Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 68 There are clues

Mrs. Ruo waited anxiously in the mansion, Cui'er supported the panic-stricken person, and looked outside the door step by step.

"Why hasn't the master come back yet, and I don't know how Shi Yu is doing." Mrs. Ruo complained anxiously.

Tweety comforted her and said, "Madam, don't worry, the master should be back soon."

While talking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the yard, and after a closer look, he could see that it was his master. Mrs. Ruo hurried out, and was about to ask, when the two people behind him stopped talking.

"Lan Ze, why are you here today?" Mrs. Ruo said in a surprised tone.

"Nanzhi heard that something happened to Miss Ruo, so he brought me over to have a look." Shen Lanze said bluntly.

When Lu Nanzhi heard these words, he pinched him hard. Why did this man speak so directly? Can't it be said that he wanted to come over and take care of him?

Shen Lanze remained motionless, as if he was not the one being pinched.

Ruo Madam came back to her senses and hurriedly invited the two to the living room, Tweety saw the visitor and turned to make tea.

Ruo Chaofeng told his wife the news of his daughter's detention. Hearing the bad news, Ruo's wife almost couldn't stand, she sat down slowly with her hands on the table.

"How could this be? My daughter doesn't know how to kill people. Shi Yu is so kind. She can't even bear to hurt a bird on weekdays. How could she kill someone?"

Ruo Chaofeng sighed, with worry flashing across his face, "I don't understand these truths, but now all the evidence points to my daughter, unless we can find stronger evidence or find the murderer, we can prove that my daughter didn't kill anyone."

"Hey, where are we going to find this? If we can't find evidence, wouldn't our daughter be framed as a murderer!" Mrs. Ruo panicked, fearing that Shuntian Mansion would convict her daughter because they couldn't find the murderer.

Lu Nanzhi coughed a few times, and said from the side: "It's useless to worry here, why don't we go to the scene first to see if there are any clues."

Ruo Chaofeng listened, his eyes lit up immediately, "That's right, since murder will definitely leave clues, let's go to the scene to see first."

Mrs. Ruo wanted to follow along, but Ruo Chaofeng told her to stay at home and wait for the news.

When Tweety came back with tea, they just left in a hurry.

She put the tea on the table, poured a cup for Madam and handed it over, and asked casually: "Madam, why did Mr. Shen and Miss Lu appear here? Is it because of Miss?"

Madam Ruo waved her hand, she was not in the mood to drink tea at the moment, "Well, they heard the news of Shi Yu's accident, so they came here to take a look."

"He still has some conscience." Tweety stood aside and muttered in a low voice.

Although the voice was extremely low, Mrs. Ruo still heard it. She instantly remembered what happened a few days ago, looked up at Cui'er who was standing aside, and asked about Shen Lanze and Ruo Shiyu.

Cui'er refused to speak at first, but under Mrs. Ruo's sharp reprimand, she had no choice but to tell the whole story. After hearing her words, Mrs. Ruo's face changed drastically and she sighed at the same time.

It seems that Shi Yu is destined to have no fate with Lan Ze.

On the other hand, Ruo Chaofeng and others went to the crime scene to search for evidence, but found nothing.

Lu Nanzhi walked out of the alley and walked forward slowly, and soon she heard the cries of vendors, which made her look up quickly, and then ran forward with big strides.

Seeing her strange movements, Ruo Chaofeng was about to step forward to ask, but was stopped by Shen Lanze.

Lu Nanzhi stopped in front of Xuening Hall, closed her eyes and recalled the feeling of that day, she quickly turned her head to look.

Sure enough, things were exactly as she thought. It seemed that the murderer should be the woman of that day. No wonder she didn't see anyone when she chased after her, and she turned out to be hiding in the alley.

Ruo Chaofeng and Shen Lanze followed, before they could ask, she said first, "Master Ruo, can you take me to see the corpse."

"This... I will try my best."

Ruo Chaofeng looked a little embarrassed, if it was normal, he would be fine, but now he needs to avoid suspicion, it may not be so easy to see the corpse, for the sake of his daughter, he has to have the cheek to try.

Hearing that they wanted to see the corpse, Zhou Fu Yin hesitated and said, "Master, it's probably not right."

"Don't worry Zhoufu Yin, I just want to find the murderer quickly and restore my daughter's innocence." Ruo Chaofeng's tone was pleading.

Zhou Fuyin couldn't refuse when he heard his tone, so he had to agree, and when everyone was going to talk about the corpse, Ji Mingcheng suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

I saw that his eyes were bloodshot, and his eyes were fixed on the court, as if he was about to tear him apart.

Ruo Chaofeng was startled by his appearance, subconsciously took a few steps back.

"Lord Ji?" Ruo Chaofeng looked at the haggard man, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Unexpectedly, Ji Mingcheng suddenly rushed towards him, his eyes were full of hatred and madness.

If Chaofeng saw this, he hurriedly dodged, but he couldn't get rid of it no matter what he grabbed his clothes.

"Master Ji, what are you doing, let go, let's talk if we have something to say." Ruo Chaofeng said loudly.

Seeing this, people around immediately came over to help, but Ji Mingcheng didn't pay attention to anyone at all, instead he held on to his clothes even more tightly.

At this time, Shen Lanze grasped Ji Mingcheng's arm, and angrily said, "This is Shuntian Mansion, not a place where Ji Shangshu casually makes trouble!"

Hearing this, Ji Mingcheng slowly let go of his hand, and said in a sinister tone, "Your daughter killed my son, and now you still want to get rid of the crime. Let me tell you, it's a dream!"

"Master Ji, please be careful. My Shi Yu was well-behaved and sensible since she was a child. There is no way she was the murderer of your son. There must be some misunderstanding in this. I will definitely find out and give you an explanation."

If Chaofeng knew that Ji Mingcheng was in a bad mood now, he had just experienced the pain of bereavement, and the murderer was not caught, so it is understandable that he is emotionally unstable now.

"In three days, I will ask the emperor to kill the murderer. I hope you can find favorable evidence before that. Otherwise, your daughter can only go down to accompany my son." Ji Mingcheng hurriedly left after leaving these harsh words.

Ruo Chaofeng didn't expect Ji Mingcheng to do this, and his expression became serious in an instant. In just three days, how would he find evidence to redress his daughter's grievances.

"Let's go and look at the corpse first, maybe we can have some clues." Lu Nanzhi noticed that the atmosphere was a bit dignified, and immediately said.

Zhou Fuyin nodded, and led everyone to the place where the corpse was placed. Lu Nanzhi leaned over to smell it carefully, and a very faint fragrance wafted into her nose, which made her eyes widen instantly.

It's the taste!

When she got up, she accidentally saw a tray not far away, and saw a jade pendant and a sachet on it.

Lu Nanzhi walked over involuntarily, took out the embroidered handkerchief from her bosom and put it in her hand, picked up the sachet on the tray and looked at it carefully. The familiar smell mixed with the aroma of the sachet made her frown.

"Where did you get this sachet?"

Although Zhou Fu Yin didn't know why she would ask such a question, he still replied truthfully: "The sachet and jade pendant were found on Mr. Ji's body."

Lu Nanzhi was more certain about the guess in his heart, but there were some things he hadn't figured out yet.
