Qin Lin ruled out the "direct evidence" that Sai Yan died of homicide with a basilar skull fracture and a panda's eye signs, and the case seemed to have turned around and returned to the original point.

Was it suicide, accident, or homicide?

For the time being, it can only be said that there are certain possibilities.

In addition to the physical evidence, but also look at the human evidence, those monks and pilgrims who ran down from the Yongan Wanshou Pagoda were terrified to find that Liu Dudu of Jinyi Wei and Xu Zhangxing of Dongchang began to look at them with ill intentions.

Factory guard torture, the world knows, pity these people involved in the case, either the monks in the temple or the good men and women who came to the incense, where have they seen this battle? immediately shouted grievances one after another, and many people were even more frightened and collapsed to the ground.

"Wait!" Qin Lin suddenly spoke out to stop him.

This sound is slow, it is nothing to others, in the ears of these monks and pilgrims, it is really no less than the sound of heaven, and they all look at Qin Lin pitifully, and now only Qin Qingtian, who is like lightning, can save his life.

Liu Shouyou sneered: "Since General Qin can't judge the cause of death from the corpse and the scene, then of course the governor of Bendu has to interrogate the people involved, is it possible that you want to indulge the murderer?" ”

Xu Jue also disagreed with Qin Lin, and now that he can't find direct evidence, he has to find a way to pry open the mouths of the people involved.

"When Saiyan fell from the tower, he let out a miserable scream, and at that time, the official quickly rushed to the bottom of the tower, and it happened that there were many people looking down at the windows of each floor, and the official remembered their position clearly," Qin Lin said while pointing at several monks, and said calmly: "They were on the eighth floor at the time. ”

The good men and women also squeezed forward one by one, hoping that Qin Lin would remember the floor they were on.

Qin Lin did not disappoint them, and pointed out one by one: "This old man and two uncles are on the ninth floor, and the old woman and aunt are on the fifth floor......

It turned out that Qin Lin had a kind of shorthand skills that investigators could only master after special training, and he could quickly memorize a certain scene picture, when he ran to the bottom of the tower, he only glanced twice, and then he firmly remembered the people standing at the windows on each floor of the thirteen-story pagoda.

From Liu Shouyou, Xu Jue, to Zhang Zhao and Liu Sandao, they were all so shocked that their tongues were spitted out, and they secretly said with a terrible voice, Chief Qin's unforgettable ability, tsk!

Rao is surname Zhao Shizhen is unruly and extreme, and he has to admire when he sees this, and he said in his heart that General Jinyi Wei Qin is a young man, but he is not the kind of fortunate person who has wasted his fame, and he has excellent skills under his hands.

Finally, Qin Lin pointed his finger at the Mongols: "This official remembers very clearly, at that time, the eleventh layer was headed by this Gurgetaiji and several other Mongolian nobles, and the thirteenth layer was headed by Huang Taiji. ”

The old man on the ninth floor kept nodding: "That's right! The Mongols climbed the highest, and after falling to death, they rushed down from the top, and pushed the old man and me to a stumble, and look, the legs are still green......"

Huang Taiji was depressed, and there was really no way to deny it now.

Qin Lin smiled, arched his hand towards the old man, and said, "As for the twelfth floor where the deceased fell, the window on that floor is standing - you!" ”

I saw Qin Lin's fingers draw a circle in the air, and finally stopped on someone's face, and when everyone looked at it, it was the panicked Pull Hechi.

"No, no, no, it's not me," he shook his bare hands: "You, don't talk nonsense!" ”

The corners of Qin Lin's mouth curved slightly, revealing a mocking smile, and stared straight at Bahechi's eyes: "This official is definitely not mistaken, do you want this official to find evidence?" ”

Before Bahechi could deny it, Huang Taiji said in a low voice: "Maybe someone else saw it and quickly admitted it, just say that it was from the corner of the stairs on the thirteenth floor......"

Bahechi immediately changed his words, saying that he did appear at the window on the twelfth floor after Saiyan's death, but when Saiyan fell, he was going up the thirteenth floor of the stairs, and only after hearing the screams did he retreat to the window on the twelfth floor and poke his head out to look down.

Qin Lin sneered in his heart, secretly saying that you will see the opportunity quickly, otherwise you will find your fingerprints on the windowsill, and see how you can deny it?

All the Mongolian nobles were amazed and looked at Bahechi suspiciously.

"It won't be Bahe Chigan," Gulgetaiji shook his head and said with great certainty: "He and Saiyan have no grudges, and they didn't even know each other before they came to the Central Plains, how could they do such a thing?" Master Hanguan, don't wronged good people. ”

Qin Lin waved his hand: "Let's agree with Bahechi's statement for the time being, however, Saiyan fell from the twelfth floor, even if he kills, then the murderer can only run up, or run down, Huang Taiji, Gurge Taiji, have you seen any suspicious characters?" ”

Speaking of these, Qin Lin glanced at the Mongolian with a smile, and his smile was quite teasing.

The Mongolian nobles led by Huang Taiji were suddenly dumbfounded, as long as it was not a case done by a flying immortal, the murderers on the twelfth floor were either on the thirteenth floor or on the eleventh floor, but these two floors were all Mongolian tourists, and they really couldn't rely on others.

"No," Huang Taiji thought for a long time, and finally could only admit that no suspicious characters appeared.

"Governor Liu, now you can release all these unofficial people who are involved in the case, right?" Qin Lin smiled and asked for Liu Shouyou's opinion.

Liu Shou had a stinky expression on his face, and flicked his sleeves extremely depressed: "Let it go, let it go." ”

The monk and the people were overjoyed, and thanked Qin Lin for their kindness: "Qin Qingtian is really hanging high, if you don't know everything, I'm afraid we will ......."

Look at the face of Jinyi Wei Liu Dudu, the people didn't dare to say all the following words after all, but although they didn't say it explicitly, they didn't say anything, what is the difference between saying it and not saying it?

Liu Shouyou's expression was even more ugly, as if he had eaten.

It's just that in this way, Zhang Gongyu, Huang Jiashan, Zhao Shizhen and others wondered, how did Saiyan fall down and die? Combined with the previous confirmation that he once had a move to straddle the windowsill, then did he step up voluntarily and fell because of an accident, or was he coerced into doing so, and then the murderer retreated?

Judging by his words and appearances, Bahechi is very suspicious, and at least he is the most likely person to witness the truth of Saiyan's death, but he is one of the Mongolian envoys, and if he wants to arrest him and interrogate him severely, the Mongolian nobles led by Huang Taiji will definitely not agree, and even if they ask anything, it will be difficult to convince the public, which is not easy to do.

Everyone's eyes involuntarily turned to Qin Lin.

"Governor Liu, do you see?" Qin Lin arched his hand towards Liu Shou, deliberately modest.

Liu Dudu was so depressed that he thought that his ability was not as good as Qin Lin, and he reluctantly smiled: "Since General Qin Beizhen Fusi is in charge, it is good to be responsible for the end, and the governor of Bendu and the governor of Bendu still don't interfere." ”

Qin Lin was quick enough, and he waved at Zhang Whale, who had just eased up: "Gonggong Zhang is a close minister of the Son of Heaven and has a lot of knowledge, so you might as well preside over the overall situation?" ”

Zhang Whale was so frightened by the saw man's head that his soul was about to fall off, and he was just a little better at this time, and his face was ugly again when he heard this.

He came to accuse Qin Lin, wanting to use this major event to make Qin Lin unhappy, not to mention his personal vendetta, but also on the charge of poor protection, causing border troubles, and breaking the overall situation of the tribute.

But now that Qin Lin has perfectly explained the phenomenon of corpses, and reduced the possibility of his killing to a minimum, it seems that the charge of poor protection can no longer be settled.

Hearing that Qin Lin was going to throw this hot potato into his hands, Gonggong Zhang was so anxious that he shook his hand: "It's still General Qin who is in charge, our family lives in the inner court, and our knowledge is shallow, or will you judge the yin and the yang......"

As he spoke, Gonggong Zhang and Dudu Liu lowered their heads in unison and stretched out their hands: "General Qin, please, please!" ”

"Ha~ha~ha~ha~", Qin Lin looked up to the sky and laughed, so ashamed that Liu Shouyou and Zhang Whale were red-faced, and then he said: "Then, this official will be in charge." ”

In the world, there are probably only a few people in the world who can force the eunuch Zhang Whale and Liu Shou, the guard of the palm brocade clothes, to be so embarrassed, except for Qin Lin, there are only a handful.

Zhang Gongyu put his hand in his sleeve and quietly gave Qin Lin a thumbs up: Brother Qin is mighty, Brother Qin is rippling!

Qin Lin personally climbed to the twelfth floor of the Yongan Wanshou Tower, dipped his fingerprint brush in silver powder, and took the fresh fingerprints of two people on the windowsill, and left it alone with a few old fingerprints.

After comparison, one of these two fresh fingerprints belongs to the deceased, and the other belongs to Bahechi.

Outside the window, there were seven empty places where the bells should have been hung, and if such a big man fell, he would definitely smash the bells, and the copper bells that fell had already been found on the ground.

It seems that there are no particular clues here.

It's strange, why did Seyan straddle the windowsill, was it voluntary, or was it forced?

Qin Lin scratched his scalp, feeling a little nerve-wracking, if it was voluntary, he would still play such a dangerous game when he was such a big person? If he was forced, so many Mongolian nobles were on two floors up and down, he wouldn't have called for help? I remember that when I fell, I could hear the terrible roar from afar.

By the way, what the hell is he yelling at?

Qin Lin had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and found the Mongolian nobles to interrogate them separately, but the result was very disappointing to him, it turned out that Saiyan was just shouting for help.

It seems that we have to find more clues in this matter, Qin Lin frowned, got down the tower and said to Huang Taiji: "How about you and this official take a trip?" The corpse was left here, guarded by Liu Dudu and Xu Zhangxing......"

Sure enough, Huang Taiji shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, who knows what you're going to do?" What Liu Dudu and Xu Zhang's punishment are all from your gang, let's not be fooled by this, you have to go by yourself, we have to stay here. ”

Zhang Whale, Liu Shouyou and Xu Jue were shot while lying down, that is called crying without tears, and said in their hearts that we are really not in the same group as Qin Lin, the eldest prince, you can believe us once...... Of course it can't be, how does Huang Taiji know who is with whom? Those performances just now can be a double reed with Qin Lin.

Qin Lin's stomach was about to laugh and hurt, it was precisely this trick to divert the tiger from the mountain, and ordered the Jinyi officials to monitor all the Mongolian nobles led by Huang Taiji, and leave the corpse of Saiyan here, while he took people to leave temporarily.

"Quick, while those idiots are stupidly staying here, let's go to Longfu Temple and the Huitong Hall first to see what clues there are," Qin Lin instructed the brothers.

Yongan Wanshou Pagoda is only eight miles away from the city wall of Jingshi, and the fast horse quickly ran back to the city, ran to Longfu Temple with a smoke, and found the monk Yuantong.

Qin Lin invited him to sit down with a pleasant face, and then asked, "A few days ago, Huang Taiji and his group came to your temple, did you notice that guy named Saiyan?" Stout body, flat nose, flat face, black and yellow complexion...... He, Huang Taiji and the Grand Lama Deleng, do you have any special moves? ”

"The guy you are talking about, there is nothing special, just the hands and feet are not clean," Yuantong said angrily: "Since this group of Mongolians left, we have a copper incense burner here, and some pilgrims saw that the guy named Saiyan stole it, and the poor temple didn't dare to look for him, let's just count us unlucky, even the incense burner for the tribute has to be stolen, Amitabha Buddha ......"

What, as a Mongolian nobleman, Sai Yan actually stole things? Qin Lin was really taken aback, and he didn't think about it from beginning to end.

After thinking about it for a while, Qin Lin laughed, didn't we send people to keep an eye on Huang Taiji's gang all day long, the captains must have found something.

Soon found the lieutenant in charge of surveillance, and immediately found out, and the leader told Qin Lin with a smile: "Sir, there are a few people in that gang of Tartars who have unclean hands and feet, and they actually steal things everywhere, let's all take it as a joke......"

At first, Qin Lin thought that Saiyan was involved in the conspiracy of Huang Taiji, the Great Lama of Deleng, and the King of Welling, and for some reason he was exterminated, or pushed down by Huang Taiji's own group, or forced to commit suicide.

Who knew that this was the case, and it was also Qin Lin's negligence, and he only asked the captains in charge of monitoring to report the other party's conspiracy, all of which were considered from the aspects of politics and war, and the captains saw Sai Yan stealing things, and they only took it as a joke and did not report to him.

How could such a prominent Yan Qianhu steal things? In fact, it is very simple, the technology on the Mongolian steppe is backward, and many times even the iron pot cannot be manufactured, so the copper products of the Central Plains are also good things, and the harsh living environment of the steppe region has created a different moral concept from the Central Plains, such as stealing, robbing and the like are not so strictly prohibited, and even Genghis Khan Temujin's mother Heelun was snatched by his father from others.

In such a situation, it is not surprising that Saiyan has committed stealing.

So the cause of death of this dignified Yan Qianhu was about to come out: it was clearly to steal the copper bell on the Yongan Wanshou Tower, straddle the windowsill and lean out, and accidentally fell down!

What a humiliating death!

Qin Lin shook his head helplessly, led the crowd straight to the Huitong Pavilion, and despite the obstruction of several Mongolian warriors who stayed there, forcibly searched the tightly stuffed room, and found a package under his bed.

"Oh, it's so heavy!" Lu Fatzi dragged the package out with a smile, and suddenly it spread out, and many bronze and silver objects fell to the ground with a clatter.
