769. Believe in science
After the relief came, the proprietress cried and cried, "Uncle Zhao died like this?" ”
Everyone didn't reply, only Qi Wushuang walked towards the corpse with a solemn face, and then nodded after a tentative snort.
The people who walked with Zhao Er showed heartache one after another, and the proprietress also cried, if it weren't for Lao Li beside her, I was afraid that she would be paralyzed directly to the ground.
Qi Wushuang looked at the corpse again, shook his head and said, "One knife kills, it's hopeless." ”
"It's that ghost, that outsider's ghost who came out to harm people!"
At this time, other people had already come up to watch the excitement, and one of them shouted in horror, which also stimulated the fear of the others.
Zhaoyu shook his head and comforted everyone in a calm voice, "If it's really a ghost that harms people, why is there a knife stuck in the corpse?" I don't know how goblins are supposed to kill, but I know they don't need knives. ”
A word woke up the person who hit the target, and everyone discussed, "Yes, ghosts use spells to kill people, and they don't need knives!" "It seems that Zhao Er was murdered for money!" ", he actually used the legend of ghosts to deceive us, this bandit is too hateful!"
Having said that, there are still people who refuse to believe it, "But no one stipulates that ghosts can't use knives to kill people, what if that ghost wants to kill people with knives today?" ”
I thought it would provoke a war of words, but unexpectedly, Zhaoyu nodded, "I don't deny it, what you said also makes sense." ”
Qi Wushuang looked at her with some consternation, "Zhaoyu, you ......"
At this time, Emperor Qianling's words interrupted his inquiry, "Anyway, put the corpse down first, even if it is not a ghost, it is quite scary to have a corpse here alone." ”
Qi Wushuang immediately complied, and Emperor Qianling asked everyone to go back first.
When they left, the proprietress stepped forward tremblingly and asked, "This guest officer, how should this be a good ......?"
Emperor Qianling waved his hand to signal her to calm down, "Don't worry, I will investigate the outcome of the matter and give you justice." ”
The proprietress was immediately grateful, and thanked Emperor Qianling for her kindness, "Great, I must remember the great kindness of your few people!" Oh, you must know that we who are in business, the most afraid is to affect our reputation, you said that if the news of the dead people spreads, our business will not be able to do it......"
The proprietress chattered endlessly, and Di Qianling didn't want to talk to her for too long, so she coughed and pretended to find something, "Oh, Wushuang, don't move first, let me go and see ......"
With that, he smeared oil on the soles of his feet and followed Qi Wushuang to carry the corpse.
Seeing that the person she confided in ran away, the proprietress set her eyes on Ye Jingjing, and said with a bitter face, "This girl, don't you know, our small business, if we encounter these things, we will really ......."
Ye Jingjing was embarrassed, after all, she didn't know how to persuade the other party when she encountered this kind of thing, so she could only respond absentmindedly.
Fortunately, Lao Li interrupted the proprietress in time, "Let's go back and rest first, don't disturb these guest officers to investigate." ”
Ye Jingjing suddenly showed a "saved" expression, and the proprietress seemed to realize something, and scratched her head embarrassedly, "Alas, am I talking too much?" That's a few troubles, I'll have to go back and rest first. ”
Immediately afterwards, she sighed and said with a wry smile, "Alas, this person, my body is not good when I get old, if it wasn't for Lao Li's support just now, I would definitely faint." ”
After the proprietress and Lao Li left, Zhaoyu immediately investigated the house.
She quickly looked around the room, shook her head and said, "There is no place to hide, but Zhao Er's things have not been lost, and those gold and silver are still there, so it can be seen that it is not a murder for money." ”
Ye Jingjing thought for a while and asked, "Could it be revenge?" Businessman, there are always a few competitors, and this Zhao Er always looks disrespectful, maybe someone hates him. ”
"In this way, Lao Li just now can be ranked as the first suspect." Qi Wushuang said. "He has been humiliated by Zhao Er before, it seems that they come often, maybe he often insults Lao Li, and then he wants to get rid of him a long time ago."
Zhaoyu shook his head, "Lao Li stayed on the first floor with us at that time, you may not have noticed, but I kept watching, whether it was Lao Li or the proprietress didn't leave." ”
Qi Wushuang quipped, "You don't really believe that ghost story, do you?" When we discussed it before, you were convinced of the story of the proprietress and said just now that you would not deny that ghosts can kill people with knives......"
Zhaoyu glanced at him and said in a muffled voice, "Anyway, I think everything is possible." We Uighurs still believe in spirits, so it is not non-existent for people to take revenge after death, and there are also various records in ancient books? ”
To put it bluntly, it is because the ancients had enough knowledge and used the theory of gods and ghosts to explain the phenomena they could not understand.
Ye Jingjing said silently in her heart.
She is the last person who believes in ghosts, after all, she is a civilized society, and she has to believe in science.
At this time, Emperor Qianling tore Zhao Er's clothes apart, frowned, and said, "He doesn't have the same black handprints on his body as Lao Li, there are two possibilities: first, he was indeed killed by someone, but someone tried to divert his attention and blame the ghosts."
"Second, he didn't die long enough, so there were no black handprints on his body. Of course, if it is the second case, then it proves that what the boss lady said before is true. ”
Ye Jingjing was the first to express her opinion, "I think the first statement is more reliable, and the second ...... How could that be. ”
Zhaoyu said cautiously, "Wouldn't you go to Lao Li to check it?" If he didn't have a black handprint at the beginning, and he did it later, it would prove that the emperor's speculation just now was also correct. ”
Ye Jingjing couldn't cry or laugh, "Zhaoyu, they may also lie." ”
As soon as the words fell, Ye Jingjing also thought of something, and said to herself, "Yes, if Zhao Er didn't die from a ghost...... Lao Li's black handprint should also be fake, but why did the proprietress lie? ”
This sentence made everyone fall silent.
Zhaoyu was the first to speak, "The proprietress will definitely not joke about her business, if someone is taboo about this, knowing that Lao Li has provoked ghosts, they will not come back to live in the hotel, so what she said must be true." ”
"The hostess does have some problems." Emperor Qianling said. "Remember what she just said? If word of the dead man in the inn spreads, she won't have much business. ”
"Is there something wrong?"
