Zhan Yan said: "Judging from the fact that the Xuanyi people let go of the shopkeeper Zhao, what do you think?" ”

Yin Seventeen said: "Either the Xuanyi people didn't have the idea of killing people, or the Xuanyi people knew the Zhao shopkeeper, and he didn't want to hurt the Zhao shopkeeper." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Then they can start with the people around Zhao's shopkeeper and see if they can find anything abnormal.

Yin Seventeen thought of this on the way back to Hongsha County, but at that time, she was anxious to know the results of Zhanyan's investigation of the origin of the purple sandalwood Buddha beads.

I thought that after knowing the result, I would communicate with Zhan Yan again, and after clarifying the clues on both sides and launching the most likely direction, Yin Seventeen returned to the Longmen Inn in Huanda County and did a detailed investigation.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she and Hua Zilai returned to the county government of Hongsha County, they heard the second murder case in Qianguang Temple.

And the scene of this second murder made Yin Seventeen even more convinced of the doubts in her heart...... No, once doubt has taken shape, it is no longer just doubt, but a result!

Zhan Yan said: "Let Zilai go to Longmen Inn again, he is familiar with it over there, just check the people around Shopkeeper Zhao and let him go." ”

Yin Seventeen nodded, it could only be like this, after all, there was a second life in Qianguang Temple, and she wanted to find clues here.

Hua Zilai came back to check the origin of the two thick ropes, and saw that Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen were still standing in the place where Miss Ying died, and he immediately trotted over and said:

"Those two thick ropes have been determined, they belong to the utility room of Qianguang Temple!"

Zhan Yan said: "It seems that in addition to planning the murder, the murderer also used local materials. ”

Yin Seventeen recalled the scene when Miss Ying died: "Brother Zhan, Brother Hua, don't you think that Miss Ying's death posture is very similar to a scene." ”

When Hua Zilai heard Yin Seventeen say this, he began to think about the posture of Miss Ying who he saw kneeling at the temple gate and dying, and he muttered:

"Kneeling at the temple gate, his face was disguised as tears by the murderer with water......"

Hua Zilai didn't say any more, and Zhan Yan continued:

"Kneeling is equal to begging, tears are equal to crying, does the murderer want to tell us that the second deceased, Miss Ying, knelt in front of the temple gate and cried?"

Yin Seventeen said: "Yes, that's what I thought!" Let's think about the scene when the first deceased, Brandy, died......"

In the first scene, Bai Lanzhi died in the wing room of the chess courtyard, she was lying on the table and facing the door on the side, her eyes were closed, as if she was sleeping, the oil lamp lit on the table and the black cloth covering the two windows represented the night, the scene was like she was waiting for someone at night, but she fell asleep on the table after waiting for her.

In the second scene, Miss Ying died in front of the gate of Qianguang Temple, she knelt on her knees, her waist was straight to face the temple gate, with tears forged by the murderer on her face, there were Buddhas in the temple, and there were many monks, that scene was like she kneeling in front of the gate of Qianguang Temple, crying to the Buddha or monks in the temple and begging for something.

After listening to the scene represented by the two murders mentioned by Yin Seventeen, Zhan Yan fell into deep thought, and Hua Zilai looked at Yin Seventeen with some surprise:

"Really...... Is that so? ”

Yin Seventeen said: "Whether the murderer is reproducing the scenes that happened to Jiang Long'er one after another remains to be confirmed by our next investigation." ”

Zhan Yan groaned: "There is nothing impossible about what Seventeen said, so one by one, the scene of these two murders may be just as Seventeen said, what the murderer wants to express are those two scenes, and in these two scenes, it can be seen from the clothes that the murderer specially changed for the two deceased when they died, and the protagonist in these two scenes represents only one from beginning to end!" ”

That's right, and this person may be Jiang Long'er.

Hua Zilai listened to Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen link the two murders with many clues, and after piecing together the two scenes, and giving the protagonist represented in the two scenes the most likely candidate, he couldn't help but fall silent.

He thought about everything that had happened since Bai Lanzhi was killed.

The second crime scene has already been searched, and Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen decided to go to the letter room of the temple academy to have a look, which is the guest room where Miss Ying has been staying, and maybe they can find something there.

The two of them moved and began to walk towards the temple, Hua Zilai was too involved at first, and he didn't know that the two had left, and after walking a few steps, Yin Seventeen saw that Hua Zilai didn't follow, so he called him, and he followed the two.

After entering the gate of the temple, the flower looked at the temple walls on both sides of the temple, and remembered something:

"That's right! Just now, when I went to check the origin of the two thick ropes, I passed by the guest courtyard and inadvertently saw the courtyard wall at the end of the academy, guess what I saw? ”

Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen stopped when they heard this, and looked at Hua Zilai suspiciously.

Hua Zilai didn't say anything, but let the two guess, Yin Seventeen thought about it and said:

"Found another purple sandalwood Buddha bead inlaid in the courtyard wall?"

Zhan Yan also had this conjecture, and when he heard Yin Seventeen say his words, he quietly watched Hua Zilai and waited for an answer.

Hua Zilai saw Zhan Yan staring at him tightly, and he also knew that Zhan Yan must be the same conjecture as Yin Seventeen, he suddenly felt very boring, lost his interest in showmanship, and took out a purple sandalwood Buddha bead from his arms:

"No, this is it!"

Hua Zilai was depressed, how did Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen let him guess, he didn't guess it, he let the two of them guess, why did the two of them have a gesture of ease?

Yin Seventeen took it and took a closer look: "It's exactly the same as the first purple sandalwood Buddha bead." ”

Zhan Yan also took the Buddha beads from Yin Seventeen's hand and looked at it: "Well, it's true, let's go to the academy to have a look." ”

The two walked in the direction of the guest house again, and as soon as Hua Zilai followed, he said:

"Come, you go to the Longmen Inn in Huanlin County again, and check the people around Zhao's shopkeeper, whether it is relatives or friends, don't miss a single one!"

After listening to this, Hua Zilai asked why, but before Zhanyan could explain, he thought of the reason again:

"What do you suspect that Xuanyi man has to do with Shopkeeper Zhao?"

Zhan Yan said: "Maybe there is, maybe not, you go and check." ”

Hua Zilai nodded and said, "Then I'll go now?" ”

Zhanyan said yes, and Hua Zilai turned around and walked out of the gate of Qianguang Temple.

Zhan Yan put away the second purple sandalwood Buddha bead in his hand and put it together with the first light sandalwood Buddha bead wrapped in a handkerchief in his arms.

Yin Qiqi looked at the lilac handkerchief that Zhanyan put back into his arms after wrapping two purple sandalwood Buddha beads, and asked hesitantly:

"This veil...... It won't be the one that covered the Miao word skin last time, right? ”

Zhan Yan glanced at Yin Seventeen and was silent.

Yin Qiqi felt that this glance was quite meaningful, and she couldn't help but laugh again:

"Haha! Of course not...... Right? ”

Zhan Yan didn't glance at Yin Seventeen again, he turned around and left.

Yin Seventeen hurriedly followed, muttering in his heart that the first big head hunt in Hongsha County was strange!

I don't know if she muttered in her heart and muttered it, anyway, when she finished muttering, Zhan Yan suddenly stopped her pace again, so that the bridge of Yin Seventeen's nose that followed him almost collided with his hard back.

Fortunately, Yin Seventeen stopped in time: "What, what's wrong?" ”

Zhan Yan didn't reply: "Last time, you said that the handkerchief of the Miao character meat can't be used, let me throw it away, and then what else did you say, do you remember?" ”

What was said?

Yin Seventeen was stunned and tried to think.

Zhan Yan finally glanced back at her again, and then Yin Seventeen seemed to see a little contempt and a little ...... Lose?

What to despise her?

What is he missing?

It's a pity that Zhan Yan didn't give her an answer, and after a final glance at Yin Seventeen, he walked straight in the direction of the guest house, walking very quickly without looking back.

Yin Seventeen was stunned in place for a long time, and then hurriedly trotted to follow, until she caught up with Zhanyan and followed him to the backyard of the temple, she finally remembered something.

Instantly, she was a little embarrassed and couldn't open her mouth.

When approaching the guest house, Yin Seventeen mustered up the courage to run in front of Zhan Yan, and after blocking his way so that he had to stop, he looked at her, and she smiled and confessed:

"What's that...... Brother Zhan! I really didn't mean to forget that...... I was wrong! ”

When Yin Seventeen walked straight to the gate of the courtyard where she saw the guest house from afar, she finally recalled a scene fragment about the lilac handkerchief in the past - at that time, she was very disgusted with Zhanyan's lilac handkerchief wrapped in Miao Zi skin, so she proposed to let Zhanyan throw it away, Zhanyan didn't say anything after hearing it, only raised her eyebrows to look at her, she thought he was asking her what happened after losing the veil? So she said in passing, after he threw it away, she would buy him a new and identical handkerchief!

When recalling this fragment, Yin Seventeen almost wanted to cry without tears.

At that time, she blurted out, and she didn't want to pay the bill afterwards, but somehow in the end, Widow Miao's case was closed, and she forgot about it.

Seeing that Yin Seventeen was sincerely repentant, Zhanyan also decided not to embarrass her, and only said:

"After the last case was closed, I also knew that you had been bothered by the pattern behind it, so you forgot about it, in fact, I don't blame you."

Didn't blame her?

So what happened to the eyes that despised her for her bad memory and slightly lost just now?

Yin Qiqi vomited in her heart, and when she heard Zhan Yan finally mention the pattern behind her to her head-on, the bright smile on her face instantly disappeared:

"Brother Zhan, about that pattern...... Do you know anything else? ”

Zhan Yan looked at her, his eyes were deep and like bones in his throat.

He didn't answer immediately, and when Yin Seventeen was about to jump to his feet, Zhan Yan finally replied:

"Although I don't blame you for forgetting to buy a handkerchief, but since you sincerely repent, I will give you a chance to repent, and when the case of Qianguang Temple is over, you will buy an identical handkerchief for me, and I lost the handkerchief that was wrapped in Miao Zipi."

That is to say, the handkerchief with two purple sandalwood beads in his arms now was newly bought.

Yin Seventeen nodded and said, "Oh! ”

Zhan Yan said again: "Based on the punishment of forgetting the promise you made, this time you have to buy three handkerchiefs for me." ”

Yin Seventeen was dumbfounded: "What? ”

Zhan Yan raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "If you have an opinion, then ten." ”

Three of a kind?

Ten of a kind?

Even though Yin Seventeen hadn't fully come back to his senses, he was shocked by this divine turn and reacted subconsciously:

"No, no, no! I'm okay with that! ”

Zhan Yan crossed Yin Seventeen with satisfaction, and then smiled with satisfaction when Yin Seventeen couldn't see the expression on his face.

Yin Seventeen thought about buying three or three, and then remembered that the material of Zhanyan's lilac cloth seemed to be very good, and the last time she used it to wipe the rain on her face, she felt very light and soft, and she didn't know which kind of high-quality material it was, and when she really wanted to buy it, she had to ask Zhanyan where she bought it.

When they arrived at the courtyard wall at the end of the academy, Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen saw two small recessed holes side by side on the courtyard wall, neither high nor low, just perpendicular to Yin Seventeen's line of sight standing.

The seventeen shades are about 160 centimeters, the position of the two purple sandalwood Buddha beads is about 150 centimeters, and the courtyard wall is one foot high.

This is among the courtyard walls, which belong to the high courtyard walls.

Some of the courtyard walls are low, but they are only a little more than half a foot high.

Yin Seventeen looked carefully at the two small dimples that seemed to have differences, and affirmed:

"When the last murder happened, we couldn't be sure whether this Buddha bead was inserted by the murderer, but this time it can be determined 100%!"

Zhan Yan said: "I just don't know why the murderer did this? If a Buddhist bead represents the occurrence of a murder, is the murderer just for the record? ”

Yin Seventeen said: "If so, then will there be a murder next?" ”

Zhan Yan didn't answer, and Yin Seventeen also felt silent.

Of course, the two of them don't want this to happen again, but neither of them can give a negative answer with certainty.

Xiao Zhi had been crying bitterly since she saw the tragedy of Miss Ying's death early in the morning, until she fainted from crying, and then asked Zhan Yan to help her back to the wing room to rest.

And because the letter wing room has now become another place where some clues can be found, Xiao Zhi asked the official to help him to rest in the loyal wing room next to the letter wing.

When Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen arrived at the Zhong Xiang room, Xiao Zhi had not woken up, so the two of them exited the Zhong Xiang room and then entered the letter wing room next door.

The furnishings in the letter room are exactly the same as when Yin Seventeen came and Wu Wei came, probably except for the absence of Miss Ying, a temporary pilgrim, there is basically no change.

After inspecting the letter room for a quarter of an hour, neither Zhan Yan nor Yin Seventeen found any suspicious or useful clues, and Xiao Zhi had not yet come to his senses, and the two of them could not ask Miss Ying anything about her before she died.

Yin Qiqi suddenly remembered Wuwei, and only then did she think that since Miss Ying's accident, she had not seen Wuwei yet.

Zhan Yan had already thought of it, and sent a servant to ask the monks in the temple.

It is also difficult to hold the name of the monk, he is responsible for the monks of Qianguang Temple to go to the hall, receive visitors, and deal with all the contact affairs between the monks and laymen.

It is difficult to say that Wuwei went out of the temple to the county early yesterday morning, and went to buy it with Yifan, who was responsible for purchasing the items in the temple.

Yifan is the Dharma name, he is the treasurer monk of Qianguang Temple, who is responsible for the storage of clothes and bowls, ritual utensils, grain, melons and fruits and other food in the temple, and manages the warehouse, assists the monks in the prison, and takes care of the finances of the whole temple.
