Chen Yutian showed the blood-stained official silver found from the scene of the crime, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"It's ...... Official silver?" Bai Fan looked at the silver ingots in Chen Yutian's hand, and then looked at Chen Yutian.
I saw Chen Yutian nodded.
"Or was it found next to the corpse of Qian Youliang?"
Chen Yutian nodded again.
"That'...... Is this something that Qian Youliang himself has, or is it left by the murderer?" Bai Fan touched his chin.
The two, in terms of results, are very different.
If it is said that this official silver is the stuff of Qian Youliang himself, then the origin of this official silver is worth scrutinizing.
After all, it is forbidden to circulate official silver in the market, and if this logistics falls into the hands of ordinary people, it will inevitably cause a storm in the entire Celestial Empire!
On the other hand, if this object was deliberately left at the scene of the murder by the murderer, then did he want to use this object to convey some kind of message?
These are all areas that everyone needs to consider.
Bai Fan rubbed his eyebrows, this case is really full of mysteries, originally, the matter of how the deceased was poisoned has already given him a headache.
Unexpectedly, a blood-stained official silver appeared inexplicably, which made him even more headache.
"Anything else to discover?" Bai Fan asked.
Chen Yutian pointed to the fragments of the teacups in the room and said, "I also found the fragments of the teacups broken in the scene a little strange. ā
"Oh, what's so strange?"
"There are strange scratches on the floor under those shards, right?"
Gongsun nodded, "That's true, in addition, I also found a letter under the bed with a lot of money." With that, Gongsun took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Chen Yutian.
Chen Yutian opened the envelope, looked at the contents of the letter, then frowned, and handed the letter to Bai Fan.
Bai Fan took the letter, took a look, and saw two big block letters written on it: Hugh Shu!!
This is actually a letter of resignation written by a large amount of money to his wife!
Bai Fan looked at the contents of the letter carefully, and the letter stated the reason for Qian Youliang's divorce. is because he found out that his wife seems to have been cheating with someone since she came to Baishan County. Moreover, just yesterday, he also bumped into the scene of his wife cheating on that lover, so he wrote this letter of divorce, intending to divorce his wife!!
"It seems that, just like Brother Chen, you deduced, the relationship between their husband and wife is not only not good, but also to an extremely bad point, no wonder he pretended to cry when he saw his wife's body this morning. After reading the letter, Bai Fan sighed softly.
Chen Yutian also sighed, but after he read this letter of resignation, another sentence suddenly came to his mind.
"Women are unchaste and deserve the punishment of Ling Chi!!"
This is a sentence marked on the Ling Chi Heavenly Punishment Sculpture at the beginning, before, Chen Yutian always thought that this sentence was just to explain those Heavenly Punishment Sculptures, but now in retrospect, I'm afraid these words are the real murder prediction!!
Qian, as a wife, secretly cheated with other men, which just met the word "unchastity" in this sentence, so she was killed by the murderer!
And another woman who was tortured by Ling Chi, although she doesn't know what her identity experience is, presumably it should be because of the word "unchaste".
In this way, there is a lot of money in front of you......
Chen Yutian began to recall the words marked on the sculpture of the Heavenly Punishment of the Heart.
"A businessman who has a black heart and abandons his faith should be punished by digging out his heart!!"
Qian Youliang was indeed a businessman, and he was a wealthy businessman, otherwise he would not have been able to wear the latest style of boots.
It's just that it's unknown whether he is a black-hearted businessman or not.
However, this person should still know Mr. Lu, otherwise his wife would not be able to wear the jewelry made by Mr. Lu himself.
"Maybe you can check the details of the money from the old man's side. Chen Yutian touched his chin.
If this person is really a black-hearted businessman, then he is gouging out his heart, and he will fulfill the sentence on the sculpture of heavenly punishment......
Then the murderer's purpose of killing is worth scrutinizing......
"However, the top priority is to unravel how Qian Youliang was poisoned and the information behind the official silver. Only by understanding these two points can we perhaps know who the murderer is. ā
"It's just, how did you get that trace?"
Chen Yutian narrowed his eyes slightly.
He had always cared about the scratches on the floor, but he had never figured it out.
At this time, there was a new discovery on the scene.
A catcher named Sun Leopard found a strange trace above the window of the room.
Everyone immediately gathered to look, and under Sun Bao's guidance, they all saw that in the crack of the open window, there was a slight trace that looked like a thin line.
Seeing this trace, Chen Yutian was stunned for a moment as if he had been struck by lightning.
Instantly, his eyes sparkled, and he looked at the latch that was used to lock the window.
The latches of this inn are a little different from what you usually see, they are not separated from the windows, but are fixed to one side of the window like a movable rocker, making it easy to lock.
At this time, at the movable end of this group of window latches, there is a very clear trace of thin lines.
Seeing this trace, Chen Yutian finally smiled.
"I see, I finally understand how I got that trace......
"And how the murderer arranged such a secret room, I know it all......"
"The only thing that is lacking now is the ...... evidence"
Chen Yutian smiled, then glanced at Gongsun, and went downstairs.
He's going to find the relevant evidence!
Xuan Xi looked at the back of Chen Yutian leaving, and then looked at Gongsun, wondering in his heart, what kind of dumb riddle are these two people playing?
Chen Yutian came downstairs and found the first Xiao Er to find the body.
"Second brother, I remember you once said that you went up to refill tea at the request of a guest and found the body, right?" asked Chen Yutian.
Xiao Er nodded, "Yes, that's right." ā
"Did you go to the dead guest's room to refresh some tea?"
Xiao Er nodded again.
"So, when did he tell you that he was going to his room to get some tea?"
Xiao Er thought for a while, "It's probably just after noon, I remember that I was cleaning up downstairs at that time, and the dead guest suddenly came downstairs and asked me to add a pot of tea to his room." ā
"Are you sure that the guest who asked you to make tea is really the guest himself?" asked Tatsu Yutian.
"I guess they look the same after all...... It's just ......" Xiao Er's face suddenly changed when he said this, "but when it comes to tea, there is really something strange." ā
"Oh, what is it?"
"Oh, it's tea. We don't have a specialty of flower tea here, so we usually serve a pot of flower tea to the guests who come here, but on the day the guest and his wife came in, they told us that they didn't like flower tea and asked us to serve other teas. Xiao Er said, "However, when the guest returned to the inn at noon today, he seemed to be very thirsty, so he picked up the flower tea on the table and poured a cup. I wondered at the time, didn't he like to drink flower tea?"
When Chen Yutian heard this, his eyes flashed suddenly!
"Did you say that when he came back at noon, he wasn't in the room all morning?"
"yes. Xiao Er replied, "This morning, it is said that her wife did not return overnight, so she went to the county yamen to report to the official, and after returning from the county yamen, he stayed in the room for a while, and then left again, and did not come back until noon......
"And what did he look like when he came back?" asked Chen Yutian again.
Xiao Er thought for a while, "It doesn't seem to be any different from before leaving, but when he came back, he carried a big bag." ā
"Big bag?" Chen Yutian was surprised.
"yes, big black cloth bag. I also asked him what was inside, and he said it was from a business partner. I saw that the bag was too big, and I was afraid that he would not be able to hold it, so I wanted to help him carry it upstairs, but he suddenly became very excited and didn't let me touch the bag. "Xiao Erdao.
After hearing this, Chen Yutian touched his chin slightly, and then smiled at Xiao Er,
"I see, thank you so much. ā
"Childe is polite. Xiao Er waved his hand and said with a smile. Then I went back to work.
Chen Yutian said goodbye to Xiao Er, and the corners of his mouth slowly lifted a bright smile.
After Xiao Er's conversation, he finally understood.
He finally understood how the murderer carried out the so-called "heavenly punishment" on the amount of money......
