"So my idea is to talk about this matter after Qi Zhen and Meng Ran wake up." Jiang Yan said.
"Then what should the two of us do next?"
Li Qiang's question was more like a test.
What Jiang Yan didn't know was that the deaths of Lin Xiao and Li San caused some subtle changes in Li Qiang's inner thoughts.
Now Qi Zhen alone has lost the leadership of the team. If Li Qiang also loses consciousness at this time, the team will inevitably face a leaderless situation.
They can't afford to lose any more teammates.
So what Li Qiang is doing now is to give Yu Liang, Jiang Yan, and even Meng Ran the ability to think independently, instead of having the ability to only follow orders.
"Captain, are you okay?" Jiang Yan's doubts became more serious. She looked at Li Qiang and asked.
"It's okay. We can't sleep in this situation anyway. Just tell me and give me a reference." Li Qiang said.
Li Qiang was right about this.
Although the possibility is very small, with a life-threatening lawsuit involving a housekeeper who has been with him for many years, it is difficult to say whether Zhang Dacai would impulsively report to the police in the middle of the night.
Or maybe something unexpected will happen here and catch the team by surprise.
No matter from which angle they looked at it, the two of them had to wait until Qi Zhen woke up before they could rest in peace.
The so-called nip in the bud generally refers to the current state of the two of them.
To put it harshly, it can also be called the roar of the wind and the frightened bird.
Jiang Yan thought for a while and said, "What the two of us have to do now must be divided into two aspects. One is to ensure that no more accidents happen before Qi Zhen and Meng Ran wake up."
Li Qiang nodded.
"The second aspect is to use this contact with Zhang Zongchang to find any clues he may have left in this house for Qi Zhen to make judgments. This includes not only his residence, but also the things in his home. Other servants include Zhang Dacai and his wife and old lady."
Jiang Yan thought for a while and continued: "But there is one thing I haven't thought about, which is whether to let family members other than Zhang Dacai know about Zhang Zongchang. I'm worried that it might cause trouble." Seeing Li Qiang's silence, Jiang Yan asked Said: "Captain, am I wrong?"
Li Qiang shook his head: "You are right, but I can add something to you. We don't have to discuss this matter with Zhang Dacai's family from Zhang Zongchang's point of view. We can use the teapot matter to discuss this matter with the Zhang family." The family members asked."
"Is this... okay?" Jiang Yan was a little unsure.
"Then it depends on whether Zhang Dacai can think clearly about this matter through this night." Li Qiang said
…
At dawn the next day, Zhang Dacai knocked on Li Qiang and Jiang Yan's door again.
Looking at his sunken eye sockets and thick dark circles, Li Qiang knew that he had not slept all night.
"Boy, I've thought about it clearly."
"Boss Zhang, are you going to report us to the police, or are you sending someone to notify Uncle Zong?" Li Qiang asked softly.
Zhang Dacai waved his hands repeatedly, but he was filled with surprise and uncertainty in his heart.
He didn't understand why Li Qiang and Jiang Yan would guess that he had thought this way.
Compared with the Qi Zhen team in front of him, Zhang Dacai had sufficient reasons to make these two choices, whether from the perspective of the old housekeeper who had lived with him for many years or from the perspective of a life-threatening lawsuit.
"No matter what you do, we can understand it, so there is no need to feel indebted." Li Qiang seemed to know Zhang Dacai's thoughts and said softly.
"But now that you have made up your mind, please don't be a capricious person." Jiang Yan said.
His little thoughts last night were seen through by the other party. Zhang Dacai's face turned red and he said: "Don't dare, don't dare."
After the three of them made plans for the next action, Li Qiang and Jiang Yan followed Zhang Dacai to Zhang Zongchang's house. Zhang Dacai took Li San's teapot to ask his mother and two wives. .
After seeing Zhang Zongchang's room, Li Qiang and Jiang Yan once again had a deeper understanding of Zhang Zongchang.
His room actually gave people a stereotyped feel.
The books on the corner of the table must be complete and at a ninety-degree angle to the edge of the table. The five pens on the pen holder are arranged from small to large and from left to right, like a string of wind chimes.
Both the positioning of tables and chairs and the placement of tea sets are meticulous, and there is no trace of use at all.
However, both the tables, chairs and beds were completely neat and clean, with not a trace of dust visible, proving that these things were frequently used and wiped by him.
According to another world, Zhang Zongchang must be a severe obsessive-compulsive disorder patient.
Naturally, apart from marveling at Zhang Zongchang's meticulousness, the two people did not find any seemingly useful clues, whether it was the content and preferences of the books, or anything that could prove or reflect his identity.
This was not beyond their expectations.
The two left his room, but happened to bump into the servant who came to hang the birds in the yard.
This servant participated in helping to move people last night. He saw the two people coming out of the house and said hello.
Yesterday, before leaving, the master and all the servants told him that Uncle Zong had something to do and went back to his hometown in the countryside to visit relatives.
This is new.
Probably because Uncle Zong didn't talk much, all the servants didn't know that he actually had a hometown and relatives in his hometown.
Although it could be felt that this matter was a bit unusual, no one dared to ask more questions. They could only whisper a few words before going to bed.
In addition, the master also made it clear to these servants that these people are his distant relatives who are here to visit relatives, so that the servants should take good care of them and don't be slow to treat them.
Oh my God, I also have distant relatives?
How come it appears in the wine cellar?
Why is one dead?
If the master doesn't tell, the servants don't dare to ask.
Such a big mistake was naturally caused by the fact that Zhang Dacai was extremely panicked and couldn't make up a decent lie to conceal the matter.
But the servants are very good at observing words and emotions. Since the master said not to be slow, then just do what the master said.
How do you say don’t wait patiently?
In the eyes of the servants, just treat him like a master.
So today's Zhang Mansion is a little strange.
The person who most felt the strangeness of this matter was neither Zhang Dacai, nor Li Qiang and Jiang Yan, nor even these servants.
But the chef of Zhang Mansion.
The steamed buns in the basket have been heated twice, and the porridge in the pot has almost turned into rice. Why hasn't anyone come to serve it yet?
