The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 288: Spring Outing Kidnapping Incident [(2)]

Since late March and early April were usually the days for spring outings, before Sun Shaozong raised any doubts, no one thought there was anything wrong.

But hearing him say so, there were indeed many doubts.

If it were a busy official who only had time to go out and play on that day, it would be usual. However, Ma Yingjue was only focused on taking the imperial examination and had no serious job at all.

Since that was the case, why did he choose to go on a spring outing on a gloomy and cold day?

The crowd began to doubt and gradually turned their attention to Ma-Fu. After all, among the people present, only she had gone out for an outing with Ma Yingjue, and were the closest couple to each other. It would be natural for her to address this doubt.

This... This

Ma-Fu shyly pursed her mouth, and it really showed some charm.

But at present, no one cared about any amorous feelings, especially Ma Chunfeng, who urgently said, "My dear Daughter-in-law, did you ever find anything wrong with Jueer when you went hiking that day?

This... This

Ma-Fu stuttered twice again but still had a shy expression.

Ma Chunfeng became even more annoyed and immediately couldnt wait to speak out and scold.

Inspector Qiu, Constable Zhao!

Sun Shaozong suddenly rushed to command, "You two, go out first.

Although Qiu Yunfei was somewhat reluctant, he obediently left the study with Zhao Wuwei.

After the two of them left, Sun Shaozong kindly said, "Madam, both Lord Ma and Judge Fu are your close relatives. As the person in charge of this case, I cant avoid it. But I can swear that no matter what you say today, without your consent, I will never pass it on to others.

As he spoke, he made a solemn oath and then urged, "Madam, don't you want to save Young Master Ma as soon as possible?

Ma Chunfeng and Fu Xian were also helping out, and seeing that they couldn't make excuses, Ma-Fu had to confide in the truth and said, "If there's anything wrong with it, it's about two days ago, I'm talking about on the 23rd. When the Master suddenly became... A bit excited

He only favors me once every ten or so days, but on that day, he even asked for me twice in a row.

Ma Chunfeng heard that everything she said was about her inner privacy and had nothing to do with the disappearance of her son. He frowned and wanted to urge her to say something useful.

Sun Shaozong quickly stopped with his eyes and gently pursued, "Then what? What else is wrong?

When Ma-Fu was encouraged, she bit her lower lip and said, "The next day, I ate three tonics in a row, all of which were for tonifying... I thought he would have... At night."

Who knew he slept in the study at night?"

I was afraid that I might get cut off by some coquettish hooves, so I sent someone over to take a look. Unexpectedly, the Master went to bed alone early.

On the 25th, the Master insisted on going out for a spring outing, and I couldn't stop him. As a result, something happened inexplicably.

At this point, she shook her head and said, "I haven't noticed anything wrong with the rest.

Ma Chunfeng and Fu Shi finished listening to her narration, but for a moment, they didn't know how to comment.Follow current s on Novᴇ(l)ꜰɪre .ɴᴇt

To say that it was not related to the case did sound a bit strange. It might be related to the case, but they really couldnt see any connection.

Finally, the two had to turn their gaze to Sun Shaozong.

After seeing Sun Shaozong pondering for a while, he suddenly continued to ask, "On the 23rd, besides being more excited than usual, does Mr. Ma also have other unusual behaviors, such as his special preference for certain patterns that he doesnt usually use or suddenly becoming particularly interested in certain parts of yours?

Lord Sun.

Before Sun Shaozong could continue, Fu Shi was beside him and said angrily, We invited you to solve a case. What is the reason for you to humiliate my sister like this?

Although Ma Chunfeng didnt speak, there was also a hint of dissatisfaction.

Calm down.

Sun Shaozong spread out his hand and said, "The investigation was supposed to uncover clues from the details and I'm not asking these things for no reason at all.

"On the 24th, he took a lot of tonic to nourish his body. At night, he slept alone in his study, so that he could naturally recuperate."

On the 23rd, it was because of some impatience that he treated his wife as a substitute for each other. If this were the case, the sexual intercourse would naturally be different from usual.

Ah.

Before Fu Shi said anything, Ma-Fu suddenly let out a cry of surprise. After her face changed a few times, she said with some embarrassment, "No wonder I thought it was strange that night. It turned out that he... He actually treated me like someone else.

Upon hearing this, Sun Shaozong immediately felt refreshed and quickly pursued her. "I wonder what's strange about them all."

He

Although she had just mentioned the intimate details in her boudoir, Ma-Fu continued to wriggle about them until Ma Chunfeng also spoke up to urge her. She hesitated and said, "He used so much force that night that he made me scream in pain.

During the conversation, seeing that both her Father-in-law and Brother had a strange expression on their faces, she hurriedly explained, "It's not that kind of pain, it's... He's pinching my ankle and desperately lifting it! And

Ma-Fu gritted her teeth and revealed some details. The more Fu Shi and Ma Chunfeng listened, the more embarrassed their faces became. However, Sun Shaozong's face became more gloomy as he listened.

Madam.

He suddenly interrupted Ma-Fu's narration and asked in a deep voice, "Does Young Master Ma go for a spring outing outside the city every year?

Ma-Fu was taken aback and quickly shook her head, saying, "This has never happened before. In my memory, the Master only occasionally went there once or twice.

Sun Shaozong immediately asked again, "When was the last time he went hiking outside the city?

About... three years ago.

After a brief recollection, Ma-Fu firmly said, "Three years ago, it seems that the Master also went for a spring outing outside the city due to his failure in the exam.

Also on March 25th.

Wait, it seems like it should be a few days earlier.

What was wrong with him at that time?

Sun Shaozong sped up the questioning, but Ma-Fu remembered for a long time before shaking her head and saying, "Theres nothing wrong. It's just that after coming back from the outing, his mood improved a lot.

Did he ever leave midway?

Hmm

While Ma-Fu was pondering, Ma Chunfeng, who was beside her, frowned. "Lord Sun, why are you only asking about the matter three years ago? You should know that Jueer was kidnapped by a strong man two days ago.

Sun Shaozong shook his head and said solemnly, "Although the Young Master has just been kidnapped, I suspect that this case is actually a serial case.

A serial case?

Ma Chunfeng was a bit confused again. Why did this kidnapper still have a serial case? Was it true that his son had been kidnapped twice? Three years ago and now?

How could this be possible?!

That's right.

At this moment, Ma-Fu had already recalled the details and quickly said, "The Master did leave for about an hour, but he took two servant boys to hunt.

He went hunting with two servant boys?

Sun Shaozong quickly pursued and asked, "Where are these two young servants now? Can you call them over and let me ask a few questions?

Ma-Fu immediately shook her head and said, "I'm afraid it won't be possible. Not long after returning from the outing, those two young servants redeemed their deeds at the same time and left the Ma Mansion together. They have long disappeared.

Upon hearing this, even if Sun Shaozong didnt explain anything, Fu Shi and Ma Chunfeng had already noticed something wrong.

Lord Ma.

Ma Chunfeng was finding it difficult to make sense of the relationship between the kidnapping case and the information his Daughter-in-law had disclosed. He heard Sun Shaozong sneered and said, "I'm afraid after rescuing your son, he won't be able to return home for the time being because we have other cases in the Central Judicial Office now that we need to carefully interrogate him.
