Chapter 602: Who is the murderer
Therefore, Zhou Wen concluded that Tan Wenxuan's poisoning must have been today. And the three of them were the only ones who had entered the captain's room today. Except for himself, the murderer must be among Wang Yue and Zhao Zhi, and it may even be the two of them joining forces.
Besides, what magic circle can be calculated so well in advance, it happens to be today, it happens to be the time when Tan Wenxuan is resting, and it happens to be when all the guests are gone?
Zhao Zhi nodded and said, "You have a point. I've been thinking about the question, why did the murderer kill the captain?"
There must be a reason for killing, generally speaking, either for fame, profit, or love, and a few are perverts for pleasure.
Wang Yue hurriedly asked, "What do you think is the reason?"
Zhao Zhi stared at Wang Yue and said, "Captain Tan rarely gets off the boat, and he is very good at being a man, and he has no enemies in the sect. No one would be tempted to have a personal vendetta against him. ”
Zhou Wen said approvingly: "Not bad!"
Wang Yue groaned: "You mean that the murderer is a spy sent abroad?"
Zhao Zhi nodded and said, "I rarely get off the boat, among the three of us, you get off the boat the most often, and you have the most time to deal with outsiders." ”
The implication is that he thinks that Wang Yue was bought by people from other sects when he went out, so he plotted against the captain.
Wang Yue's color changed and she said: "Nonsense! When I go out, it's all to buy supplies, I don't go out alone, there are a lot of people with me!"
What he meant was that he didn't have the opportunity to contact people from other sects alone at all, and it was normal to go out to purchase.
Zhao Zhi sneered: "No, only you know!"
Wang Yue said angrily: "Don't bite people indiscriminately, Lao Zhou often comes out." ”
Yu Qingyao had a headache when she heard this, she couldn't figure out whether what these three people said was true or false, and she couldn't determine who was the real murderer.
Zhou Wen said impatiently: "Don't make any noise, you all seal yourself!"
His idea was very simple, anyway, the murderer was among these two people, so he simply arrested them all. As long as they are captured and imprisoned, the ship will be safe.
Wang Yue took three steps back guardedly and said, "You can't trust me, I can't trust you, don't expect me to be arrested." You've sealed yourselves. ”
Zhao Zhi had a gloomy face, stared at Zhou Wen, and said, "You won't be a thief shouting to catch a thief, right?"
When Wang Yue heard this, he immediately said: "Yes, the one who screams the most is most likely to be a thief!"
Zhou Wen was very angry, but he knew that at this time, he was going to make a strong move, but he was afraid that he would use one against two, and it would be a chaotic battle at that time.
It is unwise to fight in a chaotic manner without knowing friend or foe.
Although the strength of the other two is not as good as him, the difference is limited, and he does not have the ability to easily suppress the two.
He took a deep breath and sighed, "The murderer is among the three of us, you say, right?"
The other two nodded with ugly faces, and Wang Yue said unwillingly: "It is also possible that the murderer is hidden in the crew." ”
Zhou Wen said lightly: "The people on the boat, we all know the roots, they don't have that ability. ”
The people who can go to Xingcha are all old people in the sect, and even most of them are Taoists who were born and raised in the sect. If it weren't for his innocence and trustworthiness, how could he control such a powerful super magic weapon as Xingcha?
Wang Yue was still unwilling, and argued strongly: "Can't someone kill a crew member and then disguise himself as him and get on the boat?"
Zhou Wen said coldly: "Are you stupid to me and Captain Tan? Who got on the boat, we didn't see it with our own eyes?"
Wang Yue was speechless.
Zhao Zhi touched his nose and groaned: "This possibility cannot be completely ruled out, after arriving at the Demon Cultivation Garden, everyone is very relaxed." Maybe someone got on board at that time. ”
Zhou Wen sneered disdainfully, not bothering to refute.
The reason is very simple, this route is known to the Fushan Sect. It is impossible for people from other sects in Da Luotian to go to the Demon Cultivation Garden.
Zhao Zhi said: "Another possibility is that someone has bribed one of our crew members, maybe it is one of the captain's entourage. ”
Wang Yue clapped his hands and said, "Not bad!"
Zhou Wen did not immediately refute this statement, because it was really possible. If something goes wrong with the captain's entourage, it would be easier for that man to poison him than with the three of them.
He pondered for a moment and said, "I can't trust you, and you can't trust me." I propose that from now on, the three of us will always be together. What do you think?"
His idea was simple, staring at these two people, the murderer would no longer be able to commit murder, and the ship would be safe. In the meantime, he can send someone to continue to find out who the murderer is. I really can't find out, so I wait until I return to the sect, and then hand it over to the sect master to investigate.
Wang Yue thought for a while, nodded and said, "I don't care!"
Zhao Zhiyin grimaced and said, "It's okay!"
Yu Qingyao pouted secretly: Cut! After making trouble for a long time, I fought a mouthful of cannons, but nothing was solved.
From this moment on, the three of them stayed together, sitting together in a conference room, and no one was allowed to go out alone, and no matter what orders were given, the three of them had to agree together.
On the other side, Jia Ji and Li Huaide are also investigating and secretly visiting day and night.
Of course, Yu Qingyao stayed in her room, and let this person grow a white hair for a while, and let that person grow a white hair for a while, and she was also very busy.
Everyone on board knows that the captain is dead, and now the whole ship is being cordoned off to find the murderer. The people on board were uneasy.
A day later, there was no progress on the case. Whether it was Zhou Wen and the others, Jia Ji and Li Huaide, or Yu Qingyao, they did not get effective clues.
Le Zhihe's apprentice, Shi Chong, suddenly rushed into the conference room.
He shouted, "First mate, I have an emergency to report!"
Zhou Wen frowned and ordered the entourage who was blocking to get out of the way.
He asked, "What's the matter with you?"
Shi Chong said uneasily: "Deputy Zhou, Xingcha is advancing!"
Zhou Wen couldn't help but be surprised and said, "Impossible, I ordered the ship to stop yesterday." ”
Although he can drive, he does not dare to drive on his own like Tan Wenxuan without piloting. Therefore, he ordered the ship to stop, wanting to find the star map first.
Although Shi Chong is Le Zhihe's apprentice, he learns to pilot, but he has not yet graduated from the school and cannot take on the task of piloting.
Shi Chong said eagerly: "It's true, I just went to see it, although it looks dark outside, the law is constantly changing." The ship is really moving. ”
Zhou Wen's face changed greatly, and he suddenly stood up and rushed out.
Wang Yue asked uneasily, "Where are you going?"
Zhou Wen didn't look back, and said, "I'll go to the command room to have a look." ”
Wang Yueqi said: "What are you going to do there?"
Zhou Wen didn't have time to answer, and his figure flashed out like lightning.
Wang Yue hurriedly followed.
When he arrived at the command room, Zhou Wen took a closer look at the control array, and roared with a blue face: "Damn, who drove the boat?"
One of the crew members sitting next to him laughed.
Zhou Wen immediately turned his head to look, squinted and asked, "It's you?"
The crew laughed and said, "Yes, that's me!"
Zhou Wen asked coldly, "Why are you doing this?"
