Chapter 21 Murder Reappears 2. Who is the real murderer?
Wu Yu was awakened by the sound of rain. He opened his eyes and saw a very disturbing atmosphere in the dim room. Wu Yu turned around and found that Yunyun had not woken up yet. He took out his cell phone and saw that it was already past nine o'clock, so he shook Yunyun who was sleeping soundly.
Yunyun didn't respond at all. Wu Yu thought she was asleep, so he shook her again. This time Yunyun moved.
"Aren't you going to school today?"
"I have finished the portraits of Xinluo and Niao Niao, and I have almost learned to play the piano, so there is no need to go to school anymore." Yunyun said, turned around and looked at Wu Yu with squinted eyes.
Wu Yu was stunned, and after thinking for a while, he said, "In that case, let's go back to Guangzhou."
"But... we still don't know the mystery of Su Wei's death."
"I found out that Su Wei's death was related to the ghost marriage in the old house two years ago, and the girl who married Su Wei was Xinluo and Niao Niao's sister, named Meixin."
Yunyun didn't show any shock on her face. Wu Yu was a little surprised. He didn't seem to have mentioned this to Yunyun.
Wu Yu continued, “It is said that Su Wei was killed by the ghost bride, and the circumstances of his death were the same as Su Wei’s.”
"Really?" Yunyun stood up and suddenly turned around to look at Wu Yu meaningfully, saying, "Then do you believe that they were all killed by the ghost bride?"
"This...how is it possible? Someone must have used the legend of the ghost bride to kill people, but who is it and why did the murderer want to kill them? Moreover, in this gloomy old house, I have never seen any outsiders come in for a long time." Wu Yu said as he got up.
"Yu..." Yunyun looked at him intently.
"how?"
"Don't you think the old man is the most suspicious? In the old house, only this old man has a motive to kill. I think it may be related to the legendary blue and white porcelain."
"Blue and white porcelain?" Wu Yu suddenly recalled that Su Wei had sneaked into the old man's room before for the blue and white porcelain. The old man killed Su Wei because he knew the secret hidden in the blue and white porcelain. He thought this was reasonable.
"I heard that there is a legend and wealth hidden behind the blue and white porcelain, so there is a saying that the old house is haunted."
Wu Yu listened to Yunyun's words and wondered if there was really a huge fortune hidden in the blue and white porcelain. While Wu Yu was thinking, his cell phone rang. He saw that it was an unfamiliar caller. After hesitating for a moment, he answered it.
"Is that Wu Yu?" A woman's voice came from the other end.
"You..." Wu Yu shuddered in his heart.
"I'm from the Wuzhen Police Station. Have you forgotten?"
Wu Yu suddenly realized and asked hurriedly, "Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Please come over now. We have made new progress regarding Su Wei's death."
"Okay." Before Wu Yu finished speaking, the other end hung up.
"What's the matter?" Yunyun looked at Wu Yu puzzledly.
"The police station called and said they had new findings about Su Wei's death and might have found some clues about the murderer."
Yunyun listened and remained silent.
Wu Yu hurried over to open the door, picked up his umbrella and went out without looking back.
Wu Yu hurried to the police station and saw the policewoman and Officer Zhong walking back and forth. They looked up and saw Wu Yu, and quickly pulled him into the room and asked Wu Yu to sit down.
After they sat down, Officer Zhong said slowly, "After our investigation, we found that the deceased was not killed by a ghost bride, but was killed by someone. Judging from the wounds on the deceased, the deceased was killed by a weapon, such as a knife. We also found that the wound on the deceased was not deep, so we concluded that it was a woman's hand. However, according to our investigation, we found that the deceased was most likely killed by someone living in the old house, among whom the old man and Xinluo are the most suspicious."
After hearing this, Wu Yu thought that what she said made sense, but if Xin Luo was the one who killed Su Wei, what was her motive?
"This case is extremely bizarre and brutal. I called you here today to help keep an eye on Xinluo and her grandfather's every move."
Wu Yu nodded. He thought that if Xinluo was really the murderer, then he had always been very affectionate with the murderer. When he thought that the murderer was right next to him, he couldn't help but shudder.
Wu Yu said goodbye to them and walked towards the ancient house holding an umbrella.
