Chapter 4 Inferences
Chu Yun was shocked, "The murderer never left the room? If the killer was in the room all the time, why didn't anyone see it? ”
Wen Qing asked, "My lord, do you think that after the murderer killed Allure, he left the room, right?" ”
Chu Yun had no doubt about this, "Yes! ”
Wen Qing shook her head, "The folk girl thought so at first!" But then I thought about it, if the murderer left after the murder, how did the murderer leave when the doors and windows were bolted from the inside? Or to put it another way, how did the murderer latch the latches on the doors and windows outside the room after leaving the room? ”
Chu Yun brushed his sleeves and said, "How does this official know?" If this had been clarified, the official would have solved the case a long time ago! ”
Wen Qing said, "I think adults can not pay attention to the problem of how to latch the latches of the doors and windows outside the door after the murderer leaves the room, this is simply a misunderstanding deliberately set up by the murderer, you should change the way of thinking, if it is you, how can you latch the latches of the doors and windows outside the room?" No answers! Because it's simply impossible! The only possibility is that after the murderer killed Allure, he didn't leave at all! The doors and windows were closed by him, so as to explain why the doors and windows were locked at the time of the crime! There is still a saying in my hometown, after all the impossibilities are eliminated, it is impossible again, it is a fact. ”
Chu Yun was silent, he was seriously thinking about the possibility of Wen Qing's inference, he thought about it for a long time, but he didn't come up with a reason, and finally returned to his original question, "Then according to what you say, since the murderer is in the room, why didn't anyone see the murderer?" ”
Wen Qing said, "This is why the murderer put Allure's body on the chair, the murderer, in fact, many people have seen it!" ”
Chu Yun was surprised, "Who is the murderer?" ”
Wen Qing shook her head, "I don't know this yet!" ”
The expression on Chu Yun's face changed, "Miss Wen, are you playing this official?" ”
Wen Qing hurriedly said, "The folk girl doesn't dare!" But the folk girl knew that the murderer must be among the four! ”
"Which four of them?"
"Don't worry, adults, before that, let's make an assumption, if the adults are the old bustards of this Yihong Courtyard... The folk girl is just making assumptions, not scolding adults... When you enter a room and see a horrible dead person in the room, how do you react? ”
Chu Yun thought for a while, "First of all, the first reaction is to scream!" And then..."
Wen Qing guided him, "You are a woman, you have never seen a dead person, let alone such a miserable death, you are scared and scream, and then, there will be a voice in your head that tells you to approach her to confirm whether she is dead, but you look at the situation in front of you, people must be dead and can't die, you are very scared, you want to go over, but you don't dare to go over!" I could only stand there and tremble......"
Chu Yun patted his head, "It must be so!" ”
Wen Qing said, "My lord, you go out again, pretend to be an old bustard and come in to see Allure's reaction!" ”
With the first time, this time Chu Yun didn't hesitate at all, and took the initiative to close the door when he went out!
Wen Qing said inside, "My lord, you can knock on the door and come in!" ”
With a "bang", Chu Yun broke into the door, and then began to scream, he actually acted well!
It's as if there really was a corpse on that chair!
Wen Qing patted Chu Yun on the shoulder, "My lord, the murderer, it's right behind you!" ”
Chu Yun was so frightened that he turned around and was about to draw his saber, but when he saw that it was Wen Qing, he frowned and said, "You are a murderer?" ”
Wen Qing saw Chu Yun draw his knife and hurriedly took a step back, "My lord! Are we restoring the site? You're a bustard, but I'm not the murderer, and the murderer was standing behind you at the time! ”
Chu Yun shook his head, "I don't understand!" ”
Wen Qing walked behind the door and blocked herself with the door, "The murderer was hiding behind the door at that time, and never left, she latched the door shut, and the people outside wanted to come in, so they had to knock the door open, and after the door was knocked open, he grabbed the half of the door, and the half of the door was just right to block her!" At this time, when the door is slammed open, the first thing the person who comes in will be the bloody corpse of Allure on the chair, and he will be frightened and scream at the sight of this, and the cry will soon attract the others, who will rush into the room, all wondering what is happening! Then the first thing everyone who comes in will be the corpse of Allure, and surprise, fear, and screams accompany everyone! No one noticed that there was a person hiding behind the door, and when more and more people were attracted to it, the murderer took the opportunity to come out from behind the door and blend into the crowd, pretending that he was also attracted by the screams! ”
"No one suspects her, because the murderer is someone from Yihong Courtyard!"
"My lord! If I'm not mistaken, the witnesses at the time of the crime were not only Lao Bustard and Li Gongzi! ”
Chu Yun recalled the situation that night and said, "There are still many onlookers!" ”
Wen Qing said decisively, "The murderer is among the crowd of onlookers!" ”
Chu Yun was puzzled, "Didn't you say that you knew that the murderer must be among the four?" There were as many as 10 onlookers! ”
A smile appeared at the corner of Wen Qing's mouth, this was the first time she had smiled from the bottom of her heart after crossing over.
She asked, "My lord, do you remember those ten people?" ”
Chu Yun said, "I can't remember, but the main matter has been registered!" ”
"Then the troublesome lord will find these ten people, and I will tell you which four are those four!"
If she had heard the bustard's screams and run to the second floor that night, she would have been right, the murderer would have been one of the four!
Chu Yun turned around and walked out of the room, before the half-pillar incense arrived, all ten people gathered in the room!
The soldiers who came to Yihong Courtyard this morning, Chu Yun did not completely withdraw, and there were still a few left, nine out of ten were from Yihong Courtyard, and they were found quickly! The only one who has to take time is that Li Gongzi, and he has to send someone to find it!
Wen Qing looked at these ten people, all ten of them lowered their heads, but obviously they were not afraid of Wen Qing, but the people from the Criminal Department! Occasionally, someone raised their heads and quickly raised their eyes to look at Wen Qing, but they quickly lowered their eyes, and their eyes contained all kinds of meanings!
Wen Qing's face was expressionless, she didn't have any feelings for these people, and she didn't care what they thought!
Among these ten people, there are the old bustard and Li Gongzi, the girls of Yihong Courtyard, the second child of Yihong Courtyard, and the female workers...
Wen Qing pulled out a few of the girls from Yihong Courtyard among these ten people, no more, no less, just four!
She said to the other six, "You can go down!" ”
The six of them looked dazed, they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in this gourd, and they hurriedly called over just to take a look? But no one wanted to stay here, so after hearing Wen Qing's words, they all left quickly!
Chu Yun pulled Wen Qing aside and whispered, "How can you be sure it's the four of them?" ”
Wen Qing glanced at the table with her eyes, "Do you remember that pot of blood water in the kettle?" ”
Of course, Chu Yun remembered that there was not only blood and water in it, but also the smell of rouge in it, and he also asked her at that time, why did it smell of rouge! But Wen Qing didn't answer him!
Chu Yun saw it just now, Wen Qing seemed to pick out four at random, but those four were all girls from Yihong Courtyard!
"Although I can guess that they all used rouge, I still don't know how you are so sure that the murderer must be among the four of them?"
Wen Qing asked rhetorically, "My lord, do you know why there is blood in the kettle?" ”
Chu Yun shook his head!
Wen Qing glanced at Chu Yun, "That's the murderer In order to make herself look like others, her hands are stained with the blood of Allure, she has to clean it up, there is just a pot of water in the room, she washed her hands with that pot of water!" So the kettle is blood red! ”
"Lao Bustard and Li Gongzi can be ruled out directly! Because they were the first discoverers! Men can be excluded because they don't apply rouge, and women workers can also be excluded! ”
Wen Qing stretched out her hands, the skin of those small hands was rough, and they had even cracked, "The hands of the female workers are all like me, because I am also a female worker, because we can't afford rouge gouache, not to mention that our hands will do all kinds of chores every day and come into contact with water, so we don't apply rouge gouache at all, now the weather is cold and dry, in order to prevent the skin on their hands from drying out, the girls in Yihong Courtyard will apply thick rouge to their hands to protect their skin, so when the murderer washes his hands with the water in the kettle, There will be a residual rouge smell! ”
"There are four girls from Yihong Courtyard among the onlookers, so the murderer must be among the four of them!"
