088. Set fire to the corpse
It's the middle of the night again, Shi Manqian took advantage of the night to sneak into Bai Xiaoqiu's room, she is here to deliver benefits, it's information, okay, okay, she is mainly here to get ice cream, and she will give the information to Bai Xiaoqiu casually.
When she came over, Bai Xiaoqiu was telling jokes to Zhao Zhitao to amuse her, the little girl's mental state has not been very stable recently, and she has not come out of the shadow of the team's almost annihilation, so she is very clingy, sometimes she will be scared to run to Bai Xiaoqiu's room when she encounters thunder and rain at night and has nightmares or something, and Bai Xiaoqiu is so frightened that her pants fall off (no)
Shi Manqian was stunned at first when he saw that there were other people in Bai Xiaoqiu's room, and when he saw that it was a very cute girl, he was inexplicably a little unhappy.
She smiled and said, "You can, you can go out and do a task and you can kidnap a cute girl~"
She smiled very brightly and her tone was also very charming, but Bai Xiaoqiu felt a strong murderous aura, stabbing his head and reflecting it.
Bai Xiaoqiu swallowed with difficulty, and quickly explained: "What did you misunderstand, she is Zhao Zhitao, which is equivalent to my sister." He glanced at Shi Manqian, meaning to explain to her later, and then said to Zhao Zhitao: "Little Peach, this is your sister Shi Manqian, you just call her Sister Fan Qian." ”
Zhao Zhitao carried her hunting flute that seemed to never leave her, bowed honestly, and shouted very obediently: "Sister Fan Qian is good!" ”
"Your sister!!" Shi Manqian broke his face with a friendship and punched Bai Xiaoqiu's face, then turned his head to Zhao Zhitao and smiled: "It's Sister Manqian~ Mu An, Man!" ”
Zhao Zhitao looked confused, but he still obediently changed his words: "Sister Manqian is good!" ”
"That's good!" Shi Manqian patted Zhao Zhitao's face with satisfaction, and then turned to say hello to Rocky: "Yo! Rocky, long time no see! ”
Rocky was slumped on the windowsill spitting smoke rings, and when he saw Shi Manqian, he lazily held up a sign: "It's been a long time since I saw a thief stealing ice cream!" ”
Shi Manqian pretended not to hear, took out the information and put it on the table, and said to Bai Xiaoqiu, "Let's start talking about business." ”
Bai Xiaoqiu nodded, turned around and patted Zhao Zhitao and said, "You go back to sleep first, I'll talk to your sister about something." "This thing just won't change its mind.
Rocky seems to have awakened some bad attributes recently, as soon as Zhao Zhitao got up, it jumped down from the windowsill, jumped into Zhao Zhitao's arms in one step, squinted his eyes comfortably and rubbed against her chest, and then held up a sign: "Sleep together~~"
Bai Xiaoqiu grabbed it by the neck and padded it under his buttocks: "You just sleep here!" ”
――――――――――――――――――――――
After Zhao Zhitao left, Bai Xiaoqiu flipped through the information on the table: "All the records are here?" ”
"I've compiled all the records they left behind after their investigation." Shi Manqian suddenly asked again, "What's going on with that girl?" ”
Bai Xiaoqiu sighed, and told Shi Manqian what happened in Qingtian Village again: "I always feel that taking her is like raising a small animal, just getting together with Rocky." ”
Shi Manqian raised his eyebrows: "What kind of troubles is your loving father's tone with both children under his knees?"
"Forget it, let's get back to business." Bai Xiaoqiu flipped through the information and said: "It seems that these guys are really ready to deal with Luohetu as a murderer."
The contents of the record on paper are roughly as follows:
"The vast majority of the wounds on the corpses were caused by the standard weapons of the Shi Wujia family, so it is assumed that the murderer had superb skills in snatching the white blade with his bare hands, or was committed by a mole."
"Except for the three masters of the Shi family and Shi Wuyan himself, all the victims were killed with one blow. Except for the site where Shi Wuyan was killed, there were no traces of fierce fighting at the scene, and there were no signs of a large-scale counterattack. It is assumed that the killer was highly skilled and possessed good stealth skills, and was able to kill the victim before he was alert. ”
"Signs at the scene indicate that there was only one perpetrator."
"According to statistics, all 27 members of the Shi family were killed, including servants and family members, ruling out the possibility of a traitor."
"The Great Discovery!! There are all kinds of indications that Shi Wucao is the first victim. In other words, the murderer did it to the rest of the Shi family after killing Shi Wucao! Combined with the location of Shi Wucao's murder and the line of words left by the murderer on the wall (the knife is unfavorable, his crime should be punished), it can be speculated that Shi Wucaoshi seemed to be talking to the murderer about something before he was killed, and after the negotiation broke down (probably related to the theft of the shadow gap), the murderer killed the Shi family in a fit of rage. ”
What follows is a large number of records of the visit and investigation, as well as various inferences about the relationship between Shi Wucao, the murderer, and the shadow gap, but they are of little value, so I won't repeat them here.
At the end of the document, a large list of suspects was listed, most of them were former opponents of the Shi family, as well as a few notorious but powerful hunters in the town.
However, most of the names of these suspects have been crossed out, and there are very few left, including the name of Luohetu, which has been drawn in a large circle.
"Luo Hetu, the number one suspect. Although no direct evidence was left in this case, the traces left at the scene were consistent with his usual murder methods, and Luo Hetu was listed as the first suspect in this case, and a wanted warrant was issued again two days later. ”
Luo Hetu is a murderer, and he has been on the wanted warrant for an unknown number of times (don't ask me who the wanted warrant is), so I added a "again" here.
The analysis throughout the record is sound, and it is not surprising that Luohetu is named the murderer. However, Bai Xiaoqiu still decided to go and see the corpses of Shi Wuyan and the others.
It's not that Bai Xiaoqiu has much confidence that Luo Hetu is not a murderer, he just feels that compared to Luo Hetu, the suspicion of the red dragon is greater, which is related to his main quest and has to be treated with caution.
"Where is the body of the Shi family? I'm going to check it out. Bai Xiaoqiu closed the record and looked up.
"The body is still parked in the basement of the Hunters' Guild for the time being, and it will be transferred to Yizhuang in two days." Shi Manqian was a little strange: "Aren't the autopsy results all written on it?" What else are you watching? ”
Bai Xiaoqiu blinked: "I'm going to see a ghost" He suddenly remembered what he had encountered in the Shi family's mansion last time, and hurriedly added, "You go with me!" ”
Shi Manqian thought seriously for a while, and replied: "It's not too difficult to see the corpses of Shi Wuxian's family, there aren't too many people in the basement, so we can just find a chance to sneak in when we set the fire." ”
