The fat Sheriff then introduced the situation and kicked the skinny Cao Xing, "This kid was picked up from a brothel. After selling the stolen goods, he went to have a good time."
Then, he introduced two other thieves, a tall middle-aged man in his thirties named Liu Sui, and a stocky young man with long hair named Jiao Yong. "These two thieves were more daring, so they teamed up with Cao Xing to steal Cao's house.
Then he stole from two other houses.
When we took Cao Xing to the scrap station to identify it, we were blocked. Grandma, if I hadn't brought so many people, we would have let these two boys run away."
As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves and touched the scratched oily skin on his wrist.
Jia Zhengming was impatient to see him show off his merits and continued to use his old tricks to intimidate Cao Xing and the other three.
When Cao Xing and the others heard that someone had died and that the crime had been pinned on them, they all became anxious and knelt down to swear an oath.
"How dare you pretend? It seems you won't be able to do it without severe punishment."
Jia Zhengming shouted angrily, "Come on, drag me down and use your tactics."
"etc!"
Liu Sui pleaded, "I have information, I have information. Last night, I saw a man wearing a top hat leaving Cao's house. The time was about 11:20."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.
"Speak carefully. If you miss anything, I will cut you into pieces."
Gu Chun said sharply.
Liu Suidao said, "Cao Xing and we arrived at a little past eleven. He went to block the two maids first, while Jiao Yong and I went to check out the spot. Jiao Yong went to the left and I went to the right.
I was looking through things in the west wing when I suddenly heard a snapping sound. I was startled and hurriedly lay down by the window of the west wing. Looking out, I saw a man slowly getting up from the ground, dusting off the dust on his trouser legs and pressing down.
Hat brim, leave quickly.
The incident happened so suddenly that neither Jiao Yong nor Cao Xing noticed it. Cao Xing was timid and I was afraid that if I told him, he would not dare to act and it would ruin the matter, so I kept it secret from them.
But even if we just exchange some things for some money and kill people, we wouldn't dare to do it even if we lend us ten courages."
"Liu Sui, you must know that if you dare to tell any lies, you will be thrown into jail."
Jia Zhengming threatened sternly.
Liu Sui said, "I don't dare."
"This case is getting more and more confusing."
Qin Bing whispered.
Xu Shu didn't speak. There was a knot between his eyebrows. He took out a cigarette and held it between his lips without lighting it.
Boom, boom, another voice came from the stairway. This voice was very rhythmic. You didn't need to listen carefully to know that it was a woman.
Sure enough, a police officer led a tall woman in.
She wore a long light-colored coat and a white wide-brim sun hat covering her head. She had a slim figure and delicate facial features. At first glance, she thought it was Gao Yuanyuan, who was twenty years old, walking over.
"Miss Yan, why is it you?"
Jia Zhengming took three steps and then two steps to meet him.
"This woman's name is Yan Zi. She runs a bookstore. She is a famous social butterfly and has great influence."
Duan Kuohai introduced in a low voice.
"I was washing up when I was summoned by your people, President Jia, so I could only come here looking disheveled."
Yan Zi's voice is very soft and charming, and her bright eyes are crystal clear. Although she is clearly speaking for the occasion, she feels sincere.
"Excuse me, excuse me."
Jia Zhengming turned around and reprimanded the Sheriff over there, "I don't know the importance of something. Since it is Miss Yan who I want to invite, why didn't you come and see me in advance?"
The police officer was Weiwei.
Yan Zi said, "President Jia, what do you want to see me for? Where is General Master Cao? Why haven't you seen him?"
Jia Zhengming said, "Unfortunately, General Master Cao passed away."
"What...this, this is impossible..."
Yan Zi's face turned pale, and her bright eyes squinted, "When did this happen? Last night, we had a very happy chat. When I left, General Master Cao was still fine. How could this happen..."
"The reaction was very genuine."
Qin Bing whispered.
"Old Jia, let my people ask."
Duan Kuohai couldn't stand it anymore. Jia Zhengming almost knelt down and licked Yan Zi. How could he ask questions in this state?
Jia Zhengming smiled awkwardly and stepped aside.
Xu Shu took a step forward and said, "Miss Yan, please take a step to speak."
"It's okay if you borrow a step. There's nothing we can't hear. Everyone from the Cao family has gone down. There are only people from the official family here. There's nothing to hide."
Gu Chun waved his hand, and the police officer brought the tables and chairs.
"If you want to ask anything, just ask."
Yan Zi sat down gracefully, her eyes filled with lake water filled with sadness.
Xu Shu sat down opposite him, "When did Miss Yan arrive at Cao's house yesterday, and when did she leave."
Yan Zi thought for a while, "It should be around seven or eight o'clock when we arrived at Cao's house. I can't remember the specific time. It was ten o'clock and five when I left."
"Why do I remember the time I left so clearly?"
"In order to protect my skin, I have to drink a glass of milk before going to bed before 10:30 every day. So before I left, I checked the time."
"Did General Master Cao send you something?"
"No, he was chatting with Mr. Zuo."
Jia Zhengming leaned close to Gu Chun's ear and whispered, "From the confessions of Dongmei and Xia Zhu, we can confirm that Yan Zi visited Cao's house at the same time as a man last night, and that man must be Mr. Zuo."
"What is Mr. Zuo's name, what does he do, and where does he live?"
"I don't know. This is the first time we have met. Mr. Zuo was invited by Chief Master Cao. From the conversation last night, we can see that Mr. Zuo is very knowledgeable about Zen."
"how does he look like?"
"Medium build, Chinese character face, wearing a black top hat with a very low brim."
With a flick of the brush, everyone's expressions changed.
Jia Zhengming ordered the fat sheriff to interrogate Dongmei and Xia Zhu again, and to find painting experts to copy Mr. Zuo's image as much as possible.
Xu Shu stopped the fat sheriff and asked him to bring Dongmei up.
Yan Zi sat on the sofa next to her, and Dongmei took the seat she had previously occupied.
"First, let me tell you about the two guests who visited your master last night. What impression did you have of them?"
"One is...yes, this is the lady. She is very beautiful, and I am very impressed."
Dongmei pointed at Yan Zi, who nodded slightly at her.
Dongmei continued, "There is another gentleman. I only saw him wearing a hat and didn't know what he looked like."
"How is this possible? Since you can clearly see Miss Yan's appearance, how can you not clearly see the face of another visitor?"
"It's true. When the two visitors came, we followed the master's instructions and were looking for the Pu'er tea that the master had stored in the storage room. The master said it would be used to entertain guests.
When the two guests came, I only glanced far away from the window of the storage room. The storage room was at the corner and the sight was not good. The two visitors walked very quickly, and I could only see a man and a woman coming."
"Didn't you bring the tea tray in the master bedroom?"
"Yes."
"But the master took the teapot at the door, and I didn't see it inside."
"Then why did you say that Miss Yan is beautiful? You are deeply impressed by her."
"When Miss Yan left at one o'clock after ten o'clock, I had not yet laid down and was washing up. I happened to meet her on the first floor and she smiled at me."
"What time did the male visitor leave?"
"I have no impression. After I delivered the tea tray, the master asked me to go and have a rest. I specifically asked him to see the guests off and close the door."
"So when you came to deliver medicine to your master at eleven o'clock, the male visitor was already gone?"
"Is such that."
After finishing the questioning, Xu Shu asked someone to take Dongmei down.
Gu Chun sneered, "I've been talking about it for a long time, but it's just a joke."
Xu Shu ignored him and turned around and walked towards the master bedroom. He stood at the door of the master bedroom and looked at the master bedroom, carefully exploring every detail.
After investigating so far, he has not noticed anything unusual.
But I always feel that too many things happened last night, and some things happened too coincidental.
For example, Mr. Zuo, how could he avoid the maid's sight when he came and went?
Moreover, Chief Master Cao obviously didn't want Dongmei to see Mr. Zuo, otherwise, he would never have refused to let Dongmei in with tea.
An hour later, a sketch drawn by Yan Zi's dictation was placed in front of everyone.
"After identification by Liu Sui and Dongmei, the figure and hat shape are exactly like this."
Jia Zhengming's face lit up, "If this is the case, then Mr. Zuo is a serious suspect. As long as this person is caught, all the mysteries will be solved. I have already sent people to investigate the household records. I believe there will be someone soon."
clue."
Two hours later, the police officer who was investigating the household records came to report that he had searched all the household files and could not find Mr. Zuo. The only way to find any clues was to rely on visits, but this would take a long time.
"I'm afraid it's useless to visit. If he really committed the crime, he can't still stay in Chunshen."
Gu Chun said, "The key now is not the identity of Mr. Zuo, but the cause of General Master Cao's death. At least there is no evidence yet that he died of murder."
The interests of Gu Chun and Jia Zhengming are not consistent. Jia Zhengming wants to solve the case, while Gu Chun wants a case involving extraordinary power.
If it was just an ordinary vendetta, his trip would have been in vain.
"Check, check his belongings for me. There are so many books, open them one by one and check them."
Gu Chun shouted loudly.
Xu Shu said anxiously, "Be careful to protect the scene. Do not move anywhere else except the desk."
After another two hours, I actually found something.
A thick notebook with a yellow cover was delivered to Gu Chun. While looking at it, Gu Chun clicked his tongue and laughed and cursed from time to time.
Gu Chun was looking at it intently when a big hand reached out and took off the notebook.
"what are you doing!"
Gu Chun glared at Duan Kuohai.
Duan Kuohai said, "Lao Gu, according to your opinion, it's already dark."
As he said that, he started to read through it, looking at it, and he became fascinated.
Xu Shu couldn't wait any longer, so he snatched the notes from Duan Kuohai's hand, glanced at them briefly, and secretly sighed.
This is a diary of "love born from the heart". It records the process of Cao Guangxiao using the power in his hands to play with women. The description is delicate and the details are rich, not inferior to the writing power of a great master.
