Lunch time.

This Shu Tianxiang seems to be a person who can enjoy it, his cooking skills are quite good, and the food he makes is full of color, flavor, and flavor.

Interestingly, Shu Tianxiang didn't seem to have much appetite, so after eating a few bites, he put down his chopsticks, stood up and said, "Everyone, you eat slowly, I'm full!" ”

Wang Shanlin raised his head and asked as if he was a little surprised: "Mr. Shu, you just eat so much, can you be full?" ”

"Hehe, I've always had a small appetite."

Shu Tianxiang grinned, his eyes swept the green plants in the living room, and then walked over, picked up the kettle on the ground and poured it.

"Mr. Shu, are you still watering flowers on this rainy day?" Jiang Yi couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, put it inside, it won't rain water, just pour it on your hands." Shu Tianxiang explained.

"You guys eat, I'll go out for convenience!"

Putting down the bowl, the man in the trench coat stood up and walked outside.

"I feel that this guy is mysterious, not like a good person, do you think he will be a murderer?" Wang Shanlin looked at the back of the man in the windbreaker and whispered.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Ye Lan frowned and said coldly.

"Where am I talking nonsense!"

Before Wang Shanlin's words landed, a burst of stunned shouts sounded in everyone's ears.

Then the man in the trench coat pushed the door in rudely and said with a little panic: "Oh no! ”

"Aren't you going to pee? What's wrong again? Wang Shanlin asked disappreciatively.

"Outside...... There was a corpse outside, as if it had floated from the upper reaches of the river, right at the door! The man in the trench coat pointed out the door and said breathlessly, with a nervous and apprehensive look on his face.

"What?"

Hearing this, everyone in the hall stood up in unison, and there was a corpse outside!

"Let's go, let's see!"

Chu Mufeng took the brunt of the stride and walked out, while the rest of the people followed, and they didn't have the heart to eat.

Interestingly, when they came out, the rain outside miraculously stopped.

Outside the gates.

A male corpse lay on the cold, damp ground.

He was dressed in a very simple linen garment, without any wounds on his body, his face was pale, his lips were pale, and his clothes had no signs of being untied, and he was neatly dressed.

Chu Mufeng squatted down and looked at it carefully.

The deceased wore a jade wrench on his right thumb and a Guanyin jade pendant around his neck, but neither of these valuable things was taken away.

"God, who is this? What's going on? How did you die here? Wang Shanlin's face was a little pale, and he asked in a panic.

"Maybe it's drowning!"

Shu Tianxiang said thoughtfully on the side: "This thing is not unusual at all, in our place, as long as it is water, people who go up the mountain are easy to fall into the water if they are not careful." ”

"My house is located right around the corner of the river, so if you drown, the body will float here."

"Oh, is that so? Scared the hell out of me! Wang Shanlin patted his chest and gasped.

"Humph, coward!" Ye Lan raised her eyebrows with contempt.

"Who do you say? I'm not cowardly, I'm cautious, I tell you, ...... in this mountain."

"Shut up!"

Chu Mufeng glared at him with a cold look and shouted.

He had long been tired of this talkative Wang Shanlin, and began to mumble vigorously from the moment they met, as if others would not know that he could speak well.

Need to do this? You're ridiculous like a pampering clown.

"You ......"

"If you can shut up, I'll be able to check it out in peace."

Chu Mufeng unbuttoned the deceased's clothes as he spoke, and then said: "You all come and see, I dare to say that he definitely did not drown, but was strangled to death." ”

"As for whether it came from the river, I'm sure it wasn't!"

"Not drowned? Why was it strangled to death? Wang Shanlin couldn't help asking.

"You're blind, you don't see any bruises on your neck!" didn't ask Chu Mufeng to speak, Jiang Yi replied directly.

"Then Mr. Su, why didn't you say that it didn't float from the river?" Ye Lan also asked curiously.

Chu Mufeng smiled at the corner of his mouth, pointed to the deceased and said: "You see, if he was strangled to death and thrown into the water and rushed over, his body would definitely be swelled, even if the time is short, the corpse that has been soaked in the water is different from the one that has not been soaked." ”

"But if you look at him, he doesn't say that he is swollen and whitened at all. So I dare say that this body did not come from the river. ”

"And you can see, this small river looks past us, there are no paths on either side at all, it flows out of the canyon in the mountain peak, so it also excludes the speculation that the time is short and it will not swell."

"If he is thrown into the water, he must be from upstream, and if he comes from upstream, the time will certainly not be too short."

"Besides, the necklace around his neck has nothing to do with it, if it is said that it floats down in such a bumpy river, can it not change at all? Is that not quite right, you say? ”

"And you mean to say?" Ye Lan asked with great interest.

"I mean, that so-called murderer is hiding among us!" After Chu Mufeng glanced at the past with burning eyes, he said in a firm tone.

After these words were spoken, everyone became nervous.

"Not really, right? You say that the murderer is hiding among us, what reason do you have to say that? If so, who is that person? Wang Shanlin looked at the people around him nervously and asked.

"Is it right among us?" Jiang Yi also agreed.

"That's right!"

Chu Mufeng said very calmly: "Actually, I have long suspected this murderer, and when I saw this corpse, I could already be sure that the murderer had been hiding among us, from beginning to end, just because it was better hidden, let us ignore it!" ”

"Who's the murderer?" The man in the trench coat couldn't help but ask.

"Before I say who the murderer is, I want to say one thing first, which is the true identity of this deceased!" Chu Mufeng pointed to the corpse on the ground, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly.

"Real identity? What identity? Wang Shanlin asked like a frightened bird.

"If I'm not mistaken, he should be the owner of this courtyard! And Mr. Shu, you are not the master here at all, you are the murderer! Chu Mufeng's fingers suddenly pointed over, and his eyes were as cold as a knife.

"Mr. Shu, this ...... How is this possible? Wang Shanlin exclaimed in surprise.

What about Shu Tianxiang?

The moment he heard this, he was very indignant, stared at Chu Mufeng, and said unceremoniously: "Mr. Su, what is your intention when you say this?" I kindly took you to shelter from the rain in my house, and it turned out well, because of such an accidental corpse, you call me a murderer. ”

"It's ridiculous! If you frame me like this, I'm sorry, please leave, please all of you, and no one will come again! ”

"Is it up to you whether we come or not? Is this mountain yours? Besides, the suspicion of murder on your body has not been cleared now, so why should you threaten us? Mr. Su, please keep talking! Ye Lan said with a little disdain.

"Good!"

Chu Mufeng looked at everyone, and they all subconsciously kept a certain distance from Shu Tianxiang, so he was not afraid of what he would do!

If this guy really dares to turn his face and make a move, Chu Mufeng has absolute confidence that he can make him kneel with one shot!

If you want to die, I'll convince you to die.

"The reason why I say he is the owner of this courtyard house is because of the shoes on his feet, do you see? He was wearing a pair of homely cloth shoes. If he said that he was here to play like us, how could he possibly wear such shoes? ”

"The second is the jade wrench finger in his hand and the jade pendant on his neck, which shows that he is a wealthy person, do you say that such a person will casually wear cloth shoes and go out to play in the mountains and rivers?"

When he said this, Chu Mufeng set his eyes on Shu Tianxiang, and said playfully: "Actually, the whole thing is not complicated, everyone can distinguish it as long as they think about it carefully." ”

"This gentleman in a trench coat is the last, Ye Xi and I are the second batch to come, and Wang Shanlin, you and Miss Ye Lan are the first to come, right?"

"Yes!" Several people bowed slightly.

"Then the question is, Wang Shanlin and Miss Ye Lan, how can you be 100% sure that this Mr. Shu Tianxiang who opened the door for you is the owner of this courtyard?"

The moment Chu Mufeng asked this, everyone's faces changed drastically.

Shu Tianxiang showed a strange smile, and didn't seem to care about Chu Mufeng's words.

"Of course, if it weren't for this corpse, I wouldn't be so quick to confirm your identity, but I have suspicions."

"But who let this body suddenly come to light? Or maybe you should have chosen to throw it out of your own initiative, right? Why would you do that, let me guess. ”

"I guess I saw that the rain outside was about to stop, and this gentleman in a trench coat said when he came in that the police officers in the town were already gathering, so you are scared and want to scare us with this corpse, hoping that we will run away quickly, right?" Chu Mufeng said unhurriedly.

"But that's not right! Mr. Su, if he wants to leave, he can leave at any time! Wang Shanlin seemed to suddenly be able to use his brain, and asked with a frown.

"Well, you're right, he can leave at any time, but don't you think it's strange if he just disappears?"

"We were already guessing who the murderer was, but at this juncture, Shu Tianxiang, as the owner, suddenly disappeared, so do you need to think about it? Isn't it clear who the murderer is, or who is most suspected? ”

Chu Mufeng said lightly, I can't figure out such a thing, you didn't grow up with milk when you were a child, right?

Wang Shanlin touched his head a little embarrassed.

"Without any evidence, why do you say that I am the murderer, is it just your words?" Shu Tianxiang was not only not afraid on his face, but asked with interest.

At this moment, his eyes were bloodshot, and the whole person had an inexplicable excitement.

"You're the murderer!"

Chu Mufeng raised his hand and said loudly: "You should have just killed the master here not long ago, Wang Shanlin and Ye Lan came to visit, so you hid his corpse and then swaggered to play his role." ”

"You may have wanted to kill the two of them, but what you didn't expect was that we came over later, and there were more and more people sheltering from the rain, so you didn't have a chance to do it!"

"That's nonsense!"

Shu Tianxiang cleared his throat and said as if full of grievances: "I'm really blind, kindly let people come to take shelter from the rain, but I met a person like you, who is black and white, and who doesn't distinguish between right and wrong." ”

"Everything you say now is just speculation, but what I can say is that mine is indeed the owner of this place, this is mine, and I have no way to defend you if you say so."

"Okay, okay, I don't want to say anything more to you, now that the rain has stopped, let's go, I'm going back to rest!" Shu Tianxiang waved his hand.

"You can't defend yourself, but I have proof." Chu Mufeng said playfully with a playful look in his eyes.

"Mr. Su, what evidence do you have?" Ye Lan asked.

"Naturally, it's watering!" Chu Mufeng made a watering motion.

"Watering? What do you mean? Ye Lan was full of doubts.

Chu Mufeng smiled: "You should still remember when he just ate, after he finished eating, he went to water the green plants, right?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Wang Shanlin nodded.

"He may have done it unconsciously, and at that time, my companion Miss Ye also asked, should you water it on such a rainy day? Do you all remember that? ”

"Remember, but is there a problem with this?" Wang Shanlin asked suspiciously.

"Of course there is a problem!"

Chu Mufeng's eyes changed, and he said categorically: "If those plants are real, he will naturally have no problem doing this, but if those plants are fake, do you think it makes sense for him to do this?" ”

"Fake? Impossible, right? Wait, I'll take a look! ”

After that, Wang Shanlin turned around and ran to the hall, and soon came out with a leaf, and said with a strange expression: "Hey, it's really fake, I can make such a green plant so vivid, I didn't even see it." ”

"yes, if this is fake, do you need to water it in one more move?!"

Bang!

Before Wang Shanlin finished speaking, Shu Tianxiang smashed the teacup in his hand towards Chu Mufeng, and pounced on Ye Lan, who was closest to him, like a hungry wolf.

But before he could rush in front of Ye Lan, Chu Mufeng, who had been on guard, rushed forward, flew up, and kicked him out directly.

Before he could stand up, Chu Mufeng chased after him and kicked him again, kicking him like a shrimp and hunching his body in pain, clutching his stomach and wailing in pain.

"Hmph, what's the matter, my true face has been exposed, and I can't help but do it?" Looking coldly at the murderer on the ground who was cloaked in a veil of hypocrisy, Chu Mufeng said coldly.

"Damn, I'm going to kill you! Kill you! ”

Shu Tianxiang, no, it should be said that Yan Huiru was an injured beast and whimpered.

"Ahh Ye Lan, who was stunned, hurriedly ran away with hindsight.

"You...... Are you really a murderer? Wang Shanlin stood stupidly in place.

"He's the murderer!" The man in the trench coat shouted.

"Hehe, that's right, I killed the people, you are lucky, you actually got together, otherwise, I will kill you all one by one, you all have to die, you all have to die!" Yan Hui spat out blood and said with a hideous face.

He hates it so much, he hates that he doesn't have enough time, he hates that he doesn't have a gun, and he hates that Chu Mufeng can actually see through his disguise!

"Quick, hurry up and find a rope to tie him up!" Jiang Yi shouted urgently.

"No rope, I've got handcuffs!"

As he spoke, the man in the trench coat took out a pair of handcuffs from behind his back, and then stepped forward and clasped Yan Hui's hands behind his back, and cuffed them with a click, this thing is much more reliable than a rope.

"You're a police officer?" Wang Shanlin blinked, this dramatic scene was a world of difference from his previous guess.

"What now?" Jiang Yi looked at Chu Mufeng and asked.

"Aren't there ready-made police officers here? Just listen to his arrangement. ”

Since the police officer has already come forward in this matter, after subduing the real murderer, he is also happy to see it, and he doesn't have to compete with this little police officer for this credit.

"Let's lock him in the living room first, don't worry, our people will be here soon!"

The man in the windbreaker looked at Wang Shanlin as he spoke: "Come over and take a hand, and carry him in with me!" ”

"Good!"

in the living room.

When the embarrassed Yan Hui was thrown in the corner, the man in the windbreaker ignored Wang Shanlin and Ye Lan, but looked at Chu Mufeng, and said with great interest: "Mr. Su, did you already see that I was a police officer?" ”

"Oh, why do you say that?" Chu Mufeng asked rhetorically with interest.

"Feel!"

The man in the trench coat said calmly: "I can't tell what is going on, anyway, I just feel that you already know my true identity." ”

"And I'm curious to know, how do you know these greenery are fake? I don't think you've ever touched those plants, right? Or is your eyesight very good, but our eyesight is not bad, why can't you see it? ”

"Yes, Mr. Su, why are you so sure?" Ye Lan also said with a puzzled face.

"You guys have a lot of questions!"

Chu Mufeng pursed his lips, then looked at the man in the windbreaker: "Okay, before answering your question, can you tell me your name and identity?" ”

"Yes, I am a police officer at the Donghua Branch of Beiping City, and my surname is Li Weimin. Because I met the two injured colleagues in the town, I came directly to help investigate. It's just that I never expected to meet a master like you, can you tell me what your identity is? Li Weimin asked with admiration on his face.

"My identity?"

Chu Mufeng smiled indifferently, his identity is not a secret, there is nothing that cannot be said, but there is no need to be too high-profile.

"Well, here's my ID!"

Chu Mufeng said and handed over the document from his pocket.

The moment he saw it, Li Weimin's face showed a shocked look, and he looked at it in disbelief, excited and excited.

"You are ......"

"Well, you know it!"

Chu Mufeng waved his hand, took the documents and put them away, and then said slowly: "Now I'll explain them to you one by one." ”

"The reason I noticed that the greenery was fake was because the greenery was growing too vigorously and was a little too green. Maybe you don't care about one thing, what this Shu Tianxiang said before, well, let's call him this name for the time being! ”

He said that he only came for a summer vacation and would not usually come. So the question is, since you don't come here often, can the greenery here grow so well? Unless he arranges for a servant to take care of him regularly, but just now in this house, we didn't see a servant! ”

"Well, it seems to be the case, otherwise even if you put a few pots in it, it seems to be normal." Ye Lan nodded and said.

"Hmm. It's just a suspicion, but I didn't think at once that these bonsai were fake, but the painting on the wall reminded me that it wasn't strange that these plants were fake. ”

"What about Mr. Nishiyama's painting?" Wang Shanlin was a little stunned.

"That's right, it's the painting!"

Chu Mufeng raised his finger and pointed to the painting and said, "Do you think that painting is real?" You're wrong, the painting is fake, or it should be a copy of a high imitation. ”

"The original is supposed to be Mr. Nishiyama's, but this one is a fake. Think about it, since the owner will hang a copy of the painting on the wall, isn't it normal to put a few fake pots of green plants here? ”

After Chu Mufeng said this, everyone suddenly realized.

"Besides, I haven't touched those green plants, but she did!"

Chu Mufeng smiled at Jiang Yi, who had been cooperating with his performance, and said, "She just touched those green plants, and after knowing that they were fake, I can be completely sure of my inference." ”

"What I didn't expect was that this murderer was really ruthless enough to come here and kill the owner unceremoniously. You must know that this owner was only inadvertently encountered by him, he had no grudges in the past and no hatred in the near future, he actually made such a ruthless move, it is simply inferior to a beast! ”

"He's going to get a fair trial!" Ye Lan squinted at Yan Hui fiercely and said.

"A fair trial?"

Chu Mufeng smiled noncommittally, does he need any fair trial to deal with such a murderer?

Killing pays for life, it's that simple truth.

"You're really a detective, now I have new material, can I interview you?" Ye Lan took out a pen and paper from the leather bag he was carrying, looked at Chu Mufeng's eyes and asked with joy.

"I'm sorry, Miss Ye, I don't have anything to interview!"

Chu Mufeng declined this kind of interview without hesitation, and then said to Jiang Yi: "Since it's no longer raining, let's go out and continue to walk around, there is Police Officer Li here, it should be able to handle it, and there will be no more accidents." ”

"Okay!"

Of course Jiang Yi will not refuse, although it has rained and the road is a little muddy, but the key is to see who comes out to play, with Chu Mufeng by his side, the scenery is very beautiful.

Besides, Yan Qingshan after the rain should have a different artistic conception.

"Officer, who the hell is he?" Ye Lan, who was rejected, approached Li Weimin's side and asked.

"I'm sorry!"

Since Chu Mufeng was reluctant to reveal it, Li Weimin naturally wouldn't say much with a big mouth.

If you can accidentally meet someone you admire, you can't leave a bad impression on the other party.

"Hmph, stingy ghost, if you don't say it, don't say it, I'll find out sooner or later." Ye Lan curled her lips and looked expectantly.

When Wang Shanlin saw her last picture, he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart: Alas, I'm out of play, and the limelight was all stolen by that kid!
