The torrential rain in Werewolf Village is estimated to be going to stop for a while.

At 8:50 p.m., Ye Ming and Yedye Xinghe returned to the hotel.

There is still no news from the old boatman's side, the positioning device can already be determined to have been destroyed, and the old boatman's location cannot be found, and the people sent out by the XX Guild have not returned.

In this rainy weather, going to sea is indeed not a wise choice, and the old boatman must be strange when he goes to sea at this time.

But Ye Ming still didn't find any evidence to prove that the person who entered the elder's room at 11:55 last night was the old boatman.

Sitting in my hotel room, the sound of the rainstorm outside the window hit the windowsill with a loud bang. Night Dye Xinghe sat on the sofa without saying a word, while Ye Ming held two photos with his brows furrowed.

These two photos, one is a photo of the elder after being attacked by werewolves, and the other is a photo of the elder's room taken by the photographer at 11:55 last night.

"Smack." A gust of wind blew from the window, and a drop of rain hit the photo in Ye Ming's hand, which also interrupted Ye Ming's long and chaotic thoughts.

"Water?" Ye Ming stared at the drop of rain on the photo, and suddenly thought of something.

"You wait here for news from the XX Guild, if you find the old boatman, you go to ask them clearly, and I will go out to determine some things." Ye Ming left a sentence, picked up the umbrella and rushed out of the room.

The night dyed galaxy is now clueless, although the old boatman is very suspicious, but there is no evidence. She didn't know what Ye Ming was doing now, so she braved the heavy rain to look for a long time, but she still didn't find anything.

Could it be that Ye Ming has discovered something?

As the minutes passed, the night dyed Xinghe couldn't sit still, and anxiously paced around the room, and the sound of rain outside the window made her feel depressed.

She looked at the time, it was almost nine twenty, and Ye Ming had been out for nearly half an hour.

"Bang!" The door to the room was pushed open.

"Let's go, go to the elder's house, and call the people from the XX guild." It was Ye Ming who came in.

"Don't wait for news from the old boatman?" Night-dyed Xinghe asked.

"It's important to find evidence first, otherwise what's the use of finding him? Go to the people of the XX Guild and tell them to go to the Elder's Mansion, and don't say anything, just say that I am waiting for you in the Elder's Mansion. Ye Ming said and hurriedly left the room again.

At 9:50, the elder's old living room.

"What did you call us here for? There's no news from the old boatman. The person in charge of the XX guild looked at the people in this living room and asked Ye Ming puzzled.

"Now we basically conclude that the old boatman is a werewolf, it's so late, and it's a rainstorm, at this time, there must be something strange when going to sea, and the positioning device installed by the XX Guild on his ship has failed, which can be concluded to be man-made, because this device can't be destroyed unless it is dismantled and destroyed."

"The old boatman's series of strange behaviors shows that he is empty-hearted, what would it be if he wasn't a werewolf? But we don't have any evidence now, so I'm looking for you to find evidence that the old boatman is a werewolf. Ye Ming said confidently.

He looked relaxed and complacent, and between his confident words, he had already judged that the old boatman was a werewolf.

"What evidence are you looking for?" Night-dyed Xinghe asked.

"I have called all the other 11 people who came to the Elder's chamber between 11 and 12 o'clock last night, except for the old boatman, and I would like to ask you, especially those who came to the Elder's chamber after the old boatman, have you seen the old boatman wandering around the Elder's residence after leaving the Elder's chamber instead of going far?" Ye Ming asked.

"No, I don't see it."

"I didn't see it either."

"Me too."

……

Eleven people said they didn't see it.

"The three people in the east of the village, you went to look for the elder at about 11:03, and at that time you met the old boatman who happened to come out of the elder's room, may I ask, at that time, did the old boatman have anger or displeasure on his face?" Ye Ming stared at the three people who had quarreled in the middle of the night at the east end of the village.

"This ......," the trio began to recall.

"If you think about it, it's that kind of unwilling or unhappy look, but he hides it well." Ye Ming reminded.

"Seems like so."

"Well, it seems to be a little bit."

"The old boatman has never talked much, he is an old man who lives alone, and last night when he saw us arguing fiercely, he did not persuade us to do a thing or two, and went away in a dull manner, which is indeed a little wrong." The three of them said one after another.

"I know why something is wrong with him. He is an old man who lives alone, has no children and no daughters, I asked him tonight, and he said that he went to the elder to solve his work problems, and everyone knows that the werewolf village is about to be developed by the city, so his job as a boatman will be lost. ”

He wanted the elders to help him find a job that suited him, but the elders were powerless. What kind of job can an old man find if he has no skills? So the elders did not answer him. ”

And he held a grudge. What he said to me was that the elder had promised him, and he was grateful, and it was obvious that he was lying. This work certificate I found at the old boatman's house, a description of the job he wanted to do, and as long as the elder signed it, it was valid. ”

"It's signed. Last night, the old boatman should have come to the elder to sign, the elder rejected him, on this piece of paper, there is the elder's signature, it is the word rejection! What he said to me was that the elders agreed to his work, and it was a blatant lie! ”

"You can take a look." Ye Ming took out a blank piece of paper, on which was written some handwriting about the work, and in the lower right corner, there was the signature of the elder, which was indeed a rejection.

"Indeed, it is the handwriting of the elders." The elder's wife looked at it and confirmed.

"He told a lie, and he made a series of strange moves tonight, and he was definitely the werewolf who repeatedly attacked the villagers! When I came to investigate the werewolf attack on behalf of the XX Guild tonight, it was the old boatman who brought me in by boat. ”

"He asked some very strange questions about where I came in and what I did. At the time, I didn't think anything was wrong, so I just said it. When he learned that I had come specifically to investigate werewolves, and that I was an experienced investigator, he was heartbroken. ”

"The rainstorm out to sea tonight is enough to prove it!" Ye Ming said sonorously and powerfully.

"I didn't think the old boatman was a werewolf! So what evidence are you looking for? The person from the XX guild asked.

"I have a photo here, taken by a photographer at 11:55 last night, and it shows that at this point in time, the elder has not yet encountered a werewolf attack, but, at this point in time, someone entered the elder's room, because the door in the photo was pushed open, and a figure was reflected in the room from outside the door." Ye Ming took out the photo.

"I want you to tell you now, have you seen the old boatman wandering around the neighborhood after leaving the elder's old house for the first time, or more directly, someone saw that at this point in time, at about 11:55 last night, the old boatman returned to the elder's old house."

"If anyone sees it, then the evidence that the old boatman is a werewolf has been found!" Ye Ming continued.

The big guys were silent for a while.

"I see it." Finally, someone spoke.

It was a man in his thirties, not tall, thin and weak, and this man was a servant of the elder's family.

"Oh? Say it! Ye Ming looked at this person.

"At about 11:53 p.m. last night, the old boatman came to the elder again. He came once at 11:10 p.m., and on that occasion I faintly heard the sound of a quarrel in the elder's room, and about three minutes later the old boatman was gone. ”

"The second time he came, I thought he was here to apologize to the elders, so I didn't pay much attention." The servant whispered.

"Then why didn't you say it earlier!" The person in charge of the XX guild scolded angrily.

"I said, the people from the XX Guild came to me last night and asked me why I had come to the elder, and I said that the old boatman had been with 11 other people." The servant hastened to plead.

"I'm talking about the second time, the one at 11:55, why didn't you bring it up? What are you hiding from such a strange thing? The person in charge of the XX guild asked.

"I ...... That's because...... There are many people who come to the elders every day, and I receive them first, and I have made a private rule that if I look for the elders more than twice a day, I will ...... Just charge the hardship fee. ”

"I was afraid that this matter would be exposed, so I didn't dare to say it." The servant said resignedly.

"Hardship? Is it your hard work or the elders' hard work? What are you...... Collect personal wealth! Is there such a thing? The people from the XX guild asked the other 11 villagers.

"Yes." When the others saw that the servant had spoken out of his own accord, they did not help him hide it.

"Bang!" At this time, the door of the living room was pushed open, and the people from the XX guild walked in.

"The old boatman has found it and is bringing it here." The man said.

"Okay, now let's see if he has anything to quibble, by the way, pay attention, he is a werewolf, very dangerous." The head of the XX guild said.

"No need, apologize to the old boatman, pay him a sum of gold coins, and send him back." Ye Ming suddenly smiled and waved his hand.

"Huh? He's a werewolf, you've found proof! He also braved the heavy rain to go to sea and destroyed my positioning device, such a strange behavior, let him go? "The person in charge of the XX guild doesn't understand.

"He went out to sea in the heavy rain, and I guess it was because someone booked his boat, and he went out to sea in the heavy rain to keep his promise. As for the positioning device, I just said that it will not be damaged unless it is dismantled and destroyed, this device is installed by you, you should know best, bad rainstorm weather, the device will also fail. Ye Ming said.

"The positioning device is still on the ship, it is true that the rainstorm caused the device to fail, and the old boatman did say that he went to sea to pick up a person, this person, booked his boat." The person from the XX guild said.

"That lasted a long time...... What is this? The person in charge of the XX guild was at a loss.

"Lead the snake out of the hole. In fact, the real werewolf is hidden in these two photos, and the other clues are not the most important. Ye Ming took out the two photos.

"What do you mean?" Night-dyed Xinghe asked.

"These two photos don't capture werewolves, and they're not dynamic pictures, where did you see werewolves?" The head of the XX guild stared at these two photos, but where are the werewolves?

"The elder is left-handed, as everyone should know. This first picture was taken at 11:55, and the second picture was taken after the elder was attacked and killed by a werewolf, that is, it must have been after 11:55. ”

"In the first picture, you can see clearly, this cup of tea is on the left hand side of the elder, because he is left-handed, and it is normal for the teacup to be placed on the left side. The teacup was quite far from the elder's left hand, about twenty centimeters. ”

"In the second picture, the teacup is poured on the right hand side of the elder, don't you think it's strange?" Ye Ming pointed to the teacups in the two photos and said.

"It's a little weird, but what does it mean?" Night-dyed Xinghe asked.

I continued. In the first photo, you can clearly see that there is not much tea in the teacup, and the elder must have drunk a lot. In the second picture, you see, the teacup is poured on the right hand side of the elder, but a large amount of tea is poured out, staining the books on the table. ”

"I tested it, and I only poured out so much tea when the cup was almost full. This shows that at around 11:55, after this person came in, the teacup that had little left of the tea was suddenly full. Ye Ming said.

"This ...... It is not difficult to explain, perhaps the elder found that the tea was finished, and just went to pour a cup of tea. The person in charge of the XX guild said.

"No, it won't. Last night between 11 and 12 o'clock, the first person to go to the elder's house was this fisherman, who went at 11:02. When I brought him in, I asked him, and he said that when he went, he noticed that the tea on the elder's table was almost finished, and asked if he wanted to fill it for the elder. ”

"Right?" Ye Ming asked the fisherman.

"Yes, when I saw that the tea in the elder's teacup was almost gone, I asked him, and he said no." The fisherman said.

"I also asked 10 other people, and some of them remember clearly, when they came, they saw that the elder's teacup was almost empty, and some of them didn't notice."

"I also asked the people who came to the elder's room earlier, at about nine o'clock last night, someone looked for the elder, and saw that the tea in the elder's teacup was the same as the tea in this picture taken at 11:55."

"In other words, from 9 o'clock to 11:55 last night, this teacup was like this, and there was not much tea left in it. Many of the people who came to the elders said that they wanted to pour tea for the elders, but the elders refused. ”

Because the elder was a kind and courteous man, he knew that it was not polite to let a visiting guest pour him tea for him, because the visitor was a guest. He didn't pour the tea himself, and I asked the Elder's Lady about that, and she could explain. Ye Ming said.

"He, once he does something, he forgets to sleep and eat, let alone tea, and he doesn't eat food. The day's work is not done, and he really doesn't want to eat. It is not uncommon for the teacup to be empty, and he will fill it before doing something, but after drinking, he will not waste time pouring it. ”

"Unless he's done with today's business, but he's busy until one or two o'clock in the evening every day. Last night, he also specially instructed me to prepare a little supper for him at one o'clock in the evening. The elder's wife said.

"Everyone should understand, right? When the elders are fascinated by doing things, they don't pour the tea themselves, and they don't call the guests to help, so why is the tea full at 11:55? ”

"There is only one possibility, this person who entered the elder's room at 11:55, only he can trigger the action of pouring tea, and the rest of the people can't."

"There are two such people. One was the elder's wife, but that night, she had an alibi. The second person is you! Ye Ming suddenly pointed and pointed at the servant who was submissive.

"The elder received a lot of visitors last night, and many of them reminded him that the tea was running out. At 11:55 a.m., you went in, and the elder saw you, and naturally told you to fill the tea. ”

"For you are not a guest, but a servant of the elders, and it is your business. When the Elder handed you the teacup on the left-hand side, I guess you saw the Elder's note in the book with the history of werewolves, but you were going to pour the tea, so you didn't read it all. ”

"When you poured your tea and came to the elders again, you saw it clearly. You know what those labels mean, so you know, the elders need to know you're a werewolf! ”

"When you handed the teacup, you did it, so the position of the teacup moved, and the teacup was broken by a corner, which can be judged to have been caused by slipping from a height. You don't care where the teacup is poured, but it falls to the right hand of the Elder. ”

"A full cup of tea has ruined some of the marked books, and the evidence that the elders have found that you are a werewolf has also destroyed a lot, so you don't have to take it with you."

"This teacup is proof!" Ye Ming said.

"I don't know what you're talking about, but I said, the old boatman came here at 11:55, and you also said that he was dissatisfied with the elder's rejection of his job application, and didn't the three people in the East Village also see the old boatman walking out of the elder's room in anger? The second time he came, he must have been dissatisfied with the elder's rejection. The servant straightened up suddenly, and said unhurriedly.

"Yes, that's what I said, but if I think about it, I said that the old boatman was a werewolf, and he killed the elder because he was dissatisfied with his work, which is simply a statement that does not stand up to scrutiny, you should have noticed it a long time ago, right? However, the more this happens, the easier it is for you to fall for it, and how can you fall for it if it weren't for the traps full of loopholes? ”

"The step-by-step strategy is powerful, but you are already vigilant and will be more careful. A trap full of flaws, you don't care at all. ”

"I said that the old boatman had come to consult with the elders tonight about work, and yes, but the elders agreed. This rejection of the work certificate was written by me, and the signature was imitating the handwriting of the elders, and it was just a signature, which was not too difficult. ”

"As for the three families at the east end of the village, who you said about seeing the old boatman angrily walking out of the elder's room, is that true? The three of them were already angry, and they quarreled in the middle of the night, and no one was in a bad mood, under this premise, they didn't like anyone, so they naturally felt that the old boatman also had an angry look, and with a little guidance, they felt even more so. ”

"The three of them quarreled so much that they would pay attention to the expression of an old boatman? No way. All the things about the old boatman, I made it up, and you? As I said, the old boatman and the elder did not quarrel at all! Ye Ming said.

"I know that the teacup thing can only be speculated at best, but why are you lying about the old boatman I made up? Do you want to put the identity of the werewolf on the head of the old boatman? Besides, what other reason can you give me? ”

"Say!" Ye Ming said coldly.

There was silence for a while.

"Hehe, I'm a werewolf, what can you do with me!" The servant laughed, his eyes instantly turned scarlet, and in less than a moment, he turned into a huge werewolf boss!
