Detective Case of Black Belly

Feng Fei was confused by Yuanwai Liu, "This case must be settled. Yuanwai Liu's family's foundation in Lianxiang County, to be offensive, is deeper than that of my family."

Fu Qingkai raised his eyebrows after hearing his tone, "What's the matter? Is this your case or ours?"

"Oh! My lord!" Feng Fei showed a flattering expression, "You should do us this favor!"

Wu Yuyan listened to their conversation, and glanced at the old man standing in the courtyard.Seeing Wu Yuyan staring at him, the old man hesitated for a moment, stepped forward and bowed, "My lords, my villain's name is Liu Fu, and I'm Liu Yuanwai's housekeeper. I have something to tell my lord."

Seeing that he looked very honest, Fu Qing nodded.

Liu Fu took two steps forward, "My young master returned to the mansion three days ago, but because he was afraid that the master would find out, he slipped in through the back door. I happened to bump into him, but the master didn't know."

"Then when did he go out?"

"I don't know about this villain, I haven't seen it." Liu Fu frowned, and from time to time cast worried glances at Member Liu in the room.

"Butler Liu, can you arrange a time, I want to go to your house and ask if anyone else saw your young master that day." Fu Qingkai didn't want to let go of this clue.

"Then I have to ask the master for instructions first." Liu Fu said anxiously.

It's not good for Fu Qingkai to stand here and wait, swaying left and right, he still wants to go to Wu Zuo's room to have a look at the corpse.After entering the room, I found that there was only an empty chopping board.

Fu Qing jumped with joy, and turned around abruptly to ask Wu Zuo, who was huddled at the door, "Where's Liu Ou's body?"

"He was taken back to be buried by his Liu family." That guy acted as if it was a matter of course.

"The case is not closed yet, how can I let their family take them back!" Fu Qing was so happy that she was vomited.

"When did you take it away?" Wu Yuyan asked.Wu Zuo was a little afraid of this man, so he sneaked up a look and said, "It's only a cup of tea."

"Hmph," Wu Yuyan sneered, "You are so active, the white cloth that wrapped the body was taken away."

Wu Yuyan didn't say that Fu Qingkai hadn't found it yet, but when he said it, he saw that everything was really empty.Fu Qing ran out in a hurry, wanting to discuss with Mr. Liu whether the burial could be postponed, Wu Yuyan followed, and gave the old man a meaningful glance.

After listening to Fu Qing's request, Liu Yuanwai was so angry that his veins burst out. Fortunately, his reason was still there. He remembered that this was a county magistrate in front of him.

"Are all the people in the government so unreasonable and incompetent?" A crying female voice sounded.Fu Qing followed the prestige, and there was a very neatly dressed woman standing behind Liu Yuanwai, with blue clothes on a white background and a pair of plain silver bracelets, as if she knew there was a funeral going on today.His eyes were red and swollen from being wiped with a handkerchief, and he rubbed Yuanwai Liu's back from time to time to give him comfort.

Fu Qing rushed here to investigate the case non-stop, but was scolded like this, Fu Qing couldn't help feeling a little wronged in happiness, but thinking about the pain of bereavement that he just experienced, it's not so difficult to understand.

Master Li hurried out to smooth things over when he saw this, Liu Fu also quietly invited Fu Qingkai and Wu Yuyan aside, and said, "My master suddenly suffered such an accident, and his heart is sad and painful, but he is still a very reasonable person in essence. After my persuasion just now, I have agreed to let the two of you go to the mansion to ask the family members of Ding Ding."

"Oh?" Wu Yuyan was a little surprised.

"Is it convenient to go now?" Fu Qingkai asked impatiently.

"Okay, okay, the villain will make arrangements first." After speaking, Liu Fu left in a hurry.

"After he arranges it, can those servants spit out anything real?" Wu Yuyan pursed his lips and said with a little sarcasm.

Fu Qingkai thought about Wu Yuyan's words, "Why don't you go to the academy again? Students are always easy to talk."

"Okay, then go to Liu's house and be careful." Wu Yuyan instructed.

"The sky is bright, who can eat me?" Fu Qingkai said disapprovingly.

The two have since split into two groups.

When Wu Yuyan was alone, he often ran faster with the wind under his feet, which is why Fu Qing asked him to go to the academy and went to Liu's mansion by himself.

Young people are curious by nature, so Wu Yuyan asked the director to find a few people who were close to Liu Ou to discuss in detail in an empty room.

Wu Yuyan raised his hand, and the window stick fell down with a 'click', which startled the people outside, but restrained himself a little.

Wu Yuyan's eyes fell on a student who looked very thin. He was wearing a light gray robe and looked very weak.She has light eyebrows and thin eyes, small nose and small mouth, looks like a woman, is listless and timid, and she is the type who has been bullied in the crowd of students.

Wu Yuyan's mind flashed a silhouette who was leaving in a hurry, but it was somewhat similar to him.The student noticed Wu Yuyan's lingering gaze, and boldly glanced at Wu Yuyan.Wu Yuyan asked, "What's your name?"

"Sun Xiao." After Sun Xiao answered Wu Yuyan's words, his cheeks turned red suddenly.

Wu Yuyan:

"Cough," Wu Yuyan coughed lightly, "Are you all roommates of Liu Ou?"

"Yes, my name is Chen Ke." A more stable student said, seeing Wu Yuyan as a man of few words, he took the initiative to add, "Liu Ou plays truant every now and then, we are all used to it, so after so long God, nothing unusual."

"Then where does he play truant?" Wu Yuyan asked.

"It's just some song and dance clubs, wine shops." Chen Ke suddenly choked, as if his mouth was dirty with the next sentence, "Nan, places like Nanfeng Pavilion."

Wu Yuyan was not particularly surprised, and asked again, "Has Liu Ou ever had any grudges with others?"

"His family is rich and generous, what can he complain about?" Chen Ke was talking, and the student with triangular eyes on his right glanced at Sun Xiao with a very contemptuous look.

"What's wrong with Sun Xiao and Liu Ou?" Wu Yuyan saw this little look, and asked straightforwardly.

"What, what?" Sun Xiao stammered, and everyone in the room looked at Wu Yuyan in surprise.

"You gave him a disdainful look just now." The triangular-eyed student didn't expect Wu Yuyan to be so keen.

Sun Xiao huddled on the chair, not daring to raise his head, and the room fell into an awkward silence.

"Some, just some indecent things. Sun Xiao is usually an honest person. I don't think it has much to do with Liu Ou's death." Chen Ke managed to maintain his composure and explained.

"Whether it matters or not, you have the final say?" Wu Yuyan didn't intend to let it go like this, but seeing Sun Xiao alone sitting on a round stool next to him, far away from other students, he thought about what he said just now , I also understood a little bit in my heart.

Wu Yuyan asked some more questions about Liu Ou's temperament and preferences, whether there was anything unusual on the day he left the academy, etc. Everyone answered them one by one, and there was nothing suspicious.

Wu Yuyan couldn't help feeling a little discouraged, so he let the students go, and was about to go back to the yamen, when suddenly he heard a sound as light as a mosquito behind him, and Wu Yuyan turned his head.

Sun Xiao stood under the tree at the door, and said timidly, "He, he has been scolding his father's concubine for the past few days."

Wu Yuyan turned around, nodded and signaled him to continue, "Anyway, I just muttered a few words, saying that she is meddling, a bitch and so on."

Wu Yuyan's mind flashed the woman who was with Liu Yuanwai, who seemed very sad, but was too superficial.

"Does he have a bad relationship with his family?" Wu Yuyan asked.

Sun Xiao tilted his head to look at the sky, rolling his eyes up and down, with a strange expression, "I can't tell if it's good or bad, his father only raised him and didn't teach him, and his mother left early." After several conversations like this , but there are no clues worth investigating.

Wu Yuyan bid him farewell, and when he walked out of the academy gate, he unconsciously glanced back.Sun Xiao was still staring at him. When he saw Wu Yuyan turned his head back, he smiled even more, but his mouth was dry, and the flesh and gums in his mouth were sticking to each other, making his smile look particularly awkward and stiff.

Wu Yuyan was not a particularly thoughtful person, but he felt a little uncomfortable when he saw this smile, he shook his head slightly, recalled Fu Qing's smiling face in his mind for a while, and then felt better.

Fu Qingkai stood in the lobby of the Liu Mansion, and the hall was crowded with people.This has been delayed here for a long time, but there are no useful clues. Everyone just shook their heads and said that they have never seen Liu Ou come back. Fu Qingkai thinks it is impossible. Although Liu's mansion is big, there are servants everywhere, and Liu Ou is a young master. Going back to his own home, he wouldn't be hiding somewhere, right? How could no one see him?

The little concubine named Jiao Niang outside Yuan Liu always spoke eccentrically, which annoyed Fu Qing.She walked up and down with small steps, her face was very leisurely, but Fu Qingkai felt that she was a little imperceptibly anxious.

A little girl ran in outside and said that Mr. Liu had been intoxicated by a mouthful of phlegm, and the doctor said that someone should suck it out.A look of disgust flashed across Jiaoniang's face, and then she put on a worried expression and walked out quickly. The bright red embroidered shoes under her feet appeared and disappeared under the white skirt, and Fu Qing took a serious look. Thinking, he thought, 'This woman must be weird. '

As soon as the little concubine left, everyone in the room seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, as if the clay figure had been breathed a breath of immortal energy by the Bodhisattva, and suddenly came back to life.

Fu Qingkai took the opportunity to ask again, "Where does your young master like to go to play on weekdays?"

"Here, how can our servants know about the matter of the master." Even though the concubine is gone, everyone is still very cautious when speaking, lest they bring any trouble to themselves.

Fu Qing looked at their obsequious looks, and knew that there was nothing to ask, so he was a little depressed, so he simply fought a protracted war with them, and hoped that Wu Yuyan could gain some clues.
