Li Yao's dinner was eventually eaten in the room. Although he missed the very important opportunity to reason, he felt refreshed and did not regret it.

No wonder there are so many kinds of perfumes in Europe, it turns out that there has been a lot of demand since ancient times, he thought endlessly in bed, silently waiting for the snort in the middle of the night, and then everyone gathered together, shocked by the corpse, and then as a detective, he looked for all kinds of clues

Find it

Find it

He slowly fell asleep.

―――――――――――――――

In front of me is a blood red, nothing else is left, some scenes appear chaotically, very miscellaneous, a lot, but the background has always been a thick blood red, at this time the blood red disappeared violently, but then there is a feeling of suffocation, unable to breathe, and the brain is gradually deprived of oxygen-

He opened his eyes suddenly, and Zed was standing in front of him pinching his nose, and the curtains behind him had been drawn, and there was only a beam of light, straight and intensely carved into the ground.

He slapped Zed's hand away: "You're looking for cough, Whatareyou**ingdoing (Are you looking for death)?!"

Zede withdrew his hand and hugged his arms: "It's you who is looking for death, what time is it, and how long will the Marquis wait for you?"

Li Yao was a little dazed: "What time is it?"

"It's seven o'clock, you slept really well, and you have to continue to set off today, hurry up." ”

"Oh wait, what about the dead, why didn't I hear the shouts, quick, take me."

Zed unceremoniously tapped him on the head: "Nonsense, wake up from your dream." ”

He covered his head, a little dizzy: "What, no one was killed and nothing happened?"

"Why is there an accident? You nobles are really afraid that the world will not be chaotic."

While they were talking, suddenly a frightened cry came from upstairs!

Both of them were taken aback, Li Yao suddenly turned over and got out of bed, put on his clothes and ran upstairs, the voice was a young male voice, but no matter who could hear the fear, he stumbled upstairs, and found the place where the sound came from, which was obviously the hostess's room, the first thing that caught his eye was a huge and gorgeous makeup mirror, the white oak border was depicted with the pattern of gold flowers and branches, and the mirror was clearly reflected in the mirror, a purple curtain was torn and broken, and on the bed, it was a hostess with a dead face!

To the right of the door was a set of cabinets, and the first frightened witness, the hostess's nephew, Aldo, was sitting on the floor with his back to the door, his legs moving backwards, and he seemed to have been shocked.

He tried to lift the poor man up, but as he walked over, he noticed a man standing quietly in the shadows by the curtain.

Li Yao almost screamed, and when he looked at it again, it turned out to be a humanoid porcelain puppet, lifelike wearing a gorgeous dress, with smooth and beautiful skin, but unfortunately there was a piece of damage under the left eye, and the fine crack spread to half of his face.

"God, God!" Aldo's mouth kept on muttering, and then some more people came, including Yang Ming, the bard, the pair of knights, and the attendants he had seen yesterday.

As soon as the waiter came in, he fell to his knees and muttered in prayer:

"God, God has finally come on this day!"

The others were also shocked, only Yang Ming seemed the calmest, and said to everyone:

"The reputation of the lady is at stake, and it is not appropriate to expand the matter without first investigation. I have asked my servants to go and appease the servants of the inn, and sir, please close the door. ”

At the door was a brown-haired knight, who was a little sluggish, and closed the door with a shudder, and his companion, a green-eyed man, asked in a trembling voice, "That lady may not be that I remember that there is a family doctor here, or else?"

But Aldo interrupted him: "Don't leave it to chance! My aunt, my pious aunt, how can such a thing happen to us?"

His voice was loud at first, but at the end he spoke softer and softer, and the last few words were directly hidden in the air, and could no longer be heard.

Yang Ming walked to the side of the bed, and Li Yao gave himself the courage to walk over.

The emaciated lady on the bed was clearly a dead person: her face was constricted, she had no body temperature, her pulse was no longer there, Yang Ming opened her eyelids with gloves, and her gray-blue eyes had lost their luster and became cloudy.

"It's really dead," Li Yao whispered.

Yang Ming didn't speak.

"I think we can ask the doctor to come and see the cause of Madame's death," he said to Yang Ming, "all of us are tourists, and sooner or later this matter will have to be made public, and our actions will be very suspicious." ”

Yang Ming glanced at him lightly: "It's okay, I'm more experienced than a family doctor, and if you want to go through the process, don't forget that this is your family's fiefdom, and it will be under the jurisdiction of Lingzun." ”

Li Yao probably understood that this guy should want to investigate on his own and didn't want to be disturbed. As Zed said, his actions are all out of interest.

Li Yao watched him lift the quilt, observed the hostess's palm, and then put the quilt back in its original state.

Forget it, he's always been this kind of personality anyway.

Their conversation was very quiet, so others were still unclear for the time being, Yang Ming turned his head and said to everyone:

"The lady was no longer angry, but there was no sign of blood loss, and the wound was not fatal. For the time being, this is the only way to make a conclusion. ”

Several people listened and reacted differently, but his nephew Aldo was the most excited, raised his hand, and slowly put it down, looking confused and sad. The waiter kept making a cross on his chest, but his hands were shaking very much.

The knights had calmed down, looked at each other, and said, "We are sorry that such a thing happened, although it is a pity, but we have to leave for another place today."

At this time, no one expected that the puppet standing silently on the side would actually creak and crunch!

"Though I have walked through the valley of the shadow of death,

and not afraid of harm,

for thou art with me;

Thy rod,

Your rods comfort me. *”

Aldo, who was closest to the thing, was already in a bad mental state, and now he was even more frightened and fainted, and he was motionless, but at this time, a person appeared from behind the puppet with a grin, it was actually the bard, and he hid behind the puppet at some point.

"God, man, why are you there?" said the knights, too, frightened, and in a very unkind tone.

This poet is delicate, and his voice is also high-pitched, obviously at the scene of death, but he is not strict at all:

"Why are you so afraid? Life and death, regardless of the realm, are one and belong to life. Just as lifting a foot is like landing a foot, it is walking. *”

Li Yao noticed that the string of bits and pieces hanging around his neck yesterday was gone, but it was a pity that he didn't go to eat, otherwise he would definitely have noticed more details.

"Don't interrupt. You're leaving in a hurry, aren't you?"

The two knights who were asked nodded again and again: "Yes, today is an important baptism day for the children of our comrades-in-arms, and we must be present." ”

"But now, too," he gestured to Madame's body, "we don't know what caused the death, so everyone present - or rather in this house - is suspicious. ”

The two of them had a look on their faces: "But"

Yang Ming spoke: "Madame went back to the room after welcoming us, please tell me about your actions since then." ”

He was tall, restrained and deep, and his words were also very convincing, and the two listened to it, and after thinking for a while, the brown-haired one said first:

"Yesterday we went to the back lake for some exercise"

Li Yao: "No, I once looked at the window, but there was no one by the lake. ”

Greeneye: "Maybe you didn't see clearly, we're really over there!"

The poet interjected: "Well, I see it, I prove it." ”

Li Yao: "But"

Yang Ming waved his hand and motioned for brown hair to continue.

The brown-haired knight glanced at the bed and said, "Then we went to the restaurant for dinner, Aldo had just arrived here, and he was very interested in Yiqiē, so he asked us a lot of things, and we talked about speculation. ”

Yang Ming: "Then." ”

The brown hair was just about to speak, and the green eye preemptively said, "Then we went back to the room to pray, fell asleep, and never came to the third floor at all!"

Poet: "I went to bed last night as if I heard someone coming upstairs, and I was angry because it was heavy. ”

Brownhair exclaimed, "That's none of our business!"

Poet: "I didn't say it had anything to do with you, don't get excited, brother. ”

Waiter: "I came up last night to extinguish the candles in the hallway." ”

Li Yao: "Then why is it a heavy voice?"

Poet: "If it were as you say, you should be light-hearted." ”

There was chaos at the scene, and Li Yao listened to it for a while, only to feel that his head was big. It was a strange matter, and it had not been fully investigated, and everyone's statements were incomplete, including himself, who acted suspiciously.

"That's it!" Li Yao shouted, and the people arguing stopped, "Don't blame each other, let's sort out what we already know first!"

Yang Ming was the first to speak: "Madame died, according to the state before her death, it should not be a natural death, and at the same time, as a devout Christian, there is no reason to commit suicide." ”

"Wait," asked Li Yao, "how do you know she's a devout Christian?"

"According to yesterday's conversational habits, the dirty face*, and the cocoon of the cross on the hand. ”

"Yes," chimed the waiter, "my master is a very devout believer, please do not doubt it. She would never have committed such a sinful thing as suicide. ”

"Oh. Li Yao nodded, and then said, "Then it's either suicide, or he killed it." ”

Now the question now comes back to who is most suspicious of the pair of knights who claim to be practicing, and the poet is mysterious and a little eccentric attendant

While speculating, Aldo finally woke up, listened for a while, and said: "You think that among us, the squire is the one who moves around the most and knows the most, why don't you let him talk about the person who thinks he is the most suspicious, and then analyze them one by one, how about it?"

Knight: "We have a clear conscience, of course!"

Poet: "Listen to it." ”

The others had no opinion, and the waiter agreed, but he said that he had to recall it well, and that he should not leave the body of his wife alone for a long time, so that the house might as well be used as a morgue for the time being, and the few people chose a room again to discuss the matter.

Everyone was not without opinion, and as a relative of the deceased, Aldo went tremblingly to arrange the remains of his wife, and covered her face with her handkerchief.

Even if you close your eyes, your face is still so gloomy and sad.
