Chapter 723: Flowers by the Window

"No!" Zhang Jinghong shook his head and said: "Ordinary people don't hire house slaves, and the one who knows their son best is his mother, but he is a rich family with a group of maidservants, and the one who knows the young master's living habits best should be the person who waits for him by his side."

Ah Chu nodded and praised: "Childe is reasonable, why didn't Ah Chu think of it! In the past, Ah Chu served Master Zhang in Zhang's Mansion, and he knew that he liked sweeter food, and he would usually get up at the same time. Besides, it's close, childe, do you like it...... As soon as I heard the name of Miss Liu, I chased all the way, but I still couldn't catch up, and I missed ...... all the way."

Ah Chu hurriedly stopped talking, and suddenly changed his words: "Childe, I just said it casually, Ah Chu is stupid, and he doesn't know much about Childe's living habits." ā€

Zhang Jinghong ignored these and continued: "So, I prefer to believe what Sister-in-law Li said, since the doctor Stung entered the house, a series of changes outside Li Yuanwai, especially drowsiness, this is a big problem. So I boldly guessed whether it was possible that Ah Shen killed Li Yuanwai in order to get all the money and status of the Li Mansion, or maybe Ah Shen and Jiang Meijie had a personal affair and were discovered by Li Yuanwai, so they killed Li Yuanwai. Just now, Sister-in-law Li's words obviously confirmed this, Sister-in-law Li said that once Li Yuanwai and Jiang Meijie had a dispute because of a sting. ā€

Achu exclaimed, "So...... Childe felt more and more that this sting was suspenseful?" Zhang Jinghong said with a solemn face: "Not only that, Sister-in-law Li is a left-hander, so I think the murderer is not her." ā€

Achu couldn't wait to ask: "Childe, what do you say?" Zhang Jinghong replied: "I have observed Li Yuanwai's wounds, a dagger is fatal, the person who shot is fast and accurate, the murderer should be a practitioner, or a person who understands the structure of the human body." As a doctor, Ah Stung is very much in line with this, he knows what kind of strength and what position a dagger can kill. Sister-in-law Li is a woman's family, one does not know martial arts, and the other is to take care of the elderly and children in the family, this is a typical woman who respects the old and loves the young, how can she be ruthless to take people's lives with a dagger?"

Ah Chu nodded and said, "What Gongzi said is really reasonable!" Zhang Jinghong continued: "The dagger did not pass through Li Yuanwai's entire chest, obviously the murderer was facing Li Yuanwai, facing each other. If the murderer wants to succeed in one blow, he must be sure of nine out of ten, Sister-in-law Li is a left-hander, according to her shooting habits, if she wants to kill Li Yuanwai, it is more convenient to insert the dagger from the back of the heart. Since the murderer chose to go from the front, he is by no means left-handed. ā€

Ah Chu shouted: "Then what are we waiting for, immediately go and tell everyone that Sister-in-law Li is innocent and Ah Stung is suspicious." As he spoke, he walked out of the hallway.

"Wait!" Zhang Jinghong said: "I can only say that Sister-in-law Li is innocent, but there is no evidence that Ah Stung is the murderer." If you run out like this and shout loudly, it will not help, it will only do bad. ā€

Ah Chu hurriedly paused and asked urgently, "What is that boy's trick to lure you out of the real murderer?" ā€

"For a while, I don't have a clever plan!" Zhang Jinghong said helplessly: "We have to look for the Yuanwai Mansion again, and then ask the guards and Yahuan in the mansion if they have encountered anything suspicious recently, whether there are any suspicious people and suspicious things." ā€

Ah Chu answered: "That son, go to the rooms to inquire about the guards and the maid ring and hand it over to Ah Chu, and leave it to you to check around the house." Childe rest assured, when asking, Achu must be careful and cautious, not to omit any tiny details, some important ones, just write them down on paper, lest my brain forget it. ā€

"Well, that's good. Zhang Jinghong said again: "The guard Yahuan will be handed over to you, and I will personally ask Jiang Meijie and Ah Ting." But before that, let's look at one more thing. ā€

Ah Shen hurriedly asked, "What is it, Childe?" Zhang Jinghong walked to Li Yuanwai's room, and said: "The flowers belong to Lao Li Yuanwai, and there are a few pots in the yard and study, and the master is very dedicated to watering them, and they are not allowed to touch them." And Sister-in-law Li also said that Li Yuanwai would personally water his flower pots and never fake his hands to others. I'm very curious, it's just a few flowers, why do you pay so much attention to it, until he is sick and can't take care of it himself, so he will ask Sister-in-law Li to do it. ā€

Achu exclaimed: "Could it be that Gongzi suspects that there is something wrong with this flower pot?" Zhang Jinghong responded: "I can't say that there is any problem, it's just that the old man attaches so much importance to a few pots of flowers and plants, which is really a bit abnormal, so I want to find out." ā€

While talking, Zhang Jinghong and the two returned to the room, and at this time, Sister-in-law Li had already eaten, knelt on the ground reverently, and muttered silently. Seeing them, Sister-in-law Li bowed respectfully and did not speak.

Zhang Jinghong came to the window again, opened the curtains, and saw two pots of blooming flowers, which were very delicate. Achu also followed, leaned over, and looked closely.

Ah Chu muttered, "What secrets can be discovered by two pots of flowers?" Suddenly, the breeze blew, the flowers and leaves shook, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he exclaimed: "Childe, look, there is really something wrong with this flower." ā€

Zhang Jinghong said in a dignified voice: "Tell me, what did you find?" Achu replied: "This pot of flowers is all facing outward, while the other pot of flowers is all facing inward, growing in the same environment, how can this be?"

Looking at it, Zhang Jinghong had a smile in his eyes, and he said: "The flowers have the characteristics of the sun, these two pots of flowers are facing one inside and one outside, and the murderer is really careless." They removed the pot of flowers that were facing the room, and saw that the bottom of the pot was unusually deep, and that it was covered with a layer of dry earth. Zhang Jinghong picked up the soil, his fingers went deep into it, until the bottom, and actually fished out a gold bar from it.

"It's a gold bar!" Ah Chu exclaimed, and Sister-in-law Li also got up, looking at all this in disbelief. Zhang Jinghong reminded: "Achu, be quiet, don't forget, the murderer is from the house, don't let anyone outside the house hear it." ā€

Zhang Jinghong moved another pot of flowers, and the bottom of this pot had long been emptied, leaving only soil. He quickly made the decision to put the gold bar back in its place, and the two pots of flowers back in their place, still facing one inside and one outside.

Sister-in-law Li said in a trembling voice: "I have been cleaning the master's room for so many years, but I didn't know that there were gold bars hidden at the bottom of this flower pot, which is too surprising." ā€

Zhang Jinghong analyzed: "No wonder Li Yuanwai wants to water these flowers in person, it turns out that this is the case." If I'm not mistaken, the bottom of the flower pot in the study and the yard should also hide precious things, and the bottom of this flower pot is like Li Yuanwai's hidden treasure. It's just that unfortunately, the murderer discovered the secret and took all the things away. This gold bar was at the bottom, and the murderer leaked this one in a hurry, so that he didn't notice the inside and outside of the pot, which was really a hundred secrets. ā€
