"I don't dare, I don't dare." The nanny kowtowed repeatedly, her forehead turning red.
"You don't have to worry too much." Jian Yu said: "Due to Master Wei's matter, the gates of the Wei family are strictly guarded and no one is allowed in or out. The young master must still be in the house. As long as you search carefully, you will definitely be able to find him."
No matter how big it is, it is only one mansion. Jian Yu and Zhou Chen briefly discussed it and divided their men first and handed it over to the housekeeper of Wei Mansion to arrange a search together.
Although the deceased is older, he is already dead after all, so there is no harm in delaying for a while. But the child is alive, and it will be more dangerous if he is found later.
For a time, the entire Wei Mansion was filled with people looking for the child, but Bai Yue tugged on Jian Yu's sleeve.
Jian Yu looked back at him and saw that she blinked, indicating that she had something to say. Unfortunately, the two of them didn't have a tacit understanding, and they really couldn't understand more with just a blink of an eye.
"Can I look around?" Bai Yue added: "I won't leave this yard."
If she hadn't claimed to be her fiancé and looked like she wanted to be tied up next to her, others would have thought she was the No. 1 suspect.
"what do you want to see?"
"I don't know either, but I always feel that a three-year-old child will not disappear out of thin air. If it is taken away by someone, there will definitely be clues left behind."
"You are also enthusiastic." Jian Yu said skillfully: "Actually, there are only two situations now."
"Tell me about it."
"When the child was lost, only the wet nurse was present, and there was no second witness. So it was just the first case. The wet nurse lied. She was the one who sent the child away and was taken away, so she walked through the gate and there was no trace left on the ground.
Leave no trace."
Bai Yue nodded.
"Second, the wet nurse didn't lie. The murderer tricked her into leaving the house and then sneaked into the room and took the child away."
Jian Yu said: "But I just asked people to look around the courtyard. There is dirt beside the courtyard wall. It rained the day before yesterday and the ground is not dry. If someone passes by, there will be shoe prints. But now there are only maids on the dirt."
You can tell the size of the shoe prints at a glance."
Unexpectedly, Jian Yu had already looked at him so carefully in such a short period of time. Bai Yue couldn't help but look at the man in front of him differently. He was not just a showman.
Bai Yue couldn't help lowering his voice: "So the nanny lied?"
Jian Yu sneered and walked slowly to the woman's side: "This is your last chance. What is going on?"
The woman had been kneeling just now before she was helped up and sat on the steps wiping her tears. Now she was asked by Jian Yu and knelt down again.
"My slave tells the truth, and there is not a single lie." The woman cried and shouted: "My lord, you cannot wrongly accuse this slave..."
Jian Yu had a headache due to the noise. He pressed his eyebrows and said casually: "It seems that you won't shed tears after seeing the coffin. I have always been reluctant to do anything to women, but if you don't repent..."
During Jian Yu's interrogation, Bai Yue had already walked to the wall. It's not that he didn't believe Jian Yu, but when it comes to investigating the case, seeing is believing and hearing is false. What's more, the group of people who were noisy just now were too chaotic, and there might be something wrong.
Omissions.
Jian Yu didn't know how badly he had been deceived before. Bai Yue noticed it immediately when he was five meters away. However, seeing that his own people were heavily guarding the entrance to the courtyard, he thought Bai Yue would not be able to get out no matter what, so he didn't say anything more for a while.
Sure enough, Bai Yue saw a few messy footprints on the wall of the courtyard. Although the size was not a three-inch golden lotus, it was certainly not that big. It was the size of a woman's shoe print. If it was a man, it was a young man who had not yet grown up.
"But no one said that the murderer must be a man." Bai Yue said to himself, squatted down next to the shoe print, gestured with his hand, then raised his head and looked around.
San Yiniang's yard is well greened, and many trees are planted in rows along the fence. Although it is late autumn, except for two ginkgo trees that have fallen golden on the ground, most of them are still lush and green.
Suddenly, Bai Yue vaguely saw something on the wall, and immediately stood up and walked over.
Jian Yu was threatening the wet nurse when he suddenly felt his sleeve being pulled by his men. When he turned around to look, he was furious.
Bai Yue was climbing up the wall on his hands and knees. Although he might not be able to climb up that way, his intention to escape was clear.
Just now I kept saying that I would never run away, but as a result, I am still standing here, not saying a word of truth.
As the minister of Dali Temple, Jian Yu was usually responsible for difficult and complicated cases in the capital. He was actually a calm and calm character, but he was really stimulated by Bai Yue these days.
I thought that Bai Yue, who was from the countryside, a commoner with no status, and an orphan, had saved the world in his previous life by getting married to me. He should be grateful, but who would have expected...
Jian Yu gritted his teeth, waved his hand to ask the woman to pause, and strode over.
Bai Yue hated the clothes of this era. The long hem and wide sleeves were really inconvenient. She stepped on the earth wall and was struggling to hold on to a raised spot on the brick wall, trying hard to step on with her other leg.
But it was too difficult. Just as Jian Yu said it had rained the day before yesterday, and although the wall was not wet, it was still somewhat slippery. After persisting for a while, she finally couldn't support her own weight. Her fingers loosened and she fell backwards.
It was definitely not possible to fall to death or injury from this height, but it was still too miserable. Bai Yue screamed and closed his eyes in pain.
But she didn't fall to the ground. As she was falling rapidly, a hand suddenly pressed on her back from behind and hugged her waist.
Bai Yue opened his eyes in shock, and saw Jian Yu behind him at some point, holding her waist with one hand and holding her arm with the other. He hugged her from behind, turned around half a circle, took a step away, and stood
Straighten your body.
Jian Yu's subordinate Liang Meng was originally following behind, just two or three steps behind his impatient master. But now he looked at him and said "Hey, hey, hey", he immediately stopped and raised his hand to make a stop gesture, letting the few little ones know.
The servant also stopped.
Several unknown flower trees beside the wall were blooming with red and white flowers, and the petals were blown by the wind. Jian Yu stood tall and tall under the flowers, holding Bai Yue in his arms from behind, although he could not see it.
face, but the artistic conception of this scene also makes people feel that they are a beautiful couple, they are truly in love with each other, a couple of gods and gods.
At this time, the gods and their families were on the verge of getting angry.
After Jian Yu rescued the person and stood still, he did not let go. Instead, he hugged him tighter and said in a cold voice: "Didn't you just say you would never run away? Why, you can't bear it for a while?"
Bai Yue was shocked and realized that it was Jian Yu who saved him who was about to fall into the mud. Before he could thank him, he heard this sentence.
"Let me go, I don't want to run away." Bai Yue explained: "I have discovered something, look..."
"What are you looking at?" Jian Yu interrupted her: "Look at how you ran away, Bai Yue. Do you think that I have a good temper and that I can't disobey my elders, so I am unscrupulous and lawless?"
