Chapter 143: An Unexpected Discovery, an Unexpected Thief!
Huizhi and Huiyuan saw that the first Damo Academy of the Great Temple was so polite to Lin Feng, and for a while, they couldn't help but become more curious about Lin Feng's identity.
Hui Zhi gave Hui Yuan a look, and Hui Yuan secretly called a little nun and asked, "Who is this Lin Si Zheng?" Why do you have so much faith in him? β
The little nun glanced at Lin Feng with admiration and respect, and said: "Lin Sizheng is judging the case like a god, as long as it is a case he handles, no matter how complicated the case is, there is nothing that Lin Sizheng can't solve, so Lin Sizheng is coming to help us now, and we will definitely be able to solve the case quickly." β
Huiyuan couldn't believe it: "He's so powerful? β
Seeing that Huiyuan questioned Lin Feng, the little nun frowned slightly and said, "I'll just talk to you about a few cases, and you'll know." β
Then, the little nun told the storyteller the most widely spread Yushitai arson case and Zhao Deshun case in the most concise words.
The complicated processes in the middle, the insidious calculations, she didn't go into detail in order to save time, but even so, it still made Huiyuan and Huizhi's faces change greatly.
Looking at Lin Feng's expression, he was full of shock, and even faintly had a hint of jealousy and awe.
The two glanced at each other, and Hui Zhi spoke: "In this way, this Lin Si is really powerful, with him to investigate the case, if you want to come to the death of Senior Sister Huiyun, the truth will definitely be revealed quickly." β
The little nun nodded heavily, she looked at Lin Feng, full of confidence: "Lin Sizheng will definitely be able to help us find out the truth and solve our crisis." β
When Huizhi heard this, he subconsciously looked at Huiyuan, with an inquiring look in his eyes, and saw Huiyuan frowning and thinking about it, and then shook his head, Huizhi saw this, nodded slightly, and said no more.
The two of them no longer had the aggressiveness they had when they faced Jinglan before, they just stared at Lin Feng with nervous expressions.
After Lin Feng talked to De Miao, he said to Mrs. Jingci: "Mrs. Jingci, open the door, this official will go and see the scene." β
When Mrs. Jingci heard this, she did not hesitate, she said directly to Jinglan: "Senior sister, open the lock." β
Jinglan nodded, quickly took out a key from her arms, she inserted the key into the lock hole, and with a slight turn, she heard a crisp "click" sound.
The lock was opened.
Removing the lock, Jinglan gently pushed, and the door of the Buddha hall was pushed open.
And as the door was pushed open, the first thing that caught Lin Feng's eyes were the three huge Buddha statues with gold paint in front of him, and a figure hanging on the beam in front of the Buddha statue.
Her face was pale, her eyes bulged out, and her tongue sticking out.
A gust of wind blew in from the doorway, shaking the figure directly.
The hanged man looked hideous, extremely terrifying, his eyes stared at the people at the door, and the golden Buddha behind him was kind and full of compassion.
"Miss Man'er, if you are afraid, don't force yourself to see it, just stay outside the door."
Lin Feng was afraid that Xiao Man'er, a beautiful and gentle girl, would be frightened by the dead corpse, so he wanted to remind Xiao Man'er that he didn't have to be reluctant, but who knew that when he looked at Xiao Man'er, the whole person couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Because he found that Xiao Man'er's eyes were shining, looking at the dead body hanging in mid-air, with a look of excitement and excitement eager to try, like this, how could he be a little scared?
This made Lin Feng stunned for a moment, wondering if he had seen it wrong.
He couldn't help but close his eyes, and then opened them again, wanting to open them in a different way, and then found that Xiao Man'er's eyes were even brighter when he looked at the dead corpse.
Get! It seems that she thinks too much, Xiao Man'er, this girl, is really different from other women, she doesn't love beauty makeup and dead corpses...... Special enough, I like it more!
Lin Feng saw that Xiao Man'er was not afraid, so he no longer worried about Xiao Man'er, and walked directly into the Buddha hall.
He came to the deceased and looked around.
I saw a table at the feet of the deceased.
By this time, however, the table had toppled over, and the tablecloths and wooden trays on the table were scattered around.
Mrs. Jingci came to Lin Feng's side, saw Lin Feng looking at the table, and said, "The Jinyun robe was placed in the tray on the table, and it has been placed here since the Jinyun robe arrived at our Half Moon Nunnery. β
Lin Feng nodded.
When he came to the foot of the table, he found that the leg was right at the foot of the deceased.
Lin Feng touched his chin and said, "It seems that when the table was not overturned, it was just below the deceased. β
Master Jingci nodded hurriedly: "That's right, the table was placed here at that time. β
Lin Feng thought for a moment and straightened the table.
Then he found that the dead man's feet had landed on the table, and he happened to be in contact with the table.
When Xiao Man'er saw this scene, her smart eyes flashed with light, and she said, "Could it be that Master Huiyun committed suicide?" She stood on the table and hanged herself, then kicked it down, and there was no support under her feet, and she hanged here. β
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help whispering.
"Is it really hanging?"
"Looking like this, it does look like hanging yourself."
"But why did she hang herself in the Buddha hall?"
"yes, why did you choose this place?"
The nuns whispered.
Huiyuan and Huizhi glanced at each other, and Huiyuan said, "Senior Sister Huiyun is fine, why did she hang herself?" I don't believe she would hang herself for no reason. β
Hearing these words, Master Jingci looked at Lin Feng with a worried expression.
Seeing that Lin Feng was not affected by others at all, he suddenly jumped onto the table, then stood up and faced Huiyun's corpse face to face.
From an extremely close distance, Lin Feng could clearly see Huiyun's pale face and his hideous and terrifying expression after death.
Self-hanging is one of the most painful ways to die, and it usually leaves a very obvious hideous expression on the face, and if ordinary people see it, they will definitely have nightmares for several days in a row.
However, Lin Feng didn't care about such a hideous face, he carefully checked the neck of the deceased, looked at the scars on the deceased's neck, and then turned around the deceased, and after making sure that there was no omission, Lin Feng took the deceased down and carefully flattened it to the ground.
He crouched down and re-examined the body of the deceased in more detail.
While inspecting, Lin Feng said: "The deceased's clothes are slightly disheveled, and there are traces of struggle. β
He raised the deceased's right hand, observed it for a moment, and said, "The nails have white marks that are folded, and there is flesh and blood tissue in the nails......"
Lin Feng looked at the neck of the deceased, looked at a few blood marks on the front side of the neck, and said: "Preliminary judgment, the flesh and blood tissue in the nails is the deceased's own flesh and blood, it should be that when the deceased was struggling to resist, his hands subconsciously grabbed the rope holding his neck, and wanted to pull it outward, but the nails accidentally picked at the neck, causing a wound." β
Lin Feng put down the deceased's hand, then grabbed the deceased's head with both hands, turned left and right, and said, "There are two strangulation marks on the deceased's neck. β
"A strangulation slanted upward, caused by the rope above the head."
"And another strangulation mark is horizontal and backwards, gathering at the back of the neck."
"So it's clear ......"
Lin Feng raised his head and looked at Master Jingci and the others, and said, "The deceased should have been left behind by someone first, and his neck was strangled with a rope until he was strangled to death. β
"After that, in order to fake the result of the deceased's self-hanging, the murderer created the illusion of self-hanging."
Listening to Lin Feng's words, the faces of everyone present changed.
"What? Not suicide! Is he killed!? β
"Uncle Huiyun was killed!"
"This ...... Who killed Uncle Huiyun? β
The little nuns turned pale with fright.
Jing Lan and Jing Ci's faces were also very ugly.
Huiyuan gritted his teeth and said coldly: "Senior Sister Huiyun was really killed by someone!" She was killed in your Half Moon Temple, and the murderer must be your Half Moon Temple! β
Hui Zhi looked at Jing Ci and said, "Master Jing Ci, you should give us an explanation, right?" First of all, the Jinyun robe disappeared for no reason, and now my junior sister has been killed, this incident, if you have no reasonable explanation for the half-moon nunnery, the poor nun will never give up! β
Jingci's face changed slightly, and she said; "The poor nun has already asked Lin Sizheng to investigate, I believe that Lin Sizheng will be able to find out everything soon, and please give us a little time, if all this is really done by the people of Banyue Nunnery, the poor nun will never protect his shortcomings."
Hearing this, Huizhi glanced at Lin Feng, she seemed to be a little in awe of Lin Feng, her expression flickered for a moment, and then she flicked her sleeves: "I hope you don't let us down." β
Seeing that Huizhi didn't ask directly, Jing Ci breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she looked at Lin Feng and said, "Lin Sizheng, how is it?" Can you find out the real culprit? β
Lin Feng shook his head and said, "If you want to find out the real murderer, you must at least find the scene of the crime first." β
"The scene of the crime?"
Jing Ci was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said, "Isn't this the scene of the crime?" β
Lin Feng shook his head, and he said, "Look at Master Huiyun's robe. β
"Robes?" Jingci was stunned and hurriedly looked at Huiyun.
I heard Lin Feng say: "The hem of Master Huiyun's robe is stained with obvious soil, and this dirt is concentrated behind Master Huiyun, mainly in the area from Master Huiyun's butt to her feet. β
"This shows that Master Huiyun must have struggled in a place with dirt, and looking at the direction of the dirt on her clothes, it is obvious that it is moving in the direction of her feet......"
"If the official's expectation is good, the situation should be like this......"
Lin Feng walked to the top of Huiyun's head, then clasped his hands weakly, and said, "The murderer took advantage of Huiyun's inattention, directly tied Huiyun's neck with a rope, and then dragged it backwards hard. β
Master Huiyun was naturally unwilling, so she sat down directly and struggled hard to prevent herself from being dragged away.
"But her strength is not as good as the murderer, and after all, she was dragged away by the murderer, and the soil on her body was left at that time."
"That is to say......"
Lin Feng looked at Jing Ci and the others, and said, "The place where the murderer committed the murder should be an area with a lot of dirt, and looking at the dirt on the deceased's clothes, those mud should be relatively wet. β
"Master Huiyun was attacked by the murderer like this, it is impossible that she did not react, she probably screamed, but no one heard it, indicating that this area should not be too close to where the others were resting."
Lin Feng said: "Master Jingci, what are the places that meet these conditions in the Half Moon Nunnery?" β
Seeing Lin Feng's words, everyone directly deduced the situation at the scene of the crime, and couldn't help but widen their eyes in shock.
"Lin Temple is just right!"
"I was able to deduce the scene of the crime at once."
"I just said that there is a forest temple is ongoing, and the case will definitely be found out soon."
The little nuns were pleasantly surprised, and when Xiao Man'er heard this, her bright eyes were also full of smiles.
Hui Zhi and Hui Yuan glanced at each other, and they became more and more in awe of Lin Feng.
And Jing Ci was happy in her heart, she thought carefully for a moment, and hurriedly said: "The mountain behind the Half Moon Nunnery is a forest, and the situation there is completely in line with Lin Sizheng's conditions. β
"Back Mountain?"
Lin Feng asked, "Is the back mountain very big?" β
Jingci nodded: "It's not small, it's several times the size of our Half Moon Nunnery." β
"Can I leave the Half Moon Temple from the back mountain?" Lin Feng asked again.
Jing Ci shook his head: "There is a cliff at the end of the back mountain, there is no way down the mountain, if you want to leave the Half Moon Nunnery, you can only leave from the main gate." β
At this time, Jinglan said: "Our main gate will be locked every time the pilgrims leave, and there are people who live nearby, guarding the gate, and the poor nun has asked, and no one has left the main gate last night. β
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "In other words, the person who killed Master Huiyun is still in your Half Moon Nunnery?" β
As soon as these words came out, the little nuns' faces turned pale, and they were busy looking at the others nervously and vigilantly.
Huizhi and Huiyuan also subconsciously took a step back and kept their distance from the others.
Even though Jingci was very reluctant to admit this, she couldn't help but nod: "If the murderer has no other means to leave, it can indeed only be in the Half Moon Nunnery." β
Lin Feng bowed slightly.
His eyes swept over the nuns present, and he saw that these nuns looked nervous and panicked, and they couldn't tell who had a problem at a glance.
He thought for a while, retracted his gaze, and said: "The area of the back mountain is a bit large, based on the analysis of the official just now, there is no way to point to a certain place more specifically, if you look for it like this, I am afraid that you will not be able to find the scene of the crime for a while and a half, and the traces of the scene of the crime may not be obvious, if a large number of people go to look for it, it may also destroy the scene of the crime......"
When Mrs. Jingci heard this, she couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart: "Then what should I do?" β
Lin Feng looked at the deceased again and said, "Let's see if we can find other clues." β
"And in addition to the scene of the crime, how the deceased was brought in by the murderer is also debatable."
Lin Feng said: "According to Master Jingci, there are only two keys to open the Buddha Hall, but you didn't come to open the lock last night, so the problem comes, the lock is not opened...... How did the murderer bring the dead in after killing them? β
"In the entire Half Moon Temple, there is no place more difficult to enter than this Buddha hall, right? So why did the murderer choose this place to create the illusion that the deceased hanged himself? Is she just trying to make it difficult for herself? Or is there some other reason why this must be done? β
"Not to mention ......"
Lin Feng looked at everyone and said, "What about that very important Jinyun robe?" Where did it go? Did the killer steal it? Or is there something else going on? β
Listening to Lin Feng's question, all the nuns had a blank look on their faces.
They were completely stunned by Lin Feng's questioning.
None of them can answer these questions.
Xiao Man'er's moist eyes also kept flashing with thoughts, but soon, she gave up and shook her head.
There are no clues or evidence, and I can't even find a direction for random guessing.
Lin Feng didn't look disappointed when he saw everyone shaking their heads, after all, if these nuns could give an answer, the case would have been solved a long time ago.
He thought for a moment and asked Jingci, "Master, have you always carried the key to the Buddha Hall close to you?" Does anyone else have a chance to touch it? β
When Jing Ci heard this, he said without hesitation: "This Buddha hall is the most important place in our Half Moon Nunnery, the keys are carried by the poor nun and the junior sister, and we usually open and lock the door, we have done it personally, and we have never faked others." β
Lin Feng said: "In other words, it is impossible for someone to take the opportunity to take your key and secretly match one?" β
Jing Ci nodded: "At least here in the poor nuns, no one has a chance to touch the key." β
Jing Lan was also busy: "It's the same here for poor nuns, the key has never been touched by others. β
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes: "Interesting, the key has not been touched by anyone else, and the lock is intact and has not been broken...... So, how did the murderer get in? And how did you come in with a corpse? β
Everyone else was puzzled.
Jing Ci frowned and said, "This is exactly what the poor nun can't figure out. β
Lin Feng looked at the window, the windows here were all sealed and couldn't be opened at all, which meant that the murderer couldn't come in through the window.
But if the key is not lost, the lock is not broken...... The murderer didn't come in through the window, so where else could the murderer enter?
Is there anything else that can't be done here?
Lin Feng expressed his suspicions to Jing Ci.
When Ke Jingci heard this, she shook her head without hesitation: "There can't be any secret passages, we have people cleaning here every day, and we won't let go of every location, if there is a secret passage, it will be discovered a long time ago." β
"Not to mention that the poor nun has been in the Half Moon Nunnery for decades, and I haven't heard of any secret channels here."
There are no secret passages either......
Lin Feng frowned slightly, and he looked around the room again.
He didn't believe that a large living person with a corpse could appear here out of thin air.
There must be some clue that I didn't find.
It's not a door, it's not a window, it's not a tunnel...... Is there any other way to get in and out of here?
What did you overlook......
Lin Feng's gaze swept inch by inch in the Buddha hall, and at this moment, Lin Feng's eyes flashed: "That's ......"
He suddenly hurried over to the tablecloth scattered on the floor, picked it up, and laid it out on the table again.
Then Lin Feng approached the tablecloth, looked at it, and suddenly stretched out his fingertips and pinched a small handful of green things on the tablecloth.
Looking at the things on his fingertips, his eyes suddenly opened and said, "I know!" β
Looking at Lin Feng's strange behavior and listening to Lin Feng's words, Master Jingci hurriedly said, "Lin Sizheng, what do you know?" β
Lin Feng looked at Master Jingci, a smile flashed in his dark eyes, and said, "I know how they entered this Buddha Hall. β
Master Jingci was stunned at first, and then her eyes suddenly lit up, and her face couldn't help showing excitement, and said, "Really? Do you know how the killer got in? β
When the others heard this, they also showed surprise.
Huizhi and Huiyuan looked at Lin Feng with shocked expressions, and Huiyuan couldn't help but say, "You know this?" β
The corners of Xiao Man'er's lips were lightly raised, and she looked at Lin Feng with anticipation.
Lin Feng didn't sell Guan Zi, and said, "Master Jingci, what do you see in my hand?" β
Master Jingci took a closer look and guessed, "This ...... Something like moss? β
"Moss?" Everyone was stunned.
"Mrs. Shi really has good eyesight!"
Lin Feng looked at Jing Ci and said, "That's right, this is moss!" β
"I found this moss from the tablecloth, and Mrs. Shi thinks ...... Why is there moss on this tablecloth that should be very clean? β
"This ...... The poor nun does not know. Jingci frowned and said, "And there is no moss in our nunnery...... The poor monk had never seen moss. β
Lin Feng smiled and said, "Master Tai, don't say it so absolutely, this moss has a very strong vitality, and it is easy to grow in a slightly humid place." β
"For example......
Lin Feng raised his finger, pointed upward, and said, "On the roof tiles of this Buddha hall, I think there should be a large amount of moss growing. β
Jingci was stunned: "The roof tiles? β
She didn't understand what Lin Feng meant, but the smart Xiao Man'er's smart eyes suddenly flashed.
She looked at Lin Feng suddenly, her wonderful eyes were full of wisdom, and said, "Lin Sizheng, do you mean to ...... The murderer, the Buddha hall who entered from the roof? β
"What!?"
"Rooftop?"
"This ...... Are you sure? β
When the nuns heard Xiao Man'er's words, they were all stunned.
Jingci raised her head even more violently, staring closely at the roof above her head.
Lin Feng glanced at Xiao Man'er and said with a smile: "Miss Xiao and I really have a heart. β
He nodded, "Not bad! The official speculated that the murderer should have climbed onto the roof, then lifted the tiles, and finally lowered a rope from the roof and followed the rope into the Buddha hall. β
"Look at the tablecloth."
As he spoke, he pointed to the tablecloth and said, "The tablecloth was originally placed on the table, and you specially laid a tablecloth for the table in order to place the Jinyun robe and look good. β
"And Mrs. Jingci also said that the Jinyun robe is always guarded during the day, which means that no one can get close to the table."
"In that case, no one will have a chance to stain the tablecloth, let alone drop moss on it that even Mrs. Jingci has never seen in the nunnery."
"Therefore, the only people who can drop moss on the tablecloth are murderers and the dead."
"Combined with the fact that you can't find moss on the surface of your nunnery, then the only place where moss can exist is where you can't see it with your naked eye, such as the roof...... Putting all this together, it is natural to conclude how the murderer came in. β
Listening to Lin Feng's reasoned and well-founded analysis, Rao is a calm Jingci Master, and his face couldn't help but show excitement.
"What Lin Sizheng said is reasonable, very reasonable!"
Jinglan also nodded heavily: "So, the murderer is really the Buddha Hall who entered from the roof!" β
When the little nuns heard this, they were even more excited and jumped up.
Seeing this, Lin Feng said with a smile: "But all this is just the official's speculation after all, so we still need to verify whether this is the case or not." β
When Jing Ci heard this, she immediately said: "Poor nuns, let people climb on the roof to investigate." β
Lin Feng smiled: "Such a dangerous thing, let's let the big men do it." β
As he spoke, he looked at the people of Puguang Temple who were standing aside eating melons, and said with a smile: "Master Demiao, you must think that this kind of thing should be done by us men, right?" β
De Miao's eyelids jumped, and when he saw that the nuns were all dumbfounded, he had no choice but to fold his hands and say, "Amitabha, of course. β
Then, he arranged for two right-hand disciples to climb to the roof of the house to inspect it.
Seeing this, the nuns hurriedly thanked Lin Feng.
Lin Feng smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's all what this official should do." β
De Miao's eyelids jumped fiercely again, he didn't understand very much, it was obvious that the matter of climbing high was done by the monks of their Puguang Temple, why did these nuns thank Lin Feng?
Of course, Lin Feng wouldn't explain this, just smiled and waited for the results of the verification.
Not long after, the crowd suddenly heard the sound of being trampled on the tiles above their heads.
Then they heard the voice of a monk on the roof of the house: "Sure enough, there is a lot of moss on the tiles." β
"And there are traces of people stepping on the moss, and a lot of moss has been trampled on."
Hearing the monk's words, the nuns of the Half Moon Nunnery suddenly cried out in surprise.
"Lin Sizheng is right, it is really as Lin Sizheng said!"
"Lin Sizheng is really too powerful, and he cracked the murderer's means of entering the Buddha Hall at once!"
The little nuns who were ignorant of the world all looked at Lin Feng with admiration.
And Huizhi and Huiyuan had shocks and shocks on their faces that couldn't be hidden.
Huiyuan couldn't help but exclaimed: "He, he's really amazing!" β
Hui Zhi couldn't help but say: "In the Western Regions, Poor Ni has never seen such a powerful person. β
Xiao Man'er's pair of sheared pupils, looking at Lin Feng, was also full of amazement and smile.
And Mrs. Jingci couldn't help but fold her hands: "Bodhisattva bless, finally let us see hope." β
Thanks to the Bodhisattva? Shouldn't we thank me for the victory of heaven...... Lin Feng raised his head and shouted, "Two masters, please take a closer look at the tiles on the roof, are there any traces of being re-paved?" Whether there is a significant color difference. β
Hearing Lin Feng's words, everyone quickly quieted down and listened nervously.
Soon, a monk's voice came: "Really, there are a few tiles with obvious color differences, it should be that there is no perfect restoration after being taken down, leaving such traces." β
Lin Feng thanked the monk with a smile, then looked at Jing Ci and said, "Master, it seems that it can be determined that the murderer opened the tiles through the roof and entered the Buddha hall unconsciously. β
Jing Ci nodded heavily, and she said: "Lin Sizheng's ability to solve cases has amazed the poor nun, and this key problem has finally been solved!" β
Lin Feng smiled and bowed his head.
He looked back at the tablecloth, at the obvious footprints on it, and something suddenly occurred to him.
I saw him quickly walk under the deceased, then squatted down, lifted the deceased's shoes, and looked at the soles of the deceased's shoes.
In the next moment, Lin Feng's brows suddenly furrowed.
"How can this be ......"
He thought about it, quickly got up, and said to Jingci: "Master, I don't know where Huiyun lives?" Can I go check it out? β
When Jing Ci heard this, he immediately said: "The poor nun is heading to Lin Temple. β
With that, she took Lin Feng and left the Buddha Hall directly.
The two of them bypassed several other smaller Buddha halls and came to a row of houses in the backyard.
Then Jing Ci pointed to a room and said, "This room is where Senior Sister Huiyun lives. β
When Lin Feng heard this, he walked quickly to the front of the room.
At this time, the door was closed, but with a slight push from Lin Feng, the door was pushed open.
And as the door opens, the things in the room come into view.
It was a standard pilgrim's room, with a simple dΓ©cor, with only a table, two cabinets, and a bed.
But at this time, the room with simple decoration seems to have been burglarized.
The cabinet was opened, and some monks' robes were thrown haphazardly on the cabinet.
The bed was flipped and the quilt fell to the floor.
Looking at this scene, Jingci was stunned, and she was puzzled: "How can this be?" β
Lin Feng walked into the room, carefully looked at the chaotic room, then took a deep breath, looked at Jing Ci, and said, "Master Jing Ci, next this official has to say a guess, I hope you can bear it." β
"What?"
Jing Ci was stunned for a moment, and she hurriedly looked at Lin Feng nervously.
Then she listened to Lin Feng say in a deep voice: "No accident, the person who stole the Jinyun robe was none other than the one who was killed...... Master Huiyun! β
