Chapter 40 The Truth (II)
After speaking, Xue Tianhan looked at Chen Yutian,
Perhaps sensing the presence of his gaze, Chen Yutian's gaze suddenly turned to this place, and he smiled slightly.
Xue Tianhan also smiled in return.
The two people who look at each other show a tacit understanding that is difficult for others to achieve.
Ling Miaoyin looked at them, a hint of strangeness flashed in her eyes, such a tacit understanding, it is rare in the world, these two people, it is really ...... Envy of others!
Chen Yutian withdrew his gaze from Xue Tianhan and put it on the body of Xing Enming beside him.
At this moment, he has calmed down from the shock of learning the identity of the murderer for the first time, but there is still residual surprise in his eyes.
"Is it really him?" he said as if he was asking Chen Yutian and as if he were talking to himself.
Chen Yutian nodded slightly.
Xing Enming also nodded slightly.
"Indeed, if Yue Lingxiao had died more than ten days before the third case, then Wu Chengtian, who had met him at the last time, was indeed the biggest suspect. This is just the opposite application of our judgment that Yue Lingxiao was the murderer at that time, the only difference is that you have actual evidence, and we don't. ”
Speaking of this, Xing Enming couldn't help but sigh.
Chen Yutian nodded slightly.
Indeed, if it was Xing Enming who got the head of Yue Lingxiao today, maybe this discovery would be what they discovered.
But unfortunately, there are no ifs in this world.
And Chen Yutian was also a little puzzled, the person who sent the head to them was Wu Chengtian or not, if it was Wu Chengtian, then this step would be too bad......
Judging from the layout of several previous cases, he should not have made such a mistake!
But if he wanted to use Yue Lingxiao's head to imply that Yue Lingxiao, the real murderer, was dead, so that the case would become a complete unsolved case because of the murderer's death...... It's not impossible!
So what is the truth?
"You can go on. After calming down for a while, Xing Enming sat down in his seat again and handed the stage back to Chen Yutian.
Chen Yutian nodded, looked around him, and said, "It seems that everyone hasn't figured out the identity of the real murderer yet...... In that case, then please think about it, we always thought that the murderer was Yue Lingxiao, what is it?"
Of course, he had quarreled with Wu Chengtian, and the last person Wu Chengtian had seen before he died, and he walked out of Wu Chengtian's study in a hurry. Tang Fengling replied.
Chen Yutian nodded slightly, "Yes, what you said is very detailed, so let's think about it the other way around now." ”
"Think about it the other way around?" everyone looked at each other.
"Don't forget, the final result of this matter is that Yue Lingxiao killed Wu Chengtian, and thinking about it the other way around, it means that everyone wants everyone to think in the opposite direction of this matter, such as ...... If Wu Chengtian hadn't been killed by Yue Lingxiao, then how would things have developed?"
Gongsun's words fell, everyone looked at each other, and the essence flashed!
If Wu Chengtian hadn't been killed by Yue Lingxiao...... The first problem is the identity of the deceased, at the time of the crime, only a headless corpse was found at the scene, if this corpse did not belong to Wu Chengtian, then who did it belong to?
So who would the corpse be? After all, there was no third person at the scene.
"Could it be ......" Ling Miaoyin seemed to have thought of something, her beautiful eyes flashed slightly, and she hurriedly looked back at the snow and cold beside her.
Xue Tianhan was looking at her with a smile.
Seeing his expression like this, Ling Miaoyin suddenly felt extremely strange, and asked, "Do you know what I thought of?"
Xue Tianhan nodded slightly.
Ling Miaoyin's face suddenly showed a look of disbelief, but after seeing the corners of Xue Tianhan's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, she asked again, "Really?"
Xue Tianhan still nodded.
"So what do you think I just thought?"
"Disguise. Xue Tianhan curled the corners of his mouth and gently spit out two words.
Ling Miaoyin was taken aback!
Although she didn't know how he guessed it, what she had in mind was indeed these two words.
Because since Gongsun gave the premise of thinking that Wu Chengtian was not dead, then the corpse in the house naturally could not be Wu Chengtian, and from the beginning, Chen Yutian also denied this.
Then since the corpse is not Wu Chengtian, it can only be Yue Lingxiao's.
After all, there were only the two of them at the scene at that time, and the time of Yue Lingxiao's death deduced from Gongsun was about this time.
Finally, there is the head of the headless corpse that was taken away.
Because the skull is the easiest thing to identify the deceased, once the head is removed, it is much more difficult to identify the deceased.
Although it can also be judged according to the clothes of the deceased and the characteristics on his body, the clothes can be changed at any time, and the characteristics on the body, in this case, almost every Nine Snakes will have the capital, so they have also lost the ability to prove their identity!
If the purpose of taking the head was to mislead the investigators and Mrs. Wu to misjudge the identity of the headless corpse, then everything makes sense.
If the deceased was really Yue Lingxiao, then Wu Chengtian took away the head that could directly prove his identity after killing him, and then dressed him in the clothes he was wearing that day, and let the headless corpse pretend to be the headless corpse he was killed, and then left the scene as if nothing happened.
But in this case, there is undoubtedly something that cannot be explained.
That is, the servants of the martial arts manor had seen Yue Lingxiao leave Wu Chengtian's study in a rage, if it was Yue Lingxiao who died at that time, then who was the person who left the room?
After thinking about it, Ling Miaoyin only thought of one explanation, and that was to change the appearance!
Perhaps, the Yue Lingxiao seen by the Martial Arts Manor was not the real Yue Lingxiao, but the Yue Lingxiao who was disguised by Wu Chengtian.
Only in this way can the whole thing be explained.
"You're right, I think so, as for him...... I guess it's pretty much the same. ”
Xue Tianhan's faint voice sounded again, and his eyes looked at Chen Yutian.
Ling Miaoyin also looked over.
Seeing Chen Yutian smiled slightly, he said to everyone: "It's actually very simple...... If you think about it the other way, the person who died should be Yue Lingxiao's, and in fact, according to the time of death provided by Gongsun, he did die during this time period. That is to say......"
"Did Wu Chengtian kill him?" Huo Yuanji said suddenly.
Chen Yutian nodded and said: "This is a hypothesis, but there is a problem, that is, the servant of the Martial Family Manor once saw Yue Lingxiao leave Wu Chengtian's study in a rage, if it was Wu Chengtian who killed him, then who was the person the servant saw?"
"This ......" Huo Yuanji frowned slightly.
Chen Yutian smiled: "The answer is very simple, that person is Wu Chengtian!"
"What?" Everyone was taken aback at the same time, and immediately, Liu Huangcui and Ling Xiaowu reacted at the same time, and said in unison: "What do you mean...... Transfiguration?"
"Not bad!" Chen Yutian nodded.
"It's possible, but everything we're talking about now is just conjecture as before, and there's no actual evidence to prove it. Bai Fan touched his chin and said.
"Nope. Chen Yutian shook his head, "We have proof." ”
"Oh?" Bai Fan and the eyes of everyone behind him all focused on Chen Yutian's body in an instant.
Chen Yutian looked at everyone and smiled, pointed to the head of Yue Lingxiao, and said, "This is our biggest evidence! At least from this head, we can know that the real Yue Lingxiao died ten days ago or even earlier, so it can be proved that the series of headless cases since we returned to the capital were not done by him,"
The crowd nodded.
"But this can only prove that the murderer is someone else, and it can't definitely prove that Wu Chengtian is the murderer!" Bai Fan shook his head slightly.
Chen Yutian nodded.
Indeed, from the point of view of the law, such evidence does seem insufficient, so we can go on...... The second deceased in this case was Meng Xingyun, who came to the capital with Yue Lingxiao, who was brutally killed almost at the same time that the headless corpse in the martial arts manor was found, and according to Gongsun's latest autopsy results, it was proved that this person, like everyone after him, died from the heart-destroying sword qi!"
Hearing this conclusion, everyone was surprised again!
Before that, they had never heard Gongsun say this.
But Chen Yutian ignored everyone's expressions and said, "There is a problem here first, the body was found next to the official road far away from the martial arts manor, and the problem is that it was late at night at the time of the crime, and it was late at night, why did Meng Xingyun appear in that place?"
Hearing this question, everyone present frowned, with a deep expression on their faces.
Xing Enming seemed to have thought of something, and frowned slightly, "I remember that Li Yun once said that he and Yue Lingxiao lived in the store at the same time, which means that they should be companions, since they are companions, and they are both the snake heads of the Nine Snake Society in the past, and they also handed over the remnant map in their hands to that mysterious force, then the purpose of their coming to the capital should be the same, they are all for the remnant map in Wu Chengtian's hand!"
"That's a reasonable conjecture. Then let's continue to follow this conjecture, since Meng Xingyun's purpose is also the remnant map in Wu Chengtian's hand, then why didn't he go directly to the martial arts manor, but went to the side of the official road in the distance of the martial arts manor?"
Perhaps, he changed his mind...... Or perhaps, he didn't plan to get the remnant map directly from Wu Chengtian's hands. Wu Dongtian thought for a moment and said.
Chen Yutian nodded, "Then how is he going to get the remnant picture?"
"Robbery...... Or murder and treasure hunting...... These are all possible. "Wu Dongtian said again,
"Yes, these are indeed methods...... Let's think of it this way, if he wants to use force to take the remnants directly from Wu Chengtian's hands, then his best choice is to find a place that is easy to ambush, and that official road is obviously not a suitable location. Chen Yutian said again.
"Definitely. The crowd nodded slightly.
Looking at Wu Dongtian's frowning movements, Chen Yutian smiled slightly, "Actually, the answer is very simple, because it's not that he wants to go there, but someone wants him to go there." ”
Hearing this, Chen Gong nodded slightly.
Xing Enming and the others were taken aback, and then he asked tentatively, "What do you mean...... Where was he called?"
"Of course not. Chen Yutian shook his head.
Xing Enming was stunned for a moment, and then saw Liu Huangcui behind him speak softly, and said, "It was moved there after someone died, right? ”
Chen Yutian nodded slightly, "Not bad." Judging by the situation on the corpses......"
As he spoke, he picked up a corpse beside him and read, "There are many traces of friction on the corpse, and there are even traces of rubbing and scratching from rolling down the ramp...... No matter how you look at this, it should be a sign of moving the body after death, and I think his previous position should be a place where it is easy to observe the samurai manor, and it is precisely because of being in that place that he will die. ”
Hearing this, everyone present was shocked again!
"What do you mean......" Xing Enming's eyes flashed again and asked.
"Yes, I think it was there that he met the murderer who returned to the samurai manor to wait and see, and then he was killed by him. ”
"I see. Xing Enming nodded.
The others glanced at Chen Yutian with a slightly complicated gaze, because they had been surprised too many times today, and they were already numb.
"Actually, just now, Brother Bai, you asked me what evidence I have to prove that Wu Chengtian is the murderer, and I really don't have this, but I just asked Gongsun to help me do something, but it is enough to verify that the headless corpse is Yue Lingxiao's!" Chen Yutian suddenly looked at Bai Fan again.
Bai Fan was slightly stunned.
Chen Yutian said again: "The method is very simple, I asked Gongsun to extract a drop of blood from the corpse and skull and drip it into the water, and as a result, they ...... Completely blended together in the water. ”
Hearing this, everyone present suddenly changed color!
Even Chen Gong, who was originally calm, couldn't help but be taken aback at this time!
No one thought that Chen Yutian would use such a method to prove the ownership of the head!
This method is somewhat similar to the method of blood recognition that is often used in public courts, and the principle is that the blood of the same person or the blood of his descendants will be combined. When hearing similar cases of attribution of children, the government often uses this method to determine whether the child is the father's or not.
But no one has ever used this method in such a place.
However, it has to be said that this method is undoubtedly the most effective, after all, one's own blood cannot be mixed with the blood of others, and if it can be fused, it is not the offspring, but oneself. And in this situation, it is natural to throw away the possibility of future generations, then the only possibility is yourself.
After all, if the headless corpse was really Wu Chengtian, then those two drops of blood would never be able to fuse.
And now that there is a phenomenon of integration, it also shows that the headless corpse in the martial arts manor is really Yue Lingxiao!
So who the murderer is, naturally, it is very clear.
"The real murderer...... Sure enough, it's Wu Chengtian!" Everyone said involuntarily.
