Ye Meng woke up with a splitting headache. She hadn't experienced such a hangover since she graduated from university. She had underestimated the wine yesterday. It was soft and weak in her mouth, but she didn't expect it to have such a strong aftertaste...
Speaking of which…where am I?
Ye Meng looked around confusedly and was startled by Qi Lu, who was sleeping on the table. She suddenly remembered that her university, work, love... everything was far away from her.
Feeling lost for a moment, Ye Meng perked up again. After all, she still had to look forward. She stood up and kicked Qi Lu's butt.
Qi Lu immediately fell to the ground and woke up.
However, when he realized that it was Ye Meng, who was watching from the side, he felt wronged."What is Ye 'er doing? I was the one who carried you back last night."
"I know." Ye Meng crossed her arms and looked down at Qi Lu.
"I didn't do anything inappropriate, I swear to God.”Qi Lu said seriously, afraid that Ye Meng would misunderstand.
"I don't think you would dare. I have a knife in my hand, and I can make you a eunuch at any time.”Ye Meng said proudly.
Qi Lu subconsciously moved back and covered his lower abdomen with his hand.""Then why did you kick me?”
Ye Meng pursed her lips." Of course I'm here to wake you up. Take me to Lord Zhang. I have something to say."”
"Oh." Qi Lu was usually not the kind of person who would suffer losses, but sometimes, when he was with Ye Meng, he would not be able to think straight. He did not even feel wronged when he was bullied.
Perhaps this could be called " one willing to fight, one willing to suffer ".
Ye Meng followed Qi Lu to the yamen early in the morning. Lord Zhang was in the study arranging documents. Seeing Ye Meng, he asked,""But is there any news on the case?"
" Yes," Ye Meng took a deep breath and said," but when I tell you the truth, I hope you will allow Qi Lu and I to personally send Third Young Master Luo back to the Luo family."”
Lord Zhang's hand, which was holding the document, froze in mid-air for a moment before he said,""Nonsense. The case hasn't been closed yet. How can the suspect be released? I was already accommodating to you when you suggested changing his cell to a better one last time. Now that there's no progress in the case, you're getting more and more impudent. Do you think I really don't dare to arrest you?”
Ye Meng frowned slightly. After a moment of silence, she said,""It's only been a day since you promised me. Since you made a promise back then, you should let me do it.”
Lord Zhang put down the document in his hand and looked at Ye Meng coldly. No matter how he looked at her, she was still a young girl. Why did she have such an intimidating aura?
"Alright, this official will indulge you this once. You can clean up whatever mess you make.”Lord Zhang clasped his hands behind his back and turned around." Constable Qi, let her go."”
Qi Lu was still hesitant. He stood outside the prison and asked,""Ye Meng, what are you thinking? Can't you tell me?"
"I'd like to tell you, but do you really want to hear it?”Ye Meng asked coldly without raising her head.
" Yes," Qi Lu nodded." As long as it can solve the case."”
"Alright, accompany my Luo family!”Ye Meng walked into the cell.
The cell that Third Young Master Luo lived in was much cleaner than before. Every afternoon, a few rays of sunlight could still penetrate through. At this moment, he was sitting quietly under the sunlight.
"Third Young Master Luo." Ye Meng's voice was devoid of warmth.
Third Young Master Luo's eyes moved. He turned around and saw that it was Ye Meng."Young Lady is indeed trustworthy. This one thanks Young Lady.”
Ye Meng looked at this gentle young master. He didn't look like someone who would do something crazy!
" I'm here to take Third Young Master home. The case has been investigated and Third Young Master is not guilty..." Before Ye Meng could finish, Third Young Master Luo's eyes flashed with a strange look. He stood up and walked to the railing, his chest heaving up and down as if he had something to say, but he held it back.
"Is that so? Then…I'll have to trouble you.”Third Young Master Luo gradually regained his composure, but his eyes were indecipherable.
Ye Meng saw everything. Third Young Master Luo wanted to protect the murderer.
"You're welcome." Ye Meng revealed a gentle smile.
After that, she sent Third Young Master Luo back to the Luo Residence. As Ye Meng had expected, Third Young Master Luo did not object to Ye Meng going in with her out of gratitude.
To be honest, the Luo Residence was not bad compared to the Yuan Residence that had not been burned down. However, they were both "local enterprises", so why couldn't they develop together?
"Second brother!" Third Young Master Luo saw the man drinking tea in the hall and couldn't help but call out. At the same time, he felt relieved.
Ye Meng looked over and saw that the man was about the same height as the Third Young Master, but slightly stronger. Presumably, the Second Young Master was more suitable for the " arsonist " trait than the Third Young Master!
However, it had been too many days and all the evidence had been destroyed. Even if there was a search warrant, they probably wouldn't be able to find anything. Ye Meng hated the fact that there were no surveillance cameras in this era. At the very least, she should get a fingerprint reader or an ultra-violet lamp!?
He was too unlucky. Not only did he pass through, but his basic equipment was only a white coat and rubber gloves?
Looking at Second Young Master Luo, Ye Meng already had an answer in her heart. What she lacked was evidence.
"Morning Sound?" Second Young Master Luo called out Third Young Master's name, his eyes a little confused.
"Brother, I'm fine." Third Young Master Luo nodded." It was this Miss Ye who helped me.”
The Second Young Master looked at Ye Meng, but he didn't show any gratitude. Instead, he was on guard.
"Thank you, Miss Ye, for running around. It's just that our family is not familiar with Miss Ye. Why is Miss Ye doing this?”Second Young Master Luo asked.
Ye Meng laughed in her heart and took out something wrapped in thin silk from her pocket. She unfolded the thin silk and said,"No reason, it's just an old friend's request.”
The two young masters of the Luo family looked at the things in Ye Meng's hands in horror. The " old friend " she mentioned should be someone who had passed away!
There was a turquoise bracelet on the thin silk in Ye Meng's hand. There were still burn marks on it.
"A day as husband and wife is a hundred days of kindness. That 'old friend' couldn't bear to see her husband suffer.”Ye Meng said with a faint smile.
"Miss Ye, I don't understand what you're saying, but please leave now.”Second Young Master Luo said sternly. Ye Meng did not notice the murderous look on his face.
"Farewell." Ye Meng replied coldly, then she packed up her things and turned to leave. The second young master Luo was about to move when he saw a fair and clean young man with a knife standing at the door. It was the new constable.
" Brother, did we do something wrong? She…she came to me…" Third Young Master Luo knelt on the ground and tugged at his brother's clothes, sobbing.
"Did you find anything?" Qi Lu asked at the tea stall.
"Do you know how to follow?" Ye Meng shook her head and asked.
" I do," Qi Lu said." My lightness skill is good. Who do you want me to follow?"”
"Any suspicious person who comes out of the Luo family after dark.”Ye Meng said. The case would be closed tomorrow, so she had to take a gamble tonight.
At night, Third Young Master Luo tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. He got up and put on his clothes to go out. After seeing that there was no one around, he walked towards the back mountain of the Yuan residence.
When he was halfway up the mountain, he suddenly knelt down and started crying without any warning.
"Why are you crying?" A male voice came from behind, scaring Third Young Master Luo into collapsing to the ground. At midnight, anyone would be horrified by such a scene.
Third Young Master Luo's body trembled as he shouted without daring to turn his head,""Yi 'er, go reincarnate! Don't, don't worry about me anymore…"
"Humph!" The man sneered and grabbed his collar from behind." If that bitch really cared about you, she wouldn't have let you down! To betray the Luo family!"
"Second Brother?" Luo San was so scared that his eyes turned red. Only then did he recognize that the other party was his biological brother.
"Second brother, she came to look for me.”Third Young Master Luo cried.
"Idiot! Look, there's no trace of digging here. It's obvious that the woman is tricking you.”Second Young Master Luo said," It's bullshit if there are ghosts and gods in the world!”
" But the bracelet is in her hands. That's right, brother. I gave it to Yi 'er..." Third Young Master Luo wiped his tears and said aggrievedly.
"Who knows what tricks she used.”Second Young Master Luo said hatefully," We can't keep that woman.”
"Brother, we can't make any more mistakes!" Third Young Master Luo said in horror.
"If you want to know what trick it is, then let me tell you. As for whether I stay or not, that's up to the heavens, not you.”Another female voice sounded in the dark night. It was undoubtedly Ye Meng.
"You followed me?" Second Young Master Luo said angrily in a low voice. This woman knew too much.
"That's right. How do we know who's buried under the ground?”Ye Meng replied calmly, her face under the moonlight looking fierce.
"Let me reconstruct the case." Ye Meng said," Second Young Master, you killed First Young Master Yuan and Third Young Master Luo's wives. Then, you set fire to cover up the truth, climbed over the backyard wall, and left. You knew that your brother would find out that his wife was missing sooner or later. You were afraid that he would look for someone in a big way, so you told him the truth. The strange thing is that your brother didn't blame you. Instead, he wanted to help you take care of your funeral. What a strong brotherhood.”
The evidence was under the ground, and they were caught red-handed. The Luo brothers had nowhere to run.
"What else can we do? Yi 'er, this little slut, had an affair with the Yuan family's eldest young master. She stole the Luo family's business secrets and gave them to the Yuan family. The business was also snatched away by the Yuan family. Ha, in the end, the Yuan family was not a gentleman.”Second Young Master Luo's eyes were already red as he spoke.
Although it was a little unexpected, Ye Meng still said,""But in the end, killing is wrong.”
"You know too much." Second Young Master Luo stood up and walked towards Ye Meng. This time, even Ye Meng could feel his killing intent. He wanted to silence her!
With a loud bang, Second Young Master Luo fell to the ground. It turned out that Qi Lu had walked out of the darkness and blocked Ye Meng's path as fast as he could, knocking out the furious Second Young Master Luo with a punch.
"Not bad! Fast and powerful." Ye Meng patted Qi Lu's shoulder.
"We're clearly investigating a case together. Why do you know more than me?”Qi Lu looked calm on the surface, but he was already overjoyed by Ye Meng's praise. This was the first time he had been praised!
"Their intelligence isn't synchronized, so their information isn't synchronized.”Ye Meng said proudly, then looked at the Third Young Master Luo who was sitting on the ground.
