MTL - Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year-Chapter 514 A younger brother like Erha
It is golden autumn, and the late maples at dusk are illuminated by the brilliant glow.
Looking at it from a distance, it looks like a sea of fire and a bright sun.
In Shen Ningning's princess mansion, she and Mo Lingwei secretly entertained Mrs. Shu.
"Aunt, you can feel free to speak now." Mo Lingwei sat next to Shen Ningning and looked at the sad Mrs. Shu opposite.
Since Mrs. Shu was no longer the princess, Mo Lingwei still respectfully called her aunt because of the friendship in the past.
Not long ago, Mrs. Shu asked someone to bring a message to Mo Lingwei, hoping to meet Shen Ningning in private.
Mrs. Shu asked her confidant to take out an incense box.
“Ning Ning, you and your second brother were investigating the case before and heard that there is a musk-based spice ‘poppy poppy’, which is one of the keys to the case.”
“Help me take a look, is this spice the ‘poppy poppy’ you call it?”
Shen Ningning took a look and smelled it again. It was indeed the familiar smell.
She nodded immediately and saw that most of the box of poppies had been used.
“Mrs. Shu, is this your own?”
Mrs. Shu shook her head and frowned deeper: "It's from Zhirou. I asked people to find it in her room. She didn't like this spice in the past, and she only started using it recently."
Musk is expensive, and the poppy poppies that use musk as the main ingredient are not cheap either.
But Mrs. Shu is quite indulgent and doting on her adopted daughter. As long as there are no extraordinary requirements, Mrs. Shu will satisfy Su Zhirou.
Shen Ningning's eyes were clear and dark: "But just a spice cannot prove that she is related to the case."
"More than that," Mrs. Shu said with deep worry in her eyes: "I secretly interrogated the maid next to her that day, and then I found out that on the day I held a banquet for her to apologize to Vice General Zhang and his wife, the maid heard something in her house. came a man's voice."
Shen Ningning was startled and looked at Mo Lingwei.
“Seriously?”
"The maid dare not lie. I carefully selected the people who were arranged to serve Zhirou. She paid attention twice and found that every time this man came, he could accurately avoid the patrolling guards in the mansion. I was a little worried. , what kind of villain can he be?"
Mo Lingwei's thin eyes were drooping coldly and darkly.
He said: "It would make sense if Su Zhirou was acting as an internal agent and told the other party when to come so that no one would discover him."
Mrs. Shu sighed: "I'm afraid that this is the case. I didn't educate her well and Zhirou became a little vain. I'm just afraid that for some reason, she will do something outrageous and hurt herself and others."
Shen Ningning comforted her: "This has nothing to do with you. You have given her the best, but she has a wrong mind."
"Aunt, you don't need to worry, we will keep an eye on this matter secretly." Mo Lingwei nodded.
A few people discussed for a while.
The maid serving Su Zhirou said that since the case in Qi Mansion, the strange man has not appeared again.
To be on the safe side, Mo Lingwei secretly transferred a group of the prince's personal guards and replaced them with servants from the Su mansion to keep an eye on him.
After returning, Shen Ningning told Xie Mingan what Mrs. Shu had discovered.
At that time, Xie Mingan was pacing back and forth in his study.
One thing he has never been able to figure out is who Mr. Qi is working for, and he wants to achieve his goal even at the expense of his own daughter.
Even though Mr. Qi is now in prison and tortured for several rounds, he still does not relent to tell the truth.
He kept saying that he committed matricide to free his wife and daughter from the torture of an evil mother.
But he had many opportunities to do it, but he had to choose to do it now, and he also used the lily of the valley cream that Qi Xiuwei had prescribed. This shows that he always knew that his daughter was poisoned.
All kinds of mysteries, coupled with the fact that Master Qi just wanted to die quickly, made Xie Mingan smell something wrong.
“You stinky second brother.” Shen Ningning shouted and entered his study.
The girl was almost shocked by the mess in the study.
There are papers all over the floor, with various clues written on them, and the relevant clues are connected together with a cinnabar-red pen.
The wall is posted with the grudges and grudges of the Qi family.
On the other wall, there is a story about Qi Xiuwei being revealed to be the tenth princess of Changliu Kingdom.
Xie Mingan also wrote down his own questions.
【Why is it such a coincidence that my sister fell down and the jade fell on Qi Xiuwei's blood. 】
【Is the child Mrs. Qi gave birth to really a dead baby? Who can prove it? 】
There are also many books he found in order to find some useful knowledge.
For example, what kind of jade can absorb human blood? The entire study room was covered with information he collected.
The only place where he could move was the three inches or so under Xie Mingan's feet. He was pacing back and forth, thinking seriously.
Seeing Shen Ningning coming, Xie Ming'an immediately relaxed the seriousness on his face.
"How many times have I told you, little sister, call me good brother, sweet brother, but don't call me bad brother. I am thinking carefully about your friend's case."
Shen Ningning was afraid of stepping on his clues, so she could only stand at the door.
The girl muttered: "No matter how urgent this matter is, it won't be found out immediately. You didn't eat for a whole day because of this case. Dad told me to leave you alone, but I'm afraid you'll go crazy. Seeing you like this, with so many clues, Aren’t you going to drive yourself crazy?”
She waved her hand: "Brother Stinky, come out and get some air, don't be bored!"
Xie Mingan has his hands behind his hands, his fair face full of confidence.
"The more difficult the case, the more interested I am. I must get to the bottom of it, otherwise I will ruin my reputation."
“Little sister, please go back, I’ll think about it again.”
Shen Ningning could only keep the box of poppies given by Mrs. Shu.
"Why did you send another box?" Xie Mingan picked it up, looked at it, and smelled it.
Shen Ningning spread her hands and said helplessly: "Mrs. Shu found it. The unused box of 'poppies' in Su Zhirou's room may be of some help. Second brother, please check carefully. I'll go watch my brother boxing." ."
The girl skipped away.
Xie Mingan was about to stop her: "Brother, what's the point? Forget it, I'm not busy anymore. I'll go with you to relax first."
But as soon as he finished speaking, he saw keenly that this box of poppies was different from the ones he saw in the spice shop.
It seems to be mixed with some silver powder that is not easy to notice.
Xie Mingan immediately walked to the table, picked up the tools and picked out some for study.
Shen Ningning originally came back after hearing his plea to stay.
Standing at the door, she saw the detective idiot second brother was busy again. The girl shook her head helplessly.
That’s it!
It's better to go find Brother!
After Shen Ningning left, Xie Mingan kept himself locked in the study.
While the door was closed tightly, a few clanking sounds occasionally came from the study.
The boy outside was guarding the door. Hearing the strange noises inside, he was really afraid that their second young master would go crazy trying to solve the case.
Until the sky turns white.
Suddenly a loud laugh came from his study.
“That’s it! That’s it! I understand, I finally understand how they did it!”
The next second, the door of the study room was opened with a bang.
Xie Mingan laughed and grabbed a piece of jade and a spice box. A thin stream of blood flowed from his left hand, winding all the way to his wrist, but he didn't care.
Instead, he ran excitedly to Shen Ningning's yard.
As soon as he walked to the door, he found that his eldest brother Xie Mingxu had been pacing back and forth outside the yard for a long time.
“Brother, what are you doing here?”
Xie Mingxu was dressed in brown and black clothes, with a high ponytail and a calm and cold face. He glanced at his younger brother who was scrawled like Erha.
He frowned slightly: "I'm waiting for my sister to get up and take her outside to have breakfast. She wants to eat Fengpu wontons on the corner of the street, but it's you, why do you look like this?"
Xie Ming'an laughed heartily: "I'm afraid you will be disappointed. When my sister sees me, she won't want you anymore. Brother, let's go eat wontons by ourselves."
Xie Mingxu’s frown deepened and he clenched his fists: “Are you itchy?”
Xie Mingan couldn't explain it to him for a while, so he raised his bleeding hand and rushed into the yard.
“Little sister, wake up quickly, I have some good news for you!”
Shen Ningning heard the noise outside and opened her eyes drowsily.
"Who is making so much noise? Are the magpies I fed before coming here to ask for food again?" The girl rubbed her eyes and sat up.
His black hair fell down like a waterfall, hanging down on her waist, which made her palm-sized face look fair and delicate, showing the pink color of just waking up.
Wan Chun came from outside: "Oh no, princess, the eldest young master beat up the second young master!"
