Dali Temple has his Lord Luo

Chapter 143 How can this happen
For what?After directly asking Qin Zhao, who was sitting opposite, Luo Ning realized that Lord Qin had been interested in him a long time ago.

"Master Qin, you hide so deeply!"

"It's you who are slow to warm up. Back then, you had a blind date with Yang Fan. Don't you know why I appeared now?"

Luo Ning then had an epiphany: "You know I'm on a blind date?"

Qin Zhao took Luo Ning's hand and rubbed it:

"I don't know, how could I run to stop you? However, no matter how twists and turns, we are finally together, Luo Ning, I will treat you well!"

The temperature in the room rose sharply, and Luo Ning was so happy and shy.

"What happened next? What happened to the case after I went to Wanzhou?" Qin Zhao thought of the case and asked again.

"Let me think about it, when Pan Xilian was sent to Dali Temple by Lu Baihu, she said something shocking. What do you think it was?"

Qin Zhao saw that Luo Ning was so mysterious:
"I really can't guess, the ending is very unexpected?"

"It's completely unheard of. Pan Xilian couldn't withstand the interrogation. She said that Yang Xiaoling was not missing. She took her children to play by the river that day. Yang Xiaoling accidentally slipped and drowned!"

what?
Qin Zhao and Luo Ning had settled so many cases, and it was the first time they heard such a reversal of the case.

Luo Ning patted Qin Zhao's arm to signal him to calm down, looked out the window, and spoke to Qin Zhao again.

Pan Xilian was taken to Dali Temple by hundreds of households. After a few words of questioning, Pan Xilian couldn't resist and said something to Luo Ning that shocked everyone.

"Master Luo, Xiaoling accidentally fell into the water and died!"

Not to mention Luo Ning, everyone in Dali Temple, including Song Qingsong, found it incredible.

"Then why did you say she was missing?"

"I was afraid that Yang Song would blame me and say that I didn't take good care of the child, so I told a lie!"

Luo Ning rubbed his eyebrows with two fingers, lowered his head and thought:
"Where did Yang Xiaoling slip and fall into the water?"

"Beside the Taihu Lake outside the city, near the north of the city, there is a corner called Huaxi Bay. Many people play there!"

"Did anyone see the child fall into the water at that time?"

"There's no one around?"

"It was only a moment after you fell into the water. You didn't shout for help? Didn't you save yourself?"

"I can not swim!"

Luo Ning was speechless.

"Do you remember when you fell into the water?"

"at dusk!"

“Didn’t your family have a wonton stall at that time?”

"That means it's not evening yet, because Yang Song comes back in the evening, and my father and I continue to set up a stall!"

Luo Ning felt something was wrong.

Afraid of being scolded by the child's father, he did not say anything about the child falling into the water. He only said that the child was missing. After the disappearance, the two of them continued to work.

This is unreasonable, the child is missing, do we have to look for the child?How can I continue to take care of business?

Pan Xilian's words puzzled Luo Ning.

So I asked Lu Baihu to arrest Yang Song for questioning again, but his confession was completely different from Pan Xilian's!Make the case even more puzzling.

Yang Song said:
"After preparing the materials the day before yesterday, I prepared to set up the stall. Because Pan Xilian took care of the children, I didn't notice anything unusual. When I closed the stall and went home in the evening, I realized that Yang Xiaoling was missing."

At this time, Yang Song held on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that the child would just go out to play by himself. He thought that Yang Xiaoling could go home by herself, and never thought that the child would disappear.

Everyone in the neighborhood knew Yang Xiaoling, and Yang Song believed that if the neighbors found her, they would definitely send Yang Xiaoling back.

He was so exhausted that he fell asleep. It wasn't until Xiaoling really didn't come back the next day that Yang Song got scared.

"How does Pan Xilian treat Yang Xiaoling on weekdays?"

"Okay, but Xiaoling and her mother are not too close."

"why is that?"

"Xiaoling likes her grandmother. She has often thought about going back in the past few months since she returned to Anyang City. Alas, it is better to let her stay in Yangjiazhuang all the time!"

Yang Song's eyes were full of sorrow and grief, which moved Luo Ning, who said otherwise!

"Does Pan Xilian prefer her younger brother Yang Xiaolong?"

Yang Song thought about it:

"Indeed, and it's not some preference, it's a special preference!"

At this moment, that doubt once again came to Luo Ning's mind.

"Yang Song, Pan Xilian just confessed that Yang Xiaoling was not missing. It was Pan Xilian who took her out to play and fell into the water and died!"

Yang Song couldn't believe it when he heard it:
"Sir, sir, you..."

how so?This honest man never imagined that this would be the case!
"How could it be?" Yang Song asked Luo Ning.

Luo Ning shook his head:
"I also have many doubts, but the case has not been revealed yet. Dali Temple will continue to investigate the truth tomorrow!"

Pan Xilian was taken to the Dali Temple Prison, while Yang Song was released home because there was no other evidence. He staggered, with his shoulders slumped and his figure hunched, and he suddenly looked ten years older.

Luo Ning frowned, confused by many aspects:
"Tomorrow, Meng Sizhi, let's go to Huaxi Bay to check, and then see if there are any clues in the portraits posted by Beizhen Fusi and Jingzhao Mansion!"

Luo Ning is also confused about the current status of the case. So Xiaoling was not abducted, but fell into the water and died?

Yang Xiaoling, is she dead now?
Qin Zhao was even more shocked when he heard this:
"How could it be such a result? Did he really fall into the water and die? It's not justified before and after!"

Luo Ning smiled:

"Sure enough, Mr. Qin was smart. We were also confused at the time. Fortunately, the people provided clues the next day, which immediately turned the case around!"

"Come and tell me what happened next!"

Luo Ning continued:
The next day, as soon as Luo Ning entered Dali Temple, Lu Yuan brought the results of Jin Yiwei's search yesterday. No trace of Yang Xiaoling was found in the shops along the road to Yang Song's house.

According to Pan Xilian, this is certain because Yang Xiaoling was brought to Huaxi Bay by her.

At this time, Meng Sizhi walked into Dali Temple and said hurriedly to Luo Ning:
"Lord Luo, I went to Yangjiazhuang yesterday, and Yang Xiaoling's grandmother provided a piece of information!"

"What is it?"

"Pan Xilian doesn't like this daughter. Yang Xiaoling has always wanted to return to Yangjiazhuang. Because of this issue, she often quarrels with Pan Xilian!"

"How far can a five-year-old child argue with his mother? Did Pan Xilian say it herself, or did her grandmother hear it?"

"Pan Xilian said it herself!"

"Meng Sizhi, Pan Xilian said yesterday that Yang Xiaoling fell into the water in Huaxi Bay. I still have doubts. Let's go out of the city and have a look!"

When they arrived at Huaxi Bay, Luo Ning and Meng Xiao were even more sure that Pan Xilian was lying.

Huaxi Bay is located in a fork of Taihu Lake. It has beautiful scenery and is not far from the official road. Many passers-by come and go, either watching the scenery or drinking tea and chatting. It is like a leisure resort.

According to Pan Xilian, she came here before evening, and Luo Ning put a lot of thought into trying it.

So he signaled to Meng Sizhi and threw a large stone directly into the lake.

With a splash, many passers-by stopped to watch.

Luo Ning shouted: "Someone fell into the water!"

Suddenly more than a dozen people ran over to the side. Meng Si stopped them all and then told the truth:
"I am Si Zhi of Dali Temple. We, adults, are investigating the case. Please be patient!"
