In fact, for people who solve crimes, role-playing is a common practice.

No matter what era it is, it's the same.

Xia Yue was thoughtful.

Everyone was thoughtful.

Ye Caitang was also thoughtful.

But it's a pity that the six doors didn't exert their efforts in one place at this moment. They all had different thoughts.

Now that we have come to Lushui Village, we must go to the two families who reported the crime. After having breakfast at the villagers' house the next day, they went their separate ways.

Xia Yue and Ye Caitang went to Yuan Mingda's house, and Wang Tong, Liu Sha and Xie Zhi, went to Yuan Ziping's husband's house.

The Yuan family is an ordinary family. Yuan Ziping also has an elder sister and a younger brother in her family. The elder sister is married and the younger brother is not very old.

It was originally a joyful event, but now the whole family is looking sad.

Yuan Mingda heard that Xia Yue was an official from the capital to investigate the disappearance of his daughter, so he quickly invited him in.

After entering the door and sitting down, Xia Yue said: "You reported the case at the Yamen that your daughter was missing?"

Yuan Mingda nodded repeatedly.

"Tell me about the specific situation. How is your relationship with your son-in-law Bing Ruicai's family? Were there any conflicts after your daughter got married? Did anything strange happen before and after this?"

Yuan Mingda began to speak.

The Yuan family and the Bing family are two ordinary families in the village, neither too poor nor too rich, and they are well matched. Although the young couple had no relationship before, they met once and had no objections.

Most marriages in this era are like this, which is very normal.

Yuan Mingda focused on one situation: "I used to think that although Bing Ruicai didn't have much money, he was an honest young man. Who knew that on the second day after getting married, before he even had time to come back, he came to tell me that his daughter had run away.

Isn't this nonsense? Later, I asked many people around his home, and some people told me that there was something wrong with this person."

Ye Caitang also sides with the Yuan family on this point. Theoretically who should be responsible for where the bride was lost. If she ran away before getting married, it is the Yuan family's responsibility. Maybe the bride had some sweetheart who eloped.

.

But now that they are married and there is no evidence, we cannot say that.

Xia Yue said: "What's wrong?"

Yuan Mingda said: "It is said that he associates with unscrupulous people."

This is a very important clue.

Xia Yue said: "Did you mention this when you reported to the official?"

Yuan Mingda said: "I told you, but he refused to admit it and said that I slandered him."

Xia Yue said: "Who told you this?"

Yuan Mingda said: "A lunatic in the village."

"..."

Xia Yue wanted to slap the teapot on his face.

If he admitted it, he would be truly crazy.

Xia Yue held back his temper and asked, "Why do you believe the words of a madman?"

Yuan Mingda said matter-of-factly: "Although he is a lunatic, I think what he said makes sense. That guy Bing Ruicai must have been hanging out with some shady people. He saw my daughter's beauty and sold her."

Although the father feels sorry for his daughter, he still has a big idea.

"Then he beat her up and said she could still get the bride price back if she ran away."

Xia Yue asked questions while Ye Caitang was doing it. After looking at Yuan Mingda and his wife who came up to pour water, she agreed on one point.

Yuan Mingda's daughter Yuan Ziping, unless she is very unlucky and happens to have inherited the shortcomings of her parents, she should be quite beautiful.

After Ye Caitang finished reading, he suddenly remembered something.

"Did your daughter go to the Fox Fairy Temple to worship before she got married?"

"Have you paid your respects?"

"Then has she seen the Fox Fairy?"

Yuan Mingda nodded: "I saw it."

He actually saw the Fox Fairy, which made Xia Yue also interested.

"Did she say what the fox fairy looks like?"

"That's not true." Yuan Mingda said: "But does it need to be said? Isn't the Fox Fairy just a fox?"

People who can believe what a madman says really think differently from ordinary people.

Xia Yue and Ye Caitang spent half a day with Yuan Mingda, and the only useful information they got was that the missing bride Yuan Ziping was the one who met the Fox Fairy.

Because according to Yuan Mingda's boast, Yuan Ziping is good-looking.

Ye Caitang comprehensively analyzed the appearance and skin color of the three members of the Yuan family and felt that Yuan Mingda was not lying and Yuan Ziping should be good-looking.

After leaving the Yuan family, Xia Yue and Ye Caitang began to search for fools throughout the village.

Yuan Mingda said that the lunatic had been in the village for several years. He wandered around the village every day, muttering something he didn't know what he was talking about. This time, he met him on the way to Bing Ruicai's house. He was mysterious.

I told myself sadly that Bing Rui was going to have his head chopped off...

What you say is not normal, and the people who listen are not normal either.

But now that they have said it, Xia Yue and Ye Caitang still want to find him and ask him, just in case. Some crazy people are really crazy and are not guarded by others, so they often know some information that normal people don't know.

When Wang Tong, Liu Sha and Xie Zhi came out after asking questions at the Bing family, they saw Xia Yue and Ye Caitang searching for fools all over the village.

There is a fool named Erlengzi.

Because he has no fixed abode, he is sometimes here and sometimes there. No one can tell where to find him.

So Xia Yue and Ye Caitang were having a particularly hard time today. They searched for more than an hour but couldn't find anyone.

But it is normal, because according to the experience of the villagers, Erleng appears and disappears randomly. Sometimes he will even go to the next village to play for a few days before coming back.

It all depends on luck.

It was obvious that the God of Luck had not favored them today. Even if they added Wang Tong, Liu Sha and Xie Zhi, they still could not find the two fools. Everyone had to put this clue down for the time being.

I still went back to the villager’s house where I stayed last night.

Close the door and let everyone share today's information.

Xia Yue and Ye Caitang basically didn't ask anything. They were just related to a stupid person, and they haven't found anyone yet.

The other three people went to the man's house, and there was no evidence for what he said. They were all nonsense. The difference was that Bing Ruicai felt that Yuan Ziping had an affair and ran away, but Bing Ruicai's parents felt that she was being raped.

The fox fairy abducted her. The same big reason is because Yuan Ziping is good-looking, and the girl's parents must be good-looking, so she will feel restless at the sight of her.

Fortunately, Ye Caitang was not going to the Bing family today, otherwise, he might have scolded them.

Even if he is good-looking, he doesn't eat your food. Besides, why don't you find an ugly one? Good-looking has become the original sin. It doesn't make sense.

Xia Yue said: "There is no evidence for both sides of the statement. They are all imaginary. I think there is something wrong with the Fox Fairy Temple in this matter."

A very evil existence.

"Yes." Wang Tong rolled up his sleeves: "Sir, how about we burn that ruined temple?"

Everyone really admired Wang Tong for being such a ruthless character.

"Can the Fox Fairy be lured out by burning it?" Xia Yue disagreed: "That's it if there really is a Fox Fairy. What if it's not a real Fox Fairy and runs away when things get too big?"
