Chapter 494: The Case of the Carriage Falling into the River (End)
"It's going to rain for at least three or four days."
One man noticed that there was a good wine in the inn, and asked for a pot, and after a while all the people were vying to get up, and everyone began to drink it vigorously. Xiaoli kept walking between the tables. Everywhere she went, someone stretched out her arm, and she feigned anger and pushed them away. Night fell. The people finished their work on the river, and by this time, they could no longer expect to find any dead bodies. If there were, it would have flowed into the Xijiang River long ago.
One of the salvage men said to the innkeeper, "What did you prepare for us for dinner?" "Nothing!" It wasn't the boss who was the least surprised, he searched with his eyes to see who dared to answer for him, and that it was completely contrary to his business. It was none other than Xiao Yu'er who answered. As he spoke, he calmly walked over to the people. "Gentlemen, I ask you not to eat here tonight. But I do not forbid you to come back here to sleep around midnight, if you are happy to return. However, I strongly hope that only those who were here last night will remain. Bao Heizi seemed to have this sentence in his head, and inadvertently shouted, "Is it a live re-enactment?" ā
Xiao Yu'er shook her head vigorously and vetoed: "No! Now I warn you, it is no good to stay around, and if anyone tries to make trouble, I promise him to be like this tree. After speaking, he slapped his palm lightly.
"Smack" is crisp.
Xiao Yu'er turned around, only to hear the table squeak and fall to the ground, falling to pieces. Everyone stared at the bull's eye and was stunned. This guy has such a hand?
When the onlookers left, Xiao Yu'er felt that even her breathing was more relaxed than before. He looked at the angry boss and said, "Forget it! You've made a fortune on wine, so don't worry about your meals! Didn't they start drinking it early in the morning? Boss Luo complained in his heart, but when he saw Xiao Yu'er's unique skill, he knew that he was most likely a dish in his hand, and it was not enough to fight. "They could have kept drinking!" ā
Xiao Yu'er said: "Listen to me, the most important thing is that everyone who stays in the inn should be in their positions last night, and the lights are as ...... as yesterday" Boss Luo was afraid of Xiao Yu'er's obscenity, and said: "This is not difficult." "People seem to have forgotten that there is another person: the coachman Lao Wang. He observed Xiao Yu'er in surprise, and finally opened his mouth: "What about me?" "You, take me to the inn where you are eating." "Take my car?" "Of course, why not?" "Whatever you want! If this works for you......" So, Xiao Yu'er got into a car that made a hellish noise and left Boss Luo's inn and went to the inn frequented by the coachman Lao Wang. Asked, "Where am I dropping you off?" "Along the way, it was still raining heavily. Both men were silent. It's not that the latter has become more and more threatening to him, or that the latter is expressing his bad feelings in another way. In fact, on the contrary, Xiao Yu'er is very calm. There were even a few times when there was a hint of a smile in his eyes. It seems that he has a lot of confidence in himself. If someone asks him what he is laughing at, he will gladly say to you, "What a wonderful life is!" While tasting the taste of old wine, he said, "It's almost there, right?" ā
"It's coming." Lao Wang replied.
Only three cars were parked in front of the very modest-looking inn. But inside the inn, it's easy for the dart bearers to find their tasty side dishes. The proprietress entertains customers herself, and she has a fourteen-year-old daughter who gives her a hand. "Yo. Why are you here again? When she saw Lao Wang come in, she was taken aback. After shaking hands with the other coachmen one by one, Lao Wang sat down in a corner with Xiao Yu'er. "Let's eat what you ate here yesterday, okay?" Xiao Yu'er said. "There aren't thirty-six dishes here. Everyone eats whatever they eat that day,...... You see, the beef in sauce ......" and "Oh, this is my favorite ......" in these few minutes. Isn't there some kind of change in attitude in the big coachman? His affection was not as cheerful as it had been. He glanced at his interlocutor a few times, probably full of suspicion, and couldn't figure out what the hell was going on in the little fish's belly. "The hostess. Hurry up! We don't have much time for the rest of us......" "You always talk about that, but when you're done, you'll have to stay for a quarter of an hour to finish your drink." "The sauce beef tastes great, and the old rice wine is purer than the taste in the shop. Xiao Yu'er looked around, seemingly impatiently waiting for the other drivers to leave here. The gang finally stood up after drinking the old wine, and after a while they heard the neighing of horses. "Get me some old wine, too." Xiao Yu'er commanded. Then he said to Lao Wang: "That's how you came last night, didn't you?" "That's right" "Let's go! ā
"Are you going back there?" "Exactly the same as yesterday...... Does this make you annoying? "Me? Why do you hate me? I didn't hide anything anyway. ā
At this time, the proprietress came over and asked the driver: "Tell me, have you talked to him about the things I have entrusted me?" "Of course we talked about it, and we all talked about it." As soon as he got into the car, Xiao Yu'er asked him, "Who is he?" "It's a friend of mine, and the proprietress has a crush on my friend haha......" "It's raining so hard?" "It's even bigger than yesterday,...... Think about it, you have to run the car all night in this kind of damn weather......" "Aren't we driving faster?" "......We people," Wang muttered, "people are always yelling at us, because we are always driving in the middle of the road." The body is large and the movements are not flexible. If those people try to harness this behemoth......"
"Neigh~~~" The horse was pulled by the reins.
Suddenly, followed by a scolding, an emergency brake made the little fish almost fly out.
"Fuck! ......," Lao Wang shouted. He looked at his companion and complained, "You made the car park here, right?" "Indeed, there was a car parked in the same place where Wang Bo's car was hit yesterday. It's a gray car, exactly like that one! God, it's raining heavily! The night is so dark that you can't see your fingers! There is no lighting in front again! But the carriage stopped more than three meters from the cart! For a moment, there was a look of anger on the driver's face, but he restrained himself. Just complained, "You should have informed me beforehand, what if I didn't see it in time?" "But we were talking about ...... at the moment" "And what about later?" "Yesterday you were driving alone...... You must be preoccupied, right? Lao Wang shrugged his shoulders and asked, "What else do you want to do now?" "Let's get out of the car right away,...... Here's ...... Wait a minute...... I'm going to make a real yĆ n,...... How many times do you shout for help now......" "Me? "Because the person who shouted here yesterday was not there, someone has to replace him." The coachman, Lao Wang, shouted a few times reluctantly, sniffing out that there must be a trap in it. But what worried him the most was when he heard footsteps and saw a figure walking in the dark. "Come here!" Little Fish shouted to the newcomer. The person who came was the fisherman Lao Yang. This is Xiao Yu'er asked Bao Heizi to call him, and no one told him in advance. "How?" "I can't say it's very sure...... But I think it's pretty much the same. "What?" The coachman muttered. "I don't know who shouted it, but I can say it's similar to yesterday's." This time, the coachman, Lao Wang, almost lost his breath. He still didn't understand what role he played in this play, and it was a itch to the roots. "Get in the car!" Someone approached. Until then, this man had been standing by. "It's all good!" Little Yu'er whispered to the man, "For the rest, let's see!" He sat down next to the coachman Wang, and the coachman Wang no longer wanted to pretend to be polite. What am I doing now? "Just like yesterday!"
"Like yesterday? Take your liking! I don't understand what's going on in your head. But if you think I'm involved in this......" They had already come to the opposite side of Boss Luo's inn. Inside the inn is lit with lanterns. There was an awkward silence. This one frowned, holding back the fire in his belly, and every movement was full of energy. The other one, leisurely drinking in a dimly lit corner. That's it. They came to Peach Blossom Village.
Suddenly, Xiao Yu'er pointed out: "You drove over......" "What have you driven?" "...... "You, you're always looking for some wordy things!" ...... "He wanted to reverse because the village chief was fifty paces behind. "Nope! No need to rewind! Xiao Yu'er objected. Go on! "Continue on what?" "Keep doing exactly what you did last night." "But I went to ......" "You didn't go to the land security right away,...... The proof is that the timing was wrong. ā¦ā¦ Where are your friends? "It's on the second corner of this street." "Get there!" "What are you going to do?" "Do nothing,...... Do as I tell you. "This is a very ordinary blacksmith. There was no light in the shop, but a figure could be seen shaking inside the shop. As soon as the carriage stopped, the horse neighed, and a man stepped out of it
"What's wrong with the car?" He asked, without even lifting his eyelids. After a while, when he recognized it as Lao Wang, he glanced at him and asked, "What are you doing here?" I thought ......" "Give me a reel" The little fish was still in his corner, and the blacksmith owner did not see him.
The blacksmith thought that he was alone with his companion and was about to say something more, but the coachman Lao Wang had already sensed that the danger was imminent, and hurriedly spoke: "Hey, little brother, is this all you ask to do?" The blacksmith asked, "Ah, there is someone with you?" "There's a guy who wants to do a live rehearsal, that's what he said...... I don't understand anything...... Always looking for trouble with the little people, and to ......" Xiao Yu'er jumped out of the car and walked into the blacksmith shop, which surprised the blacksmith shop owner. Xiao Yu'er went straight to the back of the shop and walked to the boss's wife. "Lao Wang wants to ask how that thing was arranged......" he asked with a pretended nonchalant look. She looked at him suspiciously, leaned up to the window and looked out, and said, "Is he here, old Wang?" "He's repairing cars." "No one is bothering him, is there?" Unsure of why the man in the round hat had suddenly burst in, she took two uneasy steps to the door. It's not very bright outside, and it's hard to see a person's face. "Tell me, Ason......" she called out the door. Ah Song is her husband, and he is holding Shuri's car in his hand, looking very embarrassed. "Is Wang there?" She asked again, "Are you coming, Ah Song?" At this time, Xiao Yu'er clearly heard one of the two men asking the other, "What shall we do?" He warily grasped the dagger hidden in his pocket. Be prepared to take him up as soon as necessary. The streets were empty, and there was not a glimmer of light. Lao Wang, the coachman, is the kind of person who can knock the opponent down with one punch. "What are you going to do, you?" The woman was still standing in the doorway, cold and clenching her shoulders. The coachman, Lao Wang, got out of the saddle and paced hesitantly on the road for two steps. "Shall we come inside and talk?" Xiao Yu'er commanded him. Lao Wang, the coachman, who had not yet made up his mind, stood up slowly. In the end, it was him, while walking towards the door of the shop, he muttered to Xiao Yu'er: "I didn't expect things to be like this...... Please, little brother. ā
Xiao Yu'er came in and saw the shop clearly. Inside, there was a carved oak cabinet, a checkered lacquered cloth on the table, and the vases and furnishings were all from the open-air market, and the color was either bright red or light purple, which made people feel vulgar at first glance. "You may be seated," the woman whispered, mechanically wiping the table in front of Xiao Yu'er. Ah Song took out a jar of wine and four bowls from the cupboard, and filled each cup without saying a word. Wang sat down sideways, his arms resting on the back of his chair. "What do you suspect?" He asked, staring into the eyes of the little fish. "There are two reasons why I have doubts about something: first, someone heard the cries for help, but only the man's. This is quite puzzling. Because there was a young girl at the accident site, if she also fell into the water, she was good at water, and she could support a burst of shouts for help on the water...... Another point. After this kind of car accident, I didn't stop and went to the inn to find someone to help for help. Instead, he continued to drive ten miles to find the land security ...... in Peach Blossom Village And at that time there were lights in the inn...... This makes people can't help but think ......" "Of course, this is what he wants to do......" The coachman Lao Wang agreed. "Apparently he's sitting in the car, isn't he?" At this point, it's too late to think back. Besides, the two men had already made up their minds, and the woman appeared to have fallen to the ground with a stone. She said: "It's better to talk to the plate!" If you can't do it for a hundred taels, you can ......" "Let Lao Wang talk about it......" her husband interjected.
At this time, the coachman Lao Wang had already drunk his bowl of wine and began to speak: "Let's treat it as if it happened last night and tonight." ā¦ā¦ You're not mistaken...... Even though it was raining, my eyes were good enough to avoid crashing into a car parked on the road...... I stopped two steps away from the car, and I thought it was breaking down. I got out of the saddle and tried to help him...... But I saw the man's look flustered. He asked me if I wanted to earn a hundred taels ......" "If you could help him push the carriage into the river?" Xiao Yu'er interjected. If he just wanted to push, he could have pushed the cart into the water by himself. He was doing that when I got there,...... But he would rather that someone would take him away and make people forget him forever. I don't think I would have been fooled if he was alone. But there was a little girl next to her...... "Is she still alive?" "Of course alive. To make up my mind to help him, he explained to me. There are people who don't want them to get married, but they love each other, and they want to make people believe that it's suicide, so that people can break off the idea of finding them again, so that they can never be separated,...... I don't really like this kind of trick,...... But if you see the girl standing in the rain...... To cut a long story short, I helped them crash the car into the river,...... They told me to shout for help in order to make things look real, and I did the same...... In this way, people will think that they are all drowned,...... Then I took them to Downriver Town. ā
"Halfway through, I realized that the young man was not an idiot. ā¦ā¦ He knew he couldn't go to a hotel,...... He asked me if I had any acquaintances who could take them in for a few days and hide until the government investigation was over,...... Then I thought of Ason......" the woman admitted, "and we thought it was a lover,...... It just so happened that we had a room here. "Have they been living in your house all this time?" "She's gone......" "What's going on?" At this time, the little fish looked around uneasily. "In the afternoon," Assunban began, "when I heard that there was a dead body, I went to ask him if it was true about the corpse. The girl took advantage of the door open and ran out suddenly...... "Aren't you wearing a coat?" "No coat or hat......" "What about the young man?" "He swore to me, not understanding what it was all about, that he had just bought the carriage, and that he didn't have the heart to check what was in the trunk......" "Do you have any other doors besides this one?" At the moment when Ah Song said "no", suddenly there was a commotion on the street. The little fish hurried to the road, and saw a person lying there, a young man, who was struggling with his life, despite the broken leg that he had broken from the second floor, trying in vain to get up and escape. The scene looks both dramatic and compassionate. Wang Bo was like crazy, and he was not willing to accept his defeat.
"If you dare to come closer, I'll stab you to death......" he roared madly in the resting ground.
Xiao Yu'er ignored him and threw himself at him, and he didn't poke it...... Maybe it's timidity, maybe it's the loss of necessary composure. "Now, be honest......" Wang Bo resented the coachman Ah Wang, Ah Song and his wife for betraying him. This is the kind of person who is typical of self-inflicted, the kind of person who has unfortunately been studied by Xiao Yeru for dozens of cases: insidious, dreaming of getting a qiÄ, greedy for pleasure and money, to the point of unscrupulous means. "Zheng Shuang, where is she now?" Xiao Yu'er asked as she tied him up. "I don't know." So you succeeded in convincing her. You got the car into the river, just to make people think that this was a love killing? "She won't leave me for a single ......" "That makes you anxious, doesn't it?" With a corpse but can't get rid of it! "It's a murder that's stupid, it's ugly, and it's self-defeating.
Wang Bo saw that his marriage plan was bankrupt, and even if he kidnapped Zheng Shuang, he would not be able to get the deceased's money, so he had a bad heart for one of his old mistresses. The woman was no longer young, and he led her to his house, killed her, took her purse, and used part of it to buy a cheap carriage, intending to find a secluded place to dump the body again. Unexpectedly, at this time, Zheng Shuang suddenly came to his house to look for him. The girl's love and lust govern her, and she is determined not to return home again, but to go away with her lover, and share the joys and sorrows.
Since then, she hasn't left her lover! Hour by hour passed, and the carriage carried the body all the time. Zheng Shuang always thought that she was spending a real honeymoon, but she never thought that she herself was in the center of a disgusting ugly drama! She hugged the man she loved, and the other one was preoccupied with how to dispose of the package containing the dead body as best she could.
Just when he had no other plan and was determined to make a desperate attempt to create a suicide illusion, an unexpected carriage of goods came to his aid, and as a result, the matter was complicated...... (To be continued......)
