Su Zhuo listened to Duan Lihua's analysis, nodded and said, "What you said is very reasonable, go on!"

Duan Lihua received the encouragement of her master, and she was even more energetic, and said, "The wax oil on this table, I'm afraid it will take the entire candle to drip so much." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info And I just heard you say, on the day of the accident, it was probably found at midnight. There have been people in this room since then, and if this candle burned out here, it would not have been possible for no one to find out. ”

Su Zhuo suddenly said: "I was eavesdropping at this window that night, and I can be sure that there were no candles on this table at that time!"

Duan Lihua was stunned for a moment, and said blankly: "No? How can there be no candles?

Su Zhuo chuckled lightly and said, "There is only one possibility, the candle here was lit here by the murderer." After the murderer killed, he took the candle away!"

Duan Lihua said: "That's even more impossible. According to the speculation just now, the murderer committed the crime for only one hour at most. If this candle had only burned for an hour, it would never have left so much candle oil on the table!"

Su Zhuo said: "Maybe this is a special big candle with a lot of oil and fast burning, and of course it is brighter." Of course, there are a lot of these candles dripping on the table!"

Duan Lihua was surprised: "Is there such a candle?"

Fang Baishi said: "Of course there is! Like in the palace of the Imperial Palace, in order to illuminate such a large room, such a big candle is lit. And most of the time, these candles are made of the grease of deep-sea whales, which not only burn for a long time, but also very bright!"

Duan Lihua said: "However, this is not a palace, why do you want such a big candle?"

Su Zhuo suddenly smiled and said, "If you solve such a problem, maybe you won't be far from catching the real murderer!"

Duan Lihua was still at a loss: "Really, why do I feel confused?"

Su Zhuo smiled, didn't say anything, turned to Sun Qingliu and said, "That night, were you alone in this courtyard?"

Sun Qingliu said: "Yes." After a day of studying, everyone was a little tired, and basically rested in their own rooms. I'm in charge of making tea for the doorman, tidying up his study, and going to bed late. ”

Su Zhuo asked again: "You said that day, you heard the master of the Zeng Sect talking to himself, what did you say about the sound of candle shadow axe?"

He mentioned the sound of the candle shadow axe again, but Fang Baishi was taken aback. Although Fang Baishi didn't react that day, after a few days, he knew that the matter was not simple. After all, he is a big internal catcher, and he has heard about the rumors back then, and he has participated in the investigation of this rumor, and he knows that the water is very deep.

Therefore, when he heard Su Zhuo mention the sound of the candle shadow axe again, he felt that something was wrong. Fang Baishi said: "Su Zhuo, I don't think this matter has anything to do with the death of the Zeng Sect Master, right?"

Su Zhuo smiled: "Oh, how do you know it's okay?"

This matter involved royal secrets, and Fang Baishi didn't dare to go into too much detail, so he had to go on a rampage and couldn't say why.

Su Zhuo said: "Fang Zhutou, if you want to find out who the real murderer is, this question can't be bypassed!" He asked Sun Qingliu again: "Did you really hear the master of the Zeng Sect say these words?"

Sun Qingliu nodded and said, "It seems to be ......" He was not stupid, seeing the solemn expressions on Fang Baishi and Su Zhuo's faces, he knew that this matter was by no means simple, and he didn't dare to say it too absolutely for a while.

Su Zhuo nodded, and asked again: "Do you remember, did you see this room very bright that day!"

Sun Qingliu nodded heavily and said, "That's right, that's right! In the past, the main door reads, but the desk is brighter. But it was very bright that night!"

Duan Lihua was puzzled, "Master, what the hell is going on? Why am I getting more and more confused?"

Su Zhuo smiled: "I feel a little confused!"

He turned his head to Bai Shi and said, "Fang Zhutou, I want to search a few rooms!"

Fang Baishi said: "Whose house do you want to search?"

Su Zhuo pointed at Situ Gao and said, "I'll search the houses of these six people!"

Dongfang smiled and said angrily: "Fart! Su Zhuo, don't give you a shame! Why did you search our house?"

Shangguan Jun also said: "Su Zhuo, you don't want to put this basin on our heads! You want to frame us as the murderers of Master, so that you can clear your suspicion!"

Su Zhuo sneered for a while, just staring at Situ Gao. Situ Gao's face was gloomy, listening to the complaints of several junior disciples in his ears, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while. He looked at Su Zhuo and saw the confidence and firmness on the other party's face.

Situ Gao finally gritted his teeth and said, "Su Zhuo, are you really sure?"

Although he only said half of this, Su Zhuo heard what he meant. Situ Gao was asking if the murderer was really among the six of them. Su Zhuo had some bottom in his heart, so he said: "I'm seventy percent sure!"

Situ Gao said loudly: "Okay! Then you can search my house first!"

Shangguan Jun, Dongfang Xiao and the others were stunned, and Dongfang smiled and said, "Second brother, why are you afraid of him?"

Situ Gao stopped him and said, "Don't worry. Don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. Since we agreed to let him investigate the case, we will be generous. In case the time comes, he says we didn't make it easy for him!"

Dongfang Xiaowu was a little unconvinced, and the old third emperor, who had always been taciturn, said: "Second brother is right, let's let him search, when the time comes, he can't find it, and when he gives the master his life, he will have nothing to say!"

After everyone finished discussing, Situ Gao led Su Zhuo and his party to his room. The rooms of the six of them were next to each other, and they had to walk some distance into the academy. When everyone came to Situ Gao's room, they saw that the room was not big, and they saw it all at a glance.

Situ Gao said: "There is nothing in the house, how is it?"

Su Cun stepped into the house and opened the wardrobe casually. There were only two changes of clothes in the cupboard, and nothing else. He walked over to the bedside again and opened a wooden box.

Situ Gao stood at the door and said, "I have never filled this box......

Before he finished speaking, Su Zhuo's face changed and said, "So, what are these?"

Situ Gao was stunned for a moment, walked over to take a look, and suddenly some of the second monk was confused. He wondered, "What is this?"

Fang Baishi and the others also walked into the house and gathered around the box. I saw a pile of miscellaneous items in the box, including bamboo sticks, cotton thread, and a few leather paper puppet paintings, and in the corner of the box, there was a half-burned candle. This candle is several inches thicker than the usual candles.

Duan Lihua exclaimed: "Candles, candles!"

Of course, Su Zhuo had already seen the candles, but he picked up the few leather paper dolls and sneered: "Situ Gao, it seems that you have a lot of skills!"

Situ Gao said blankly: "What did you say?"

Seeing Su Zhuo's expression, Fang Baishi knew that he had already made a discovery, and asked, "Su Zhuo, what did you find?"

Su Zhuo said loudly: "I already know! The real culprit who poisoned the master of the Zeng Sect is Situ Gao!" (To be continued.) )
