Chapter XXXII: Case Reasoning

The living room was silent, and even a needle could be heard falling to the ground, and everyone snooped on each other as if they were thieves, thinking that they had a handle in each other's hands.

Li Guolou smiled dumbly and said, "Since the criminal refuses to take the initiative to speak out, I will expose this conspiracy." The die-hard elements who do not repent will eventually be revealed. ”

Li Guolou paused, and then glanced at the crowd, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but it made people feel cold. Then he said: "The death of Wei Wenshao, the master of the Wei family, last night, was too strange, he died at the door of his bedroom, such a big house, the walls are high and there are many people, and it is close to the street, what kind of criminal would find this kind of place to commit crimes?" Man Baye didn't marry Xie Xiuzhu back then, it's been two or three years, this daylily is also cold, and he is still thinking about killing his rival Wei Wenshao, why did he go earlier. If it is to find the second grandmother Xie Xiuzhu to cheat, it is not reasonable, Wei Wenshao is coming last night, Xie Xiuzhu knows, and Xiaoqin also knows this. So why did the eighth master come in the middle of the night? ”

Wei Xiaoliu muttered: "Anyway, I traveled all over the world, and I just came, and I saw it with my own eyes." ”

In the echo of the other people in the Wei Mansion, they expressed their opinions, that is, they were full of wandering ghosts and ghosts, and they were killing themselves, and there was no possibility of overturning the case.

Li Guolou squinted at Wei Xiaoliu and said, "Wei Xiaoliu, have you really seen Man Youli?" If it's true, then you must have seen someone else. Because you told a lie, you were not in your bedroom at the time of the crime, but in the yard, you tell me the truth! ”

The last intimidation made Wei Xiaoliu tremble, looked at Xie Xiuzhu opposite, gritted his teeth and said: "No, no, really no, I think I'm really in my own room, but I haven't been lying in bed yet, I won money playing cards, and I can't sleep." ”

Li Guolou sighed: "Wei Xiaoliu, you are too dishonest, you still have to tell lies, you must know that you have to cover up the crime, and you must also be assigned to the army." ”

Wei Xiaoliu clenched his hands and put them on his thighs, bowing his head and not saying a word.

Li Guolou looked at Wei Xiaoliu, and couldn't help but feel helpless in his heart, this person was destined to be a tragic figure and not worthy of pity.

Li Guolou raised his head and said, "Okay!" Since Wei Xiaoliu didn't say it, then I will continue to talk about the Eighth Master, what kind of situation will the Eighth Master come in the middle of the night on the third watch, which is the most reasonable? After a short pause, he said: "That is, someone deliberately told Man Youli to come at that time, stealing incense and stealing jade, how many people can bear it?" Xiaoqin, do you say yes? ”

Xiaoqin's face turned white, and she hurriedly said: "Xiao Lizi, you can't slander me, how can you take it seriously when you are full of lies." I definitely didn't call Man You to come to Wei Mansion at night, what he said was a lie. It's all fake! Second grandma, you have to believe me. ”

Li Guolou didn't listen to Xiaoqin's complaint, but turned to Xie Xiuzhu and said, "Second grandma, don't you think it's strange? You are a singer who was born, and you have long been accustomed to going to bed late and getting up late, and last night you heard that your husband Wei Wenshao was coming, dressed up beautifully and waiting for him to come back. Why do you suddenly feel sleepy? Is this the same as your usual habits? ”

Xie Xiuzhu is also an old Jianghu, hearing this, she couldn't help but push away the two hands that Xiaoqin grabbed her arm, looked up at Li Guolou, and said: "I usually don't go to bed so early, I don't know what happened last night, I saw them play a few decks of cards, so I dozed off, and then went back to the bedroom, reclined for a while, and wanted to wait for the master to come back." I didn't expect to sleep until midnight before I was woken up, and now that I think about it, it's really strange. ”

Li Guolou replied: "Actually, this is also very easy to explain, someone has given you medicine in your tea, this medicine is the meditation medicine used by Westerners, the amount is not much, and you won't feel strange when you put it in tea." Besides, the second grandmother, you like to drink chrysanthemum tea, and if someone adds a little more sugar, you won't mention it. ”

Xie Xiuzhu's face changed abruptly, she rose from the ground, pointed at Xiaoqin and scolded bitterly, and said, "It's you!" You killed the master, and I blamed you for putting too much sugar in the tea last night! You scumbag, you dare to murder your master, you are a scumbag, why didn't I see that you are such a personΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"

Xie Xiuzhu has the ability to scold the street, which stunned everyone, slashed her head and face with foul language, sprayed at Xiaoqin, and wanted to play Xiaoqin, but Ma Dequan grabbed Xie Xiuzhu's two arms, and finally pressed Xie Xiuzhu back on the chair.

And Xiaoqin knelt on the wooden floor, desperately denied that she had done such a thing, kowtowed and cried: "Second grandma, I definitely didn't kill the master, I'm not this kind of person." It's all full of travel and collusion with Xiao Lizi to frame me, the old man and the second grandmother are so good to me, I am a human being, how can I do something that is not as good as a pig and a dog. ”

Li Guolou waited for Xiaoqin to finish his defense, and said: "Xiaoqin, the people here, I originally thought that Xie Xiuzhu was the best at pretending, but it turned out to be you." The reason why you betrayed your second grandmother is because someone promised to give you the position of equal wife, and you already have an affair with him, right? Xu Xiaohu, why don't you say a word, pretend to be deaf and dumb, can you get away with it? ”

Xu Xiaohu, who was originally sitting with his head bowed, finally raised his head and said, "Xiaoqin, don't be afraid, Xiao Lizi is joking." The murderers have been caught, and they have nothing to do with us. Man Youli is now a mad dog, whoever kills will bite indiscriminately, Lord Bao is the blue sky, and will not let us be wronged. ”

Xu Xiaohu was really calm and composed, and a sentence made Xiaoqin, who was kneeling on the ground, no longer argue, but slowly stood up, her eyes became firm, and she seemed to have the temperament of being out of the mud without staining.

Li Guolou applauded Xu Xiaohu in his heart, exactly the same as he thought, Xu Xiaohu is a diehard, there is no evidence, it is impossible to make this person bow his head and admit his guilt. Xu Xiaohu also cheered Xiaoqin up, and immediately pulled back the momentum that was at a disadvantage. Now Xu Xiaohu and Xiaoqin are just letting them clamp sticks and hit the board, and they will not admit to the reluctance, let alone the big crime of killing the master Wei Wenshao.

Li Guolou raised his voice and said: "Okay! Since neither of them pleaded guilty to it, let me continue to make it up and see if the result is the same as what I said. ”

The bazi sitting on the couch couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "Little Lizi, I believe in you, continue to talk to me." ”

Li Guolou didn't look back, he blushed a little, he pretended to be a public servant, and pulled his friends in to see the scene of the killing, after all, he was not an upright person.

Li Guolou said: "In fact, this case, someone has been planning for a long time, waiting for this opportunity. First of all, it starts with someone not closing the door, as if they are lazy, but in fact, they are secretly killing them. Then the opportunity came, someone knew when Wei Wenshao would return home? It was about twelve o'clock in the evening, and I was talking about Western time, can you all understand it? ”

Ai Hai listened carefully and said, "Little Lizi, what you said is very good, we can all understand it." ”

Li Guolou was very satisfied with the surrounding atmosphere, and continued: "Then someone asked Man Youli to come to the Wei Mansion on time at one o'clock in the middle of the night, and also told Man Youli that the door of the south room of the second grandmother was not locked. Usually, the second grandmother remembers the good of the eighth master and is ready to repay the favor. How could he let go of this opportunity if he was the best among people like Man Baye, of course he went to the appointment on time. Xu Xiaohu, you see that people are always so accurate. Is it? ”

Xu Xiaohu bowed his head and was silent, it was better to be silent than ten thousand words, whatever Li Guolou said, there was no evidence, and in the end he still won.

Li Guolou watched Xu Xiaohu's every move and exclaimed: "Xu Xiaohu, I didn't misunderstand you at all, you are really too scheming, and you have calculated all the people in the Wei Mansion." You plotted to seize the Wei family's property and kill your master with your own hands, if you were going to be skinned in the previous dynasty, now you are sentenced to be cut in half, and it is not a disadvantage to you. ”

Everyone talked about it and exchanged their heads with each other, Xu Xiaohu finally couldn't help it, and shouted: "It's nonsense, I won't admit it if I kill it." ”

Li Guolou sneered and said: "Why did the eldest grandmother go back to her parents' house, isn't there joy?" Congratulations to Xu Xiaohu, you are a father. ”

Now everyone could no longer sit still, and they all stood up and shouted in shock. Eyes focused on Xu Xiaohu, and the murderer's conspiracy was undoubtedly revealed.

Xu Xiaohu wanted to take out the handkerchief in his sleeve, but he didn't touch it, so he was so anxious that he directly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve.

hurriedly defended: "Why did the eldest grandmother go back to her parents' house, how do I know?" The rest of the story is even more ridiculous, I haven't done such an unbearable thing to kill. ”

Li Guolou pressed down with both hands, asked everyone to sit down, and said, "Grandma is not here, I won't talk about her for the time being." I went on to talk about the case, there are some strange things tonight, that is, why Xiaoqin jumped around, and ran to the mahjong room in the east several times, who would believe that Xiaoqin took a fancy to Xu Biao, even the stupid Wei Xiaoqi also knew Xiaoqin, and there was another deep meaning. Xiaoqin kept entering the mahjong room, just to report to Xu Xiaohu and tell Xu Xiaohu when Wei Wenshao would enter the house. Then before about twelve o'clock, Xiaoqin entered the mahjong room again, which was to tell Xu Xiaohu that outside the door of the Wei Mansion, she had seen Wei Wenshao coming back. Then Xu Xiaohu immediately rushed out, saying that he had a stomachache and asked Xu Biao to play cards for him. What happened next, Xu Xiaohu, do you want me to continue making it up? ”

Xu Xiaohu's hoarse voice said: "I'm too lazy to explain, I'll avenge Lord Bao directly, Xiao Lizi, you are a murderer, the thief shouts to catch the thief, the truth will always be revealed, and you will be scolded by the world." ”

Li Guolou looked at Xu Xiaohu, the unrepentant murderer, who had reached the end of his rope, and everyone had already believed in his reasoning about the case. Next, he has to deal a fatal blow to the murderer, because Xu Xiaohu has a fatal loophole that he has found.
