Li Yiting, who rushed to Mutu Village to investigate the scene of the stone bridge, was extremely tormented and contradictory in his heart.

The reason why he didn't bring other helpers was not only because of the shortage of manpower, but also because of his many concerns. For the first time in so many years, he felt apprehensive in the investigation of the case, and sometimes even wanted to give up.

This emotion came so suddenly, it made him feel panicked.

Obviously, it is a matter of human life, why doesn't he want to ask? This may have something to do with the fact that he lived in this village as a child, and what makes him even more painful is that even if he finds out the truth, the murderer will probably be some people who have been with him since childhood, if this murderous killer is really his cousin Li Fuqi?

To be honest, he wasn't sure if he had a strong enough heart to accept such an outcome.

Li Fuqi is not only his closest sibling, but also the pride of the people of Li Village, and now he is also shouldering the heavy responsibility of guarding the artifact with himself.

Moreover, why Li Fuqi did this is the problem that bothers Li Yiting the most.

Motivation, motivation...... Everything has a result, there must be a reason, is it really for the death of the fourth uncle and four aunts, but Li Yiting really didn't know about this matter at all, the elders all said that he died of illness, could it be that there was another hidden secret?

It is customary for children not to know or inquire about the grievances of their elders.

If there is really a hidden secret, then it is understandable that Li Fuqi has resentment or even revenge, but when the fourth uncle and four aunts died, Fuqi was not yet a year old, and where the hatred came from is obviously nonsense.

Unless someone told him secretly, who would that person be?

Li Yiting simply went through the names of several people in his mind: Li Qisi, Xun Yuanchun, or one of the Li brothers......

The more he thought about it, the more creepy he became, which meant that the entire Li Village was suspicious!

But in his impression, Li Village has always been a place of harmony and tranquility, and it is also the place where he dreams back at midnight, but now it has become a place of right and wrong with bloody wind and rain, and he shuddered to think about it.

The huge psychological gap made him a little dizzy, and before he knew it, he had walked to the stone bridge in Mutu Village, and suddenly his feet slipped, and he almost fell into the river.

This made him completely sober up.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Li Yiting carefully looked at this ancient stone bridge, which was no more than ten meters long and less than three meters wide, and was a common arch bridge in the countryside. There are eight pillars on the left and right, the number of railings is doubled, and the pavement is also made of stones and then compacted with clay. He walked back and forth on the bridge a few times, but found nothing special, except for a collapse of earth and rocks at both ends, that is, the road surface was a little uneven, and there were several obvious potholes on the bridge deck.

He tried to push each pillar hard, but none of them moved, as if they had taken root. I have to say that the wisdom of the ancestors is still outstanding, and the bridge built with pure bluestone, except for the lack of consideration in terms of load (there were no large trucks of dozens of tons before), the overall structure is first-class. Li Yiting carefully inspected each stone pillar and railing, but found a few obvious traces of friction, but they were all shallow and blurry, and they really couldn't be seen if he didn't pay attention to them.

After a moment's thought, he looked out of the bridge, where the water was murmuring, but it didn't seem to be very deep, and the surface of the river was covered with half-submerged stones. Li Yiting didn't hesitate too much, he held on to a stone pillar with his hand, jumped over the railing with a slight jump, and hung it next to the stone bridge. This action is a bit dangerous, because the outside of the stone bridge is vertical, and there is no reserved place to stay, so he is hanging there in the air, and he can only use his toes to find some gaps to support.

Fortunately, there was no one walking around the bridge, otherwise others would have thought that he was going to jump into the river and kill himself.

Li Yiting alternately broke the railing with both hands, moved horizontally, and touched the longitudinal surface of the stone bridge with his feet, moving slowly as if playing acrobatics, like a gecko attached to the wall, but at first glance it was extremely thrilling.

He took the time to look down, and suddenly let go of his hands when he saw the opportunity, and his body fell sharply, did he want to try to jump into the river once? But not everyone is so lucky, if his head accidentally hits some rock, the master will also die, and he really fights.

Seeing his body falling freely for several meters, he reached out and grabbed the stone wall like lightning, and his body was instantly stopped, but a huge force came from his arm, and his wrists and muscles hurt. Li Yiting is not an immortal, he did not insert his hand into the crack in the stone, but buckled the lower edge of the bridge.

After the inertia was completely eliminated, Li Yiting jumped up elegantly with both hands, followed by a side roll, he successfully entered the bridge hole of the stone bridge****** the bridge will be designed with an (oval) shaped bridge hole, but it is impossible to stand up, the diameter of the bridge hole is more than one meter, he can only use his hands and feet at the same time, and climb in. Although the hole was a little dim, he could see at a glance that there were some objects scattered in the center of the hole: a dark green tool kit and a bundle of rope, a few cigarette butts.

Li Yiting was mixed with joy and sorrow, and his mood was very complicated, he even stopped several times for no reason, and he didn't dare to go up to check it easily.

Happy, his judgment was correct, just now on the railing above the bridge hole, found several annular light-colored scratches, sure enough, caused by the rope; and this is the most complete physical evidence he has obtained since the incident, if the buttons found in the trap last time only provide clues and ideas to solve the case, then this kit, rope and cigarette butt may directly reveal the true face of the murderer.

He believed that unless someone had an other purpose, he would never have gone to such great lengths to hide his tools in a bridge hole, let alone a stone bridge that had just had an accident. At that time, as soon as the physical evidence is sent to the forensic center, the murderer will basically be revealed.

The only thing that worries him now, of course, is the owner of the equipment: it's okay if it's not Fuqi's stuff, otherwise he'd have to send his brother to prison with his own hands.

Of course, he knew what he would do, and it was obviously unlikely that he would bend the law for personal gain.

Li Yiting was so ambivalent that he opened the toolkit and took it out, trying to hold the tools with two fingers: a stone chisel, a hammer, and an iron hammer......

His face suddenly turned pale, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead—

A white cloth in the toolkit was turned out, and there was an unusually dazzling word "Qi" on it!

Li Yiting's whole body froze, and he sat down on the ground in a dejected manner for a long time.

Then he shuddered and took out a cigarette and lit it and smacked it.

It wasn't until the cigarette butt burned his fingers that he threw the cigarette butt on the ground with hatred, rubbed it hard with the soles of his feet, and then crawled out again with an expressionless face, and looked upward, and it was probably impossible to climb up again.

A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and a clear vein seemed to appear: the murderer must have chiseled a loose stone pillar, first hid his tools near the stone bridge, and only after Li Qihuai fell into the river did he take out the rope, climb into the bridge hole, hide the tools of the crime, and finally ...... jumped into the river and rescued Li Qihuai!

Sure enough, it has been planned for a long time and has been carefully arranged.

Thinking about it this way, the deaths of Li Qiwen and Li Qiumao are also meticulous and leave no flaws.

Then, it is very likely that the murderer is the same person.
