evil little innocent baby

Chapter 96 The Man in the Picture

Mu Lengrui took out his camera and took pictures of the car, all parts of which were clearly photographed.

"Why didn't I realize that you were carrying a camera?" Dai Yuxiao blurted out seeing his professional look with a serious expression, and actually regretted it just after asking.

Sure enough, Mu Lengrui gave him another hard look: "Only a fool would not think of it. To search for clues, a camera is of course necessary. This car may be an important clue in the future. Of course we have to take pictures, stupid!"

After taking the photos, they walked to the door of the beautiful house. The hall door, like the courtyard door, was not locked at all. They pushed lightly, and the door creaked and opened in response.

The strange thing is that although the car outside was covered with thick dust, there was no one inside, but it was spotless. Didn’t the old lady say that no one lived there at all, and her mother’s family moved to the mountain?This room is spotless, someone must have cleaned it, who is still thinking about cleaning this room?

The furniture in the room is all solid wood furniture, exuding a quaint atmosphere, while the rooms on the first floor have roughly the same furnishings, except for the furniture, which are some yellowed calligraphy and paintings mounted in wooden frames and hung on the walls.

On the second floor, it is the master's bedroom and the guest room, with simple solid wood beds. The beds are all empty, no one lives there, so naturally there is no bedding.

On the third floor, except for a bedroom and a study room, the other rooms are empty and there is nothing.

There are still many books on the bookshelves in the study. There is no dust on the bookshelves, and the books are clean. It seems that the study has been cleaned regularly, otherwise it would not be so clean.

The two walked around the study and stopped in front of a portrait, which was a sketch, a sketch of a woman.

The background of the painting is the sea with thick lines and slightly curly waves. From the woman's long hair waving, one can see the blowing sea breeze.The woman, wearing a plain dress, was playing a violin intently, looking gentle and delicate.

"This should be your mother...it really looks like you..." Mu Lengrui pursed his lips and looked at the woman in the painting.

"Well, yes, she was so young and beautiful back then..." Dai Yuxiao frowned in thought, her curly eyelashes were wet with the liquid in her eyes, she didn't know who drew this painting for her mother, The painting is so vivid, it must have put a lot of effort into it.

The woman in that painting is expressive and lifelike, and that kind of artistic conception cannot be captured by a camera.

Both of them were attracted by the painting, and they breathed carefully, as if the painting had been infused with a soul. If they were not careful, the soul would be disturbed by them.

They were staring at the painting in a daze, when the door of the study opened with a "squeak", and a man came in, a short man, a little shorter than Dai Yuxiao, and chubby, like a short man. winter melon.

"Ah!" The man was frightened, as if he didn't expect that there was someone in the study.

"Ah!" Dai Yuxiao also exclaimed at the same time, because she was disturbed when she was concentrating, she exclaimed instinctively.

And that short wax gourd was much more surprised than she was, with a look of fear on his face: "Ah! Shen Mengqin, I didn't kill you! It wasn't me! Don't come to me...ah..."

The short winter melon shook his hands in a panic while talking, looked at Dai Yuxiao in horror, backed up step by step, then opened the door fiercely, ran out quickly, and fled as fast as a ghost.

Mu Lengrui glanced at Dai Yuxiao, his expression frightened, he quickly opened the door, and chased after her.

No matter how fast the short winter melon's legs are, how could it be faster than Mu Lengrui whose legs are nearly twice as long as his? After running a few steps, Mu Lengrui grabbed the skirt of his clothes.

The man struggled to get free, and in a panic, even took off his coat, tore off his coat and continued to run.

Mu Lengrui threw the coat in his hand aside, not in a hurry, he took a few quick steps, and walked directly in front of the short winter melon, blocking his way.

Suddenly a person much taller than him appeared in front of him blocking the way, the short winter melon panicked, opened the corridor window and wanted to jump out.

"You jump if you are not afraid of falling to your death! This is the third floor! If you don't fall to your death, you will be disabled at most!" Mu Lengrui's cold eyes, sharp as a knife, made people feel chilled.

Dwarf Wintermelon hesitated for a moment, but stopped, with nowhere to escape, and sat slumped on the ground.

Mu Lengrui's eyes were gloomy and cold: "Go back to the study, I have something to ask you!"

"Don't go, don't go, there are ghosts in there, there are ghosts..." Dwarf Winter Melon waved his hands in panic, sat on the ground and rubbed back.

"Don't go? I'll turn you into a ghost right now!" Mu Lengrui said viciously, with a cold tone and cold eyes that could penetrate a person's chest.

"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I'll go, I'll go..." Short winter melon scrambled back to the door of the study, he was even more afraid of becoming a ghost.

Dai Yuxiao folded her arms and waited at the door. She knew that this person would definitely not be able to escape from Mu Lengrui's palm.

When the man saw her, he was frightened again, but when he saw the sunlight shining in on Dai Yuxiao's body, dragging out a long shadow, he stabilized himself after confirming whether Dai Yuxiao was a human or not.

This short winter melon ran away in a hurry as if seeing a ghost when seeing her. Could it be that she was regarded as Shen Mengqin in the painting?However, why he said that he didn't kill him, there must be something strange in it.

Dwarf Wintermelon looked at her, then at the painting, with an unbelievable expression.

"You know Shen Mengqin? Tell me, what's your relationship with her?" Mu Lengrui asked coldly.

"I know her, but she wasn't killed by me, it wasn't me, don't look for me!" Shorty Donggua waved her hands quickly, Dai Yuxiao and Mu Lengrui are two people with extraordinary clothes and outstanding temperament. , he can't be provoked.

"You didn't kill her? How do you know she was killed? Who killed her, tell me!" Since the short winter melon said that Shen Mengqin was killed, he must know something hidden.

Ordinary people know that she died in a car accident. This man actually said that she was murdered. From him, he must be able to know something. Thinking of this, Mu Lengrui's eyes became even colder, as fierce as Hell Yama Stare at this dwarf winter melon.

"It's really not me, it's really not me... Sir, please let me go..." The short winter melon fell to his knees with a plop, begging for mercy repeatedly.

"It's not you, who is it?" Mu Lengrui saw that this short winter melon was so timid, he took out a dagger out of nowhere, with a cold light shining in the sun, he swayed in front of the short winter melon, closing his frightened eyes fundus.

"I don't know who it is, I really don't know..." Short winter melon looked at the dangling dagger, trembling all over.

"I don't know? Huh?" Mu Lengrui flicked the dagger on his face a few times, and a few fine hairs fell down.

"I really don't know, sir, if I know it, I must say, I really don't know, sir, you still don't know even if you kill me..." The little wax gourd didn't dare to move, trembling all over, but his facial expression was extremely stiff, I was afraid that if I accidentally pulled a nerve, the dagger would mercilessly leave a mark on his face.

"Then how do you know that she was killed? Huh?" Mu Lengrui gestured back and forth on his face, trying the blade.

"It's Shen Mengqin's elder brother, who entrusted me to clean here every day, but in the first few days, he set off a lot of firecrackers in the courtyard, saying that he died of accidental accidents, to ward off evil spirits, while setting off firecrackers, he said, Mengqin, don't look for him , He didn't kill him..." Due to excessive tension, the short winter melon's facial muscles convulsed reflexively, and his face looked distorted.

"Shen Mengqin's brother? Set off firecrackers?" Mu Lengrui pondered for a moment, this sentence is really thought-provoking, he didn't kill him, he didn't kill him, don't look for him, don't look for him, could it be Shen Mengqin's brother Shen Mengyuan Know more secrets, know that his sister was killed?

No wonder they want to move to the mountains to live, such a beautiful house can not be empty, and it is precisely because of this, this yard is so beautiful but no one dares to make a move, because they are afraid of attracting evil spirits and bringing disasters.

"Hmm...he also invited a mage to perform deeds to save the dead..." Shorty Donggua nodded again and again, seeing that Mu Lengrui's expression eased a little, his heart sank back into the distance, and his tense facial expression relaxed.

"If you were asked to clean the room every day, why didn't you wipe that car?" Mu Lengrui was referring to the car in the yard that was covered in thick dust. If it was cleaned every day, it would not be covered in such a thick dust.

"He didn't let me touch that car. He said it was unlucky... I thought he was afraid that I would damage the car, so he never moved it..." Dwarf Wintermelon's eyes were erratic.

"When did you start cleaning these rooms? And when did you see that car?" Mu Lengrui asked two key questions.

"I heard that after Shen Mingqin's death, her brother and her old mother moved to live in the mountains, so I was asked to clean these rooms. After I came, I saw the cars in the courtyard, but he didn't let me move..." Dwarf Winter Melon The look in her eyes has been floating back and forth on Dai Yuxiao.

Based on this calculation, if the words of the little winter melon are true, that car appeared before and after Shen Mingqin's accident, and her brother said that this car was unlucky, then this car must have something to do with that car accident.

"You're talking nonsense!" Mu Lengrui's dagger approached him again, his eyes were fierce, because he saw the erratic eyes of the short winter melon, maybe there was deceit.

"No, really not, sir..." Shorty Winter Melon's nerves, which had been relaxed just now, suddenly tensed up again.

"Then why are you looking at her? Huh?" Mu Lengrui rubbed the dagger against his skin.

"I... I think she looks too much like Shen Mengqin... So, take a closer look..." The little wax gourd said submissively, and looked away, not daring to look at Dai Yuxiao again.

Mu Lengrui and Dai Yuxiao looked at each other. It seemed that this man knew only this.

But the harvest was not bad, at least he knew that this car was indeed closely related to Shen Mingqin's death, and he could be sure that Shen Mengqin was killed by someone, not just a simple car accident.

"Do you know where Shen Mingqin's elder brother lives on the mountain?" Mu Lengrui continued to ask. Shorty Donggua often meets Shen Mengqin's elder brother, so he should know where he is on the mountain.

"I don't know, he just goes down the mountain regularly to give me money, and I'm not sure where he lives..." Dwarf Winter Melon shook his head.

"Can you take us up the mountain? We won't treat you badly." Dai Yuxiao, who hadn't spoken for a long time, interjected that if there were locals to lead the way, it would be more effective.

Dwarf Winter Melon waved his hands again and again: "No, no, there are poisonous snakes on the mountain, and we locals don't want to go up the mountain..."

Dai Yuxiao frowned, only then did she know that there were poisonous snakes on the mountain, but her mother's brother and old mother couldn't live with such a beautiful house, so they wanted to go to the mountain where shopping and transportation were inconvenient and there were poisonous snakes infested live, why?

"How often do you and Shen Mengqin's brother Shen Mengyuan meet?" Mu Lengrui thought, if the time interval is relatively short, they can wait here instead of taking the risk of going up the mountain.

"We met at No.15 every month, and he gave me money as a reward. We have been No.15 every month for so many years." Dwarf Winter Melon replied.

"NO.15? Did you guys meet a few days ago?" Dai Yuxiao regretted that if she had come a few days earlier, she would have been able to meet her mother's brother directly.

"Yes, after he gave me the money, he left without saying much. He said that my mother was not feeling well, and he wanted to go back early."

"Okay, let's go." Mu Lengrui waved his hand, that's all he could know from this man's mouth.

As if the short winter melon was granted amnesty, he quickly got up and ran away, not daring to turn his head back.
