Chapter 82: The Truth About Murder Night (2)
Everyone's suspicious eyes fell on Jiang Xie again.
Jiang Xie looked at them contemptuously: "Don't shift the target, talk about your own problems." ”
"Master Huo, you have to believe that we really didn't do anything, we didn't kill people." Pang Hei's expression was excited, and Liu Mengming also echoed and said, "Yes, we really didn't kill anyone." ”
Huo Yijun said in a deep voice: "You may not have killed people directly, but they may also have died because of you, I just wanted to hear the truth from beginning to end, but the matter has come to this point, you have not told the truth, and are still hiding it!" ”
Liu Mingming's emotions gradually calmed down, and more helplessness appeared in her eyes.
"When the first person died, we searched all of your rooms, and not all of them handed over the murder weapons, and many of them still hid, but that's not the point I'm going to talk about."
"When I searched your room, I found a quilt and pillow on the couch, which means that you slept separately at night." Huo Yijun walked up to them and asked, "Then I think I really want to ask, pretending to be a husband and wife during the day, but sleeping separately at night, is it awkward or are you not a real husband and wife at all?" ”
Liu Mingming licked her lips, her eyes flickering.
Xiang Xiu reminded from the side: "Liu Mingming, when you picked up customers in the Qinglou for a long time, you did come from a pear orchard in the early years, but no one has redeemed you to this day, this Pang Hei is just your frequent visitor, the two of you pretended to be husband and wife here, in order to hide your identity, I am right." ”
"Yes...... My lord is right, I am a woman in the Qinglou, after receiving the invitation, I want to go to the three-inch villa to ask for a sum of money, before leaving, I discussed with my nephew Pang Hei, I am not a husband and wife, but relatives. Liu Mingming sat on the ground and explained all this silently.
Huo Yijun frowned slightly: "Your affairs are explained clearly, so what clues do you have as to who went to your room to steal crossbow arrows?" ”
Liu Mingming's eyes immediately looked at the scholar, and silently stretched out her hand to him: "He! ”
"The murderer must be him!!"
Huo Yijun looked at the scholar in the direction she was pointing, and the corners of her mouth lifted lightly: "Why do you doubt him?" ”
Liu Mingming's eyes were firm, and his words were powerful: "I suspect him, because he used to live in Wu Million's room, he took advantage of Pang Hei's absence to sneak into my room many times with bad intentions towards me, after being discovered, he changed rooms with Wu Million, and then changed to the old man's room, but after a while, the old man asked to change back." ”
"He is so angry that he will definitely kill people to vent his anger!"
Xiang Xiu said curiously: "So, these scholars in the room where the crime occurred have stayed for a while?" ”
The scholar who was in the center of the speech suddenly stepped forward and argued with a smile: "I have changed rooms, but what does this mean?" ”
"It shows that you know very well in the room where the crime occurred, and you know better than they know how to set up the bracket, or facilitate peeping." Huo Yijun recalled once again when he searched the room, "There was a hole in the wall of Liu Mingming's room, and I thought it was unremarkable until I found holes in other rooms, and there were also holes in your room. ”
"Holes?" The scholar scoffed.
Huo Yijun asked Xiang Xiu again: "The scholar is also a frequent visitor to Liu Mingming, right?" ”
"Yes." Xiang Xiu's tone was firm.
Huo Yijun took a step forward, stood in front of the scholar at close range, and said coldly: "You're peeping at Liu Mingming, right??" ”
was said to be the center of thought, the scholar's face was dark, and his eyes wandered.
"There is another thing, everyone has seen it, the murderer hiding among us also likes to stand outside the window and peep at us, or our every move is in the murderer's eyes, peeping can bring him pleasure, just like Wu million gluttony can bring a certain amount of pleasure, it's the same."
The people present involuntarily avoided the scholar and stood on Huo Yijun's side.
Qianhu looked at the scholar with a puzzled look: "What do you mean, Lord Huo thinks that the murderer who killed three people in a row is not Liu Mengming and Pang Hei, but a scholar?" ”
"The scholar voyeur and the murderer have a common hobby, but he is not a murderer."
Huo Yijun emphasized emphatically: "At most...... Accomplice! ”
"And you're all accomplices! They all know who the murderer is! ”
After saying this, the atmosphere became unusually quiet—
"Two years ago, Dali Temple handled a case of reselling ordnance in Heiwu Mountain, which was an arms trade carried out in Ningcheng by Shen Xiang's subordinates of the former dynasty and His Royal Highness Tule of Shemengguo, a small country in the south, and many of them were involved, and the Liu family, the Jia family, the Bai family, and other people who were present were all recorded."
"If someone takes this account book, it is equivalent to mastering the old people who committed crimes back then, and the people in the account book will be pinched, and what attracts you the most is that Huo Ling's name has been written on this account book."
"This is the real purpose of you people who have worked so hard to come here, you want to use this to climb the Huo family!"
Qianhu was very dissatisfied with this: "We are indeed here from the account books, but we are all for self-preservation, why do we want to kill people?" Why become an accomplice? ”
