Chapter 171 I don’t know

Lin Yue ignored her and took out each book one by one to read.

But it is a pity that there are no clues about the books on the bookshelf. These books are even very new, as if they have not been opened since they were bought.

However, the types of books are quite diverse, which makes people feel that the owner has a wide range of knowledge.

She put the last book away and continued to roam the room with her eyes.

Lin Yue also saw the photo of Qi Jinshu and Aunt Lu that Jiao Qingqing had seen before. Qi Jinshu in the photo was not old, gentle and elegant, a bit like Qi Xing. In other words, Qi Xing's family of three seemed to be somewhat similar. Change it.

In other words, Qi Jinshu and Shi Ying look very much like a couple.

Aunt Lu in the photo seems a bit abrupt.

Her smile was even a little nervous.

But why would Aunt Lu be nervous when a couple who knew each other took a photo together?

Lin Yue rubbed the thumb and index finger of her right hand gently. This was her habit. Whenever she was designing the plot in the book, she would rub it constantly like this.

This time Jiao Qingqing stopped talking and stared at Lin Yue closely.

In an ordinary photo, can she see the flowers?

Huh, just pretending to be mysterious.

After looking at the group photo, Lin Yue's eyes swept over the furnishings in the room one by one.

Everything is neatly organized. It can be seen that Aunt Lu is a very diligent person who also likes to tidy up the house. There is an antique shoe cabinet at the entrance, and two pairs of slippers for a man and a woman are placed under the shoe cabinet.

.

The slippers were brushed clean, but the only difference was that the male owner's shoes were very new, while the soles of the female owner's shoes had slight wear. The male owner's slippers may have disappeared just after he bought them.

Lin Yue's eyes fell on several pots of succulents on the windowsill. Although they lacked the care of their owners these days, the succulents were still growing well.

At this moment, Jiao Qingqing walked over, picked up the small and exquisite watering can placed on the windowsill, and watered the succulents.

Jiao Qingqing picked up the watering can, and Lin Yue discovered that there was an ashtray behind the watering can. The shape of the ashtray was very ordinary, but it was also wiped clean, as if the hostess was always there.

Clean everything for the master.

Lin Yue took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Qi Xing: "Does Uncle Qi smoke?"

After sending the message, it soon showed that the other party was typing, but had not yet finished writing.

After a while, Qi Xing hesitantly sent two words: "Pull it..."

After this message, Qi Xing said: "When he came to see me before, I could smell a faint smell of tobacco on him. But I never saw him smoking in front of me."

Lin Yue opened the long floor-to-ceiling windows, and fresh, cold air rushed in.

It rained last night and some leaves were blown onto the sunroom which was not completely enclosed.

There is a unique tea tray next to several pots of excellent growing anemone. On the tea tray, in addition to placing tea-making tools, there is also an ashtray.

The tea tray, tea-making tools, and ashtrays were all wiped clean.

The two futons were placed on one side of the tea tray, as if they were obediently waiting for their owner to favor them again.

This is where Aunt Lu and Uncle Qi took photos.

It seems like everything is the same, yet there seems to be something different.

After Jiao Qingqing took care of the pots of succulents, she walked out again, leaned to the side and looked at Lin Yue coldly.

She watched Lin Yue's eyes fall on the futon and didn't move away for a long time.

Lin Yue couldn't find any clues. Only a smart person could tell that something was wrong in the house.

Qi Jinshu left Aunt Lu long ago and went elsewhere.

Aunt Lu refused to accept Qi Jinshu's departure, and still imagined that Qi Jinshu was still with her. All the furnishings in her house still retained traces of Qi Jinshu's life, and she was reluctant to put them away.

If Lin Yue had been more cheeky, walked into the bedroom and opened the closet door, he would have discovered that there were only the hostess's clothes in the closet.

Jiao Qingqing's eyes fell on Fengwei Kui, revealing an imperceptible smile.

In fact, she didn't know where Qi Jinshu went, she was just tricking Qi Xing.

As long as Aunt Lu is unconscious and still living in imagination, no one will know that she is teasing Qi Xing.

Lin Yue finally moved his eyes away from the futon and looked at Jiao Qingqing.

Jiao Qingqing looked at Lin Yue: "Shopkeeper Lin, how are you? Have you found any clues? If you can't find it, don't force it."

Lin Yue walked back to the room and closed the long French window: "I've finished reading. Do you want to go together?"

"No need." Jiao Qingqing said.

Lin Yue didn't invite her again and walked out of the small courtyard.

In the village, there are many small courtyards with a layout like the one rented by Aunt Lu. The pace of X city is not fast, so it is very suitable for renting a local small courtyard here and living leisurely every day.

Somewhat like a B&B.

Lin Yue walked to an elderly activity center, where a fire was burning. Many old people and their children were warming up around the fire while chatting. The smell of roasted sweet potatoes seemed to be wafting in the air.

Everything is quiet.

Lin Yue walked up and greeted with a smile: "Good afternoon, uncle and aunt. May I ask, does Qi Jinshu live near here?"

"Oh! My dear, he lives in the house in front. Fifty meters further, the small courtyard on the right is his. Maybe he will be tending his flowers and plants in the courtyard at this time."

"Ah, this old man is just popular with girls."

"If you were like Lao Qi, I would like you too."

"Hey! I don't want you to like me."

"Aunt Lu over there used to come to see him every day, but she hasn't seen anyone these days."

"You didn't know this. A few days ago, the youngest son of Lao Niu's family was driving his farm truck to transport steel bars and hit Aunt Lu's car! I heard that he would have to pay a lot of money."

"Lao Niu's hair turned gray overnight!"

"There were two young men in Aunt Lu's car. The male one was seriously injured. I don't know if he can be saved..."

The sound of discussion gradually faded away, and Lin Yue strolled through the courtyard and walked outside the small courtyard.

At first glance, it seems that I have returned to Aunt Lu's small courtyard.

It's just that the sunroom in Aunt Lu's courtyard is on the east side of the courtyard, while the sunroom in the courtyard in front of her is on the west side of the courtyard.

Among several tall phoenix-tailed sunflowers, there was a man wearing a gray Chinese tunic suit, squatting on the ground, holding a small shovel to loosen the soil for the flowers in the pots.

He concentrated on his work. Lin Yue stood outside the small courtyard for a long time without raising his head.

But Lin Yue still recognized this man as the man in the photo in Aunt Lu's house.

The photo album of Qi Xing's mobile phone also contains an ID photo of Qi Jinshu.

Lin Yue knocked on the courtyard door: "Hello, is this the home of Mr. Qi Jinshu Qi?"

The man raised his head, stood up, and walked towards Lin Yue.

With confusion on his face, he asked Lin Yue: "I am Qi Jinshu, who are you?"

As he got closer, Lin Yue could clearly see a red mole on the corner of the man's right eye.

Lin Yue couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and introduced himself: "Hello, uncle, my name is Lin Yue, and I am the girlfriend of your son Qi Xing."

Qi Jinshu's eyes became more and more confused: "Qi Xing? Who is Qi Xing? I don't know him."
