It didn't take much time for Li Nanke to meet Shi Yan, the boss of Fengyun Society.
Shi Yan is a very broad and fat man.
His face looked very fierce.
A pair of long and thin eyes are piercing, like lightning, exuding a domineering air that is difficult to conceal.
At first glance, he looks like a big shot who is good at PY.
"I wonder what the two officials came to see me for, Shi?"
In the living room, Shi Yan asked his servants to bring tea soup and looked at Li Nanke and Bai Buai with a smile.
Because he didn't know Bai Buai's identity, Shi Yan thought he was a member of the Night Watch Division.
"We are here to investigate the case."
Bai Buai spoke first.
Seeing Li Nanke frowning, Bai Buai continued: "This is the deputy inspector of the Qinglong Department of our Night Patrol Department, Mr. Li."
What the hell is the deputy inspector of the Qinglong Department?
Li Nanke was stunned.
Bai Buai blinked, as if to say: Zong Yuyu is dead, that position is yours.
Li Nanke was helpless and didn't bother to refute, so he said to Shi Yan: "Mr. Shi, we are here today to investigate a case. A woman named Zhang Ertao has been here before, right?"
"Zhang Ertao?"
Shi Yan looked puzzled.
Judging from his expression, it seems that he really doesn’t know who this woman is?
At this time, a guard next to him came to him and whispered something in his ear, and the latter suddenly understood.
"It turns out to be that girl."
Shi Yan smiled and said to Li Nanke, "This Zhang Ertao is the girl from the Zhang family in Xiaolei Village. She has indeed been here. I don't know what she did."
"She is already dead." Li Nanke said.
"What?"
Shi Yan paused in picking up the teacup, then raised his head in surprise.
Bai Buai couldn't help but grab the conversation again: "This woman committed suicide by hanging, and she even took off her clothes. So we came over to ask who she had been in contact with before."
Shi Yan put down his teacup and asked seriously: "Really dead?"
"real."
Li Nanke nodded,
Shi Yan frowned, with a touch of gloom and helplessness on his face. He waved his hand to the guard next to him with a cold expression: "Go and call Xiao Wen over!"
"yes."
The guard turned and left the hall.
Shi Yan sighed and said to Li Nanke and Li Nanke: "I have a subordinate, a brother who has been with me for three years, named Wen Wu. About half a month ago, he accidentally saved a woman who fell into the water.
That woman is the girl from the Zhang family in Xiaolei Village.
Heroes save beauties. As you know, that girl has developed feelings for my brother.
But my brother has a stupid head and doesn't like those romantic things, so he keeps avoiding that girl.
The girl came over two days ago. Xiao Wen might have been annoyed, so she said a few words. The girl might have lost face, so she left in tears.
I even said a few words to Xiao Wen at that time.
After thinking about it, after two days the girl's anger subsided, I asked Xiao Wen to apologize to the girl. I didn't expect...sigh."
Shi Yan shook his head, looking guilty.
Apparently, Zhang Ertao thought that because of his emotional frustration, he didn't think about it for a while and hanged himself.
"So this is ah."
Bai Buai joked, "It seems that Zhang Ertao is not very pretty."
After Li Nanke heard this, he curled his lips.
The other party only remembered who "Zhang Ertao" was after being reminded by his subordinates.
It shows that I never paid attention to it before.
Not to mention reprimanding one's brothers and apologizing to the other party.
Obviously, after hearing about Zhang Ertao's death, Shi Yan thought that his brother was responsible for the trouble, which led to the Night Patrol Department coming to investigate, so he improvised some excuses to exonerate Wen Wu.
It can be seen that Shi Yan wants to portray himself as a "good person".
Try to make a good impression on the Night Patrol Division.
After all, the Xuanyuan Society had just been destroyed, and the current situation was at the cusp of the storm, and it had to grow with its tail between its legs.
He has to build himself into a five-star good citizen.
There cannot be any accidents at this time that would stain the Fengyun Club.
After a while, the guard walked into the living room with a young man in his twenties.
The man's back was straight, his facial features were straight, his face was as tough as a knife and an axe, and there was a scar on the left side of his eyebrow.
This kind of energetic and tough man is still very popular with girls.
It's no wonder that Zhang Ertao had to commit himself to him after he was rescued.
If it were a short one like Guo Gang's, it would probably be something like "My benefactor saved my life, and I will repay it by working as a cow and horse in my next life."
"Uncle Hai, why did you come to me?"
Wen Wu stepped forward and saluted.
"You still have the nerve to ask me?" Shi Yan said with a fierce and tyrannical face and a stern tone, "Look at the bastard thing you did! That girl from the Zhang family in Xiaolei Village hanged herself!"
Wen Wu froze on the spot.
Shi Yan said: "I asked you to apologize, have you gone yet?"
Without waiting for Wen Wu to reply, he said angrily: "How many times have I told you that you must treat others well? Even if you don't like them, you must properly persuade them and don't hurt others with your words. Girls have shame, why don't you listen?"
Woolen cloth?"
Wen Wu lowered his head, looking gloomy and confused.
Li Nanke was too lazy to watch Shi Yan's performance and said, "Mr. Shi, I want to talk to Wen Wu, is that okay?"
"sure."
Shi Yan put on a smile, turned to Wen Wu and said coldly, "This is Mr. Li, the deputy inspector of the Qinglong Department of the Night Patrol Department. Just answer whatever he asks. Don't hide anything. Do you hear me?"
"
"yes."
Wen Wu nodded.
Li Nanke was afraid that Bai Buqi would gain a sense of presence again, so as soon as the other party finished speaking, he asked: "Besides meeting you that day, who else did Zhang Ertao meet?"
Wen Wu thought for a while and said: "I met Xu Tufu's wife. Mrs. Xu and she used to be good sisters in the same village."
After Wen Wu said the name "Xu Tufu", Shi Yan's expression changed slightly.
But soon, he covered it up again and returned to normal.
"Xu Tufu is..."
"Oh, he is also a brother of our Fengyun Society." Shi Yan stopped talking and said with a smile, "He went to Bozhou to visit relatives a few days ago, and he hasn't come back yet."
Keenly, Li Nanke realized that Shi Yan was lying.
"Then can I meet Mrs. Xu?"
"this……"
Shi Yan was a little embarrassed.
Bai Buai suddenly said: "He won't die."
"That's not true."
When Shi Yan heard what the young prince said, he waved his hands quickly and said, "Mrs. Xu is at home, but she suddenly fell seriously ill and has been in a coma for the past two days. When she wakes up, I will personally ask her to go to the Night Patrol Department to cooperate with the investigation.
.”
coma!?
Li Nanke's eyes flashed suddenly.
If it was Mrs. Xu who transferred the "curse" to Zhang Ertao, then she should be dead by now.
"There is no need to wait for her to wake up. I want to go and see her condition in person." Li Nanke said in a tone that could not be refused, "I hope Uncle Hai can cooperate with us."
"This must be, this must be..."
Shi Yan forced a smile, clenched his fists unconsciously, and said to Wen Wu, "Since Mr. Li wants to investigate, then take them to see Mrs. Xu."
"Yes, Uncle Hai."
Wen Wu nodded in response.
After watching Li Nanke and the others leave, the smile on Shi Yan's face faded and became much gloomier.
He tapped his fingers lightly on the table, lost in thought.
After a long time, he got up and went to the inner hall, picked up a pen and wrote a line of words.
After tearing off the written note, he took out a carrier pigeon from the birdcage, rolled up the note, and stuffed it into a thin bamboo tube.
…………
Under the leadership of Wen Wu, Li Nanke met Mrs. Xu.
The other party was indeed unconscious on the bed.
The woman's delicate face looked a little dull, as if it had lost its luster and been washed by the wind and sand.
"Zhang Ertao and Mrs. Xu were from the same village and had a good relationship. Last time Ertao came to see me, one of the reasons was to visit Mrs. Xu."
Wen Wu said softly.
"How long did Zhang Ertao stay?" Li Nanke asked.
"Stayed with me all night."
"One night?"
Li Nanke got some information instantly.
Being able to guard her for one night is enough to show that Zhang Ertao and Mrs. Xu have a very good relationship and are almost like sisters.
But it also shows that the two of them have been alone.
Mrs. Xu did not die, but fell into a severe coma. Does this mean that she committed suicide before and was saved?
It can be seen that there are no traces or bruises on Mrs. Xu's neck.
"When she left the next day, was there anything unusual?"
Li Nanke asked again.
"Abnormal..." Wenwu thought for a moment and said, "I just looked a little tired, but I didn't pay much attention to anything else."
Seeing Li Nanke deep in thought, Wen Wu asked: "Master Li, did Er Tao really commit suicide?"
Bai Buai grabbed the conversation again, "Just answer our questions obediently. Stop asking about this and that. Do you know what a confidential case is?"
Wen Wu smiled and didn't ask any more questions.
Looking at Mrs. Xu on the bed, Li Nanke suddenly thought of a possibility.
Could it be that this woman fell into a red rain dream?
So he tried to test it, but to no avail.
But the woman's symptoms are very consistent with the red rain dream.
"Have you ever seen a doctor?"
"I found him, I just asked him to rest for a few days," Wen Wu said.
Li Nanke stared at Wen Wu, "Where has Mrs. Xu been? Did her husband really go to Bozhou to visit relatives? I hope you can answer truthfully."
"Yes, answer truthfully! Otherwise, your boy will be more handsome!"
Bai Buai said fiercely.
This young prince worked very hard to participate in solving the case.
"Uncle Hai just said it."
Wen Wu's tone was neither humble nor overbearing.
Uncle Hai has already said it, so I don't have the right to answer your question anymore.
Li Nanke heard the unspoken words of the other party, took a deep look at the other party, and left with the young prince.
The case has reached a dead end here.
In any case, this Mrs. Xu is the key to the entire case.
In addition, whether Mrs. Xu's husband went to Bozhou or not, we will know after we go back and investigate.
After everyone left, Mrs. Xu's room returned to silence.
I don’t know how long it took, but Mrs. Xu suddenly sat upright, her eyes still closed.
She got out of bed and came to the mirror like a puppet.
Pick up the wooden comb and gently comb your hair.
In the mirror, a strange woman's face was reflected.
