Maybe that vent wasn't meant to get the killer in and out at all!

Thinking of this, Di Xue hurriedly sat up, put on her clothes and walked out.

Lao Yang, the housekeeper of the Di Mansion who was woken up, hurriedly asked, "Miss, it's so late, where are you going!" ”

Di Xue turned over and said without looking back: "Dali Temple! ”

Hurry up and rush to Dali Temple, Di Xue didn't pay attention to other people's greetings after entering, and went straight to the side room where the file was placed.

The north wind immediately fainted when he entered the kitchen, Di Xue sorted out the information and came to a conclusion that in addition to the four members of the Wang family and Zhou Huai, there was a sixth person in the house that day!

It was only at this time that Di Xue fully believed that Zhou Huai was framed.

After thinking about it, Di Xue hurriedly walked out of the house, and had to go back to the small courtyard to take a look!

"My lord, where are you going so late!" Han Shuqiang asked with a spirit.

"You came just in time, gather the idle patrols in the courtyard, go to the small courtyard with me, and send someone to call Chu Ran by the way!"

After Di Xue finished speaking, she hurriedly flew on her horse and rushed towards the small courtyard.

When she arrived at the gate of the small courtyard, Di Xue greeted the patrol guarding the gate politely, and then entered the courtyard.

Feeling that the north wind was still blowing, Di Xue immediately walked through the kitchen into the inner room, closed the doors and windows, and lit a candle, which was blown by the wind.

The wind direction on the day of the crime was the same as today, and the vent was not opened for entry and exit at all, but to make the room dim and provide cover for the murderer's disguise!

Di Xue pushed open the door of the inner room and entered the kitchen, and after a closer look, there were indeed some bumps on the doorknob.

Di Xue suddenly thought of the abrupt pile of firewood in the kitchen.

It's already a little damp when I pick up one, and it rains heavily in Yuanjing after autumn, so it seems that it has been placed here a long time ago.

Draw at the scratches, and sure enough, the murderer used this wood with the two iron rings protruding next to it to jam the inner door, so the Wang family couldn't push the door out after entering the inner room!

But how did the murderer take advantage of the extinguishing of the candle and then transport Zhou Huai to the house, if he opened the door and dragged it in, it would definitely take time, and he would also be discovered by Wang Xiaoya.

That's right! The roofs of the whole house are connected, and thinking of this, Di Xue jumped onto the beam.

Then I looked carefully into the roof between the kitchen and the inner room, and sure enough, there were signs that the wooden planks had been removed.

"Di Xue, why did you come here so late, is there something new to discover!" Chu Ran rubbed his eyes and walked in with a yawn.

"You're just in time, hurry up and help me test it!" Di Xue said excitedly.

Before Chu Ran could react, he was tied up by Di Xue and hung on the beam of the kitchen frontal room!

"Di Xue, you don't want to kill people, do you!" Chu Ran said jokingly.

Di Xue burst out laughing: "Be serious, don't be afraid for a while, I'll catch you." ”

A long section was reserved at the other end of the rope tied to Chu Ran's body, Di Xue pinched it in his hand, and then threw it gently, and the rope landed firmly on the beam leading to the inner room.

The sound is so small that you can't spot it if you don't listen carefully!

Then Di Xue walked into the inner room, looked at the position, blew out the candle, and gently jumped to pull the rope that had just been thrown in.

Pulled Chu Ran into the inner room through the gap in the roof, and then slashed with a knife, and the rope that tied Chu Ran was broken.

Chu Ran's whole person fell down, Di Xue tapped her toes again, and Chu Ran fell into a soft embrace.

"Didn't scare you!" Di Xue landed steadily and asked the person in her arms.

"Hmm." Chu Ran's mosquito-like voice came out, fortunately it was dark at this time, otherwise she would see her red cheeks again!

Just when Chu Ran wanted to say something, the strength on his body suddenly disappeared, and Di Xue had already let go.

"Did you solve the case like this before?" Chu Ran asked.

With a bang, Di Xue lit the candles, and the warm yellow light filled the entire room.

"That's not it, didn't you participate in the case I handled in Dali Temple! Besides, if you don't come, I'll tie up a straw man and test it! ”

Di Xue looked at the broken rope in her hand and said casually.

I see, it's okay, it's okay, Chu Ran thought.

Suddenly, the sword light flashed, and Di Xue had already broken the rope tied to Chu Ran's body and held it in his hand.

Then he flew up and came to the roof of the kitchen, cut the knots tied to the beams, and held them in his hands.

Finally jump into the kitchen.

"If I were the murderer, I would have done it, but how did I get out of the house!" Di Xue thought and paced back and forth.

Suddenly she looked at the soles of her feet, could it!

After thinking about it, Di Xue hurriedly walked out of the house: "Han Shu, you take a few patrols and take a shovel and come with me!" ”

After Han Shu got the order, he hurriedly went to call someone, and Di Xue and Chu Ran came to the dry toilet that they had checked during the day.

Di Xue went in and took out the wooden lid in the dry toilet: "Dig down from here, pay attention to only pick soft soil to dig!" ”

So several patrols began to dig in the dry toilet, digging and digging, and one of the patrolmen said in surprise:

"My lord, I dug it, and the soil is really loose underneath, it seems that someone dug the tunnel before!"

Chu Ran looked at Di Xue and probably understood her intentions: "This dry toilet is just a cover-up, so the people behind the bureau immediately demolished the previous toilet after buying the yard, and then chose the place closest to the house to build a new one!" ”

Di Xue nodded: "That's why you were hung by new wood only after you came." ”

"And in order to imitate the clothes that Zhou Huai wore that day, he could only ask the tailor to make them temporarily, but Zhou Huai's clothes were all customized from the Thousand Bird Pavilion, and he couldn't find the same material for a while!" Chu Ran said.

Di Xue continued with great agreement: "So the murderer or the person behind him found materials with a similar style, but a lot of poor quality, and then an eight-year-old girl easily tore the corners of his clothes!" ”

But there is another problem at the moment, that is, how did he escape from the courtyard, the courtyard was surrounded by people from Dali Temple that day, it was impossible for anyone to fish in troubled waters, Di Xue looked at Chu Ran, only to see him frowning, it seems that he is the same as his own confused point.

After a while, there was the sound of things falling from the house, and then I only heard Han Shu shouting loudly: "It's through, come quickly!" ”

Di Xue and Chu Ran hurriedly rushed over, watching Han Shu, who was covered in dirt, struggling to squeeze out of the hole.

And the hole was under the stove in the kitchen, Di Xue picked up the pot that fell next to him, thought about it, and gently threw the pot high, and the whole body poked into the hole.

As the pot fell, Di Xue gently picked it up with her foot, and the pot fell steadily on the stove, and no flaws could be seen from the outside.

After entering the tunnel, Di Xue smelled the aroma she had smelled in the dry toilet, and the murderer did escape in this way, but what was the dull sound that Wang Xiaoya mentioned later!

After coming out of the cave, Di Xue was covered in dirt, and the sky was already slightly bright.

Di Xue looked at Chu Ran, both of whom looked tired:

"There was such a big commotion tonight, the early dynasty will definitely be targeted, and now you and I have to drive out tomorrow's fold!"

Chu Ran nodded wisely, "I have ordered someone to fetch paper and ink, you follow me to the carriage to rest, and I will write the excerpt!" ”

Di Xue didn't care about being polite, and as soon as she drew her sword and danced, most of the soil on her body fell off, and the two got into the carriage together.

Chu Ran carefully wrote the fold on the side, and Di Xue supported her head with her hand.

Sleepiness gradually hit, and I involuntarily closed my eyes.

Between sleep, it seems to lie in a warm embrace, and the faint agarwood smell is good!
