Chapter 20: The mystery of the young lady's death 2(2/2)

"I have nothing more to ask, Chang'an, do you have anything to ask?"

"No, no." Chang An waved his hand.

So Qin Zhen bowed to the housekeeper and said, "Excuse me."

Then the three of them left the backyard, said goodbye to Xie Rong and left the Xie Mansion.

"Huaixiu, didn't anyone else ask?" Chang'an grabbed Huaixiu's arm, "You just came out in such a hurry?"

Huai Xiu said, "If someone follows me, I can't ask anything."

"You're saying that the housekeeper is indeed very snobbish. Did you find out something?"

Huai Xiu said, "What about you, what do you think?"

Chang An shrugged, "I have no idea. Now that I heard you ask Aunt Bai, do you think she has something to do with Young Master Xie?"

"What's there?"

"That's it. You know." Chang'an smiled mischievously.

Huaixiu held the sword and said, "I don't understand."

Chang'an groaned, "You still hid it from me, do you think the two of them had an affair? Then they collaborated to kill Wu Ruier, and then pretended it was an accident."

Qin Zhen on the side couldn't help coughing, "Be careful what you say."

Huaixiu smiled and said, "You must have read too many words."

"Isn't it? Did Aunt Bai have something to do with the housekeeper? Wu Rui'er bumped into her, and the two of them teamed up to kill Wu Rui'er? I just saw Aunt Bai glare at the housekeeper several times."

Huaixiu said, "You should write your own storybook."

Changan was annoyed, "Then what do you think?"

Huaixiu was silent for a moment, "There is something I can't figure out."

"What?"

Huaixiu said, "You still remember the record in the file that a pair of jade bracelets, a pair of jade pendants, an agate ring, a pair of butterfly gold hairpins, and a longevity lock were found from Wu Ruier's body."

"These are Wu Ruier's accessories. The Xie family has confirmed it. Is there anything wrong with this?"

Huaixiu said, "Buddhism is a serious matter. Those who pay attention to it will bathe and change clothes beforehand, fast for several days, wear plain clothes without decoration, why does Wu Ruier wear gold and silver Buddhist scriptures?"

"This..." Chang'an said, "Wu Ruier is not a devout Buddhist, so maybe she didn't think so much about it."

Huai Xiu said, "Both Xie Rong and Ji Lan said that Wu Ruier lived a frugal and simple life."

Chang'an suddenly realized, "I understand. No wonder you just asked Wu Ruier about her usual preferences. It turns out you had a purpose. Why didn't you tell Huaixiu earlier?"

Huaixiu added, "There are also some problems with Ji Lan. She seems to be afraid of Xie Rong. What do you think, Inspector Qin?"

Qin Zhen said, "Qin has nothing to say. Since we have doubts, we should go and check."

"You might as well not say it." Chang An despised, "Huaixiu, where should we go next?"

Huaixiu said, "Go and visit Ms. Zhao. She is so sure that Wu Ruier's death was not an accident. There must be a reason."

However, when they came to the Wu Mansion, they were told that Mrs. Zhao was seriously ill and could not see guests. No matter how Qin Zhen negotiated, they were turned away. In the end, they were rejected. However, Huaixiu saw a middle-aged woman.

, walked through the gate, and glanced outside the door in a panic.

Huaixiu remained calm, then smiled and said, "Didn't you say that no one dares to stop the Six Doors from investigating the case?"

Qin Zhen was choked and speechless.

"What should we do now?" Changan spread his hands, "If the plaintiff can't be found, how can we review it?"

When Huaixiu came along the road just now, he saw that there were many tea shops on this street. At this moment, he thought carefully, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile, "Why don't you go back and look at the files first, and then think of something."

"That's all." Chang'an said.

"Well, you go back first, it's still early, I want to go home."

"Home?"

Huaixiu chuckled, "I'm staying at a friend's house. They're worried about me. They haven't heard from me in the past few days." Huaixiu said while walking into the crowd, "Don't worry about me, just go back."

"Huaixiu, Huaixiu?" Chang'an didn't stop her. He pushed the things in his hands into Qin Zhen's arms and said with a smile, "You take it back for me. I'll go check on Huaixiu. She must want to act privately.

"

"This is against the rules..."
