Demon detective

Chapter 146
According to Yuniang, she knew and fell in love with Meng Qingxi's son Meng Zhixiao a long time ago.

"...Although they can't be called childhood sweethearts, they are like friends," Yuniang said, "Meng Qingxi's family is in the business of transportation, and Meng Zhixiao often goes to our village with the drivers to deliver goods.

"My natal family runs a tea house, and I occasionally go to the tea house to help out, and their motorcade always stops by our tea house, so we got to know him over time.

"Later... as our relationship grew stronger, Meng Zhixiao asked his father to find a matchmaker to propose marriage. His family's conditions are very good, and the two villages are not far away, so my family readily agreed.

"I saw that the marriage was booked, and it was on a rainy day. I couldn't resist his temptation, so I gave my body to him...but..." Yu Niang's eyes were dim, and she sighed, "I didn't expect that the weather would be unpredictable.

"I don't know exactly what happened. The richest man, Meng Qinghui, just fell in love with me and insisted on letting me be his son Meng Zhichao's wife. But when my parents saw the large betrothal gift, they were unscrupulous and rejected it. The marriage proposal of Meng Zhixiao's family.

"When I heard the news, it was like a bolt from the blue! It's not that I didn't fight, but... but I really dare not say the fact that I have lost my virginity.

"In the end, I still didn't fight against my parents, so I could only marry the lame Meng Zhichao..."

"Oh?" Xu Zhen thought about it secretly, and asked, "Then how did Meng Zhixiao react?"

"Of course he was insanely anxious," Yuniang said, "He originally wanted to ask his father and a matchmaker to come to my house to question him, but Meng Qinghui, who is rich and powerful, has already compensated them, and his father will not pursue it anymore.

"In desperation, Meng Zhixiao secretly found me in the middle of the night and asked me to elope with him. But... but I... woo..."

Yu Niang wept sadly, and the pear blossoms were raining.

"How could I agree, and then..." Yuniang said, "Meng Zhixiao scolded me for being ungrateful, greedy for wealth and honor, and scolded me very harshly.

"Because I scolded too excitedly, my family was invited, so I walked away in a huff...

"Later, I was worried that he and Meng Zhichao were in the same village. On the day of my wedding, would he come over and make trouble, and would reveal the scandalous things we had done in public? I was afraid, I was really terrified... …

"But... I never imagined that he didn't make trouble, but something so big happened to my family... Woooo..."

"Then... this Meng Zhixiao..." Xu Zhen made a long sound on purpose.

"My lord, no, no..." Yuniang understood what Xu Zhen meant, and immediately shook her head and said, "I know that Meng Zhixiao also attended the wedding banquet, but he absolutely cannot be the person who poisoned him!"

"Why?" Xu Zhen asked.

"The most important point," Yuniang said, "is that he also drank poisoned wine! His face has also become the same as Meng Zhichao's, he is also a victim!"

is it?

Xu Zhenxin moved his head, thoughtfully.

According to his previous life experience, the purpose of murder is nothing more than that: seeking money, revenge, and killing for love. This case seems to have ruled out the first two, so... Could it be that killing for love?

Well, yes or no, it's up to the next interrogation.

However, after sending Yuniang away, Xu Zhen was not in a hurry to interrogate Meng Zhixiao, but continued to question everyone in the order of the list, and at the same time secretly searched for information about Meng Zhixiao.

Meng Zhixiao is still in the transportation business now, and has a horse-drawn convoy under his command, which is responsible for delivering medicines to the big households.

Therefore, their family's business is all dependent on the big drug sellers. At first they relied on Meng Qinghui, and later on Meng Shaojun. But now that Meng Shaojun died, their family's business was temporarily affected.

Therefore, Meng Zhixiao happened to be at home these few days.

According to other villagers, Meng Zhixiao is quiet and honest, although he is a person who often runs away, he almost never has conflicts with others.

However, there is no impenetrable wall. Everyone in the village knows the past between him and Yuniang, but they don't know that they already had the facts back then.

Moreover, according to gossip, some people claimed that Meng Zhixiao had seen Meng Zhixiao secretly throwing money at Yuniang's house, so he might have an affair with that Yuniang.

However, Xu Zhen was able to confirm that this was a rumor just by hearing one sentence, because if Meng Zhixiao really lost the money, it would be impossible not to wrap it up, how could he see the money directly?

Soon, Meng Zhixiao was brought into the interrogation room. Unlike the others, Meng Zhixiao appeared unusually calm.

Ok?
This performance alone made Xu Zhenxin suspicious.

Xu Zhen made the room dark and dark on purpose. After ordinary villagers came in, they would feel timid, but this Meng Zhixiao acted so calmly, which is not normal...

Also, this Meng Zhixiao looks mighty and majestic, if not for the facial damage, he would definitely be a handsome man.

And...Xu Zhen stared at Meng Zhixiao, and found that his facial paralysis was not very serious, only twisted, not collapsed, much stronger than Meng Zhichao and others.

"Hmm..." Seeing Xu Zhen staring at him, Meng Zhixiao immediately asked, "My lord, what do you want to ask me?"

"Oh..." Xu Zhen came back to his senses and asked, pointing to the map on the wall, "mark the location of your home, and also mark the place where you sat when you attended the wedding banquet, and then you'll be fine. .”

"Okay." Meng Zhixiao seemed to have known the process through others, and immediately without any disturbance, he picked up a brush and wrote his name on the corresponding positions of the two maps.

"I remember the location of the wedding banquet very clearly!" Xu Zhen asked casually.

"That's right," Meng Zhixiao put down his writing brush, and said, "Where did you drink the poisoned wine, and you will never forget it in your life! Eh? Eh, ah, ah..."

Unexpectedly, as soon as the brush was put down, Xu Zhen staggered suddenly and fell on Meng Zhixiao.

Meng Zhixiao quickly supported him, but Xu Zhen took the opportunity to grab him on the face.

However, this time, all he caught was real meat, which was almost broken by others!
"Hey? What are you doing!?" Meng Zhixiao pushed Xu Zhen away.

But Xu Zhen asked without changing his expression, "Why, you know martial arts?"

"This..." Meng Zhixiao rubbed his face and said angrily, "Nonsense, if I go out to deliver medicine, it's like escorting a dart. How can I do it without martial arts?"

"Oh..." Xu Zhen nodded, and said, "Knowing martial arts is good, but, I fought with Li Youcai and his gang yesterday, why didn't I see you?"

"They want to snatch property that doesn't belong to them," Meng Zhixiao said, "they don't want to get involved."

"Oh..." Next, Xu Zhen asked him a few more routine questions, and then let him leave after asking.

Gee...

Xu Zhen looked at his palm, it seemed that he was wrong, Meng Zhixiao really drank poisoned wine.

If not for love, what else could it be?

Hey?
But suddenly, Xu Zhen noticed another detail.

That's right, at the beginning... Mr. Meng Qinghui, why did you want Meng Zhixiao to marry Yuniang in such a hurry?
Logically speaking, with such good conditions in their family, even if Meng Zhichao had a leg problem, he wouldn't have to worry about marrying a good wife, right?Why do you have to steal someone else's?
Could it be... the problem lies with the groom! ! ?
