Chitong felt that she had finally convinced her parents, but because Baozi did not agree to break off the engagement, she was very angry, so she asked the maid to ask Baozi out again.
The only confession left here is Baozi’s confession. When Baozi arrived at the promised west building, he didn’t see Chitong, so he waited in the west building. After waiting for almost half an hour, he still didn’t see Chitong coming, but he did.
The maid said that the lady was not free tonight and would make an appointment tomorrow.
Baozi felt depressed and drank a bottle of wine. He smelled of alcohol and didn't want to be seen by his parents when he went home, so he took a walk nearby to relieve the alcohol smell.
As I walked, I left the light and arrived on a dark slope. I tripped over some vines and stumbled forward. I couldn't control my momentum and rolled into the creek at the foot of the slope.
Fortunately, the slope was not high, so he was not seriously injured. However, when he stood up, he found a person in the creek, and he was so frightened that he ran away.
But not far away, he was suddenly startled. Those clothes... He ran back to the creek frantically and found that the person lying in the creek was Chi Tong. He stretched out his hand to explore and found Chi Tong.
already dead.
He was panicked and sad, and wanted to run back with Chi Tong on his back. When he ran near the west building, he saw Chi Tong's maid.
The maid shouted, attracting attention, and someone called the official.
Scholar Tangyuan’s confession was that he went out for a drink with his friends that night. His friends proved it, and people in the tavern could also prove it, so his suspicion was eliminated.
The maid said that Chitong went to the west building that night, but when she got there, she changed her mind and said she didn't want to see him. She would make an appointment another day and asked the maid to go into the west building and tell Baozi.
The maid did not see Chitong when she returned home, thinking she had gone home. However, when she arrived home, she found that the lady had not returned, so she went out to search near the west building. During the search, she found that Baozi had returned with the lady's body on his back.
Baozi's confession was like a reenactment of the case just now.
The confession he made stated that Chitong was strangled to death and there were finger prints left on his neck.
"Dad let his fiancé go," Zelan frowned, "because the fingerprints didn't match, so he was sure that he was not the murderer of Chi Tong, and after the maid came that night, he drank in the west building for half an hour.
, the people in the West Tower Tavern can also prove this."
"The fiancé's suspicion is quite high. Because the young lady regretted the marriage and slapped him, he killed her out of spite. It makes sense and he has a motive."
Tangyuan Road.
Chitong raised her chin, "But the lady didn't go to the west building. How could he meet the lady and kill her?"
"I guess the lady was walking nearby, and he met her and had an argument and strangled her to death?
But it’s not right, the fingerprints don’t match.”
Zelan said: "Yes, dad let him go based on this. Dad wrote at the back of the file that as long as there are still doubts, he cannot be said to be the murderer."
"Whether this handprint is correct or not, does it have something to do with the amount of force he used?"
Tangyuan has never handled a case and really doesn’t know much about these things.
The prince shook his head, "My fiancé is not a martial artist, and if he wants to go to the step of killing someone, he must be extremely hateful and must use all his strength. At that time, he had no reason to consider this."
"Brother is right. It was an impromptu appointment that night, and the woman broke the appointment. It is impossible for him to murder someone intentionally. If he killed someone, he would have killed someone out of anger. Killing someone out of anger does not require such thorough thinking."
"Are there only pinch marks on the deceased's body?"
Tangyuan asked.
Zelan said: "After reading the file, there are only pinch marks on the body. There are some other injuries, but they are all extremely minor."
"It was found in a creek. Is it possible that it drowned?"
"The evidence submitted by Wu Zuo did not mention drowning, but death from suffocation."
"Is it possible that there are some injuries that have not been detected?
For example, intracranial trauma.”
the prince asked.
Mr. Tiger was listening on the sidelines, rolled his eyes, and suddenly lay down with his paws on his neck. The tiger's eyes were wide and staring, and the tiger's tongue was stretched out, trying to inhale.
Everyone looked at it and were astonished. Was Mr. Hu suffering from epilepsy?
When I was about to go up to check, I saw that its head suddenly tilted and it seemed like it was not breathing. But then it rolled a few times and its body fell to the ground, motionless.
Zelan made a loud noise, jumped up and shouted, "I know, I know."
She rushed over and hugged Master Hu, "I understand, thank you Master Hu."
The prince and Tangyuan also understood immediately. Only Chi Tong still had a pair of blank eyes open. What did he know?
Outside, Lao Wu looked at this scene thoughtfully, but he didn't seem to fully understand it. So, did he have a low IQ?
