Chapter 252 Investigating Clues

"Really?!" Qingzhu didn't care to argue with Li Wenchong, and hurriedly asked, "What clue? Did you find someone? Who is she? Where does she live? Does she have a child? She..."

The guard with the knife had a strange expression.

"Okay, Qingzhu." Li Wenchong said, preventing Qingzhu from continuing to ask, and motioned for the guard with the knife to continue.

The guard with the knife said very respectfully: "During the investigation, the people below accidentally let the portrait be blown away by the wind, and then the Gu family picked it up..."
-
"Huh? Why do I feel that the person in this portrait looks familiar?" Yao Ruyan held this portrait, thinking that she had seen it somewhere before.

Seeing Jin Yiwei approaching, Gu Modi hurriedly asked Yao Ruyan to return the portrait.

Unexpectedly, Jin Yiwei, who led the team, had eyes and ears, and vaguely heard the word "familiar", so instead of taking the portrait, he stared at Yao Ruyan and asked, "Madam, have you seen the person in the portrait?"

"Huh? I don't know, I just think it looks familiar..."

"Think about it carefully, if Madam can tell the truth, there will be a lot of rewards from above."

"Who is in this portrait? Is it a criminal?" Yao Ruyan just asked, but was stopped by Gu Modi with a helpless expression.

Gu Mozhai said: "Okay, there are a lot of similar-looking people in the world, and you don't know who they are, so don't delay Jin Yiwei's handling of the case. Let's go, don't you want to buy a new hairpin?"

Yao Ruyan noticed that there was something strange in Gu Modi's eyes, and she closed her mouth that she wanted to open. She said, "That's right, I almost forgot if you didn't tell me."

Then he turned his head and apologized to Jin Yiwei, "I'm sorry, it looks familiar at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it doesn't look so familiar. I'm really sorry for delaying your case."

The husband and wife walked away.

Jin Yiwei stood where he was, looked at the portrait, and then at the lady who walked away: It really looks like it!
He gave a signal and asked people to follow the couple.

The husband and wife walked away, Yao Ruyan turned her head to confirm that there was no Jinyiwei nearby, and said to Gu Mozhai suspiciously: "Why did you say that just now? Did you really not recognize the person in the portrait? She looks so similar to me, You look at me every day, but still can't figure out who she is?"

At first, Yao Ruyan really didn't remember who was painted in the portrait, and when she realized it, she was a little surprised—because the person in the portrait turned out to be her mother? !
——My dear!
——Why did her mother get onto the portrait?
Gu Modi was a little speechless, and said: "Jin Yiwei handles the case, do you think it is a good thing to have something to do with Jin Yiwei?"

"But... okay, how could my mother have anything to do with Jin Yiwei?" Yao Ruyan was puzzled, "Didn't my mother take my brother and the others to Jinling? Could it be that someone is secretly framing my mother and the others again?"

Gu Modi shook his head: "I don't know about it. Anyway, you should treat it as if you don't know about it. Don't mention it to anyone, you know? Let's go shopping first according to the original plan, and then go home. Tell my father and elder brother about it, maybe they have clues."

Yao Ruyan nodded with a thought.

When Jin Yiwei, who was disguised in plain clothes, heard this, he winked at the other person, telling him to continue to follow, then quietly backed away, and then reported the news he had heard.

It didn't take long for the news to reach Tong Xingyu, the guard with a knife. As soon as he heard the news, he reported it to Li Wenchong without saying a word.

"Have you seen it, master, the subordinate said, the subordinate must have seen the person, the subordinate is right, the person was found..." Qingzhu urged, and asked Li Wenchong to quickly order to search the young couple, and wait for the investigation to be clear. If they don't know their identities, can't they find that woman?

However, Li Wenchong's expression was indescribable.

Didn't Qingzhu hear clearly just now? The guard with the knife reported to the "young couple". Since the girl is married, how can her mother be younger?
The little girl, Jiji, is at least thirteen or fourteen years old, and after seeing someone else, and then getting married, she will be sixteen or seventeen years old.

Seeing the tacit understanding between the husband and wife, it is obviously impossible for them to be newlyweds, so the age of this girl...

After calculating the girl's age, and then calculating her mother's age, if you add more than ten years, the girl's mother is at least thirty-five years old, and may have to go up.

After doing the math, are you sure it's the one they're looking for?

Li Wenchong remembered very clearly that although he was a little unconscious because of the drug at that time, the woman's skin was as thick as fat, and it felt very smooth to the touch, and she didn't look like she was so old.

And afterwards, he also saw her face and observed her carefully several times.

Others don't know what's going on, so if they hear the clues, they have to look down, why is Qingzhu also confused?
However, with outsiders around, Li Wenchong really couldn't argue with Qingzhu, so he had no choice but to agree, and asked Tong Xingyu, the guard with a knife, to follow the clues to find out the identity of that person and determine whether it was the person they were looking for.

"Yes, this subordinate will do it."

Tong Xingyu, the guard with a knife, took the order and retreated respectfully.

As soon as he left, Li Wenchong glared at Qingzhu, who was still excited and wished he could investigate it himself, and said, "Did you do it on purpose?"

"Ah? Master, what are you talking about?"

"I said, did you do it on purpose? That girl is married, do you think her mother can be young? So, do you think I slept with an 'old woman'?" Li Wenchong bit the "old woman" three times words.

"No, the woman I found for the master is a bit old, but it's not in the wilderness, I can't find other women..." Qing Zhu didn't understand what Li Wenchong meant, and thought that her master liked young women. The little girl felt that the woman he was looking for was a bit old, so she hurriedly explained, "On the way, we met that one. It wasn't her, it had to be the woman who wanted your idea. There was no choice at all. Besides, the subordinate After looking it over, that woman is actually quite good looking except for being a bit older..."

Li Wenchong was so angry that a book fell on Qingzhu's head, and Qingzhu jumped away in fright.

"You still dare to run?! Come back to me..."

"The subordinate doesn't run away, the master wants to beat the subordinate, and the subordinate is right. The subordinate won't tell you anymore, the subordinate will go to the Jinyiwei to find out the news, and tell the master the good news later."

Li Wenchong was so angry, he really wanted to grab Qingzhu back and beat him up.

This kid, he just didn't fight for three days, and went to the house to expose the tiles!

On the other side, our heroine Gu Qingling sneezed: "Aqiu—"

She rubbed her nose and muttered, "Is someone missing me?"

The eldest servant girl Chunchun came over and said that Uncle Yao was here.

"Why did he come here at this time?" Gu Qingling looked at the sky outside, feeling a little surprised, "Shouldn't he be studying in the academy at this time?"

"Maybe there's something going on." The eldest maid Chunchun lowered her head, not daring to guess wildly.

 Guess, is there any update today?
