Chapter 61 Putting Pressure as Miss Mu Er

This time, is it really impossible to escape?
Mu Li looked at the words drawn round and round by the marker, and felt that her eyes were blurred. She closed her eyes and suppressed the feeling of dizziness.

"The eldest young lady is also a part of the Lin family. It is not so easy to find out anything directly from the Lin family. It is better to start with this young lady." Du Sheng made up his mind, "What do you think? Xiaowan."

Shu Wan had been sitting on the sofa without making a sound. Even after being called by Du Sheng, she still sat motionless, staring directly at the whiteboard, not knowing whether she didn't realize it or turned a deaf ear to it.

Mu Li silently shifted her gaze to Shu Wan. She was always wary of this unknown woman whose reasoning was comparable to that of an expert.

I don't know if it's because of her overthinking or her intuition, but she always feels that if the finger is pointed at "the young lady", then the victims of the previous case will be involved.

Shu Wan has such abilities. After all, she just mentioned "five years ago", which means that the case is still on her mind.

"Xiao Wan?" Du Sheng called again seeing her not moving for a long time.

Shu Wan finally let out a long sigh, straightened his waist, stretched out two slender fingers and pressed his forehead, "A lot of speculations flashed through my mind."

"What guess?"

"Who might this young lady be?"

"who is it?"

Shu Wan's pink lips parted, and he swallowed the words, "Let's start from here."

"Huh?" The transition was so fast that even Du Sheng couldn't keep up with the beat for a moment.

Shu Wan raised his wristwatch and said, "It's too late to go to Lihuaxi now, why don't you go to Lihuaxi tomorrow morning?"

Du Sheng nodded and fully agreed, "That's what I mean too. Although I haven't had much contact with the Lin family, it's not easy to be a housekeeper and the sixth young master. It must be more troublesome for the young and old in Lihuaxi. We have to be fully prepared. "

Shu Wan pursed her lips and blinked, but said nothing to Du Sheng's evaluation.

"Then let's make it like this first. See you at Lihuaxi at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. Ms. Mu, you come too." Du Sheng called the roll, and Mu Li nodded calmly, "There is another question."

The marker pen has been moved to the "back door car", and the doubts that have been temporarily shelved must be faced after all.

"Since there are indeed cars that appeared at the back door of Lin's house in the early morning, the investigation is inevitable. It's just this number—whether it's just these one hundred or more, I think I have to wait until I go to Qingluan Mountain again to decide .”

"If you want to go to Qingluan Mountain, do it as soon as possible." Shu Wan agreed.

Du Sheng put the cap on the marker pen, "I'll go now."

"Let me go, you better hurry up and investigate the basic information of these vehicles first. Anyway, you have to check, no matter whether it is troublesome or not."

Du Sheng nodded, still worried that Shu Wan would go alone, and wanted Mu Li to follow, but Shu Wan insisted on refusing.

"I'm used to investigating by myself." Shu Wan thought more, "Besides, I want her to investigate the vehicle with you, so she can learn a lot."

Unexpectedly, Shu Wan had such a plan, even Du Sheng was surprised, she really showed the appearance of being a teacher.

After another analysis, for this case, two lines of inquiry were sorted out.

The car that visited in the middle of the night, the young lady of the Lin family, as for the latter—if you want to inquire, you have to go through the level of the young master of the Lin family. Although you have never fought against that person, you have heard some rumors. prepared.

So the rest of the day was spent tracking down the former.

Shu Guan went to Qingluan Mountain alone to learn and investigate the information related to that car; while Mu Li followed Du Sheng to the vehicle management to check all kinds of license plates that have been recorded so far.

She and Du Sheng went in the same car, but Du Sheng received a call on the way, asking him to return to the bureau immediately, the plan was shelved.

Mu Li got out of the car on the side of the road, watched Du Sheng's car go away, and finally exhaled a heavy breath in his heart.

She doesn't want to admit it, but that's the truth. She made a move when recording the license plate. She deliberately wrote the number "1" with a stroke when she wrote it, making it look like "7".

She had to go back to Mu's house before Du Sheng and the others started to check the vehicles, but it was still working hours, so she had to go back to the office and wait until after get off work.

As for what to do while staying in the office?She no longer has time to think about the case and sort out the clues. She has to think about how to deal with the trip to Lihuaxi tomorrow morning.

……

The road construction at the back of Qingluan Mountain is not as good as that at the front. After all, the front is the front door, leading directly to the main gate of the Lin family. In addition to the spacious road paved with cement, there are green belts on both sides.

The back mountain is different, just like an ordinary mountain road, except that the cement paved road is covered with mountain soil on both sides.

Shu Wan parked the car at the intersection, got out of the car and walked along the mountain dirt on both sides of the road.

If, as Mu Li said, the murderer had planned long ago and waited until late at night to act, he must have hidden in a hidden place under the branches, so that the wheels would leave marks.

Only pray that the imprint was not washed away by the heavy rain.

After walking for a while, even though he found nothing, Shu Wan had swallowed a reassurance.

She took the test by the way.

First, I stepped on the soil hard, leaving footprints, and then took a bottle of water from the car, poured it directly on the footprints, soaked for a while, and the prints were dug without damage.

Even so, if there are traces left, then the heavy rain may not necessarily leave nothing behind.

Secondly, she deliberately drove through the dirt on the side of the road, and the imprints made by the wheels on one side were also very clear. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that a heavy rain in the past few days had loosened the soil, making it easier to leave imprints.

However, since late autumn and winter, it has been raining continuously. Here is a deep mountain with dense forests, and the light is not enough. It seldom shines directly on the ground. The soil before the heavy rain is not too dry and hard.

Having come to this revelation, Shu Wan observed the muddy ground more carefully - as long as the car drives through the dirt on the roadside, it will leave marks; if the marks are found, that is a kind of hope.

……

It has been a while since the last time I came to Mu's house. Standing in front of the gate of Mu's house at that time, I still felt in a trance as if I came back with my mother back then. I only felt that the house was extremely solemn.

But looking at it now, I can clearly feel the decay and dullness emanating from the depths of the house. Mu Li doesn't want to see it, but he has to admit that the Mu family is gradually declining.

Decline is better than being falsely accused of collapse, at least in decline, a family is still there, but once it collapses, everything is gone, and the mother's last wish has also come to nothing.

Murray rang the doorbell, and soon a domestic servant came out to answer the door, and was surprised to see her.

"Where's father?" Murray asked.

The domestic helper came back to his senses, and said in fear: "Mr. hasn't come back yet, what can the second miss do with Mr.?"

"Since he's not here, I'll go in and wait for him." With that said, Mu Li walked in.

The domestic helper seemed to want to stop him, but stopped, hurriedly closed the door, and ran forward to lead Mu Li into the house.

"Second Miss, wait a moment, I'll make you a cup of tea."

"No need." Mu Li turned around and looked directly at the domestic helper, "Take me to take a fingerprint, the fingerprint combination lock outside the door, I don't want to ring the doorbell again next time."

The domestic servant's eyes widened in surprise, both in astonishment and panic.

Mu Li said again: "There is also the key of this house, you can also prepare a set for me. My room was also cleaned up earlier, so give me the key together."

"This... the second lady is going to come back to live?"

"It doesn't matter whether you come back or live here, you just do as I tell you."

"But..." the domestic servant hesitated to speak.

"But what? Who won't let me come back to live?"

The domestic helper lowered her brows, and could only say: "Sir, I have already explained that the second lady will not be able to come back to live within this year, because we cleaned up your room and made it a guest room."

Mu Li's fingers holding the bag gradually tightened. After so many years, it is said that time will make people merciful, but Mu Dezhong still has the usual style of not leaving a way out. No excuses were given to her.

She retreated to the sofa and sat down, put her bag on the table, picked up an apple in the fruit plate and peeled it, and the aroused temper gradually sank as the blade turned.

The domestic servant stood there with his head down, not daring to move and not speaking.

The main hall was too quiet, and there was a faint "rustling" sound of apple peels being peeled off in circles.

After a while, the apple was peeled and cleaned. Murray cut off a piece and fed it into her mouth. She chewed it carefully and swallowed it. Before she ate the next piece, she finally made a sound.

"If you make a guest room, you have to tidy it up. I like plain colors. Beds, carpets, and curtains. Wherever colors are involved, they should be light."

"Tomorrow noon at the latest, when I come back in the afternoon, I have to see my room. In addition, the fingerprints and keys I mentioned must be ready before I leave tonight."

The domestic servant was still standing motionless, with his hands clasped in front of his lower abdomen, very at a loss.

Mu Li is the second young lady of the Mu family. She is considered the eldest daughter in a generation of children. After all, there is only one elder and younger, but she is extremely unfavorable to Mu Dezhong. Now that she suddenly comes back to make arrangements, the domestic helper really can't obey.

"Is there a problem?" Mu Li asked knowingly.

The domestic servant sighed heavily, and said, "Second Miss, we dare not go against what the husband has repeatedly explained before."

"That means you can't do what I say, can you?"

"……Yes."

"Okay." Mu Li got up, inserted the tip of the knife into the remaining pulp, and put it on the table, "Go and call my father and tell him that I will stay here tonight."

"This……"

"You tell him in advance, which is better than him coming back to see me, which one is better? I think you should be able to weigh it after you have been in the Mu family for so many years."

The domestic helper looked embarrassed, but finally shook his head and went to call Mu Dezhong.

Only then did Mu Li sit back on the sofa, looking at the remaining apples on the table, he lost his appetite completely.

Of course she will not really live in Mu's house. This cold tomb is not even as good as Lihuaxi, but she has to make sufficient preparations. When Du Sheng and the others find Mu's house, they can fake her. It's like living here.

It is determined that the vehicle will check this road. Sooner or later, the Mu family will be found, and there is no way to hide.
