Tie Chong glared at Spicy Jiutian angrily: "Sure enough, you killed Ning Tianxiang, as well as Liu Xiaodong, you have two lives on your body, I'm afraid that it won't be enough to kill you twice."

After Zhang Meixian finished writing these confessions, she looked at Spicy Jiutian and said, "Spicy Jiutian, a manly man, dare to act, you said that since you even confessed to killing Ning Tianxiang, why don't you tell me how you stabbed Ning Tianxiang in the neck?"

Spicy Jiutian looked up at Song Ruilong and said, "My lord, this matter is also strange, the villain didn't stab Ning Tianxiang in the neck at all, and after the villain pushed the door in, he only stabbed a dagger in Ning Tianxiang's heart." At the time, I was still wondering, what was going on? Why didn't Ning Tianxiang resist? Why doesn't the blood from his heart spurt? I later learned that someone killed Ning Tianxiang before me. Oh, yes! That's the case, my lord, I didn't kill Ning Tianxiang, before I stabbed out the dagger, Ning Tianxiang was already dead. ”

Spicy Jiutian said excitedly.

Song Ruilong picked up the teacup, slapped it on the table fiercely, and said, "You know that Ning Tianxiang has been stabbed in the throat, why didn't you report it?"

Spicy Jiutian tilted his head and said, "Do I dare to report?" I am also a murderer. ”

Song Ruilong said: "It's good if you know."

Zhang Meixian looked at Song Ruilong and said: "Long'er, I think this spicy nine days is clearly denying, what Ning Tianxiang has been killed, he is evading responsibility." Long'er, for his mother, he won't say anything if he doesn't give him some punishment. ”

As soon as Spicy Jiutian heard the word "great punishment", his heart trembled, and he said: "If you have to say that the knife was stabbed by me, I will admit it, and there is no need to use any major punishment." Anyway, it's already a capital crime for me to kill Liu Xiaodong, and I don't care about this. Come on! Remember, let's just say that I stabbed the knife, and when it's written, I'll just draw it. ”

Zhang Meixian pointed at Spicy Jiutian angrily and said: "Spicy Jiutian, you are really a stinky chili, and the dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, isn't it?"

"Whatever you say, I'm done."

"Hey! I'm. Zhang Meixian looked at Song Ruilong and said, "Long'er, look at ......"

Song Ruilong was not in a hurry, and said: "Spicy nine days, you have to think about it before you talk about it." Although there is no difference between this death penalty and the deprivation of the prisoner's life, the method of death is very different. For some extremely vicious people, they can be divided into five horses, cut by a thousand knives, and light sky lanterns... You'd better think it through before answering. ”

Spicy Jiutian was not so arrogant, and said: "My lord, I said, what I am most afraid of is the five horses splitting the corpse." I...... I really didn't stab Ning Tianxiang in the neck with a knife, and I only found out about that knife after dawn. ”

Zhang Meixian said: "Long'er, how do you determine the order of the knife in the throat and the knife in the heart?" What if Spicy Jiutian had already killed Ning Tianxiang, and the last person stabbed Ning Tianxiang in the neck? In this way, the nature of the murder in these nine days is completely different. ”

Song Ruilong looked at Zhang Meixian and said solemnly: "Mother, you forget, if a person is not killed before his heart, if he is suddenly stabbed in the heart, then because the blood in the heart is too pressurized, it will be splashed everywhere with the dagger pulled out." However, we did not find any blood splattered at the scene of the crime, and the blood flowing from the mouth of the heart was black, which means that the dagger stabbed by Spicy Jiutian was after the knife in the throat. Now, what we want to find out is who is the knife that stabbed Ning Tianxiang's throat? ”

Zhang Meixian thought about it and said, "Long'er, I'm afraid this is a little difficult, right?" What if that person was the one who killed the burglar? ”

Song Ruilong shook his head and said, "Impossible." Let's start with the scene of the crime. There was no trace of a fight at the scene of the crime, and he was killed with a knife, but there was no loss of money in Ning Tianxiang's bedroom, which means that the murderer did not go for money, his purpose was to kill Ning Tianxiang. Also, judging from the situation at the scene, the murderer knew Ning Tianxiang's bedroom very well, and he must have been an acquaintance who committed the crime, so I concluded that the murderer was the person in the Yuexiang Inn. ”

Zhang Meixian looked around and said, "You said that this murderer is the person in the Yuexiang Inn, why don't I believe it?" This Ning Tianxiang and the proprietress are dead, the shopkeeper is also dead, the chef Spicy Jiutian is now a felon, and the rest of the people, except for the steward Zhao Ping, are the four grooms who usually buy and do chores. One is Zhang Liucai, who is in his sixties and trembles a little when he walks, and the other is Zhao Dazhu, who is in his fifties and has one finger missing from his right hand. There is also a Li Ping, who is in his forties and has lost his hair, and the last one is the thirty-two-year-old, silly Cai Damao. Of these five people, who do you think is the most suspicious? ”

Zhao Ping's face immediately changed, and he said: "My lord, the villain has not seen the face of my boss since the incident, and the villain has been living in the Youlong Inn in Xiangfu County. Don't have time to commit the crime? ”

Song Ruilong said with a smile: "Manager Zhao, don't get excited. According to our way of handling cases, no matter who has anything to do with the deceased, we will investigate thoroughly, and even if he has alibi evidence, we will verify it clearly. ”

Zhao Ping said with a solemn face: "That's, that's, what the adults said is right."

Suddenly, an official walked up to Song Ruilong's side and whispered a few words to him, Song Ruilong kept nodding, and after the official finished speaking, Song Ruilong said, "Well, okay, I'll go now."

After Song Ruilong explained some information, he came to a guest room in the Yuexiang Inn.

The lights were burning in the guest room, and as soon as Song Ruilong entered the door, he saw Liu Tianxiong and Wei Bixi. Before Liu Tianxiong could speak, Song Ruilong asked, "How is it?"

Wei Bixiao told him about his situation at the Youlong Inn, and Song Ruilong said a little strangely: "So Zhao Ping did stay at the Youlong Inn in Xiangfu County for one night on the night Ning Tianxiang died?"

Wei Bixiao said: "According to the shopkeeper of the Dragon Inn, this is indeed the case. However, there is one thing that is very strange. ”

"Oh?" Song Ruilong's eyes rolled and said, "What's the matter?"

Wei Bixiao said: "The room where Zhao Ping lives is extremely smelly, although Zhao Ping took a bath before going to bed at night, but that room is still very smelly." So much so that in the morning, the shopkeeper had to take out all the bedding used by Zhao Ping and wash it again, and even the cups used by Zhao Ping were boiled with boiling water. ”

Song Ruilong took two steps slowly and said, "It seems that there is something wrong with Zhao Ping in this Dragon Inn."

Liu Tianxiong couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean?"
