Chapter 177: Flowery House
"Sir, I am just answering your question. Why are you so fierce?" Qin Siniang shook her handkerchief, her tone full of grievance.
Qu Xinwen was furious. He pursed his lips and looked at Zhan Luochen, "Sixth Prince, how about you come to interrogate him?"
Zhan Luochen looked like he was watching a show, "You're so stupid, you should let her try the case."
He pointed at Jiang Yunxi who was sitting next to him.
"Miss Jiang..." Qu Xinwen looked at Jiang Yunxi with a pleading expression. He really didn't know how to interrogate her.
Jiang Yunxi stood up and walked to Qin Siniang, "Are all the girls in your building using the cream bought from Huang Quan?"
Qin Si Niang met the woman's cold eyes and smiled, "Not really. Some girls use it, and some girls don't."
"So, you bought a lot of that paste in Huangquan." Jiang Yunxi raised his eyebrows. One bottle would probably not be enough for more than a dozen corpses. The other party must have several small bottles.
"Yes, many girls like to use it." Qin Siniang said with a charming smile.
Jiang Yunxi said coldly: "Which girls have that kind of ointment? Write down their names."
Qin Si Niang frowned, "Why? Is it illegal to use that kind of ointment?"
"Recently, more than a dozen female corpses were found in a house in the capital. Their faces were peeled off and their bodies were smeared with the paste you bought to cover up the stench of decaying corpses." Jiang Yunxi said in a deep voice.
"Oh my God, this, how could this happen..." Qin Siniang covered her mouth, her face full of horror, and she shivered uncontrollably.
"Hurry up and write it. If you don't, Hua Manlou will have to close for the time being." Jiang Yunxi deliberately put pressure on her.
"I'll write, I'll write..." Qin Siniang nodded repeatedly. This was a murder case, and there were more than a dozen female corpses. It was too scary. She didn't dare to speak frivolously anymore.
Jiang Yunxi looked at the man in white and asked, "How much of that cream did you buy?"
Song Xiuyuan quickly said, "I only bought one bottle."
"What do you do?" Jiang Yunxi looked at the other person and asked.
"I'm a painter. I usually make money by painting. I made the deal with Huang Quan because I was the only one who painted the dog the most realistically, so they sold me a bottle." Song Xiuyuan said quickly.
Painter?
Jiang Yunxi raised her eyebrows slightly. She remembered Xia Zhi saying that the man Yu Qingwan was dating privately could paint, but she didn't see anything from his face.
"What about you?" She looked at the man in blue.
"I only bought one bottle because I have a bad smell and I was afraid that others would dislike me. I didn't kill anyone. It's not me..." Wen Hong said with an uncomfortable and nervous expression.
He just bought a bottle of ointment, how did it become a murder case?
Jiang Yunxi stared at him. Although his eyes were evasive, there was a light in his brows, and he didn't look like someone who had done something bad. She walked towards Qu Xinwen.
"Master Qu, arrange for someone to go to Huangquan to find Meng Po and tell her that Jiang Yunxi, who took the blood, is looking for her. Ask her to find out the exact amount of paste these five people bought and write it down to me."
"Okay, okay." Qu Xinwen made arrangements quickly, not daring to delay for a moment.
Qin Si Niang had also written down the names by this time. "Miss, I've finished writing them down. These are the names of all the girls in the building who have received the ointment. Here is the full list."
Jiang Yunxi walked over, took it, and looked at it. "Are you sure everything is here?"
"I'm sure, very sure, some girls like scented creams, and some customers like them too, so not all the girls in the building use them," Qin Siniang explained.
She dared not hide anything now.
"When you go back, gather them together and I will interrogate them." Jiang Yunxi said coldly.
"Yes..." Qin Siniang agreed readily.
At this time, several officers came in with two people, a man and a woman. They were not very old, about twenty years old.
Jiang Yunxi interrogated them one by one, and they only bought one bottle because they were afraid that the odor on their bodies would affect others. They only went to trade after they knew that Huangquan had such good stuff for sale.
"Miss Jiang, what's next..." Qu Xinwen looked at her and asked in a low voice.
"Let them go back first." Jiang Yunxi waved his hand.
Qu Xinwen looked at Qin Siniang and the other four and asked them to go back first.
Jiang Yunxi looked at Qu Xinwen and said, "We still need to send someone to secretly monitor these five people to see if they have any unusual behavior, even though they all have valid reasons."
Qu Xinwen smiled and praised: "Miss Jiang is really careful."
"Flatterer." Zhan Luochen teased.
"Sixth Prince, I am speaking the truth. Do you think Miss Jiang is not careful?" Qu Xinwen said subconsciously, and he regretted it after he finished speaking. How could he speak to the prince like this?
Zhan Luochen's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at Jiang Yunxi and said, "I didn't mean that."
Jiang Yunxi didn't mind at all, "Let's go."
"Are you going to Huamanlou to interrogate those girls who used ointments?" Zhan Luochen asked.
"yes."
"I'm going too."
"Whatever." Jiang Yunxi said and walked outside. Now that they had a clue, of course they had to seize the time. As for Zhan Beiyuan, Xia Zhi mentioned a lot of places.
In addition, since the other party intends to have a private date with Yu Qingwan, he will naturally be careful about his whereabouts and will not let others discover his true appearance easily.
On to the street.
It's almost lunch time.
Jiang Yunxi randomly found a roadside stall and invited Luo Chen to have noodles.
"How about I treat you to a restaurant?" Zhan Luochen looked at the stall somewhat reluctantly. Although he was not too particular about food, this was his first time eating at a roadside stall.
"No, eat and get down to business."
"oh."
Zhan Luochen had no choice but to endure it.
When the boss brought two bowls of noodles.
"Sister, Sixth Prince, you are so unkind. Why did you invite my sister to eat noodles from a roadside stall? You are so stingy!" Jiang Jingyan was originally going back to the Duke of Ying's Mansion.
But at a glance, I saw Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Luochen sitting opposite her.
Zhan Luochen was speechless and said aggrievedly, "She treated me to noodles from a roadside stall."
"What! How dare you let my sister treat you to a meal!" Jiang Jingyan rushed to the table and was even more indignant.
Zhan Luochen: "..."
So it's his fault anyway.
Jiang Yunxi asked the boss to bring another bowl of noodles.
When Jiang Jingyan learned that they were going to investigate a case after eating noodles, he immediately became interested and said that he also wanted to go and broaden his horizons, otherwise it would be boring to stay at home and practice martial arts every day.
After the three of them finished their noodles, they went to Huamanlou.
"Hua Manlou is a brothel, how can we go there to investigate a case?" Jiang Jingyan asked in surprise.
"It seems that you know a lot. You know that it is a brothel." Zhan Luochen teased with a smirk on his face.
Jiang Jingyan: “…”
He is innocent and has never been in jail before.
The building is full of flowers.
Even during the day it is bustling with activity.
Jiang Yunxi frowned as she looked at the men and women hugging and flirting with each other. She really didn't like this kind of place. As soon as she came in, she sensed a bad magnetic field.
There is even a very strange aura.
Some people raise little ghosts.
