Chapter 104 The Key to the Problem
Several people got off the carriage, and someone immediately came to greet Lu Shouyan: "Master Lu, you are here."
Lu Shouyan asked: "Master Feng, is he here?"
"Here, I'm with the people from the Criminal Department, in the alley over there."
"How did Feng Ye die? Is there any conclusion?"
The man replied: "It is initially concluded that he slipped and fell from the building because of ingesting millet seeds. Whether further investigation is needed depends on whether Mr. Feng is willing to let the Ministry of Punishment take Feng Ye's body back for autopsy."
"Let's go over and have a look."
Lu Shouyan walked in front, and Huang Feng followed behind and observed silently.
On the way just now, Lu Kun told him that Manxiang House is not a brothel, nor a hook-up shop, but a restaurant. However, there are just as many girls. In addition to not spending the night, for some people, it is a better place than a brothel.
It is inconvenient for many people to go in and out of brothels frequently, but there are not many taboos about coming to Manxianglou to eat, find girls to play the piano and dance.
When he arrived at the entrance of the alley, Huang Feng looked inside. The people from the Criminal Department were holding lamps, and the foreman was busy collecting the corpses.
Hearing someone coming, Feng Jie turned around and saw that it was Lu Shouyan. He came over quickly and sighed: "Master Lu, you also know that good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles."
"My condolences." Lu Shouyan asked, "Do you agree to the autopsy?"
Feng Jie nodded: "Well, although Quanzi is incompetent, he is still obedient and sensible. Based on my understanding of him, he will never take the initiative to take chrysanthemum seeds."
Lu Shouyan asked: "Has the cause of the fall been determined?"
Feng Jie looked sad and nodded again: "There were people in Manxiang Building and on the street who saw him falling from the building. When he fell, there was no one else around him."
"That's it..." Lu Shouyan sighed. Since there were witnesses, it was probably a real mistake. The only way to investigate was from the seeds.
Lu Kun pulled Huang Feng back a few steps and asked in a low voice: "Brother Huang, did you find anything?"
Huang Feng shook his head. The corpse had been put away. He could only follow Lu Shouyan and listen to what others said. There was nothing he could do.
Maybe it was really a coincidence. After all, sometimes fathers may not necessarily understand their sons. It is also possible that Feng Ye secretly took cornflower seeds.
Lu Kun thought for a while, then walked to Lu Shouyan and asked, "Dad, can we go upstairs and have a look."
Lu Shouyan glanced at him thoughtfully and took out his badge: "Go, but don't disturb the criminal investigation."
"clear."
Lu Kun got the token and immediately pulled Huang Feng and Lu Yao into Manxiang Tower.
Lu Shouyan stayed outside to comfort Feng Jie, as if he was not prepared to intervene in the case before the Ministry of Punishment officially handed it over to Dali Temple for review.
Entering Manxiang Tower, Lu Kun whispered: "Master Liu, Minister of the Ministry of War, will retire and return to his hometown in less than a year. Master Feng has a good chance to take a further step, but if this happens, it is probably out of the question."
"Don't rush to a conclusion, listen to what they have to say first." When Huang Feng spoke, several people had already come upstairs and called the waiter over.
The waiter nodded and bowed: "You three gentlemen, what are your orders?"
Huang Feng asked: "Who entertained Feng Ye tonight?"
"It's a villain."
"Which table is he eating at?"
The waiter was a little hesitant: "The prisoner has just asked the villain and told him not to talk to anyone about this matter. The three young masters..."
"Now that Manxiang Tower has been sealed, we don't even think about our status if we can come in." Lu Kun said, showing his badge, "Dali Temple is questioning the case."
The waiter was startled: "I don't know, you three gentlemen, please forgive me."
Lu Yao was impatient: "Stop being verbose and tell me quickly."
The waiter pointed out his hand: "That's the one."
Huang Feng looked at the direction of his finger and was a little confused. The alley where Feng Ye fell was on the west side of Manjiang Tower, and the private dining room was on the east side.
Before they could ask any more questions, the waiter, like pouring beans, repeated what he had just said to Xing Quan: "Master Feng came alone tonight. After ordering, he called Yulan into the private room and played for a while. Qu, about two moments later, Magnolia came out.
After that, Mr. Feng was alone in the private room, and no one should have gone in or out during this period.
About half an hour later, in the second half of Xu Shi, Mr. Feng came out of the private room, looking a little shaken.
I thought he had drunk too much and wanted to leave, or go to the hut, so I went over to ask, but Mr. Feng said he wanted to blow some air and asked me to leave him alone.
A customer happened to call me, and when I came out again, I heard someone screaming, saying that someone had fallen. "
"That's all?" Lu Kun asked.
The waiter immediately assured: "That's really all. What I told is the truth. There are so many customers watching."
"Who is Yulan?" Lu Kun asked again.
"Here, over there." The waiter pointed to a woman in light green clothes next to Xing Ba. This woman had a delicate and elegant appearance, and faced Xing Ba's cross-examination calmly.
Seeing Lu Yao thinking about going there, Lu Kun reminded him: "Don't forget what dad said. Don't be in a hurry. Let's wait until the interrogation is over before we go over."
"It's too slow." Lu Yao hummed. It had been a while since they arrived in a carriage. After such a long time, the criminal investigation had not been completed.
"It's not surprising. After all, she is the only person who has been alone with Feng Ye in the private room tonight. She is the most suspicious. How could the criminal arrest let her go so easily." Huang Feng said, suddenly turning to ask the waiter, "By the way, Feng Yejin Did you say anything late, like who are you waiting for? "
"No."
"Then what dishes did he order? How much wine did he order?"
The waiter recalled carefully for a moment and said, "Young master Feng did order a lot of dishes, which should not be eaten by one person."
Lu Yao was surprised: "Is Feng Ye really waiting for someone?"
Lu Kun shook his head: "Not necessarily. Those who can come to eat here are either rich or expensive. It is common to order more and only have a few bites of a dish."
"Such a waste!" Lu Yao was a little angry. He was still young. As a monk, he spent most of his time cultivating and rarely mingled with the public circles in the capital. Now he had begun to live without food, so he didn't know much about these things.
The waiter nodded silently beside him, but did not dare to agree. He could not say what the other young masters in front of him said.
"Master Feng's leftover dishes have been confiscated for drug testing. If the three young masters want to know what they ordered, I will go downstairs and get the account to check for you. There are too many guests tonight and I really can't remember. ”
Lu Kun nodded: "Go ahead and write it down on a piece of paper and bring it to me later."
"The villain understands."
After the waiter left, Huang Feng saw Lu Kun looking at him and said, "On the surface, the most suspicious ones are the waiter, Yulan, and the cook of Manxianglou who have been in contact with Feng Ye.
If it was really related to them, the most they could do was poison him or trick Feng Ye into taking the seeds.
But when Feng Ye fell, they were not nearby, so how did they ensure that Feng Ye would slip and fall.
I haven't seen the cook before, but neither this waiter nor Yu Lan over there have any cultivation level. "
Lu Kun thought about it for a while and said, "Brother Huang means that as long as we can figure out how Feng Ye fell, many problems will be solved?"
Huang Feng nodded: "That's what I thought."
When Lu Yao heard this, he hurriedly said: "Then what are you waiting for? Go to the west terrace and have a look."
