Chapter 807: Trying to Cover Up
"If the door hasn't been opened today, then maybe they died last night." Li Yuan frowned slightly, and looked at Lu Wan with inquiring eyes.
"Hmm." Lu Wan nodded slightly.
"A normal person will start to have corpse spots after an hour of death, and there will be differences according to the constitution and the circumstances of death.
When we examined them, we found that the corpse spots had begun to spread, taking on a diffuse purple-red color, which occurred at least four to five hours after death.
Therefore, the time of their death should be around the time of the child, and that time is also a time when people are relatively slack, and the murderer chose this time to act, perhaps with this in mind."
Li Yuan's head was bowed, and Lu Juan's autopsy was more accurate, and he was also convinced of this.
"Wu Feng, apart from the innkeeper and the guy who died here, can the identities of the other victims be found?" Lu Wan raised his eyes to look at Wu Feng.
Wu Feng barely spoke to this mysterious jade prince, and when she called his name at first, he was still in a trance for a while, and after reacting, he nodded hurriedly.
"You need to register to check in at the inn, Huzi, look for the registration booklet and bring it!" Wu Feng raised his voice and shouted.
"Okay!"
The soldier named Huzi was standing at the counter, and when he heard the sound, he drew a dagger from his boot and directly opened the lock on the cabinet.
There were two booklets in it, and a small box niche, he couldn't read or tell which one it was, so he just took it all in one go.
"Boss, it's all here!" Huzi smiled honestly, and his naivety diluted the serious atmosphere a lot.
Lu Wan opened the first book and looked at it briefly, and then handed it directly to Wu Feng.
"This is the registered person, there is a transcript of the customs clearance document on it, you can help determine who the deceased are, and report it directly to the official."
"Okay!" Wu Feng nodded seriously.
Lu Juan's gaze retracted, and there was no content written on the face or inside the remaining book, but she could feel something when her fingertips crossed the page, her eyes were slightly dark, she closed the book, and silently put it away.
The niche is locked with a peculiar style that requires a special method to unlock.
"Moonlight." Lu Wan called.
"Yes."
Lu Wan handed over the niche, and Yue Ran glanced at the lock, and then put it away.
Lu Juan walked to the desk of the shopkeeper, and when Huzi was locked just now, she noticed that the cabinet was locked.
"Isn't the one who kills for money, just for the sake of killing?" Lu Wan muttered.
"How do you know it's not for money, Wu Feng said that the silver in the drawer is gone!" Li Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly.
The top drawer was wide open, and the inside of the money box was empty.
Lu Wan naturally didn't jump to conclusions for no reason, he was just curious why.
"If it's really for the money, and everyone is dead, will the murderer just rummage through the drawers and not look at the cabinet below? Just now, Xiaohu was a different lock, and it can be seen that the murderer only took the money in the drawer and left.
"Look at these deceased people, they should be guests of the inn, and they have all the wrenches and jade pendants on their bodies. If someone really killed the people of this room for money, would they let go of these possessions?"
Li Yuan looked along Lu Juan's point, and sure enough.
"Heh, so it seems to me that he took the money in the drawer to make us think that the murderer killed for money, which is more like trying to cover it up." Lu Wan's cold voice carried a hint of sarcasm.
