The county magistrate flicked his sleeves, and under the gaze of everyone, he swaggered to the table in the middle,

The yacha, who was immediately standing behind him, ran over and helped him wipe the stool at his feet with his sleeve.

It wasn't until the bench was polished that the county magistrate squinted and lifted his official robe, sat down slowly, and then drank outside the door,

"Lin Dong, you come in and tell this official in detail about this case!"

Just when everyone was still wondering who this Lin Dong was, a burly man with a full beard and a big knife in his hand rushed in quickly, bowing slightly towards the county order, "Yes, my lord!" ”

After saying that, he straightened up and stood in the middle of the hall like a mountain, and the sound poured into everyone's ears like a flood.

"At three o'clock last night, a man dressed in Han Yan's costume in the Ping'an Inn was killed.

The victim was about 30, unidentified, and was stabbed several times, and the fatal wound was a stab in the chest.

At the same time, there were four unidentified men in black in the room, but they all committed suicide by poisoning themselves in prison last night!

Based on the traces in the room, it is inferred that there was no fighting.

The most suspicious thing is that the four men in black and the victim all have incense in their bodies.

My lord! These are all the clues that the subordinates have now,

Others need to be interrogated again to find out further! ”

"-Miao?" Lingshui County Ling frowned, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly turned his head to look at the shopkeeper on the side,

"Since the four men in black have a misty incense in their bodies, they must not have put it on them.

And the victim is even less likely to be fascinated!

Shopkeeper, this inexplicable fragrance can't be from your store, right?! ”

The shopkeeper standing on the side was frightened when he heard the words of the county order, and quickly ran forward and knelt on the ground.

"My lord Mingjian, how can there be something like incense in our Ping'an Inn, I haven't even heard of it, you ......"

In the middle of speaking, the shopkeeper seemed to suddenly remember something, and his eyes widened in surprise.

"That, my lord, in fact, the Minglan Residence where the death occurred last night is not the room of the dead guest.

That guest should be living on the third floor of Yuanpengju, but Minglan Ju is on the fifth floor! ”

"Oh?" The county commander raised the corners of his eyes slightly, and looked very interested, "Come and tell this official what the situation is in this building!" ”

The shopkeeper raised his head and said respectfully, "If you go back to your lordship, our Ping'an Inn has a total of seven floors.

The bottom two floors are used for eating and feasting, and the third to seventh floors are all elegant residences.

Except for the highest floor, there is only one bedroom, and each floor has two large bedrooms, a total of nine elegant bedrooms.

Each apartment has a main residence and four side rooms, but we usually do not rent the side rooms to others, but mostly provide for the maidservants of the main residence guests.

As for last night, the third floor was occupied by the murdered guest and ......" The shopkeeper turned his head to look at the corner on the right,

There sat the same young woman who had appeared last night, and unlike last night, she was holding a child in her hands.

"And on the fourth floor, this Boss Jia and the young boy next to him are temporarily staying!"

After speaking, the shopkeeper looked at the direction of the ancient fir and Yuan Hua on the left,

"The fifth floor is inhabited by these two guests!"

The shopkeeper paused, as if he was a little embarrassed, "That young lady, I should have lived in Minglan Ju last night!" ”
