The Brocaded Tale of The Girl Si

Chapter 211 New suspects

Jiang Si's words immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

Zhen Shicheng couldn't wait to ask: "How does Miss Jiang prove it?"

"Can Master Zhen follow me to the shore of Juxia Lake?" Jiang Si asked.

Zhen Shicheng nodded: "Of course."

He had planned to go to the scene to check carefully after he finished the question.

A group of people returned to the Juxia Lake in a mighty manner.

Jiang Si stretched out his hand and pointed: "Lord Zhen, although the footsteps in this place are messy, one line of footprints is very obvious."

Zhen Shicheng took a closer look, pointed to a line of wide footprints by the lake and asked, "Miss Jiang, is this line of footprints?"

Jiang Si nodded: "Yes, this line of footprints was left by my second cousin. If you don't believe me, you can get the shoes that the second cousin is wearing now for comparison."

Su Qingyi's body is large and his feet are surprisingly wide. Jiang Shi once came to the Hou's residence for a short stay, and accidentally heard the maid complain that the second son's shoes are not good, so he was deeply impressed.

When everyone came to the scene just now, Jiang Sixin knew that trouble was inevitable, and had been secretly searching for clues, and soon found this line of footprints.

"Take and compare the shoes on the feet of Second Young Master Su." Zhen Shicheng instructed his subordinates.

After a while, the subordinate took out a shoe, carefully compared it and said, "Sir, this line of footprints is indeed left by the owner of the shoe."

Jiang Si took a few steps forward and stood at the edge of Juxia Lake: "The last pair of footprints are here, the toes of the shoes are facing the lake, it can be seen that the second cousin is facing the direction of Juxia Lake before falling into the water. My brother was pushed into the water, so the murderer must be standing behind him. Do you think what I said makes sense?"

Zhen Shicheng nodded: "What Miss Jiang said makes sense, but except for Second Young Master Su's footprints, there are many and messy footprints. It is almost impossible to find the murderer's footprints from these footprints."

Zhen Shicheng said, sighing in his heart.

Just like many crime scenes, people's ignorance often destroys many very important clues, which brings great difficulties to cases that were easy to find out, but the sufferers cannot be blamed for these.

Jiang Si stared at the chaotic footprints on the ground, feeling heavy in his heart.

Among these footprints, there must be a line left by the murderer, but unfortunately, as the rescuers and the people watching the fun come, it has long been impossible to distinguish.

Jiang Si sighed softly: "My lord misunderstood, I mentioned footprints, of course I didn't expect to find the murderer by this, but let everyone know where the murderer was standing at that time. If there is a murderer, he should be standing here. Yes, do you agree?"

The crowd nodded.

Jiang Si raised the corner of her skirt: "Second cousin has a big body, so falling into the water will definitely cause a splash, so the murderer's clothes will inevitably get wet a lot."

"So what? The sun is so big, and even if it gets wet after so long, it's already dry." You Shi retorted.

Jiang Si looked at You and said, "It was too early when I returned to the stage. The person who saw me could prove that my clothes were clean. Besides, could it be that my aunt couldn't recognize the fabric of my skirt?"

You Shi took a closer look, his face changed slightly.

The green dress that Jiang Si wears is bright in color and is cut from a precious material called "biying yarn". This kind of material makes summer clothes cool and sweat-free, and is very comfortable. Many ladies and gentlemen like to wear them, but it is not good. Even a few drops of water droplets will make them dizzy, like oil stains. And the ginger-like green dress is clean, without the slightest piebald.

As Jiang Si said, no matter how careful the murderer was, after pushing Su Qingyi into the water, it was impossible for her to not splash at all, and she undoubtedly proved her innocence with a green dress.

Jiang Xi no longer looked at You Shi, who had an ugly face, and slightly pulled the corner of his lips to Zhen Shicheng: "Unfortunately, the little girl can only know her innocence. As for finding out the real murderer, you will have to trouble Master Zhen."

Zhen Shicheng looked at Jiang Si and couldn't hide his admiration: "Miss Jiang did a great job."

Jiang Xi slightly bent her knees and stepped aside.

Jiang Zhan gently pulled Jiang Shi and gave her a thumbs up.

Jiang Si smiled back, and soon withdrew his smile.

Maybe it's because Su Qingyi "died" very soon in her previous life. She actually accepted this incident subconsciously, so when it happened in front of her eyes, her heart was heavy, but it didn't seem like she was born with the kind of difficulty when faced with the death of Yong Changbo and his wife. Restrained despair.

"So, the murderer probably changed his clothes?" You asked suddenly.

Zhen Shicheng nodded: "This possibility cannot be ruled out."

You slowly moved her gaze and finally landed on the second wife, Xu.

Everyone followed You Shi's line of sight, and the faces of the maidservants changed instantly.

They also remembered that the second wife, Mrs. Xu, wore a sapphire blue persimmon pattern engraved silk robe when she attended the birthday banquet.

"Why did my younger brother and sister change clothes?" You stepped forward and stared at Xu with fierce eyes.

When she was listening to the play on the stage earlier, she accidentally caught a glimpse of Mr. Xu leaving the stage in a hurry, and she had doubts in her heart, but she didn't think much about it. Now that I think about it, if Mr. Xu did something against the second son, the time would be exactly right.

Xu Shi gave You Shi an indifferent look: "Do you have to report to Sister-in-law when you change clothes?"

"I don't care how many clothes you usually change, but now that you're dead, you'll be suspicious if you change clothes!" You Shi looked excited, "Master Zhen, she left in the middle of the show, and it's me who counts the time. When the second son was killed, it couldn't be just a coincidence!"

"Don't be impatient, Mrs. Shizi." Zhen Shicheng reassured.

Mrs Xu said lightly: "Sister-in-law, don't throw dirty water on others at will. When I was watching the play, I left the scene because the maid came to report that Bao'er was awake. I went back to give medicine to Bao'er, and the concoction was sprinkled on her clothes. Of course I have to change my clothes. My maid can prove it."

Hearing Xu's mention of Su Qingbao, You's tone became more and more excited: "Don't argue, you must be trying to avenge Brother Bao, and you hurt Yi'er!"

"Shut up!" Master Su shouted, his face gloomy, "Is it ashamed to talk nonsense in front of so many people?"

"I'm not talking nonsense! Master, even if you don't want to make a fool of yourself, you can't let Yi'er die!"

Zhen Shicheng coughed: "Su Shizi, this official wants to hear why Mrs. Shizi said that."

The shock of losing her son and the frustration of calculating Jiang made it difficult for You Shi to control her emotions, and she did not hesitate to tell the story: "Yi'er is mentally weak and likes to play with people, so I asked Bao Ge'er to play hide-and-seek two days ago. Shi accidentally pushed him off the rockery. Brother Bao was injured on the head and was in a coma for a long time. Mrs. Xu must have a grudge against him!"

Hearing You's mention of her son, Xu's eyes were red, and she sneered: "Sister-in-law is wrong, it is precisely because I am heartbroken after Brother Bao's injury, that I will not start with other people's children. As a mother, I can do Nothing like this happens!"

At this time, the young boy's cold voice came: "I found an interesting thing."
