Chapter 1259 Looking at mother, retracting the neck into the collar

Outside the Sun family's cloth dyeing workshop, there were people coming and going in the past two days, they all came here for a stroll quietly. Everyone was curious about how bad the feng shui of this cloth workshop is, why did the two young masters die in a row?
Compared with Huang Erbao and Gao Huai who had no identity and background, the deaths of Sun Jian and Sun Tong were widely rumored in this small county!
When Liu Wei arrived with Xiao Li, she saw a lot of people poking around outside the cloth workshop.

Liu Wei glanced at Xiao Li, Xiao Li coughed, ran over, and said a few words to the gatekeeper.

After hearing what he said, the yamen servant took a ya stick to drive away the people around him. When he drove them away, there was a bit of a blockage. The county is not big, and most people don't look up and look down. It is inevitable that there are acquaintances here. Yes, one of the yamen servants kicked out even his own clan uncle, who was unprepared when he kicked him out, and even asked the clan uncle to hit him on the head.

After almost driving everyone away, Liu Wei and Xiao Li went in and said, "Tickets can be sold in two days."

But wherever there are dead people, most people will walk around, for fear of bad luck, and it is indeed rare to see people rushing to see the excitement.

According to Xiao Li's description, Liu Wei walked a whole circle from the front door to the back door, and didn't deliberately stop when she walked, just looking around casually.

Xiao Li was also not sure if his mother saw something wrong, so he could only follow behind her and introduce them one by one.

But when she arrived at the courtyard, the mother suddenly stopped, looking at the big square hole on the top of her head that went straight into the sky, and slowly frowned.

Xiao Li immediately regained his spirits: "Mom?"

Liu Wei turned her gaze. There is a well under the patio, but it looks a bit dilapidated, and the wooden barrels beside the well are all broken.

Liu Wei walked over and looked towards the bottom of the well.

Xiao Li said: "Mother, I checked this well on the first day. The well is already a little dry, and it is only enough for Zhao Wu to wash and wash nearby. If it really needs too much water, you have to go to the front of the cloth workshop to dig it. .”

"Dry well?" Liu Wei pondered.

Xiao Li leaned over: "It hasn't dried up yet, but it is estimated that it will dry up within this year. Maybe there is something blocking it. I heard that the water flow has started to decrease in recent years."

The wells here in Sun's dyeing cloth workshop existed before the cloth workshop was built, not just this one well, but this one was the only one that was blocked.

Liu Wei squatted by the half-dry well, looked into it again and again, without moving.

Xiao Li waited by the side for a long time before asking cautiously: "Could mother think that the murderer brought up Sun Tong's body through this well?"

Liu Wei turned her head and glanced at her son: "What?"

Xiao Li blinked, looked at his mother, and then at the well.

Liu Wei was helpless: "The murderer came in through the main entrance! I saw this well, but I thought it was strange!"

Xiao Li ignored the second half of his mother's words, and was only surprised at the front: "You really came in through the main entrance? Why? Mother, what did you find? Where did you find it? Tell me, tell me!"

Being babbled by his son, Liu Wei couldn't concentrate on thinking, so he had to drag his son to the main entrance.

This main entrance is the largest front entrance in the entire cloth workshop.

Since Sun Jian's body was found in the cloth workshop, the entire front yard and middle yard were sealed off, only the back yard could be entered through the small door on the side.

Asking his son to stand at the gate, Liu Wei pointed: "What did you see?"

Xiao Li stared at the copper lock, and said carefully: "The big lock has been used for many years, the lock is very old, the area around the keyhole is very messy, and there are traces of key holes."

Liu Wei snorted: "Who told you to look at this, I'll let you look at the door knocker."

Xiao Li was stunned for a moment, then went to look at the two round door knockers.

Compared with the weather-beaten big lock, the door knocker is much cleaner. The door knocker is also made of copper. The upper half circle shows black rust marks, but the lower half circle is very bright. Half circles wear more and are cleaner.

Xiao Li inspected the front and back of the door knocker, left and right, corners and corners, but found nothing wrong. He looked innocently at his mother and tucked his neck into his collar.

Liu Wei sighed, "What about your observation skills?"

Xiao Li was about to cry, and she wiped her eyes with the back of her hand aggrievedly.

After all, the family had just had a reunion, and the heat hadn't passed, and Liu Wei didn't want to make her son cry the next day, so she patiently asked him, "What's the difference between the door knocker on the left and the door knocker on the right?"

With tears in his eyes, Xiao Li looked again, and said, "No, it's nothing... area..."

"The biggest difference is that there is no difference." Liu Wei said.

Xiao Li was stunned, and opened his mouth stupidly, not knowing why.

Liu Wei began to explain to him: "The cloth workshop is a closed business environment, so the door here will be closed all year round. Do you still remember that there is a cloth dyeing workshop in Qujiang Mansion, what kind of cloth workshop there is? ?”

Xiao Li recalled it for a while, and immediately said: "The door is closed, because every cloth workshop has its own secret recipe, what kind of cloth can be dyed with what color, ordinary materials are not uncommon, but the finer the cloth, the more beautiful it is." Difficult to dye, even some complicated ones, it takes dozens of days to dye them to form a horse. Therefore, this kind of factory-like business environment involving commercial secrets is mostly closed except for the front shop, and the back factory is closed, and no outsiders are easily allowed to approach. .”

Seeing that his son's memory is not bad, Liu Wei was relieved, and pointed to the door knocker and said: "These two doors are closed all year round, but if someone enters, they must knock on the door. Most of us are Right-handed, so it stands to reason that the knocker on the right will be used more often."

Xiao Li kept nodding his head: "Yes, yes, it's really like this, the door knockers of other people's houses are like this."

Liu Wei said again: "If you touch it with your hand, how do you feel about the two door knockers?"

Xiao Li went to touch it. After he finished touching it, he hesitated for a while before saying, "It's nothing...too, too big..."

"Yes, why is there no difference?" Liu Wei asked back, and under his son's bewildered gaze, he pointed to the door knocker on the left and said, "Over the years, the left side is used less and the right side is used more. It stands to reason that the right side should be smoother. The left side is more astringent, but why do both sides feel the same?"

Xiao Li stared wide-eyed, staring at the two door knockers again and again.

"Because someone else wiped it." Liu Wei frowned: "Someone used his dirty hand to hold the door knocker on the left. Afterwards, he wiped it specially, and even wiped it for a long time. It feels smooth to the touch."

"That is to say..."

Liu Wei nodded: "Yes, that is to say, when the murderer entered the dyeing workshop through the main entrance, the door was not locked at all, so he knocked on the door. Suppose, the murderer was holding the corpse in his right hand, so it was inconvenient to knock on the door. Standing in a sexual position, he knocked on the left door knocker with his left hand facing the left door, and then someone opened the door for him, and then maybe the murderer, or the person who opened the door for him, they wiped off what was on the door knocker, lest they be caught People found that they wiped the door knocker for a long time, and they thought that there would be no evidence left, but on the contrary, the door knocker on the right was smooth and clean except for the part that was held by people all the year round, and the upper half circle was still covered with copper rust. But the door knocker on the left, because it has been specially wiped, even the upper half circle, looks much cleaner."

"So... that is to say, there is not one murderer?"

Liu Wei patted his son's head: "It's not too stupid."

In fact, Xiao Li didn't think that his observation ability was so weak that he was blind, but compared with his mother, he was indeed far behind. At the same time as he pardoned him, he regained his spirit: "The accomplice opened the door for the murderer, So the accomplice is someone from the cloth dyeing workshop, but that’s not right, the cloth workshop has been sealed off, and the only back door is only used by Zhao Wu, so is it Zhao Wu who is the accomplice?”

Liu Wei couldn't take it anymore, and poked her son's forehead with one finger, hating iron for being weak: "I just praised you, and I became stupid immediately."

Xiao Li held his head pitifully, looking at his mother.

Liu Wei had a terrible headache: "If Zhao Wu is an accomplice, why would they go through the front door? Why not just go to the back door? And since the murderer entered through the front door, the accomplice must be someone who has the key to the front door, understand? "

Xiao Li had an idea: "Management?"

Liu Wei nodded: "Although Zhao Wu is also a small steward, he is probably not qualified enough to manage the gate keys. You go back and check, and read the information of all the employees of the cloth workshop again. Remember, be smart and take a good look. "

Xiao Li quickly agreed, vowing: "I will definitely watch carefully, and I will definitely be able to find out the identity of the accomplice! Mother, trust me!"

Liu Wei looked confused...
