Chapter 8 Clues
Lin Dong was stunned for a moment and said, "Master Su can call me Lin Dong." www.biquge.info He listened to Su Zhuo's analysis, and was greatly heartbroken, and said: "Is the prince talking about the shopkeeper? Look at his appearance, thin arms and legs, I'm afraid he is not a person who practices martial arts." ”
Su Zhuo said: "That's right, Shopkeeper Chen has no ability to kill Zhao Chengde and Hu Guang. ”
Brother Wu let out an "oh" and sighed: "Then it seems that this Xiangxi thief is not the shopkeeper Chen." Who could that be? This case is really puzzling. ”
Su Zhuo smiled: "Actually, the difficulty of this case lies in the doubts I mentioned. Lin Dong, do you remember?"
Lin Dong scratched his head and said, "What I remember most clearly is that this room was tied up from the inside, but how did the murderer get out?"
Wu Chang snorted and said, "The window is clearly open, and it must have jumped out of the window." ”
Lin Dong said: "Su Gongzi obviously said, first, this house has a high floor, it is impossible not to leave footprints on the ground, and there is a grass shed under this window, and there is nowhere to stay." ”
Wu Chang didn't expect Lin Dong to be shrewd and memorized Su Zhuo's words. He ran out of words for a while, and then said, "This ...... Maybe...... I climbed through the window to the next room. Wu Chang suddenly thought of the two rooms next door, one was where the Qian leopard lived, and the other was Su Zhuo's room. He hurriedly apologized to Su Zhuo: "Brother Su, I don't suspect you......"
Su Zhuo waved his hand and said, "Whether there is such a possibility or not, you can see at a glance." As he spoke, he walked to the window and said, "The climate here is humid, and the outer walls of this wooden building are covered with moss, and there are no traces of trampling. This shows that the murderer neither entered through the window nor left from here. ”
Wu Chang touched the short beard on his lips and muttered: "If this is the case, can this thief really go to heaven and earth?"
Su Zhuo smiled: "If you can solve this mystery, everything will be solved." ”
Lin Dong was a little eager to try, and said, "Could it be like this?" The murderer had already hidden in the room in advance, and when Zhao Chengde fell asleep, he killed him. After the incident, because he was running into us back to the room, he did not dare to go out, so he simply tied the door to death and hid himself in the room. This morning, we pushed open the door and slipped out quietly. ”
Su Zhuo nodded, frowned, then stretched out again, and said with a smile: "Your assumption is also novel and bold, and it makes some sense." ”
Wu Chang sneered: "I think it's pure nonsense. He looked at Su Zhuo's expression, and suddenly understood that Su Zhuo must have figured out the problem, so he said: "Brother Su naturally knows the flaw in his words, in the morning more than a dozen of us entered the door together, how could someone sneak out and no one noticed?"
Lin Dong was unwilling and argued: "At that time...... At that time, everyone was fascinated by the tragic scene in the house, and it is possible that they did not notice it. ”
Wu Chang said: "Do you think everyone is like you? If you want to make this assumption true, unless you ......"
He pondered for a long time, and Lin Dong hurriedly asked, "Unless what?"
Wu Chang said: "Unless, this person is mixed in with us, and everyone rushes in, not noticing that the murderer has blended into the crowd." ”
Lin Dong suddenly said: "Yes, yes, you mean that this murderer is among us at all!"
Su Zhuo listened to the analysis of the two of them, and couldn't help but be a little funny. He didn't interject, and turned to look at the deadbolt, which was broken. Wu Chang suddenly felt a little frustrated, and said, "I really think that my head is big." In fact, this kind of secret room murder is mysterious, I think it's a waste of time. ”
Lin Dong was puzzled: "How do you say this?"
Wu Chang hesitated for a while, lowered his voice and said, "Who was the first to enter the door this morning?"
Lin Dong said: "Yes...... It's Jiang Tou'er, what's wrong?"
Wu Chang said: "According to the ah, General Jiang was the first to push open the door, whether the door was open or tethered, naturally it was all up to him......"
Lin Dong was taken aback and whispered, "You...... You mean...... Jiang Touer...... Won't it......"
Su Zhuo obviously also heard what Wu Chang said, and fell into deep thought. Lin Dong whispered to himself: "If it's really as you said, what is Jiang Tou'er going to tell this lie for?"
Su Zhuo heard that he really doubted his superior, and said in surprise: "What, you really dare to doubt Jiang Kui?"
Lin Dong said: "No...... No, no, I don't really doubt him...... It's just that ......" he wanted to say and stopped, but he didn't say much after all.
Su Zhuo said casually: "I didn't expect you to go so far together without working together." ”
Lin Dong hurriedly said: "Young Master Su, don't talk nonsense, if you let Jiang Tou'er hear it......"
Wu Chang said: "Don't worry, we are not fools." Besides, looking at his fierce appearance, who wants to say more to him. ”
Lin Dong relieved his heart slightly, but he was still worried. Su Zhuo guessed his mind and understood that he suspected Jiang Kui, so he was naturally uneasy. In fact, it was not only him, but Su Zhuo's heart was also difficult to calm down. Wu Chang said that it is reasonable, whether this door is tied to the bottom or not, only Jiang Kui knows. But if Jiang Kui was making trouble, what did he mean by doing this? Why did he kill his subordinates? Did he have the opportunity to commit the crime? How did Hu Guang get killed? Su Zhuo's mind was full of mysteries one after another, and he had no clue at all.
Lin Dong looked at the two corpses lying on the ground, sighed, and said, "Brother Zhao, Brother Zhao, why did you say you were killed? A few days ago, we joked that if you want to die in the future, you will either die by walking and falling, or you will choke to death by drinking water." Why were you killed like that?"
Su Zhuo listened to him and suddenly asked, "Why are you making such a joke with Zhao Chengde?"
Lin Dong shook his eyes and said, "What's the ...... What's wrong? We are soldiers, and we don't shy away from these ......."
Su Zhuo said: "I'm asking you, why do you say that Zhao Chengde will fall to his death while walking?"
Lin Dong sighed and said, "Brother Zhao's biggest problem is that he is very arrogant and careless, and he will choke himself to death if he really drinks saliva." ”
Su Zhuo groaned: "Yes, yes, that's why Hu Guang told him not to close the door last night." ”
Lin Dong said: "That's right, if it weren't for everyone reminding me from time to time, Brother Zhao wouldn't know how many foolish things he would have to do." ”
Su Zhuo asked again: "What's wrong with Hu Guang?"
Lin Dong said: "What is he...... , right...... If that were to count. ”
Su Zhuo nodded and said to himself, "Not bad, not bad." ”
Wu Chang asked, "Brother Su, what do you think of?"
Su Zhuo shook his head and said, "It's nothing......" He walked around the room again, convinced that there was nothing special about it, and there was nothing wrong with the two corpses. Su Zhuo walked out of the door in a dejected manner, turned around and asked, "Lin Dong, what kind of treasure did you transport?
Lin Dong said: "Master Su, I can't tell you anything about this luck." There was no hassle along the way. First, we are all officials, and secondly, Master Ma has been walking **** for many years, and generally bandits will not come to find trouble. ”
Su Zhuo shook his head and said, "In this way, this murderer is too short-sighted." ”
Lin Dong snorted coldly and said, "This Xiangxi thief is not small, he is dead!"
Wu Chang shuddered and said, "As long as you don't implicate us, it's fine." ”
Su Zhuo didn't say a word, walked back to his room by himself, closed the door, sat upright and pondered, only to feel that there were many thoughts in his head, but he couldn't grasp the most critical one.
