Chapter 082 Night Detective Murder First Scene

At night, it's silent. The officer and I took his subordinate, and the three of them came to Degege's courtyard together.

This courtyard has been searched many times, and in everyone's opinion, there are basically no clues that can be found, and it may be the first scene of Degege's murder, everyone feels bad luck and fear, so it is almost deserted, and no one dares to approach it after nightfall, even if it is a long detour, it is not willing to approach for half a minute.

The official and his subordinates were not wearing official robes, they were dressed in dark clothes, and I was still the head of the chamberlain, and the three of them entered the courtyard without much difficulty.

I don't know if I have encountered too many things, my heart has become tough and strong, and I can still secretly think that this section is very bloody at the moment, but the outfit is too ordinary, if I can wear black clothes and black pants, I may be able to play a scene where a heroine visits Baylor's Mansion at night. Of course, a chivalrous girl and a blind woman without martial arts are no different, so they can only laugh at themselves, maybe they have been stimulated too much recently, and their brains have become bigger.

This kind of secret self-deprecation is actually just a move to cheer yourself up. Although I don't believe in any ghosts, I still have an irrepressible instinctive fear in the face of the dark and gloomy courtyard. The house was in the darkness as if the coffin was waiting to be buried, and the thought that the murderer might still be hiding in a corner and spying on us could not help but stand on end, although it was a July day, it made people shiver uncontrollably as if they were in an ice cellar. "This yard and house have been searched almost three feet into the ground, and it is difficult to find out what is going on. The official was still calm, and looked around the courtyard and whispered. "Either way, I'd like to see for myself, maybe my thinking is different from yours, and I might find something else. I said in a resolute tone.

The official couldn't resist my insistence, led me up the steps, came to the door, and unlocked it with the key. The creak of the door opening was so clear in the darkness that it made my heart flutter.

The officer's subordinates came to the candlestick to light the candlestick, but I stopped them. I said, "There is no light in this room, maybe the murderer is also watching here, and if the lights are turned on and people know that we are checking this place at night, I am afraid it will startle them." “

He took the lantern they had carried as they walked all the way, looked at the ground, and wondered where to start.

I am not a professional criminal investigator for clues such as fingerprint footprints, and even if the scene is fully protected, I can't see anything, let alone that this place has been touched and stepped on countless times by countless people.

I suddenly closed my eyes and imagined myself as Dege who had returned from the family dinner that day, imagining what she would do, where she would go first, and what might have happened to her.

Standing in front of the house, I thought that she was a pregnant woman, and she must have been a little tired from walking a long way from the family banquet, so she would definitely find a place to rest and drink tea first. So he opened his eyes and walked to the couch by the window. "Did you move the location of the furnishings when you searched them? and under these cushions, did you check them?" I asked the two men.

They nodded and said that they had moved, and they had turned over the table mats, but they didn't find anything related, so they didn't take anything away, and they still restored them as they were.

I nodded and sat down in the place where she might have been, picked up an empty teacup on the table, looked at it, and asked, "Why didn't you take this teacup as evidence?"

The official was puzzled and asked, "What's wrong with this teacup?"

I frowned and said, "According to the usual rules, the servants and maids serve tea to the master, and whether the master has drunk it or not, this tea cup will be put away immediately after the master leaves, instead of being placed on the table. But don't you think it's strange that the teacup is obviously used, but the water in it is gone, and the cup is confiscated?"

When the official heard this, he was shocked and asked, "What do you mean by Gege...... Degege didn't leave the seat he was sitting in, so the others didn't put away the teacups, and then everyone was fascinated by the scent of hibiscus?" But there is another possibility......" I said, putting the teacup back into the distance, getting up and continuing to deduce Degege's movements, "that is, Degege may have just gotten up and left, and before the servants and maids could clean up, Degege and the others all fainted and lost consciousness. “

As I spoke, I took a few steps forward, deduced the location where Degege might have fainted by the time when the hibiscus was inhaled and the effect of the medicine, and squatted down with a lantern on the ground to check it, but I didn't see any clues, so I had to stand up, and continued: "So in other words, Degege has not been to the bed, and you can't say that you found my jade pendant by the bed." “

The official looked at the low couch behind me, and then looked at the distance of the box-type bed, and asked: "But it is also possible that Degege felt tired and wanted to go to bed, so the servants and maids lit incense......

From the sentence he asked, I heard that he was actually still suspicious of me, not as trusting as I saw before, maybe his purpose in helping me was not to wash away my grievances, but to help me get rid of my guilt for Yinyu's instructions.

I don't mind if he thinks like this, after all, there is indeed too much evidence against me, and it is understandable that they would suspect me and Xiao Shunzi in their inherent way of thinking. It was still the same sentence just now, and it was impossible for the servant to wait for her to get to the bed and not take away the teacup. So this incense is definitely lit all the time. So from the moment they entered the house, they inhaled the scent of hibiscus, and they all fainted. But have you ever thought about the possibility?" After saying this, I suddenly felt another thought flash through my mind, and this thought made me realize that everyone may have been led into a misunderstanding by the murderer's deliberate planting. "Is there another possibility?" the officer seemed to be a little dizzy by my possibilities, but he also seemed to have vaguely grasped something that he hadn't noticed before. "There is also a possibility - what if Degege and her servants were not all fascinated at all, but had nothing to do with Hibiscus, who was a prop that only existed for the purpose of planting a false accusation?" I raised this question, and saw that the official and his subordinates looked solemn, and began to seriously consider the possibility I had raised. "Please give me advice!" the official thought for a moment, and seemed to have something in mind, but instead of speaking outright, he motioned for me to speak my mind first.

Unintentionally hidden, I looked around the room and said: "According to the regulations, a Gege is surrounded by at least one servant and two maids. In other words, in addition to Derge, there will be four people in this courtyard. If, according to what you said, the murderer was an adult man, after stuning Degege, he could indeed kill her without alarming anyone in the house. But in such a short period of time, isn't it too difficult to kill one person, then dispose of four others, and then throw Degege's body into the inner lake some distance from here after nightfall without leaving a trace?"

After listening to my analysis, the official paced the room and pondered for a long time, and then said meaningfully: "It seems that this is really not something that can be done by one person...... , doesn't that mean that there must be accomplices among the servants and maids in this courtyard!"

I nodded and agreed: "Let's think about it another way, if the hibiscus flower was lit when Degege came back, then after enchanting Degege, the room must be kept ventilated, so that the murderer himself will not be stunned." However, hibiscus is not a poison, unless it is eaten by its petals to make people sleepy for a long time, if the smell alone will only make these people drowsy and fall asleep for a short time, but once the room is kept ventilated, these people can quickly wake up. How could he then kill Degege in a short time and dispose of the other four with the strength of one person? Moreover, the hibiscus flower you found in the incense burner has been burned to powder, which means that the burning time must have been very long, and if the incense of the hibiscus flower is really used to charm the people in the house, then the murderer must have been in this fragrance all along, and he still has the strength to strangle Degege, who is not thin and weak as a child of the steppe, without encountering any resistance?"

So Gege thinks...... "The official still responds to my analysis by listening to me first and drawing conclusions."

I didn't want to continue to go around the bend with him, so I turned around and pointed to the teacup on the table, and said bluntly: "So I think that Degege is not fascinated by the fragrance of hibiscus flowers, but that there is something wrong with that cup of tea, and that teacup should still have water when something happened, maybe there is no water in it now, only the teacup remains, don't you think it's strange?" I don't know why the man didn't destroy the teacup, but just poured it out, but anyway you put the teacup away, and then go back and boil it in water, and feed it to the animals, and I think you will see it immediately.
