Chapter 118 Death
Author: Siwu
"It's brainless and not delicious." A bird fell on the windowsill, and the maids who were sweeping were not surprised.
"Look at it, it's the parrot, here again."
"But this time the master is not at home and can't feed it."
"Who is this parrot raised?"
"Who knows, no matter whose family it belongs, this parrot is probably because he is the master and always comes to ask for food and drink."
The parrot kept repeating the sentence "I have no brains and is not delicious" and the three maids saw it strangely, "Can this parrot learn anything?"
"Parrot, learn from me, let's talk about fairies and listen to it."
"What a fairy, why don't you call me sister? I'll find some food to give it to you."
The parrot seemed to not understand. It tilted its head and looked at it for a moment, flapping its wings and flew away.
On the windowsill, no mark was left except for a feather falling.
After leaving Sun Li's house, Embers went straight to the prison.
Yan Huaian had already asked almost all the questions, and then waited for Yuchen to come back with the evidence.
When Yu Chen came back, Yan Huaian was carrying a bowl to feed Sun Li water, but probably because Yan Huaian had never done such a thing before, so most of the bowl of water leaked, and there was not much that got into Sun Li's mouth.
"Miss Yu is back." Yan Huaian saw Yu Jin coming in, and did not feed Sun Li water. There was still more than half a bowl of water left, so Yan Huaian stopped and placed it on the table casually, "Found it?"
As the ember said, she first took out the things she found in the study from her arms, "These are evidence of his acceptance of bribes."
Then he carefully took out eight pieces of paper of equal size from his narrow sleeves, pushed them to Yan Huaian, and said, "This should be what Sun Li mentioned."
Yan Huaian's slender fingers stretched the pieces of paper one by one, and occasionally teased and rotated them. During the puzzle, he asked, "Didn't you try it and see what's falling?"
Yu Jin glanced at Sun Li, who was obviously uneasy, and Yu Jin pursed his lips and said, "I haven't tried it yet. I don't know if it's missing, but if it's missing, I'll look for it again."
When Yan Huaian heard this, his eyebrows raised slightly, which means that if it is missing, there is a way for the embers to be lost.
Eight pieces of paper were drawn, so it was not that troublesome to piece together. Soon the painting was pieced together.
Fortunately, there are no gaps.
Ember subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
However, when I saw the full picture of this portrait, the heart that had just relaxed was raised again.
This portrait...
Yan Huaian looked up at Yu Chen, smiled and said, "Who does Miss Yu think this portrait is painted?"
Although the painting skills of this portrait are not very good, you can still see who is painting.
It's her.
No, there is another person who matches the portrait.
It should be said that the face of Embers is drawn.
Combined with Sun Li’s explanation, he said that this portrait was brought to him about a year ago, and this time coincides with the basic timeline of the real and fake daughter incident that was sensational at that time.
Yan Huaian raised his hand and knocked on the table, and his other hand pressed against his chin as if thinking.
“A year ago…”
"So who is this portrait looking for?"
"The person behind the scenes is really in the capital, or outside the capital?"
Yan Huaian recalled the doubtful candidates in his heart, and did not think of a very consistent one for a while. Anyone could be, but no one was like.
Yan Huaian sighed, "There are still too few clues."
He gathered the fragments of the portrait together and put them together into his sleeves, and looked at Yuchen's eyes with all his thoughts.
Of course I didn't see anything.
Yan Huaian stood up and strode out. "Let's go, sort out today's news, and come again tomorrow."
Yan Huaian and Yu Chen left one after another, and Sun Li was tied to the cross and half dead. He didn't care about his physical discomfort at this moment, and could only feel his heart beating wildly.
What should I do? How could I find it? So wouldn’t the ones who store these pieces of paper be searched for?
Since it was found out, will it be noticed?
Sun Li's throat rolled up and down, feeling panicked.
Fluttering-
The sound of flapping its wings stopped at the window of the cell, and an emerald green parrot drifted through the gap and glided onto the table, protruding his head into the bowl to drink water.
"It's you!"
Sun Li opened his eyes wide and looked at the parrot. A light suddenly lit up in his eyes. He hurriedly said, "Tell that lord, save me, save me!"
After drinking enough water, the parrot flew to Sun Li's shoulder again, "It's brainless and not delicious."
"Don't care whether it's delicious or not." Sun Li lowered his voice, "Tell me, save me!"
The parrot blinked and learned to say, "Save me, save me."
"Yes, yes, that's it, save me!"
"Save me, save me." The parrot repeated, then flew through the window and disappeared.
Sun Li was still murmuring, "Save me, you must save me, you must, I don't want to die..."
After a while, the jailer who had changed shifts came in to loosen Sun Li. Sun Li came to his senses and looked at the water bowl not far away and licked his lips, "Give me some water to drink."
The prison guard thought about it and said that although the master is now a prisoner, drinking water is not a big deal, so he responded.
The jailer first looked down, then picked up the water jug and filled the bowl, and brought it to Sun Li.
Sun Li picked up the bowl and drank it hard, and after drinking it in a few sips, he slowly drank a bowl of water.
He still felt that it was not enough, so he asked for a jug and drank it clean.
The prison guard left, and the Sun Li, who was full of water, lay down with satisfaction, thinking, "That adult can definitely pick me up." As he thought, his vision gradually blurred, his eyelids were heavy, and he finally closed his eyes.
——
The next day, Yu Jin and Wang Xingzhi stepped into the office gate just now, and Yan Huaian walked out quickly through the door with a deep face.
Seeing Yuchen, Yan Huaian said "Follow me". Yuchen didn't have time to ask, so he could only hurry up and follow.
Walking all the way to the government jail, Yu Jin then understood why Yan Huaian's face looked so ugly.
Sun Li is dead.
Died in prison.
Seeing Yan Huaian coming in with Yu Chen, the prison guards who surrounded him quickly made way. Yu Chen then saw Sun Li lying on the ground with a dark face.
I was alive yesterday, but I was poisoned to death today.
"What's going on?"
On duty today, the prison guard who was the first to find Sun Li dead replied, "Sir, I came to deliver the meal this morning, and I saw Sun Li not moving. He shouted many times but didn't respond. I became suspicious, so I opened the prison door."
"But I didn't expect..." When he said this, the jailer swallowed his saliva, his voice trembling slightly, "I didn't expect that the master's face was dark and purple. I looked at his breath, and it was gone, I had no breath, I died, I died..."
At first, the jailer was clear about his words, but the more he spoke, the more he became more and more chaotic, and it was obvious that he was thrilled when he first saw the corpse.
