Chapter 68 Murder under the Maple Tree 8 Xiaoxia

News came from the hotel that the instructor led the team to find a "starry sky" men's watch in Wang Yingying's room. They also learned from the waiter that Pang Lei, the eldest young master of the Pang family, had been in Wang Yingying's room these two days.

He left in the afternoon when the crime occurred. There was no sign that the room had been disturbed, and there was no sign that Wang Yingying's belongings were missing.

Lin Jinghao and his entourage arrived at the Pang family's villa again. The person who opened the door had been replaced by an elderly man with a smile. He called himself Zhang and was the new housekeeper. There were no two ferocious Tibetan mastiffs as strong as calves at the door, only the

The two stone braves were still squatting there. I don't know if it was because it was autumn, but the huge Pang family villa looked a little cold and lonely.

"Is Mr. Pang Pang at home?" Lin Jinghao asked as he walked inside.

"After the young master came back, he never went out again." The roses in the yard had withered. It seemed that after Pang Feng died, everything that belonged to him no longer existed.

"Wait a moment, I'll call the young master to come down." The housekeeper asked Lin Jinghao and the others to sit down on the sofa in the hall, and ordered the servants to make a cup of tea for each of them.

"This tea..." Lin Jinghao picked it up and took a sip, and a strong and familiar feeling rushed into his heart.

"This tea is brought by the eldest mistress from her hometown. It is said that it is their local specialty. Drinking it can clear your mind and improve your eyesight. The master liked it very much, so he ordered us to use it to entertain guests."

'Young Mistress!' Someone suddenly flashed in front of Lin Jinghao's eyes and disappeared in a flash. It was something he buried deep in his heart and didn't want others to know. 'No, it can't be her.' Lin Jinghao secretly thought in his heart.

chanting silently.

"Director Lin, you are really persistent. You chased me from the restaurant to your home. Is there anything you must ask me?" Pang Lei walked downstairs wearing casual home clothes, with a thin face.

I have regained my strength and seems to be in good spirits.

"Oh, I saw a 'starry sky blue' Patek Philippe watch on Young Master Pang's hand the other day. I would like to borrow it for a look. Isn't it convenient?" Pei Feng was about to speak, but Lin Jinghao stopped him.

"Do you want to see my husband's watch, or do you want to take him back for questioning, Lin Jinghao!" A woman's voice suddenly sounded upstairs, and the three words "Lin Jinghao" were shouted very loudly, as if she had a deep grudge against him.

'generally.

Lin Jinghao was shocked when he heard the sound. He looked up and saw a familiar female figure standing upstairs. Although it had been so many years, it still made his heart beat wildly.

"Xiaoxia." This is a name that is engraved in his heart, a name that makes him deeply guilty and unforgettable.

"We haven't seen each other for so many years, Lin Jinghao, you still haven't changed much?" The woman walked down with gentle steps, her figure like a lotus willow swayed by the wind. The closer she got to Lin Jinghao, the more Lin Jinghao felt his heart beating wildly, and all of this had already been noticed by Gu Qing

All in sight.

"Honey, it turns out that you and Director Lin know each other, so this will be easy." Seeing his wife greeting Lin Jinghao, Pang Lei's nervous expression instantly relaxed.

"Pang Lei, we have reason to believe that you are related to the second murder case. Now we hope that you will go back to assist in the investigation. Please cooperate." Lin Jinghao was not sure how to answer, but Gu Qing suddenly spoke first from beside him.

"This beautiful police officer is

..." Gu Qing's sudden voice caught everyone off guard. Only Xiaoxia seemed to understand what she meant.

"Honey, this is Miss Gu, a police officer from the police station." Pang Lei was much polite to Miss Gu.

"Now that the police are here, do you have any evidence to prove that my husband is related to the second murder case?" Xiaoxia walked down, glanced at Lin Jinghao with her eyes, and then sat on the sofa. This kind of leisurely feeling

, it seems that everything that just happened is just a passing cloud.

"Master Pang Pang, do you know Wang Yingying?" Now Gu Qing was as if she had met a love rival, she was suddenly full of fighting spirit.

Pang Lei glanced at his wife, opened his mouth, but made no sound, as if he was asking for her opinion.

"Husband, just answer the officer's questions without worrying about my feelings." Xiaoxia glanced at the cups of tea on the coffee table. She suddenly picked up a cup and smelled it. Then she elegantly picked up the tea lid and drank.

He took a sip and put it back gently.

This seemingly inadvertent move made everyone stunned, because she was drinking Lin Jinghao's cup of tea.

"Lin Suo, what she drank was your cup." Pei Feng couldn't help but screamed out.

"This police officer, please don't make such a fuss about everything, okay? I used to... and you, Lin, often drink tea from the same cup." Xiaoxia's understatement made Gu Qing's face turn livid with anger. It was obvious that she

It was done on purpose.

"Honey, can you save some face for me in front of others?" Xiaoxia's move made Pang Lei completely feel that he had lost face in front of the housekeeper.

"Master Pang, who is that Wang Yingying? Do you think that now that the police have come to your door, do I, as a wife, still have any dignity?" Xiaoxia's words were like a flattened spring, which suddenly bounced off Pang Lei's words.

He went back, fast and hard.

"By the way, Master Pang, please take out your 'Starry Sky Blue' and show it to us." Lin Jinghao could no longer remain silent. He knew that everything Xiaoxia was doing now was to 'revenge' himself.

"Patek Philippe... I don't know where I dropped it? I'm going to look for it." In fact, when Pang Lei came back, he had already discovered that his watch was missing, but he didn't know that it was Wang Yingying who knew that this watch was worth a lot of money.

Afterwards, he deliberately hid it.

"No need to look any further. We found a 'starry sky blue' watch similar to Pang Pang's in Wang Yingying's room, and the hotel also confirmed that Pang Pang has been with that Wang Yingying for the past two days. How do you explain it?

"Lin Jinghao doesn't want to beat around the bush anymore, he just wants to cut through the mess quickly.

"I...I stayed at her place for two days. What's wrong? Is Wang Yingying dead?" Pang Lei couldn't avoid the question from Lin Jinghao, and he yelled like a trapped animal.

Looking at the housekeeper, he had already sent all the servants away with a wink, and quietly retreated to a far corner. As Pang Lei's wife, Xiaoxia, with an expressionless face, continued to slowly

Drinking Lin Jinghao's tea. It seems that her husband's cheating is no longer something that can excite her.

"Unfortunately, Wang Yingying was killed on the night you left.

Under the maple trees on the mountain facing me." For some reason, seeing Xiaoxia's indifference, Lin Jinghao suddenly felt the urge to beat Pang Lei violently.

"Wang Yingying is dead? She was obviously fine when I left." Pang Lei's surprised expression did not seem to be fake, and he looked at his wife for help again.

"Director Lin, you also said that Wang Yingying died on the mountain behind that night, but my husband has not left the house since he came back in the afternoon until today. Everyone in our house can testify."

Xia finished the tea in Lin Jinghao's cup and put down the cup.

"Lin Jinghao, how is the tea I made? Does it still taste the same as before?" After Xiaoxia finished speaking, she looked at Lin Jinghao and asked with a smile. The calm expression on her face made it feel like she could remain calm even if the sky fell.

.

"Even if Young Master Pang Pang can provide evidence of alibi, we still have the right to ask him to go back and assist in the investigation." Gu Qing was almost mad. What kind of woman is this? Her husband is still standing next to her, and she can actually do it in front of everyone.

Flirting with her 'old lover', even though her husband is not a good person either.

"It's okay, husband. The police have no evidence. They can only detain you for twelve hours at most. Just go with them." Regarding Gu Qing's 'provocation', Xiaoxia still looked indifferent. It seemed that she was not interested in it.

Very familiar with the laws and regulations.

"No, we have already asked what we need to ask. If we need Young Master Pangda's cooperation next time, I hope Young Master Pangda will definitely cooperate with us." Lin Jinghao stretched out his hand to stop Gu Qing. He knew very well that there was no conclusive information at the moment.

In the face of evidence, the most important thing is to remain calm.

"Director Lin is still insightful. We will definitely cooperate with the police more in the future. By the way, if Pang Lei thinks of anything, I will call you as soon as possible. Why don't you leave your phone number?

It’s convenient for me to find you.” Xiaoxia stood up after saying that.

He stretched out his jade arm and handed his mobile phone to Lin Jinghao. The beautiful and slender fingers were painted red like blood, and the slightly raised little finger was bent to the right degree, which was extraordinary.

It can arouse a man's desire for a kiss.

"Lin Suo," Gu Qing almost went crazy when he saw Lin Jinghao taking the phone from Xiaoxia's hand and starting to enter his phone number.

"Excuse me, please contact us if you remember anything." Lin Jinghao handed the phone back to Xiaoxia, turned around and left.

"Lin Suo."

"Let's go back first." Lin Jinghao ignored Gu Qing's objection and walked towards the door.

On the way back to the police station, Lin Jinghao said nothing, Gu Qing stared at him with a look of resentment, and only Pei Feng looked out the window with a bored expression.

"Lin Jinghao, tell me clearly, what is your relationship with Pang Lei's wife?" Gu Qing was really going crazy. She actually started calling him by his name, because the woman just now called him the same name.

Lin Jinghao looked up at Gu Qing, opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but held back. He originally wanted to say that he had nothing to do with Xiaoxia, he was just an old friend, but when he wanted to speak, he couldn't.
