Mu Yunzhou suddenly realized: "Yes, we have never woken up so late before."
"So, what do you mean?" Lin Shuyao seemed to understand what Shen Qingxu meant, and then thought about the death of the proprietress and Lin Yifeng's daily habit of smoking tobacco!
Thinking hard!
Shen Qingxu nodded and continued, "Incense and tobacco. People who often smoke tobacco, how can they not know that the tobacco has been spiked? It's easy to put it in without others knowing, but what if that person knows?"
"Or maybe he put it there himself..."
"You mean... Lin Yifeng knew about it?" Mu Yunzhou's eyes widened, and he asked in confusion: "Aren't these two a couple? Why are they harming the person next to them? I just heard that this couple has a very good relationship!"
Mu Yunzhou had only heard of people killing their wives for immense wealth and power, but he did not understand why Lin Yifeng deliberately wanted to kill his wife!
Shen Qingxu put down the teacup in her hand, glanced at the opposite side, and sneered: "Not bad, a good idea, but maybe it's not voluntary, it's forced."
Mu Yunzhou has been extremely smart since he was a child, but when faced with this case, he still has no clue and can only frown.
Perhaps seeing Mu Yunzhou's worry, Shen Qingxu said: "It's not hard to understand. Lin Yifeng is more or less related to the inn we are staying in."
"Then what should we do next?"
"What else can I do? Just keep guard."
Shen Qingxu did not return to the inn, so the others stayed at the Mingyue Tavern. Because the scene upstairs was a bit horrifying, they had to find a few seats downstairs.
Shen Qingxu had trouble falling asleep at night. She lay on the table with her head buried in her arms, but she still couldn't fall asleep.
Suddenly, a strange fragrance filled the air. Shen Qingxu recognized it immediately after just a little sniff. It was the scent of the incense.
I finally waited for you.
Shen Qingxu thought to herself.
Just then, she felt footsteps getting closer and closer to her, and finally stopped beside the table. She clenched a knife in her hand and was about to fight to the death, but someone got there first.
The loud crash shook everyone awake.
Shen Qingxu looked up and saw Xu Xingyi holding a man in black by the collar and banging him against the wall.
After all, he was afraid of killing someone, so Shen Qingxu hurried forward to stop it.
When they stopped him, they saw that the mask of the man in black had already fallen off, and a not very pretty face appeared in the public's view.
He was still spitting blood from his mouth. The bright red blood was illuminated by the moonlight coming through the window. His face was pale, but was sparsely covered with bright red blood. The man suddenly burst into laughter, spitting blood as he laughed.
"Hahahahahahaha, everyone who knows what I look like is already dead. Looks like you won't live long..."
He laughed crazily and didn't seem like a human being. In other words, he no longer looked like a human being. His face was covered with dirt and his skin was damaged. There was no doctor present, so it was impossible to determine whether the ulcers and pustules were contagious or not.
However, if it is really contagious, this lunatic would have already started showing off like crazy, and would not have made such big talk here.
Shen Qingxu asked, "Why did you kill Lin Yifeng and his wife?"
The man in black used his mouth covered with blood to answer with disdain: "Oh, them? They all deserve to die, but I didn't kill them. You caught the wrong person. I just drugged them."
Shen Qingxu frowned and asked, "You didn't kill them? Then wouldn't it be unnecessary for you to drug them?"
The man in black was not at all flustered by this question. He still looked indifferent and contemptuous: "Oh, since I drugged you, there must be a reason for it. Do you think any Tom, Dick or Harry can pry open my mouth?"
"Hahahaha!"
Suddenly, he bit hard, but it was still too late. Shen Qingxu was the first to shout: "He wants to take the medicine to commit suicide, stop him."
This is how I was spared.
Otherwise, we won’t even know who the accomplice is.
Although he saved his life, in order to prevent him from biting his tongue to commit suicide, Shen Qingxu asked Xu Xingyi to remove her jaw, and then knocked him unconscious and took him to the inn.
When the people in the inn saw several people carrying a person back, a trace of panic flashed in their eyes. Even though it was only for a brief moment, Xu Xingyi still noticed it.
He squinted his eyes out of habit, and the shopkeeper happened to see this scene. Xu Xingyi made an excuse and said, "Sorry, there is sand in my eyes. Where is the well?"
The shopkeeper pointed them in the direction, and Xu Xingyi found the well following the direction.
Xu Xingyi casually fetched a bucket of water from the well, then casually patted his face. When he came out a short while later, he saw the shopkeeper staring at Shen Qingxu and the others for a long time, unwilling to let them out of his sight.
Xu Xingyi thought to himself: This shopkeeper is interesting.
Xu Xingyi walked out and went straight to the counter, just blocking a few people. He put his hands on the counter and asked, "Shopkeeper, are your relatives here?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Sir, you are really joking. If my relatives were here, would I still be alone guarding the store at this time?"
Xu Xingyi also smiled and said, "That's true. Don't worry. I was just thinking about it. I also have a relative. It's just that I asked him to carry out a drugging mission, but he messed up and was killed by the other party. I feel bad when I think about it now. But, think about it in a good way. He died because of failure. It can be regarded as a lesson for his next life. Don't you think so, shopkeeper?"
Shen Qingxu on the side seemed to understand something, and walked over, showing his two white teeth and sneering at the boss.
The shopkeeper wiped his sweat and responded vaguely: "Yes, yes, yes, yes."
Xu Xingyi did not stop talking here. He continued, "Boss, what do you think? Will they cook and eat my relative? Or will they eat him alive? Or will they scrape off his flesh piece by piece and let him die in agony?"
The shopkeeper's face turned pale and blue, and his whole body was shaking. Finally, he resisted the urge to retch.
Shen Qingxu and Xu Xingyi still had cruel smiles on their faces. Although Shen Qingxu felt a little disgusted now, everything she just learned forced her to do this, otherwise how could she expose the boss's true colors.
Mu Yunzhou and his companions were too far away from the counter to hear clearly what they were saying, but from the shopkeeper's expression, it could be seen that what they were discussing was definitely not a good thing.
Xu Xingyi continued speaking.
The shopkeeper had already bent over, his body curled up, his limbs twitching. He suppressed the urge to retch and did not stand up.
Shen Qingxu restrained her cruel sneer and looked at the shopkeeper squatting on the ground. Xu Xingyi stood behind her, holding his sword.
Just then, the man in black woke up.
He looked around and then shouted, "Dad! Run! They are here to catch you."
Several people looked at the same time.
After the shopkeeper twitched for a while, he slowly stood up half a minute later, his back gradually straightened, he sighed deeply and said, "Let my son go. I was the one who killed him. I instructed him to drug him. I also killed the couple in the tavern. This has nothing to do with him. Let him go."
The man in black shouted, "Dad! Don't you want to avenge Mom? We have waited for so long, Dad, how could you just...!"
Shen Qingxu had no time to care about the murderer's life and death.
She just asked calmly: "Why?"
"No reason!"
"I'm afraid your son is your only relative! You taught your son like this out of hatred. Can your wife rest in peace in the afterlife?" Xu Xingyi said coldly.
"You, what do you want to do?"
"Click!" With a wave of his knife, Xu Xingyi cut off the boss's son's ear!
"Ah..." The man screamed and covered his ears.
"No, don't hurt my son, I said!"
Mu Yunzhou curled his lips. He refused to accept the toast and had to see blood before he knew how powerful I was.
The shopkeeper said slowly, "Since you came here, have you heard about the murder case that happened in Mingyue Tavern three years ago?"
Shen Qingxu nodded. She had heard people say when she went to the tavern before that the Mingyue Tavern was not peaceful as two owners had died in succession.
The shopkeeper continued, "The person who died five years ago was my wife. Originally, the Mingyue Tavern was my family's property. I had an argument with her over trivial matters that day, and she moved over there out of spite. I saw that she was in a bad mood, and I was also upset because of family matters, so I didn't go to look for her. She was also unwilling to bow her head to me!"
"When I saw my wife again, she was already a dead body."
"Not long after the coroner performed the autopsy, I found out that my wife had been tortured to death."
"Later, I sold all my property and only kept this inn and the tavern opposite. I posted the tavern and waited for the two demons to take the bait!"
"The backyard of the tavern is hidden, and there is a wine cellar underground, isolated from the outside world. No matter how loud the noise is, no one will hear it. The demons really like to bring people to the wine cellar to commit crimes!"
"Not long after I posted the shop sign, two evil men came in disguise. As soon as they arrived, I knew they were the demons who killed my wife because they smelled of the same drug that my wife had."
"The two used the sale of alcohol as a cover to bring in their favorite prey and torture them!"
"There were so many deaths in the county that officials from the state government came to inspect. After that, the two men restrained themselves a lot and no longer tortured people to death!"
"I often collected evidence during my free time and handed it to the county magistrate, but after being drunk by them, he turned a blind eye to the injustice of my family."
"I have no other choice. I really have no other choice. The imperial court doesn't care about the trivial matters of ordinary people like us. We can only seek justice for ourselves."
"That couple, on the surface, seemed easy-going and easy to get along with, but in fact, they were cruel and ruthless. They often took advantage of the fact that there were many drunk people in the pub to keep people in the pub, and then tortured them inhumanely to satisfy their perverted hobbies.
"If you want to arrest someone, then arrest me. I feel so sorry for this family. I was already dead when my wife passed away. Now my son is grown up. I have lived this long. It can be considered that God has mercy on me!"
The man in black shouted, "Dad!"
The shopkeeper tried his best to protect his son from being implicated and took all the blame!
Because human life was involved, the two were eventually taken away together by the police.
Shen Qingxu looked at the two people being taken away, and sighed inwardly. Hurting people and seeing others suffer made him happy, so he deliberately destroyed other people's lives.
