Mo Fanchen nodded calmly and said: "According to Brother Wang's speculation, this is indeed the case, but let's first see if there are any other clues on Yun Zhongqing, and there may be some clues in the debris around him."
Then everyone divided into groups of two. Except for Jiang Shuling, who was still standing there in a daze, the three groups began to search the small room.
The items scattered on the ground, as well as tables and chairs have been identified, but there are no clues.
The three groups finally gathered in front of the bed and began to examine Yun Zhongqing's body.
Zhuge Zheng said at this time: "The clothes are scattered, and even the bun is completely untied. Brother Wang may be right. Yun Zhongqing did fight with the killer before.
In addition, the fatal wound was the knife in the chest, killing him with one blow.
What is somewhat puzzling is that there are some blood stains on his right index finger."
Meng Qing looked at Wang Tianyun and Mo Fanchen and said: "According to what I said before, you two are indeed the most suspect. I suggest you search them. If there has been a fight, there will be scars on your body.
Even the bruises won't dissipate too quickly in one night, I don't know if you two mind this."
Wang Tianyun and Mo Fanchen nodded at the same time, and then Meng Qing and Zhuge Zheng started to check the conditions of the two men one by one.
But in the end, the attack was in vain. Except for some old injuries, there were no traces of new injuries on the two people's bodies.
At this time, there was another deadlock, and everyone returned to the hall.
A long table appeared in the center, with four chairs on each side. There was some food and water on the table.
Seeing this, everyone chose a chair to sit down and fell into silence for a while.
Meng Qing suddenly said: "In short, the killer should be one of Wang Tianyun and Mo Fanchen. Since these two can explain why they are not killers, we will then make a judgment."
"It is too early to conclude that one of these two men is the killer."
Everyone looked at the speaker and couldn't help but be a little surprised. They saw that Jiang Shuling seemed to have grown a lot in an instant. Although his expression was still frightened and uneasy, he tried hard to calm down and continued.
"Fairy Yan, I don't understand why Yun Zhongqing asked you how you two knew about the birth of the underground palace when he was in Jinting City? You don't know Yun Zhongqing, but I am very familiar with him.
Along the way, he was very strange and unusually silent, and I saw him privately looking at Fairy Meng from the Yue Nv Sword Club and Meng Shaoxia from the Dugu Demon Sect over there many times.
I wonder if you have known each other for a long time?"
Lin Mo, who had been secretly observing everyone, showed a slightly surprised expression when he saw this. Unexpectedly, Jiang Shuling, who had always been a fool, suddenly became enlightened.
Wang Tianyun interrupted from the side: "Young Master Jiang, what we should be most concerned about now is who the killer is. As for Yun Zhongqing's previous strange actions, we can wait until the underground palace is over and discuss it in detail.
Meng Shaoxia has already stated that he is a diviner. As for Fairy Meng, in my opinion, she must not be good at close combat. I have also seen the name of Fairy Renjian on the list of people.
Without a sword, this Fairy Meng is probably the weakest one present. Even if she is chosen as the killer, judging from her current situation, it is estimated that it will be extremely difficult to successfully kill someone."
Jiang Shuling glanced at Wang Tianyun, then lowered his head and wondered what he was thinking. Yun Zhongqing's death reminded him of Yun Zhongqing's abnormality along the way.
Unfortunately, at that time, I only had the excitement of participating in the underground palace trial, so I ignored this unusual scene.
Everyone fell into silence again. Neither Wang Tianyun nor Mo Fanchen opened their mouths to explain anything, or they didn't know how to explain.
Jiang Shuling's words just now were like a pebble thrown into the sea. It only caused ripples and then sank.
No one present seemed to care much about whether there was any entanglement between Yun Zhongqing, Meng Qing and Meng Ting. After all, Wang Tianyun later explained very clearly that the most important thing at the moment was to find the killer.
However, Yan Ruoxue kept this matter in mind. From the beginning, she felt that it was too much of a coincidence that her junior sister got the news about the opening of the underground palace.
After taking a look at Jiang Shuling, she planned to discuss the matter with him in private.
After an unknown amount of time, the cold voice sounded again.
[Half an hour later, the testers returned to their respective rooms and started the first day of voting.]
Everyone's eyes crossed, and finally Zhuge Zheng stood up and said: "Wang Shaoxia and Brother Mo. At present, you two are the most suspected. I hope you two can tell me the reason why you are not a killer?"
Wang Tianyun stood up first and said calmly: "First of all, this is the first time that I have met everyone here, and I have no grievances with you. If I were a killer, my first target would probably be a casual cultivator.
Mo Shaoxia.
Secondly, when looking for clues, I was trying hard to guess who the killer was. Currently, the suspects have been narrowed down to me and Mo Shaoxia, probably because of my previous speculation.
In the end, it became clear to me that the killer was not myself."
Then everyone nodded and turned their attention to Mo Fanchen.
Mo Fanchen's face remained normal, but his palms were full of sweat. He knew that if he couldn't explain clearly next, he might be thrown out in the first round, and the result would be death.
He stood up, coughed dryly and said, "I'm not the killer.
The reason is very simple, because I am not strong enough, and I cannot deal with an old Jianghu like Yun Zhongqing with my strength.
Secondly, I only know you all a few hours before Wang Shaoxia, and there is no grudge between us.
To put it bluntly, if I were a killer, my targets would probably be Fairy Meng here and Young Master Jiang over there.
Because apart from these two people, I have no chance of winning against anyone else.
Just now, Wang Shaoxia and I were checked by Brother Zhuge and Meng Shaoxia, and there were no signs of fighting.
Based on your observation skills, you should know that although I know some grappling skills, it is basically impossible to fight that Yun Zhongqing head-on one-on-one without getting hurt.
As for Wang Shaoxia, his performance from the beginning was unfathomable. I even doubted that everyone present might not be his opponent.
However, the name Wang Tianyun is very unfamiliar in the world. As for his experience in seclusion, only he knows about it, right?
Besides, I know very well that I am not a killer."
After finishing speaking, Mo Fanchen noticed that everyone was looking at Wang Tianyun with doubts in their eyes, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Although this move would offend Wang Tianyun, it was enough as long as he could survive.
Compared with Wang Tianyun, the only advantage he has is that he is weak enough. Yes, weakness has become an advantage at this time.
Faced with a weak enough self and Wang Tianyun, who is full of mystery and has always been highlighted by himself as being strong, the choice is easy.
Although being mysterious and powerful does not mean that he is a killer, people now follow Mo Fanchen's words and their distrust of Wang Tianyun has reached an extremely high level. This is enough.
[After each trialist returns to the room, he can read out the name of the killer he wants to choose, and finally return to the hall to announce the result. ]
Wang Tianyun did not refute anything, and did not care about the scrutiny of everyone. He returned to his room first, and several other people also entered the bronze door of his room one after another.
Half an hour later.
Everyone gathered in the hall again.
[The first day, voting results, failure, identity reset. 】
