Chapter 80 The murderers alibi

The dance in the clouds will last for a whole hour on each floor. If it is true as Shang Fu said, Guanshi Cao can be eliminated.

But that young servant of the Wu family... had been staying with Wu Lin in the previous cases. He was a slave born in the Wu family, and had no connection with the previous deceased persons.

This is why Dali Temple reassures this young man and allows him to follow him and serve him.

Yu Qiansi lifted up her robe and sat calmly on the meandering drinking fountain. She reached out and took a handful of water from the canal and saw it pouring out from her fingertips.

He asked calmly: "Are you sure you were really on the sixth floor last night and never left?"

"It's natural!" Seeing that she didn't believe it, Shang Fu couldn't help but raise his voice: "There are people carrying slide poles in the middle of every floor. If we go to the wrong place, they will definitely find out!"

"What's more, with a room full of us, how could we all go to the wrong place?"

Yu Qiansi still lowered his head and sat on the edge of the stage, playing with the water and asking questions continuously.

"On the sixth floor, can you drink unlimited amounts of Ling Yun to get you drunk?"

"Did you drink too much before the dance started?"

"Have you ever sobered up or taken a pee?"

"Who took you there?"

"Besides you, were there any other guests on the sixth and seventh floors last night?"

"There are no railings between the Lingyun Pavilion stage and the corridor, right?"

"You are drunk, you are already dizzy, and you are being helped to sober up, but can you really tell where you are?"

"Nowadays, beheading cases are making people panic. Even if this show is novel, I'm afraid there won't be many dignitaries who can go up to the sixth and seventh floors to come. What's more, there are so many people from Dali Temple outside looking at it with serious faces."

A series of questions that do not need to be answered are mixed in with the sound of broken jade, misty and boundless, as if they are far away.

The sound was like a cold wind, blowing away Shang Fu's doubts.

He looked pale and understood what Yu Qiansi meant.

"Master Yu is saying that Manager Cao took advantage of the fact that we were drunk and moved us to the seventh floor by taking advantage of the connection between the different levels of the stage. Therefore, the performance we saw was from the seventh floor! That is, Zi Shi...

..”

After the performance is over, move these drunkards back to the sixth floor intact.

Simply...unconscious.

Boyi also sat cross-legged and reached out to touch the water in the canal. His fingertips were so cold that they throbbed.

Then he frowned and looked at the handsome man in red.

She hasn't rested for a long time...

"Is that why you suspected Manager Cao?"

"No," Yu Qiansi closed her eyes and touched the center of her eyebrows with fingers as cold as the ice of three winters that had just touched the canal water.

"It's because of the way the murderer killed Wu Lin..."

Seeing that he had reached the important point, Shang Fu's eyes lit up, and he sat up straight and waited for the next sentence.

But I saw that she had revealed it lightly and mentioned something else: "It's also because only two of us were caught by Pansi Yin."

Yu Qiansi opened her eyes and looked back at the ripples on the water, as if an ice mirror had been shattered in her eyes.

Pansi Yin, that's something from Huanmen.

What's more, if the murderer wanted to trap the two of them, he had to lay a bait and drug in advance.

In other words, the murderer not only knew that they had been to Lingyun Pavilion, but also knew where they were going.

Boyi recalled that yesterday, the three of them were sitting in Lingyun Pavilion. A maid lit incense on the tea table. The aroma was very soothing.

When Yu Qiansi arrived yesterday, he got straight to the point and pointed out the list. This must have aroused Manager Cao's vigilance and made him murderous.

This way, everything makes sense.

He is the owner of the list, so it is not difficult to put a name on it.

No wonder, he always felt that the arrangement of these dead people was such a coincidence...

I'm afraid, he not only changed Wang Song's name, but also rearranged all the names according to his needs. He even deliberately left two people who met the conditions on the fourth page.

What a great move to attack the east and the west.

Even the theft of Lingyun Pavilion must have been a foreshadowing he laid in order to muddy the waters and clear himself out.

He must have expected that if things got serious, someone would definitely notice this booklet. And they would also discover that a name had been filled in that shouldn't have appeared on it.

Then, everyone will ignore the coincidence of the entire booklet.

Instead, they will associate all of this with evil spirits.

Careful and thoughtful.

But...he still has doubts, and presumably she does too.

At this time, everyone in Lingyun Pavilion was in panic.

Qian Shifang looked at the free-spirited woman sitting alone in the middle of the meandering drinking fountain in the distance, and felt a drum in his heart.

He didn't know what happened, but it sounded like this matter had something to do with Lingyun Pavilion.

I don't know whether I should go forward and ask.

Yao Guang came quietly, with a cold face but a reassuring voice.

"Lord Si Yin, we just found this at Guanshi Cao's residence. My subordinates felt suspicious, so they brought it to you for explanation."

Yaoguang presented a piece of whitened indigo cotton towel and handed it over carefully.

She took it and looked at it, raising her eyebrows.

He put his two fingers together and picked up a long-lasting, translucent thing like an ice towel.

"Sir, be careful," Yaoguang reminded: "This thing is very thin, but it is sharp."

"At first, Anan found this in a pool of blood. He accidentally touched it with his hand, and his finger was immediately pricked with blood."

Shang Fu leaned forward to take a look and took a breath: "Oh my god, no way..."

"This is actually true!"

"Do you know what this is?" Yu Qiansi handed it over and asked.

Shang Fu took it and looked at it, his excitement was palpable.

"I read a miscellany, which mentioned that there is a kind of insect in the Kunlun Mountains, which is highly poisonous, but the muscles and bones in its body are extremely thin, silver-white, translucent, and extremely tough. It is indomitable.

!”

He tried grabbing the two ends and breaking them up and down, and it turned out to be tough.

"It's a pity that wild beasts are rampant in the Kunlun Mountains and are very dangerous. In addition, the insect is extremely poisonous, so no one dares to look for it."

"Where did you find so many insect tendons? Yaoguang, when you catch the murderer, ask him for me! I want to buy some for fun too!"

Boyi remembered that Shang Fu seemed to have mentioned yesterday that he liked to read miscellaneous books that the world thought were of little use, so he failed to pass the examination for a long time.

But what he did was indeed too outrageous.

Yu Qiansi made a rough estimate and found that the length is about right...

The now inch-long knot reminded her of the suddenly deepened spot on the corpse.

He narrowed his eyes and took one of them into his arms. He wrapped the others and handed them back to Yaoguang.

"Put it away and take it back to the Criminal Division."

Although he spoke softly, Boyi could sense a hint of the end of his power.

"Now that the truth has been revealed, why don't you rest first and wait for them to find the murderer?"

Yu Qiansi frowned coldly and stood up slowly.

"No, it's not over yet."

"Yao Guang, continue to search for the whereabouts of these two, be quick! And, they must be alive!"

"Bo Yi, I need help."

When Boyi saw this, he leaned over and listened to her whispering instructions in his ear.

The familiar fragrance dances on the tip of the nose, and the gentle breeze whispers in the ears, like the spring breeze awakening the fragrance of peach blossoms and a little bit of red fragrance.
