The wife of the power minister's family

Chapter 221 Ghost kills people

Zhao Shaohua thought and subconsciously looked at Xu Jing.

Xu Jing said: "It is indeed possible that the murderer's condition is the same as Qingyun, but it does not rule out that he is very cautious. In Qingyun's case, I also saw that Qingyun did not check the injuries on his palms after falling, so I further suspected that Qingyun was the murderer. .

However, the first two cases clearly occurred inside the Imperial Academy, but the third case was found outside, which is somewhat intriguing.Moreover, there was only more than a month and a day between the first case and the second case, but almost two months between the second case and the third case. From a certain perspective, these two points They all point to one thing..."

Zhao Shaohua and Zhao Jingming didn't expect the issue of the time between the cases. After hearing this, they quickly asked: "What's the matter?"

"As the case happens, the vigilance of the students in the Imperial College will definitely become higher and higher, and it will become more and more difficult for the murderer to kill him. I guess he later committed the crime outside the Imperial College, and it took almost two months before he killed the third person. Personally, it's because it's hard for him to find an opportunity to strike.

and……"

Xu Jing paused and said: "The murderer obviously knew the environment and situation in the Imperial College very well. The first two cases were able to be completed so smoothly. He should be from the Imperial College, and he was very familiar with the temperaments of the three deceased people." and habits, he should have made a special trip to get to know them or followed them for a period of time before committing the crime."

Zhao Jingming and Zhao Shaohua both looked at Xu Jing in confusion.

Based on the information Zhao Jingming gave her, she actually deduced so many things!
Zhao Jingming couldn't help but said excitedly: "Then should we go to the Imperial College immediately to investigate?"

"Do not."

Xu Jing shook her head, "Go to Guixiang Yuan first. The case in Guixiang Yuan happened five days ago. There will be more clues to be found."

Zhao Jingming was stunned, "You are a woman, how can you go to Guixiang Courtyard?"

On the side, Zhao Shaohua's eyes were already shining, and he tried his best to suppress some excitement and said: "What's so difficult about this! Just leave this matter to me!"

She had long wanted to visit that place known as the paradise for men!

They returned to Xu Jing's house first, and soon, two handsome men with rich brocade clothes and fair faces appeared in front of Zhao Jingming. Zhao Shaohua was wearing a light purple robe with lapels and narrow sleeves, holding a fan in his hand. He gently tapped the palm of his left hand, gave Zhao Jingming a wink and said, "Well, we can go in like this."

Zhao Jingming: "..."

Although he is often said to be a fool by his family, the more foolhardy people are clearly here, okay!

What's more, looking at the faces of Sister Axi and Madam Xu, even though they are wearing men's clothes, anyone with a bit of vision can tell that they are women at a glance!

Looking at Zhao Shaohua's enthusiastic expression, Zhao Jingming, who was familiar with his sister's temperament, said in a somewhat false tone: "Sister Axi, if we drag Madam Xu to a place like that, Yanci will kill us..."

Not to mention Yan Ci, even if my brother-in-law knew about it, I'm afraid he would have to die to apologize!

Zhao Shaohua narrowed his eyes suddenly and said calmly: "How do I remember that you were the one who begged A Jing to investigate the case? If you don't want us to go to Guixiang Court like this, go and persuade that Wang Qilang to let A Jing be upright. Let’s join them in investigating the case.”

That's even more impossible!
If he could do it, he would have done it long ago. In fact, in order to dig out some information from Dali Temple, he had already used all his strength.

Thinking of Song Jijiu's extremely tired face, Zhao Jingming gritted his teeth and said, "Just go, I will protect you to the death!"

Xu Jing: "..."

There is no need to be so tragic.As far as she knew, because the folk customs in Dachu were relatively open, there were many women who disguised themselves as men and went out to play, so she could often see them.

But there should be relatively few women going to that kind of place.

Several people soon arrived at Guixiang Yuan. As one of the most luxurious and high-end flower buildings in Xijing, Guixiang Yuan has a very luxurious appearance and is three stories high.

Flower houses like this usually only open in the afternoon. When they passed by, not long after Guixiangyuan opened, there were already people coming and going at the door. It can be imagined that if it were later, it would be crowded.

Before getting off the carriage, Zhao Jingming whispered: "Due to the case, Guixiang Courtyard was closed for three days to cooperate with the case. It only reopened two days ago, and there are not as many customers as before. However, this is convenient for our investigation. "

The entrance of Guixiang Yuan is not like other flower buildings where there are a group of women looking for customers, but there are only two expressionless nurses standing there. When they saw Xu Jing and Zhao Shaohua, they just looked at them one more time, but they didn't say what.

As soon as the three of them entered, a pretty young woman in a cool pink dress walked up quickly and said with a smile on her face: "Oh, here are three handsome gentlemen. What do you want the three gentlemen to be?" Sit in the lobby, or just get a private room?"

Zhao Jingming glanced at Xu Jing calmly, and Xu Jing said quietly: "Just sit in the lobby."

They were here to investigate, so they naturally wanted to go to a crowded place.

The woman looked at them meaningfully and said with a smile: "Okay, three distinguished guests, please come here, and I will open a table for you closest to the table."

The situation inside was somewhat different from what Xu Jing thought.

Although it was still early, one-third of the tables in the hall on the first floor were already filled. There was a stage directly in front, on which women with the same cool clothes and beautiful appearance were dancing, and the sound of elegant music could be heard. Throughout the hall, people sitting in the hall were just drinking tea and chatting. Occasionally, there were one or two women sitting next to a few people, but they did not get involved directly. It seemed that they were just... chatting in a very serious manner?
The woman in pink was leading the way. Seeing Xu Jing and Zhao Shaohua's curious and puzzled expressions, she didn't know what they were thinking. She couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Our Guixiang Courtyard is not like those gaudy flower houses. They are all high-ranking officials, so that kind of thing cannot be done in public. Even if they fall in love with a lady, the guests will take her to the room and then do the blissful thing. Therefore, there are also some This distinguished young guest came to our Guixiang Courtyard to discuss matters."

Xu Jing looked suddenly enlightened.

I understand, he is what is commonly known as a polite scum.

The woman in front of her had obviously realized that she and Zhao Shaohua were women and was quite close to them. Xu Jing looked at her and asked directly: "I heard that a murder occurred here five days ago."

The woman was stunned and her face changed instantly, "Why did the guest suddenly say that?"

"Don't worry, I'm not here to cause trouble. I'm usually bored at home, so I went out with my sister to have some fun. I heard that the case was very strange, and the criminal hasn't been caught yet, so I asked out of curiosity. "

While talking, Xu Jing took out a piece of silver she had prepared in advance and put it into the woman's hand.

The woman's eyes lit up, and she quickly stuffed the broken silver into her sleeve pocket, looked around, then leaned close to Xu Jing and whispered: "Mother doesn't allow us to say more about that matter, please keep it a secret for me.

The case five days ago... was indeed very unusual. The deceased He Langjun was a frequent visitor to our place. He stayed in our private room all year round. Every time he went to rest in the Imperial College, he would come over. Every time he acted in the room When the time came, his servants and guards would guard the door, which was very grand, but because of this, his death five days ago... was very strange.

He Langjun's servants and guards said that they had been guarding the door all night. At [-] o'clock in the evening, He Langjun sent them to ask the waiter to bring a pot of new wine. Not long after that, The sound of men having sex and women having sex could be heard in the room.

Unexpectedly, the next day, they saw that He Langjun had not woken up, and no one answered the door, so they had no choice but to break in. However, He Langjun was... dead. No one knew how the prisoner got in, and how the prisoner got in. Why did he suddenly disappear, so many people are spreading the rumor that He Langjun was killed by the ghost in Guixiang Courtyard..."

 Thanks for everyone’s rewards and monthly support, a big case is coming~~
