Chapter 197 Doubt

"Yes, we can report to the officials." Ji Qingyue's mouth curled up, "Cousin, thank you for reminding me."

"what?"

Ji Qingyue smiled and said: "The boy didn't see the murderer's face, so he didn't know who the murderer was, but the murderer must have known the abbot, otherwise how could the other party have been caught."

"I heard from the boy that the abbot turned around and was killed when he was talking to the other party. The other party moved so fast that it must have been determined to kill him."

"Although it's a pity that the boy couldn't see the other party's face, it's not necessarily a bad thing for us."

"But we can't be the ones who reported to the officials. It's better to let the people in the temple take the initiative to report the case, so that we can follow the opportunity of the government to investigate the case and find out who the abbot talked to last night, that is, who the murderer is."

"The most important thing is that now that the host is dead, the clues we just got from the old lady are useless. I always feel that something is wrong with this matter. Maybe it's what we want to know if we find out."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements."

Hearing what she said, Zhou Zhiyuan understood what she meant. They instinctively had something to do with Shun Niang, but they killed people directly... This is not a house fight, this is real murder. Such a thing has a big impact on them.

Zhou Zhiyuan ordered the people below to do it, but the news brought back was that Xinghua Temple did not report the crime, and said that the abbot passed away, which was clearly a knife wound, but the people in the temple confirmed that the abbot committed suicide because they found the suicide note from the abbot .

When Zhou Zhiyuan told Ji Qingyue the news, her eyelids twitched slightly, and a chill could not stop feeling in her heart.

"Sister Qingyue, that murderer... even pretended to be at the scene."

"How about now?"

Ji Qingyue frowned, realizing that this person was very ruthless and thoughtful, and she couldn't deal with it in a short while, but she still comforted her: "Cousin, don't be afraid, with me here, no one can hurt you."

The two were talking, when a maid came outside, Madam Du went out to listen to the news, then walked in quickly, and said with a smile:
"Biao girl, Master Biao is here to see you. It's in the outer hall. I'll take you there."

"Father?" Ji Qingyue was a little surprised, thinking that her failure to speak clearly made her handsome father worry, so she hurriedly went out with Madam Du and entered the hall, seeing Ji Chenyuan's back, she retreated a little guilty: "Father, How did you come?"

"Come and see you, I don't worry about you being here alone."

"And I came last night. I know you're fine, so I came to you now."

"Then where do you live?" Ji Qingyue was a little surprised.

"Look for Shopkeeper Song for a night." Ji Chenyuan waved his hand nonchalantly, he didn't care about these details, now seeing that Ji Qingyue was intact and nothing happened, he was relieved at the same time, He reached out and tapped her on the head: "Ninny, next time you go like this knowing that there is danger, dad will be angry."

"Father, I was wrong, I will never do this again..." Ji Qingyue raised her hand to promise.

Ji Chenyuan stroked his beard in satisfaction: "It turned out to be so, then come back with me now."

"It's too dangerous for you to stay here. Even if you want to protect your cousin and niece, just let dad come. You go back to grow vegetables and hunt. These house fights are not suitable for you."

Ji Chenyuan pulled her away and wanted to leave, Ji Qingyue quickly stopped, and pulled him back: "Father, no, father, listen to me first."

"Hmph, don't stop." Ji Chenyuan thought of what he had found, and now his heart ached. It was also his daughter who was stupid. Good luck, otherwise he would have been swallowed alive by that person long ago.

"Father, I can't leave now." Ji Qingyue's strength was stronger than Ji Chenyuan's, once he pulled hard, Ji Chenyuan didn't move for a long time.

He frowned, looked at her, saw her stubborn appearance, and said patiently: "Ninny, you are really not safe here. If something happens to you, Dad will die of grief."

"No matter how good other people are, they are not my daughters. I only care about your safety. If you obey me, go back with me. Daddy will cook something delicious for you."

Ji Chenyuan was so anxious that he even said the wrong thing, Ji Qingyue couldn't help but look at him carefully: "Father, do you know something, otherwise why do you keep pulling me back."

Ji Chenyuan coughed lightly, shook his head: "No, it's nothing."

"Father~" Ji Qingyue took his hand and acted coquettishly, Ji Chenyuan hurriedly coaxed: "Ninny, you go back first, Dad will settle the matter here."

"Father, tell me what's going on first, or I'll feel uneasy even if I go back."

"And I know medical skills. She will be safe by staying with my cousin."

"Father, just listen to me this time, okay?" Ji Chenyuan couldn't bear Ji Qingyue's coquettish appearance, looked at her, struggled for a long time, and then nodded reluctantly: "Yes, but you have to listen to me .”

"Okay." Ji Qingyue nodded with a smile.

Seeing her happy look, Ji Chenyuan couldn't help sighing, but the doting eyes were gone.

Ji Chenyuan said: "I checked the identity of Aunt Shun, she is not a simple person."

"Her mother is from the Yi family, but her father couldn't find out, but I found out that his father abandoned her mother. She lived a miserable life since she was a child. When her mother married another, she was abandoned and wandered all the time. , came to the town, and finally settled here."

"Although she had a miserable life, she has a very rich experience. From an abandoned daughter that everyone despises to the current aunt of the Gu family, it is definitely not something that ordinary people can do."

"What's more, she was once sold into a tavern, and no one could get out of it. However, not long after she disappeared, the tavern was burned down."

"Everyone inside is dead, but some people say that most of them are alive and there is no struggle, which means someone deliberately set the fire."

"When she comes back to the town, she has no background but directly lives in a nice yard, at least 50 taels. There are usually some hooligans who want to bully her, but for such a weak woman, most of those people dare not offend her overnight. .”

"Later, I found out that she did have some tricks, and it was not as simple as it seemed on the surface."

"I also checked the source of her poison, but I couldn't find the source. Although she can use poison, the Yi clan is in the south, far away from here, and she can't make it without raw materials."

"I was worried, so I checked again. I checked two years ago, but I couldn't find it, but I already have some news, and I will have news in two days."

"Ninny, the Chinese New Year will be tomorrow..." Ji Chenyuan sighed sadly.

Ji Qingyue didn't expect to encounter such a thing during the New Year's Eve, but it was impossible for her to let it go.

Thinking about the temple, Ji Qingyue thought for a while and asked, "Father, do you think she has anything to do with the abbot of Xinghua Temple?"

 The update is complete~~Good night, little cuties.
