I'm a detective for Dongchang

Chapter 207 Confession (Part [-])
Li Sheng was keenly aware that the disappearance of Xianglianju was probably related to the murder case.

But, how did they find out about their street department?Staring at the duty list on the tenth day of the lunar new year, he fell into deep thought...

Cheng Fengshou.

However, he, Cheng Fengshou and the other two had been playing with the sieve that day, and Cheng Fengshou hadn't left here until midnight.

In his place is worth...

There was a layer of sweat on Li Sheng's forehead. As the supervisor here, the management of the personnel on duty was chaotic, and the person who came was from the East Factory. If something really went wrong that night, he would be dismissed. The whole family...how can this be done.

"Commander Li?" Lu Xizhi stretched out his hand in front of him, reminding him.

"Ah... this subordinate, this subordinate deserves to die." Li Sheng knelt on the ground with a thud, "Lu Ji forgives the crime."

Seeing the sudden kneeling of their leading brother, the other strong men were all frightened and foolish, but they all knew that something must have happened, so they knelt down in unison.

Lu Xizhi looked at Bei Xue, who shook his head at her, expressing that she didn't know the current situation either.

"Commander Li, I just want to know who is in charge of Xianglianju on the night of the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, as long as you know the rest of the affairs yourself." Guessing that there may be dereliction of duty, she further explained the purpose of her visit.

When this question was mentioned, Li Sheng's gaze suddenly deepened, but soon he bypassed Lu Xizhi, and noticed the person pushing a cart in at the gate.

Bei Xue followed Li Sheng's line of sight and noticed an old man limping and pushing a cart into the yard.

When Lu Xizhi heard the voice, he also looked over, and when he saw it, he froze in place. The old man was wearing a ragged coat, dark red, with a frayed collar.And one of his legs seemed to be lame, and he was pushing the heavy dung truck in an extremely uncoordinated posture. His eyes were dull and exhausted, and he was obviously struggling.

It really is him!Half a year ago, the old man who covered her entering the yamen.

The old man raised his eyes to see them, without much surprise in his eyes, and then continued to push the cart and walked slowly towards the back of the main room.

While the old man was moving, Tu Gen bounced to avoid the cart, and there was disgust in his eyes that he couldn't hide.

It seems that the old man is not welcome and welcome here, what a pity...

Lu Xizhi felt a little heavy at the moment.

Lu Xizhi took two quick steps to catch up, while Bei Xue ordered the others to wait in the main room and not to approach.

Soon, Lu Xizhi stopped in front of the old man. The old man raised his head, looked at her fixedly, and didn't speak.

Next second

Under Bei Xue's shocked gaze, Lu Xizhi smiled very naturally and said, "Uncle, my cousin is here to see you."

At this moment, the old man finally had an expression on his face, and he looked left and right at her in surprise, and sized her up.

His dirty face turned slightly red because he recognized the person coming, he let go of the handlebar with both hands, pointed at Lu Xizhi, opened his mouth, revealing a set of black and yellow teeth that were not connected.

Just when Bei Xue thought the old man was going to rush up to grab Lu Xizhi, the old man straightened up calmly and cleared his throat slowly.

"cough."

Following this ordinary sound, the excited look on the old man's face just now disappeared, and instead a look of indifference filled the air.

He seemed to recognize the person in front of him.

Seeing his actions like this, Lu Xizhi knew that this was a successful recognition, and said with a smile, "It really is you, cousin."

"Today's attire looks like that." The old man complained.

Hearing these words, Lu Xizhi almost petrified, as if he was far from expecting the old man to mention his poor attire back then.Is she shameless~?

"That's it, people have to improve, hehe~~hehe..." She laughed awkwardly and rubbed her nose.

"I'm not here to meet relatives."

……

Lu Xizhi always felt that this old man was not as depressed as he saw in front of him, "I didn't have a chance to thank you before, but I just happened to be here on business. Coincidentally, I met you."

The old man was silent.

"I don't know what to call it?"

"Old white head."

Ha, the name is easy to remember.

Beixue coughed suddenly, and then said sorry, Lu Xizhi turned to look at her in doubt, only to see Beixue's face twitching, and then suddenly understood.

"Old Baitou, let's take this car first..."

The old man squinted at Beixue, then pursed his lips and pushed the cart away.

The two followed behind.

"Miss Lu, I'm sorry, I couldn't hold back just now."

"It's okay, vomit..." Lu Xizhi supported the tree next to him, and began to wail and vomit.

When they got to the backyard, there was no one around. Bei Xue listened carefully, and then led Lu Xizhi towards a secluded path.

Not long after, I saw a small wooden house. The old man was working on something with his back to them. Standing in the room, he felt that someone was coming. He didn't turn around and said firmly, "It seems that you have come to find me specially. .”

Lu Xizhi looked at him, and the turbulent waves that arose in her heart just now disappeared, and turned into a complete calm. She no longer hid it and said, "We are indeed here to find you."

He said, "How did you find this?"

The old man didn't ask any questions, as if he already knew why they came.

Lu Xizhi said: "Xianglianju is the place where the ladies of the government go in and out. There must be special guards. Strangers can't get in at all, let alone go in and kill people. Therefore, based on this point, the scope of the investigation has been narrowed down a lot. Once the suspect is identified, the only thing that needs to be investigated next is the murderer's motive. First, Bilian's disappearance is not well known, how did the murderer know that she is dead, and it has something to do with Aunt Li and Wang Hexi What about it? Second, why did the murderer avenge Bi Lian? What is his relationship with Bi Lian? Third, I have already solved half of this point. The remaining half of the doubt is that Bilian has disappeared, how did her shoes be found?"

The old man took a sip of his tea, but didn't answer.

Lu Xizhi went on to say: "At first I didn't doubt you, because Aunt Li is strong, and ordinary people can't hang her up to pretend to commit suicide, unless...the other party is also Kong Wu, who is used to physical strength, Or..." She paused, and glanced at a red-tasseled spear leaning in an inconspicuous corner of the room, "Or, the other party is a martial arts practitioner."

The old white-headed man took a sip of his tea, pretending to be indifferent.

"On that day, I asked Bei Xue to follow you, so I was sure, you have martial arts skills."

Hearing this, the old white head put down the teacup in his hand, as if caught in some kind of memory, and said slowly: "The first time I saw you, I felt a kind of déjà vu, so I helped you."

"Unexpectedly, you really have the same intelligence and wisdom as her."

After finishing speaking, he spread his hands, "You are right, I killed that old bastard in Xianglianju, and I also poisoned that Wang Hexi, but it's a pity that I didn't let her die."

"I'll go with you."

Lu Xizhi was surprised that he admitted the whole thing so readily, and was willing to go with them so simply.

But her purpose was not to take him away like this.

She said, "Old Whitehead, I think you might need a place to hide."

The old white head looked at the two of them in confusion, squinted his eyes slightly, and didn't answer. After a long time, he held back a sentence: "What do you want to do?"

Lu Xizhi said: "Old Baitou, have you ever thought that what you know is very likely to be the same as the case I am investigating now?"

The old man stood up and stared at her closely...
