The reborn elder sister has gone crazy with killing, and there is a crying monster behind her
Chapter 117 Smoking is harmful to health
"It was the first time I solved such a difficult case, and it was because of a family dispute. It was really difficult."
In the wind and snow, several people walked on the street. Shen Qingxu looked like she had lost all hope in life. The father-daughter entanglement between Zhang Jiuer and the county magistrate made her sigh and lament, and she no longer judged.
There was little expression on Mu Yunzhou's face, perhaps because of the wind and snow, or maybe because he was a little depressed.
Xu Xingyi and Gongsun Jiayan were in a very good mood, and neither of them complained too much along the way.
The market is indeed lively during the day, but today it is a little too lively.
"Hey, have you heard? Something happened at the Mingyue Tavern in the east."
"Ah? What's that? I haven't heard of it."
"The boss lady died for no reason."
"What? How could this happen? Did they offend someone?"
"Not necessarily. That tavern is the best at entertaining guests."
The voice was not loud, but Shen Qingxu heard it clearly. According to Shen Qingxu's personality, she would definitely rush over first, but the case she had just solved was too complicated and she was a little tired.
But we have to take care of it eventually. After all, we are here to gain experience, so there is nothing we can't take care of.
In the end, laziness was defeated by will. Shen Qingxu sat up straight, stretched his waist, and said to everyone with high morale: "Let's go and take a look."
Mu Yunzhou was not very tired to begin with, and when he heard this, he raised his legs and walked straight towards the tavern.
When they came here, they heard some things about Mingyue Tavern.
After all, although it cannot be called the most luxurious restaurant, it is also the most humane tavern.
When they arrived, many people had already gathered in front of the door.
Shen Qingxu's clear voice came: "Everyone, please make way. We are investigating the case."
After entering, he did not forget to say "thank you for your cooperation".
The layout of the tavern is not too luxurious. After all, I have heard that Mingyue Tavern often gives credit to others, so it is not surprising that they are not very rich.
Gongsun Jiayan felt uncomfortable after entering the tavern, but thought he was just overtired, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
Until Shen Qingxu asked: "Do you smell a strange smell?"
It was as if... there was incense mixed in the cigarette. Different from the incense in Baishui County, the dosage of this incense was obviously increased. But why did only the proprietress die, but there was no mention of any customers fainting?
However, after Shen Qingxu's reminder, the people who came later all covered their noses.
Before they could think carefully about the question, a person came down the stairs.
The young man had an untidy beard and it was hard to imagine how sloppy he was, or whether it had been a long time since he had cleaned himself up, not even washing his face.
There was a sense of dejection about this man, and she couldn't help but think of Zhang Jiuer. Even though the case was over, she still couldn't forget Zhang Jiuer's hysterical look.
Shen Qingxu didn't stay in a daze for long, because the young man discovered them when he went down the first step.
The guard suddenly increased: "Who are you? I clearly said that no one is allowed to come in. We are closed today. Get out."
Shen Qingxu was not frightened by the ferocious expression. Instead, he said politely, "Manager Lin, we are here to investigate the case. We heard that your wife..."
Before he finished speaking, Lin Yifeng shouted, "You don't need to care about my wife. Get out of here. I don't need you to pretend to investigate any case. Get out of here."
Someone like Shen Qingxu who doesn't like to be stubborn and nagging will naturally not beat around the bush, but with a look of regret: "Really not necessary? Your wife is dead, and you don't want to know who the murderer is?"
The people nearby: We didn’t realize you had such a sharp tongue before.
Alas, even though the situation has become like this, she still keeps reminding the man that his wife is dead. It’s really... heartbreaking.
Lin Yifeng used to have a good temper, at least when getting along with people around him, he was really good. But today was different. His wife passed away. Who could have a good temper?
Shen Qingxu observed Lin Yifeng's expression, trying to see if there was anything wrong with his actions.
But Lin Yifeng didn't care. As expected, he started smashing things and tried his best to drive people out.
At this time, several people had to put the investigation of the case aside for the time being.
Before leaving, Shen Qingxu said with deep meaning, "Manager Lin, I'm sorry."
Several people walked out of the pub, and the people outside the door looked disdainful.
"Still investigating a case? Are you here to investigate a case or to stir up trouble?"
There was a continuous sound of smashing and banging coming from inside, as well as Lin Yifeng's angry and mad roar.
Mu Yunzhou wanted to fight back, but was stopped by Xu Xingyi.
The few of them did not go back to the tavern to provoke Lin Yifeng, but instead found an inn nearby to rest.
It really came at the right time. Something happened in the tavern these days and people were in a panic. Even the inn next door had very few visitors.
When they arrived at the inn, Yuan Bao asked, "Miss Shen, aren't you going to investigate the case?"
Shen Qingxu said, "Investigate it. How can we not investigate such a strange case?"
Gongsun Jiayan asked, "Do you have a plan?"
Shen Qingxu shook her head and said, "No."
"What the hell are you talking about? I'm going to sleep now!"
"What I mean is, if you have a plan, you will be investigated. If you don't have a plan, you will be investigated. So why do you need a plan?"
Several people looked speechless.
In the end, it was Shen Qingxu who pushed them out of the house. Before leaving, she did not forget to say a caring word: "Everyone, sleep well tonight. The target will not run away."
The next morning, Shen Qingxu got up as usual, but saw a large group of people gathered outside the inn.
She stretched and greeted everyone outside the door: "Good morning, everyone! I'm the last one to get up!"
Seeing that no one was talking, Shen Qingxu asked in confusion, "What are you doing blocking the door so early in the morning?"
The person outside the door seemed to have not expected Shen Qingxu to be so calm and even in the mood to say hello. It seemed that the noise in the morning did not wake her up.
Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted, "You guys are investigating a case. You came into the bar yesterday saying you were investigating a case, but you ended up killing someone."
This statement did indeed cause public outrage.
Then the voices began to talk here and there.
"Are you investigating a case or killing someone?"
"Yeah, the boss's wife's death wasn't enough, so you killed the boss too?"
"Is there any justice in this world? What do you think this place is?"
Just like that, there was talk here and there, but Shen Qingxu seemed to be waiting for the farce to end. She didn't say a word until a few people heard the noise and came down to listen to what was going on.
Mu Yunzhou was the first to hear it: "So, the boss is dead too?"
Shen Qingxu looked nonchalant, as if she had expected this: "Yeah, just as I expected."
Then she turned her gaze to Xu Xingyi, "How about it, am I right?"
Xu Xingyi understood: "We think the same thing."
During the investigation these days, Xu Xingyi searched for clues and made inferences, while Lin Shuyao explained them to Shen Qingxu, and now they have made some progress.
Gongsun Jiayan: "So you had expected this to happen?"
Shen Qingxu didn't say anything, but from her expression, it could be seen that yes.
The Mingyue Tavern has not been as lively since Lin Yifeng's death, but this morning, it is at least lively once again.
Several people went to the Mingyue Tavern again. What was different from the last time was that this time they did not go in directly, but stood outside the door for a quarter of an hour.
Then he bowed and walked in.
The people outside the door watched this series of operations and couldn't stop gossiping.
"What's the point of doing this if the person is dead?"
"That's right. He never gave others an easy life when they were alive, but now he's eager to beg for forgiveness after he dies."
"Ah, speaking of which, the boss and his wife really have a hard life."
No matter what people outside said, the few people inside remained unconcerned, as if the heated discussion outside was not about them.
"How did you guess that?"
Gongsun Jiayan asked.
Shen Qingxu pondered for a moment and said, "Do you remember yesterday that I said there was a smell of cigarettes mixed with incense?"
Several people nodded.
"That's right. What kind of person would smoke? Lin Yifeng, right? He smokes but he's covered in a strong scent. How can he not feel it? Impossible. Who would be so stupid that he doesn't even know he's been scented? That's unless he's extremely stupid."
The girl's voice was particularly loud in the empty room.
Several people understood instantly, so, there was actually more than just a third party involved in all this, including Lin Yifeng, he was also the murderer!
Shen Qingxu saw that their expressions gradually changed from confusion to sharpness, and she knew that they also understood.
Xu Xingyi stood behind Shen Qingxu, looking pleased that his little girl had grown up.
Now that everything has been made clear, there is no need to spend so much effort on pushing the case forward, just get straight into the heart of the matter.
Shen Qingxu thought so.
"This is where the shopkeeper died."
The waiter who brought the person in was introducing the place.
Shen Qingxu nodded and thanked him.
After the waiter left, she began to check for traces around.
There were no signs of being tied up, but his lips were purple and his cheeks were pale, and it seemed that he had been tortured to death by chronic drugs.
Chronic drugs are very common, and you don't need too much. Just a little bit inhaled every day can kill a person. Of course, there are many things that seem harmless but are also listed as chronic drugs, such as tobacco!
But this is inevitably a bit far-fetched. After all, it is a bit absurd to say that people die from smoking. In fact, more of the blame lies in the excessive intake of incense.
Shen Qingxu could distinguish the smell of cigarettes and incense, but she didn't understand why cigarettes and incense could appear on the same person at the same time, and the person who smoked it was fine, but the people close to her died.
Mu Yunzhou also understood that the proprietress's death was caused by the cigarettes and incense!
Suddenly, Mu Yunzhou sneezed, his face towel fell down, and he accidentally inhaled a breath of incense. He hurriedly covered his mouth and nose.
After a while, Mu Yunzhou frowned slightly: "I seem to have smelled this incense before."
This sentence caught the attention of several people.
Mu Yunzhou continued, "I smelled the same thing at the inn."
Gongsun Jiayan was shocked and asked, "Inn? The inn just now? How can the taste of these two places be the same?"
Yes, how can two places that are completely unrelated have the same taste?
Shen Qingxu asked: "When did you wake up?"
Gongsun Jiayan never looked at the time, so he didn't say anything. Not to mention Mu Yunzhou, who never looked at the time all day.
The critical moment still depends on Xu Xingyi: "Probably around Chenshi."
"Around noon..."
Shen Qingxu muttered carefully again, and suddenly clapped his hands and said, "I just woke up at 9:00 pm, but don't forget, we always wake up on time at 11:00 pm."
