looked confused: "Huh?"

Chunfeng repeated it patiently.

Chun Jinran reacted: "Damn, four words!"

Qingfeng shrugged innocently: "I didn't say that the answer is only one word."

Chun Jin ran a black line, just about to curse a few words, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through his mind, and the next moment he couldn't care less about bickering, he hurriedly found the two papers from his body, held them tightly in front of his eyes, and slowly But he read every word on it very seriously, and the force in his eyes seemed to burn the paper out of the hole.

Qingfeng knew that he must have thought of something, so he didn't dare to disturb him, but the person in front of him became more and more excited, his face became distorted, and finally he threw the paper on the table, turned around and opened his arms, and gave him a secret A blazing hug!He endured this too, but the other party was still not satisfied after hugging him full of arms, so he changed from sitting to standing and from standing to leaving his feet off the ground, and finally if it wasn't for his strong figure that forced him to put down ten Cheng Shi will go around in circles together! ! !

"Brother Qingfeng—"

"Needless to say, I understand."

"Blue Wind—"

"See you."
