Chapter 76: clue

  Chapter 76 Clues

   Realizing that his reputation for innocence has suddenly become precarious, Wu Chao's face darkens as he thinks about it.

  Looking at the hairpin on the table, the boy fell silent.

  One was not clean, but another one came.

  No, we can't let things go on like this.

  Wu Chao immediately stood up and went back to the room to change clothes and hair.

  He wants to return the things and make it clear to Miss Xu in person.

   And this person just put the hairpin into his arms, and when he was about to go out, he saw the young man walk in and salute, and said: "My son, someone just brought you this over."

  Wu Chao took the overly simple note and expanded it.

  The fonts on it are elegant, and the book-see it at the teahouse.

Although    has no signature, Wu Chao can guess who it is.

  Unexpectedly, Miss Xu opened her mouth and shut her mouth. A person who wanted to persuade someone to talk about it, she actually wrote a good hand behind her back.

  It’s just...was discovered so quickly?

  Wu Chao was a little uneasy.

  It seems that he has to speak first later, if not, wait until the other party opens his mouth to ask for it, I'm afraid he really won't be able to tell.

  "I went out for a while, and when my father and mother asked about it, they said that I would go out for a tour."

  Wu Chao confessed to the young man, and left Feng Qingju in a big stride.

  When he came to the teahouse, he heard from the guy that Xu Mingyi had arrived.

Going straight to the second floor, I saw the girl sitting near the window, relaxing and leaning on the back of the large chair. Squinted his eyes, looking lazy and comfortable.

   Seeing this scene, Wu Chao, who had not stopped all the way, slowed down unconsciously.

   "Master Wu."

  Xu Mingyi turned his head and looked at him, with a slight smile in his eyes, and put away a relaxed posture without a trace.

  Wu Chao suddenly felt that her dignified sitting posture was a bit unpleasant.

  Is it uncomfortable to lean in the chair like just now?

  Sitting down in the opposite position, Wu Chao spoke in front of her and said, “When Miss Xu asked people to pass on me, I was planning to see Miss Xu——”

   "Master Wu is looking for me for something?"

   Xu Mingyi pushed a cup of tea towards him, and asked.

  Wu Chao glanced at the cup of tea, and he was distinguished.

  It seems that Miss Xu didn't look for him for hairpins, otherwise it would be impossible to treat him with such a good temper.

  Hesitated for a moment, Wu Chao took the hairpin out of his arms.

   "Tianmu was making a fool of myself and stole Miss Xu's hairpin. I will return it to Miss Xu on behalf of it."

  Xu Mingyi was stunned.

  The young man’s fingers were slender, and the white jade plum hairpin became more shiny and clean.

  Xu Mingyi reached out and took it, looking carefully.

Wu Chao retracted his hand, picked up the tea cup, and rubbed the wall of the cup twice with the index finger that the girl accidentally touched. Then he brought the tea cup to his lips and took two sips, seeming to take the rest carelessly. Just watch the girl's reaction.

   saw Xu Mingyi frown tightly.

  "This hairpin is not mine."

  Wu Yun was startled, and he blurted out subconsciously: "But I clearly saw you have used--"

  Xu Mingyi seriously recalled.

  She does have a very similar pair, but she doesn’t remember when she used it, but Wu Shisun’s memory is excellent.

   "But this one is indeed not mine." She looked a little dignified and said: "This should belong to one of my cousins."

  She once gave away a pair of hairpins from each of the Cui family sisters. Since they were a gift, she couldn't prey on the old things. That day, she made a special trip to Shangyu Pavilion to select them. Thinking of the Qing cousin's beauty and elegance, she chose this pair of white jade plum hairpins.

  And the character "Qing" is engraved on the hairpin, which is the one in her hand.

  So, this is undoubtedly the thing of Qing cousin!

  And according to the memory of cousin Qing’s maid, when the cousin Qing came out, the pair of hairpins was wearing—

   "Master Wu said, this hairpin was brought back by the Tianmu?" Xu Mingyi asked.

  Wu Chao nodded slightly: "Hmm..."

  Thinking that he had carried the hairpin of a strange woman in his arms all the way, the boy suddenly felt a little unhappy.

  Xu Mingyi asked again: "Where did the third eye come from?"

  Wu Zhao shook his head.

  If he knew the way, he wouldn’t mistake it for Miss Xu.

  It’s just that Miss Xu seems to care very much.

   "But is there any problem?" Wu Chao asked seemingly.

  Xu Mingyi held the hairpin, hesitated, and finally said: "I have a cousin who is missing. This hairpin may be a very important clue."

  She should have been tight-lipped about the disappearance of her cousin, but now the situation is special and she needs Wu Zhao’s help.

   "Missing?" Wu Zhao frowned.

  Xu Mingyi nodded, and said: "This matter is related to the famous festival of his daughter's family, so I didn't publicize it to the outside world. I hope Young Master Wu can keep the secret."

  Wu Chao gave a "um".

  He is not a talkative.

   "In fact, I asked Master Wu to come out today because of this."

  Xu Mingyi told the general story of the incident, including the official trace that Qi Lin had appeared near this teahouse.

   Then, before she could explain her intentions, she heard Wu Zhao call the buddy upstairs and directly confessed: "Call the buddy who answered the question yesterday when the government came to ask."

  Xu Mingyi looked at him and said seriously: "Thank you."

   Frankly speaking, she really likes Wu Shisun’s cheerful and neat temperament.

   Soon a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old came upstairs.

  "When you answered the officer yesterday, did you conceal it?" Wu Chao asked, "Or if there are other suspicious points, please elaborate more."

  The guy looked hesitant.

  He naturally dare not conceal the son in everything, but this girl...

  "Miss Xu is my friend, just say anything."

  Furthermore, since Miss Xu invited him out, she seems to have seen the relationship between this teahouse and him, so she doesn't have to make unnecessary cover-ups.

"Yes."

  The man said: "In order not to cause trouble to the teahouse, the villain did hide something... On that day, the villain heard footsteps in the bamboo forest, and out of caution, he followed."

  They seem to be just ordinary folks, but in fact they were all sent over after selection.

  The guys like him who are going to appear on the bright side, in order not to be noticeable, even if they don’t know martial arts, they are very alert and guarded.

  After all, their main duty is to listen to all kinds of news.

  Although most important news is not easy to hear, gossip and strange things are heard every day.

   On that day, he followed the young man who looked a little sneaky into the bamboo forest, and soon saw a girl who was wearing a power fence covering her face also came over.

  The two people are obviously acquainted, and they have arranged to meet here.

  The business of their teahouse is deserted and remote, and this bamboo forest is even more hidden. It has become the first choice for private parties.

  He thought this was just a private meeting with nothing new, but after listening to the girl’s words did he realize that it was not like this——

   Good morning everyone
