Chapter 1285 Whose Room Is This
Shangguan Ruoli gave her a blank look, "It's dangerous, you just stay here and don't mess around!"

Ling Yao pouted, "Let me go and see it! It's such an exciting thing to solve a case. After hearing this, Jing Xi and Jing Yang will definitely envy me!"

Dongming Ziyu gave her a doting look, "When the time comes, you must be obedient and not mess around!"

"Thank you, Royal Father!" Ling Yao immediately stepped up and squeezed Dongming Ziyu's shoulders.

Shangguan Ruoli curled his lips in disgust, "Just get used to it!"

Ling Yao hurriedly ran behind Shangguan Ruoli and squeezed her shoulders, "Thank you, Queen Mother too!"

Shangguan Ruoli snorted pretending to be angry, but he couldn't hide the smile on his lips.

An hour later, An Yi who went to the lantern shop came back.

The report said that neither the owner nor the staff of the lantern shop knew that their "cowhide" lanterns were sold to the shop by a lantern craftsman.

And every time, it was the craftsman's son who delivered the goods, and they didn't know where the craftsman lived or what he looked like.

Finally, he secretly said: "The subordinate left someone in the lantern shop. If that person appears, he will be caught! If there is any change in the people in the shop, we will find out in time."

He took out a piece of paper from his pocket, "This is the portrait of the craftsman's son drawn based on the descriptions of the boss and Xiaoer."

Mo Wen took it, unfolded it, looked at the portrait, and frowned, "It's very ordinary, a very popular face."

Shangguan Ruoli looked at it, and said: "There are really no characteristics. I'm afraid there are a lot of them based on the portrait alone. Are there any other characteristics? Are there any moles on the face?"

Darkly said: "No, but the subordinates told them that if they recalled anything, they must report it truthfully."

Shangguan Ruoli said: "It seems that the opponent's anti-reconnaissance ability is quite strong."

Dongming Ziyu nodded, "Send this portrait to Chu Yanqing, and see if there is such a person at Qionghualin."

The portrait drawn according to the dictation has no sketching skills, and only a few strokes are drawn with a brush. It is really not recognizable, but Shangguan Ruoli still does not stop it. What if it is useful?

Ling Yao thought for a while and asked, "Father, what do you mean, the murderer is among those tourists?"

Dongming Ziyu said: "It may not be that the murderer is there, but the person who moved the corpse and hung the corpse should be there. Gu ordered people to block the Qionghua Forest immediately, and there are rapeseed fields around. If someone escapes from the Qionghua Forest, it will be very difficult. It is conspicuous, and will definitely be discovered by the guards."

Ling Yao said annoyedly: "If I had known, I would have let Xueqiu sniff them one by one."

Shangguan Ruoli patted his daughter on the shoulder, "Don't be upset, maybe that will scare the snake and make the real murderer escape. Since the murderer wants to provoke us, maybe he is watching in the dark."

Dongming Ziyu also said: "Since we know that the woman went directly to Chu Yanqing's house from the pier, and then went directly to Qionghua Forest from there, then the murderer can't escape."

Zi Yan came in and said that lunch is ready, everyone moved to the dining room to eat.

In the evening, without waiting for Dongming Ziyu to send someone to the yamen to inquire, Chu Yanqing came to report the situation on his own initiative.

"The identity of the deceased has been basically confirmed. It is the woman who disappeared last night."

Dongming Ziyu's eyes darkened, "Yes, yes, no, no, basically what do you mean?"

Chu Yanqing trembled in fright, and said: "The skin of the deceased has been stripped off, and the original appearance can no longer be seen. The family members of the deceased also identified them based on their body shape."

Dongming Ziyu frowned and said, "What did you say after the autopsy?"

Chu Yanqing thought for a moment, then carefully replied: "Wu Zuo's judgment on the age and height of the deceased is consistent with the missing woman."

Dongming Ziyu said coldly: "That's all? Is the cause of death excessive blood loss?"

Chu Yanqing shivered for a moment, her fingers trembling, "No, the deceased was skinned alive and died in pain..."

Like squeezing toothpaste, he said little by little, obviously, he didn't want to reveal more, and even deliberately avoided the murderer's brutality.

Dongming Ziyu asked again: "Have all the tourists in Qionghua Forest asked about it? Is there anyone suspicious?"

Chu Yanqing replied: "I have checked everything, and there is no suspicious person, but I left my address, and I will accept investigation and interrogation at any time."

Dongming Ziyu asked again: "Does the murderer have a direction?"

"No...no." Chu Yanqing leaned on the ground, making his expression hard to see.

Dongming Ziyu gave him a chance, if that's the case, don't blame him for being rude, and urged him to step down after a few words.

"Yes!" Chu Yanqing's eyes flickered slightly, and she kowtowed again: "Your Majesty, I thank the Eldest Princess for treating the dog's illness. Please forgive my wife for interrupting the Emperor's play."

Dongming Ziyu said lightly: "No problem!"

Chu Yanqing said again: "My nephew has already set off to Yuancheng this morning with the dog to look for Doctor Bai, and I will come to thank you then."

Dongming Ziyu's eyes darkened slightly, and he waved his hand, signaling him to stop talking nonsense and step back.

Only then did Chu Yanqing say a few more flattering words, and retreated.

Shangguan Ruoli came out from behind the screen, and said thoughtfully, "Madam Chu and Chu Jingye acted too quickly? I just confirmed my illness last night, so we set off this morning?"

Ling Yao came out with the snowball in her arms, "Chu Jingye has been shamed all his life, and he is regarded as an ominous monster by Chu Yanqing. He finally got hope, and there is nothing wrong with being anxious."

Shangguan Ruoli hugged his shoulders, and said thoughtfully: "I don't think it's that simple. It's a thousand miles away from Yuancheng, such a long journey, there must be a lot of servants accompanying me, food, clothing, and tools. No matter what, I have to prepare for a day or two, this night is too hasty, and Chu Jingye is not an emergency that is about to die."

Ling Yao said: "The queen mother's analysis seems reasonable."

Dongming Ziyu ordered Mo Wenwen: "You send people to investigate, no matter whether they are going to seek medical treatment or not, first get them under control."

Mo Wen led the order to go out and arrange for people to do this.

In the afternoon, the family wandered around in the other courtyard. In the evening, after dinner, Shangguan Ruoli was left to look after Ling Yu's little princess, and Dongming Ziyu took Ling Yao and Xueqiu to visit Zhizhou Mansion at night.

Shangguan Ruoli pouted secretly, feeling that he had fallen out of favor.

In the past, this matter was brought with me.well!

"Giggle" Lingyu played with the little wooden duck in the bathtub, and let out a crisp laugh.

Shangguan Ruoli kissed her wet face tenderly, and said with a smile, "Little fan, little candied fruit, why are you so cute?"

Ling Yu laughed out two small dimples, not to mention how cute it is.

Over there, Dongming Ziyu brought Ling Yao to the Chu Mansion, followed Xueqiu through the back door, walked through the two hanging flower doors, and arrived at a small remote courtyard.

There was no one in the small yard, and the lights in the house were dark.

Xueqiu scratched open the window and got in, followed by Dongming Ziyu and Ling Yao.

This is a bedroom. Judging by the style of the layout, it is a man's bedroom.

Ling Yao asked in a low voice: "Why is there no one? Whose room is this?"
