Chapter 14 Mo Yu’s Finger Pull

Xiaolan exclaimed and said with certainty: "It's him! This smell came from the butcher last night!"

Then he explained: "Last night, I just thought that the smell was left by the butcher during the day, and didn't pay attention to it. I didn't expect that he turned out to be the murderer!"

Ling Changfeng sniffed carefully, but still didn't smell any special smell, so he praised: "Xiaolan's nose is really sensitive, I still haven't smelled it. After we finish searching here, we will go find the butcher."

Question. I remember that the butcher’s name is Zhu Liu, right?”

Xiaolan was praised by her young master and thought that she had finally played a role in this case. She felt happy in her heart. She nodded and said, "Yes, he was the one who ran to the corpse to check. But if he had gone there later,

You won’t let him run away, right?”

Ling Changfeng replied: "If he wanted to run away, I'm afraid he would have run away long ago, not less than this moment. And if he hadn't run away, I'm afraid he would have been caught by Meng Ziyan." After thinking about it, he added: "This is really true.

The murderer behind the scenes is still hidden, Zhu Liu is nothing more than a murder tool."

Xiaolan nodded, thoughtfully. Since the young master had already made a decision, he said nothing.

Ling Changfeng walked to the shelves of books and began to look through them quickly, as if he was looking for something.

Xiaolan asked curiously: "Master, what are you looking for? Do you want me to help you?"

Ling Changfeng explained: "After Mr. Wang was killed, the fragrance of ink still remained in his hands. I suspected that he was reading a book at the time, but I didn't know which one it was. That's why I rummaged through this pile of books. If you don't mind it,

If so, you can come over and help me look for it together."

Hearing this, Xiaolan placed Xiaoyu gently on the desk and immediately went to look for the pile of books. She picked up a book and asked softly: "Master, how should I tell the difference?"

Ling Changfeng picked up another book and explained: "When a person is hit hard on the head and loses consciousness, his hands will clenched unconsciously. If the murderer wants to take the book away, he will definitely destroy the pages. Of course, if

In another situation, then..."

Seeing her young master pause, Xiaolan quickly asked: "What will happen?"

"That means Mr. Wang has already prepared for his own murder. When the murderer committed the murder, it was not a sneak attack." Seeing that Xiaolan still looked confused, Ling Changfeng put down the book in his hand and smiled.

"First: During today's autopsy, I smelled the fragrance of ink on the hands of the deceased, so I concluded that the deceased was writing or reading when he was killed. The scene of the first crime must be the study."

"Secondly, since the deceased was killed in the study, and the body was found in Fireworks Alley just outside the incense stick, it would take at least three people to carry an adult weighing a hundred kilograms silently. The murderer must be multiple people

Committing a crime."

"Third, during the autopsy, no traces of fighting or poisoning were found on the deceased, indicating that the murderer either struck the deceased when he was unprepared, so that the pages of the book would be destroyed as I just said. Or it was the deceased.

Before he died, he knew that the murderer was coming, put down the books in his hands, was subdued and killed."

Ling Changfeng took a deep breath and continued: "If it's the latter, I'm afraid Mr. Wang himself has some secrets. I'm afraid the case will become even more complicated and confusing." After that, he continued to look through the pages of the book.

After listening to this, Xiaolan seemed to have some enlightenment. She also immersed herself in looking for books. Xiaoyu saw that both of them were looking for books seriously, jumping up and down in the room out of boredom. Fortunately, there was nothing in the study that could be broken.

Things, otherwise I'm afraid they will be destroyed. When Xiaolan saw Xiaoyu playing by herself, the corner of her mouth curled up slightly, and she immediately started rummaging around.

After a long time, when the two of them looked up, it was already getting late. From the looks in their eyes, they knew that the last thing they expected had happened. Obviously, neither of them found the damaged book.

Ling Changfeng smiled and said: "It seems that the only clear clue now is the butcher Zhu Liu and the Western Region duo."

Seeing this, Xiaolan said, "Then shall we continue to search for clues in the palace? It's getting late, why don't we go home first."

Ling Changfeng shook his head and said: "Let's check other rooms, and then I will go to the county government to interrogate Zhu Liu. I didn't sleep well last night, and I have been running around for another day today. You should be tired, how about you first

go back."

Xiaolan immediately shook her head and refused, saying, "I'm not tired of following the young master."

Ling Changfeng smiled and stopped trying to dissuade him. So the two of them were about to get up and leave, but when they turned around, they found that Xiaoyu was missing from the room.

The two of them immediately shouted "meow" and "meow". Suddenly, they heard a weak response from the bottom of the bookshelf. Ling Changfeng immediately lay on the ground, and saw Xiaoyu holding a black thing in her claws, on the bookshelf.

Completely happy.

Ling Changfeng immediately pulled it out. At this moment, the snow-white Xiaoyu was black and white with dust. With the help of the weak sunlight, it was only then that Xiaoyu could see clearly that there was a black jade finger ring in Xiaoyu's paw.

After wiping the dust on it, a beautifully carved ring was revealed, with some vague characters inside, like some kind of ancient writing from the Western Regions. Ling Changfeng didn't know much about it either. However, judging from the material and workmanship, this thing must be of low value.

Fei. The bottom floor of this bookshelf is extremely small, and you can only put your hand in it. If Xiaoyu hadn't discovered it, I'm afraid this wrench would have been hidden for how long.

Ling Changfeng thought to himself: This finger appears in the house of the incorruptible Lord Wang and is also connected to the Western Regions. I am afraid it is an extremely important clue to this case.

Seeing Ling Changfeng's thoughtful expression, Xiaolan knew that this was an extremely important clue, and immediately said: "Oh, Xiaoyu, you are so awesome. We searched for a long time and found nothing, but you found the clue."

."

Ling Changfeng smiled and said: "Xiaoyu, thanks to you this time, I will give you a few more big fish when I go back."

When Xiaoyu saw that the thumb ring she had been playing with for a long time was taken away, she protested "meow meow", and then she slowly stopped when she heard that a small fish was done.

Now that they have found such an important clue, their trip to the palace is not in vain. They only need to ask the servants of the palace later to find out. After careful consideration, the two of them walked out of the study and went to other houses.

After some exploration, naturally nothing was found.

Ling Changfeng walked to the mourning hall and saw that the boy was still keeping watch. He took out the ring he had just found and asked softly: "Brother, have you ever seen an adult in your family wear this?"

The boy shook his head and replied: "To tell you what to say, my family is as poor as the common people. Since I came to the palace, I have never seen my family wearing such valuable things. If you count me in the future, I'm afraid

Ask Uncle Zhou, he is an old servant of the palace and has been with you the longest."

Ling Changfeng said: "Uncle Zhou has been taken to the county government now?"

Seeing the young man nodding, Ling Changfeng continued: "There are many interruptions today. We have to go to the county government to say goodbye first." After saying that, he bowed his hands to the mourning hall again, turned around and took Xiaolan and Xiaoyu with him.

Go to the county government.
