Chapter 17 The Death of the Maid
"Mr. Hu, what were you...?" After listening to Jiang Li's words, the muscles on the corner of Wang Jing's mouth twitched twice, and his emotions instantly became extremely frightened. He seemed to have forgotten the difference between his identity and the other party, and eagerly stepped forward and grabbed his shoulder: "Do you know something? Miss Luo, is Miss Luo really killed?"
"Didn't it?" Jiang Li keenly captured the information in the other party's words. He pulled Wang Jing aside and lowered his voice: "Did you see something before Luo Suyan was killed in three years? Don't worry, if you believe me, you can tell me what you think in your heart. Like you, I am always confused about Miss Luo's death. Now anyone with a discerning eye can see that our Wangchun Tower is haunted, and the evil ghost who killed people is not someone else, but Miss Luo who died unjustly. If we don't find the person who really killed her back then, I'm afraid Miss Luo will still be in peace. If you really have such a little bit of admiration for her, then you should help me find the murderer together, right?"
Seeing that Wang Jing's expression was shaken, Jiang Li struck while the iron was hot to replenish a lot. Finally, he persuaded the other party. Wang Jing gritted his teeth and whispered: "Actually, after Miss Luo died, I had suspected three people. However, I was a little slight, and no matter who these three people were, I could not afford to offend them."
The three most suspected people are naturally the dead Yan Xueni, the head of Wangchunlou, the mother Liang, and the son-in-law of Hanlin scholar Lin Weijin.
"Yan Xueni has always disliked Miss Luo. If the other party dies, the position of the courtesan will naturally fall on her. This time her death just shows that Yan Xueni did take action against Miss Luo back then." Wang Jing said.
Although everyone speculated so at the beginning, the task had only started for two days, and it was obviously not as simple as they thought. Jiang Li nodded, his eyes moved, and continued to ask: "Isn't Miss Luo a money tree in Wangchun Pavilion? I heard that when she was still there, every month was the jewelry and silver offered by the rich businessmen and the children of officials, which was enough to fill a warehouse? Is it too late for Mother Liang to give her a Bodhisattva, so why would he be so angry about killing?"
"This matter has a lot to do with the person surnamed Lin." Wang Jing snorted coldly, and then told Jiang Li about an unknown thing back then...
After leaving Tingyu Pavilion, dried fish almost trotted away. He was frightened by the horrifying scene he had seen before, and the laughter of the female ghost was like a magical sound, and it was always lingering in his heart.
He had to admire Jiang Li's psychological quality. Although the other party was scared to death, he was still able to remain calm in the face of danger and kept it. It seemed that he was planning to inquire with the servant named Wang Jing.
"That guy, it should be fine." Yugan was very worried about Jiang Li's comfort. He was still a little worried. He walked around the corridor along the way. When he came to his senses, he found that he had already moved to the front hall garden.
And at this moment, he saw a figure sitting next to the steps with his back to him in a daze. Although the yard was full of flowers and the fragrance was scent, the dried fish still keenly smelled the faint smell of blood in the air.
Fish stepped forward and walked a few steps before finding out that there was a headless female corpse standing beside the man, and the person who was staring at him with his back to him was not someone else, but the player named Four Seasons Evergreen.
Until the dried fish walked to him, half of the evergreen body was stained with blood. He raised his head numbly and muttered to himself: "Why... Why is this happening... I thought as long as we are together and as long as we stay away from this incident, we will not encounter any danger..."
He originally wanted to pick a bright flower for Feiyan. The fragrance of the mulan in the garden was Feiyan's favorite flower during his lifetime. But in the blink of an eye, when he turned around, accompanied by a "bang", the four-fish Changqing suddenly found that Feiyan's body fell heavily to the ground, and the part of her head above her neck disappeared.
"Silent escape is not a way to pass the level. If each of us thinks so, we may end up with the team destruction." Yu Gan sighed and said to him: "It is obvious that if you want to spend this mission safely, unless you have enough props on you to resist the attack, the mission is to force us to find clues."
His words are not unreasonable, Feiyan's death is enough to explain the problem.
Siji Changqing looked at Feiyan's corpse, and big tears fell down her cheeks. The white magnolia was already covered in blood, lying quietly on the ground.
"It's all my fault, it's because I'm too useless, and she can't even protect her!" Chang Qing couldn't help crying when he looked at his fiancee's body.
Yu Gan sighed and said to him: "It's useless to be sad now. You must know that the evil spirits are hard to guard against. Now that she is dead, what you have to do should be cheering up as soon as possible and join us. With us, there is still some hope of survival."
Changqing wiped away the tears and was still a little dazed. Yugan shook his head helplessly. Fortunately, there was no one walking around in Wangchun Tower. With his help, the two buried Feiyan's body in the back garden. Then he cleaned the scene and hurriedly took Siji Changqing to discuss with Guanshan.
Yu Gan always felt that the evil ghost would not attack Feiyan for no reason, and the reason why the other party was killed must have discovered something before his death. Recalling everything he encountered in Yan Xueni's house before, and Feiyan's head that appeared again, Yu Gan felt that it might be an important clue.
Jiang Li also learned a shocking secret from Wang Jing.
After listening to the other party, Jiang Li rushed to the woodshed in the Xiaren courtyard without stopping. Looking at the iron lock on the door, he eagerly grabbed a servant and asked him to hurry up and get the key to open the door.
This maid was the first witness to discover the bodies of Mei Xiang and Manager Zhao on the first night. Wang Jing said that because the scene at that time was too terrifying, the timid girl was frightened and was ordered to be locked in the woodshed by Liang's mother the day before yesterday.
At first, Jiang Li did not take the maid's affairs into his heart. It was not until just now that Wang Jing told him that Zhen'er was Luo Suyan's personal maid and the only survivor who escaped by chance three years ago.
"Mr. Hu, the key is here." The servant rushed to the door with a bunch of keys. Jiang Li pointed at the door and his voice increased a lot: "Hurry open it for me!"
"Okay, okay..." The servant saw that he looked serious and knew that the matter might be a bit serious, so he didn't dare to be careless, so he immediately opened the door lock.
When the wooden door was pushed open, a foul smell mixed with fishy smell came to my face instantly, and the sun shone in the house. Jiang Li suddenly saw that the maid named Zhen'er had been tied to her neck by a rope as thick as an index finger and hung on the beam of the house.
Her eyes raked, her mouth was wide open, her chin was covered in blood, her mouth was pitch black, and her tongue had disappeared. She was shit and urine flowed all over the floor along Zhen'er's trouser legs. It could be seen that she was very painful when she died. What is more noteworthy is that her hands were also cut off in one go, and blood kept dripping along the wound. It seemed that she had not been killed for long.
"It's dead, it's dead!!" The servant who witnessed all this was so scared that he fell to the ground, while Jiang Li frowned, stared at the corpse in front of him, and fell into deep thought...
