Eunuch Shi (7)
In order to prove Qiu Laosan's innocence, Zhao Xiaomei handed over the bloody stone. It turned out that the stone was hidden in the kitchen. No wonder other people couldn't find it. No one expected that Zhao Xiaomei would hide the stone in the kitchen. After getting the stone, Luo Yi let Qiu Laosan go and let Zhao Xiaomei go back to rest. Li Wenyu was very puzzled by Luo Yi's decision.
"You let them go like this, aren't you afraid that they will run away?"
"If they really killed someone, they wouldn't hand over the stone." Luo Yi looked at the stone in her pocket. It was obvious that the blood stains on it were still there before Zhao Xiaomei had time to do anything.
Kang Lele looked at Luo Yi and asked in a low voice: "Master, are you sure now that they didn't kill anyone?"
"No, but don't worry, at least they can't escape. If they really have this motive, it won't be too late to announce it then."
"You mean to hide it from them now?"
"Yes." Luo Yi nodded. Although she also felt that what Zhao Xiaomei and Qiu Laosan did was not very moral, but after all, they had not harmed anyone yet, so this could not convict them. If they really had other ideas and wanted to move Lan Guoqiang and Luo Yi will tell them when the time comes. This pair of wild mandarin ducks will not live long. Such a small village has a combined population of more than a thousand people. Don't say that Lan Guoqiang is not affected, even if it just lets the villagers know about Mr. Qiu. If San committed adultery with Zhao Xiaomei, they would both be drowned in the villagers' saliva. But in this way, it seems that the suspicions of Zhao Xiaomei and Qiu Laosan are reduced. Even the only evidence found is useless. The only suspicious thing is the black shadow Qiu Laosan saw. Who could that black shadow be? ? How could he kill Lan Wei for no reason? After much deliberation, I had no choice but to re-investigate, starting with Lan Guoqiang's enemies.
The next day, Luo Yi got up early. When she came to the yard, Lan Guoqiang was squatting in the yard smoking, and Luo Yi walked over gently.
"Mr. Lan."
"Miss Luo, are you up?" Lan Guoqiang saw Luo Yi and stood up. The expression on his face was very vicissitudes of life, as if changes in some things would really make people age instantly.
Luo Yi smiled and nodded, looked at the pomegranate tree in the yard, and asked with a smile: "Did you plant it?"
"Yeah." Lan Guoqiang nodded and sighed.
Luo Yi walked up to Lan Guoqiang, thought for a while, and asked softly: "Mr. Lan, I want to know if you have any enemies in Taoyuan Village?"
"Enemy?" Lan Guoqiang looked at Luo Yi in surprise.
"Um."
"I can't think of it at the moment..." When it comes to enemies, Lan Guoqiang has no clue. Although business people will offend some people, he has no interaction with the people in the village, at least not in business, so it is difficult to think of them at the moment. stand up.
After hearing this, Luo Yi reminded: "Is there anyone who has a problem with you?"
"Let me think about it..." Lan Guoqiang knew that Luo Yi's question must be related to his son's death. After thinking for a long time, he finally remembered something. "Landalong"
"Lan Dalong?"
"Um."
"Is he a relative of yours?"
Lan Guoqiang sighed, looked at Luo Yi and replied: "In this village, we are either distant relatives or close neighbors. Lan Dalong is not related to me at all."
"Then what does he have to do with you?"
"This..." Lan Guoqiang couldn't say anything. At this time, Zhao Xiaomei came out with a bowl of noodles and answered loudly: "It's his love rival."
"Love rival?" Luo Yi was a little confused, how many men had this little sister Zhao seduced? There is Qiu Laosan, and there is also Lan Dalong? Zhao Xiaomei blushed, as if she could see what Luo Yi was thinking. She was afraid that Luo Yi would think wrong, so she quickly explained: "Lan Dalong and Guo Qiang grew up together, and they both fell in love with Xiaowei's mother, but later, Xiaowei My mother chose Guoqiang, and because of this, the two of them had a very unpleasant quarrel, and they have not interacted with each other for so many years."
Lan Guoqiang nodded silently. It had been a long time since this incident. Lan Guoqiang himself could hardly remember it. If Luo Yi hadn't asked this, he wouldn't have been able to remember Lan Dalong.
Luo Yi was a little surprised when she heard this: "Are you saying that Lan Dalong likes Xiaowei's mother?"
"Yes, that may be the reason why he has never been married." Zhao Xiaomei rushed to answer. Women are always more talkative than men, especially women in the village. When they have nothing to do, they like to gossip with neighbor women, so Zhao Xiaomei It turned out that Lan Dalong was not married yet, but Zhao Xiaomei had not mentioned this matter to Lan Guoqiang. After all, so many years had passed, and there was no need to mention these things again. The man liked Lan Guoqiang's ex-wife, and It was not Zhao Xiaomei herself, so it was impossible for Zhao Xiaomei to bring this matter to Lan Guoqiang.
Luo Yi nodded and looked at Zhao Xiaomei: "Then do you know where this Lan Dalong is?"
"In the village, the small house in the east is Lan Dalong's home." Zhao Xiaomei handed the face to Lan Guoqiang's hand.
"What does Lan Dalong do?"
"He? I haven't heard of what kind of job he does, but he has several acres of bamboo at home, which he can sell for some money. Anyway, even if he doesn't work, his life will not be a problem."
Before Luo Yi came here, she heard that some villagers in Taoyuan Village grew some bamboo at home and sold the crops to people in the flooring business. They were living a good life, so she hurriedly asked: "Then what does he usually do?" at home?"
"Not here." Zhao Xiaomei was not sure.
"Then where can I find him?"
"...Wumei Poetry Club." Lan Guoqiang threw out a sentence.
Seeing Lan Guoqiang frowning, Luo Yi asked softly: "Where is the Wumei Poetry Society?"
"It's a poetry club in our village. People who like to write and compose go there on weekdays."
"Is Lan Dalong a member of the Wumei Poetry Club?"
"Yeah." Lan Guoqiang nodded and started eating the noodles.
At this time, Kang Lele looked at everything below from the second floor, heard the conversation between Luo Yi and Lan Guoqiang, and asked in a low voice: "Li Wenyu, do you think my master is going to find that Lan Dalong next?"
"It's possible..." Li Wenyu yawned. He was woken up by Wangchuan before he woke up. What surprised Li Wenyu was that after he got up, Wangchuan disappeared and he didn't know where he went.
Kang Lele looked down and saw the top of the person's head. Unexpectedly, Luo Yi raised his head and looked at Kang Lele. Luo Yi shouted loudly: "Lele, come down."
"Oh." Kang Lele heard the master's call, and there was no reason not to be positive. He ran downstairs with a bang, followed by the adopted little black cat. The little black cat's steps were very light, as if he was walking. The steps are normal, and now wherever Kang Lele goes, the little black cat follows.
By the time Li Wenyu followed him and ran downstairs, Kang Lele had already held Luo Yi's hand and walked out of the courtyard. The three of them walked side by side towards the village square. Along the way, many people looked at Luo Yi and the others. , Luo Yi can understand this situation. Generally, in this kind of village, there are few outsiders, so it is not surprising that it attracts the attention of others. As they walked, they came to the square. There were three big trees in the square. Luo Yi only recognized one of them as cypress. Just when she was about to test Kang Lele, Kang Lele screamed in surprise.
"ah…"
Luo Yi was startled, looked at the nervous Kang Lele and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Master, I found a problem..." Kang Lele looked around sheepishly and answered in a low voice.
"what is the problem?"
"I saw Xiaoguai..." Kang Lele couldn't see the little black cat originally because she didn't have yin and yang eyes. I don't know why, but when she turned around just now, she found that the little black cat was following her, so she was also Startled.
Li Wenyu muttered: "What's so strange, I can see it too."
"What do you know? I couldn't see it before, but now I suddenly see it. I want to make sure it has revealed itself?" Kang Lele looked at the little black cat curiously.
Luo Yi chuckled and replied in a low voice: "I can't see, what do you think?"
"I said?" Kang Lele pointed at herself. After thinking about it, she knew that the little black cat must not have appeared, but why could she see it? "Do I have yin and yang eyes? Master?"
Such a question made Luo Yi dumbfounded, and she replied softly: "It's not that you have the yin and yang eyes. You are its master. After you have spiritual communication with it, of course you can see it. This is not surprising."
"...So that's it...it scared me to death." Kang Lele patted his chest and was about to squat down to tease the little black cat, but was pulled back by Luo Yi. Luo Yi said seriously: "Remind you, don't If you do strange things in public, don't forget that others can't see you."
"..." Kang Lele took back her outstretched hand.
At this time, an aunt carrying a basket glanced at Luo Yi and the others with a smile on her face. Li Wenyu thought that the aunt was going to say hello to them, but who knew that the aunt turned her head and looked at the person opposite who was wearing a gray jacket. middle-aged man.
"Dalong, have you eaten?"
"Already eaten." The man in the gray jacket looked over and smiled...
Luo Yi had been staring at the man since she heard her aunt shouting the name "Dalong". She didn't know if it was such a coincidence that she met Lan Dalong, so she grabbed her aunt.
"Auntie, I want to ask, is that person just now Lan Dalong?"
"Yes." The aunt looked at Luo Yi and Li Wenyu and Kang Lele behind Luo Yi with some surprise, and asked warily: "Who are you?"
"Oh...we are guests of Lan Guoqiang's family." Luo Yi smiled.
After hearing this, the aunt laughed: "It turns out that the guests from Guoqiang's family are here..." After saying that, the aunt frowned and continued: "Guoqiang's family is quite unlucky, why did it happen to such an unfortunate thing? I have to say that Xiaowei's kid is quite well-behaved. I don't know why he left so early..."
Luo Yi saw that the aunt seemed to be unprepared, so she smiled and asked, "Auntie, do you know Xiaowei too?"
"Of course, they are all from the same village. I not only know him, but I also watched him grow up. When he was a child, he was the father-in-law Shi that my mother and I took him to worship." The aunt looked at Luo Yi and replied.
