After Lu Jin's reminder, everyone found that the damage of the two sacks was really inappropriate, and Zhao Jie was even more ashamed: "It's too negligent in my humble position, and I even omitted such an obvious flaw." ”

"It's no wonder you, there aren't many of us Jinyi who really know how to investigate cases." Lu Zhen smiled, and then pointed to the sack and said: "Just looking at the damage on these sacks, it can be inferred that they are not broken by falling from above, but after rubbing against the ground." Like this......" he lifted the sack and struck an inclined position.

Everyone nodded again and again: "What the governor said is that it seems that there is indeed something strange here." ”

"It's not just that, it's also these ropes." Lu Zhen tapped the broken ropes that were pressed under the sack and scattered around: "Do you have any clues?" ”

"This ......" Tang Lian only glanced at it a few times, and then saw the problem: "Part of the section of these ropes is very smooth, not like it was broken by itself, but like it was cut by a sharp weapon." ”

Lu Zhen nodded with satisfaction: "That's right." If my prediction is correct, the collapse that buried Xu Tongzhou's life to death was not an accident at all, but a trap deliberately set by someone. As he spoke, he beckoned a few brocade guards to restack the sacks as he wished.

Under the joint action of these people, a simple, half-human-high bun appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Everyone only took a few closer looks, and then they saw a middle doorway. The seemingly stable bun mountain is on the side, so the force is insufficient, as long as the top moves, the bottom will collapse by itself.

And as one person was ordered to cut half of the rope holding the sack, it looked even more unstable. Lu Zhen immediately stretched out a hand and pushed it gently, and the pile of sacks collapsed in response, and the sacks below retreated, although they were not really broken, but there was some damage.

This time, he didn't need to explain in detail, everyone already understood: "It turned out that someone had already set up such a mechanism in this warehouse, which made Xu Tongzhou, who came to check, be buried alive to death!" ”

"That's right, the other party is really a good means, so calculating!" Lu Zhen snorted, but he was a little apprehensive in his heart. In the two cases, the murderer's methods are very exquisite, which shows the other party's meticulous thinking and exquisite design. Such a murderer must also be very cautious, and it is not easy to find and take him down.

Moreover, did the other party go to great lengths to commit such a murder just to kill such two inconsequential people? Lu Zhen always felt that there was something more dangerous hidden behind these two cases.

"My lord, there is still something unclear about the humble position. It seems that this mechanism has to be pushed by external forces to work, but there is obviously no trace of outsiders entering and exiting this warehouse, so what happened to Xu Tongzhou? Zhao Jie asked with some confusion.

"The key to this is the half-cut rope." Lu Zhen picked up the rope and said: "So only one side was cut by a knife, in order to control the time when it broke, so that the already unreliable Baoshan could collapse without external force!" ”

"I see, this murderer is really calculating." Zhao Jie said with a sigh. And Tang Lian on the side has his own opinion: "But when he does this, he will show flaws again." The murderer was naturally on these two days

Someone who has entered this granary must be someone who knows Xu Tongzhou's daily habits. ”

Lu Zhen nodded in agreement: "What you said is right, this technique seems to be exquisite, but in fact, it is far from being clean and neat to kill people with a knife." After doing so many things, as long as we see some flaws, we will naturally be able to follow the vine and take people down. And this is actually not difficult for us Jinyiwei. ”

Yes, if the other party did all this and concealed the person who investigated the case as before, it may be able to play a role in hiding his identity if he was determined to be an accident. But now, once his methods are discovered, everything he has done has become an important clue to him.

"I understand the humble position, I will follow these clues to investigate, this person must have nothing to hide!" Zhao Jie perked up, hurriedly said a word, and hurried away.

Lu Jin naturally won't stop him, which is also something he wants to see, but there are still some doubts in his heart that have not been solved - logically speaking, with the brains and strategies of the murderers in these two games, it should not be difficult to see the limitations of doing more and more wrong. In that case, why did he use such sophisticated means to kill people?

If the previous time was to make a big deal and cause panic among the people, then what is the purpose of this homicide that is easy to be regarded as an accident? Lu Jin believes that as long as he can figure this out, some of the things behind this case will slowly surface.

It's a pity that there are still too few relevant clues on hand, and it is still a little difficult to figure out the true intentions of the other party. Fortunately, there is still a clue to be traced, and that person has also thrown himself into the Terracotta Division, as long as he rushes over now and interrogates him strictly, he can dig out some inside information.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhen took people out of Mixing, planning to rush back to the Zhenfu Division. Thinking about it, Yao Gan should have already sent people out of the Nancheng Terracotta Division.

But just as he turned over and got on his horse, a lieutenant hurried over, and as soon as he saw his own governor, he hurriedly dismounted, and hurriedly reported: "Governor, go out ...... Something happened! ”

"What's wrong?" Lu Jin's heart jumped suddenly, and he hurriedly asked.

"The suspect who was detained in the Terracotta Division was actually killed in the side hall of the Terracotta Division before we even arrived...... Yao Baihu specially asked the little one to come to report. The man reported with a worried face.

Lu Zhen was stunned for a moment, but then he was a little relieved: "Sure enough, the other party is one step faster than us, obviously knowing that we will find out about this person, so did he kill people first?" By the way, what kind of strange death method is he? Because of the strange death of the deceased in the first two cases, he habitually thought that this person must also die a strange death. Even if he was dismantled, it wouldn't be a surprise.

But the person who reported the news still made Lu Zhen feel a burst of surprise: "He died very ordinary, he was nailed to death on the chair with a quick knife." ”

"Is that so?" Lu Zhen couldn't keep up with the murderer's rhythm, so he could only say: "Let's go, go to the Terracotta Division to check the situation first." As soon as he said that, he quickly rushed out, and his subordinates naturally followed closely when they saw this.

After less than a meal, Lu Zhen had already come to the yamen of the Nancheng Terracotta Division. At this time, there was a mess here, and there were more than a dozen soldiers guarding the door, not allowing anyone to approach at will. apparently

, a murder suddenly occurred in the Terracotta Division, and the impact on the yamen was still quite large.

However, these people didn't dare to stop Jinyiwei, especially after Lu Zhen revealed his identity, the people who were guarding there could only rush in quickly to report the news, but they didn't even dare to block it. As for the reason, this is naturally Lu Jin's identity here, whether it is the former squire of the military department or the current commander of the Jinyi Guard, he is not a small soldier and horse division who dares to be rude; And it's because they're a little weak-hearted. Because this person has a lot to do with the case that Jinyiwei is investigating, and now he suddenly died in their hands, the soldiers and horses are naturally worried that Jinyiwei will pick up the plane.

Therefore, when Zhao Qian, the commander of the Nancheng Soldiers and Horses Division, came out to greet Lu Jin, he almost knelt down on one knee to salute his subordinates. Fortunately, Lu Jin's reaction was fast enough, so he stepped forward and helped him up: "Lord Zhao doesn't have to be like this...... By the way, where is the deceased now? Can it be moved? "It's serious, and he can't care about greetings anymore.

The other party also understood this, and didn't say anything, and immediately led the way in person, leading Lu Zhen and them to the scene of the murder. It was a side hall in the second hall, which was considered to be the place where guests were entertained on weekdays, and when he arrived at the door, he could see a figure sitting upright in the chair next to him, with a steel knife pierced in his neck, nailing his whole person to the back of the chair.

Sure enough, as the messenger said, his death was indeed much simpler than that of the first two deceased. If it weren't for the fact that these cases were related, he would have thought that it was another murderer.

"This soldier and horse is full of people, and he was easily killed by the murderer?" Lu Zhen frowned and said softly.

When Zhao Gan heard this, he was terrified: "The subordinate is guilty, the defense in this Soldiers and Horses Division is indeed not rigorous enough, and he actually let the thieves get his hands on it...... But who would have thought that someone would be bold enough to commit murder in the Soldiers and Horses Division!"

"What do you think?" Lu Zhen glanced back at Tang Liandao.

Tang Lian, like him, did not rush into the hall, but stood at the door and squinted for a while, and only then did he say: "If the humble position is expected, the murderer should be standing in front of the door and suddenly flew out with a knife and nailed the person to the chair." The speed of this knife was extremely fast, or the other party was not on guard, anyway, he couldn't even dodge the action, and he was nailed to the chair. ”

Lu Zhen nodded, then walked in the door, came to the corpse and looked at it carefully for a while before saying, "Your judgment should not be wrong, this person was indeed killed without any struggle." Tell me, why is he so defenseless? If someone suddenly flashed a knife in front of you, would you not react? ”

"From the point of view of humble position, it is either because the murderer is an acquaintance of the deceased, or the murderer is a person who can reassure the deceased, such as the tolerance of the officials in this division of soldiers and horses." Tang Lian thought about it for a moment and then expressed his judgment. As soon as he said this, Zhao Qian and the other people in the Soldiers and Horses Division were even more panicked: "This ...... How is this possible? Are you suspecting us of stealing? ”

"That's really the most plausible explanation." Lu Zhen ignored the other party's shouting of grievances, and just said: "Why don't Lord Zhao summon the soldiers and horses to wait and see if there is anyone missing." If it is really as we said, it was the people here who committed the murder, maybe the murderer is no longer in the yamen because of his weak heart! ”
