Liang Yuanque said and walked into the house. Shen Yuexin was still making a fuss outside the house. Yu Yan and Zhuang Youjie blocked her outside the door.
Shen Yuelan's boudoir was extremely dark. Liang Yuanque didn't bother to light the lamp. He took out a copper-cased oil lighter and quickly checked the room.
The furnishings in the house are roughly as they were when the crime occurred. I really want to thank the losers in the police station for their professionalism. However, the window on the side of the house is closed, and there is a high-legged flowerpot stool that has been kicked down under the window. Next to it was a pool of dried blood, where Miss Lan's body was found.
Gee, it would be better if you could see the body, but this is a bit difficult to handle.
After all, Shen Yuelan was a respectable eldest lady, and the Shen family was not so open-minded that they could not let the girl die and let others watch. Therefore, not even a photo of the body was left in the police station.
Liang Yuanque took a general look at all the items in the house and felt that the position of the short potted plant in the corner was not quite right. Maybe it was originally placed on the flowerpot bench.
But the strange thing is that the flower pot stool was overturned to the ground, but it stayed firmly on the ground.
The noise outside the house faded away, and Zhuang Youjie braved his courage and walked in quietly, "Mr. Liang?"
"Yeah." Liang Yuanque responded.
"Did you find anything?" Zhuang Youjie followed the voice and approached him.
"I found something unreasonable, and..." In addition to the potted plants, Liang Yuanque also vaguely felt that something was wrong in this room, but could not confirm it for a while.
He pinched his chin and walked around the round table in the center of the room. Finally, he discovered something was wrong. He suddenly opened the tea tray covered by the lace cloth. Inside, there was a small teapot and three items. cup.
This is a simple tea set, with only a pot and tasting cups. Now even Zhuang Youjie noticed something was wrong, "Why are there only three teacups?"
"Someone took one away," Liang Yuanque seemed to be saying to himself, "Why?"
Under normal circumstances, no matter how simple a set of tea sets is, there are at least four tasting cups. However, some people with ordinary lives simply cannot get together a set of tea sets, so the number of tasting cups is also uncertain. But a wealthy family like the Shen family certainly did not provide them. The reason why the eldest lady uses "makeshift" tea sets.
"Why?" Zhuang Youjie chewed on his words and thought he was asking himself, so he said confusedly, "Are you asking me?"
Hearing this, Liang Yuanque gave him another free look, then squatted in front of the blood and started to observe. His serious aura made Zhuang Youjie a little scared, so he didn't dare to speak anymore.
After a long time, Liang Yuanque stood up and staggered while holding his forehead. Zhuang Youjie came over to meet him, but unexpectedly he fell into his arms, breathing rapidly.
"What's wrong with you?" Zhuang Youjie has been frightened too much today, and his heart can hardly bear it.
"Tell me in detail what happened to the second young lady on the day the crime happened, and then go find out about Wang Shun..." Liang Yuanque gasped and told Zhuang Youjie.
"You, you, you, please slow down!" Zhuang Youjie hugged him, at a loss.
"And... and..." Liang Yuanque's breathing became increasingly rapid, as if he was about to lose his breath.
"What else?" Zhuang Youjie was so anxious and frightened that he almost couldn't help but cry.
"Also, you can give me a piece of candy or a sweet pastry..."
Liang Yuanque said and fell into Zhuang Youjie's arms.
Zhuang Youjie carried Liang Yuanque out of Miss Lan's bedroom and hurriedly called to the servants to prepare a guest room and get snacks.
Originally, the servants of the Shen family were preparing a room for the two of them upon Master Shen's order. Now, after hurriedly cleaning up, they led the two of them into the room.
Zhuang Youjie leaned the swaying Liang Yuanque on the bed, took the snacks handed over by the maid at hand and stuffed them into his mouth.
"Hey, hey, that's not the case." Liang Yuanque pushed him away in a panic as his face was rubbed with snack scum.
Zhuang Youjie also realized that he was rude in his panic and hurriedly handed the snack to his hand.
"Have you ever gone to the hospital for examination in this situation, sir?"
"Well," Liang Yuanque took a small bite of the snack, answered vaguely and then changed the subject, "Master Zhuang, can you find a way to find out about the two things I just told you?"
He glanced at Zhuang Youjie and felt a little guilty. He was afraid that the other party would think that I paid to hire you and you still let me work, so he explained as if to make up for it: "I just hope that the case can be solved as soon as possible. If it is delayed, it will be delayed." , I’m afraid the murderer may have gone to the ends of the earth a long time ago.”
Zhuang Youjie was a straight-minded guy, and he had no doubts about Liang Yuanque's emissary. When he heard Liang Yuanque's explanation, he agreed very much, and he also vaguely expected to be able to help the detective.
So after Zhuang Youjie agreed wholeheartedly, the two of them discussed it. Liang Yuanque still felt bad about not working for money, so he decided to divide the work with Zhuang Youjie.
They agreed that Zhuang Youjie would go to the uncle who was now the concierge to inquire about the previous concierge Wang Shun. After all, he still held the title of uncle. The servants of the Shen family had some respect for him, so it was easier to talk in a formula. ; And Liang Yuanque himself proposed that he went to Yuyan to inquire about the situation on the night of the incident, because he was better at dealing with women.
Even if you are as straight-minded as Master Zhuang, you can't help but look at his cheek being slapped by the second lady and think, you'd better be really good at dealing with it.
Speaking of questioning, they should have asked Shen Yuexin as the first witness first. As for why they didn't go to Shen Yuexin to understand the situation, it was naturally because neither of them remembered her crazy look. Erlai was muttering in her heart that she was scared, and no one wanted to provoke her.
It can't be said that he is afraid of a little girl like her. It's just a person like this. No one wants to cause trouble.
Zhuang Youjie made an excuse and said that although Miss Lan is gone now, Shen Yuexin is still his sister-in-law, so it is not appropriate for him to visit late at night. Liang Yuanque covered his slapped face and said that he was not good at dealing with women. Contains this type.
"Hey, sister Yue Xin saw the miserable state of sister Lan. Could it be that she was so frightened that she had a mental problem?" When the topic came up about Shen Yuexin, Zhuang Youjie sighed, thinking about how she had just gone crazy.
"She wasn't like this before, right?" Just in case, Liang Yuanque asked again.
"That's for sure," Zhuang Youjie replied, "Sister Yuexin used to be a gentle girl just like Sister Lan, and she was even a little more introverted."
Liang Yuanque didn't say anything after hearing this. He just smiled, but his meaning was unclear.
