Chapter 10 Insomnia

Bai Yue chuckled in his heart. If a group of ignorant and backward ancient people were in her era, not to mention the difference in the pictures, even the fingerprints of several people on each fan were clearly visible, why would they bother her so much?

cell.

This was an unexpected case. Jian Yu originally planned to study it today and invite a few experts to assist in the investigation tomorrow, but he never expected that Bai Yue would reveal it so easily.

Jian Yu pondered for a moment: "Let's check if there are any left-handed people around Xia Fei."

Regardless of how late it was, Liang Meng immediately took the order.

Jian Yu shook the fan in his hand, raised his eyebrows and said to Bai Yue: "If it is proven to be true, I will reward you well."

Bai Yue was not looking forward to it: "What's the reward?"

Shouldn't you break her legs?

This time, Jian Yu didn't say anything. He stood up and opened the study door.

It was already late autumn and early winter, and a gust of cold and biting wind blew in. Bai Yue shrank his neck and consciously rolled up his sleeves and walked out without being rushed.

When we walked into the yard, the boy had already pushed the yard door open.

She was about to go out when suddenly Jian Yu's voice came from behind her.

"Wait a minute." Jian Yu called her.

Looking for trouble again, Bai Yue turned around in confusion, only to see Jian Yu coming out holding a piece of clothing.

Just as he was wondering, Jian Yu shook off his clothes. It was a fluffy white cloak.

"The wind has picked up and it's cold at night." Jian Yu said softly: "I still have cases to look at, so I won't send you off. You should go back and rest early."

Jian Yu put the cloak on Bai Yue's shoulders and gathered the collar, showing a warm and affectionate look.

Bai Yue Leng shivered and looked at Jian Yu with an indescribable expression.

What kind of sudden fine points?

Could it be that he was possessed by a ghost in the middle of the night?

"Okay, let's go." Jian Yu seemed to know nothing, so he naturally reached out and put his hand on Bai Yue's shoulder, turning it slightly.

Bai Yue turned around, and in her sight, the corner of her skirt quickly disappeared into the woods not far away, and she suddenly realized.

This was probably Mrs. Jian's. He was afraid that they would be at odds with each other, so he sent a little girl over to take a peek. Jian Yu was just playing a trick to fool his mother. It seems that he was really bad in the past few days when she ran away from home.

I went to sleep on the street at 1 o'clock, and now I am so cautious.

This was Bai Yue's first night in this era, and he didn't sleep all night.

The bed was very comfortable, the quilt was freshly dried and smelled of sunshine, the room was clean, and there was faint incense burning, but all of this was unfamiliar.

After all the bright and noisy days passed, Bai Yue calmed down, and then he felt very clearly that he could never go back.

Early the next morning, Bai Yue had big dark circles under his eyes, startling the little girl who came in to serve him.

"Miss." Peggy asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you? Did you not sleep well last night?"

Bai Yue sighed. Although he didn't sleep all night, he finally calmed down. But the bitterness of it was not enough for outsiders to understand.

After looking in the mirror, Bai Yue was also shocked by himself. He hurriedly waved to Peggy and gave some instructions.

When Jian Yu brought Liang Meng over, he saw Bai Yue lying on a soft chair with two pieces on his eyes... What were those?

"What's going on?" Jian Yu looked down and saw a plate on the table with thinly sliced ​​apple slices. Peggy was carefully picking up a piece and putting it against her eyes.

Peggy was startled when she heard what Jian Yu said. Her hands shook and the apple slices fell down and landed on Bai Yue's face.

Bai Yue sighed, picked it up, ate it, and took off two pieces from his eyes.

Jian Yu also noticed: "Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"No." Bai Yue sat up straight: "I couldn't sleep because I was worried about the case. I was afraid that there might be some uncalculated omissions that would delay Master Jian's affairs."

Jian Yu's expression was a bit difficult to express, so he remained silent for a moment and spoke slowly.

"I didn't expect that I would make you so worried and sleepless all night. I'm really flattered."

It was all just talk. Bai Yue was about to say a few more polite words when he saw Liang Meng peeking out his face from behind Jian Yu with a resentful look.

"The one who couldn't sleep all night must be a kid, right?" Liang Meng's dark circles were as much as Bai Yue's.

Bai Yue was startled: "What's wrong with Liang Meng? Didn't he sleep well last night?"

It's normal to work overtime on investigations. Could it be that he was busy all night?

Liang Meng clasped his fingers and said: "In the first half of the night, I checked Xia Fei's friends who knew painting and ink painting, and there were no left-handers. In the second half of the night, I checked for painters with such skills in the capital, and there were no left-handers. Even if he is a foreigner, as long as he is in the middle of Beijing

If his craftsmanship is revealed, there is no reason why he can't be found out."

"There are no left-handers." Bai Yue conveniently put another apple on the table into Liang Meng's hand, and said thoughtfully: "A left-hander, he must let people know that he is a left-hander?"

Liang Meng was asked.

Bai Yue said: "Why did you ask?"

Liang Meng opened his mouth and suddenly felt guilty: "Just...that's what I'm asking."

Bai Yue's expression froze a little, and then he said gently: "It's like this, the number of painters who know the victim and have such skills must be limited even in the capital. If this person usually uses his left hand and doesn't use his own

Anyone who knows him will definitely be able to identify him."

There are a bunch of gadgets in her house that Liang Meng bought yesterday. For such an enthusiastic young man, she is willing to show her gentle side.

Liang Meng nodded: "Last night we asked friends who are also painters that we met during the summer. There were thirty-seven of them in total. They all knew each other and often made friends through painting, so I thought about this conspicuous feature, even if I

Even if you deny it, your companions will definitely point it out."

Bai Yue hit the nail on the head without any politeness.

"You're just trying to scare someone away."

Liang Meng suddenly wanted to slap himself, but he was careless.

Bai Yue said: "Most left-handers can use their right hands skillfully. This can be seen from the paintings copied by the murderer. The landscape paintings he painted with his right hand are equally good. So in this case, as long as he is willing, he can completely cover up

Don’t let anyone know about your left hand.”

"That's right." Liang Meng said with an annoyed look on his face: "I was too anxious, thinking that Lefty would know it at a glance and find the person in no time."

Jian Yu was very tolerant to his subordinates and patted Liang Meng: "I asked you questions, but I still can't take it back. Now think about how to find the person if the other party refuses to admit it."

Somehow, Liang Meng looked at Bai Yue.

Bai Yue was agitated: "Why are you looking at me?"

Jian Yu was also a little dissatisfied. In the past, Liang Meng always looked at him with admiration.

Liang Meng immediately realized something was wrong, and immediately turned his head and said seriously: "Master, what should we do now?"

Jian Yu's self-esteem was slightly comforted.
