Affair in Linyue Town

Chapter 171 I Don't Know
Lin Yue ignored her, but took out each book one by one to read.

But unfortunately, there are no clues to the books on the bookshelf.These books are even very new, as if they have not been opened since they were bought.

However, there are various types of books, making people feel that the owner has covered a lot.

She put the last book away, and continued to wander around the room with her eyes.

Lin Yue also saw the photo of Qi Jinshu and Aunt Lu that Jiao Qingqing had seen before.Qi Jinshu in the group photo is not old, but looks gentle and refined, a bit like Qi Xing.In other words, Qi Xing's family of three seemed to be somewhat similar.In other words, Qi Jinshu and Shi Ying look very good as husband and wife.

Aunt Lu in the photo looks a bit abrupt.

Her smile was even a little nervous.

But why would Aunt Lu be nervous when a couple who knew each other took a group photo?
Lin Yue gently rubbed the thumb and index finger of his right hand.This is her habit.Whenever she designs the plots in the book, she will constantly knead like this.

This time Jiao Qingqing didn't speak anymore, her eyes were fixed on Lin Yue.

In an ordinary group photo, can she see the flowers?
Hmph, pretending to be mysterious.

After reading the group photo, Lin Yue's eyes swept over the furnishings in the house one by one.

Everything is neatly organized, and it can be seen that Aunt Lu is a very diligent person who likes to clean up the house.There is an antique shoe cabinet in the entrance, and two pairs of slippers for a man and a woman are placed under the shoe cabinet.

The slippers were brushed clean, but the only difference was that the host's shoes were new, while the soles of the hostess's shoes were slightly worn.The host's slippers may have just been bought, and the host disappeared.

Lin Yue's eyes fell on the pots of succulents on the windowsill. Although they lacked the care of the owner these days, the succulents still grew very well.

At this time, Jiao Qingqing walked over, picked up the small and exquisite watering can on the window sill, and watered the succulents.

Jiao Qingqing picked up the watering can, and Lin Yue discovered that there was an ashtray behind the watering can.The shape of the ashtray is very ordinary, but it is also wiped clean, as if the hostess is cleaning everything for the hostess all the time.

Lin Yue took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Qi Xing: "Does Uncle Qi smoke?"

After the message was sent, it soon showed that the other party was typing, but it was too late to finish.

After a long while, Qi Xing sent two words hesitantly: "Come on..."

After this message, Qi Xing said again: "When he came to visit me before, I could smell a faint smell of tobacco on his body. But I never saw him smoking in front of me."

Lin Yue opened the French windows, and fresh, cold air rushed in.

It rained last night and some leaves were blown onto the sun room which wasn't fully enclosed.

Next to several pots of fern-tailed sunflowers, there is a tea tray with a unique shape. In addition to the utensils for making tea, there is also an ashtray on the tea tray.

The tea tray, the utensils for making tea, and the ashtray were all wiped clean.

Two futons are placed on one side of the tea tray, as if obediently waiting for the owner to pamper them again.

This is where Aunt Lu and Uncle Qi took a group photo.

Like everything is the same, but there seems to be something different.

After Jiao Qingqing took care of the pots of succulents, she came out again, leaned aside, and looked at Lin Yue coldly.

She watched Lin Yue's eyes fall on the futon, and she never moved away for a long time.

Lin Yue couldn't find a clue.Only a smart person can tell what's wrong in a house.

Qi Jinshu left Aunt Lu long ago and went elsewhere.

Aunt Lu refused to accept Qi Jinshu's departure, and still imagined that Qi Jinshu would still stay by her side.All the furnishings in her house still retain the traces of Qi Jinshu's life, and she is reluctant to put them away.

If Lin Yue had a thicker skin, walked into the bedroom and opened the closet door, he would find that there were only the mistress's clothes in the closet.

Jiao Qing's eyes fell on the Pteris kui, revealing an imperceptible smile.

In fact, she didn't know where Qi Jinshu went, she was just cheating on Qi Xing.

As long as Aunt Lu is not awake and still living in her imagination, no one will know that she is cheating on Qi Xing.

Lin Yue finally moved his eyes away from the futon, and looked at Jiao Qingqing.

Jiao Qing looked at Lin Yue: "Shopkeeper Lin, what's the matter, did you find any clues? If you can't find it, don't force it."

Lin Yue walked back into the room and closed the French windows: "I've finished reading. Do you want to go together?"

"No need." Jiao Qing said.

Lin Yue didn't invite her again, and left the small courtyard by himself.

In the village, there are many structures like the small courtyard rented by Aunt Lu. The rhythm of City X is not fast, so it is very suitable to rent a small courtyard for locals here and live leisurely every day.

Some are like homestays.

Lin Yue walked to an activity center for the elderly, where a fire was being lit, and many elderly people took their children to warm up around the fire, chatting about the world.There seemed to be a smell of roasted sweet potatoes in the air.

Everything is peaceful.

Lin Yue walked up and greeted with a smile: "Good afternoon, uncle and aunt. Excuse me, does Qi Jinshu live near here?"

"Oh! Old Qi, he lives in the house in front of him, 50 meters ahead, and the small courtyard on the right is his. Maybe he is tending his flowers and plants in the courtyard at this time."

"Ah, this old relative is just liked by girls."

"If you are like Lao Qi, I like you too."

"Hey! I don't want you to like me."

"Aunt Lu over there used to come to see him every day, but she hasn't seen anyone these days."

"You don't know that. A few days ago, the youngest son of Lao Niu's family drove his farm truck to transport steel bars and hit Aunt Lu's car! I heard that he will pay a lot of money."

"The old cow turned gray overnight!"

"Then there are two young people in Aunt Lu's car. The male one is seriously injured. I don't know if he can be saved..."

The sound of discussion gradually faded away, Lin Yue strolled around the courtyard and walked outside the small courtyard.

At first glance, it seemed as if he had returned to Aunt Lu's courtyard again.

It's just that the sun room in Aunt Lu's small courtyard is on the east side of the small courtyard, while the sun room in the small courtyard in front of me is on the west side of the small courtyard.

Among several tall phoenix plants, there was a man wearing a gray Chinese tunic suit, squatting on the ground, loosening the soil for the flowers in the flowerpot with a small shovel.

He was concentrating, and Lin Yue stood outside the small courtyard for a while, but he didn't look up.

But Lin Yue still recognized that this man was the man in the photo in Aunt Lu's house.

In the photo album of Qi Xing's mobile phone, there is also a photo of Qi Jinshu's ID.

Lin Yue knocked on the courtyard door: "Hello, is this the home of Mr. Qi Jinshu Qi?"

The man raised his head, stood up, and walked towards Lin Yue.

With doubts on his face, he asked Lin Yue: "I am Qi Jinshu, who are you?"

As he got closer, Lin Yue could clearly see a red mole on the corner of the man's right eye.

Lin Yue couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and introduced himself: "Hi Uncle, my name is Lin Yue, and I'm your son Qi Xing's girlfriend."

Qi Jinshu's eyes became more and more puzzled: "Qi Xing? Who is Qi Xing? I don't know him."
