C3 Who Was the Real Murderer

Ye Yunshu touched her stiff face and squeezed out a delicate and lovely smile. She said to Manager Zhou Xuan, "Shopkeeper Chiang, thank you for taking care of me for so many years. You should know better than anyone what kind of person I am. How can I kill people? Don't worry, I have a way to get rid of suspicion. When the truth is out, business will naturally be better. "

Shopkeeper Chiang did not fall for her tricks. He did not recognize money, and it was very difficult for him to speak. "Don't do that! The teahouse had suffered a huge loss. Even if the truth was revealed, it wouldn't make up for the losses they had suffered in the past few days! Ye Yunshu, I don't care if you can solve the problem or not. Even if you solve the case, you still have to return the money. Otherwise, you will be sold. "

Ye Yunshu saw his stubborn look and wanted to cry. She could only admit that she was unlucky,. . . " I will think of a way. Give me a few days. At least let me find the murderer as soon as possible. "

Shopkeeper Chiang sneered. "You think you can find the murderer? He was so weak that he could not even truss a chicken. Eh, that's not right. Why did the government release you? "

Ye Yunshu thought in her heart. Hehe, this person really does not recognize money. Only now did she remember why she was released.

"Of course it's because I'm not the murderer. " Ye Yunshu said confidently, "Zhang County Magistrate gave me a chance to prove my innocence. Shopkeeper Chiang, who was that person just now? Do you know?"

Shopkeeper Chiang snorted and said, "The owner of the Eastern Street Heart-Calming Zither Workshop often comes to the teahouse to drink tea these few days. He is quite interested in your case. " He paused and added, "This is a rich man who likes music. You. . . Try it. "

"Try to use music to convince him to help me solve the case?" Ye Yunshu was surprised. She did not expect Boss Chiang to have such awareness. Just as she wanted to flatter him, she heard him angrily say, "Try it. Can you sell it for a good price?"

Ye Yunshu,. . . ""

As expected, she should not have any expectations for a miser.

The next day, Ye Yunshu made up her mind to go to the Qin Circuit to find Gu Liansheng. She wanted to borrow money from him in case of emergencies. Most of the places on the east street were places where scholars and elegant people liked to gather, like the Qin Workshop, Qingshui Teahouse, and so on. Comparatively quiet, the Calming Heart Zither Workshop stands in the middle of the bookshop and antique shop. There is an additional aura of peace and art, and a painting is hanging at the door - - - The white-clothed young master sits on the ground. A mountain and flowing water, a zither, His posture was elegant and serene, as if he was floating in the air, like a celestial being.

Upon entering the Qin Workshop, he discovered that the Tranquil Heart Qin Workshop did not sell all kinds of ancient zither as it did in the ordinary Qin Workshop. Every Qin had a fixed Qin frame and a Qin Throne, and there were tables, chairs, and teas of different tastes beside them. On the table were all kinds of guqins suitable for music and simple introductions. There were no more than six guqins in the hall. Each guqins seemed to be waiting for a master to sit on the ground, his fingers flying.

Ye Yunshu originally thought that Gu Liansheng, the owner of the guzheng store, was only a good-looking businessman. She did not expect him to be a person with good taste.

The servant quickly came up to greet him. "Miss, do you want to buy a zither?"

"I'm looking for someone. " Ye Yunshu smiled and said, "Is Boss Gu around?"

The servant quickly replied, "It's Miss Ye, right? Boss Gu is waiting for you in the private room upstairs. "

Ye Yunshu was stunned for a moment and followed the servant upstairs. However, she was muttering in her heart. It seemed that Gu Liansheng had expected her to come and look for him. Just now, he had even deliberately left her behind and left. It was not that he did not have ulterior motives, but he had asked her to hurry up and give him the map.

After entering the door, the servant immediately closed the door. He left without saying a word.

The room's environment was unique. Gu Liansheng changed into a white robe and sat by the window. He looked out the window and saw that there were hundreds of colors in the world. He naturally had the bearing of an immortal. Not far away, there was a zither placed on the zither rack. Looking at the luster, it seemed that Gu Liansheng often played the zither.

Before Gu Liansheng could say anything, Ye Yunshu gave up on the idea of borrowing money. She acutely sensed that although this person looked calm and relaxed, he was actually dangerous.

"Boss Gu. " Ye Yunshu walked over and took the initiative to speak, "Boss Gu likes zither?"

"A little. " Gu Liansheng turned his head around with an unsurprised expression, "Miss, have you thought it through?"

Ye Yunshu sat down and did not stand on ceremony with him. "Boss Gu, can I ask -"

"No. " Gu Liansheng refused without thinking and took the initiative to make a decision. "Miss Ye, why don't you tell me everything you didn't tell me yesterday. I will help you analyze it. "

“. . . ”

This person's impatient attitude made Ye Yunshu frown when she heard it. She even planned to hide it. "I have already said what I should have said yesterday. Why does Boss Gu feel that I am hiding something?"

Gu Liansheng finally lifted his head to look at her, but the words he said were not humane. "Miss Ye, I am not in the mood to entertain guests and chat today. If there is nothing else, I will not see you off. "

Ye Yunshu,. . . ""

From the moment she took the initiative to look for her, she had lost the initiative. This person was not someone who would suffer a loss.

Ye Yunshu helplessly glared at him and retracted her gaze before the other party realized it. She spoke very aggrievedly about the details of her investigation after yesterday, "That Boss Song is a wealthy businessman from Beijing. He came for my song because of my reputation. Usually, there will be guests sitting in a private room. That day, the private room was originally booked to the brim. Later. . . That guest checked out of the room. He gave Boss Song a chance to enter the private room. "

Although she had clearly explained the matter of her investigation, she was puzzled. She didn't understand why Gu Liansheng was interested in this matter.

As for the pure interest he spoke of. . . She didn't believe a single word of it.

Gu Liansheng pondered for a moment. "So, you suspect the guest who checked out? Have you checked it out? "

Ye Yunshu shook her head. "I can't. The person who booked the room was a servant and not a local. The waiter in charge of the reception said that the person came and went in a hurry. I think your inference yesterday was right. That person did something beforehand and deliberately lured Boss Song into the trap. Then, he framed me and framed me. "

Gu Liansheng nodded. "Then, did you think of the person you might offend?"

He hit the nail on the head!

Ye Yunshu bit her lower lip and looked at him. She thought for a while and then continued, "Shopkeeper Wang from Yuelai Restaurant suddenly came to the teahouse to cause trouble a few days ago, as if he wanted to find trouble with me. Then he left unhappily, and I was deducted from my pay by Boss Chiang. "

Gu Liansheng raised his eyebrows. "Suddenly cause trouble? There was no reason?"

"I'm just a Qin girl. Other than playing the piano to earn money, I don't go anywhere else. I can be said to be subservient to customers. " Ye Yunshu thought about the bitter life of the original owner and could not help but sigh, "That kind of big boss, how can I offend him?"

At this point, the two of them had already guessed who the murderer was. It went without saying.

Ye Yunshu saw that he did not speak and opened her mouth first. "Boss Gu is so interested in the Musical Assassination Case. Are you going to help me find the murderer now?"

Gu Liansheng curled his lips. "I'm just interested. When did I say I would help you find the murderer?"

"You!" Ye Yunshu widened her eyes. "Are you playing with me?"

"There is no evidence now. You need to find someone first. " Gu Liansheng found her ever-changing expression interesting. He laughed and said, "I can't help you. "

Ye Yunshu was stunned for a moment and recovered. "That servant?"

"Let's go. Seeing that you are so pitiful, I will accompany you on a trip. " Gu Liansheng got up and smiled at her. "Let's go to the Delight Restaurant first. "

Ye Yunshu was still ridiculing him for putting on an act in her heart, but her eyes were suddenly dazzled by this smile. Immediately, the deer's heart pounded and its face unconsciously turned red.

Gu Liansheng stopped in his tracks and suddenly leaned over to look at her face. "Miss, are you not feeling well? Why is your face so red?"

"Is it red? I think it's hot. " Ye Yunshu pinched her face and could not help but take a few steps forward. She left him behind and scolded herself in her heart.

Gu Liansheng followed her a few steps and suddenly said in a serious manner, "It is autumn and the weather is cold. Miss is wearing such thin clothes but she still feels hot. It seems like her heart is a little angry. "

After saying this, he suddenly laughed. He shook his head and walked forward.

Ye Yunshu reacted for a long time before she realized that this person was pretending to be confused and deliberately made fun of her!

When the two of them arrived at the Delight Restaurant, some of the guests recognized Ye Yunshu and immediately started discussing, "Isn't that the one playing the zither in the teahouse, Ye Yunshu?"

"The one who killed the person playing the zither?"

"Why did she release it?"

Shopkeeper Wang was so busy that he felt dizzy. He got angry when he saw Ye Yunshu. "What are you doing here? Murderer, why did the yamen release you? "

Ye Yunshu was inexplicably disgusted by him and frowned, "I don't know when this little girl offended Shopkeeper Wang. Why did she make such a move that you don't like it?"

Shopkeeper Wang glanced at the two of them and then his gaze landed on Gu Liansheng. "Hehe, what's wrong with not wanting to see you? You're just a showgirl, and you're trying to flatter me? What, you even brought someone to help you? "

Gu Liansheng's expression remained unchanged as he swept his gaze across the restaurant. Suddenly, he took a step back and said innocently: "It's a misunderstanding. I am here to eat. "

Ye Yunshu was speechless. "

She took out a human head painting and walked to the counter. She smiled and asked, "Shopkeeper Wang, I have brought a distinguished guest here for you. He is very rich. You can greet him with expensive gifts. " She glanced at the fat sheep, Gu Liansheng, and then pointed at the human head painting. "I just want to ask you something. Do you recognize this person?"

Shopkeeper Wang didn't even look at him and said, "I don't know him. "

Ye Yunshu's smile froze, and she felt even more guilty. "This person. . . "

"This person is a distant brother of mine. He came here to wander for less than half a year. His family members are worried and asked me to help look for him. " Gu Liansheng took a silver ingot and placed it on the table. He greeted a few workers. "Everyone has seen hundreds of customers every day. Have you seen him?"

Sure enough, a waiter came forward to take a look. You asked me and I looked at you. Suddenly, someone said in surprise: "Isn't this Xiao Liu?"

Ye Yunshu was pleasantly surprised. "You know him? Where is he?"

The waiter scratched his head and thought for a while. "I haven't seen him for a long time. Shopkeeper Liu, who used to follow the antique shop, came here once. "

"Shopkeeper Liu?" Ye Yunshu was surprised. She remembered that she did not have much interaction with this elegant and kind Shopkeeper Liu.

At this time, Shopkeeper Wang suddenly looked at the two of them and slapped the waiter. "Is there a need for you to talk so much? Get these two people out of here!"

Ye Yunshu did not expect him to suddenly turn hostile. Gu Liansheng did not ask any more questions and took the initiative to push Ye Yunshu away. Behind the two of them, there was a waiter who looked at them. "Go, go, go. Don't come again. Our shopkeeper has been very angry these few days. "

Ye Yunshu was pushed and staggered. She fell into Gu Liansheng's arms and used her hands to support his chest to stand up. The touch of her hands made her blush again and she quickly pushed him away.

Gu Liansheng reached out his hand halfway and said with a smile that was not a smile, " The girl's hand is cold. Why is her face so hot?"

"Ye Yunshu glared at him. "None of your business! Go. . . To the antique store. "

Gu Liansheng did not comment.

The two of them turned back to the east street and walked into an antique shop with good business at the end of the street. As soon as they entered, they saw Shopkeeper Liu, who was talking to a customer. He was in his fifties. He had a beard and a kind smile in his eyes. He greeted them with a warm smile as soon as he saw them. "Isn't this Miss Yunshu? I haven't heard her play the piano for a long time. I really miss her. Miss, are you alright? "

She looked like a bright middle-aged uncle who could not see any killing power. She turned to Gu Liansheng, who was dressed elegantly, and asked with a smile, "This is Miss's friend?"

Gu Liansheng shook his head. "Shopkeeper Liu, I am looking for a distant relative. He has a square face and a mole under his left eye. "

Shopkeeper Liu's smile did not change. He looked confused. "I have never seen such a person here. . . "

Ye Yunshu looked at Gu Liansheng and suddenly took a step forward and asked, "Shopkeeper Liu, Musical Music Murder Case. . . Are you turning yourself in, or are we going to report to the authorities?"
