As Yu Yan spoke, she left the stool and knelt down again. Liang Yuanque had not been treated like this for many years. She really couldn't bear it. She frowned with a fierce expression, "Hey, I didn't tell you not to let you." Are you kneeling?"
For a girl like Yu Yan, this move was much more effective than coaxing her. She froze on the spot, her knees bent, but she never dared to land on the ground.
This action, coupled with the little girl's trembling expression, is actually very funny.
Liang Yuanque smiled very low, turned his head and pursed his lips to suppress a smile, then waved his hand in a pretentious manner, signaling Yu Yan to sit down and tell her what she knew.
So Yu Yan clenched her fists tightly and tremblingly revealed the secret she had been hiding. In fact, Liang Yuanque had already deduced the general experience just now.
In Shen Yuelan's room, the window was wide open. There was a tilted flowerpot stool under the window, but the flowerpot was placed firmly aside. This meant that someone did not enter through this window, but someone stepped on the flowerpot. The basin stool goes out the window.
Someone deliberately removed the flower pot and moved the flower pot stool under the window so that he could climb out of the window.
According to the testimony of the servants, the "thief" whose figure was only seen was very agile and could fly over walls and walls. If "he" or "she" went out through the window, there would be no need for the flower pot stool.
The most likely explanation is that the person stepping out on the stool is Miss Lan herself in the boudoir.
Liang Yuanque had never met Miss Lan, but based on many people's descriptions and reference to her sister Shen Yuexin, he speculated that Miss Lan should be like most of Liucheng's daughters, slender and petite.
With such a body shape, it would be impossible to go out through the window without stepping on something, and the height of the flower pot stool seems to be just right.
The mysterious witness testified that he saw Miss Lan at the second quarter of Xu. Thinking from the perspective that this person's testimony is true, Liucheng is not prosperous, and there were almost no people on the streets at Xu. Who would happen to be there? At this time, he appeared on the street and happened to meet Miss Lan who was quietly going out. And he was very sure that the time was at 2:00 am?
The most likely possibility is that that person did not happen to meet Miss Lan that night, but actually met her!
Since that was the person Miss Lan met when she went out that night, and the other person was so sure of the time, it was not because he happened to meet her at 2:00 pm, but because they were together at 2:00 pm!
About a charming young lady who wants to see someone even if she climbs out of the window in the middle of the night, either a close relative or a loved one.
Close relatives are unlikely. After all, the Shen family sleeps at home at night, and distant relatives cannot be considered close relatives.
Then it can only be the beloved. Zhuang Youjie just returned to Liucheng today, and his dusty appearance does not look fake. It can only be said that Miss Lan's beloved is someone else.
Liang Yuanque came to this conclusion when he looked at the top of Zhuang Youjie's head.
Ah, there seems to be some weird colored hat on Master Zhuang's head.
Yu Yan's reaction just now confirmed Liang Yuanque's conclusion, but what he didn't expect was that this personal girl didn't actually know who his young lady's lover was, and actually mistaken Liang Yuanque for the mysterious lover. little lover.
Maybe she realized that the person who persistently found Shen Yuelan and redressed her injustice could only be her "beloved".
What an innocent and cute little girl, Liang Yuanque thought of this and couldn't help but look at Yu Yan and shook his head.
The eldest brother only left a fleeting testimony for Shen Yuelan, and even refused to tell his true name.
Still not a man!
Yu Yan confessed that Miss Lan met a "sir" somewhere in autumn last year, and since then she often went out to meet him before Xu Shi.
Yu Yan really didn't know about this person, but she heard Shen Yuelan write a letter with a sweet look on her face and whisper "Sir" in a low voice.
Usually when she went out at night, although she would do so secretly, she would still ask Yu Yan to act as a cover and let Yu Yan pretend to be her and stay in the room.
Miss Lan changed her residence because, although the courtyard there was remote, it was close to the back door of the Shen Mansion, making it easy to get in and out. At the same time, she sent away many attendants in the name of Xijing, leaving only one personal maid, Yu Yan. He still lives in the west wing where the young lady used to live, in order to hide his identity from others.
On the night of the incident, Yu Yan still dressed up as Miss Lan and pretended to rest in her room. However, she was very sleepy that night and fell asleep on the bed. When she woke up, she heard a lot of noise outside and the second lady was shivering. The ground stood in the room, and Miss Lan was dead.
The second lady asked why Yuyan was here, and the frightened Yuyan confessed Miss Lan's secret. The second lady forced Yuyan not to tell it in order to protect her sister's reputation, and Yuyan only let her go after she agreed.
Liang Yuanque keenly grasped two important points from Yu Yan's explanation. In order to convince this little girl to explain honestly, he pretended to be Miss Lan's "Mr."
He cleared his throat and imitated Zhuang Youjie's address to Shen Yuelan, "In that case, where are the letters that Sister Lan usually writes?"
When he searched the scene, he didn't find a single piece of paper with writing on it.
Yu Yan was surprised when she heard this, "Liang, Master Liang, didn't those letters come to you? The young lady used to take them out immediately after writing them. She never dared to stay at home."
Liang Yuanque choked up and thought he was careless. This kind of thing really shouldn't be kept by Shen Yuelan. He must have dealt with it by himself.
He hid in the darkness of the room and coughed twice to hide his embarrassment, "Really? I thought she had some left, but this silly girl didn't tell me."
In order not to make Yu Yan suspicious, Liang Yuanque had to quickly cover up this mistake, so he immediately asked, "Well, you said you were very sleepy that night, but did you have any strange things in your mouth?"
"Strange things?" Yu Yan was lost in memories with a confused look on her face, "I just eat a normal meal, is there nothing?"
There was someone dead around her, and such a big movement could not wake up this girl. It was obviously very abnormal. Liang Yuanque speculated that she must have been drugged from somewhere.
Sure enough, someone had already attacked Yuyan in advance, which proves that the murder of Miss Lan was probably the murderer's long-planned plan.
It can be seen from the files of other cases that this serial killer must have conducted a period of investigation and preparation for the victim before each attack.
But this time about Shen Yuelan's case, it seems that the design is too complicated.
Originally, when Liang Yuanque was looking through the files, he suspected that this case was not the work of a murderer like the previous cases, as everyone thought. Now he feels even more strange.
But at the same time, a refreshing feeling arose in his heart. If it wasn't a murderer, then this would count as two cases, and he could earn two commissions.
Yu Yan couldn't recall anything suspicious that she had entered, so Liang Yuanque narrowed the scope for her, "Then think again, did you move anything in Miss Lan's room?" ?”
Yu Yan's expression became even more nervous, and she waved her hands in a panic and said, "No, no, how dare I touch the lady's things!"
Liang Yuanque secretly cursed in his heart. It was too hard to talk to someone with this kind of attitude. Damn it, can I hit her?
"I don't blame you for moving, tell the truth! You have to know that we are doing this for your young lady Zhaoxue!" Liang Yuanque said through his molars.
Yu Yan then lowered her eyes and thought carefully, "I, I seem to have drank a glass of water in the lady's room..."
"Don't act like it, yes or no?" Liang Yuanque glared, "Did you use the cup in her room?"
Yu Yan lowered her head and nodded, "I just used a cup."
Well, now, there is finally a follow-up development regarding the missing teacup.
Seeing that he couldn't extract any useful information from Yu Yan, Liang Yuanque breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and pushed the door open.
Yu Yan also stood up quickly and opened the door for him diligently. Finally, she quietly told him, "Master Liang, don't let anyone see you leaving my place at night."
Fortunately, it was late at night, and the entire Shen Mansion was quiet. There were a few servants watching the night, but no one was there. Liang Yuanque respected Yu Yan's idea and paid special attention to avoiding the night watchman when he went back. As a result, in the Shen Mansion There were many twists and turns, but I couldn't find the road.
After the incident, he had quietly jumped on the wall to observe the layout of the Shen family, but that was during the day and now it was night, so he was still lost in the darkness.
By the moonlight, while groping along the dark path, Liang Yuanque's fingers touched a steaming hole while brushing the flower branches nearby.
It seems like, human nostrils?
Immediately afterwards, screams like a ghost broke out among the flowers!
