Chapter 423: The Three Victims

At this time, the people upstairs also came down one after another. The first person to rush to Xie Yunmeng was Wen Yuan. Her face was pale and her clothes were disheveled, with a very frightened expression, and her beautiful eyes were about to pop out of her sockets.

As soon as he ran to the detective, Wen Yuan couldn't wait to ask: "Is it true that Xu Qing said someone was dead?"

Xie Yunmeng nodded with a gloomy face and signaled Wen Yuan to sit next to him first, and then talk about the specific matters when everyone arrived. Wen Yuan had no choice but to sit on the chair closest to Xie Yunmeng. Her eyes were staring at the two women on the sofa. Her body was rather limp than sitting down.

Next, Xu Qing and Cang Lulu arrived. Cang Lulu was also in disheveled clothes and was as scared as Wen Yuan. Soon he sat down obediently, as if he was a prisoner waiting for the criminal police to send him off. Xu Qing grabbed Xie Yunmeng and said breathlessly: "Upstairs, Fu Zhi was not found upstairs, he was not in his room... nor in the warehouse!"

"What?!!" Xie Yunmeng suddenly looked back at Xu Qing and said to him: "You look at everyone first. I'll go upstairs to see. Remember, no one is allowed to go outside the gate again, just wait for me here!!"

"Okay!" Xu Qing answered quickly. He stood beside his girlfriend and watched Xie Yunmeng rush into the stairwell. The horror on his face looked increasingly heavy.

Xie Yunmeng took a few steps to the upper floor. Without saying a word, he kicked open the first door on the left side of the corridor. This was the room of the male owner Fu Zhi. It was indeed empty inside, but Xie Yunmeng noticed the faucet that was opened in the bathroom and the footprints printed on the windowsill.

This shows that the male owner returned to his room after he fell asleep last night and had already washed up and left the room. The faucet in the bathroom may have been turned off when the male owner was washing up. Xie Yunmeng thought it was irrelevant. What mattered was the footprints on the windowsill.

If the male owner returns to his room in the middle of the night, his footprints may only appear at the door. Xie Yunmeng clearly remembers that Fu Zi was wearing slippers. The footprints left on the windowsill are obviously caused by the soles of leather shoes, so it is not ruled out that someone sneaked in while Fu Zi was not in the room.

Bai Yun was very sure that the person who attacked him was the male owner Fu Chi, but in this situation, Xie Yunmeng could not determine the facts based on the family's words. The most important thing is to see what the mistress An Lingxiang said after waking up? If the two people speak in a unified manner, then the suspicion of Fu Chi will increase greatly; if the two people say inconsistently, according to common sense, Xie Yunmeng should be more inclined to An Lingxiang's confession, because An Lingxiang is the person most familiar with Fu Chi in this house.

Xie Yunmeng took a look at the condition in the bathroom. There was no other abnormality except the faucet. When he left, he also rummaged through the drawer in the room, looking for medicines and gauze, but found nothing.

So he returned to the front of the warehouse and kicked open the door. The warehouse was empty, but the rest of the room was exactly the same as last night. The lavender bouquet they made last night was thrown on the ground, and the dust on the big box in the corner should not have been wiped out. There were no footprints of anyone turning in and out of the windowsill.

After confirming these two places, Xie Yunmeng returned to the living room on the first floor. He said to Wen Yuan and Cang Lulu, who were helpless, "Two ladies, please hurry up and find out if there is any gauze and medicine here? Bandage the injured person, especially the hostess, you must take care of it carefully, please!"

"Thank you, don't worry, we will do it." Wen Yuan immediately stood up and promised. She pulled the Cang Lulu and started rummaging in the living room and kitchen.

Xie Yunmeng turned to Xu Qing again and said, "You are here to look at the injured. Never walk away. I will go to the east room to find Fu Zhi and will come back soon."

After saying that, Xie Yunmeng did not choose to leave the west room at the gate, but turned back into the stairwell. He did not want Wen Yuan and Cang Lulu to see Yong Su's corpse outside the gate, so as not to be frightened again.

After coming out of the stairwell window to the outdoors, Xie Yunmeng quickly walked around directly in front of the house. When he was about to open the door of the east house, his eyes flashed through the gap between the two houses. The gap was about as wide as a person's shoulders. The windows of the three rooms on the second floor of the west house were facing here.

Xie Yunmeng saw something wrapped in bed sheets hanging under a window not far away. It looked very big and heavy. The morning wind blew back and forth in the gap, and the thing hung there without even a sign of shaking.

The detective quickly turned sideways into the gap, then stepped on the wall with his feet left and right, and crawled in front of the object wrapped in the sheet within a minute. When he pulled open the corner of the sheet and looked inside, a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes.

Without any hesitation, Xie Yunmeng untied the rope tied to the sheets, stuffed the sheets and the things inside back into the window where they were hanging, and then turned over and entered the room. In this way, he returned to the second floor of the west room.

Entering a place where no one saw it, Xie Yunmeng quickly got up the things in the bed sheet and sent him to another room diagonally opposite. When everything was done, Xie Yunmeng left the room and closed the door, looked at the watch on his wrist. It was almost 7 o'clock in the morning. The detective did not walk away, but stood there and listened silently to the movement in the room.

"Sister Wenyuan, I found the medicine box. Cang Lulu took out a small white box from the kitchen and said excitedly to Wenyuan and Xu Qing. Then the three of them began to treat the wounds of An Lingxiang and Bai Yun on the sofa in a hurry.

Wen Yuan is the most experienced person among them, so she was naturally the leader in this matter. Xu Qing and Cang Lulu became helpers. The first thing they dealt with was the wound on Bai Yun's head. The wound was very deep and blood was still coming out.

Xu Qing carefully raised his girlfriend's upper body, let her lean against him, and held the injured head in his arms with both hands, and said to Wen Yuan: "Sister, stop the bleeding first!"

Wen Yuan was flipping through the things in the medicine box and said, "At present, only Baiyao can be used. If you hold it, don't let her move. Lulu, hurry up and go to the kitchen to pick up a basin of clean water, then take a clean towel, and don't forget to burn a pot of hot water."

"I'll go right away." Canglulu responded to the sound of the destruction kitchen, and immediately the two people in the living room heard the jingling and busy sounds next door.

Wen Yuan continued: "Xiaoqing, before applying medicine, we must clean their wounds first. You can help me untie Xiaoyun's clothes and see if she has any other wounds? When it's Xiangxiang's turn, you can change it with Lulu. Go to the kitchen to boil water and let Lulu come out to help."

"No problem, let's start right away." Xu Qing's voice sounded very anxious. He was afraid that the two women on the sofa would not be able to support death at any time, and his whole body was soaked in cold sweat.

In addition to the fear brought by death, Xu Qing was more regretful. He had already made his own plan and wanted to do something in the lavender villa, but before his actions began, the murderer had already taken action. All this completely confused Xu Qing.

Bai Yun still murmured with the name Fu Zhi in her mouth. She must have attacked her so much, which means she saw the attacker clearly. However, in Xu Qing's consciousness, Fu Zhi was not the one who had something to do with Liu Yunzhao at all. He only wanted to find one person - Wu Xinghan!
