Polpo remembered that when the patrol found the murder weapon hidden in the vase just now, the patrol first saw the blood stains on the mouth of the bottle, so he was able to find the knife in the bottle later.

Polpodau:

"You mean ......"

"That's right! That blood stain was painted by Lynch! ”

Han Da'er continued:

"He was the accomplice who killed Lu Zhengxiong's mastermind, in order to blame Xie An, and let the police who came to investigate find the so-called murderer, so he deliberately smeared some blood stains on the mouth of the big vase with the mother knife!

It's just that Lynch didn't expect that while he assisted the mastermind, he also became the target of the mastermind. The mastermind should have known that the glaze pattern of the vases used for decoration was very rough, and there were sharp raw edges almost everywhere.

Usually, even if you wipe the vase, you won't touch some places in the mouth of the bottle, but if you deliberately touch the inside of the bottle with your hands, and still use your bloodstained hands to smear it, you will definitely be scratched! Among the blood stains on the mouth of the bottle, it is likely that there is also blood stains from Lynch's fingers! ”

Burroughs asked:

"If you rub it with a handkerchief or other cloth dipped in blood, won't you scratch your fingers soon?"

Han Daring said:

"There were so many people in the auction hall at that time, and although Lynch had stayed near the vase, it was very short, and the blood dripped on the cloth, which would quickly dry up or be absorbed by the cloth, and when it reached the mouth of the bottle, it might only leave a slight trace, so that it would not attract the attention of the investigators.

And if your fingers are stained with blood, you will not be too conspicuous if you touch a vase when you pass by, but if you want to use a handkerchief to stain it with blood, and then touch the vase, it will be too conspicuous!

After his finger was injured, in order not to attract people's attention, especially the wound was not deep, so he didn't have time to bandage it, and soon after the auction began, he went to the power distribution room under the pretext of going to the toilet.

He should be holding the handle of the knife brake in one hand, looking at the watch, and as soon as the appointed time arrives, he immediately pulls the brake, and the time is calculated very accurately!

The wound on his hand was small, and the toxin applied to it slowly entered the wound due to the long holding of the knife grip, and the toxin took effect much slower than usual. It wasn't until he closed the power and returned to the last storage room that he died!

This plan had to be carried out very precisely, so Lynch was a little nervous, if he had found something to bandage the wound first, and then turn off the power, maybe he would not have been poisoned and died! ”

Burroughs Road:

"So...... That female knife wasn't a murder weapon at all? ”

Polpo hesitated and began to question his own speculation.

Han Daring said:

"The knife was pre-chopped and then smeared with some blood and placed in a vase. This is also why the blood stains on the mouth of the vase have just dried up, but the color of the blood stains on the knife in the bottle seems to have dried up for a long time.

It stands to reason that a knife with blood stains will dry up faster when exposed to the air, but in a container like a vase, even if the bottle mouth is open, the moisture in the blood stains will be slower to emit more slowly, and it will never be more old than the blood stains on the bottle mouth. ”

Polpodau:

"The owner of that Zimu knife is obviously Xie An, what you just said is just inference. Maybe the blood stains on the mouth of the bottle were accidentally dripped by Xie An after he killed people and hid the knife! What you said is just one of the possibilities of speculation, and at present, it seems that Xie An's murder is the most likely! ”

Seeing Polpo's dead duck's hard mouth, Han Da'er sighed and said:

"If, as you said, the blood stains on the mouth of the vase were dripped when Xie An hid the knife, then Xie An could only wipe the blood stains on the knife during this time before putting the knife into the vase after committing the murder, so he accidentally dripped the blood stains on the mouth of the bottle.

That means that after he cut off Lu Zhengxiong's head, he didn't wipe the blade of the knife immediately, so when he returned to the vase next to the seat from the auction table, even if he accurately remembered the location in the dark and returned to the seat, there were still unwiped blood stains on the knife, but why was there no blood dripping on the ground at this distance?

Unless he wipes the blood from the knife immediately after committing the murder, he can prevent the blood from dripping to the ground before returning to the vase. There is no blood dripping from this distance on the ground, so where is the blood dripping from the mouth of the bottle? Isn't that a contradiction? ”

Polpo didn't understand what it meant to be thinking about contradictions, but from Han Daring's tone, he could understand the meaning of the word, but at this time, it was difficult for him to argue with strong words.

Han Daring said again:

"If it was really Xie An who killed Lu Zhengxiong, even if he was not splashed with blood on his face, there would be one or two blood spots splashed on him, but everyone saw it just now, Xie An had no blood on his body at all, which in itself is unlikely!

Moreover, although the mother knife is equivalent to a hidden layer of iron scabbard, itself is just a hollow iron shell, but when casting this knife, in order to be able to win by surprise and defeat the enemy, although the mother knife is hollow, it uses the same material and forging process as the child knife.

In terms of strength, it should be comparable, and according to the sharpness of the sub-knife, it is impossible to roll the blade unless you look at gold and iron or a harder object. The same is true for the mother knife, just cutting off a person's head, even if Lu Zhengxiong's neck bone is thick, it shouldn't be stronger than gold and iron, so how can it be curled?

It should be in order to make the mother knife a decapitation weapon, so he deliberately slashed the hard object in advance and caused the mother knife to curl the blade! ”

Burroughs Road:

"The people of our Durand Auction House, including me Xu Lingfeng and a few other treasure experts, didn't notice that this waist knife turned out to be a child and mother knife, could it be that the knife had been prepared before it was sent to auction?"

Han Daring said:

"You investigated the owner of the Zimu knife, but the middleman said that this knife belonged to Xie An, which shows that this knife was specially sent to your auction house to frame Xie An, and to join this auction, this person must have been premeditated for a long time!"

Han Daring did not answer Burroughs's question directly, but suddenly said:

"Actually, I already know who the murderer is, but I still need some important evidence and modus operandi!"

Not only Burroughs, but also Polpo and the patrols present were surprised, but Mei Ruohong did not seem surprised, through Han Da'er's analysis, it was obvious that he had already guessed who the murderer was.

After Mei Ruohong handed over the handkerchief to Lao Cai, she quietly returned to the basement and watched Han Dada'er analyze the case and refute Polpo's inferences, she liked to watch Han Dada'er reason and analyze like this, not only to appreciate his ability to analyze and reason, but also to see his focused expression when investigating the case, and always felt that Han Dada'er at this time seemed to be shining with the most dazzling light, as warm and warm as the noon sun.

Burroughs Road:

"Who the hell is it? Who is the murderer? ”

Although Polpo and the patrol did not ask, in addition to amazement, there was also a look of expectation in their eyes.

Han Dada'er said:

"I'm going to see Lu Zhengxiong's body again, as well as the crime scene of the auction! And Mr. Burroughs Durand, I have something else to ask you! ”

At this time, Porpo no longer had the domineering energy he had when he first arrived, and his eyes were a bit like a defeated rooster, but he still had to be strong and calm, pretending to be a bamboo in his chest.

Han Daring and Burroughs chatted as they walked, but they returned from the basement to the auction hall on the second floor, and a few people walked for a while.

Back in the auction hall, Han Daring didn't say a word, first looked around, the auction hall, the equipment storage room, the office, and the password door storage room all looked carefully, and even the light curtain wall outside the auction hall and the light pool on the top of the auction hall all flew up and jumped up to hold the wall and looked at it carefully. Even the chairs in the auction hall were checked, and finally they were gently tapping on the wooden floor.

Everyone present was just puzzled by Han Daring's unbelievable behavior, but saw that he turned his head back to the auction table, first looked at the wooden table, and then returned to the side of Lu Zhengxiong's corpse, crossed his arms, and carefully checked the location of the corpse.

Just when Han Daring was wondering why the position of Lu Zhengxiong's corpse was different from the position he was standing in before the lights went out, he saw the black jade statue on the table, the black jade chiseled gold black sky statue, and also moved its position at the moment of the black light!

Han Daring walked to the black jade statue and stretched out his hand to touch the statue, but Xu Lingfeng and the staff of the Durand Auction House in the audience hurriedly stopped:

"Be careful, this statue is very precious!"

Han Daring felt that this statue seemed to be a little different from when it was first brought up, and this feeling was especially obvious when his body covered the light of the tube lamp on the roof! He went to the stage again to take a look, but found that it was no different, and just as he was about to go on stage again to observe, he stumbled forward and almost hit the long table in front of the stage.

He himself suffered internal injuries, forced his breath, hurried back to the scene of the murder in the western-style building, and just now he had taught the French patrol a lesson, plus he worked hard to go up and down the stairs back and forth, at this time he actually felt that his strength was not enough, and his feet were a little vain.

Fortunately, he pressed on the narrow table and stood firm with his strength, so that he would not fall. Seeing this, Mei Ruohong hurriedly stepped forward to help, but Han Dada'er's attention seemed to be attracted by an auction item on the narrow table.

It is a wood-carved mountain-view pavilion placed next to the cloisonné vase, with two leather suitcases stacked in large sizes, and the carving is very exquisite.

Han Daring was looking at the wood carving, and Zhang Xi leaned over and whispered:

"My teacher said let me tell you that the real thing about this wood carving was carved by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, but this one in front of me is just an imitation of the late Qing Dynasty, just a good carving, and the materials and knife skills are not as good as the real thing!"

After hearing this, Han Daring stretched out his hand and pushed the woodcarved mountain view pavilion.

Burroughs whispered:

"This wood carving is indeed an imitation, but it is also an imitation of the Qing Dynasty, more than 100 years ago!"

Xu Lingfeng also leaned closer and said:

"This is an old gentleman's object from a wood collector, entrusted to our auction house, and all the proceeds will be used for charity, even if it is an imitation, please be careful not to damage it!"

Han Daring nodded, walked up to the auction table again, carefully examined the black jade statue, and invited the old gentleman Yan Zhiyi to come up, and asked the old gentleman a few words in a low voice. The old gentleman looked surprised when he heard this, and then he approached the statue, approached it closely, and stroked it for a while.

Because Yan Zhiyi is not only an educator, but also a famous collector and an expert in antique identification, he has a high status in the antique circle, and even Burroughs Durand respects this old gentleman very much, he stretched out his hand to touch the black jade statue, and Burroughs couldn't say anything.

Suddenly, Yan Zhiyi's expression changed, and he frowned and said:

"It's impossible!"

Just when everyone was confused by Yan Zhiyi's words, Han Daring suddenly pointed at Lang and said:

"The mystery is solved!"

Then he pointed to one of the people present and exclaimed:

"The murderer who killed Lu Zhengxiong and the painting dealer Lynch is you!"
