Chapter 15: Flaws
Jiang Kui snorted, pointed at Lin Dong and Yang Shuhua, and said, "Do you need to say more? It's clear that these two guys are eating inside and out, colluding with bandits and wanting to snatch the treasure chest!"
Lin Dong gritted his teeth, laughed angrily, and said: "Hmph, it's really the wicked who sued first, obviously you want to monopolize this credit, and you didn't hesitate to get rid of us all, so as to cover up the sins you committed!"
Ma Zhen was puzzled: "Young Master Su, I heard them arguing, and I think both sides have a point, but what is going on?
Su Zhuo said: "Since Master Ma asked, I will explain it to you." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info To put it bluntly, it's actually very simple, this infighting is precisely promoted by this murderer. Presumably Master Ma also understood that Jiang Zongbing and his party of nine people, although they were comrades, they were not united, although they were not scattered, it could also be said that they had ghosts. According to my guess, Qian Bao, Tang Renjie and this Wang Shangui should be the most intimate with General Jiang, and they can be said to be confidants. And this Lin Dong must be the least liked by General Jiang Bing, because he has an active brain and has no reverence for General Jiang. And Yang Shuhua is similar, he is upright, and even a little stubborn. The murderer took advantage of this to create this infighting!"
Jiang Kui thought about it carefully, and if this was the case, he said angrily: "You mean it's his ......?"
Su Zhuo interrupted him and said: "You don't have to worry, I have already found out everything about it! Okay, let's get down to business, in fact, those who doubt Jiang Kui, you might as well take a look at Li Jin, being so crazy and crazy will not be beneficial to you all this way." But General Jiang still took him on the same road, presumably to give him some wealth and honor, so as to fulfill the friendship of his comrades, right?"
Jiang Kui snorted, "That's right, I didn't even leave Li Jin, how could I kill the others?" he looked at Lin Dong and Yang Shuhua angrily.
Su said clumsily: "That's right, General Jiang, maybe you don't know." In fact, Lin Dong has been suspicious of you since the morning after the murder. He, along with me and Brother Wu, pondered the mystery of murder in the secret room. At that time, Brother Wu and Lin Dong had a bold assumption. Lin Dong, do you remember?"
Lin Dong gasped and said, "How could I forget, it's because of this that I suspect him!"
Su Zhuo took over the conversation and said: "This hypothesis must be known to everyone, that is, that room is actually not locked at all! Yesterday morning, it was General Jiang who was the first to break open the door, so the words that this door was locked are all General Jiang's words!"
Jiang Kui said angrily: "Fart! That door is obviously locked......"
Su Zhuo interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and said, "This hypothesis seems to be very possible, and it has made me doubt, but it was quickly overturned by me. First of all, the latch of the door did show signs of breaking, and it was not much different from the angle at which the door was pushed open. If the murderer fakes, it is too similar. Secondly, Lin Dong, have you forgotten? The night before, when you were standing guard, Hu Guang did tap the door, but he couldn't enter the house, which means that the door was indeed locked. ”
Lin Dong couldn't refute it, and opened his mouth to say, "But ......"
Su Zhuo ignored him and continued: "Of course, Hu Guang's slapping of the door may also be just a scene, the purpose is to cover up the fact that the door is not locked. Hu Guang had been instructed by General Jiang in advance, so he conspired to take the credit. But he had done his job, and was immediately silenced! But this assumption was too far-fetched and flawed. Regardless of what else you are, isn't General Jiang afraid that Lin Dong will really push the door? Besides, Lin Dong, you are standing guard at night and falling asleep, why didn't the murderer kill you?"
Everyone in the lobby listened to this explanation and nodded again and again. Su Zhuo said again: "Of course, General Jiang sent people to ask for help yesterday, and Tang Renjie asked for his life, which is also a point that makes Lin Dong and them suspicious. They all knew that Tang Renjie was Jiang Zongbing's henchman, and at this time, Tang Renjie took the initiative to ask for his life despite the danger of a big thief from Xiangxi outside. And the thief appeared that night, and he did a good job. This is naturally easy to associate with this so-called thief is Tang Renjie. ”
Jiang Kui only felt ridiculous, and scolded repeatedly: "Fart, fart, ......"
Su Zhuo smiled and said: "That's right! This is indeed untenable, because if this thief is Tang Renjie, why did he kill Qian Leopard? Isn't Qian Leopard also Jiang Zongbing's henchman? And Qian Leopard didn't even make a move, so he died." Is the Tang Dynasty's martial arts function so high?"
Lin Dong Yangshuhua listened to this explanation and had nothing to say. Yang Shuhua complained: "Lin Dong, you really hurt me......!"
Jiang Kui said angrily: "Lin Dong, what else do you have to say? It is clear that you killed Zhao Chengde and Hu Guang! Who can kill you more than you that night?"
Su Zhuo shook his hand and said: "General Jiang is also wrong, if Lin Dong is really a murderer, then how did he lock the door of that room? How did he kill Qian Leopard? Who is that Xiangxi thief?"
Jiang Kui nodded and said, "So, Lin Dong is not a murderer?"
Wu Chang said suddenly: "Brother Su, when you say that, you suspect that I am sowing discord? I did guess the case with them, but I didn't expect them to fight......
Ma Zhen said: "Okay, okay, this matter is over." Everyone here has speculated about who is the murderer, and it is inevitable that they will make mistakes, and who has not been suspected? Since Su Gongzi said that neither of them was the murderer, then who is the murderer? How did this secret room murder happen?
Su Zhuo said: "At first, I was also stumped by these puzzles, I doubted Lin Dong, Jiang Zongbing, and even Master Ma, Li Jin, who pretended to be crazy and stupid, and everyone in this inn. But these conjectures are untenable, and it wasn't until last night that the Xiangxi thief appeared to kill someone that I found the key to solving the puzzle!"
Everyone was confused when they heard this, and Ma Zhen said: "Master Su, don't sell Guanzi, what's going on?"
Su Zhuo said: "The key to this is Qian Leopard's death! Everyone thinks that he was killed by the Xiangxi thieves, but the real cause of death is a secret weapon!"
Everyone wondered: "Hidden weapon?"
Su Zhuo nodded and said, "That's right! I checked carefully last night, and Qian Leopard had no external injuries all over his body, only a small pinhole on the left side of his neck, which was really not easy to find if he didn't look closely." Qian Leopard was stabbed into the left side of his neck by a steel needle and died!"
Ma Zhen blurted out: "Steel needle, who is there in the rivers and lakes who is a master of making this kind of secret weapon?"
Su Zhuo shook his head and smiled, and said, "Master Ma doesn't have to think about it, because this secret weapon can't be sent by that thief at all." Because there was a pillar to the left of where Qian Leopard was standing when he died, if it was really the snitch, the steel needle would have pierced into the pillar. And that needle didn't stay in Qian Leopard's body, where is the reason why a murderer has pulled out the steel needle after killing someone? Isn't it strange to say?"
Ma Zhen nodded and said, "Then how did Qian Leopard die?"
Su Zhuo sighed and said: "I think, someone must have set up a bracket on the pillar in advance, Qian Leopard walked here, touched the mechanism, and the machine bracket shot out a steel needle, just enough to shoot into Qian Leopard's neck." I haven't been able to find any evidence, but that's the only way to explain it. ”
Jiang Kui was obviously not very satisfied, and said, "As you said, how did Zhao Chengde and Hu Guang die?"
Su Zhuo said: "Qian Leopard's death made me feel inspired, so I re-examined the bodies of Zhao Chengde and Hu Guang, and sure enough, the same pinhole was found on the shoulders of both of them!"
"Let's go back to the first night, Zhao Chengde went back to the room early, and Hu Guang specially told him not to lock the door at that time. It is conceivable that this brother is usually careless, and he is simply a lack of tendons in his head. But no matter how decent, he won't turn his head and forget Hu Guang's words. Zhao Chengde went upstairs and went back to the room alone, but he didn't close the door, so he went to bed. But soon after, the murderer entered the room!"
