When the shopkeeper saw Mo Shili's bastard gesture, a hint of embarrassment immediately appeared on his face.
Then, he first glanced at Li She, and when he realized that Li She didn't notice it at all, he lowered his voice and said.
"Li She's wife... stole someone."
The already low voice became even less audible at the end of the sentence.
If Mo Shili wasn't close enough, he wouldn't be able to hear clearly.
"Stealing someone?"
Mo Shili frowned.
This was inconsistent with his findings.
According to the information he received, Li She's wife should be tough, housekeeper and filial.
How you managed to avoid ruining your family when you met such a gambler husband is enough to explain everything.
When the shopkeeper saw Mo Shili frowning, he thought Mo Shili didn't believe it, so he immediately added.
"He's the neighbor next door to Li She's house."
"Someone saw Li She's wife coming out of his house more than once."
So that’s it!
After Mo Shili heard the shopkeeper's addition, he immediately understood.
It must have been Li She's wife who secretly went to a neighbor's house to withdraw money.
Then, Li She's wife was worried about being discovered by her husband, so she looked panicked.
And when people see him like this, they naturally misunderstand him.
Immediately, Mo Shili nodded in feigned approval.
Then, he changed the subject calmly.
"Shopkeeper, you have been running a restaurant in Chang'an County for so many years, so you must be a well-informed person."
"To be honest, I came to Chang'an County to find relatives."
As he said that, Mo Shili cupped his fists and raised his hands.
Ask people first and be a person first.
Without leaving any trace, Mo Shili first gave the shopkeeper a high hat.
As for finding relatives.
That has also been considered.
It's definitely not okay to talk about enemies, and it's also inappropriate to talk about benefactors.
You say you are an enemy, just like the shopkeeper in front of you, who is open to do business. In order to avoid trouble, you will say you don't know him or her.
If you want to talk about benefactor, if the deceased was not a good person and had a very bad reputation in the local area, it will only increase suspicion.
So, let’s just say we are looking for relatives.
Because the operating space is large.
If the shopkeeper's face looks wrong, it means he is a distant relative who is not familiar with him - he is just passing by for a visit.
If the shopkeeper has a kind face, then he is a close relative, as close as father and son - he is definitely here to seek refuge.
"Oh, tell me what your relative looks like."
When the shopkeeper heard the good words, he immediately laughed.
"He looks..."
Mo Shili described the male corpse in the coffin.
"It's Dr. Chen!"
Before Mo Shili could finish speaking, the shopkeeper said bluntly, and the smile on his face became even more kind.
"It turns out that you, guest sir, are a relative of Dr. Chen!"
"I'll ask the waiter to tell Dr. Chen now!"
The shopkeeper said this and was about to raise his hand to call someone, but was interrupted by Mo Shili.
"Shopkeeper, wait a minute. It's getting late now. It's not good to disturb my uncle like this. Besides, as a junior, how can anyone go and tell Uncle Shi?
Naturally, I have to wait until tomorrow to prepare all the gifts and come to the door in person."
"Yeah!"
"Look at me, I was so happy that I forgot about etiquette!"
The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly and slapped himself lightly on the mouth to express his guilt.
This appearance once again proved Mo Shili's previous guess.
The male corpse in the coffin has an extraordinary identity.
"My uncle is very famous locally?"
Mo Shili continued to ask.
"More than just fame!"
"Your uncle has noble medical ethics. Every time he administers medicine to save lives, the poor are reduced by half, and he also opens free clinics from time to time. In this area of Chang'an County, your uncle is a good man with a clear conscience!"
"You know about his family, right?"
When the shopkeeper mentioned Dr. Chen, he immediately gave a thumbs up sign.
Then, he quietly pointed at Li She who was eating and drinking heavily.
Suddenly, Mo Shili's heart suddenly felt.
Doctor Chen?
Is that Dr. Chen?
Mo Shili instantly thought of the 'Doctor Chen' mentioned by the customer with aphthous sores in the restaurant earlier!
At that moment, Mo Shili nodded calmly.
"Although I have just arrived in Chang'an County, I have heard of some."
"The commotion is really fierce!"
"Don't tell me!"
"It was your uncle who noticed something was wrong in the first place. It's thanks to your good deeds and virtues. Otherwise, something might have happened!"
The restaurant owner shook his head as he spoke.
Mo Shili didn't listen at all to what was said next.
There were ripples in his heart.
The first person to say that "live children and grandchildren will live long" was the highly respected Dr. Chen.
Based on Dr. Chen's understanding of his patients, it is impossible not to know that the patient with aphthous ulcers was a big talker, but he still said "live children and grandchildren" in front of him in order to spread the word in Chang'an County
The rumor of 'live descendants and longevity' has been confirmed.
From this point on, it can be seen that Dr. Chen is the one who planned it!
But now?
Doctor Chen died in the coffin of Li She's wife!
This was inconsistent with his initial inference that the organizers used the rumor of "Living Sons and Sunshou" to kill people.
How could there be any reason for someone to be killed?
Dr. Chen is not the planner!
The reason why the other party said "live and have a long life" in public is...
accomplice!
Dr. Chen is a friend of the real organizer!
Dr. Chen’s death was the silencing of his reputation!
The vision in Mo Shili's eyes gradually became clearer.
It is quite difficult for a highly respected doctor to do something similar.
Under normal circumstances, this is almost impossible.
but……
What about abnormality?
For example: Got caught!
Mo Shili recalled what he had seen and heard within one day of arriving in Chang'an County. He turned his head involuntarily and looked at Li She who was still chewing at his desk. There was an inexplicable meaning in his eyes.
He only wants to be sure of one thing now!
"Shopkeeper, it's getting late, I want to take a rest."
"I have to get up early tomorrow!"
After Mo Shili handed over to the shopkeeper, he went upstairs and returned to the room.
Just like before, he climbed out of the window.
The night passed quickly.
The sun had just risen, and the funeral procession left Chang'an County as soon as it started.
The people in the team all had sad faces.
Not sadness.
It is helpless melancholy.
Every clerk who was doing errands looked at Li She who was walking at the front of the team, smelling of alcohol, and dared not say anything in anger.
Nowadays, who doesn’t know that Li She and his family are all bad guys?
Whoever messes with it will be in trouble.
Maybe it will cost you your life.
Therefore, when faced with Li She who came to the door early in the morning and obviously did not intend to pay a single coin, these errand boys could only hold their noses and admit it.
After all, everyone is afraid that Li She will block the door.
If you really have to block the door, will you not be able to survive this day?
If retribution doesn't happen to you, but your parents, aunts, and children suffer retribution, you'll be crying without tears.
Therefore, anyone who is approached by Li She considers himself to be unlucky.
As for the coffin not being suspended for seven days?
No one dared to mention it.
Everyone wants to finish it early and save worry.
If you have to stay with this broom star for seven days in a row, will you survive?
It is precisely because of this that the clerks subconsciously speed up.
The tomb of Li She's wife is next to the grave of Li She's son.
Both of them died unexpectedly, and could not enter their ancestral graves where they "died", so they had to dig a hole on one side and bury them.
A group of people, working.
And everyone is quick and agile.
After a while, the grave of Li She's wife was dug.
Lower the coffin and bury it in the soil.
As soon as a series of tasks were completed, the people doing the errands left without even saying hello.
This time, Li She didn't stop him.
After everyone had left, Li She stood in front of his wife's grave without a tombstone, his eyes were cold, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and a sneer appeared.
That smile was full of pride.
That look in his eyes was full of joy.
And at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded——
"You are willing to buy such a good coffin, but you are not willing to erect even the cheapest tombstone. Isn't there a big flaw?"
