I've been a headhunter at Six Doors all these years

Chapter 17 016: Revisiting the Qian Mansion
Women are always duplicity.

Ling Yun smiled, and then asked: "Sister Hua, since you have considered all five flower-picking cases so reasonable, why do you say that the five flower-picking cases may not have been done by one person?"

Ji Yaohua said: "At first, I also thought that these five cases were committed by one person, but I discovered a crucial problem."

"Please make it clear, Miss Hua."

Ji Yaohua said: "In the following four flower-picking cases, the flower-picking thief used a dagger to push the window bolt from the gap in the window, so as to open the window and enter. But this first flower-picking case did not come from the window bolt. entered."

Ling Yun pretended to be puzzled and said, "Could it be that he entered the room by prying open the door?"

Ji Yaohua said: "No, I checked the bolt inside the door carefully, and there is no sign of prying."

Ling Yun said again: "Did it come down from the roof?"

Ji Yaohua shook her head: "The roof tiles show no signs of loosening, and the ground is paved with bluestone bricks, and there is no loosening either."

Well, this woman is also very observant.

He pretended to frown and said, "So, isn't this a murder case in a secret room?"

Ji Yaohua nodded: "This is exactly what I don't understand. If the five cases were committed by one person, why are the crimes completely different? But if not one person, why are there many similarities? place?"

Ling Yun thought to himself: It seems that Ji Yaohua has fallen into this kind of mystery just like me.Stretching out his hand to touch the horse's mane: "Sister Hua, then how can we catch this flower picker?"

Ji Yaohua pinched the steed between her legs, frowned and muttered: "At present, we have too few clues to lock down the criminal's target. We can only cast a wide net, squatting secretly near the boudoir of some wealthy ladies, waiting for the flower pickers to appear, and then Take him down in one fell swoop."

After hearing this, Ling Yun secretly said: This is not a stupid way, but this capital city is so rich, how can it be defended?

"Sister Hua, there are so many ladies from rich families in the capital, I'm afraid that even if all the people in the six doors are dispatched, it may not be enough to guard them?"

Ji Yaohua looked sad and looked at Ling Yun: "Then what should you do?"

Ling Yun said: "It is said that the five girls who were picked flowers were all young and beautiful. Presumably, the next goal of this flower picker must be to pick young and beautiful rich girls. Therefore, I think we only need to choose the young and beautiful daughter in the capital. It’s fine to stay at Miss’s house.”

"That's right, your analysis is very reasonable. In this way, we will have enough manpower." Ji Yaohua agreed.

At night, when Ling Yun returned home, he tossed and turned on the bed, without any sleepiness, and was still thinking about the five serial flower-picking cases in his mind.

If you want to be promoted to Bronze Headhunter, you have to solve more major cases.Although this serial flower-picking case is not a big case for Six Doors, it has a great influence in the public. As long as he breaks the serial flower-picking case and catches this flower-picking thief with his own hands, even if he is not promoted, at least he will be promoted. ’s reputation will also increase, right?

There will be rewards in the system when the prestige is improved, and the rewards are huge.

However, why doesn't this f*cking system give any hints!This is not like the previous style of the system.

Without any hint, how could he catch this flower picker?
Well, well, it seems that I can only rely on the reasoning knowledge I have accumulated from the detective novels I have read for many years, and I can be a detective for a while.

Ling Yun pondered hard.
He had an intuition that the problem must be in the first flower-picking murder case.

The first murder case of picking flowers is a murder case in a secret room. Only by finding the breakthrough of this murder case in a secret room, can the mystery of the whole serial case of picking flowers be found and solved.

So how did the criminal enter Ms. Qian's boudoir in this secret room murder case?
The doors, windows, roof, and floor have all been checked, and there is no sign of prying. Could it be that the criminal has already hidden in Miss Qian's boudoir?

If this is the case, the criminal must enter the room to hide in the daytime when no one is around. This possibility is very low, unless the criminal is a servant of Qian's mansion. Sneaking into Qian's mansion during the day and hiding in Miss Qian's boudoir is easy to be discovered.

Is there any other reason?

After thinking about it in the middle of the night, a strange idea suddenly popped up in my mind, what if Miss Qian knew this flower picker?

Thinking of this, Ling Yun's mind was immediately refreshed!
If Miss Qian knew the flower picker, it must be Miss Qian who let the flower picker in, then the secret room case would not exist.

But Ms. Qian let the flower picker in, but refused, and was killed by the flower picker instead. This shows that the two of them are just ordinary friends, not lovers.

But since they are ordinary friends, why did the two meet again in the boudoir at night?
This is really another mystery!
Anyway, Ling Yun decided to go to the Qian Mansion tomorrow to find out if there are any men who have been in contact with Miss Qian.

The next day, Ling Yun came to Qian's mansion alone by taking the opportunity of going out to investigate the flower-picking case.

After showing the six-door head-catching token on his waist, the servants of Qian's mansion did not dare to neglect, and immediately reported to the Qian family to welcome him.

"I don't know what your lord's business is in our residence today?"

Seeing Ling Yun, Yuan Qian hurriedly bowed his hands and saluted, his face was obviously surprised, thinking to himself, didn't you come here yesterday?

Although only Ling Yun came here today, Qian Yuanwai also knew that the headhunters of Six Doors could not be ignored.

Ling Yun: "I came to your residence today to ask Yuanwai Qian a few more questions."

Yuan Qian said: "Please tell me, my lord. As long as the ordinary people know something, they will know everything and say everything."

Ling Yun nodded: "Mr. Qian, did Ling Qianjin meet any other men before she was killed?"

Qian Yuanwai's expression turned serious: "My little girl has always had a very strict family education, not to mention meeting men from outside. She rarely even goes out of the door on weekdays. She sits in the boudoir and learns how to work as a maid all day long. Even if there are guests at home, she still greets them politely. Not much else to say."

Ling Yun thought to himself: Judging from the expression on the member of Qian's house, it doesn't look like he is lying. Could it be that Miss Qian really didn't know any men outside?
"Mr. Qian, I don't know if Ling Qianjin was betrothed to someone before she was killed?" Ling Yun asked again, changing the subject.

Qian Yuanwai shook his head and said, "The little girl is not married yet."

"Oh?" Ling Yun couldn't help being slightly surprised! "Ling Qianjin is sixteen years old, why hasn't she betrothed yet?"

In ancient times, women would betrothed to their husband's family when they were fourteen or fifteen years old, and a matchmaker would come to marry them as early as twelve or thirteen years old. Ling Yun couldn't help feeling very surprised that Miss Qian hadn't betrothed to anyone at the age of sixteen.
