Chapter 101 One step closer to the truth(1/2)

"Dongchang, have you heard about Liang Hexiang's situation?"

Putting on his gloves, Chu Mu Feng asked while carefully searching along the study room to see if there was anything missing.

Pei Dongchang immediately took the confession and said: "The deceased Liang Hexiang was a rich man in Beiping City. What is interesting is that he was not engaged in any industry, he was just rich."

"This is his third aunt's house. When the incident happened, the third aunt was cleaning up and taking off her makeup in the bedroom. She said she didn't hear any sounds. Then she came over to call Liang Hexiang to rest, only to find that he had been killed."

During Pei Dongchang's report, Chu Mufeng opened the standing cabinet in front of him and looked carefully with a flashlight.

There's nothing in there, so there should be nothing wrong with it.

Just when he was about to close it, his eyes suddenly froze.

Huh?

There is a small blue pill stuck in the gap in the corner of the cabinet that no one would notice.

This pill is about the size of a mung bean, and the most important thing is that it has the same color as the cabinet, so it can be easily overlooked if you don't pay attention.

After picking up the pill and looking at it, Chu Mufeng secretly came to a conclusion.

This pill should belong to the murderer.

If it was taken by Liang Hexiang, it would not appear here.

After putting away the pills, Chu Mufeng walked around the room again. After making sure that nothing was missing, he directly asked the third aunt to come in.

When the third concubine walked into the study and saw the tragic death of Liang Hexiang, her legs were shaking and she didn't even dare to look at him again.

Her face was a little pale, her lips kept trembling, and she said weakly: "Officer, can we go out and ask questions?"

"No, it's right here!"

Chu Mufeng glanced over and asked indifferently: "Your name is Huang Yuanyuan?"

"Yes, my name is Huang Yuanyuan, and I am Liang Hexiang's third concubine. But police officer, I really don't know who killed the master. I..."

As she spoke, Huang Yuanyuan burst into tears.

She had suffered enough injustice that night.

She was already frightened enough that Liang Hexiang died here. Who would have thought that after the concubines outside came over, they would be scolded and beaten, and they still catch her and won't let go.

I provoked whomever I provoked. If the master were still alive, would you dare to do this?

Aren’t you just thinking about this house that I gave to me? I tell you, I will never let it go.

"Okay, stop crying and talk nicely!" Chu Mufeng frowned and said.

Since he is handling a case, he will naturally handle business matters and will not be too sympathetic to Huang Yuanyuan.

The third aunt in front of me is acting so charming and aggrieved now, but she is obviously not a good person.

Huang Yuanyuan really didn't dare to cry anymore.

"You and Liang Hexiang shouldn't be the only ones living in this courtyard, right?" Chu Mufeng put his hands behind his back and asked in an indifferent tone.

"Officer, apart from me and the master, there is usually only one maid serving here. However, the maid's family has something to do recently, so she asked for leave. She has been gone for three days, and it will take seven or eight days to come back." Huang Yuanyuan.

Answer quickly.

"Where did you go tonight?" Chu Mufeng asked.

"Tonight I followed the master to attend a charity auction, which was held at the Swan Hotel."

"How did you come back?"

"When I came back, I took a car. The car belonged to my family and the driver was Lao Wang." Huang Yuanyuan learned the lesson this time and told Chu Mufeng everything about her whereabouts tonight without waiting for Chu Mufeng to ask again.

come out.

“Swan Hotel.”

Chu Mufeng knew that it was a large hotel. As for the charity auction, with a little investigation, he could know the authenticity of Huang Yuanyuan's words.

"Who did you meet at the cocktail party? What did you say?" Chu Mufeng asked.

"Officer, I met a lot of people, and I just watched from the side. The master went over to greet and chat with them."

"Really? Think carefully, do you know anyone?"

"I know him!"

Huang Yuanyuan bit her lip, lowered her head and thought. When her eyes accidentally glanced at Liang Hexiang's body, she trembled with fear again.

Desperate to leave here, she quickly said: "Police officer, I know Boss Jia who is in the silk business, and Boss Dong who is in the Western goods business... I also talked to Mr. Li from Qinghua Hall, and..."

"etc!"

Chu Mufeng suddenly raised his arm, interrupted Huang Yuanyuan's words, and asked in a solemn tone: "Who were you talking about just now?"

"Who? Who was I talking about just now? Yes, it's Mr. Li, yes, it's Li Mingli. He also knows our master. I went to Jingxiang Tower with him to listen to a play and met him before!"

"He also has that opera singer with him. What's his name? By the way, Little Peony!" Huang Yuanyuan said everything she saw.

Chu Mufeng's eyes couldn't help but narrow in amusement.

It’s a bit interesting!

The dead Huang Zhang went to Jingxiang Tower to meet Li Mingli.

Now Liang Hexiang, who went to see Li Mingli, is also dead!

Moreover, when Huang Zhangzhang was riding in a rickshaw, the person he was mumbling was Fatty Liang. If you want to die, don’t drag me with you. What does this mean? It means that Liang Hexiang is the Fatty Liang that Huang Zhangzhang was talking about.

As long as it is confirmed that they are acquainted with each other, then the connection will be established.

"Huang Yuanyuan, how is the relationship between Huang Zhangzhang and Liang Hexiang?" Chu Mufeng asked seemingly casually.

"Huang Zhang?"

Huang Yuanyuan frowned and said, "The relationship between the master and him doesn't seem to be very good. When the master mentioned him at home, he got very angry."

middle!

Chu Mufeng nodded secretly, at least he was sure of this.

If the relationship between the two cannot be 100% certain, the investigation of the case will become more complicated.

"Do you know what business dealings the two of them usually have?" Chu Mufeng asked.

"I'm not sure about this!"

Huang Yuanyuan covered her pounding heart and said timidly: "I got so angry when I mentioned this name. You said that I am a woman, how dare you ask questions casually."

"Do not you know?"

Chu Mufeng asked relentlessly: "Think about it carefully, did we meet each other in Jingxiang Building? Did we meet him because of Li Mingli?"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Officer, I really don't know, but when we went to Jingxiang Building, we didn't seem to encounter Huang Zhang Zhang once." Huang Yuanyuan shook her head vigorously.

, said with an anxious expression.

"Is that so?"

The question in Chu Mufeng's heart was still not solved, so he continued to ask.

Each of these questions was more cunning and weird than the last, and Huang Yuanyuan who asked them had no time to make them up, so she could only tell the truth.

Besides, she wouldn't make up anything about her current panic. There was no way to deliberately act out that kind of fear, at least it could be seen in her eyes.

"Okay, you can leave now, but you can't leave Beiping City. To be precise, you can't leave our monitoring range. Do you understand?" Chu Mufeng said after finishing his question.

"Yes, yes, I know, I know, I will definitely not run around!" Huang Yuanyuan nodded quickly.

After watching Huang Yuanyuan leave, Chu Mufeng directly asked Wang Gezhi to ask the remaining concubines for their confessions. If he wanted to know Liang Hexiang's social connections, asking them was the fastest way.

After finishing his work, it was already two o'clock in the morning. Chu Mufeng silently stared at the four big words "Death is worthy of death" on the wall, and waved his hand to give the order to close the team.



Jingyang Hutong.

After returning home and rinsing with cold water, Chu Mufeng couldn't fall asleep, so he stood up and walked back and forth in the room, constantly sorting out the clues at hand in his mind.

Huang Zhangzhang was killed, and the four words were "helping the emperor to do evil".

When Liang Hexiang was killed, he deserved his death.

Could it be that the real crimes of the two people are hidden in such words?

After all, aiding the tyrants and committing crimes have different meanings, so naturally they cannot be treated as the same.

What is certain now is that Huang Zhangzhang and Liang Hexiang knew each other.

The two met Li Mingli again.

So the three of them knew each other, but their acquaintance seemed to hide something else.

Let’s not talk about Li Mingli’s side, let’s just talk about Huang Zhangzhang and Liang Hexiang. From Huang Yuanyuan’s words, we learned that Liang Hexiang had no good impression of Huang Zhangzhang, and Huang Zhangben also scorned Liang Hexiang.

How could they do this?

If he said the relationship was ordinary, Chu Mufeng would never believe it.
