Footprints, strangulation marks, motives, Yu Ziqiang's confession unravels all doubts.

Coupled with the successful on-site footprints, Zhang Wenxing waved his hand and sentenced him to capital punishment, and he was beheaded after the autumn.

But he didn't have half the joy of catching the murderer.

An indescribable and unclear ambiguity lingers in my heart.

He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

It's too smooth.

All of them went according to what he expected, Yu Ziqiang's arrest, and Yu Ziqiang's confession.

Especially Yu Ziqiang's confession.

It's simply seamless, without a single superfluous word.

He had never been a person who relied on intuition, but this time he was upset by his too perfect confession.

Master once said that human life is greater than heaven, and any mistake may let go of a murderer, wronging a good person, and affecting the innocent.

He couldn't go to see Brother Nine with anxiety all the way.

Even if he is late this year, Brother Jiu will definitely forgive him.

He let out a loud shout, tightened the reins, and turned the horse's head.

******

The county office, on the side of the public hall, in the conference hall.

"You say, do you think Yu Ziqiang may not be the murderer who killed Li Xinyi?" Wei Yi asked.

"Yes." Shen Yueran nodded again and again, took out the portrait in his pocket, spread it out, and flattened it.

"Bold woman, she actually took out a children's painting to tease adults!" Hearing that Zhang Wenxing, who heard Wei Yi returning, was also on the side, he looked over and scolded loudly.

Wei Yi's face darkened instantly.

Shen Yueran rolled her eyes, "My lord, this painting is made by a big man." ”

Zhang Wenxing was excited, and couldn't help but look at Wei Yi, who nodded at him.

Zhang Wenxing was so frightened that his legs and feet were sore, and he couldn't speak, and explained, "Lord Wei is angry, and Xia Guan has no intention of offending, but the person in this painting is really weird, so Xia Guan blurted out ......"

Wei Yi's face was even darker, Zhang Wenxing was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, and the more he described, the darker and darker, "No, no, the lower official didn't say that Master Wei painted weirdly, but that this person, this person was born weird......"

Shen Yueran lazily ignored Zhang Wenxing's embarrassment and picked up the pen and ink.

She dyed the hair of the person in the painting black, added two braids to the chest, and reduced the body of the person in the painting to a limb thin. The person who was originally born strangely in the painting has become a delicate little girl.

"It's her!" A gleam flashed in Wei Yi's eyes. He could see at a glance who the portrait that had been modified by Shen Yueran was again.

"Yes." Shen Yueran was solemn.

She went to the cake shop early in the morning, but she was always thinking about Yu Xiaoying in her heart, on the one hand, she was afraid that she would be hungry, and on the other hand, she was afraid that Wu Zhaorong would take the opportunity to hurt her. So, after a furnace of shortbread was baked, he immediately packed a few and returned to Shen's house. Before he got close to the Shen family, he saw Yu Xiaoying standing outside the wall and probing his brain. She was about to call, but Yu Xiaoying got into the dog hole in the corner of the wall with a cat waist.

She was suspicious in her heart, walked into the Shen family lightly, hid behind the door, and saw the whole process of Yu Xiaoying's cruelty to Wu Zhaorong clearly.

Sprinkle chili powder, pour chili water, hit head-on, tie hands and feet-

Is this something that an eleven- or two-year-old girl can do?

When Yu Xiaoying picked up the bowl of long-grain rice and devoured it, her heart seemed to be hit hard.

She took out the portrait in her private collection, and the greedy expression of the person in the painting was exactly the same as Yu Xiaoying in front of her.

No, it won't!

It won't be her!

Xiao Ying is just a hard-working child, just greedy for a while.

Li Xinyi's death has nothing to do with her, and the death of Li's grandmother has nothing to do with her.

But what happened next made Shen Yueran no longer so determined.

After Yu Xiaoying finished eating the rice, she searched Wu Zhaorong and lit the rope......

When Yu Xiaoying left the Shen family in a hurry, she rescued Wu Zhaorong who had fainted, and it was as if she was in a nightmare.

"My lord, that's how it happened." Shen Yueran kowtowed and said, "The people's daughter begs the adults to find out the truth of the matter, and return Li Xinyi's innocence, Yu Ziqiang's innocence, and Xiaoying's innocence." Xiao Ying is still so young, there must be someone behind her back, and the folk girl begged the adults to find out the person behind her and rescue Xiao Ying. ”

Wei Yi picked up the portrait and fell into deep thought.

Shen Yueran has never been to the scene of the murder, nor has she seen Li Xinyi's death, all her inferences are based on subjective feelings.

When she heard that he had painted a portrait of the murderer, she had an impression of the person in the painting.

When she saw Yu Xiaoying's greedy eating and vicious behavior, she naturally linked Yu Xiaoying with the murderer in the painting.

He could think that she was completely subjective, because she had no other evidence except for seeing what Yu Xiaoying did to Wu Zhaorong.

But at the same time, he can also think that she is simply approaching the essence of the murder.

It is precisely because she knows nothing that she can react most directly to human nature.

And the nature of murder is precisely human beings, whether a person will kill someone, whether he will be killed, how he will kill, how he will be killed, all depends on the character of the person.

- That's right, character.

He finally understood what was disturbing him.

Yu Ziqiang's character.

Yu Zi is strong, poor, and cowardly, how can such a person impulsively kill people because of a momentary anger?

But if he hadn't killed him, how can you explain that he left eight footprints at the scene of the murder?

Unless-

Wei Yi picked up the pen and ink on the side, pondered for a moment, and quickly drew a few strokes in the blank space of the drawing paper.

After finishing painting, he picked up the drawing paper and handed it to Shen Yueran.

Shen Yueran took the drawing paper, only to see Wei Yi redraw two figures, one was a thin and strong adult man, and the other was a little girl with a fierce eye.

Shen Yueran didn't seem to understand, "What the big man means is-"

Wei Yi thought she had understood what he meant, and bowed slightly.

The adult man is Yu Ziqiang, and the little girl is Yu Xiaoying.

No wonder he always felt that there were many contradictions when trying to portray the murderer's appearance.

If there is not one murderer, but two, then all the contradictions can be easily solved.

One kills viciously, one calmly cleans up the scene, one greedily plunders the gains, and the other reluctantly repents.

Shen Yueran continued, "Was this man who instigated Xiao Ying? ”

Wei Yi was petrified instantly, crying and laughing.

It's a good thing for women to have a stronger intuition than men, and sometimes it can help them get past the tedious rational analysis and get to the essence of the problem. However, if your intuition is too strong, you are prone to prejudice. is like the woman in front of her, even if she sees Yu Xiaoying's vicious behavior with her own eyes, she doesn't want to believe it, and still thinks that Yu Xiaoying is just a child who doesn't know the world.

"Lord Wei means that these two people worked together to commit the crime!" Zhang Wenxing, who was on the side, finally found an opportunity to speak, and proudly saw the stitches.

"Come on, Yu Xiaoying is wanted in the whole city, once you find a trace, you will be arrested immediately!" Zhang Wenxing ordered.

"Wait." Wei Yi shouted in a deep voice.

He put his hands behind his back and said loudly, "Let Yu Ziqiang go immediately." ”
