Chapter 51: Solving the Case 6
"Is your modus operandi the same as that of Blue Grass?" When heading to Mu Liunian's room, Mu Liunian leaned close to Fang Langxing and whispered.
Fang Langxing glanced at him and said nothing, but Mu Liunian understood.
Mu Liunian's room and the rooms on the first floor are decorated in the same way, except that his room has a lot more recipes and related books.
"Did you find out that the old butler is sick?" Mu Tianya looked at Mu Liunian in shock, holding the investigation report he found in the cookbook.
"I asked someone to investigate after I overheard the conversation between Mr. Jia and Lang'er." Mu Liunian replied calmly.
"But what does this have to do with you?" Mu Tianya continued to ask.
"Because I am a homeless child raised by an old housekeeper." Mu Liunian looked at the other person and said without hiding anything: "After my father died unexpectedly, my mother left, and I lived with my grandmother, but my grandmother also died when I was nine years old. I was taken home by the old housekeeper when I was picking up trash on the street."
As he spoke, Mu Liunian took Fang Langxing's hand and said, "We grew up together. I like to learn cooking, so the old housekeeper took the trouble to send me to the best cooking school, and then asked the chef in the mansion to be my master."
"But how come we didn't know that you had such a relationship?" Yun Zhao looked at the two of them puzzled. They didn't communicate much in the mansion, and it didn't look like they were people who grew up together.
"If Mr. Jia knew about my relationship with the old butler, he would definitely fire me, so the old butler told me not to get too close to Lang'er when I'm in the mansion." Mu Liunian said indifferently. Mr. Jia was dead anyway, so it didn't matter even if someone knew about this.
"Don't you hate Mr. Jia?" Ruan Tianxi asked Mu Liunian.
"There shouldn't be anyone here who doesn't hate him, right?" Mu Liunian smiled and turned his attention to Ruan Tianxi: "Don't you hate him too?"
"Ah?" Fang Langxing asked in confusion, and everyone else's eyes were focused on Ruan Tianxi.
Seeing that everyone was staring at him, Ruan Tianxi laughed and changed the subject.
"So what is your method of killing?"
"It's okay to tell you. You also know what my job is." Mu Liunian felt that there was nothing to hide, so he spread his hands and answered.
"Did you put drugs in the food?" Duan Hanyun asked curiously.
"No, it's just about taking advantage of the relationship between foods." Mu Liunian pointed to his recipe and smiled.
"Then we ate it too, didn't we?!" Yun Zhao felt a headache coming on as he thought about how he had to go home for dinner every day because of Mr. Jia's rule.
"In order to show that he is a perfect person, that man would taste all the dishes at every meal, which also gave me an opportunity." Mu Liunian answered him with a smile.
"Oh, because Mr. Jia wants to prove that he is not a picky eater, he doesn't allow others to be picky eaters, so every meal will have dishes that others don't like." Ruan Tianxi suddenly realized and said, "You won't pick up your chopsticks if you don't like the food, right?"
The others nodded and looked at Mu Liunian with awe. Does this mean that one can offend anyone but not the chef?
"I started taking action after I found out that the old butler was dead." Mu Liunian said calmly, as if he was not talking about his own business.
"That's already been a year. I was wondering why his health was getting worse day by day." Yun Zhao counted the days and said with understanding.
"Don't you have anything else?" Mu Tianya said as he searched Mu Liunian's pockets.
After making sure that there was really nothing left, they went to Mu Tianya's room together.
Mu Tianya is Mr. Jia's exclusive driver. He has been working for two years and also lives in the mansion. He obeys Mr. Jia's work arrangements and is always on call.
His room is right next to Mu Liunian, and the whole room gives people the same feeling as him, chaotic yet orderly.
There was a set of tightly wrapped clothes in Mu Tianya's closet. It looked wrinkled and stained with mud, and looked a little disheveled.
"What's going on?" Fang Langxing held the clothes and could smell the scent of rain and grass when he got closer. It felt like the owner of the clothes had rolled on the grass on a rainy day.
Mu Tianya didn't say anything and didn't seem to want to say anything.
Hua Xinyi seemed to have thought of something, and spoke hesitantly: "One day it rained heavily, and Tianya came late. Mr. Jia was angry and wanted to fire Tianya. Tianya needed this job, so Mr. Jia made Tianya kneel on the ground to apologize to him, and then kicked Tianya down."
Fang Langxing listened and indeed found a big footprint on his clothes.
"It's because of that incident." Mu Tianya clenched his fists, as if he remembered the scene of that day again.
"There's a computer." Mu Liunian found a laptop from under the pillow, opened it and looked through it.
"You have a younger sister?" Mu Liunian looked at the photo of Mu Tianya and a photo of Mu Tianya in women's clothing that was obviously photoshopped in. He felt a little distracted and could hardly hold back his laughter.
Mu Tianya knew what he was laughing at and rolled his eyes: "Don't you look different from me?"
Fang Langxing looked at the long-haired version of Mu Tianya with a pink bow on his head, lowered his head and smiled muffledly, his whole body vibrating from laughing.
"That's enough." Mu Tianya crossed his arms and rolled his eyes.
It would have been fine if he didn't say anything, but once he spoke, others couldn't hold back their laughter any more. They laughed so hard that they fell backwards and knelt on the ground holding their stomachs.
[I really hope the production team has fulfilled my wish to watch the female version of Tianya! Hahahahahahahaha]
[I really didn’t mean to laugh! ]
[I am so impressed. I was drinking water when this photo came out. I spit out a mouthful of water on the screen. My computer! ! ]
[I can’t tell which is funnier, the one above or the one in women’s clothing by Tianya! ! ! ]
"Oh, your sister is studying abroad? You work here to pay for her high tuition fees?" Mu Liunian wiped the tears from his eyes and said with emotion: "Our Tianya is still a good brother!"
"I'm telling you, that's enough!" Mu Tianya couldn't bear it anymore, he rushed forward, pinned down Mu Liunian and beat him up. Mu Liunian just laughed and didn't resist at all.
"There has been no news from my sister for a month?" Lin Jingmo took the computer and looked at his sister's reply from a month ago.
"Well, I can't contact her." Mu Tianya replied: "She told me before that her friend was involved in a dangerous incident. I don't know if it's because of this."
"There are still things, look for them again." Mu Liunian said affirmatively.
Sure enough, I found a report on the computer. It was a foreign news report about a girl who died tragically in the park and her identity is still unknown.
But in the photos taken at the scene, a pink bow was lying alone on the ground, stained with blood and dirt, telling the tragic fate of its owner.
Mu Tianya looked at other people who had seen the news, and raised his eyelids slightly. His dark pupils reflected endless coldness, as if he wanted to stab people.
"I don't know why my sister died, and I don't know if this incident has anything to do with Mr. Jia."
Everyone thought so and continued to look for other clues, but unfortunately they found nothing.
After searching for more than ten minutes, no other clues were found in Mu Tianya's room.
So, they went together to Ruan Tianxi, who was supposed to be a detective but had his own room in the mansion.
