Meng Tianchu sneered: "Shopkeeper He, since Mrs. Qin entered this temple, your eyes have never left the pearl necklace around Mrs. Qin's neck, and when you were eating in the fasting room at night, you also specially asked Mrs. Qin about the value of the pearl necklace." I saw you staring at that necklace, and your eyes were rounder than the pearls! Don't tell me you haven't had a heartbeat. When Mrs. Qin's body was found, the necklace around her neck was gone. Can you tell me why? ”

He Wang opened his mouth and blushed and said, "I...... It's just that the necklace around her neck is ...... good-looking, I haven't had a bad intention, besides, there are so many things in the world that make me happy, do I have to kill for money? ”

"I haven't been sure that you stole it for money, but you have such a motive for committing the crime, and there is no alibi, and you are suspected of a major crime, so before the case is investigated, if you dare to talk nonsense, I will tie you up, understand?"

The so-called power is the truth, He Wang can't beat Meng Tianchu, and he can't stand it, so no one helps him at all, the so-called heroes don't eat the losses in front of him, He Wang had to nod, but he still muttered in his mouth: "Anyway, it's not the ...... I killed, if you want to talk about suspicion...... Everybody here has it! ”

"You're right!" Meng Tianchu said, "Mrs. Qin was hanged in this ancient temple in the deep mountains, and there is no one in this ancient temple for dozens of miles, so the murderer is among the ten of us here!" I, my wife Xia Fengyi, maid Feiyan, domestic servant Lao He Tou, Qin Yiyun Qin shopkeeper, maid Jiwen, Zhang Zhenyu Zhang Gongzi, He Wanghe shopkeeper, as well as abbot Xuanyin and little master Xusong. There are ten suspects in total! ”

The little monk said with a shudder: "There is one more ......"

Meng Tianchu turned his head to look at him strangely: "Who else?" ”

"The one holding the baby in the pine forest behind the temple...... Female ghost ......"

As soon as he finished saying this, a gust of wind blew into the main hall, blowing the oil lamps flickering, flickering and dimming. Xia Fengyi, Feiyan and Ji Wen, the three women, were already so frightened that their faces were pale, and they shrank into a ball.

Zhang Zhenyu, a scholar sitting at the door, hurriedly got up and closed the two doors of the main hall.

Abbot Xuanyin said the Buddha's name: "Xusong, Meng Gongzi is investigating the case, don't talk nonsense." ”

Xusong hurriedly agreed, but muttered, "I'm telling the truth, it must have been the female ghost who did it." ”

Meng Tianchu said: "There are no ghosts in the world at all, and the theory of ghosts is probably just a rumor deliberately spread by someone with a heart, so that they can fish in troubled waters and blame ghosts!" ”

The abbot said the Buddha's name: "Meng Gongzi, what you said was aimed at the poor monks?" ”

Meng Tianchu said: "The abbot master doesn't have to sit down, he just talks about things. ”

Qin Yiyun said: "Master Meng, you better start the investigation, don't pay too much attention to the words of others." ”

Meng Tianchu said with a smile: "Okay, to solve this case, we must first determine the time of death of the victim, because this time is very short, even from the last time I saw the deceased to now, it will only be half an hour, because the time is very short, there is no way to determine the accurate time of death according to the phenomenon of the corpse, only a time period can be launched, the end point is Ji Wen found the body in the toilet, and the starting point is the time when the last person saw the deceased." Who was the last to see the dead? It should be Ji Wen, right? Ji Wen, you first tell me about the last time you saw your grandmother. ”

Ji Wen was already a little frightened, and said: "When I came back from the fasting room, I sat in the room with my grandmother and talked, and my grandmother seemed to be sullen, sitting there talking and talking for a while. About half an hour or so, grandma said that he was sleepy and wanted to sleep, so I served grandma to sleep, and then I also went back to the room to sleep, by the way, when I went out, I happened to meet Meng Gongzi, and I also helped you light the lamp. ”

Meng Tianchu thought for a while, and suddenly turned his head and asked Qin Yiyun: "Shopkeeper Qin, where were you at that time?" ”

"Me?" Qin Yiyun, as a family member of the victim, was suddenly asked this question by Meng Tianchu, who was in charge of solving the case, and only reacted after a while, and said with a smile: "Of course I'm in the room, I'm talking to my wife and Ji Wen and the three of us in the room." ”

"Then when I passed by the room later, why did I only see two projections?"

"...... when you pass by the room?"

Ji Wen said: "Master, what Young Master Meng said is that grandma wants to sleep, I left the room and came out, just when I met Young Master Meng and Mrs. Meng when they went to the toilet." ”

"Oh......" Qin Yiyun nodded, "Then I didn't pay attention, I was very sleepy at the time, I was napping while listening to them, and I didn't pay attention, hehe, Meng Gongzi only saw two projections?" His wife died, and he was very sad just now, but he couldn't see it at the moment, and he laughed dryly twice when he spoke.

Meng Tianchu thought to himself, your mother's death may not be a good thing for you, no wonder you are in a good mood, and nodded: "Yes, there are only two projections on the window!" He looked at Qin Yiyun with his eyes.

"Then hell, I'm obviously in the house, how can there only be two projections?"

Ji Wen said: "Master, you are leaning on the head of the bed, and your projection can't be printed on the window." ”

Qin Yiyun said: "Yes? I didn't really notice, I was so sleepy! ”

Meng Tianchu asked again, "What happened later?" When Mrs. Zun slept, did you sleep with her? ”

"Sleep! However, not long after I fell asleep, I felt a stomachache - it must be that the green vegetables and tofu are not clean, this broken temple, everything is broken! At that time, my wife was already asleep, so I got up gently to go to the wool room, but I remembered that there was a ghost baby crying behind the temple, and I was afraid, so I ran to the pine forest in front of the temple. When I came back after I was done, I didn't feel sleepy, so I ran to Ji Wen's room to talk to her, right? Ji Wen. ”

"Well, yes. At that time, Sister Feiyan was next door and hadn't come back yet. Ji Wen's face flushed a little.

Meng Tianchu thought to himself, these two must be hugging and cheating in the room, and said: "That's strange, when you found the body, you seemed to have come in from outside the temple, and I asked you to come over and drink at that time." ”

Qin Yiyun said: "Hehe, that's right, I talked to Ji Wen, my stomach hurt again, I wanted to go to the wool house again, and I ran to the pine forest in front of the temple to make it easier." When you called me, I was just in time to come back. ”
