Chapter 188: All the way to the north
Chapter 188 All the way to the north.
When I returned to the county office, it was getting late, and the cold wind was even stronger.
After the officials put Xue Kai and Wang Yuanyuan in prison, they also went back to rest.
It's just that at this time, Bao Zheng and Hua Lang have no intention of resting, because they have to continue to wait for news.
Liang Duo disappeared, and Bao Zheng sent a few officials to look for it, although it was not much, but there should always be some news, so before those officials came back, they really didn't have the heart to rest.
The cold wind outside the living room was blowing, the sky was gloomy, as if it was going to snow again, there was a cup of steaming tea in front of each person's table in the living room, the hot air swirled into the air, and it dissipated faintly, Wen Meng couldn't sit still, she got up and looked outside many times, but there was no news of the servants.
It was dark, it was really snowing in the night sky, the snow was a little heavy, some cold, the ground in the inner courtyard of the county government was soon covered with a layer of white, Hua Lang felt a little cold, kept rubbing his hands, haz, Bao Zheng was sitting in a precarious position, although he was in a hurry, but people couldn't see it.
And at this time, those officials who were looking for Liang Duo finally rushed back.
When they came back, they were a little excited, it seemed that there was news, Bao Zheng looked at them and asked, "What clues have you found?" ”
The official nodded and said, "Today we went to several city gates in Tianchang County and asked, they said that they had seen such a woman, she was alone, all the way north in the afternoon, the doorman also said that he still thought it was strange, how could such a beautiful girl go out of the city gate alone!" ”
Other than that, there is no other useful news.
And after everyone heard the news, they were a little puzzled, Liang Duo went all the way to the north alone, where was she going?
Is someone waiting for her?
Fengxue was more anxious, I am afraid it is impossible to look for it, everyone sat down again, and after drinking a cup of hot tea, Bao Zheng said: "Judging from our investigation today, Xue Kai and Wang Yuanyuan are not the people who killed Zhu Ruzi, because they don't know Zhu Ruzi in Hangzhou at all, and they didn't even take the high-value ring on Zhu Ruzi's body, which shows that they hid Zhu Ruzi's body purely for elopement." ”
After Bao Zheng finished speaking, everyone nodded in agreement, and now that Xue Kai and Wang Yuanyuan have ruled out suspicion, then what they have to do next is to find Liang Duo and figure out who killed Zhu Ruzi.
Also, is there any connection between Liang Duo's disappearance and Zhu Ruzi's disappearance, and if so, why did Zhu Ruzi die here after coming to Tianchang County from Hangzhou, so why did Liang Duo go all the way north?
They can't figure it out for the time being, everything must wait for Zhu Sheng to come before making a decision, of course, if the wind and snow are not very heavy tomorrow, they still send someone to the north to look for it.
When they left the county office, the wind and snow were very urgent, they walked on the road for a while, their hair was snow-white, Wen Mengfrozen's shivering, Hua Lang naturally held her little hand, and strolled towards the detective agency.
The wind was howling, the snow was flying in front of me, and everything seemed to give birth to sin.
After returning to the detective agency, Hanaro lay on the bed and felt the ring with his hand, the ring was very smooth, it was easy to fall off on the hand, but it was very comfortable, if the murderer killed someone at the time, he was very nervous, and it was indeed not easy to notice that the ring had been lost.
It's just that why did Zhu Ruzi come to Tianchang County from Hangzhou, who brutally killed her, what is going on with this ring?
The cold wind blew against the window lattice, and Hanarang fell asleep unconsciously.
The snow didn't fall for long, it stopped in the middle of the night, and the next morning, the snow on the ground was not very thick, but because of the cold weather, the snow seemed to have formed ice cubes, and it was a little difficult to walk up and slippery and grasp it by hand.
This year's winter was indeed too cold.
After having breakfast in a hurry, Hua Lang and the others went to the county government and Bao Zheng to the north to find Liang Duo's traces.
And after they walked about ten miles north, they heard about Liang Duo in a separate tavern.
The owner of the tavern is a little thin, and his beard is very individual, but it gives people the feeling of being obscene, he didn't know the identity of Bao Zheng and others in advance, and he was just an ordinary drinker, so after Hua Lang and them entered the tavern, when the bartender greeted him, the owner of the tavern kept staring at Wen Meng and Hua Wan'er with his eyes, as if he was admiring a work of art.
Seeing the tavern owner like this, Hua Lang felt that he was a bit perverted, and he even suspected that this tavern owner opened a tavern here in order to see beautiful women here.
The tavernkeeper's eyes kept staring at Wen Meng, which made her feel very uncomfortable, so as soon as they entered the tavern, Wen Meng suddenly flicked a peanut, and the peanut hit the tavernkeeper's left eye impartially.
The tavern owner was furious, he came out of the counter, pointed at Hanarang, and asked, "Who threw it?" ”
Hua Lang smiled coldly: "What do I throw away!" ”
At this time, there were seven or eight people around Hua Lang, and when the innkeeper saw that Hua Lang a scholar dared to be so arrogant, he suddenly became weak, kept rubbing his eyes, and said: "There is nothing to do, what do the guest officers want?" ”
Hua Lang smiled disdainfully and said, "Let me ask you a few things, the afternoon before yesterday, did you see a beautiful woman passing by or staying here?" ”
The tavern owner glanced at Hua Lang, and only saw Bao Zheng after the last time, when he saw Bao Zheng's black face, he immediately understood, so he hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, there was indeed a beautiful girl that day, I was still curious, how could there be such a beautiful girl on this road at this time, but unfortunately, after the girl came, she left with a man in the tavern." ”
Liang Duo really made an appointment here, Hua Lang was happy in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "What does that man look like?" ”
The tavern owner thought for a moment and said, "It's very good-looking, with big eyes and thick eyebrows, two dimples when he laughs, a high nose, red lips and white teeth, anyway, he is a beautiful man, sometimes I look at him, I can have different thoughts." ”
Listening to the tavernkeeper's words, Wen Meng said with some disdain: "It's really that good-looking, hum." ”
Hua Lang smiled lightly, according to his logic, the average man is too beautiful and almost feminine, then he must have a heart diametrically opposite to his outside, and such a man, fortunately, was born to the Song Dynasty of the government decree and enlightenment, if he was born to a dynasty where male style prevailed, I am afraid that he would have been bought as a male pet, and he would have suffered from chrysanthemums day and night.
