There is no such thing as absolute murder in a closed room!

Lin Zhao, who has read many detective novels, is well aware of this fact, so there must be a misunderstanding somewhere!

Now it seems that it is understandable that Kaifeng Mansion can't find out why, and it must have fallen into the mindset of killing people in a closed room. Now I must jump out, look for clues, analyze all the reasonable and unreasonable, and of course, the most important thing is to find out the cause of Xiao Jie's death?

Lin Zhao walked back and forth in the room, carefully observing every corner, and stood at the window looking into the distance. Indeed, as Chai Xiao said, at such a long distance, there is no possibility of flying knives to kill. The most important thing is the motive for killing, who has the motive? What is the motivation?

The scars on the corpse were very clear, the dagger pierced the neck, almost killing with a single knife, who had such a deep hatred with Xiao Jie, that he wanted to kill people in such a cruel way! Lin Zhao stood at the window and gestured, the knife stabbed in, the throat was ruptured, and the carotid artery was ruptured, and blood would naturally spurt wildly......

Lin Zhao saw the blood stains on the ground, and then his eyes stayed on the white screen on the side, and he couldn't help but wonder, how could this be? Unless the dagger is stabbed from this direction, it's impossible! If so...... There seems to be only one plausible explanation!

But how did he do it? Another question mark came to mind.

Wang Yan and Chai Ruone watched Lin Zhao walk around the room, constantly pondering, their eyes full of doubts...... Sometimes he nodded, sometimes he shook his head, and they looked at each other, and I don't know what he was thinking?

There were many people walking around the house, and the carpet creaked, and there was water squeezing out of it...... After Lin Zhao saw it, he couldn't help but wonder, it was just a basin of water that had been overturned, and it had been three or four days, why hadn't it been dried yet? No, remembering the details of the meaning on the dagger during the inspection, Lin Zhao's heart suddenly moved......

Immediately, his eyes were attracted by a pot of withered orchids in the room, and he couldn't say why, a detective's intuition made Lin Zhao feel that something was wrong......

In my previous life, I watched detectives, martial arts, and even palace fighting romance dramas that played an important role, and many thoughts came to mind, outlining a possibility, but it still needed someone to verify it, and then turned around and went out without saying a word.

Wang Yan and Chai Ruone and the others were very surprised, so they had to hurry up!

Lin Zhao went straight to the ice cellar first, and a servant in charge of the place was called out and asked, "Did the Khitans ask for ice?" ”

"Khitans?" The servant was silent for a long time, then nodded: "Yes, the Khitan people need some ice cubes every time, saying that they are drinking wine bought from the Gaochang generation......

"That's right!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Wang Yan's eyes, and Chai Ruone hurriedly asked, "What's right?" ”

Lin Zhao figured out a lot of things, but he didn't explain them, and asked instead, "Can you find a pharmacologist...... Uh, find a healer who understands pharmacology, I have something to ask......"

"If that's the case, why don't you go to the Imperial Doctor's Department and ask a Imperial Doctor to come......" Wang Yan thought to himself, with the Holy Decree in hand, some things should be easy!

Chai Ruone shook his head and said, "No need, the imperial doctor may not have a sister in the business......

"Sister Ling?"

Lin Zhao and Wang Yan both looked at Chai Ruone in surprise.

Chai Ruone said with a smile: "Min Yan once studied medicine with Zhu Yaolang, a famous doctor in Luoyang, and is good at the art of female yellow......"

"But that Zhu Yaolang, who is well-known in the Central Plains and went to Nanyang to find miracle medicines?" Wang Yan had heard of this, and judging from his reaction, this person must be excellent in medical skills, so his disciple Chai Minyan was naturally not bad. I really didn't expect Chai Minyan, who is known as the first beauty in Bianjing, to be a medical woman......

"Is it convenient to ask Sister Ling for advice?" Lin Zhao asked hesitantly, a few days ago in Tieta Lake, the beauty was not seen through the curtain, and it seemed to be dignified and polite, I don't know if the Chai family has strict etiquette and education.

Chai Ruone shook his head and said: "Don't worry about this, this case is related to my uncle, and even the entire family, as a child of the Chai family, I should do my best." If Brother Dongyang can find out about this case, it would be good if his uncle would not be implicated, and it would be an honor for my little sister to help......"

"In that case, it's the best!"

"I'll inform my little sister and let her come to Honglu Temple......" Chai Ruone was just about to leave, but Wang Yan stopped: "Let Miss Chai and a woman come out and show up, we are really a little reluctant not to go, if it is convenient, let's still visit!" ”

"It's good!" Chai Ruone readily agreed. It seems that Lin Zhao already has some eyebrows, if the little sister can help, it will be a great thing for the Chai family to close the case as soon as possible.

Lin Zhao instructed the servants of Kaifeng Mansion to bring the prescriptions, the records of the ingredients, the pot of orchids found in the room, and even the remaining water stains......

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Chai Mansion is located on the Wuzhang River, next to the side gate is a small pier, no wonder his brother and sister last time from the Tieta Lake directly by boat.

As soon as he entered the door, Chai Yong, the father of Chai Ruone, greeted him, and his brother Chai Xiao had already sent someone to greet him, knowing that the two distinguished guests were of great benefit to the family. What's more, it was the emperor who received the holy decree, so he behaved very politely!

"Welcome to the two sons, the humble house is really full of brilliance!"

Lin Zhao and Wang Yan both bowed their hands and said, "You're polite, you're polite!" ”

Because of the sensitive identity of the royal family of the previous dynasty, the Chai family has always been very low-key. The courtyard is not very regulated, nor does it appear luxurious. But the pavilions, rockeries and small ponds, trees and bonsai are arranged just right, quite elegant, the so-called ingenuity is exactly like this, which shows the taste of the owner.

The matter is urgent, Lin Zhao and Wang Yan came to a flower hall under the guidance of Chai Ruone, and saw a graceful back from a distance, is Chai Beauty?

"Min Yan! Wang Gongzi and Lin Gongzi are here! Chai Ruone greeted from afar, and the last time a few people were by the Iron Tower Lake, they could be regarded as having a relationship, even if it was just a glimpse. Now it is said that the stakes are very high, and there is something to do with the danger of the Chai family's Chang'an, so there is no way to avoid suspicion. It is precisely because of this that Lin Wang and the two were fortunate to have a close look at the flower and moon appearance of the first beauty in Bianjing.

It's a pity that Chai Minyan didn't give them this opportunity, wearing an elegant purple dress, which has a chic grace and elegance. The jade steps moved lightly, the posture was graceful, and the demeanor was elegant, but it was a pity that a face that might have competed with the immortals was covered by a light veil. Everyone is beautiful and sees a foreign man, and it is completely understandable that the light yarn is negative.

Through a layer of light veil, you can probably see the beauty's red lips and the contours of her cheeks, a pair of water-like eyes are determined, gentle, and elegant, exuding a fairy temperament, which makes people can't help but be a little intoxicated.

"I've seen Miss Chai!" Lin Zhao and Wang Yan were both stunned and saluted together.

Chai Minyan was also a salute, and said softly: "I have seen the two sons, and I heard that Lin Gongzi is outstanding in learning, and his poetry and masterpieces are all of the best grades...... The Jiangnan Restaurant also seems to be quite chic...... "Obviously, she seems to be more interested in Lin Zhao, and inadvertently snubbed Wang Yan!"

Lin Zhao didn't expect him to be so famous, and said with a smile: "The girl praised it falsely...... If you have time, welcome to go to Jiangnanju to sit down! ”

"Good!" Chai Minyan nodded and said, "That Miss Meng who 'sniffed the green plums' is also there, right?" ”

Belch...... Lin Zhao was really a little surprised this time, but he didn't know that there was a scholar from Jiang Ning, who had already introduced the previous song "Dotting Lips" to Bianjing. After the first news of the famous line, he had already made plans to ask Lin Zhao for words.

Unexpectedly, Chai Minyan's attention was all focused on Lin Zhao, and Wang Yan's eyes involuntarily felt a little lost, but it disappeared in a flash.

Lin Zhao smiled: "The girl is smiling!" But now I came to bother, but there are a few things to ask! ”

"What's the matter? As long as Min Yan can help, he should be effective! ”

Lin Zhao presented the prescriptions, recipes, and orchids and water stains found in the room that Xiao Jie had taken, and said, "I heard that Miss Chai is good at medicine and pharmacy, please help me take a look at these things!" ”

Xiao Jie has symptoms of poisoning in his body, and this problem is a bit troublesome to Lin Zhao, so he hopes to find out as soon as possible, in order to prove it.

After just one glance, the remaining water stains were put again, Chai Minyan's eyes fell on the pot of orchids that had withered, it was fine at first, but when it was time to play with the stamens, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly, and everyone had a bad premonition. Then he looked at the prescriptions and recipes carefully, and his face became more and more solemn.

"Minyan, what did you find?"

Chai Minyan said in a deep voice: "Orchids are ordinary, but some of them are coated in the stamens, if you look right, it should be the flower juice of Aoki Zi, which has a slight toxin...... The smell is covered by the scent of orchids, which is not easy to detect, but it is not strong, and the poisoning is very slow, and the symptoms are mild...... This prescription and recipe can be ......"

"What's wrong?" Chai Ruone couldn't help but be surprised, these were all arranged by his uncle Chai Xiao, and if something went wrong, he would inevitably be responsible.

"There is nothing wrong with the prescription and the recipe itself, the herbs are all effective in dispelling wind and cold, but one of the spicy flowers, as well as the purslane in the recipe...... When these things are mixed together, it will cause Aoki Shi's toxin to attack, especially after drinking a lot of alcohol, it will attack faster...... Mild cases are sluggish and weak in their limbs, and severe ones faint or even die......"

Chai Ruone suddenly said: "Could it be that Xiao Jie was poisoned because of this?" ”

"Not bad!" Lin Zhao nodded and said, "There are signs of poisoning in his body, but he can't find the reason...... I wondered if it could be a toxin produced by the combination of several non-toxic things, so I came to Miss Chai for verification. ”

"Who poisoned it? And to use such troublesome methods......" Chai Ronne said incomprehensible.

"But Xiao Jie was pierced through the neck and died!" Wang Yan emphasized the cause of Xiao Jie's death and said, "Is there a solution to this matter?" Otherwise, I still can't reply to the ...... of Liao"

Lin Zhao, who was already in his chest, said with a smile: "This is easy to explain! ”

ps: Several poisoned medicinal materials are nonsense, take it seriously, and the plot needs to be ha! In addition, it's a new week soon, and you book friends will lose a few recommendation votes after reading it, thank you!
