Chapter 142 Actors and detectives arrive at Laikaon

Xie Yunmeng hung up the phone and said to Yun Yeyao: "It's Medical Doctor Mo. He asked us to do three things, but the specific reason was not explained. The first thing is the same as you said just now. We have done it. He will immediately return to the police station to analyze and test the evidence we collected. I think I should receive the call again before tonight."

"The second is to let us hide our identities and enter the house in the forest. This is similar to what you said. I guess the speculation he made is likely to be the same as you. He needs us to pay attention to whether there are family members in the house who have been in contact with Su Bu for the past few years. It seems that Medical Forensic Mo may have obtained new evidence."

"Also, forensic doctor Mo proved your guess that there may be large amounts of property in the forest cabin. The third thing he said was to investigate the hidden property in the house. Peripheral police officers found that Su Bu's grandfather was a late and well-known painter, and his paintings were expensive during his lifetime. And when he was alive, he had sold all his works. Bank information showed that Su Bu's grandfather did not have a penny savings, and he did not have a house in the city, so it is very likely that all the money was hidden in the forest cabin."

"Huh...it seems that I have really made the problem simple. Well, I admit that your speculation is right, and I will listen to you what to do."

"Xiao Meng, it's time for us to visit Su Bu's home." Yun Yeyao said. When he heard Xie Yunmeng speak, he kept squatting by the mud pit and didn't know what he was looking at.

"But, we don't know where the house is yet!"

"I already know, Xiao Meng, look, what is on the soil in the opposite direction of the blood?" Yun Yeyao stood up and pointed to the ground and said.

Xie Yunmeng walked to Yun Yeyao a few steps, squatted down and observed carefully. At first glance, there seemed to be no trace on the ground, but when he turned on the fallen leaves all over the ground, many tilted grass came into his eyes, and it could be seen that it was obviously caused by someone trampling.

Yun Yeyao continued: "These grasses are hidden under the leaves and soil, which means that someone must have walked past here before, but the people who walked past carefully removed all the footprints and covered them with fallen leaves. And this should have been done by an old man.

Indeed, the covered area is very natural, and it is mixed with the fallen leaves and soil on the side. If you don’t look open, it is impossible to find that someone has walked here. Xie Yunmeng glanced at Yun Yeyao with appreciation and said, “Xiaoyao, you are so careful. This shows that a person living here covered his footprints. He may be the one who rescued Su Bu or Ning Ya.”

"Yes, but it may also be the one who wants to kill them! Xiao Meng, if the first attempted murder and found that this person is still alive, what would the murderer do?" Yun Yeyao asked.

"Well... As usual, if the victim knew the true face of the murderer, then he would definitely take advantage of the unpreparedness to attack the victim again. If no one knew the true face of the murderer, then there were two choices. First, look for another opportunity to kill the victim so as not to get any clues by the police. Second, if there was no chance to take action again, the murderer chose to escape directly. If the victim did not see his true face, the police would need a certain amount of time to investigate and confirm the identity of the suspect. The murderer would definitely escape from afar and hope that the police would not find him."

"So assuming the victim knew the true face of the murderer, but he didn't know that he was the murderer, that is, it was an acquaintance who committed the crime, but the victim did not see the face of the acquaintance clearly when he was attacked. Then add one more thing, the murderer could not leave the vicinity of the murder scene or within the police's surveillance range. Xiao Meng, what do you think the murderer would do at this time?"

"...I think the murderer will pretend to be a rescuer and come to rescue the victim in person, so that he can stand on the justice side to confuse the victim and the police's eyes." Xie Yunmeng said.

"Yes, Xiao Meng, so if Su Bu and Ning Yu are really injured in the forest house, then the person who rescued them is the one who deserves our doubts. I can be sure that along the traces under these leaves, we can definitely find the target."

After the two of them determined the direction, they quickly disappeared into the forest in front of the open space. Xie Yunmeng did not bring a rope this time. They left the remaining rope on the open space. The rope ended to the edge of the forest and pointed out the way to the Lekaon Villa for the police.

——

At 10:20 am, around Villa Lekaon

At this time, the lunch time for Ning Yu, Wei Xinrong and his mother-in-law was not over yet. The balcony they were in was facing the river in front of the door, and it was clear at a glance in front. However, the trees on both sides blocked their view towards the left and right directions.

Therefore, they did not see the two people walking out of the forest from the side of the house. These two people were Yun Yeyao and Xie Yunmeng.

Xie Yunmeng glanced at the whole picture of the house, and heard the sound of someone talking not far away from his ears, so he made a gesture of banning the sound to Yun Yeyao behind him, and then took Yun Yeyao's hand and walked back to the back of the house. While he was still not forgetting to observe where the person making the sound was.

"Someone should be talking on the balcony. We have to go around the house first so that we can deal with emergencies later." Xie Yunmeng said to Yun Yeyao in a low voice.

"I know, look, there is a large vegetable field and a firewood house planted behind it." Yun Yeyao pointed to the short wooden house behind the house with his hand. It looked like a small house made of wood, which was probably not much taller than the puppy house of ordinary people.

Xie Yunmeng asked: "How do you know that it is a woodshed? Is it not a dog house?"

"Xiao Meng, you really, don't you see that the small door is filled with chopped wood? It seems that it is used to burn fire every day!"

"Ah! I only saw the appearance of the cottage, but I didn't notice what was inside." Xie Yunmeng suddenly realized that sometimes he felt that he was really lying at first sight, and this was true.

Just as the two were about to approach the vegetable garden, Yun Yeyao turned around accidentally and looked at the direction of the forest, and found that it seemed like there was a vaguely leaning against a person.

"Xiao Meng, is there someone there?"

Because Yun Yeyao had a long-sighted eye, Xie Yunmeng could not see clearly what he saw, so the detective said: "Go and confirm it."

The two changed direction again and walked towards the forest behind the house. Sure enough, after getting close, Xie Yunmeng saw a little girl lying there. The little girl leaned against a thick trunk, wrapped in a thick blanket, with only one head exposed from head to toe.

Xie Yunmeng walked over and looked at her breath and said, "I'm still alive, but my skin on my face was cold and seemed to be frozen, so I was wrapped in a blanket."

"But it's not a solution to keep it here!" Yun Yeyao said; "Xiao Meng, don't you think of a way to take her to a safe place."

"This is difficult. The police are all on the periphery now, and we are about to enter the house. Will she be the one in the house? Or should we take her in with you?"

"Absolutely not. If the person in the house threw her away here, wouldn't it be arousing the suspect's suspicion?"

Yun Yeyao looked up at the back of the house. There were three rooms on the third floor. It seemed that it was the room where the owner lived. There were sunny dolls hanging outside the window nearest to the right (east side) and there were beddings. It should be a room for servants or young girls who did housework.

Looking through the open window, the layout inside is very consistent with the appearance of the female room. Of course, Xie Yunmeng couldn't see clearly. Yun Yeyao turned around and untied a corner of the blanket on the little girl's body. Sure enough, she was wearing an apron and dressed like a little maid.

"Xiao Meng, have you seen the room on the far right of the third floor? I guess it should be the room where the female family in this family lives. Why don't we secretly hide the little maid there?"

"What if someone finds out? We don't know if that room belongs to this little girl!" Xie Yunmeng hesitated a little.

"Oh! Xiao Meng, take a risk! Besides, if this little girl was really thrown into the forest by the murderer, then she suddenly appeared in the room upstairs, which would be enough for the murderer to be frightened. At that time, we enter the house and pretend not to know about this. You should pay attention to protecting the people in the room. If a suspect really appears at a critical moment, it will be convenient for him to set up a trap!"

"You have many ideas! It's exactly the same as that forensic doctor."

"Xiao Meng, you rarely say that I am the same as Xiao Zuo! Then do you really think that Xiao Zuo is my brother?"

"If I could find evidence, I really hope he is your brother." Xie Yunmeng said, in fact, he still has the second half of his sentence, that is: In this way, I will lose one competitor, but Xie Yunmeng couldn't say this sentence.

The little girl is not heavy in weight, and she can even be said to be thin. So Xie Yunmeng didn't spend much effort to carry her on her shoulders.

The question is how to carry people to climb to the third floor. Fortunately, there are trees on both sides of the back of the building, and they all grow taller than the house. Xie Yunmeng is a good at climbing trees, and Yun Yeyao has seen them since he was a child.

He asked Yun Yeyao to stare downstairs at whether anyone suddenly opened the door. When the door was closed, as long as they did not make too loud noises, no one would notice their actions.

Xie Yunmeng held the girl on his shoulder with one hand and quickly climbed up to the big tree on the right side of the house with one hand and feet. His speed was as fast as that of a monkey. Yun Yeyao was also very intoxicated to see his detective so capable and brave.

Until Xie Yunmeng hid the little girl in the room and returned to Yun Yeyao, he had not come to his senses. Xie Yunmeng shook his hand in front of Yun Yeyao and said, "Hey! What are you thinking? Could it be that he didn't make any moves for me just now, right?"

"How is that possible!!" Yun Yeyao quickly denied, accidentally raised the volume a little, and was immediately covered by the detective.

"Shh! Be gentle, okay, the little girl is hidden in the bed by me. I hope no one will enter the room for the time being. Let's go around in front and knock on the door."

After saying that, the two of them walked straight ahead of the house, and there was no need to be so careful at this time. When they walked to the shade of the tree on the left (west side) of the house, Yun Yeyao grabbed the detective and said, "You just go in like this?"

"What's wrong?"

"You should pretend to be a little bit down! How can anyone get lost in the forest be so proud?"

"What should I do?"

"You learn from me! Bend down, hunch your back, unbutton your coat, then apply some soil on your face and clothes, and it is best to stick a few leaves on your hair. Look at me with the expression, and you have to show helplessness and panic, and you have to do it." Yun Yeyao said a lot in one breath.

Xie Yunmeng quickly stopped him: "Okay, okay, I really can't learn your trick. Otherwise, I will dirty my body and follow you, and you knock on the door and act. I will just say nothing."

"Uh, OK! But you have to show a little bit of mental atrophy, do you know?"

"Okay, do it quickly!" After saying that, Xie Yunmeng picked up the dust from the ground and wiped it on his face and body.

A few minutes later, two messy and dusty men stood in front of the door of the Villa Lekaon. One of them stood in front, and the shorter men reached out and knocked on the heavy wooden door of the villa.

It was almost 10:45 am now, and three people on the balcony were cleaning the plate. Wei Xinrong extinguished the fire carbon in the grill and moved the tables and chairs into his room. His mother-in-law and Ning Yu packed the leftovers and put them in a large tray, preparing to bring them downstairs.

At this time, Ning Yu heard the knock on the door on the first floor. He quickly picked up a tray and said to his mother-in-law: "I'll go downstairs first to see who is."

"Can Tengteng come back? Or I'll go. Maybe I locked the door accidentally just now. The little girl didn't have a key, so she knocked on the door. Mr. Ning, if you go to open it, you will be frightened again."

After the mother-in-law said that, she walked downstairs first! The old man's legs were still very neat. Ning Yu's eyes kept following his mother-in-law until he couldn't see it. He frowned and seemed to be thinking about something. Then he looked at the door of the housekeeper's room.

Seeing that the butler didn't notice him, Ning Yu quickly poked his head out and looked down at the balcony. He saw two exhausted men standing outside the gate and breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that he must have been the one who was lost in the forest accidentally.

Ning Yu was worried about Tengteng, afraid that she would fall into the trap again. Although he was calm on the surface when he was having dinner, he was always uneasy. He was looking for an opportunity to get away from Wei Xinrong and his mother-in-law and go outside alone to see Tengteng's situation.
