Chapter 167: Leaving and Returning (Additional Chapter 4)
According to Shangguan Peining's explanation, the murderer appeared in the opposite direction to Chai Yan, that is, in the south of the city. At this time, the man was still moving into the city.
Yuan Yuan couldn't figure out why the murderer went and came back, and Chai Yan couldn't figure it out either.
Following Shangguan Peining's guidance, Chai Yan and Yuan quickly moved closer to the murderer's location after returning to the city.
An hour later, the two came to a familiar street corner.
"Chai Yan, are you right? Yu Zhongheng's home is in front of you!"
Twenty feet in front of where Chai Yan and Yu Yuan were standing was the Yu Mansion.
Chai Yan frowned and said, "Yes, it's right here! The murderer is nearby. To be precise, he is coming this way!"
With that said, Chai Yan took Yuan and hid around the corner. The two of them leaned against the wall and secretly monitored everything on the street.
"Come on, come on, that's the man!" Chai Yan suddenly became alert and pointed at a figure appearing on the street in front of him in a concealed manner.
The street where Yu Zhongheng's family lives is not a prosperous area, and there are only a few pedestrians on the road, so once a strange figure appears, there is no way to escape Chai Yan's eyes.
Following Chai Yan's fingers, Yuan Yuan's eyes focused on a man wearing a bamboo hat and dressed as a warrior.
Because he was wearing a bamboo hat, he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but judging from his appearance, he was well-proportioned and quite tall. He was holding a long sword with a dark green scabbard in his hand.
Shangguan Peining told Chai Yan that the long sword in the dark green scabbard smelled of the blood of Ouyang's family.
Chai Yan immediately remembered the wounds on the five corpses, all of which were caused by a sword piercing the heart, even the two children were no exception.
The two of them looked around the corner for a while, and Yuan suddenly said: "What are you waiting for? Go up and arrest them!"
Having said that, Yuan Yuan took off the black iron sword and showed up. Her sword practice has been somewhat successful these days, so she just wants to try it with this guy!
Chai Yan almost hugged Yuan back, then shook his head and hissed: "What's the rush? Don't you think there's something wrong with this person?"
"Something's wrong?" Yuanyuan was startled, and then he looked at the man in the hat: "What's wrong? No, he's gone!"
When Yuan Yuan went to look, the man in the hat had disappeared.
"It's all your fault, he disappeared!" Yuyuan was a little angry.
Chai Yan's expression was calm and calm, and he said calmly: "Don't worry, I'm still here..."
Shangguan Peining has locked the man in the hat, and it is impossible to lose the target in a short time.
After a while, Yuan Yue said again: "Look, he's back again!"
The two of them looked at each other and saw that the man in the bamboo hat was indeed back again. Judging from the direction he was walking in, he seemed to have come out of the alley next to Yu Zhongheng's house.
Next, the man in the hat walked into the alley again, and after disappearing for half a quarter of an hour, he returned to the street.
"What is he doing? Is he lost?" Yuyuan felt very strange.
Chai Yan shook his head, pondered for a moment and then said: "No, he is stepping on the spot!"
"Step on it?" Yuanyuan asked in surprise.
Chai Yan secretly observed the man in the bamboo hat and whispered: "Look at him, he has walked around Yu Zhongheng's house two or three times. What is he doing if he is not checking out the spots? Is he lost?"
"You mean, he is stepping on Yu Zhongheng's family's point?" Yuyuan was surprised.
Chai Yan asked: "Do you still remember what Yu Zhongheng said? His family and Ouyang's family are old friends. Their fathers once practiced medicine together in the capital. Later, I don't know why, but they suddenly moved to Huzhou to settle down! If I hadn't
You guessed it wrong, the death of the Ouyang family must be related to the Yu family! As for the specific reason, you have to ask the murderer himself!"
Yuan Yuan frowned and nodded, Yu Zhongheng indeed said these words.
Chai Yan watched the man in the hat's every move intently, when the man in the hat suddenly turned back and left the door of Yu Zhongheng's house.
After waiting for a while, the man in the bamboo hat didn't come back. Just when Yuan Yuan was about to ask a question, Chai Yan waved to Yuan Yuan and said, "Follow me!"
Chai Yan brought Yuan Yuan to the door of Yu Zhongheng's house. Just as he was about to knock on the door to call for someone, Yuan Yuan stopped him and asked in confusion: "Why are we knocking on his door if we don't chase people?"
"What for? Haha, of course I'm here to wait and see!"
Yuan Yuan smiled confidently, and then knocked on the door of Yu Zhongheng's house.
Chai Yan had already confirmed with Shangguan Peining that after the man in the hat left just now, his position was fixed somewhere nearby and would not move. Chai Yan guessed that the man in the hat was resting somewhere, waiting for the opportunity to act.
As for the target of the action, it will undoubtedly be the Yu Zhongheng family!
"Mr. Chai, Miss Yuyuan? Haven't you already..."
The person who opened the door this time was Tweety. Tweety was very curious that the two of them were back again.
Chai Yan was not polite. He opened the door and entered the courtyard with Yuan Yuan. Then he closed the door and bolted it himself.
"Where is your young master? Take me to see him quickly!" Chai Yan said urgently.
Cui'er knew that there must be something important, so she didn't waste any time and led the two of them to the study.
"Master, Master..."
Yu Zhongheng was writing a story in his study when he was suddenly interrupted by Cui Er's voice, and he immediately became unhappy.
"Didn't I tell you to stay outside and not disturb me?" Yu Zhongheng's voice was very irritable.
When Yu Zhongheng saw Chai Yan and Yu Yuan appearing outside the study, the expression on his face changed: "Mr. Chai, you..."
Chai Yan walked into the study, threw the baggage on the ground, and said: "Master Yu, that five hundred taels is back, and he is ready to attack your family!"
"Ah? What five hundred taels... Mr. Chai, what are you talking about?" Yu Zhongheng was completely confused about the situation.
Chai Yan immediately told Yu Zhongheng about the mysterious man in the hat who was visiting the place outside, and solemnly warned him that the man in the hat was the murderer of Ouyang's family of five!
If the estimate is correct, the murderer's next target will be Yu Zhongheng!
After hearing this, Yu Zhongheng was confused. Why did the murderer come to kill him for no reason?
Yu Zhongheng told everyone with confidence that he has no enemies, absolutely not!
Chai Yan shook his head slowly, stared at Yu Zhongheng and said, "He is your father's enemy!"
