Da Song Private Investigator

Chapter 478 Another murder case.

After such an arrangement, Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce were about to leave, but just as they were about to turn around, Hua Lang seemed to have thought of something, so he looked at Lin Qing and asked, "We have already inquired clearly. After arriving at Long Budi, there was no performance, why did you lie to Long Budi, and what did you do in those few days?"

Lin Qing looked a little ugly, and replied after a long time: "To be honest, we did not perform in other places. The reason why we said that to Boss Long was to let him increase our performance fee, because we said that other places still have performances. If there is a performance, Boss Long will find it difficult to invite us, and the price will be higher."

Hua Lang also used this method when he was in Yangzhou, but he didn't think of it last night. Did he think that these entertainers who run the rivers and lakes would not use these methods?

After solving this problem, Hwarang asked again: "Then where were you those few days?"

"We stayed in a ruined temple and didn't go there. We didn't go directly to Duanzhou City until the fourteenth day of the first lunar month."

After asking these questions, Hwarang and the others left Dong's mansion. As for whether what Lin Qing said is true, it remains to be verified. After all, at this stage, if they don't investigate clearly what these people say, they must not take it seriously.

After returning to the state government office, Bao Zheng sent people to inquire again, and this time the scope was expanded a bit, so the government officials did not come back until evening, but they were very disappointed because no one had seen them. They didn't find out where the jugglers had been before, anyway, no one near Duanzhou City had heard of them.

This juggling troupe seemed to come suddenly, which made them feel very strange, how could such a foreigner become the target of the murderer?Could it be that these people were going to be killed when they came to Duanzhou City?

What is the murderer's motive for killing these people?

But based on what they know now, they can't investigate it at all.

When the sky was getting dark, the wind was blowing faintly, and it was still cool, and the wind was actually mixed with rain.

It was raining, the sky was dark, and the smoke from every house was not so obvious. After eating some food in the state office, Hwarang and the others went straight back to the detective agency.

At this time, the rain was not very heavy, but their clothes were still wet when they got home.

The rain in early spring, the wind at night, and the sound of wind and rain are mixed together, like a piece of music, and everyone enters their dreams in this piece of music.

In the middle of the night, the rain became heavier, but it stopped in the morning. Maybe it was because we were too tired yesterday, or maybe the sound of the wind and rain last night was too hypnotizing, so everyone was lazy the next day.

They were awakened by a knock on the door. When Hwarang got dressed from the bed, he was still sleepy. He went to open the door and saw Zhang Long. His trouser legs were slightly muddy, but his expression was flustered. of.

At that time, Hwarang didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, he just stretched his waist, rubbed his eyes, and then asked lazily, "Brother Zhang came to me so early, what's the matter?"

Zhang Long might have been too nervous, and didn't know how to answer for a while. Of course, he wasn't nervous for too long. He looked at Hua Lang and said, "Brother Hua, something serious has happened, and someone in the Dong Mansion has died."

"Who is it?" Hwarang was startled, and suddenly lost sleepiness.

"Lin Qing!"

"Lin Qing?"

"That's right, it's Lin Qing!"

Hua Lang didn't have time to say more, he washed his face quickly, and then rushed to Dong Mansion with Zhang Longyin Wucuo. Naturally, Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce had already gone there.

On the way, Zhang Long said: "Today, I asked a young man from Dong's mansion to report the case, saying that Lin Qing was dead, and Liang Dou and Liangtian brothers injured many people in the mansion. Dong Yuanwai was frightened." , hiding in the house and not daring to come out.”

Hwarang can understand the feelings of the two brothers Liang Dou and Liang Tian, ​​but it's also unreasonable for them to hurt people so recklessly.

When a group of people came to Dong's mansion in a hurry, Dong Yuanwai had already come out of the house, but he hid behind Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce, fearing that Liang Dou and Liang Tian would do something wrong to him, Bao Zheng was scolding Liang Dou and Liang Tian, ​​both of them are tall and big, with a bad temper, but after all they knew Bao Zheng's identity, after being reprimanded by Bao Zheng, they had no choice but to stop talking.

Because it took some time for Bao Zheng to reprimand Liang Dou, Liang Tian and the others, when Hwarang and the others came, Bao Zheng and the others hadn't examined the body. Bao Zheng saw Hwarang and the others, and then went into Lin Qing's room with them.

Lin Qing's room was no different from the guest rooms of the others. At this time, the door of Lin Qing's room had been damaged. According to Ju Liangdou, he pushed the door open and kicked it open.

In other words, Lin Qing's death was still a murder in a secret room.

At this time, Lin Qing was lying on the bed. His face was black and his lips were purple. Hwarang probed his throat with a silver needle and found that the silver needle turned black. This is an obvious poisoning reaction. After checking Lin Qing's whole body, there was no trauma .

At this time, there were wine and vegetables on the tables and chairs in Lin Qing's room. He didn't eat much food, but there was only half a small pot of wine left. He died of poisoning after drinking the wine in the flagon.

After Hualang told Bao Zheng and the others, Bao Zheng immediately called Liang Douliangtian and Dong Yuanwai in, and asked, "Who provided Lin Qing with the wine last night?"

Director Dong hesitated, and said: "Last night, he asked for the wine himself. Before, we only provided food and tea, but Lin Qing asked us for wine last night, but... maybe he was too sad and wanted to borrow the wine." Soothe your sorrows."

Bao Zheng looked at Liang Dou and the others, and asked, "Have you guys drunk?"

Liang Dou shook his head: "We brothers don't drink."

Bao Zheng nodded slightly, and then continued to ask Dong Yuanwai: "Where did you get the wine?"

"It's just in the wine cellar in our mansion. There should be no problem with the wine there."

"Who brought the wine?"

"Young man in the house."

Not long after, a servant from the mansion ran over, he was trembling, as if he was very frightened, Bao Zheng looked at him and asked, "Did you poison Lin Qing's wine?"

The young servant suddenly knelt down and said: "Your Excellency has clearly observed that the wine has only passed through the hands of the villain. The villain really dared to poison it. If it really poisoned Lin Qing to death, wouldn't I be the most suspicious."

It stands to reason that there would be no such stupid people in the world.

However, it was obviously impossible for Lin Qing to poison himself to death, so Bao Zheng asked again: "When you gave Lin Qing wine, did you really not leave the flagon, or did someone else see it?"
