There's no need to figure out all the twists and turns.

It is not necessary to point out all the clues clearly.

The goal is to find the murderer.

And it has also been established that the murderer is among the people at the scene.

Exclusion, then, is also a good idea.

Eliminate all the impossibilities, and the rest is even outrageous, that is the truth.

……

Bai Yu said to Rena, "Next, I will prove your innocence. ”

Rena looked at him in a daze and slowly breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you...... But how are you going to prove it? I can't even say I'm not suspicious at all. ”

She is different from the previous Stella, she came here as a blind date, and suddenly encountered all kinds of changes, and even the details of the specific assassination were not clear.

She is the weakest, but this is not evidence to clear suspicion.

Bai Yu said unhurriedly: "Seeing that you look a little nervous, drink some tea to relieve your breath, and everyone drink some tea too." ”

Black tea has been prepared on site.

After a long speech just now, it also makes people feel a little thirsty.

Musel took the initiative to pick up the teacup and took a sip: "It tastes good." ”

Stella also nodded and said, "Indeed...... It should be Miss Lumina's tea, and her craftsmanship is superb. ”

Rena picked up her teacup and took a small sip of black tea.

The next moment, she threw down the cup in her hand in a panic, her face changed greatly, she stood up, covered her mouth and rushed to the bathroom on the first floor.

There was a loud flushing and retching sound from inside.

A nobleman looked at the teacup and asked loudly, "What did you do?" ”

Bai Yu shook his head: "I didn't do anything. ”

"Nonsense, if you didn't do anything, why did Rena react so violently?"

Bai Yu said lightly: "The tea is here, don't believe it, can you taste it yourself?" ”

The nobleman's expression flickered.

At this time, Lumina stood up, and she said softly: "I made the tea, if there is anything wrong with it, it is also my responsibility, please let me try it." ”

As he spoke, he ignored the dissuasion of the people around him and drank the black tea.

She put down the teacup, let out a sigh, and said with a puzzled look, "There's no problem...... Or is the tea I brewed so bad that it is hard to drink? ”

Seeing Lumina was no different, and the others couldn't help but start to be suspicious, not understanding what was going on.

Whispers rang out from the crowd.

Smack——!

Bai Yu clapped his hands to make a crisp sound, forcing silence.

He spread his hands and said, "Since there is no problem with tea, then naturally there is a problem with people...... Don't mind me going on, Miss Rena. ”

The bathroom door opened, and Rena stepped out timidly, holding the doorknob, her face unnaturally morbidly pale.

Walking back to the couch and sitting down with her legs together, she whispered, "Please continue." ”

Bai Yu said bluntly: "The reason why I can judge Miss Rena's innocence is because she has suffered from a psychological illness - anorexia. ”

"What?"

"Anorexia?"

"It's the first time I've heard of it."

The crowd stirred for a moment, and a group of nobles looked at each other.

Bai Yu raised her hand, suppressed the voice of argument, and continued: "Her anorexia is not an aversion to food, but an aversion to blood...... So the black tea with blood added this time, as well as the dessert with blood added to it last time, all made her feel physiologically uncomfortable. ”

Miss Rena's skin is even paler, and she can be seen to be quite unhealthy, because the Bloodline needs to feed on blood to survive, and as a result of her anorexia, her body is chronically deprived of nutrients...... It's like low blood sugar caused by lack of food in humans. ”

"Miss Rena, am I telling the truth?"

Rena raised her eyes, the secret had been exposed, and she didn't need to continue to hide it, but she breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "Yes, I have suffered from this disease, I have always had it, but I could bear it before, and now I ......"

"Because after seeing the scene of the death of the prince and Julia, this illness has been exacerbated, right?" Bai Yu naturally took over the topic: "Every time I taste the taste of blood, I think of the corpses I saw and a large amount of bloodstains. ”

"Hmm......" Rena bit her lower lip and wiped the corners of her eyes, "I often have nightmares. ”

Anorexia is a mental illness in which the patient is not unable to eat, but does not want to and resists, which are all caused by the mental stress brought about by the environment in which they live.

Mussel cast a sympathetic look, and when she did her background check, she didn't notice it, thinking that she was just born weak.

Turning the subject back to the case, Stella said, "I understand, because she is anorexic, so she can't have the urge to suck blood, and seeing a corpse can cause such a huge mental stress, let alone killing." ”

"This is one reason, and the other is that Julia's neck has a tooth mark wound left by the blood extraction, which can be determined to be a predatory behavior of the blood clan, and she suffers from anorexia, so naturally it is impossible to be the murderer." Bai Yu's coffin concluded: "So Miss Rena is innocent." ”

No one objected.

This is a conclusion based on evidence that exists in reality.

When the characteristics of the suspected subject contradict the portrait of the murderer, it is clear who is innocent.

Bai Yu's series of statements and evidence to clear the suspicion of the two have realistic evidence, and the logical chain is complete and clear.

There is no room for rebuttal and debate.

No one with a normal IQ can say anything questioning.

Jeanne quietly looked at the remaining two.

According to Bai Yu's inference, the murderer was between them.

Rebecca's expression looked a little nervous, and Lumina just picked up the teacup and drank the tea silently, looking calm.

"So, next."

The people who listened quietly were shocked.

If it was said that it was because Bai Yu's cultivation realm and strength were fearful and quiet before, then now his words themselves have begun to carry a surging power.

It is a correctness that cannot be ignored.

Bai Yu said, "Miss Lumina." ”

"I'm here." Lumina put down her teacup and smiled and said, "Is the next thing to prove my innocence?" Or do you want to prove that I'm the murderer? ”

Bai Yu was noncommittal, but asked, "I may have to reveal some secrets about you next, I hope you don't mind." ”

"Please take care of yourself." Lumina bowed her head, and in the scene, she always maintained an elegant aristocratic posture, and she was overjoyed.

"Before we begin, I want everyone to look at the Frostbringer's greatsword."

Bai Yu raised his hand, and the big sword automatically floated under the effect of Wang Qi's force field, suspended in midair, and then pierced into the ground of the hall, immediately spreading a burst of cold air.

"This great sword is a weapon that kills the prince's head."

"It's been tested, there's no doubt about it."

"When I found this sword, in addition to confirming that it was a decapitation weapon, there was another point, that is, the traces left on the sword."

Everyone's eyes fell on the great sword.

Bai Yu said eloquently: "This big sword is an ancient weapon, with a mystery, not a blade that ordinary people can drive. ”

"If you use it at will, you will be frozen and hurt by its coldness, even if it is my realm, I don't dare to use it at will, otherwise I will be frostbitten."

"Since the murderer has used this sword, he must have adopted some special way to resist its bitter cold."

"And in this way, it left some traces on the big sword."

"The murderer did not hesitate to hide this big sword in the subspace, just to cover up the traces left on the murder weapon, because these marks may be a fatal weakness for her."

A nobleman asked, "I don't seem to see any traces, except for the blood on the sword." ”

"Well......" Bai Yu said, "now that these traces have faded, some way needs to be made to make it visible." ”

As he spoke, he pressed his right hand to the top of the hilt of the sword, injecting internal breath.

The runes on the Frostbringer were lit up, and immediately the temperature in the hall began to plummet, the ground froze, and the air seemed to be filled with a cold north wind.

Meantime......

Everyone could clearly see that finger marks that glowed faintly appeared on the hilt of the sword.

The palm prints and fingerprints were very clear, and there was a distinct color difference with the activated sword.

"Through this trace, it can be clearly distinguished that the murderer is holding a sword in both hands, with his left hand on top and his right hand on bottom."

After a brief moment of amazement, the others looked at each other.

Although it is very good to be able to find traces, is there any use for the palm prints left by these hands?

Isn't it true that anyone with a double sword is like this?

Or is there something special about this sword-wielding movement?

"No, it's important."

Bai Yu insisted on the pronunciation of each word: "It can be judged by the traces on the big sword that when the murderer held the big sword, he was dual-wielding...... And it used all ten fingers. ”

At this point, the nobleman behind Lumina already had some understanding, and his tense hands were put back on his knees.

"I remember." Bai Yu turned to Lumina: "Miss Lumina herself said that she is good at bows and arrows, but not at swordsmanship. ”

"Yes." Lumina directly admitted: "Is there anything about this? ”

"I remember that the family behind you is a swordsmanship family." Mussell asked, "You should have received the highest level of swordsmanship education. ”

Lumina turned the teacup: "Because I prefer bows and arrows." ”

"It may not be a lie, but it's not all true." Bai Yu said: "When I visited before, I could have used my other hand to catch the fallen teacup, but I didn't do anything, just watched it fall and break. ”

"Then I made sure that you were good at bows and arrows, not swordsmanship."

"Now, can you show me your palm?"

Lumina narrowed her eyes slightly: "This request is really bold...... If it weren't for this occasion, I'm afraid I'd have poured you black tea on the face. ”

After a brief hesitation, she raised her hands truthfully.

Daxia took a teacup and placed it on her left hand, but not in the palm of her left hand, but on her fingers.

Then, as if her fingers couldn't bear the pressure, the teacup rolled down, and before it was about to break into pieces, it was picked up by Bai Yu and put it back on the table.

Everyone who watched this scene was amazed.

"As you can see." Bai Yu said, "Miss Lumina's left hand has at least three fingers that cannot be brought together...... In other words, most of her left hand had been destroyed. ”

The nobleman standing behind Lumina sighed heavily: "The abolition of Miss's left hand is a secret within the family, and almost no one knows about it, but this was a few years ago, and it is inevitable that it will be announced now, I hope you can keep it a secret." ”

Lumina's face was indifferent, she had obviously accepted this fact.

Bai Yu turned, pulled out the Frost Bringer, and put it back in place.

"This greatsword is extremely demanding for the user."

"Miss Lumina, however, could not hold a two-handed sword, let alone lift it up to kill."

"The palm prints left on the hilt of the two-handed sword prove that there are ten finger marks."

"Therefore, Miss Lumina is innocent."

Don't wait for others to breathe a sigh of relief.

Bai Yu continued to speak without being shocked.

"And Peggy Frankimir, one of the five suspects who is still missing, I came here with an invitation from her."

"Now, I'm going to prove her innocence myself."

"There are two reasons for this."

"First."

"I've read all the correspondence between her and her roommate, and it says that she's ready to leave Romania."

"If she is the murderer, why did she notify me and her best friend in advance to come to Romania?"

"This assassination is obviously premeditated for a long time, not a crime of passion."

"Second."

"When Peggy disappeared, it was confirmed that she was above the top."

"The tower was revealed, and the staircase to the upper floors had been closed."

"The staircase is the only way to connect the upper and lower floors."

"Peggy simply can't go up the stairs to the bedroom area on the second floor and the hall on the first floor."

"However, the killer can contain the Frostbringer in the subspace at the end of the corridor on the second floor."

"This proves that the murderer must have been located in the bedroom area on the second floor."

"So Peggy can't be the murderer."

"The reason why she disappeared is most likely out of necessity."

"Because the murderer needs a scapegoat."

Unconsciously, only Bai Yu's voice alone was left at the scene.

After clearing Peggy's suspicions.

Bai Yu turned around and announced the end of the reasoning in a flat tone.

"Of the remaining four, only one person cannot be dismissed."

"Then the murderer can only be you."

"Rebecca Loew."
