Four days later.

early morning.

"Young Master Xue Shao Mansion is back!"

Zhou Ze said oh, Xue Ping had already followed Sanbao, his face was exhausted and his eyes were covered in blood, but he was in good spirits and could not hide his excitement.

"I am fortunate to be unfair to my fate, so I will come to report to the Ming Mansion!"

Zhou Ze quickly stood up and helped Xue Ping up.

"Thank you for your hard work in Xue Shaofu. Let's sit down and drink a cup of tea first. Let's talk about everything slowly. Will this trip go smoothly?"

Xue Ping was not polite either. When he came back at this time, he naturally came back in the middle of the night. He picked up the teacup and didn't care whether it was hot or not, so he raised his head and drank it all.

"Fortunately, I have not been humiliated and have been ruined for a while. The maid from the Zhong family finally found her. My subordinate asked an old lady to wash her up and bring her over to see the Ming Mansion later."

Zhou Ze nodded. It was obvious that this maid was so dirty that she could not see anyone in Xue Ping's eyes.

"Are you okay?"

Xue Ping sighed and sat beside Zhou Ze.

"That family bought her as a livestock. She had to get up to bake cakes at the third day. During the day, the mother-in-law took it out to sell it. She also needed to wash and supplement the household.

At night, the silly son was inhumane, either beating or scolding or humiliating. In just a few months, the maid looked like an old woman."

After Xue Ping finished speaking, the sound of the Three Treasures came from outside the door.

"Young Master, the witness has arrived."

Xue Ping glanced at Zhou Ze and quickly got up to open the door. A woman in coarse cloth was hunched over and walked in with her body being helped, obviously having a lame leg.

The clothes on my body were a little wide and my hair was combed, but there was a fist-sized piece of hair on the left temporal part, and the face was blue and purple, and the neck and hands were exposed.

Even, there is a circle of teeth marks on the wrist.

This is not that kind of fun. The rows of tooth marks are all biting through the flesh and the wrists are also swelling.

Seeing Zhou Ze, the woman was already trembling and knelt directly in front of Zhou Ze.

"The civilian woman pays homage to the Ming Mansion. Thank you for your help in your life!"

Zhou Ze glanced at Xue Ping, but Xue Ping had nothing to hide.

"Her husband's family did not agree to give money, so it was useless to find the people from Jiang'an County. When we discussed at the door, we happened to catch her husband going crazy and took scissors to stab her to death. We rushed in after hearing the screams. We probably had already become a corpse one step later."

The woman kowtowed to Xue Ping, then looked at Zhou Ze, and spoke, and the missing teeth made people shocked her.

"Mingfu wants to know what he wants, just ask the private women directly, and he will definitely tell everything."

Zhou Ze nodded, raised his hand slightly, and Xue Ping helped the person up.

"How many years have you served Miss Zhong Yishan?"

"I was sold to the Zhong family at the age of seven, and I was by my side and served the lady for eighteen years."

"Can you have a name?"

"I was named April in the Zhong family, and the real name of the civilian woman is Wang Zhaodi."

"What's her personality?"

"The only daughter of the Zhong family has been loved and grown up since childhood. When he was a child, one of his father Zhong's concubines accidentally bumped into her. She was also found a reason and was sold out with a silence.

The lady is domineering, irritable, and irritable, but sometimes she suddenly becomes gentle and treats me very well. She doesn't let me call her Miss, but she wants to call her Master.

From childhood to adulthood, she has given herself five names. I can stay with her because I can tell the difference between these people."

Zhou Ze's pause, multiple personalities?

This description is too much like multiple personality.

Such people are generally regarded as madmen. After all, they feel that each personality exists independently, and they are tired of the aesthetics and cognition of other personality, and are sometimes extremely cruel.

But how did such a person get together with the two brothers of the Zhang family?

"Can you describe what Zhong Yishan looks like? After all, I have never seen her before, but he can't explain it clearly when Xue Ping said."

Wang Zhaodi paused and looked up at Zhou Ze.

"The Zhong family only praises the lady. In order to please her, the neighbors and relatives will naturally not say anything against each other. In fact, the lady looks average and is very thin, and looks like a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old."

"Zhong Yishan, have you ever loved someone? I am not referring to Liu Xiangzhong. It's all before and after marriage. Think about it carefully, who are there people who often go to and from your Zhong family to cross the courtyard?"

Xue Ping seemed to want to speak, but was stopped by Zhou Ze's gaze. He probably felt that the Zhang family had nothing to do with this matter at this moment.

It wasn't that he took over the Zhang family's benefits, but that the two families were not in harmony at all.

Wang Zhaodi seemed to hesitate, but Zhou Ze did not urge him.

Wang Zhaodi would not have lived to this day, otherwise she could have guessed something, but she did not dare to say it. After all, if she said it, the fig leaf of the Zhong family would be gone, and many things would be known to everyone. Once the Zhong family turned over, she would have no way to survive.

Wang Zhaodi gritted her teeth and raised her eyes again, no longer having the previous hesitation.

"There are not many people who know about the names of the people, including the doctor Cui Xian, the Zhong family accountant Li Xianfeng, the Zhong family purchasing Sun Youliang, the Zhang Juren family Zhang Shujing, the Zhang Shuxiang brothers... I can't name the rest."

In one breath, Wang Zhaodi talked about no less than fifteen people. Not to mention Xue Ping, even Zhou Ze looked surprised.

Suddenly, I felt sorry for Liu Xiangzhong in the cell. This is not ordinary green, this is the green grassland!

Xue Ping was already stunned and opened his mouth wide to look at Zhou Ze.

"I often come to the Zhong family after marriage? Have a private meeting with Zhong Yishan?"

Wang Zhaodi nodded.

"I don't know if they have the key to the West Crossing Hospital or the lady brought it in personally, but I usually ask me to prepare breakfast and add more amounts when I get up in the morning."

"Does Liu Xiangzhong know?"

Wang Zhaodi shook her head and said without hesitation:

"My son-in-law is kind-hearted and never speaks loudly to us. Besides, they never meet every day. My son-in-law is just busy with private schools. The two are even more distant than the guests. In seven years, they eat alone less than ten times."

"In the same courtyard? Sleep alone?"

Wang Zhaodi nodded.

"Each person sleeps alone, which is considered to be the same courtyard. Because there is a pond in the middle of the courtyard, the house is built around the landscape. It seems not far from the lady's room to the son-in-law's room, but it takes a cup of tea to go around."

Zhou Ze glanced at Xue Ping, Xue Ping nodded and expanded a picture. This was the pictured Zhong Family West Crossing Courtyard, and the marked on it was clearly marked.

Rich people really know how to enjoy it. The layout of the yard is quite complicated. The purpose of each room and who will live in it are written very clearly.

The pond in the middle of the yard is also marked with ancient trees, and there is a line among them. From behind Zhong Yishan's small building and in the middle of the rockery, Zhou Ze paused.

"What's this?"

Xue Ping took a look.

"When the Zhong family sold this land, it was said that this ginkgo tree was found, but half of it was struck by lightning and was incomplete. It was just a trunk that was preserved horizontally, which looked a bit like a crooked tree.

It’s been a tree that has been killed for hundreds of years. It’s a pity that the Zhong family found a Taoist priest who looked at Feng Shui and left the tree. Then they used their daughter’s courtyard to surround the place, which is a place where talents are gathered."

Zhou Ze narrowed his eyes.

"Crooked Neck Tree? How high is it extending outside the wall?"

Wang Zhaodi gestured on her chest.

"Just come to me, I can reach it, but the locals in Hejiang feel that ancient trees that have been around for five hundred years have all their spirituality, and no one touches the branches and leaves."

Zhou Ze nodded, picked up the tea show, and stopped asking about the tree.

"Tell me what did you see on July 25th?"

Wang Zhaodi was not surprised at all. After all, she could still guess what she found for.

"The civilian woman was forced to lie and had no choice but to testify at the county government. In fact, she did not see her son-in-law come back in the early morning of July 25th."

Zhou Ze tapped the desktop with his fingers, and he was in no hurry.

"Is there any movement in your lady's room?"

Wang Zhaodi nodded.

"On the night of July 24th, the lady asked me to go to rest early. I didn't have to be on the night, so I knew that someone would come, but I didn't know who would come, so I just asked me to send bath water.

At night, I woke up once and seemed to hear the sound of closing the doors and windows. I got up and looked at the candlelight on the lady's floor. I didn't see anyone. I went back to the west wing and continued to sleep.

Before dawn at the end of the Yin hour, a movement came from the building, and I was so depressed that I couldn't hear it clearly. I opened the door and looked upstairs, but I didn't notice any difference. The lady had advised me the night before, and I didn't let me see any movement when I heard it.

I thought about it and went back to sleep. I called breakfast early in the morning and placed it on the first floor. I whispered a few times but didn't hear the sound, because July 25th is the death day of the young lady's grandfather, and I have to go with my wife to add lamp oil.

I went upstairs with a thorn in the door, and no one answered. When I pushed the door, I saw the lady with no head on the bed, and the entire curtain and bedding were covered with blood.

There were bloody footprints on the ground, extending to the edge of the bathtub. The water inside the bucket was bright red. The villain left after killing the lady and still bathing here."

Zhou Ze nodded. Seeing such a tragic scene, he was calm enough not to be scared to death.

"I have learned a little about the case and will interrogate the case later. Are you willing to testify in court and sign and tell me what you said just now?"
