Chapter 300: Suspicion Behind the Scenes
"Don't talk so much nonsense with him, just see if he has what we're looking for."
When Duan Lang said that he had grabbed the third disciple, he opened his palm and found that only the part of his palm holding the sword had calluses, and there were no obvious calluses on his index finger, thumb and middle finger.
Could it be that the murderer they were looking for was not the third disciple?
Anyway, their plan to invite you into the urn tonight was in vain.
"Since you are not the murderer of the fifth senior brother, then why do you come to the room in the middle of the night to destroy the evidence? Could it be that you are an accomplice to the murderer? "During the day, these three disciples were eager to put the blame on them, and now it seems that this person is very suspicious.
"What are you talking nonsense? I just heard that there is key evidence in this room that can find the murderer, and I want to find it out to determine the identity of the murderer. The third disciple looked disdainful, on the contrary, he looked at the three of them with some suspicion, "I am very suspicious of you now, using this kind of trick to deceive and deceive." Do you want to catch a scapegoat to blame? ”
Unexpectedly, as soon as they turned their heads, the basin was buckled on their heads again.
"Third Senior Brother, since you are not a murderer, then there are some things that we don't need to hide from you." Shangguan Yinling took the third senior brother to the coffin of the fifth disciple, brushed away the hair in the crown of the fifth disciple's hair, and showed the small hematoma on the top of the fifth disciple's head to the third disciple, "I didn't expect you to find the wound on the top of the fifth senior brother's head, so you must also be puzzled, what killed the fifth senior brother, and now we have found that this tiny hematoma on the top of the fifth senior brother's head is the real reason for the death of the fifth senior brother." ”
"Such a small hematoma can kill people, what about you?" The expressions of the three disciples were full of suspicion, originally he couldn't trust these outsiders, but now they are sneaking around in the scripture room, not knowing what they are doing, it is very likely that they are destroying the evidence of the crime, so that they are completely dead without evidence, and they can't catch their handles.
"This tiny hematoma is a wound left by a sharp and tiny object piercing the head, and if we don't expect, the fifth senior brother's skull should have been pierced. This man wields only small weapons such as embroidery needles. We have only just confirmed that there must be calluses on his index finger and thumb left by the long-term use of this weapon, and there are no calluses on the index finger of the third senior brother, so we ruled out your suspicion. ”
Although they knew that these three disciples could not easily believe them, it was also their duty to tell the disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect the details of the murderer's crime, even if they couldn't find the real murderer, maybe the disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect would know who used this kind of weapon.
"You mean someone with a weapon similar to an embroidery needle. Piercing the head of the fifth junior brother is a little ridiculous. How strong a martial artist does this have to be to use an embroidery needle to kill someone? The third disciple was obviously reluctant to believe their speculations, and he was more willing to believe what he saw than to them.
"Third Senior Brother, if you still doubt us, please don't interfere, we will definitely catch the murderer within three days."
To put it mildly, the three disciples finally reluctantly believed them and left the scripture room.
"Senior brother, now the murderer must know that the clues left by these five senior brothers before their deaths are our traps, and they will definitely not be fooled, what should we do?"
At the moment, they were in an awkward situation, none of the people of the Xiaoyao Sect believed them, and in this strange sect, they wanted to investigate which of the disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect were clear. I'm afraid it's not that simple.
It is very likely that the death of the fifth senior brother was maliciously provoked and retaliated, but I heard that the fifth senior brother was diligent and respectful, and his personality was the gentlest of the several senior brothers. And why would anyone want to kill him?
"It's getting late, let's all go back to our rooms and rest, we have more important things to do tomorrow at breakfast."
The three of them went back to their rooms to rest, and the next morning, when the day was just dawn and all the disciples had not yet gotten up, they were already waiting in the dining hall.
The first to enter the dining hall was the senior brother of the Loose Sect.
The senior brother is now over thirty years old, and he is the oldest one in the entire Xiaoyao faction except for his uncles and uncles, and he is also very respected among these senior brothers.
"Senior brother, it's cold outside, come and drink a cup of hot ginger tea first." Lu Li saw that the senior brother was coming, and hurriedly held the hot ginger tea and sent it to the senior brother.
"Thank you, junior sister." The senior brother took the hot ginger tea and drank it cleanly, feeling refreshed.
"Senior brother, please take a seat." Duan Lang on the other side also laid out the futon of the senior brother, and the two of them waited for the senior brother to sit down, and some doglegs sat in front of the senior brother.
"Senior Brother, how is your relationship with Fifth Senior Brother usually? Do you know that among the senior brothers of our Carefree Sect, which senior brother has a conflict with the fifth senior brother? ”
Only then did the senior brother understand why these two people were so enthusiastic about him when they got up early in the morning.
However, even in order to solve the case and find out the person who killed Senior Brother Wu, he should cooperate.
"The fifth senior brother is the most gentle and soft-tempered person among our many senior brothers, and the senior brothers like to learn martial arts with him, I have been in the Xiaoyao faction for so many years, and I have never seen him blush with anyone, but he is just ......" The senior brother said and suddenly remembered an old thing. His expression changed slightly, but he still pressed this matter in his heart.
"Just what?"
"Nothing. I suddenly remembered that I had forgotten to take my sword. I'll go back to my room and get it. ”
After saying that, the senior brother hurriedly got up and left the dining hall. Looking at the back of the senior brother leaving, the three of them glanced at each other. It seems that these five senior brothers are in the free faction, and there are really other unknown things.
However, even the kindest and fair senior brother refused to say it, and I am afraid that among the other senior brothers, they would not be able to ask about it.
As soon as the senior brother left with his front foot, their little junior brother walked into the dining hall with his back foot.
"Why did Senior Brother leave in a hurry?" The little junior brother didn't feel that the atmosphere in the dining hall was a little weird, but he saw the senior brother leave in a hurry, and he didn't even have time to greet him, so he was a little puzzled, "Isn't it that you are in a hurry to go to the toilet?" ”
"Come on, little junior brother, please take a seat." Lu Li and Duan Lang hurriedly pulled the little junior brother into the seat, and the little junior brother was suddenly warmly received by the senior brother and sister, and he was quite uncomfortable, "Little junior brother, come and talk to the senior brothers and sisters, how is the relationship between the fifth senior brother and you on weekdays?" ”
"Fifth Senior Brother is naturally taking me very well."
