Chapter 5 Did You Kill It?

At this moment, someone said "nine girls" came.

Nine Girls is the old bustard of this planting flower shop, called Jiuxiang, because she is young and beautiful, so she is called Nine Girls.Xia Chu had heard of this name before and knew that she was his immediate boss, but he had never seen her.As soon as someone said it, Xia Chu turned around and saw a woman casually walking in outside the gate of the north courtyard of the Yayuan. She was dressed in hazy robes and covered with a moon-white padded cloak. They are all unique but not very romantic.

Xia Chuxiao was young, but she didn't expect to be so young, she looked only twenty years old.Behind Jiuxiang was a man, tall and long-legged, wearing a light fur gown with a belt, he looked like a rich man.

After that Jiuxiang came in, he arranged for someone to bring in more lamps, and asked if he had reported to the official. After getting an affirmative answer, he wrapped up the cotton cloak on his body, sat down in the veranda, and laughed with the man behind him. In a word, it was calm and breezy, as if he didn't think it was a big deal to die.

Xia Chu couldn't help frowning, turned his face away from looking at them, and asked Li Erping in a low voice: "Erping, did you really kill him?"

Hearing this, Li Erping shrank his neck subconsciously, trembling all over, watching Xia Chu shake his head desperately.

"No?" Xia Chu felt a little relieved, turned his head and glanced at Ruan Xi, Ruan Xi wiped the corner of his eyes, comforted Li Erping softly and said: "I knew it, I knew it. It's fine if it's not, don't be afraid... ..."

Before Ruan Xi finished speaking, Li Erping said, "I, I don't know..."

Xia Chuyi couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and was about to ask again, when someone beside him interrupted: "Why don't you even know if you killed yourself or not?"

The tone is light and fluttering, and there seems to be a little laughter.

Xia Chu followed the voice and saw that it was the man who was walking behind Jiuxiang just now. He didn't know when he was squatting next to her, with his elbows on his knees, and asked Li Erping what he said while casually looking around.

At the beginning of Xia, seeing that he looked like five people and six people, his expression didn't look dignified at all, his phoenix eyes were slightly raised, and he seemed to be smiling, so he couldn't help feeling angry, and blurted out: "I said this, you are asking questions. Are you still watching the fun here?"

Jiang Xiyuan smiled slightly, and said jokingly: "What? Are you not allowed to ask questions or watch the fun?"

Xia Chu snorted coldly, "There is a policeman in the case... the government, it's not up to others to point fingers, turn around and destroy the scene and imply witnesses, and cause trouble for others. It's even more wrong to watch the excitement, a human life, what is it?" Lively? They are well-dressed, without any sympathy."

Jiang Xiyuan raised his eyebrows, he was slightly annoyed but he didn't change his expression. After Xia Chu finished speaking, he said, "Then are you asking questions or watching the fun?"

Xia Chu said with a sullen face, "She is my friend."

Jiang Xiyuan pointed to the corpse from a distance, "That's my friend."

Xia Chu was stunned by him, knowing that this person was just talking up, but he couldn't say anything about him.Ruan Xi, who was beside him, poked Xia Chu with his elbow, and hurriedly asked her to stop talking. Xia Chu gave Jiang Xiyuan a cold look, ignored him, picked up the conversation again, and asked Li Erping in a slow voice: "What happened? Do you still remember? Don't panic, think slowly."

"I... I just delivered the washed cups and saucers to the tea room in the elegant courtyard. After delivering them, I walked out to the backyard. When I passed the door of that room, a man came out. I took half a step back to make way, but, But……"

Xia Chu looked back, "Which door is the door?"

"It's the one on the west end of the South Corridor." Li Erping looked over, and when he glanced at the corpse, he flickered in panic, lowered his head, and trembled slightly.Xia Chu lightly stroked Li Erping's shoulder, and encouraged him: "Don't be afraid, Erping. Keep talking."

Li Erping took a deep breath and continued: "He smelled of alcohol. I gave way to him but he didn't go. He reached out to grab me. I pushed him away and ran to the backyard. He grabbed me from behind within two steps. I hugged it..." Li Erping couldn't help crying again when he said this, and squeezed Xia Chu's hand, his voice became louder, "What he said is disgusting, his hand... still touching..., I'm terrified I just took out the knife. I just wanted to scare him. I didn’t want to kill anyone! I really didn’t want to kill anyone. I don’t know why he died, I really don’t know…”
