Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 690 The unfinished meal

Xi Yu also stepped forward to check, picked it up, smelled it, put it down, and said with a serious expression, "At least it should be yesterday's lunch meal... Although it is late autumn, the food is not easy to spoil, but this rice is half eaten. It’s really a bit unusual.”

There are three bowls in total, each one has a gap. The rice bowl is larger, and there is a small half bowl of uneaten rice in it, with some soup, a little remaining green vegetables, and half a piece of braised pork. Only in a smaller dish. The chopsticks were still resting on the rice bowl, as if he was eating, but he was temporarily interrupted. He got up and left in a hurry, leaving the leftovers behind and never waited for the man to come back...

Apart from this, there are no other traces in the courtyard.

"Look at the amount of food..." Xi Yu looked down at the small half bowl of rice, frowning and thinking for a long time. He didn't even think about the result. He couldn't tell whether the half-eaten meal was A Shou or A Shou. Long live his mother.

Ji Wuyan tapped the chipped small plate with chopsticks, "Aunt Xue said just now that the washer lady would visit the house every time she visited. Every time she visited, she would bring a piece of meat back for Ah Shou. It can be seen that the person who ate this meal That person is Ah Shou." After saying that, he was also silent.

If you really are that shameless person, a piece of meat is a piece of meat, and two pieces of meat are also a piece of meat, it is not as good as a mother and a child. Thinking about it, if she had not fallen into such a situation, she would not have wanted to have her pride crushed into dust.

The autumn wind whimpered, the shadows of the trees shone, and the low door with mottled red paint creaked. Ji Wuyan raised his eyes and looked at the small courtyard here that was so dilapidated that it was almost desolate.

Xi Yu was probably unaware of such emotions. He nodded suddenly, moved his eyes away from the three broken bowls, and looked around. The yard was not big, and the house was even smaller. Except for the half-covered kitchen, the remaining one was closed. The one with the slightly larger door seems to be the dormitory. Xi Yudang stepped forward first, pushed the door open, and then walked to the window. There was a hole in the lower right corner of the window, and the wind was leaking out.

Xi Yu looked inside and was startled, and her expression changed instantly.

The room is really not big, with a square eight-immortal table taking up a small half, a bed taking up the majority, a low cabinet, and a small table beside the bed, all of which can be seen at a glance. With the door closed, the only source of light was blocked by his figure, and the room became darker and gloomier... In this light, at the end of the sight, behind the Eight Immortals table, were the eyes of a humanoid object hanging. The way he "looked" slightly suddenly became more and more frightening.

Even Xi Yu was startled, and then he pointed inside with an expression on his face and hesitantly said, "Miss... this person... look, is he Ah Shou?"

After saying that, his brows became more and more tangled, and the door of the house tightened, as if he had committed suicide by hanging from a beam. However, there were still leftovers in the courtyard, and the man was hanging on the beam in his house - this dying man could not have even had a full meal. Don’t even have time to finish the meal?
  Ji Wuyan walked over in a few steps and looked inside. He saw the humanoid object hanging there, with a purple complexion, protruding eyes and slightly open mouth. It was obviously... cold. His face was hanging outside. Ji Wuyan had never seen Ah Shou, but the young man hanging at Ah Shou's house at this time should be Ah Shou himself.

Ji Wuyan was not too surprised by this result. Li Yuqi would never show mercy when it came to killing people and silencing them. She looked inside again, and vaguely saw a piece of paper pressed under the tea cup on the bedside table. There were vague words on the paper, which she could not read clearly. Ji Wuyan pursed his lips and ordered, "Go, open the door."

The door opened soon.

Ji Wuyan stopped Xi Yu outside and walked in. The furnishings in the house are the same as what is seen in the window, except that there is an extra bunk under the window. At this season, there is only a thin bedding, washed white, squarely stacked on the bedside.

Ji Wuyan walked up to the young man and stopped, looking up at him for a long time with his hands behind his back, his face solemn and his mouth pursed without saying anything.

Even if the door is opened at this moment, the sun is shining from outside, and the room is much brighter than before, but there is still a hanging man hanging in the room, but it is still seeping in. She stared for a little too long. Xi Yu, who was left outside, scratched the door frame and looked at this person silently looking at each other. She felt the cold wind on the back of her neck, making her feel horrified. He called in a low voice, "Girl..." Ji Wuyan withdrew his gaze and looked at the small stool lying on the ground. He turned around and told Xi Yu, "Go and find Lord Song, Yuan Qing and Song..." she said as she spoke. , while walking past the young man's body towards the bedside table, his eyes fell on that place casually, and he caught a glimpse of a few crooked words on the paper. He suddenly shuddered and called out, "Xi Yu."

Even the voice has changed.

Xi Yu didn't know what was going on, and when he was about to go out, he stopped and asked Ji Wuyan, "Miss, what else do you have to say?"

Ji Wuyan stared at those words, as if she was trying to poke holes in them. She suppressed her emotions and said slowly, "Tell Song Yuanqing to bring fewer people. Also, if there are any onlookers, ten million Stop...this boy, Ah Shou, is infected with the epidemic."

"Girl! Girl, come out, what are you going to investigate? Come down!"

Xi Yu was anxious and stepped into the room, but was stopped by Ji Wuyan sternly, "Stop!"

Xi Yu was anxious, "Girl! I won't go in, but you should come out quickly. Even if there are any clues inside, it's not worth risking your life, girl. I'll go down and ask Mr. Song to come over. I'll leave this place to Mr. Song." Come out quickly!"

There was a small table, an old tea cup, and a piece of crumpled paper. The crooked words on it looked laborious, but they were not long after all. Ji Wuyan had already finished reading, and turned around to ask Xi Yu, "What's on my body?" Do you have any fire seals?"

Xi Yu didn't know what Ji Wuyan wanted to do, so he touched his arms and took out the fire folder and was about to send it in. Ji Wuyan had already walked out, took the fire folder, blew it, and lit the suicide note, which was not authentic or fake. Watching it turn into ashes in his eyes, he put out the fire stick in his hand, threw it down, and turned back.

Seeing Xi Yu jumping around in annoyance and regret outside, he couldn't help but smile and comfort him, "Don't worry, it's much safer for me to go in than it is for you to go in. I have been trained by Mr. Chen since I was a child with countless treasures of heaven and earth. I have a good body. Even the disease can’t get close to me that easily.”

Xi Yu was stubborn and upright, "So what? Even so, my subordinates should go in. The lives of subordinates are not valuable, but the lives of girls are!"

The way he was holding his neck was completely lost from his usual cleverness.

Ji Wuyan shook his head and laughed, "There is nothing valuable or not. Where did your pedantic ideas come from? Did the third brother instill it in you?"

Xi Yu shook her head quickly, but still insisted, "That's right!"
