Card Room

Chapter 499

After tracing Qin Feng, Chu Huaying returned to the inn, and downstairs, Gui Yuanzhang’s investigation also yielded results.

The girl crying at Chen’s home this morning was named Qin Yuxia, who was the sister of the missing Chen Yu’s wife, Qin Yuwei. Gui Yuanzhang used Lu Jiuchuan’s mask as Qin Feng and went directly to her Question.

He knocked on the door of the "A" room on the second floor. Sure enough, he saw the girl standing with red eyes in the door. After seeing him, he choked and asked, "Brother Qin, does my sister have any news?"

Gui Yuanzhang was silent for a moment, and he shook his head solemnly. "Girl Qin, I'm sorry, there is no clue as to where your sister-in-law is. I'm sending someone to search. I came to you so late, I want to ask them clearly How did you know? Who has offended you? You better tell me in detail."

Qin Yuxia had no doubt about the identity of the "Qin Feng" in front of him, and asked him to enter the house. In business, my sister and Brother Chen knew each other since they were young, and they grew up together. They have two strong feelings, and they are right together. When my sister was 18 years old, Uncle Chen came to the house with a gift and my father agreed to their marriage. ."

Gui Yuanzhang asked, "Your family is also in business? Can there be an enemy?"

Qin Yuxia immediately shook his head. "Our Qin family opened the largest restaurant in Qingzhou. My parents treat people kindly, and my sister's personality is also very gentle. Shouldn't they offend anyone?"

"What about the Chen family?"

Qin Yuxia lowered his head and thought for a while, "I don't know, they came from other places more than ten years ago. Uncle Chen is very business-minded and came to Qingzhou in less than three years."

"You said that Uncle Chen is Chen Yu's father? I heard that he has passed away. Do you know how he died?"

Qin Yuxia's face changed slightly, as if there was something inexplicable. Gui Yuanzhang said, "This problem is related to the reason why your sister and brother-in-law are missing. You better tell me the truth."

Qin Yuxia gritted his teeth before he made up his mind to say, "Uncle Chen once went out to drink with someone once four years ago. When he came back, he suddenly went crazy. The people of the Chen family said that he might be Zhongxie. After he went crazy, he bite everywhere. Brother Chen bound him in desperation, and finally, he slammed his head against the wall, his face covered with blood, and his death was quite miserable."

"..." Unexpectedly, Chen Yu's father died so strangely.

"How did he deal with the latter?" Gui Yuanzhang asked.

"I found a cemetery in the local area and buried it." Qin Yuxia was silent for a moment, and added, "It didn't take long for Aunt Chen to die. The method of death was exactly the same as Uncle Chen. The fortune teller said that the feng shui in their yard was not good. It may have been cursed. The brother-in-law took a big hit and did not want to stay in Qingzhou anymore, so he moved his sister back to his hometown."

When Gui Yuanzhang asked, he pressed the team headset and passed the message to Lu Jiuchuan and Tang Ci.

Hearing this, Tang Ci whispered and said, "The death of the Chen couple is very strange, biting people crazy, and it feels like they have been affected by some kind of toxin. Will it be the murderer of the "Ghost Suicide Case"?"

Lu Jiuchuan said, "Chen Yu's parents died, and their couple moved back to Qingfeng Town to live four years ago. Xue Ersao, Han Ningshuang, was married to Qingfeng Town four years ago?"

Tang Ci checked the records in the drone. The photographed roster clearly recorded the situation of each household in the town. The time when the Chen family moved to Qingfeng Town was exactly the same as the time when Han Ningshuang married Qingfeng Town.

Tang Cichao Lu Jiuchuan nodded his head “It was four years ago. Suppose Han Ningshuang was the murderer. She committed crimes in Qingzhou City four years ago and killed Chen Yu’s parents; immediately, Chen Yu’s family moved back to Qingfeng Town and she married Xue Zhao from Qingfeng Town also went back to her hometown. During these four years, she carefully planned and sorted out all the Qiu families who murdered her mother-in-law during the famine, and cleaned them up in turn. The cause of her husband’s death may also be unusual. She just married In Qingfeng Town, Xue Zhao died soon. She became a widow. How could such a coincidence happen? Could Xue Zhao also be poisoned by her?"

After all, it is easy for people on the pillow to discover her secret. So she simply murdered her husband and did business as a widow in the town, pretending to be a pitiful and weak face, and lowering the vigilance of her in the town?

Lu Jiuchuan thinks more and more that this speculation is very reasonable, otherwise how to explain so many coincidences? He was silent for a moment, and said seriously, "The suspicion of Han Ningshuang is indeed getting bigger and bigger."

Gui Yuanzhang thinks so too. He looked at the girl in front of him and continued to ask, "Girl Qin, there was a famine in Qingfeng Town more than ten years ago. Was your Qingzhou affected at that time?"

Qin Yuxia froze for a moment, wondering, "Famine? Our Qingzhou is a land of fish and rice. We have never experienced famine. However, I heard that there were famine in some places more than ten years ago and many people died. I don't know exactly where. "

It seems that after the Chen family left Qingfeng Town, they chose a rich place to start their business. They should not have told the locals that they came from the famine-laden Qingfeng Town, to avoid the locals doubting the origin of their money.

Judging from the description of locals in Qingfeng Town, the Chen family was not rich before.

But Qin Yuxia said that Uncle Chen was very business-minded and quickly established a foothold in Qingzhou...

Where did he get the funds?

Tang Ci concluded: "Chen Yu's parents should have obtained a lot of money by disgraceful means in the famine year. Maybe they also participated in the hound organization, had eaten human flesh, and drank human blood. After the famine, they stayed away from Qingfeng In the town, they went to do business in other places. Because they had a lot of money in their hands, they soon established a foothold in Qingzhou and attached to the real wealthy Qin family. Just somehow, the murderer went to Qingzhou and killed Chen Yu. Parents."

Lu Jiuchuan agreed to nod. "In this way, the entire logical chain will make sense. Han Ningshuang and Qin Feng are all survivors of that year. Han Ningshuang killed Chen Yu's parents in Qingzhou, and then returned to Qingfeng Town to become the widow Xue Ersao. Continue to clean up the offspring of those criminals. Qin Feng knows that she did it, but because of the sentiment of the year, can't bear to disclose her crimes?"

The two fell silent, lowering their heads and thinking carefully—although such speculation could explain most of the current doubts, what do they always seem to miss?

Suddenly, Tang Ci thought of something, and asked Gui Yuanzhang in the headset, "Oh, Lao Gui, do you remember when you went to the Qingfeng Town Academy to investigate, the wife of Zhao Family's eldest son, Zhao Zeping, also came from Qingzhou, as if... Qin?"

Gui Yuanzhang also remembered this matter.

Since three years later, the Zhao family had arranged a hall for them, placed all their spiritual positions, and gave them incense on time, Xiao Lou speculated that this person was probably Zhao's parents-in-law who had never appeared in the spiritual position.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhao family has a mysterious origin. The people in the town only know her surname Qin. Her surname is the same as that of Qin Yuxia, and she is also from the same town. Shouldn't it be a coincidence?

Gui Yuanzhang asked, "Miss Qin, do you know if there are any other girls from Qingzhou who are surnamed Qin married here?"

Qin Yu Xia Dao "Some are distant relatives of our family. I should call her cousin by seniority, but our relationship is not very close and rarely move around. Her name is Qin Yurou, and she does silk business at home. Yes, I married a man named Zhao. I haven’t seen her for many years."

Sure enough, it was no coincidence that the daughters of the Zhao and Chen families came from Qingzhou.

Three sisters of the Qin family, the relevant figures in the case.

Qin Yurou married Zhao's son and daughter Zhao Zeping, and now Zhao's family is missing, and everyone's sign is placed in the hall, but without her and her son's name, is she the survivor who gave incense to Zhao's family?

Qin Yuwei, married to Chen Yu, and after Chen Yu's parents died strangely, she returned to Qingfeng Town with Chen Yu. On the rainy night of the incident, she gave birth to a child, but immediately followed, the family of Chen's family disappeared, and Xiao Lou found the body of Chen's family at the mass grave.

Qin Yuxia, the youngest, knew that her sister was about to give birth, and Lao Lao ran to Qingfeng Town to visit, but when she entered the door, she found her home was empty and there was no one, so she cried out and attracted the crowd, and asked Qin Feng to investigate this thing.

Tang Ci collated and recorded the information of the three on paper.

The clues that Gui Yuanzhang found from Qin Yuxia made Han Ningshuang's suspicion growing, but Lu Jiuchuan didn't want to take the conclusion lightly. He said, "The letter we left to Xiao Lou is still an objective description of what we have heard. News, don’t add too much subjective reasoning. I always feel that we seem to be missing something."

Tang Ci thought the same way. Xiao Lou and their time and space three years later could not find out what happened during the incident, but they could find out the performance of many people after the incident. To judge the murderer, all information must be synthesized.

Gui Yuanzhang returned to his room and whispered on the voice channel, "We have to add some clues to the letter to Xiao Lou. Do we want to go to the Zhao family?"

Lu Jiuchuan said, "Let me quit with Tang, first get the letter back, and then finish it."

The two put on invisible cloaks and came to the Zhao family together.

As a result, as soon as she entered the door, she saw a woman in black with a child of about twelve years old, mysteriously sneaked into the Zhao family. Block, and then use a red pen to write on it expressionlessly.

The Spirit of Zhao Zeping... The Spirit of Zhao Zean...

She wrote quickly, and in a blink of an eye, she wrote the name of the Zhao family, and arranged them in rows in order of age, and then lit the incense burner at the front, holding three incense sticks, knelt in front and worshipped .

The child next to her was very pale. She took the child's hand and whispered, "Kneel down and give your father, grandpa, uncle, aunt and kowtow them."

The child knelt in front of the spirit position and was knocked three knocks by her.

Then she said coldly, "Do you remember the man who killed the Zhao family?"

The child choked back and said, "Remember."

The woman said, "When you grow up, you must avenge your father, you know?"

The child nodded vigorously "Got it, mother."

She stood up and turned her baby away.

Lu Jiuchuan stared at this scene staringly, "Is this man Qin Yurou, Zhao's parent-in-law, and her children?"

Tang said, "The spirit of the Zhao family is really hers. It seems that for the next few years, she has been offering incense to the people of the Zhao family. Xiao Lou's speculation on this matter is correct."

Lu Jiuchuan smiled and said, "Many of the results speculated by Han Jiang and Xiao Lou are correct. Of course, they occasionally make mistakes. We first summarize all the clues we see and leave them to analyze."

But at this moment, Tang Ci suddenly asked a question, "Nine Brothers, don't you think that the way to clear the secret room may not be the same as we thought."

Lu Jiuchuan looked at him doubtfully. "What do you mean?"

Tang said, "Since we came to three years ago and can't go back to the original world for a while, can we only wait for Xiao Lou to speculate that the correct murderer will pass the customs? Will it... We also need to find the correct murderer, Otherwise, you will always be trapped in this world and wait three years before meeting Xiao Lou?"

Lu Jiuchuan felt cold in his heart, and he didn't know how to refute.

The timeline is different, can Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang pass customs, can they be taken together?

If it is said that the timeline of the Chamber of Secrets follows normal logic, then they can only meet Xiao Lou three years later. In other words, if they want to wait for Xiaolou to clear customs, they must wait for three years and be in the same world as Xiaolou before they can clear customs together.

Thinking of this, Lu Jiuchuan suddenly became one of the first two big men. "Will wait three years and analyze the case with Xiao Lou, or will we also find the murderer at this time and clear customs in our way?"

Tang Ci found a branch, drew a line on the ground, marked two points, and carefully analyzed and said, "We are located at time a, and Xiaolou is located at time b three years later. Everything we see now It takes three years to pass to Xiao Lou. We pass customs at time a, and we can still leave clues to Xiao Lou at time b to assist them in customs clearance. I think the biggest difficulty in the secret room is probably here. ."

Lu Jiuchuan understood that "that is-the passing of clues across time?"

Tang Ci nodded. "Otherwise, why did the gatekeeper send us three years ago to let us see too much information? Didn't this make it harder to reason?"

Lu Jiuchuan "............"

Every time the reasoning relies on Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou, this time the team is sent to different time points, which is the most severe test for everyone. In case their reasoning is wrong, or the clues passed are wrong, it is likely that the murderer was finally mistaken, leading to the end of the group.

They were three years ago, not parallel time and space synchronized with Xiao Lou.

Lu Jiuchuan's complexion gradually became difficult to look at.

Tang Ci said calmly, "There are now two options. First, we hide our identities and wait for three years before meeting with Xiao Lou. Second, under the premise of certainty that the reasoning is correct, we first pass the customs and give Xiao Lou them Leave complete clues to help them clear customs in three years. Which one do you choose?"

Lu Jiuchuan held his temple in a headache. For three years in this world, he did not have that patience. The time flow rate of this world is calculated separately. Three years, it is really a minute and a second to count the days...

Customs clearance?

He didn't have that much confidence in himself, but, looking at the pale face of the man standing next to him, Lu Jiuchuan suddenly smiled slightly and gently pressed Tang Ci's shoulder and said, "I choose the first one. I believe your analysis Ability, after all, before they knew Xiao Lou, our team’s think tank was always you."

Probably this is why Tang Ci can walk out of the nightmare secret room with his legs cut off-he never relies on physical strength, but on his brain.

Tang Ci listened to each other’s compliments and calmly said, “Don’t wear me a high hat first. By the way, I finally remembered what we overlooked—I think Han Ningshuang is not the murderer of this murderous case, just an accomplice.”

Lu Jiuchuan was shocked. "Oh? Why do you say that?"

Tang said, "The sound of a rattle."

He paused and frowned slightly. "Do you remember when we first came to this world, the rattle sound came from the direction of the mass grave? At that time, the team of Zhao Jiaying's relatives had just walked out of the town. Han Ningshuang was Since flying kites to play ghosts in the town, why are rattles appearing in a mass grave far away from the town?"

Lu Jiuchuan's eyes lit up and suddenly realized "Yes! Han Ningshuang pleaded guilty in front of Qin Feng and admitted so simply because she knew who the murderer was, she was helping the murderer, and the person who played the ghost was her, but led the Zhao and Chen families It wasn’t her who was burying the post-there was more than one murderer!"

Tang said, "We have to find a way to find out how many children are born to the mother-in-law."
