"Long Tao? Hmph, don't talk about whether the treasure is there, even if there is, I won't take him when I go looking for it." Hearing the man's name, Luo Xiaoer snorted coldly and said disdainfully.
Hearing these words, Song Wuya immediately realized that the reason why they dared to say this was obviously because this Long Tao was not here.
"Oh? That's it! Didn't you keep saying the other day that the treasure of the former crown prince really existed? Why did you change your mind today? Could it be that you did this case to cover up people's eyes and ears?" The person next to him was Courageous, dare to say anything.
When he said this, Luo Xiaoer's face immediately changed, and he said sharply: "Look at what you said! If I, Luo Xiaoer, were really brave enough, would I still be able to drink with you here? I made it more than ten years ago. You have made a fortune, so why wait until today? Besides, where have you heard that if you kill a person, you still have to throw the corpse into your own field in a grandiose way?"
"What? Those corpses were found in your field?" Luo Xiaoer's words made everyone exclaim.
They didn't know much about this case, they just heard it from hearsay and heard some words from others.
Now that Luo Xiaoer threw out such words, they were taken aback.
"Yeah! At that time, I almost peed my pants in fear, so I hurriedly reported to the police. I didn't dare to go to my field to take a look at it until today." Luo Xiaoer couldn't help shivering as he spoke.
Everyone looked at Luo Xiaoer's expression, it didn't look like he was talking nonsense at all, and everyone's expressions changed accordingly.
They were talking nonsense like this, which was of no use at all. Song Wuya saw them gasp in amazement, and immediately interjected: "By the way, what happened to that Long Tao you mentioned? How could you Do you think he went to find the treasure with Xiao Er?"
"That's right!" Song Wuya said, Luo Xiaoer also reacted, and hurriedly followed Song Wuya's words and asked these people: "Why didn't I see Long Tao today? Where did that guy go? "
"Who knows! We wanted to ask you! We thought he was with you!" said the person beside him.
"Isn't it? Did that kid really go to find that treasure?" Luo Xiaoer was also surprised.
When he left his mouth, the people on the side shook their heads: "Who knows! Anyway, we haven't seen him since the day the case happened."
At this moment, Luo Xiaoer remembered what he was going to do here today.He carefully looked at the people around him, and after turning around twice, he said with a strange expression: "Why is Long Tao the only one not here? Where has this guy gone? Could it be that he changed restaurants?"
While talking, four or five people came in at the door.Song Wuya looked up and saw that the person in charge was the chief yamen servant, he turned his head and felt relieved.
Now, among the people who usually gather to drink with Luo Xiaoer, Long Tao is the only one missing.However, this Long Tao did not appear in the tavern on the day of the incident, and these people have not seen him since then.This has to be said to be a strange thing, but today it seems to be the right one, and it really has some clues.
However, it's also a good thing that today is the day when Luo Xiaoer comes every five days, otherwise he wouldn't have seen these people.
Luo Xiaoer turned his head and glanced at Song Wuya, his eyes rolled around, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.He couldn't communicate with Song Wuya about the case at this time, so he could only continue to inquire about Long Tao's affairs.
"That guy really took my words seriously, right?" Luo Xiaoer continued talking about what Bao Zang Yi said that day.
The people next to him laughed when they heard him say this: "I don't think so, so many of us think you're lying. Could it be that he's so stupid to believe you?"
This is absolutely true, Luo Xiaoer had already drunk a lot of wine at that time, although he was not drunk, but who would believe what he said after drinking?
Now we must find this Long Tao as soon as possible, maybe this Long Tao has a great connection with this case.
Luo Xiaoer frowned, and continued to chat with these people until more than an hour later, when everyone was about to leave, there was nothing else to gain.
Watching the people at the table leave one by one, Song Wuya and Luo Xiaoer also walked out of the tavern.
The yamen servants who followed them also returned home.
Luo Xiaoer had no way to go back to the village, so Song Wuya took him to the inn where he was staying.
"Mr. Song, you are really rich." Luo Xiaoer saw that Song Wuya had asked for a good guest room for himself, and immediately felt embarrassed.
Hearing this, Song Wuya shook his head: "It's nothing! It's just a little richer than you."
Song Wuya didn't go back to sleep early, he saw that Luo Xiaoer was in good spirits and didn't look like he was drunk, so he chatted with him about Long Tao.
"I just heard from you that among the people who often drink with you, only this one named Long Tao is not present. Right?" Song Wuya sat down in Luo Xiaoer's room and asked immediately.
Luo Xiaoer nodded: "Yes! As long as this guy is not here, I think he has something to do with this case."
"How do you say you're so sure?" Song Wuya remembered that when he mentioned Long Tao in the tavern, Luo Xiaoer had a look of disdain, as if he looked down on this person.At this moment, when he said this, he almost didn't think about it, and said with resentment on his face.
Luo Xiaoer immediately explained to Song Wuya: "Young Master Song, you don't know. Among us, there are all kinds of goods. Of course, we all belong to the kind of people who don't have much money. And among us Here, the thing that annoys me the most is this Long Tao. He has no money and always likes to play tricks. He often tells us about his ancestors. They are all well-clothed and well-fed, without worries. Now that he is in such a state of desperation, his greatest wish is to restore his family to its former glory."
"So that's it. You mean that after having this treasure, he can come here to fulfill his wish?" Song Wuya understood Luo Xiaoer's meaning, looked at Luo Xiaoer and said.
Luo Xiaoer nodded: "That's natural! Otherwise, why would others not believe it, but he would believe it? Isn't this obvious?"
"It's too early for you to say that." Song Wuya immediately denied Luo Xiaoer's words, "Whether this Long Tao believed your words to find the treasure, there is no way to be sure now. You might as well take the yamen servant with you tomorrow Go to his home to check the situation, maybe this guy is sick and still at home. If he is not at home, check with his family."
"He has no family!" Luo Xiaoer said directly: "He is alone, and he doesn't even have a wife. He is 30 years old, and he is still like a child, talking nonsense all day long. His The home is easy to find, I will take the official to have a look tomorrow."
This Long Tao is still living alone, if he is gone, no one will notice.It is estimated that these people who often drink with him will talk about this matter.
The other people should have no problem judging from the situation. Now only this Long Tao is acting very suspicious. If he disappears, then the problem will be troublesome.
But then again, if this Long Tao was still at home, he might be able to find something very valuable.
Of course, the most important thing is, what are the origins of those eight people disguised as pork sellers, and how could they have anything to do with this Long Tao.
"By the way, Xiaoer." Song Wuya suddenly remembered another matter, and immediately asked Luo Xiaoer: "A few Taoist priests have gone to your village, have you seen them?"
"Taoist? I haven't seen it." Luo Xiaoer frowned, then shook his head: "I stay at home all day, and know that there are Taoist priests in the village, but I haven't seen any of them yet."
"Oh!" Song Wuya nodded, but didn't say anything else. "You go to rest first, there are still things to do tomorrow, and I will go to bed too."
Saying that, Song Wuya walked towards the door, and when he reached the door, he turned around and said: "By the way, come here and close the door from the inside, and use a table to hold the door."
Song Wuya's words turned Luo Xiaoer from astonishment into panic, "Mr. Song, what do you mean by that? Why do you have to hold the door? Is there any problem here?"
Luo Xiaoer was already a frightened little bird, and this kind of frightening thing made him very uneasy.
Song Wuya slapped his forehead and said with a smile: "I forgot to tell you, don't be afraid. It's because there is a lunatic in this inn, who sometimes goes crazy. I'm afraid he will break into your room and hurt you."
"Huh! That's good, that's good." Hearing this, Luo Xiaoer immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Chapter 443 Finding Long Tao
Chapter 443 Looking for Long Tao
The emergence of new clues means that there will be new discoveries in this murder case.However, a single Long Tao couldn't solve anything, so Song Wuya naturally needed other plans.
The murders happened four times before and after, and the investigation has only started from the first one, and the three subsequent murders are still unknown to Song Wuya.If you want to thoroughly understand all the clues of this case, you must investigate one by one from the beginning.
In itself, the case contained a major mystery.It happened one after another, making Song Wuya puzzled.Perhaps, the murderer felt that it was too unsafe, so he chose to kill again and again.But this time, a total of 26 people died. Such a huge number must scare everyone, and no one will appear on this official road.
Of course, from this point of view, Song Wuya began to doubt whether this Long Tao was really related to this case.
A desolate single who stays in the city all day, how many people can he know besides those in the tavern?Can you really make such a case single-handedly?
As the saying goes, people are divided into groups by clusters of like clusters, even with his identity like Long Tao's, he can't make any decent people.It has been more than a month now, and Long Tao hasn't appeared in the tavern. Although it looks strange, it doesn't necessarily make Song Wuya completely believe that Long Tao is the real culprit behind the scenes.
All the belongings of the dead are left behind, is it really just because they want to pass things on to the mountain god?
A person who has been short of property for a long time will not have such a huge appeal, and he will not be tempted by the huge amount of property.
