Chapter 29: A Vain Pleading

-

Ember Waping's narration is much calmer and clearer than that of Dia Firefinch.

After all, he is older, and after all, he has to suffer more frustrations and know the helplessness of the world than a duchess and miss.

"We thought that for Pamu Crow, what happened after the marriage dinner was just ......," Ember glanced at Lina, who was sitting on the other side of Miss Dia, "it was just an accident, just a moment of drunken distraction." You know, we don't have a choice when we treat adults like that. Therefore, we thought about leaving, but it would be more common sense to wait until Miss Dia was married. ”

Ember was clearly a keen man enough to recognize the slight blankness on Mo Shi's face. So he explained to him:

"Miss's personal maid was supposed to accompany her to her husband's house, and her surname was to be changed from 'Red Sand Castle' to 'Bluestone Castle', transferring the owner's ownership of herself. If Lina and I really want to leave Miss, we will at least wait until we get married, so that we can look decent. Besides, of course, Lina and I also hope to support Miss by her side. ”

"But we now know that it was a bad decision!" Diya lowered her voice, almost gritting her teeth, "you should have left then......"

"There is no way to repeat what has already passed," Ember sighed deeply, and he looked at Mo Shi again, and continued, "and we are indeed too naïve, perhaps because of the protection of the Duke of Firesparrow, we have lost our due vigilance and introspection. We even hope that pleading with Pamu Crow will be useful......"

The scene in Mo Shi's mind slowly took shape.

"I guess you actually figured out how to get Pamu Crow to meet you at the prayer hall that day?" asked Mo Shi.

Ember Waping nodded.

Because he was so entangled with Lina that he even threatened to arrange a place for Lina, which meant that he had already told someone about his and Lina's ...... Maybe it's the Crow's, maybe it's the Firesparrow's - and you know, if he really wants it, no one has the right to refuse him. ”

I see.

Mo Shi finally understood a little. Some truly understand the mood of the person concerned.

This is a young couple, in fact, everything they do is based on the desire for the balance around them not to be broken.

Therefore, it is true that killing cannot be their first option.

"I asked the young lady to invite Pamu Crow to the prayer hall at the dinner. There will be no one in the prayer hall at the dinner, and it will be under God's watchful eye, and I look forward to ......"

"But you didn't get it done. ”

"Pamu Crow had drunk, and perhaps he had been so rude and rude when he wasn't drinking, but in any case, when he grabbed me by the throat and threatened me, he said how dare I, a lowly Heyar, have a lot of words about his decisions. I admit it...... At that time, I felt an irrepressible anger. ”

That's it. Ember Waping was slightly distracted, and briefly fell into memory.

- The arm of Efaya was strong and haughty, and he still tried to plead with him. "She is the one I love, and I want to marry her" even said something like this.

Pamu Crow saw his love for Lina and burst out laughing.

He had just mocked Ember Waping's life, and now it was as if his name had been insulted:

"You are a Heyal!" he said, "she is not even worthy of being your side chamber!, and if she chooses you as her lover, then why not me? I can make her my personal maid, and that is her honor—"

Pamu Crow's words came to an abrupt end.

And the dagger in his hand stabbed into the man's chest obliquely and hard.

Piercing the garments, piercing Efaya's rich fur and muscles, like a pitch-black nail.

And when he pulled out the dagger, blood gushed out.

The other party didn't seem to believe that such a thing could happen, and he probably never thought that he would be injured by a low ant. When he reacted, he crawled on the ground like a raging beast, but finally did not move.

Ember Waping grabbed her bewildered lover and hurried away from the defiled temple.

The gods watched everything.

-

So at this point, the story itself is actually very clear.

But for a person who is in charge of solving a case, it is clear that more details are needed to support the theory.

"I've noticed some details and want to ask," Mo Shi said cautiously, "but I don't know if it's the right thing right now?"

Diya glanced up at him, as if intent on condemning his hypocrisy.

Ember Waping was not much hostile, he calmed down for a moment and tore himself out of his memories: "Of course. Since you are now the temporary enforcer of the Red Sand Castle, you have a right. ”

Mo Shi swallowed subconsciously and pursed his lips, he felt like a hyena. At the same time, he felt his thirst for the truth, and the sudden shortening of the distance between himself and the truth.

"You didn't confirm Pamu Crow's death before you left?" he asked cautiously, "according to what you just said, it seems like this. ”

Lina and Diya looked at him in surprise.

Ember Wapping pondered for a moment: "Indeed, it was an accident, and it was chaotic. But that doesn't matter, the fact is that Pamu Crow is dead. ”

This is very much in line with the case of murder of passion in a sudden situation.

Mo Shi pondered and asked a question that he valued very much: "Did you do anything to erase the evidence before you left?"

"I wiped Pamu Crow's hand because he used to grab my neck and I was afraid of being sniffed. I took the dagger, and when I left, I took care to wipe the snow with my coat so that I didn't leave a footprint. ”

"Door. Mo Shidao, "You left from the gate?"

"Yes. At that time, the vicinity of the prayer hall was empty. ”

"Didn't anyone try to enter the prayer hall halfway through?" Mo Shi had struggled for a while before asking this question, but in the end he decided to ask clearly—this was the key part, and it was very likely to determine Mo Shi's judgment on this case.

...... Because he has another huge guess.

In fact, Duke Firefinch's handling of the situation, such as summoning everyone to the hall and sealing off the case, gave Moshi's investigation a large intelligence advantage.

For example, only a handful of people know about the door of the prayer hall, about the deadbolt, about the secret room, about the death of the head of the prayer hall, Chivino, and so on.

These became Moshi's chips and weapons. and underpins a more complete reality.

Ember Waping sat there, recalling carefully, and finally shook his head:

"I don't think anyone has ever tried to get in. There was no knocking, no inquiry, and we didn't lock the door. If anybody was going to come in, he could have come in without a hitch—oh my God, the empty ship was up there, could it be that someone had witnessed everything I had done? Was it Chivino? That's why he came to me? No, no, no, I didn't kill him, Lord Moshi, I didn't!"

Ember Wapin's guess was like a thunderbolt, startling Dia and Lina, their hair standing on end.

Mo Shi stared at the three poor young men in front of him silently.

"Nope. You must have thought about that possibility, haven't you? at least, you have wondered if someone else killed Civino for some other reason. Moshi pointed out this.

He has now confirmed it.

It's just that he doesn't know how to plan and act on what happened after the speculation.

This world is obviously not the stage for criminal investigation novels, and it is more akin to conspiracy novels than detective stories - Mo Shi hopes that he will not pay too much for his naivety.
