Chapter 522 The words are amazing
Cang Yunmu said expressionlessly: "If the young master is unwilling to cooperate, I can only invite you to Dali Temple for questioning."

Sikong Mingyuan snorted lightly, "A few days ago, Jingui did go to buy arsenic. The house of the servants is dark and damp. Isn't it normal to have rats? Buying some arsenic to get rid of rats is not illegal, right?"

"Buying arsenic is not against the law, but if arsenic is used to kill people, it is a capital offense." Cang Yunmu stood up, "I want to meet this tea boy Jingui, please ask Mr. Sikong to pass him in."

Sikong Mingyuan knew that there were many officers and soldiers brought by the other party in his mansion at this moment, as well as the Habayashi Army guarding outside the mansion, the situation was stronger than others, so he couldn't help but say no.

Although he didn't like being interrogated like a prisoner, he endured it and calmly called Jingui in.

A handsome young man in servant's clothes came in, bowed and saluted Sikong Sheng who was seated in the chief seat: "Old Master."

Turning around, he said to Sikong Mingyuan next to him: "Master."

Sikong Mingyuan said indifferently: "My lord has something to ask you."

The young man followed his gaze to Cang Yunmu on the left, bowed and said, "I've seen adults before."

"You don't need to be too polite." Cang Yunmu said, "I just have a few questions I want to ask my brother."

"Excuse me, my lord." The boy's reaction was calm, with no trace of embarrassment on his face, "The villain will know everything."

"Your name is Jingui?" Cang Yunmu asked.

"Yes, the young one is Jin Gui."

"Did you buy arsenic at the pharmacy outside four days ago?"

The boy said: "Yes."

"What is it for?" Cang Yunmudan asked.

"Kill the mice."

"How much did you buy?" Cang Yunmu asked again, staring closely at his eyes, "Have you run out?"

"The villain bought a small bag, used half, and the remaining half..." He paused at this point, his tone a bit puzzled.

A light flashed in Cang Yunmu's eyes, and he said coldly, "Where is the rest?"

"The remaining half..." The boy hesitated for a moment, as if he had thought of some possibility, a trace of uneasiness flashed between his brows, "...is gone."

When Cang Yunmu heard the words, his eyes instantly became extremely sharp, "It's gone?"

Sikong Mingyuan's expression also changed when he heard the words, and he quickly turned to look at him, "Why did you disappear? When did you find out?"

Although Sikong Sheng didn't speak, he frowned instantly.

"Just this morning." Jingui frowned and thought, "During the middle of the night last night, I heard a rustling sound, thinking that there are quite a lot of mice in the room, so I got up early this morning and planned to put some arsenic in the corner in the mouse hole, only to find that all the remaining arsenic was gone."

Cang Yunmu took out a small blue porcelain bottle from his sleeve, "Do you know this?"

Jingui glanced at it, his expression seemed a bit puzzled, but he shook his head firmly: "I haven't seen it before."

Although the small blue porcelain bottle looks exquisite and beautiful, it is not worth much, and most people can afford it, and this kind of bottle is mostly used to hold liquid medicine or pills.

When Sikong Sheng saw the bottle, his expression suddenly changed, and a stern look flashed across his eyes.

Cang Yunmu glanced at his expression from the corner of his eyes, pretending not to know, but turned his head to look at Sikong Mingyuan, and said indifferently: "This bottle was found in the young master's yard, and there was residual arsenic powder in it. It was mixed with water and poured out, leaving only some residue on the inner wall of the bottle, the purpose is probably to confuse the public."

Sikong Mingyuan looked at the bottle carefully, "It seems familiar, but I'm sure, I don't have this thing."

After a pause, "Even if Fanghua was poisoned by arsenic and died, it doesn't mean that the person who bought the arsenic is the murderer, and you can't conclude that the murderer is related just by a bottle with arsenic residue in it."

"That's right, it's probably just a coincidence that your son's buddy went to buy arsenic, and it doesn't explain anything, and I won't be so arbitrary." Cang Yunmu said, "But after the autopsy, the result is the time when Miss Fanghua died. It was around Haishi, she had just returned to the building not long ago, and she had just left your residence at Xushi, which also coincided with the time Wu Zuo deduced that she was poisoned. Personal maid, she hasn't met anyone."

Sikong Mingyuan's face became a little dignified, and after Cang Yunmu finished speaking, he said lightly: "What can this explain?"

"This shows that if Miss Fanghua really parted ways with you during Haishi, and if she really returned to the building without meeting anyone, then she is the poison in your residence." Cang Yunmu said, "And She has been with you since she entered the Sikong Mansion, and with this arsenic bottle found in your yard, if you say that Miss Fanghua's death has nothing to do with you, who will believe it?"

"Whether you believe it or not, it has nothing to do with me at this time, so I don't know what kind of broken bottle..."

"The time of Miss Fanghua's poisoning and death, as well as the arsenic left in the bottle found in your yard, are enough to prove that the young master is suspected of murder." Cang Yunmu stood up and slowly scanned around, "If you can't find If there are facts that can overthrow the evidence, I have the right to take you to Dali Temple for questioning. You can even convict the young master based on this—maybe, you are not the only one who killed the young master, and your tea boy is also an accomplice, which is also unforgivable. "

Young Jin Gui finally slowly changed his expression. He looked at Sikong Mingyuan, his face pale with fright, "Master, I didn't kill anyone..."

Sikong Mingyuan stared fixedly at Cang Yunmu, his tone was indifferent but implied unquestionable firmness, "I didn't kill anyone."

Cang Yunmu looked back quietly, "All unfavorable points are directed at Young Master. Young Master said that he did not kill anyone, unless you can show evidence that you did not commit the crime."

"My son's words are the evidence." Sikong Mingyuan sneered coldly, and his words did not conceal his arrogance and superciliousness, "If you really kill someone, even a mere prostitute, I don't even bother to deny it. If you kill me, you will kill me. what?"

"What can I do to you?" Cang Yunmu looked at the arrogance and self-conceit that is unique to nobles in the brows of the other party, and couldn't help raising his lips, mocking slightly, "Master Sikong is so bold! If you really kill someone, I will kill you!" Since it should be dealt with impartially, brought back to Dali Temple for interrogation and investigation, and after the case is closed, the only thing waiting for you is to pay for your life—"

"My lord." Sikong Sheng, who had been sitting in the first place and remained silent, finally interrupted Cang Yunmu's words, and said surprisingly, "I recognize this bottle."

Sikong Mingyuan was taken aback for a moment, obviously very surprised, "Grandpa?"

Cang Yunmu turned his head, since he entered the Sikong mansion, he finally smiled a little at this time, "The old man seems to be able to provide some clues to help me solve the case as soon as possible."
