Lu Xiaoru listened to Zhuge Zheng's tone, and even felt that Ling Shuang's case was strange. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info he hurriedly said: "But at that time, the door was locked, and Ling Shuang was the only one in the house, not killed him, who else could kill someone and then lock the door? Besides, Ling Shuang didn't sleep in his own room, why did he run to his father's room?"

Zhuge Zheng frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Yes...... It's really strange......" He looked up and asked Su Zhuo, "Su Zhuo, what do you think is going on?"

Su Zhuo said: "I just arrived in Jinling, and I went to prison to inquire about Lingshuang's case. As written in the case file, Ling Shuang was alone in her father's room, and the door was locked. However, there is something strange in this matter. Come with me, everybody!", he said, leading everyone out of the hall and into the hallway.

It was not surprising that the crowd stood at this end of the hallway, looking across the street. Su Zhuo said: "This house was rented by Ling Feng when Master Ling came to Jinling, and Ling Shuang has never been here. On the night of the crime, there was a banquet here, among which were Shen Donglai and Lu Kang. At the banquet, Master Ling drank a few glasses of wine, and then felt a little unwell, and was helped back to the room by the eldest prince to rest, and Mrs. Shen and Ling Shuang entertained the guests. ”

Ling Feng nodded and said, "There is indeed such a thing. ”

Su Zhuo nodded and said, "Ling Shuang also drank two more glasses, and she was a little drunk. Master Ling asked Ling Feng to leave him to sleep here, and Ling Feng told Ling Shuang about it, and told Ling Shuang that his room was the first on the left hand side of the corridor, right?"

Ling Feng and Ling Shuang nodded at the same time, Lu Xiaoru snorted coldly and said, "What's so strange about this, what do you want to say?"

Su Zhuo smiled slightly, and said, "What I want to say is that this is where the matter is!" Ling Feng was drunk and groggy at the time, and he only remembered one sentence, which was the first room on the left side of the corridor. He was about to go back to his room to sleep, but he was stopped by Mrs. Shen in the back garden at the fork in the corridor, and went to the back garden pavilion to say something. ”

Mrs. Shen said: "This is indeed the case. ”

Su Zhuo said again: "However, Ling Shuang left from the back garden and wanted to go back to the room, but he still only remembered the sentence on the left side of the corridor. This courtyard is located on the north and faces south, and the left and right sides are symmetrical. From the south side of the corridor, the left side is westward, while from the back garden, the left side is eastward. So Ling Shuang walked into the east, Master Ling's room!"

Zhuge Zheng and Lu Xiaoru and others watched back and forth twice, and sure enough, as Su Zhuo said, and the distance from the two ends of the corridor to the wing room is close, it is easy to make a mistake at night. Zhuge Zheng sighed and said, "So that's the case, Ling Shuang had no intention of going to the wrong room, and he actually caused such a lawsuit. What's the deal with the locked?"

Su Zhuo said: "This is a plan set up by the real murderer." As he spoke, he took everyone to Ling Zhishan's room. He continued: "In this room, I have re-set up the mechanism set up by the murderer, and everyone will take a closer look in the room. ”

Su Zhuo said, lighting the candle on the table. The crowd saw a strip of white cloth attached to the leg of the table, and the other end tied to the deadbolt at the back of the door. Su Zhuo closed the door and placed the candle next to the strip of cloth. After a while, the candle burned to the strip of cloth. I saw that after the cloth strip was heated, it immediately ignited and quickly turned into a cloud of black ash. And the deadbolt was pulled by the cloth strip, and it fell down with a "click", just locking the door.

Everyone suddenly realized, and there was a lot of discussion, saying: "So that's the case, it's really unbelievable!"

Su Zhuo said: "I asked Yang Dazhi, who was cleaning the room, and on the second day, he did sweep up a lot of such black ash on the ground, which was caused by the burning of this cloth strip. And the candle on the table was also burned out, and it was replaced with a new one the next day. All of this can prove the reason for the formation of this secret room. ”

Lu Xiaoru still wanted to find some doubts to refute, and said: "Even if what you say is true, this does not prove that the murderer is not Ling Shuang." Maybe he designed these things, otherwise he walked into this room by mistake, how could he not see Ling Zhishan?"

Su Zhuo smiled and said, "Actually, when Ling Shuang returned to this room, Master Ling was in the room, but it was not his person, but the corpse! At that time, he was tied by the murderer with such a strip of cloth, bypassed the beam, and hung in the air, so that Ling Shuang did not see the body. Then the murderer took advantage of Lingshuang's sleep, lit a candle, and closed the door. When the candle burns to the strip of cloth, the scene we just saw will be released, the door of the house is bolted, and the corpse falls to the ground!"

Zhuge Zheng has been judging the case for many years, and he can't help but gasp at this time. It's appalling. Lu Xiaoru was a little anxious and said, "This is all your speculation, there is no evidence at all!"

Su Zhuo smiled: "Who said I have no evidence? First, the beams of the house were originally covered with dust, but at this moment there are a few clean marks, which are the strips of cloth hanging on them and wiping them clean." Second, there was a trace of smoke on the deadbolt, indicating that the cloth was burning. Third, I opened the coffin for an autopsy last night and found that Master Ling had broken ribs in his chest and abdomen, which could not have been caused by a fight with the murderer, because I didn't hear any movement. This fracture was broken when the body fell from mid-air!"

Su Zhuo's words completely made Lu Xiaoru speechless, and he was powerless to refute. Zhuge Zheng nodded and said, "Although you opened someone's coffin privately, you also found out the truth of the matter, and it can be regarded as a merit and a demerit." But you don't have any physical evidence yet, and where did the strips of cloth come from? ”

Su Zhuo smiled: "This is the first evidence I want to show you!" said and took out the tattered clothes from his arms, and said, "These strips of cloth are torn from this clothes." The fabric of this dress is not ordinary, not only tough, but also light and cool, it is the precious fabric of Lingjia Silk Village, which is specially worn by dignitaries and nobles in summer. There is only one point, this cloth will immediately burn when it encounters fire, turn into black ashes, and disappear without a trace. ”

Zhuge Zheng hurriedly asked, "Where did you find this dress?"

Su Zhuo glanced at Ling Yu and said, "This is what I found in Ling Yu's room the night before. ”

Everyone looked at Ling Yu, Ling Yu was stunned, and said angrily: "Nonsense, I don't have this dress at all!"

Zhuge Zheng said suddenly: "I understand! If this dress was really found in Ling Yu's room, then the murderers should be Mrs. Shen and Ling Yu! Then Mrs. Shen deliberately stopped Ling Shuang, not only designed to make him go to the wrong room, but also left time for Ling Yu to set up a mechanism for killing!"

Su Zhuo nodded and said, "My lord's inference is not bad at all, I thought so at first." Especially when I saw that Mrs. Shen and Shen Donglai were trying their best to seize the family property that should have been inherited by Ling Feng, I believed that they designed this matter. However, there is a big flaw in this!"

Zhuge Zheng asked, "What flaw?"

Su Zhuo handed him the dress and asked rhetorically, "What's so strange about this dress, my lord?"

Zhuge Zheng looked at it for a moment and shook his head blankly. Su Zhuo explained: "If the murderer is looking for a piece of fabric, then there is no need to make clothes. Since it is made into clothes, it must be to wear it on the body, which is just right to come in handy when killing. But this dress is so clean! It is a hot summer day, if this dress is worn on the body, how can there be no sweat stains and sweat smell? But the clothes are so clean, it is naturally impossible for the murderer to wash the rotten clothes the next day. Therefore, this dress was not worn by Ling Yu at all, but someone deliberately designed it to blame him!"

Zhuge Zheng was taken aback and said, "This murderer is really trying his best! So who is the real murderer?"

Su Zhuo stretched out his hand and pointed at a person, and said, "The murderer is you, Ling Fengling eldest prince!"
