Chapter 14 Extinguishing the Mouth?

"This ...... This ......" He looked at the eye of the needle in the neck of her husband's corpse and was speechless. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Chen Yutian walked into the room and took a closer look at the needle's eye. I saw that the eye of the needle was extremely small, and if you didn't look carefully, it was really difficult to find.

Gongsun carefully examined the body, and then said, "The deceased has no other external injuries on his body, and if it is not a suicide, then this needle eye is the only fatal injury." ”

"In other words, the deceased was poisoned and died, right?" Huo Yuanji and Xue Tianhan walked in one after another, and even Lin Dao and Lin Tao outside the door followed.

Lin Tao hid behind his father, looking at the corpse in the room with a little panic, this was the first time he had seen a dead person in the real sense, and he was naturally a little scared in his heart.

Gongsun nodded, and then frowned: "But it's very strange, why didn't I find this poisonous needle in the room or on the corpse?"

"It's not just that. Lin Dao's indifferent voice came, and everyone subconsciously looked over and saw him and Lin Tao standing on the only window in the room.

I saw Lin Dao pointing to the window and said, "There is no damage on this window, not even a small hole." ”

"What?"

After hearing this, Chen Yutian stepped to the window and carefully looked at the window paper, indeed as Lin Dao said, there was no damage on it.

"How is this ...... Maybe?" Chen Yutian was shocked, and his pupils constricted. Xue Tianhan and the others also changed their faces slightly, and there was no damage on the window, so where did the poisonous needle come in?

Under the premise that no one enters the room, the only way to poison and kill people with poisonous needles is to fly needles from outside the inn to kill people, but in this way, it will inevitably leave a small hole in the window punctured by flying needles.

But at the moment, there were no marks on the windows, and there was no damage.

Chen Yutian frowned.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he accidentally saw the door of the room that had been open, and suddenly he had an idea, strode to the door of the room, and carefully examined the two doors.

Suddenly, his gaze lingered on one of the doors and he smiled.

"That's ...... so"

When Xue Tianhan saw his expression, he immediately knew that he must have discovered something, so he asked, "Brother Chen, what did you find?"

Chen Yutian smiled and pointed to the small hole in the door.

Xue Tianhan took a closer look, was startled at first, and then suddenly said, "I see...... It turns out that the poison needle didn't come in from the window, but from outside this door!"

"What did you say?" Gongsun was taken aback when he heard this, and immediately hurriedly walked over with Huo Yuanji and looked at the small hole in the door.

Lin Dao's father and son also walked over with them and stood behind them.

Lin Dao looked at the door indifferently and coldly.

"Sure enough, it shot out of the door," Gongsun nodded, and then suddenly as if he realized something, he exclaimed, "Wait a minute, there is the passage of this inn outside the door, doesn't that mean ......"

As he spoke, his gaze involuntarily swept over the four people, including Lin Dao, He Shi, Xiao Er, and the fat guest.

Chen Yutian and Xue Tianhan also looked at the four of them with a smile.

The four people and Huo Yuanji were suddenly confused, looking at the movements of the three people, they didn't know what it meant.

Huo Yuanji asked, "What does it mean?"

Chen Yutian smiled slowly: "Outside the door of this room, there is the aisle of the inn, and from morning to now, except for us, no outsiders have come in, right, little second brother?"

Xiao Er nodded and said, "Yes, Childe." ”

Huo Yuanji was still a little puzzled: "But what does this mean?"

Chen Yutian said slowly: "Since no outsiders have come in, then, the murderer can only be the person who was originally in this inn, and since we came, no one in the inn should have left, so the murderer must still be in the inn!"

The four of them, as well as Huo Yuanji and Lin Tao, suddenly changed their complexions!

......

The catchers of Gyeonggi Province soon came to the Yuelai Inn.

The scene of He Wu's death was blocked, and Zhou Lin, the head catcher, was recording the confessions of all the people in the inn, and Chen Yutian looked at the catchers who were busy taking confessions, and was slightly distracted.

Xue Tianhan suddenly walked up to his side and asked, "Do you think this case will also be done by Liu Chong's killers?"

"Oh?" Chen Yutian smiled slightly, "What is the motive?

"Naturally. Xue Tianhan nodded and said, "He Wu and Li Qi are familiar with each other, and it is very likely that they have already known the truth about that incident from Li Qi's mouth, didn't you say that the killer sent by Liu Chong once said that he didn't want anyone who knew what happened back then to live in the world, since He Wu knew about that incident, it was very likely to cause Liu Chong's murderous intent and kill people!"

Chen Yutian thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "It's not unreasonable for you to analyze it like this. But I always felt that this case should not be that simple. ”

"Oh?" Xue Tianhan was surprised.

Chen Yutian looked at He Shi and Xiao Er, who were recording confessions, and said: "I always feel that these two people don't seem to be as simple as they seem. ”

Xue Tianhan was slightly stunned!

Chen Yutian smiled: "Maybe I'm thinking too much......"

At this time, Zhou Lin, the head catcher, walked over with the recorded confession, "Childe, the confessions of the suspects have been taken, please take a look." ”

Chen Yutian nodded slightly, took the confessions and looked at them.

There is almost no problem with Xiao Er's confession, and it is almost exactly the same as what was said before. The confession of the proprietress He is basically the same as that of Xiao Er. Lin Dao and his son had been sleeping in the room before the crime, and the fat guest was also sleeping. In addition, there was a woman who was in charge of cleaning the room, who was cleaning the kitchen downstairs at the time of the crime.

Chen Yutian frowned and asked, "What about the others, is there only these people in this inn?"

"Hui Gongzi, the other innkeepers are taking confessions downstairs, but they haven't been on the second floor since this morning, so they shouldn't be murderers. As for the tenants, there was no one else in the inn but the three. Zhou Lin said, pointing to Lin Tao's father and son and the fat guests on the side.

Chen Yutian looked at him in amazement: "It's just the three of them?"

"Yes," Zhou Lin nodded.

Chen Yutian's expression sank slightly, and he immediately nodded to Zhou Lin quietly and said, "I know, I'm sorry for you." ”

After Zhou Lin left, Xue Tianhan frowned and said, "What's going on? Could it be that Xiao Er is lying?"

He was talking about the suspicious person who had quarreled with He Wu that Xiao Er had mentioned, since there were only a few outsiders before the crime, then that person should also be an insider? But why is there no such person in the inn?

Chen Yutian frowned slightly and did not speak.

At this time, a catcher came over and said, "Childe, I have checked according to your instructions, and I have not found anything in the room that you said." ”

Chen Yutian nodded slightly, and then quickly left.

Xue Tianhan asked, "Sure enough, you still haven't found the murder weapon?"

Chen Yutian nodded.

The disappeared murder weapon, the mysterious guests who came and went without a trace, and the almost impossible murder method, this case is full of mysteries.

"Speaking of the murder weapon, I found a suspicious point. Xue Tian Han said, "Did the murderer really shoot the flying needle from outside the door?"

Chen Yutian frowned slightly, and said: "I don't understand this, if the murderer really shot a flying needle outside the door, with the distance between that room and the stairs, the possibility of the murderer being seen is very high, such a risky method, I don't think the murderer should use it." ”

Xue Tianhan nodded: "I think so too, but what's the matter with the little hole in the door?"

"Maybe the murderer deliberately left it to mislead the direction of the investigation. Chen Yutian thought for a while and said, "But in this way, what method did the murderer use to kill He Wu without entering the room?"

......

After the confession was taken, all the people in the inn gathered in the lobby on the first floor, and Chen Yutian, Zhou Lin and the others sat down at the square table and began to analyze the case.

On the side, a few running guys brought tea and prepared it for everyone to pour it.

Suddenly, I don't know if the guy was clumsy or absent-minded, a stream of tea was poured into the teacup, but all poured on Zhou Lin.

"Ah...... Poor master, the villain didn't mean it......" The guy hurriedly dropped the teapot and knelt down, with a look of horror on his face.

On the side, He Shi was also shocked, and while picking up the rag on the table to wipe Zhou Lin, he scolded: "I beat you, a thing that doesn't have long eyes, and you dare to offend the poor master, don't you know that the poor master can arrest you in prison at any time and eat prison food?"

"Ah......" The guy was startled and begged for mercy again and again, "The poor master spares his life, the poor master spares his life......"

"It's okay, you didn't mean to. Zhou Lin smiled indifferently and didn't take this matter to heart at all.

"You thing with no eyes...... He Shi scolds the guy with a gloomy face, "What are you still standing here for, don't you thank the poor master for his kindness?"

"Thank you for your kindness, your great kindness, the little one will never dare to forget......" The man bowed again and again, and then left under the scolding of the He family.

Chen Yutian looked at this scene and smiled slightly bitterly, this He family's prejudice against officials is really deep, and he only said a few words, but he directly satirized the phenomenon of officials holding power and indiscriminately taking people to prison, presumably he must have encountered similar things before.

Just thinking about it, Chen Yutian's gaze just swept over the object he was holding in his left hand, and his gaze suddenly flashed!

"Could it be ......" His eyes flashed, and he immediately got up and walked quickly upstairs, Xue Tianhan saw his expression, and immediately understood that he must know something, so he smiled slightly.

"It seems that this case will soon be solved......"
