"Did anyone come looking for me last night?"

After Gu Huai'an returned to the room, he closed his eyes and rested for a while, and only after the person who took care of himself entered the door did he ask slowly, but through a screen, the people outside could hardly see anything.

"No, the adults are seriously ill, and everyone dare not come to disturb your recuperation."

Gu Huai'an thought about it for a while, but still didn't continue to ask.

It seems that this person came to step on it last night to see if he really can't move, but he didn't have the guts to come in, so he squatted at the door for a while just now.

Gu Huai'an thought about it for a moment and sent someone to call Song Lin over.

……

With three lives on his back, this murderer obviously heard what Song Lin said that Master Gu had woken up and knew about the murderer, and he slowly began to panic, and the whole person began to be restless.

Secretly found the dagger hidden under the bed, which had already occupied the blood stains of three people, and took advantage of the night to go out of the room.

The person in the same room was about to turn off the lights and go to bed, and he was a little puzzled when he saw him preparing to go out, "Why are you going?" It's already so late, and I can't get out. ”

He was suddenly stopped, looking a little flustered, and turned his head silently for a long time, "Ah...... The endorsement has a bit of a headache on the back, and it's ready to go out to breathe. ”

The scholar entered Gu Huai'an's room in the dark, the people who were waiting in this room had already left, Song Zhiting had already left after changing Gu Huai'an's medicine, the lights were out in the room, and only one figure approached silently.

The person who touched the curtain did not hesitate at all, lifted the quilt and stabbed it hard.

But the touch of the hand was wrong, hesitated slightly, stretched out his hand to touch the person on the bed, but suddenly remembered a voice behind him, "Are you looking for me?" ”

Without coming back and talking, he lit the lamp in the room, and there was a faint light in the room, and it was even more embarrassing for the two people to look at each other.

The scholar subconsciously hid the knife in his hand, but he broke into someone else's room in the middle of the night, and he couldn't say anything.

"Your Excellency, ...... Aren't you seriously injured? ”

Gu Huai'an picked up the feather arrow on the table, "This kind of thing may not be able to hurt me on the battlefield, do you think you can really shoot me to death with one arrow?" ”

The scholar did seem to be honest, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Gu Huai'an couldn't believe that the person in front of him was actually a murderer who had attacked him many times, and he still had three lives in his hands.

"Isn't it time for you to tell me how you killed those three people?"

Gu Huai'an basically already knew what his killing methods were, and he was still very curious, how he did it alone.

Gu Huai'an spoke, Song Lin and Song Zhiting, who had obviously left just now, also came in, followed by a lot of officials, including the families of the three people who died.

Gu Huai'an wanted everyone to testify, so he called them all over, and they should have heard what he said just now.

"I don't know how to practice martial arts at all, several of them have practiced martial arts since childhood, how can I beat them?"

Gu Huai'an walked into the room, "If you make them unconscious and then do it, isn't it much easier?" And in this way, it is not too difficult for you, after all, you can still come and go freely at that time, and the three of them have also humiliated you. ”

Don't ask about these things in person, Song Lin has already gotten the news from other candidates, if these candidates still want to shelter this murderer at the beginning, the matter has dragged on for so many days, and it has also delayed their exams, and they gradually can't sit still.

It was logical to tell the three gentlemen who had verbally insulted him.

"But hasn't Master Gu already examined the corpse? They weren't poisoned at all, were they? ”

The murderer was kept in custody and still unwilling to admit it.

"That's because you're not using poison at all, you're using incense."

Gu Huai'an entered the room again, and instead of smelling any rot, he smelled a fragrance, that is, something was covering up?

"What does Master Gu mean by this? My children have been practicing martial arts for so many years, and there should be no way to make them lose their resistance. ”

The father of one of the deceased retorted, not believing that the emaciated man in front of him could be the culprit of his child's murder.

"But what if this person is dressed up as someone who makes them not suspicious?"

Gu Huai'an actually guessed at first, because the spices smelled in the room of his corpse were the kind he often smelled when he went to Yuhualou before, and the reason why he felt familiar was because of these that Gu Huai'an had a bold idea.

If it was really just like the other candidates said, these three people just said that this poor student was shabby, and there were other poor students in this examination room, how could they target him?

Coupled with the suspicious points he found when he was at the scene that day, Gu Huaian can really be sure that the person in front of him was really killed by the person in front of him, but he must have suffered a lot of humiliation before he killed him.

For example, these three children of official families actually have some special habits.

However, at this point, in front of these officials, Gu Huaian didn't know whether he should say it or not, and he always felt that he would be refuted, but if the person in front of him suffered such unfair treatment, it was still somewhat ......

"They often get together on weekdays, and they have a lot of time to eat, drink and have fun, but how did this person get in?"

Although Song Zhiting felt that the person in front of her had killed three people, she still couldn't look at the behavior of these officials who exposed people's scars.

"If your son didn't do anything wrong, how could you force an honest man to do such a thing?"

To put it simply, the reason why Song Zhiting knows these things is actually because this person once asked for help from herself.

But with so many men present, she was a woman, and she really didn't know how to say it.

The official seemed to have a sense of being wronged, and asked the invigilator to give him an explanation, "Lord Song, should your sister also be responsible for saying such things?" Maybe she already knew something, but she never said it. ”

Gu Huai'an interrupted them at this time, "Miss Song does know something about this matter, but I think it shouldn't do your dead son any good if you say it." ”

When Gu Huai'an was suspicious of this matter, he had already secretly investigated, even if the people around here couldn't inspire him, it didn't mean that he couldn't find anything outside.

For example, in the place where the three of them died that day, there were clearly many suspicious points that had not been investigated, so Gu Huaian took advantage of the fact that the scene had not been destroyed and went in to take a look again.

It was close to the Qinglou, but the three of them wanted to find a man to have fun, if they were not mistaken, the murderer in front of them was likely to be insulted by the three of them in this way.

The scholar in front of him looked thin and weak, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that he was much thinner than ordinary men, and after staying in the capital for a long time, Gu Huai'an naturally saw more things, so he naturally thought of these.

It is estimated that these three people have already set their sights on this scholar when they were in the hotel, and several times of verbal teasing have made this scholar endure to a certain extent, and some anger has accumulated in his heart.

However, they didn't know any restraint and continued to provoke, and even used some means to make the scholar in front of them commit to the three of them, which intensified the contradictions behind.

The scholar didn't say it explicitly, and Song Zhiting never told the truth about herself, but after all, the scholar killed someone, and he still had to pay a certain price, but Gu Huai'an felt that it was a pity that this matter, if he hadn't delayed those times on the road, maybe the situation here wouldn't have happened.

He must have blamed himself in his heart.

After dealing with this matter, the three officials didn't say anything, Gu Huai'an was bent on making the exam here safe and secure, and he also wrote a letter to inform him of the situation here, and there was no too obvious movement in the capital, so he didn't care.

I thought that after the exam, I would be able to pack my luggage and go back to the capital, but I didn't expect that at this time, Song Zhiting suddenly found her.

Gu Huai'an originally wanted to go back to the capital to prepare a little before coming back, after all, he hadn't decided whether to marry her or not, and he didn't know if this Song girl was waiting for him, he wanted to go back and deal with the things in hand before coming back and asking carefully.

But unexpectedly, Song Zhiting took the lead in revealing his identity.

"You are inevitably too discredited, why have you disappeared for so long when you said that you would come back to marry me, could it be that you have become a big official in the capital, and you want to admit it?"

Gu Huaan didn't expect the person in front of him to be able to recognize himself so easily, so he was stunned for a moment, but then laughed again.

"If you are willing to marry me, you can go back to the capital with me now, and I will definitely be responsible for you."

Gu Huai'an thought that half of the girls should not agree, and it would take time to think about it, so he didn't like to say this sentence jokingly, but he didn't expect the person in front of him to react quickly.

"Of course I'm going to marry you, I've been waiting for you for so long, and I came here this time to let you leave with me."
