Therefore, when Leng Moran followed the government officials to Maoping Lane and asked people door to door, no one had any questions.
When he came to Liu Ju's yard, Leng Moran paid special attention.
It looked similar to other houses. Although it was shabby, it was very clean. When the government servants came in, Liu Ju was sunbathing with his wife lying on the deck chair.
Leng Moran glanced over and found the woman on the recliner staring at her, with countless contents flashing across her eyes.
Is this... asking for help?
But if he didn't have such a special ability as mind reading, how could he discover it?
Leng Moran glanced at the woman a few more times. Her eyes lit up and she opened her mouth to speak, but she couldn't make a sound.
The yamen officer here had already finished asking what he wanted to ask and was about to leave when he heard a thump.
The government officials looked towards the recliner, only to see that the woman on the recliner had fallen to the ground. She was lying on the ground, her eyes still looking straight over.
Leng Moran's frown deepened.
When Liu Juren saw his wife falling, he rushed over to help her up and put her back on the recliner. After making sure that everything was fine, he turned around and apologized to the government officials, "It was my wife who was rude."
The leading yamen officer was also very embarrassed. It was their coming that caused the person to fall to the ground, so he hurriedly left in embarrassment.
Leng Moran followed the government servants out and Liu Ju saw them off. Before he left, he looked back and found the woman lying on the couch looking up at the sky with a gray face.
Back at the county government office, Leng Moran went to see Magistrate Tao, who was mixing feed for the donkey.
Leng Moran didn't bother him. He watched Magistrate Tao concentrate on mixing the feed. When the donkey started eating, he coughed lightly to remind him.
Only then did Magistrate Tao notice Leng Moran and hurriedly saluted.
Leng Moran asked directly about Liu Juren, "I heard that he wants to marry another equal wife?"
County Magistrate Tao didn't think much about it, thinking that Leng Moran had heard about it when he went out with the government officials, so he said: "A member of the county wanted him to be his son-in-law, and what he liked was that he would never leave his original wife."
Attitude. He just wants to recruit a new wife. His family only has one daughter, and his son-in-law will inherit the family business in the future. Liu Juren has refused several times because he has to take care of his wife."
"Is that member still insisting?"
Magistrate Tao nodded.
After Leng Moran asked these questions, he didn't say much and returned to the inn where he lived.
Xiao Xixi had come back a long time ago. Leng Moran followed the government officials to Maoping Lane and was unwilling to take her with him, so she had no choice but to come back with Feng Yan.
Seeing Leng Moran come back, Xiao Xixi immediately stood up and asked him: "Have you found anything?"
Leng Moran didn't hide anything from her, and said bluntly: "Liu Juren has a problem."
Xiao Xixi's eyes rolled around and she asked, "Have you found the missing women?"
Leng Moran shook his head: "That's not true."
Xiao Xixi was a little disappointed, but still looked at him expectantly.
Leng Moran told what he saw from Liu Juren's wife's eyes, but he did not say how he knew it.
Xiao Xixi thought she had found out, and opened her mouth in shock.
"I have heard of similar cases before. The husband tricked his wife into pushing her off a cliff. I never thought that Liu Juren was more ruthless. The reason why he pushed her off the cliff was because of his own good reputation?"
Leng Moran took a sip of tea and said, "If no one finds out, he will probably take his disabled wife to his aunt's home, and then let his original wife die of illness in due course."
As for whether Liu Juren would murder someone from his wife's family, Leng Moran believed that he would. Even the life of his first wife could be murdered, so what did the lives of other people count?
Xiao Xixi didn't want people like Liu Juren to go unpunished. Although it couldn't be said that the missing women were related to him, he had done harm to others.
So, she said: "I want to try to treat his wife, but I don't know if it's feasible?"
Leng Moran looked at her, Xiao Xixi felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, and her eyes averted.
Leng Moran asked: "Can you cure it?"
Xiao Xixi shook her head: "I don't know. I studied medicine with Grandpa He for a short time, and I only know some medical principles. But I want to give it a try. Even if I can't cure it, I can write down her pulse and ask other doctors for advice.
.”
Since Liu Juren deliberately harmed others, it was impossible for him to really ask the doctor to cure his wife. Maybe he could be cured?
Leng Moran hesitated, and Xiao Xixi continued: "If we can cure her, maybe we can figure out Liu Juren's situation and determine whether the disappearance case has anything to do with him."
If it was really Liu Juren, then his martial arts skills were so high that Xiao Xixi would be in danger if he got involved.
Under Xiao Xixi's sincere gaze, Leng Moran finally nodded.
"Liu Juren and his wife live alone. If he is not at home tomorrow, I will go with you."
Xiao Xixi nodded happily.
Before going to bed, she communicates with the system.
"I want to help Leng Moran investigate the case. You have to sponsor me."
The system feels that it is getting more and more off-kilter. It is clearly an acting improvement system, but because the host wants to follow Leng Moran to investigate the case, it gradually changes...
[Host, if you perform acting-related tasks, you will get points]
Xiao Xixi said: "I disguised myself as a man during the day, where are the points?"
system:"……"
[The host did not have any acting tasks today, no one has doubted your identity, and you did not act deliberately]
Xiao Xixi refused to give in to the system and said: "I don't care about that. I want to investigate the case now. If you don't help me, I can't do it. You have to know that I am helping Leng Moran investigate the case."
She knew Leng Moran was very important in the system, so she said this deliberately.
The system really compromised.
[Well, the department can provide relevant help in investigating the case within a reasonable range]
The words "within a reasonable range" are very spiritual. Xiao Xixi asked: "Is the treatment of Liu Juren's wife considered within a reasonable range?"
The system was silent for a moment and had no choice but to confirm.
【Calculated】
Xiao Xixi then quit with satisfaction and fell asleep peacefully.
After breakfast at the inn the next day, Leng Moran took Xiao Xixi out.
She was still wearing men's clothes, and not many people looked at her as she walked on the street.
They chose a place close to the wall of Liu Ju's house and with few people. After confirming that Liu Ju was out, Leng Moran pulled Xiao Xixi over the wall and entered.
Xiao Xixi was amazed that Leng Moran still had this ability, so how good must his men who knew martial arts be?
After entering the courtyard, Leng Moran stood guard outside and asked Xiao Xixi to go in and show Liu Juren's wife.
Xiao Xixi was originally thinking about how she was going to fool Leng Moran in front of him, but now that she heard that Leng Moran would not follow her, she felt more relaxed.
When she walked into the house, she saw Liu Juren's wife lying on the bed, staring blankly at the beams.
