Chapter 181: Mei Wude, you deserve a thousand cuts...
Seeing everyone's expressions of surprise, Song Ci first smiled, then made a gesture that there was no need to panic, turned around, and asked Bai Ruxue: "Miss Xue'er, you said you beat up the red-sleeved girl.
Then he left, right?"
Bai Ruxue nodded firmly.
"Then Hongxiu closed the door by herself?"
Now Bai Ruxue was a little confused and turned to Ouyang Zi for help.
Ouyang Zi bowed slightly and replied politely: "Mr. Song, when we left, we didn't look back, but we heard the sound of the door closing."
Song Ci moved a chair next to him to the side, and with some force in his hand, the chair made a sound.
"Yes, that's the sound."
Bai Ruxue shouted out first.
"That is to say, after Xue'er and Zi'er left, before Hongxiu could close the door, someone rushed into her room, and that person even touched the chair?"
Song Ci looked at Qin Shaobai approvingly.
"Master Song, how did you know that the door was open and the thief touched the chair?"
"Didn't the little maid just say that the door was wide open? At that time, I thought, why would the murderer open the door so blatantly? Later, I discovered this."
Song Ci raised a small pebble in his hand: "Miss Hongxiu's room is very clean. I believe that this pebble cannot be from the original house."
Xiaolan took the stone and frowned slightly. She squatted next to the chair and examined it carefully. Sure enough, she found a small hole not far from the chair.
The hole must have been made by stones.
Xiaolan's eyes turned to the red sleeves on the ground.
"Miss Xiaolan is indeed smart as ice and snow." Song Ci praised, moving the red sleeves on the ground, and there was indeed a stone on the ground.
"What are you two talking about?"
Qin Shaobai became more and more confused the more he listened.
"She should have been hit at the Yuzhen point, so she became dizzy and even had a psychedelic reaction." Xiaolan said, putting the stone under her nose and sniffing it.
Sure enough, this stone contains the ingredients of psychedelic drugs."
"You are saying that no one came to Hongxiu's room, and no one came to kill Hongxiu, and it was all because of this little pebble?"
Song Ci nodded, then shook his head.
"Master Song, what do you mean by your ambiguous words?"
"Shaobai, come and see." Song Ci pointed to the scars on Hong Xiu's body: "These scars are relatively shallow, and many of them are irregular. I believe they were caused by impact. But, look at this dagger, it almost penetrated
He hit the red-sleeved girl's chest. This kind of force was definitely not caused by himself."
Qin Shaobai suddenly realized.
"You are saying that the person who killed Hongxiu girl was a master of hidden weapons. He first hit Hongxiu's Jade Pillow point with a stone. By the way, it was a stone coated with psychedelic drugs. Then he stood aside to watch the show and looked at Hongxiu.
The girl fell into that hallucination, beat herself up, and finally killed the red-sleeved girl with a flying knife?"
Song Ci and Xiaolan were both nodding.
"If it is really as you said, how cruel this person's heart must be, and how much grudge this person has with the red-sleeved girl." Qin Shaobai muttered, "Standing aside and watching, looking at a flower-like girl
The girl of Jade is bumping into the south and north walls, how can she do it?"
Song Ci and Xiaolan looked at each other and smiled. They had long been accustomed to Qin Shaobai's universal kindness, and they truly felt that this was what made Qin Shaobai so valuable.
"Brother Qin, that person may not have any grudge against Hongxiu. You have forgotten that Hongxiu is just an eye liner planted by some people here. Maybe that person also knows that Hongxiu has been discovered by me."
"When the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackeys are cooked. Why can people be so cold to each other?"
Song Ci said nothing, his eyes fell on Hongxiu's body, which was gradually stiffening, and he felt a trace of pain and pity.
Xiaolan walked gently to Qin Shaobai and held his hand: "Brother Qin, we must find the murderer of Miss Hongxiu, and we must avenge her. No matter what, she is a life."
"Yes, Master Song, Xiaolan, what do you two think?"
"This man is good at acupuncture. I think he may be related to the Duan family in Dali."
As soon as Song Ci finished speaking, Qin Shaobai and Xiaolan shouted at the same time: "That's impossible."
Seeing such a tacit understanding between the two, Song Ci was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "That's what I'm saying. There are many people in the world who have such acupuncture techniques."
"I noticed this dagger." Xiaolan pointed to the dagger on Hongxiu's body, "Look, the pattern on this dagger is very unique. It actually looks like a flying eagle."
Qin Shaobai immediately pulled out the history books in his mind. At this time, Dajin was in the early stages of decline, and its domestic affairs could not be solved. He should not think of coming to the Central Plains to cause trouble.
Jin Zhaoning had disappeared since the last time he came to make trouble, and Wangxiang Building was handed over to others to manage. It seems that he returned to the Kingdom of Jin with Mo Qing to handle the state affairs of the Kingdom of Jin.
However, during this period, another force was quietly rising, that is, the eagle on the grassland - Genghis Khan.
When the name Genghis Khan came out of his mind, Qin Shaobai felt panic in his heart.
The Song Dynasty was eventually destroyed at the hands of the Liao Kingdom. Don't want to be the one to add fuel to the flames. Then you will become a sinner in the history books and be nailed to the pillar of shame like Qin Hui and Shi Miyuan.
Wait, with Genghis Khan's upright character, he probably wouldn't do such a cruel thing.
Is it possible that other Mongolians could have done it?
No matter what, it will definitely not be a good thing for the Mongols to come to Lin'an City.
"Brother Qin, what are you thinking about?"
"Master Song, I wonder if you have heard of Genghis Khan?"
Song Ci was stunned for a moment.
"That's Temujin, a Jurchen tribesman and the leader of the grassland."
"Are you talking about Temujin, the Great Khan who just established the Mongol Khanate a few years ago?"
Song Ci asked, the panic in his eyes clearly revealed.
"Yes, the genius of the generation, Genghis Khan, doesn't just want to bend his bow and shoot the giant eagle, his heart is within the four seas and five continents."
Xiaolan couldn't understand Qin Shaobai's words, but she found that when Qin Shaobai said these words, the light in his eyes made him extremely handsome.
His gaze was as firm as Zhao Bai's, but behind Zhao Bai's firmness was a terrifying murderous intent.
As for her brother Qin, his resolute eyes were filled with kindness and kindness.
She really wanted to rush over, throw herself into the arms of the man in front of her, and tell him that she was willing to give everything for him.
Song Ci was chewing Qin Shaobai's words carefully. Finally, he raised his eyes and said word by word: "Shaobai, no matter what, we must defend our country."
Qin Shaobai nodded, but his heart was filled with infinite sadness.
The people of the Southern Song Dynasty should all want to protect their country, but the rise and fall of this country cannot be controlled by the common people.
"Master Song, maybe yesterday's case of ghost figurines will be an opportunity for us."
Song Ci suddenly raised his head and looked at Qin Shaobai. After a long time, he actually nodded.
"Sir, there is a letter from someone outside."
Qin An ran over and handed Qin Shaobai a letter.
Qin Shaobai opened the letter, took a look, and his eyes fell on Xiaolan.
"Brother Qin, what's the matter?"
Xiaolan was so frightened by Qin Shaobai's sight.
"It's okay, it's just that someone provided us with a little clue."
"This case is still..." Song Ci asked eagerly.
"The man told us not to think wildly, saying that he killed Hongxiu because..."
Qin Shaobai swallowed, as if it was difficult to say the next words.
"He killed her? Who was he and why did he kill the girl with red sleeves?"
Qin Shaobai moved his lips a few times and finally said: "Xiaolan, why don't you go and see if those two girls are back? I don't know how they explained the affairs in the yamen?"
Xiaolan is so smart. When she saw that Qin Shaobai wanted to send her away, she immediately guessed that the letter in Qin Shaobai's hand must be related to her.
"Brother Qin."
The moment Qin Shaobai raised his head to look at Xiaolan, Xiaolan had already moved behind Qin Shaobai, pinched it with two fingers, and snatched the letter from Qin Shaobai's hand.
Her face began to turn cold, then anger swept over her handsome face, and finally turned into a look of sadness.
"Mei Wude, you bastard who deserves to be slashed with a thousand knives, how could you do this? Do you want me to live with guilt for the rest of my life?"
Xiaolan shouted, ran to Hongxiu's side, and kowtowed to the stiff corpse.
"I'm sorry, sister Hongxiu, I'm sorry, don't worry, I will definitely bring Mei Wu De to you, and I will use his blood to wash away my sins."
