? Ruan Yuzhu nodded, and said again: "Then what were you doing at noon that day?"

Wu Qingqing said: "I'm taking a nap, and I don't know what's going on outside."

Ruan Yuzhu said: "Then at this time, where is your daughter? Also taking a nap?"

Wu Qingqing said: "No, she is usually in the small room. If her father is thirsty or needs to take a break, she will go to help the leader." He pointed to an inconspicuous room beside him. The small room turned out to be the place where Wu Xiubo usually stayed.

Wu Qingqing called out to her daughter, Meng Xi also took a look here, saw that it was Ruan Yuzhu, and wanted to come over, Ruan Yuzhu waved to him, meaning to tell him not to move, she would come to find him.

Meng Xi felt a little apprehensive, but she didn't dare to go over there again, so while making clothes, she looked into the shop and paid attention to this side.

At this time, following Wu Qingqing's call, Wu Xiubo timidly walked out of the hut. After seeing Ruan Yuzhu, he subconsciously looked at his father.Meng Xi waved to her, and she walked towards Ruan Yuzhu.

Ruan Yuzhu thought about the appearance of Wu Xiubo she saw in the yamen, and also thought about what Wu Qingqing said just now, so she nodded unconsciously - she is a pure and filial child!

The daughter is the lover of the father in the previous life, and it is normal for the daughter to be close to the father.

Then I thought again——if this is the case, no matter how innocent she is, she will lie for her father and play sloppy, right?

But in front of Wu Qingqing, I can't say that I suspect your daughter of perjury. If I want to interrogate her again, I can only put this matter aside for the time being and find a chance to be alone with Wu Xiubo.

Now that the tailor shop, blacksmith shop, and small restaurant have been investigated, the next step is to go to the tea shop opposite.

Shopkeeper Song of the tea shop saw Ruan Yuzhu coming, and hurriedly welcomed her in: "Master Ruan, what brought you here, please sit down, please sit down——Xiao Er, serve us some good tea! "

Ruan Yuzhu sat in the shop and looked at the opposite side. She could really see the two shops opposite, the blacksmith shop and the small restaurant, but she couldn't see the tailor shop.Ruan Yuzhu was a little disappointed - originally wanted to ask shopkeeper Song if he had seen when Liu Bisheng entered, but now it seems that he can't.

But Li Yunyan didn't say anything about such an obvious thing, so she must have discovered that there is no tailor shop here.

"Master, are you still here because of the murder in the tailor's shop?" Shopkeeper Song poured tea for her himself.

Ruan Yuzhu nodded: "When the case happened, Lu Shengcai wasn't blacksmithing, right?"

Shopkeeper Song said with a smile: "That's natural. Many people have asked me about this in the past two days. I have thought about all the details, but there is nothing special or suspicious about it."

Ruan Yuzhu was sitting in the shop. There were not many people coming to drink tea at this time, and they were basically idlers. People with serious business, how could they not come to the tea shop in the morning without working?However, many outsiders have come to the city recently, and it has indeed caused many people to lose their jobs.In terms of diligence, people in the city are still inferior to those in the country.

So at this time, the tea shop was full of idlers. Seeing that Ruan Yuzhu was dressed in ordinary clothes and hadn't faced them, he didn't care. Shopkeeper Song greeted Ruan Yuzhu just now, and the voice was not loud. These idlers He only cared about talking about himself, so he didn't pay attention to other things. It wasn't until shopkeeper Song raised his voice because he talked about his pride that he attracted their attention.

"Haha, those three families on the opposite side, I already knew something was wrong!"

"Yes, that widow Yue is very coquettish, she must have raised a man, can this be all right?"

"It's not just the Widow Song, you don't know, that Blacksmith Lu's daughter is young, but she has a curvaceous figure, she can do whatever she wants, and she will be absolutely coquettish when she grows up!"

"Do you still need to grow up? I think she looks like a man—only 11 years old...that chest...that ass...tsk tsk..."

"You bastard, even such a small one will not be spared."

"What's small? Look at her, she should be big, and she should be small. How can she not look like an adult?"

"Aren't you really interested in children?"

"You know what, there are a lot of people who like little girls. The youngest girl in the Cuihua Building is less than ten years old. In this surprise attack of the Qi State, Meng Tailor and Lu Tiejiang are not dead. If they die , these women are not all ours..."

"How could it be yours?"

"What do you know, there is no man in the family, who will support the family? In the end, it's not easy to catch!"

"Yes, yes, you have heard that the daughter of a large family in the northern hills of the city survived alone. The entire family property was burned down, and she was alone and helpless. Now that she has entered the Cuihua Building, she can live a life with two taels of silver. It’s late! Two taels, only two taels! If you put this in the past, you wouldn’t even be able to touch it!”

A group of idlers quickly dragged the topic away. Seeing that Ruan Yuzhu's face was ugly, shopkeeper Song hurriedly stepped forward to stop these people: "What are you talking about, didn't you see Master Ruan from the yamen here!"

Only then did the idle men realize that the woman sitting in front of them with their backs turned to them was the master of the yamen, they all shut up quickly, and the timid ones were already looking around, ready to find a way to escape.

Ruan Yuzhu didn't care about these people, she used to hang out in the bottom of the market, did the men there use any kind of swear words and filthy flirts?She only thought these people were farting, and she didn't take it to heart at all.

Ruan Yuzhu is observing the opposite side now, imagining the situation that day...

The three of them went into the tailor's shop one after another to steal the fabric. If they were themselves, they would be surprised—why no one came out to have a look?

But from the shopkeeper's point of view, he couldn't see the tailor's shop, it was a blind spot, so how did he know that three people came out of the tailor's shop?Is it the waiter?He walked back and forth in the whole store, he should not be like the shopkeeper, he was always behind the counter, with blind spots of sight.

So Ruan Yuzhu waved to the shop boy, beckoned him over, and asked him if he had seen the tailor shop at that time.

Xiao Er smiled and said: "Yes, I saw three people coming out of there one after another. Because shopkeeper Meng is a good person, sometimes he has a person who can't take care of him, and we all will help him take a look-by the way, shopkeeper Lu over there too."

Shopkeeper Lu refers to the blacksmith Lu Shengcai, and Xiaoer's words are not bad, everyone's distant relatives are not as good as their close neighbors, so of course they can help.If you look at it more, what can it be.

However, speaking this way, it was the waiter, not the shopkeeper, who saw all this at the time.Ruan Yuzhu took a look at shopkeeper Song: "Shopkeeper, did you see the three people, or did the younger brother see it? How did you see it when you were standing at the counter?"

Shopkeeper Song's face was slightly embarrassed, and he smiled and said: "Isn't what he saw the same as what I saw? He told me everything, and I will tell you the adults. It's the same. Besides, this kid Those who can’t speak, who are confused and whose words don’t convey their meaning, let me speak.”

Ruan Yuzhu looked at him, thinking that there were people in ancient times who liked to show off and were not afraid of the government!So he ignored him, and only said to the waiter in the shop: "Think about it carefully, have you seen anyone else besides those three people? The dead one, that is, Mr. Liu Cha in our yamen, have you seen it?" Does he go in?"

Xiao Er shook his head: "That's not true, I just saw him go into Mrs. Yue's small restaurant to borrow a toilet."

Ruan Yuzhu stood up abruptly: "What?! Why didn't you say something so important? When did it happen?!"

Xiao Er was taken aback by her, and subconsciously looked at Shopkeeper Song, who also blushed: "You man, why didn't you tell me this important thing, it was a waste of time!"

Xiao Er blushed, and didn't dare to say any more for a while, Ruan Yuzhu gave Shopkeeper Song a white look, and then said to Xiao Er: "Little Brother, think about it carefully, when did he enter the restaurant, and how long has it been since his body was found? Were there many people in the restaurant at that time?"

Xiaoer thought for a while, and said: "It was almost noon at that time, and it was the time to pick up customers. Our side was a bit more idle than the opposite side. Because usually the guests over there come here to rest after eating. Take a moment. The tea here is the best, and it is the habit of many old customers here to drink tea after dinner."

Ruan Yuzhu nodded, thinking that there were so many people at that time, did the people in the restaurant not notice?You must know that there are many people who borrow toilets at the back of the restaurant, and no one will ask more questions.And if it was very busy at that time, the little brother in the restaurant would probably just take a look at the person going to the back, and there was no time to say hello, so there was no need to say hello—it was for borrowing the toilet, not for eating.

Even if the other party is on business, I'm afraid there's no time to say hello at this time—in case someone comes back from the toilet and wants to eat, then it's not too late to say hello.

What about after that?

Did Xiao Er forget that Liu Bisheng had ever been to his restaurant, or did he deliberately not mention that Liu Bisheng had been there because he was afraid of getting angry?

"Then did Liu Bisheng leave the restaurant after that?" Ruan Yuzhu asked the waiter here again.

Xiaoer said: "Well, after that, our side also started to get busy, so I didn't pay much attention to the small restaurant, and I also took a look at the tailor's shop when I had time."

Shopkeeper Song also said: "I looked at the small restaurant before, because the more people there are, the busier our business will be in the future, so I took a look. After that, when we are busy here, there is no Need to look there again."

Ruan Yuzhu nodded - that's the reason!

So next, do you want to go to the opposite side and ask again?
