Chapter 206 The evidence is conclusive, how to deal with the thief?
Who would go fishing for shit? Crazy!
Qin Wenyuan shrugged his shoulders and said: "I can see from your expressions that it is definitely an excellent hiding place. Just put the relics into a bag filled with water, then tie a rope and throw it into the septic tank. It will definitely be safe."
No one will find out."
"When you want to take it away, it's easy."
Deyuan frowned and said, "So the thief hid the relics in the septic tank?"
Qin Wenyuan shook his head: "No."
"First of all, the septic tank is a very special place. Ordinary people will never get close to it, so if someone often goes in and out of the septic tank, it is inevitable that others will not think there is a problem."
"Secondly, I went to the septic tank today and asked the person who was looking after it if anyone had been there in the past few days, but I was told that no one had been there."
"So... this most suitable hiding place has been eliminated!"
"Although there is absolutely no problem in hiding the relics, it is obvious that the thief has a more suitable place to hide. He will not be discovered and will not attract anyone's attention. It is a perfect place."
"Where?" Deyuan asked quickly.
Everyone else also looked at Qin Wenyuan.
Although they didn't say it, they were really convinced of Qin Wenyuan.
Because whether it is the bottom of the well or the septic tank, they are places they have never searched!
Qin Wenyuan had only been here for less than a day, but he not only found these places, but also eliminated them... This ability is really shocking.
Qin Wenyuan just mentioned three hiding places. If the first two are eliminated, then only one will be left.
So...this third place is definitely the place where the relics are hidden.
So where is this third place?
Where is it, or is it something they have ignored?
Everyone looked at Qin Wenyuan expectantly.
Qin Wenyuan didn't look at them. He focused on Abbot Dezhi, who kept turning the beads and chanting the Buddha's gold.
Qin Wenyuan took a deep breath and said slowly: "This third place gives you the courage, but you don't dare to investigate! Even if you are asked to investigate, you think it is a place where you will never hide!"
"This place is..."
Qin Wenyuan said calmly: "Master Abbot's Zen room!"
With a snap, the string of Dezhi's rotating beads suddenly broke.
More than a dozen prayer beads fell directly to the ground, beating constantly and running everywhere.
At this moment, the monks in the temple all widened their eyes, subconsciously staring at Abbot Dezhi.
At this moment, they were no longer so angry.
Because, Qin Wenyuan has used terrifying strength, and you have unknowingly begun to believe him and stand on his side...
Candles were burning in the hall, and suddenly a gust of wind blew and caused the flames to dance continuously.
The beating firelight illuminated the three Buddha statues in uncertain light and darkness at this moment. Suddenly they were bright as if they were covered with golden light, and sometimes they were as dark as demons in hell.
The difference between good and evil, Buddha or devil, may be just a thought.
The monks in the temple all looked at the presiding officer Dezhi with wide eyes at this moment. The expressions on their faces were very complicated at this time.
Subjectively, they naturally trust Dezhi. They do not trust their abbot to steal the most precious relics that belong to their temple.
But the terrifying ability Qin Wenyuan just showed made them trust Qin Zulai unconsciously.
So now, their hearts are very complicated and contradictory.
On the one hand, I don’t want to believe Qin Wenyuan.
On the other hand, he trusts Qin Wenyuan.
The complexity of his mind is almost the same as the Buddha's mind.
Even Deyuan, the head of Bodhidharma Academy and the second-largest figure in Huasheng Temple, couldn't help but look at Dezhi at this moment: "Brother, this...is this true?"
The beads that fell to the ground stopped beating. The black beads were hidden in the darkness and could no longer be found.
Dezhi closed his eyes and did not answer Deyuan's words. He just whispered to himself: "Amitabha."
Qin Wenyuan glanced at Dezhi, chuckled lightly, and didn't care.
Don’t these monks just like to play mysteries?
Then let the big sun shine on everything, so that you have no chance of mystery.
"Dezhi is the abbot of Huasheng Temple, and he arranged both you and the mission, so..."
Qin Wenyuan looked at the monks and said, "He probably didn't arrange for anyone to search his monastery, right? Or, even if he did, you all subconsciously thought that it would never be there, so you never went to search it, right?"
When the monks heard this, they said, "Look at me, and I'll look at you."
Then they all shook their heads.
It was obvious that although Qin Wenyuan did not see that scene with his own eyes, he guessed everything correctly.
It feels as if everything happening these days is under Qin Wenyuan's surveillance.
At this moment, Jie Cheng, who had been following Qin Wenyuan for a short day, couldn't help but be stunned.
The whole person was shocked to the extreme.
He looked at Qin Wenyuan with wide eyes and said, "Master Qin, this... did you discover these just by wandering around like that this day?"
Qin Wenyuan glanced at Jiacheng helplessly. He felt that this young monk had some misunderstandings about him.
He said: "Jie Cheng, to you, that is meaningless wandering, but to me, Mr. Qin, it is field investigation over and over again."
"It seems that I am walking around at will, but in fact I have been secretly observing the behavior of everyone in your temple. Then I, Mr. Qin, discovered that no one has entered the Zen room that I preside over."
"Later, I had a chat with you. Who asked you about hosting the Zen room? You said that the host likes to study Buddhism in peace and doesn't like to be disturbed by others, so no one will go to the Zen room if there is nothing to do."
"Even cleaning, you have to do it yourself... These words may be unintentional on your part, but they are an important clue to me."
"By the way, haven't you heard this ditty?"
Qin Wenyuan coughed and sang: "Some casual words solved my doubts. An inexplicable impulse asked me to continue to pursue. But I pay more attention to your every move. As long as the truth is revealed, everything will be clear to my heart."
~~"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Qin Wenyuan sang loudly.
A group of monks: "..."
Xu Gou couldn't help but raise his hands to cover his face, feeling a little embarrassed.
How is your young master doing today?
I just had a begging festival with my lady last night and I became so free and easy. Why did I still sing?
But let’s not say it, it’s really nice to listen to, and the taste is different from the songs on the list.
Di Renjie, on the other hand, had bright eyes. He felt that his teacher's song was full of criminal investigation principles.
Qin Wenyuan saw everyone looking at him dumbfounded, even his face was a little red.
In fact, this song is so brainwashing that I accidentally sang it.
This will never happen again.
He coughed, looked at the confused Jiecheng, and said, "So, I, Mr. Qin, am actually working hard to solve the case, but you don't know it."
After hearing Qin Wenyuan's words, Jiacheng recalled his misunderstanding about Lord Qin one day and suddenly felt so guilty.
"Master Qin, the young monk mistakenly blamed you, Master Qin." Jie Cheng seriously admitted his mistake.
Qin Wenyuan waved his hand magnanimously. The opinions of others have never been relevant to them.
He looked at everyone again and said: "To sum up, the abbot's Zen room is the only place where the relics can be hidden without being discovered or suspected by anyone."
"And I just said that after the thief stole the relics, he hid them in the main hall, so he later needed to come and take away the relics..."
"But after the relics were lost in the main hall, the place was under martial law. Under normal circumstances, it is not easy to enter or leave here... Of course, there are a lot of people coming in and out in the past few days, but that's all when there are many people together."
"And if the thief wants to take away the relics, he must do it when no one is around, otherwise it will be easy to be exposed. Therefore... you can think about it, who can come in and out of here alone in the past few days without being caught?
If you are suspicious, no one will think there is anything wrong with it.”
"I think……"
Qin Wenyuan looked around the crowd, then looked at Dezhi and Deyuan, and said, "No one has this right except Dezhi and Deyuan, right?"
Deyuan shook his head: "Although the poor monk can come and go as he pleases, he has to deal with various matters in the temple and has no chance to come here alone."
Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "That's even more obvious."
He looked at Dezhi and said: "When I came in the morning, Master Dezhi was the only one here to worship the Buddha, so it is obvious that Master Dezhi often comes in and out of here alone."
"And this can reversely verify my previous speculation!"
Qin Wenyuan said: "Abbot Dezhi, now that things have come to this, don't you think you should say something?"
After listening to Qin Wenyuan's inference, the monks looked at Dezhi with different expressions than before.
I still didn't want to believe it before.
But now, his trust in Qin Wenyuan has outweighed his reluctance to believe in Dezhi.
No matter how sentimental you are.
But I can’t resist the pressure of that iron-clad mountain of evidence!
"What you said is wrong!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.
Everyone looked around and saw Jie Zhi standing up again.
He looked at Qin Wenyuan with a somewhat bad expression and said, "Master Qin, your previous inference is reasonable, but Master Qin seems to have forgotten one thing."
"You have already deduced it before. You said that the culprits were hiding on the beams when the crime occurred. But when the crime occurred... the abbot in charge was putting out the fire in the woodshed!"
"And when we heard the sound later, it was the abbot who took us there with us. This was witnessed by everyone, so it completely conflicts with your previous inference. There is obviously something wrong with your inference!"
When everyone heard Jie Zhi's words, they thought for a while.
It’s true!
It was indeed the abbot who was leading them when they were fighting the fire.
Then, there is absolutely no way for the abbot to hide in the beams of the main hall.
So...the thief is not the abbot at all?
They couldn't help but whisper, and looked at Qin Wenyuan with expressions filled with confusion.
Di Renjie also looked at his mentor at this time.
In fact, he had discovered this conflict a long time ago, but he believed that since he could discover it, Enshi must have discovered it too.
But even so, the teacher is still so sure, which means that the teacher must have an explanation.
So he didn't panic at all, he just wanted to see what his mentor said.
Qin Wenyuan once again became the focus of attention.
"This is very simple."
Qin Wenyuan faced everyone's puzzled gazes, his face still showed a calm and confident smile that was in control of everything.
He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, half-smiling, and said: "That's because the person hiding here at that time was you... Jie Zhi!!"
"In other words, the person who committed this theft is not one person at all. There are two thieves, one is Dezhi, and the other... is you!"
"What!?"
"Two thieves?"
"Jie Zhi, too?"
"this……"
Everyone was stunned when they heard Qin Wenyuan's words.
They were suddenly shocked.
Their expressions changed instantly.
Looking at Jie Zhi, everyone subconsciously took a step away from Jie Zhi, their eyes full of defense and disbelief.
Jie Zhi's expression also changed drastically, and he said: "You...you are spitting nonsense, you are talking nonsense!"
"How could I be a thief!"
"Bloody spewing?"
Qin Wenyuan laughed and said: "Then I want to ask you, Jiezhi, where were you when the crime occurred?"
Ring said: "Of course I am fighting the fire with everyone."
"Can anyone prove it?"
"The situation was so urgent that no one cared about anyone else, so of course no one could prove it."
"No……"
Qin Wenyuan suddenly interrupted Jie Zhi's words.
He looked at Jiezhi and said, "No matter how chaotic the situation is, it's not difficult to take a quick glance and see where you are."
"What?" Jie Zhi frowned.
Qin Wenyuan looked at Xu Gou and said, "Xugou, it's up to you to tell him."
"yes!"
Xu Gou nodded and replied.
Immediately afterwards, he stood up quickly.
He looked at Jiezhi seriously and said: "I followed the young master's order and questioned everyone. I mainly asked them what they were doing that night, and asked them to tell the people they saw when they were fighting the fire.
.”
"As long as you can think of it, say it."
"You are right. The situation was urgent at the time. Many people were in a panic. It was difficult to remember exactly who they were. But at a glance, there will still be an impression in the mind. And one person may have a bad memory, but what about everyone?"
"So I wrote down all the names they mentioned and then compared them one by one."
"result……"
Xu Gou looked at Jie Zhi with a sneer and said, "Guess what I found?"
Jie Zhi suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
He couldn't help but swallowed and said, "What?"
Xu Gou snorted coldly and said: "As a result, I matched everyone in the temple in their confessions, but...only your name was missing!"
"That is to say, in that kind of panic situation, even if everyone doesn't deliberately remember, they still have an impression of who is putting out the fire next to them, and one person is wrong, two people are wrong, but what about ten people? Always
There is one person who will be remembered."
"So those people's names are all clearly listed, it just depends on how many times they appear! But you..."
Xu Gou sneered: "Your name has never appeared once. I think... except that you didn't appear there at all, there will be no second result at all, right?"
