Chapter 100 The evidence is sufficient!The moment of truth is revealed!
The night wind howled in the courtyard, causing the officials present to subconsciously roll up their sleeves and shrink their necks to drive away the chill of the late autumn night.
They stamped their feet coldly while looking at the three figures in the study with worry and curiosity.
When they saw Lin Feng, they seemed to say something, and then Xiao Yu and Li Haomiao, who were opposite them, froze in place. Their expressions were as if they had heard the words that shocked them.
This made these officials suddenly curious, wanting to know what happened and what exactly Lin Feng said that shocked Xiao Yu and Li Haomiao so much.
Could it be that Lin Feng found some clues and was not far away from solving the case?
Thinking of this, their eyes couldn't help but light up a little, full of expectations for Lin Feng.
On the one hand, Wang Qinyuan's relationship with them was not bad, and they also hoped to catch the murderer quickly and avenge Wang Qinyuan. On the other hand, it was too cold. The late autumn night made them numb from the cold, and they were embarrassed. Asked to enter the room.
After all, everyone in Dali Temple is obviously in a state of being disturbed. Everyone in Dali Temple is holding their breath and busy performing tasks and looking for clues. They can't do shit, so how can they dare to make demands? ?
So they could only look at Lin Feng eagerly, hoping that Lin Feng would really have the power of a detective as rumored, and quickly find the murderer and rescue them from the ice cave.
…………
Inside the study.
After a while, Li Haomiao recovered from the shock in his heart.
He looked at Lin Feng, sincerely convinced, with admiration on his face: "You can see the subtle things, and you can see the big things from the small things. He is so strong...Lin Si is in the heart of the official, and he is really no different from the legendary god."
Lin Feng shook his head: "It's just a logical deduction based on the existing clues. It's nothing."
He looked at the paper that was burned to ashes and sighed: "It's a pity that the murderer burned the paper so cleanly that there is nothing left except that corner."
"So even if I infer that the murderer was killed to destroy the secret, I still have no way of knowing what kind of secret it is. If I can know what the secret is, I may be able to directly know the identity of the murderer based on the secret."
Xiao Yu listened to Lin Feng's words and recalled the way Lin Feng was scratching around in the ashes just now, and then he understood the purpose of Lin Feng's actions.
Only then did he understand why Lin Feng sighed and shook his head. Unfortunately, Wang Qinyuan was dead. No one knew what secret he had discovered.
"Speaking of the secret discovered by Wangjizheng...Xiaoguan remembered something. I wonder if it is related to the secret that Wangjizheng knew."
At this moment, Li Haomiao, the gossip master of Dali Temple, seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly looked at Lin Feng and Xiao Yu and said.
When Lin Feng and Lin Feng heard this, their eyes immediately fell on Li Haomiao.
Lin Feng thought of Li Haomiao's talent for inquiring about information, and his eyes flashed. Li Haomiao even knew the secrets of other departments in the court and even the three border countries. So maybe he could really know something about Wang Qinyuan, a colleague of Dali Temple. Unknown news.
Without hesitation, he asked directly: "Li Sicheng, what do you know?"
Seeing Lin Feng's inquiry, Li Haomiao, a well-known information expert, did not give in. He said: "I heard that in recent days, Wang Sizheng has been looking through the files that he reviewed and approved, even if it was his last day at Dali Temple yesterday, He still didn’t stop and kept reading until the last moment when he left Dali Temple last night.”
As Li Haomiao's voice fell, Lin Feng's eyes flashed suddenly.
Wang Qinyuan has also read through the files that were reviewed and reviewed before?Keep reading until the last minute of your tenure?He is a man who is about to retire and will go home to retire soon. Why would he do such a thing?
Is there something in the file that attracts Wang Qinyuan?
Or did Wang Qinyuan discover something?
He couldn't help but look at Xiao Yu, but saw Xiao Yu's expression of confusion and surprise.
Xiao Yu shook his head at Lin Feng: "I am busy with my affairs and have not paid attention to what Wang Sizheng has been doing these days, so I have no idea about this matter."
Lin Feng nodded, not surprised. After all, Xiao Yu, as the minister of Dali Temple, had too many things to do, and it was impossible to keep an eye on Wang Qinyuan, who was about to leave Dali Temple.
He and Xiao Yu looked at Li Haomiao again, waiting for Li Haomiao's follow-up story.
Sure enough, when Li Haomiao saw the two people looking at him, he took the initiative to share the information he knew without them asking.
"This matter actually has something to do with Lin Sizheng."
Lin Feng was surprised: "Is it related to me?"
Li Haomiao nodded: "Wang Sizheng did these things after the news came back that Lin Sizheng cracked the Suizhou case. In other words, Wang Sizheng was stimulated by Lin Sizheng."
Lin Feng's eyes flashed slightly, and he instantly understood what Li Haomiao meant.
He looked at Li Haomiao and said, "You mean... Wang Sizheng looked through those files because he discovered the secrets hidden in the Suizhou case by looking through the past files, and finally found out the truth about the Suizhou case. , caught the real thief...and did this incident have an impact on Ojimasa?"
Li Haomiao did not hide anything. He said: "That's right, because the Suizhou case was reviewed by Wang Sizheng...and Wang Sizheng's character is very cautious. He always takes the principle of not making mistakes in doing things. What he hopes most is that in his There is no unjust or wrong case in his hands, and he hopes that he will leave a good reputation after he retires and returns to his hometown and even after his death."
"But Lin Sizheng discovered a wrong case in his hands, and this case almost caused the innocent county magistrate to fall into the abyss. Even though His Majesty never blamed him because of his old age, he still blamed himself very much, and he was very angry with other people. Doubts inevitably arise about the case, and he is worried that he may have other unjust, false, or wrongful convictions in his hands."
"Therefore..."
Li Haomiao looked at Lin Feng and said solemnly: "In the last few days at Dali Temple, he kept reading the cases he had reviewed before, checking each file one by one until the last moment of his tenure."
Lin Feng raised his eyebrows slightly after listening to Li Haomiao's words. He looked at Li Haomiao and said, "What you said...did you infer it yourself? Or did you ask Wang Sizheng and Wang Sizheng told you?"
When Li Haomiao heard this, he said with some embarrassment: "There are Xiaguan's own inferences, but most of them are said by Wang Sizheng... Lin Sizheng also knows Xiaguan's temperament. Xiaguan likes to inquire about other people's information. Wang Sizheng is that It's been so unusual for a few days, I'm really curious."
"So the official went to ask, and Wang Simasa didn't hide anything. He told the official these things."
Li Haomiao was worthy of being a master of gossip in Dali Temple. His inquiry about Wang Sizheng provided Lin Feng with great help.
Lin Feng was thinking about Wang Qinyuan's extensive reading of files, his eyes flickered, he raised his head and looked at Xiao Yu, and saw Xiao Yu looking at him. They looked at each other, and both of them saw a strange color in each other's eyes.
Others don't know the true situation of the Suizhou case, but Lin Feng and Xiao Yu know it very well.
The reason why Lin Feng was able to discover the problem in the Suizhou case was because Lin Feng had a purpose and was consciously looking for it from the cases that Lin Feng, the former prime minister of Dali Temple, had solved.
Lin Feng's goal was to find out the secret of Lin Feng, the former prime minister of Dali Temple, a member of the Four Elephants Organization, and to find out what the guy's purpose was after hiding in Dali Temple for six years.
Therefore, he discovered the problem of the Suizhou case and followed the clues to find another member of the Four Elephants Organization, Suizhou Governor Zhou Zheng...
And now, because Lin Feng discovered the problems in the Suizhou case, Wang Qinyuan had doubts about the cases he had reviewed before, so he also reviewed the past files again like Lin Feng...
Could it be that Wang Qinyuan discovered something from it?
After all, Lin Feng was a newcomer to Dali Temple. He had no impression of those files. He just examined them as if they were new cases. The efficiency and speed were actually not very fast.
But Wang Qinyuan is different.
All cases in Dali Temple must be reviewed by Tamasa, but there are only two of them!
This also means... the cases that Wang Qinyuan has access to are at least half of all the cases in Dali Temple!
At least half of the cases initially tried by former Dali Temple Prime Minister Lin Feng had to go through Wang Qinyuan's hands!
Therefore, Wang Qinyuan had an impression of the circumstances of those cases. Now if he re-examines them with a critical eye, looking back at the cases, the efficiency and speed will definitely be much faster than that of Lin Feng, and maybe he will be able to discover something.
Shouldn't...
Lin Feng's eyes flickered, and he had a guess in his heart.
Could it be that Wang Qinyuan really discovered some secrets from the files?
I just didn’t know that what Wang Qinyuan discovered was the secret of the person who killed him tonight?
Or...is it the secret of Lin Feng, the former prime minister of Dali Temple?
If it is the secret of Lin Feng, the former prime minister of Dali Temple, then wouldn't tonight's case be related to the Four Elephants Organization?
Could this be a murderous and silencing operation organized by Sixiang! ?
Lin Feng's pupils twitched slightly. He and Xiao Yu looked at each other, and both of them saw this suspicion in each other's eyes.
Lin Feng immediately said: "Mr. Xiao, I would like to see all the files that Wang Sizheng has read these days."
Xiao Yu understood what Lin Feng meant. He looked at Li Haomiao and said without hesitation: "Li Sicheng, please take a trip yourself and bring all the files that Wang Sizheng has re-read these days."
When Li Haomiao heard this, he certainly would not delay. He nodded quickly: "There are borrowing records in the file room. I will be able to get them soon."
After speaking, he turned around and walked away quickly.
Watching Li Haomiao and his party leave, Xiao Yu took a long breath, his face became more solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "If the secret that Wang Si is discovering is really the secret of the Four Elephants Organization, then tonight's case, I'm afraid, The murderer is a member of the Four Elephants organization."
Lin Feng squinted his eyes, his dark eyes sparkling, and he said: "All of this is just our inference. Whether the truth is true or not, we can only know after checking the files that Wang Sizheng has read."
Xiao Yu frowned and said: "If Wang Si Zheng really discovered the secret of the Four Symbols organization, then why didn't he tell us immediately? Based on Wang Si Zheng's experience, I don't think he would delay. After all, he knew very well what the Four Symbols organization was doing. We mean something.”
Lin Feng thought for a while and said slowly: "I'm afraid that the secret discovered by Wang Sizheng is not comprehensive. He doesn't know that the secret points to the Four Elephants Organization. Maybe he just discovered a sign."
Xiao Yu pondered for a moment, nodded, and said: "This is extremely possible."
He looked at Lin Feng and saw Lin Feng looking at him with a very serious expression. Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment: "Zide, what are you doing?"
"Mr. Xiao, you must be mentally prepared." Lin Feng's voice was full of seriousness and earnestness.
Xiao Yu was startled and looked at Lin Feng in confusion.
Lin Feng said in a deep voice: "Even you don't know that Wang Si is looking through the past files, so the probability of others knowing is even smaller, and it is even less likely that people outside Dali Temple will know."
"So, if the real culprit this time is really someone from the Four Elephants Organization, then the problem will arise..."
Lin Feng looked at Xiao Yu seriously and said: "How did the murderer know that Wang Si was passing the files and knew their secrets? Even you and I don't know. None of these three people is from Dali Temple. , then how did they...know?"
Xiao Yu's pupils suddenly shrank, and he instantly understood what Lin Feng meant.
His expression suddenly changed, and he said hurriedly: "You mean... there is a ghost inside our Dali Temple!?"
Lin Feng nodded and said slowly: "Based on normal logical reasoning, this is the most likely situation."
"Of course, there is a possibility that Ojimasa accidentally let something slip when he was outside, but I don't think Ojimasa, who has always been cautious, would make such a mistake."
Xiao Yu frowned and pondered for a moment, his face became more and more ugly, and he said: "Wang Temple has experienced so many storms, so it will not make such a mistake... It seems that as you said, in our Dali Temple, except for Lin Feng, the former prime minister of Dali Temple, Besides, there are other moles!”
Lin Feng squinted his eyes and said: "This is actually not too surprising. If the task of the former Prime Minister of Dali Temple Lin Feng is very important, then it is normal for them to have other people in Dali Temple to help and support them."
"And, Mr. Xiao, don't forget..."
Lin Feng raised his eyes to look into Xiao Yu's eyes and mentioned a past incident: "In the Yushitai arson case, there is another matter that has not been found out yet."
Xiao Yu's heart stirred, and he quickly thought of what Lin Feng was referring to, and said: "You are referring to... the person who passed on information to the imperial censor Zhou Ran, who was the mastermind behind the Censor's Terrace arson case?"
Lin Feng nodded and said: "The reason why Zhou Ran calculated against Zheng Feng and Wu Minxing and devised the arson conspiracy was because someone used the files of Yushi Qin Mo to pass the news to him."
"But Qin Mo's suspicion has been eliminated. He is not a member of the Four Elephants Organization, so Zhou Ran's accomplices can only be people who came into contact with Qin Mo's archives that night. There are two such people, one is from Jinwu Guard. , one is the chief registrar of our Dali Temple."
Xiao Yu frowned and said, "But after many interrogations and investigations, the two of them can be ruled out as suspects."
Lin Feng said: "So, they are not from the Four Elephant Organization, so there is only one possibility left... The people from the Four Elephant Organization touched the dossier in a special and extremely covert way, and this is Lian Qin Modu has never discovered it!”
"But no matter what the people in the Four Elephants organization did, and how covert they were, if they want to use Qin Mo and the archives, they must have either had contact with the archives, or had contact with Qin Mo."
"And that night, when the people from the Jinwu Guard came into contact with Qin Mo, they were on the road, in front of a large crowd. In full view of the public, only one person came into contact with Qin Mo. The others had no chance to come into contact with Qin Mo, but he has been eliminated as a suspect. , so this can only prove..."
Lin Feng looked at Xiao Yu, whose face became increasingly serious, took a deep breath and said: "The place where the problem occurred is in our Dali Temple!"
"Of course, I have no absolute evidence to prove this... But if Wangji Zheng was killed by the people of the Four Elephants Organization because he discovered the secret of the Four Elephants Organization this time... then it can be confirmed that the members of the Four Elephants Organization The thief must be hiding in Dali Temple! There must be a ghost in our Dali Temple!"
Xiao Yu's heart sank completely as he listened to Lin Feng's analysis.
If there was a [-]% chance that it had nothing to do with the people from Dali Temple, now there is only a [-]% chance.
After all, this is no longer one case pointing to Dali Temple, but two cases pointing to Dali Temple at the same time.
Seeing Xiao Yu's ugly face, Lin Feng sighed: "It's a pity that Xianguan didn't know the follow-up results of the arson case until today. Otherwise, if Xianguan could have warned Mr. Xiao in advance, maybe Wang Sizheng would not have died because of this."
Xiao Yu shook his head: "It's not your fault. On the one hand, you are too busy, running back and forth all the time, and you can't even have a good rest for a day. On the other hand, we are worried that the people in the Four Elephants Organization are too cunning and sophisticated, so we treat them both We have conducted many very complicated inquiries and investigations, and it was not until the past two days that we finally confirmed that there was indeed nothing wrong with them.”
"Even if you could know earlier, it would only be a day or two in advance, but the people of the Four Elephants Organization are hidden so deeply that if they don't do something to expose themselves, it will be difficult to find them out. "
Lin Feng nodded.
He was naturally not a person who felt sorry for himself. He just felt that it was a pity that he knew the news too late, but he did not blame himself for it.
He was not lazy for a day or slacked off for a moment, and he had a completely clear conscience.
Lin Feng looked at Wang Qinyuan's body, his eyes narrowed slightly, with a cold look in his eyes: "If Wang Sizheng's death is not because of the Four Symbols organization, that's all. If it is really because of the Four Symbols organization... then this time, Xianguan Jue We won’t let this mole escape.”
"It happened twice last time and this time. No matter how cunning and cautious he is, he can't make two consecutive attacks without leaving any traces. After the case is solved, the official will start investigating Dali The inner ghost of the temple.”
When Xiao Yu heard this, he nodded heavily. The evil spirit must be eliminated!
"Now let's wait for Li Haomiao to get the file, and..."
He frowned slightly and looked out the door: "I don't know when I will find the blood vessel."
"Xiao Siqing, Lin Sizheng..."
Cao Cao was about to arrive. As soon as Xiao Yu finished speaking, he saw an official from Dali Temple running over and said, "We found the blood vessel!"
Upon hearing the official's words, Lin Feng and Xiao Yu's eyes suddenly flashed.
The two of them quickly came to the door and saw the Dali Temple official holding a porcelain vase in his hand. He held the porcelain vase in both hands and said, "The official found blood stains in this porcelain vase."
Lin Feng immediately took the porcelain bottle, opened the lid, and sniffed inside.
Xiao Yu asked nervously: "How?"
Lin Feng's eyes lit up and he said, "It does smell of blood."
With that said, Lin Feng turned the bottle upside down.
As the mouth of the bottle was turned upside down, a few drops of blood flowed out, and when it fell to the ground, it broke into countless petals.
Looking at the blood flowers on the ground, Xiao Yu's frown finally relaxed at this moment.
The existence of blood stains and porcelain bottles directly proves that Lin Feng's conclusion is completely correct!
They finally got the key evidence of the murderer!Finally, we are no longer at a loss as to the murderer, with no real clues!
Lin Feng turned the porcelain bottle upward again and looked towards the porcelain bottle.
Xiao Yu also looked closely at the porcelain bottle.
Looking at the porcelain bottle, Xiao Yu said: "This seems to be a very common small porcelain bottle used to hold pills." As soon as he finished speaking, his heart suddenly moved and he said: "Is the murderer infected with a disease? That's why he always carries it with him. With a medicine bottle?"
Lin Feng listened to Xiao Yu's words and nodded slightly: "This is indeed a possibility."
As he spoke, he looked carefully at the porcelain bottle.
As Xiao Yu said, this porcelain bottle is very common. It is pure white and does not even have a pattern. At first glance, it looks like the most ordinary batch-fired porcelain bottle.
There was some dirt on the surface of the porcelain bottle, which looked a little dirty. Lin Feng carefully removed the dirt bit by bit, and then discovered that there was still something stuck under the dirt.
These things were white, one by one, and they were very sticky when Lin Feng touched them with his fingers.
Lin Feng frowned slightly, looked for a long time, and said, "Mr. Xiao, look at these white things, are they glutinous rice?"
"Sticky rice?"
When Xiao Yu heard this, he checked it carefully, then nodded and said, "Yes, it's glutinous rice. Why is there glutinous rice on this porcelain vase?"
Lin Feng shook his head. He looked at the officials and said, "Where did you find this porcelain vase?"
The official said hurriedly: "The porcelain vase was found on the soil under an autumn chrysanthemum in the garden not far away."
"garden?"
Lin Feng thought for a while and said, "Is it the only garden that you will pass by on the way from the study to the front hall?"
The official nodded: "Yes, that's right there."
Lin Feng thought for a moment and said, "When you were looking for blood vessels, did you find blood stains anywhere?"
When Xiao Yu heard Lin Feng's words, his eyes flashed, and he immediately understood what Lin Feng meant. The murderer used porcelain bottles to hold blood in order to frame others.
And since it was a frame-up, the blood in the porcelain bottle must be poured out and let the other two people step on it. In this case, blood stains will definitely be left on the ground.
If blood stains can be found, Lin Feng's conclusion can be verified again.
The official did not hesitate and said directly: "In the yard, we found two places with blood stains."
"In the courtyard? Not the front hall?" Xiao Yu was stunned.
Isn't the courtyard the officials mentioned the courtyard opposite their study, where the officials are standing now?
The official nodded: "No trace of blood was found in the front hall, only in the courtyard here."
Xiao Yu couldn't help but look at Lin Feng, but saw that Lin Feng was not surprised. He said: "It makes sense."
"The lights are bright in the front hall. If you want to secretly drip blood, it will be easily discovered by others. But in the yard... when we were fighting the fire just now, everyone was in a panic, and everyone's attention was on fighting the fire. There was no People care about their feet...At this time, the murderer saw the right moment, sneaked up to the other two, and poured out the blood while everyone was not paying attention. It is the safest."
"And in order to put out the fire, many people were carrying water to fetch water. There was a well located just past the small garden. The murderer took advantage of the chaos and threw the porcelain bottle there. Who could have discovered it? Everything was perfect. No shortage of."
After listening to Lin Feng's words, Xiao Yu thought for a while, then nodded, and said in a deep voice: "This murderer is really cunning!"
Lin Feng smiled and said: "He can figure out a way to use blood to frame the other two people. How could there be any mistakes in the implementation?"
"However, this murderer is really calm in his heart. He can insist on waiting until everyone is putting out the fire before taking action, instead of taking action early and rest assured. This kind of calmness is not something ordinary people can have... After all, once the fire is put out, the scene and What he expected was different, he had no chance to pour out the blood, then he would be directly exposed."
Xiao Yu nodded in agreement.
This was the reason for his surprise just now. After all, the murderer spent more time in the front hall. If the murderer made his move first in the front hall, he wouldn't have to worry that he might not have the chance to make a move later... But the murderer just waited until everyone discovered the fire. time, he just waited until a safer time to take action, which is enough to prove how calm and even cold the murderer is.
Lin Feng continued to look at the porcelain vase, and he already understood the reason for the dirt on the porcelain vase.
But what about the glutinous rice stained on the porcelain bottle?
Where did this come from?
Could it be...that the murderer got it accidentally?
But Cao Wenqing, the doctor in the Ministry of Industry, Qi Chengqiang, the captain of Guoyi, and Zeng He, the censor of Yushitai, none of them were cooks. Who would accidentally get glutinous rice on the porcelain vase?
You know, tonight's banquet hasn't started yet, so no one has a chance to touch the glutinous rice.
In addition...in addition to the glutinous rice, Lin Feng also found some bump marks on the porcelain bottle.
Judging from the scratch marks, it seems to be quite new.
Why does it collide?Was it bumped when throwing the porcelain bottle?Or other reasons?
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and his brain was working rapidly.
The porcelain bottle belongs to the murderer, so any clues on the porcelain bottle may be the key to the identity of the murderer.
pill bottle.
Sticky rice.
Scratch marks.
These clues kept swirling in Lin Feng's mind.
At this time, Lin Feng remembered the gesture Wang Qinyuan left before his death. That gesture must be a pointer to the identity of the murderer, but what could it be pointing to?
Lin Feng turned around and looked at Wang Qinyuan's body, the pool of blood under Wang Qinyuan's body, the blood marks, and the very clear bloody footprints under the door...
Suddenly.
Lin Feng raised his head suddenly, and his eyes suddenly flashed with a gleam of light.
The corners of his mouth suddenly raised slightly.
A smile slowly emerged.
Xiao Yu had been staring at Lin Feng nervously. He knew that Lin Feng was thinking about the case. When he saw Lin Feng smiling, his heart moved. Xiao Yu hurriedly said: "Zide, how are you?"
Lin Feng's eyes flashed slightly. He looked at Xiao Yu and said, "Mr. Xiao, please find someone to help me find out... Which of the three doctors Cao has been infected with the disease recently?"
When Xiao Yu heard this, he immediately understood what Lin Feng meant.
He immediately said: "This is easy to say."
After speaking, he directly ordered the officials below to go and inquire.
Because the porcelain bottle belongs to the murderer, if you ask the murderer directly, the murderer will definitely not take the initiative to admit that he is sick. Therefore, you need to ask from the side, from other people, or simply go directly to Cao Wenqing and his family to ask, in order to know the exact Case.
The officials left quickly.
Xiao Yu looked at Lin Feng and asked, "The person who is infected is the murderer?"
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "It depends on how many people are infected."
Xiao Yu was startled, and then couldn't help but widen his eyes and said, "Could the murderer have even calculated this? But he can make other people's feet covered in blood, so he can't make other people sick too, right?"
Lin Feng shook his head and said: "Don't worry too much, Mr. Xiao. I didn't say that they must all be sick, but we must rule out this possibility. Otherwise, the scope of suspects will not be narrowed down."
Xiao Yu thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's indeed the case."
Time passed slowly like this, and more than two-quarters of an hour later, Li Haomiao came back in a hurry.
"Xiao Gong, Lin Sizheng, all the files have been brought back."
Li Haomiao rushed into the study and ordered people to move the files in, while saying: "We are lucky. Most of the files that Wang Sizheng has read have not been filed yet, so we only searched for a small part, and most of them can be moved directly." come over."
As the officials put the files away, six piles of files as high as the table were placed in front of them.
Looking at the six piles of files as high as the table, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel dizzy: "Wang Sizheng has read so many files in just a few days?"
Xiao Yu's eyelids also twitched a few times.
There are at least three to four hundred copies of this file.
It was simply not something that Lin Feng and the others could finish checking at once.
Li Haomiao nodded and said: "Although there are many files, these are indeed the files that Wang Sizheng has read during this period... Wang Sizheng is very familiar with these files, and he can know what is going on with his eyes closed, so Wang Sizheng read them soon."
Wang Qinyuan can see quickly, but I can't see that fast... Lin Feng felt a headache.
He looked at Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu's eyelids twitched and his brows furrowed: "Even if I help you, you can't finish it in a day or two, let alone if we look at it so quickly, we may not be able to find out what's hidden in it." question."
Of course, Xiao Yu can also ask other Dali Temple officials to help, but regardless of whether these officials can discover deeply hidden problems, even if they can, Xiao Yu cannot fully trust them... After all, as Lin Feng just deduced In that case, there is probably a mole in Dali Temple. Who knows whether the mole will deliberately conceal and deceive them?
When Lin Feng saw the troubled expression on Xiao Yu's face, he knew what Xiao Yu was thinking. He thought for a moment and suddenly said: "Mr. Xiao, actually we don't have to find any hidden problems."
Xiao Yu was stunned and looked at Lin Feng doubtfully.
Just listen to Lin Feng say: "Our current purpose is to determine whether Wang Simasa has discovered the murderer's secret from the files. In other words... if what Wang Simasa has discovered is the secret of the murderer himself and not others, then these files , there must be the name of the murderer, and there must be a case in which the murderer is involved."
"So, Mr. Xiao just asked our colleagues from Dali Temple to check these files and sift through the files about Cao Wenqing, Qi Chengqiang and Zeng He. If there are files related to them, it will not be too late for us to check these files carefully. But if not..."
Lin Feng's eyes flickered and he said meaningfully to Xiao Yu: "That means that the official's conclusion just now is correct. The murderer did not do it because of his own secret."
Li Haomiao looked confused as he listened to Lin Feng's words. What is not the murderer's own secret?Did Lin Feng and Xiao Siqing secretly share some news behind his back after he left?
ah!I really want to know!
Li Haomiao's gossip fire was burning brightly, but he did not dare to ask directly.
Xiao Yu thought for a moment and immediately understood what Lin Feng meant. His eyes suddenly lit up... Yes, what they wanted to confirm was whether the Four Elephants Organization was involved in this matter!
In other words, if there is no trace of Cao Wenqing and the others in the file, it can indirectly prove that this matter is indeed related to the Four Elephants Organization!
In this case, the identity of the murderer as a member of the Four Elephants Organization and the motives of the murderer can be determined.
As for what secret Wang Qinyuan discovered, as long as Lin Feng is given time, he believes that Lin Feng will definitely discover it, which is a matter of a few days sooner or later, so this is not the most urgent thing at the moment!
After thinking about this, Xiao Yu immediately called the other Si Cheng and several chief registrars over and asked them to screen the files of Cao Wenqing and the others according to Lin Feng's request.
Everyone immediately divided the file into several parts, and then quickly read through it.
Because we are only looking for names in the file, we do not need to analyze the problems in the file carefully, so it is very fast.
Lin Feng and Xiao Yu also joined in person.
File after file was turned over and file after file was thrown aside.
In this way, hundreds of files were screened in less than two quarters of an hour.
Li Haomiao and others began to report the results of their screening.
"not found!"
"I don't have any here either."
"The lower official doesn't either."
Everyone shook their heads.
Lin Feng looked at Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu shook his head: "I don't have any relevant files here."
"I don't have it here either."
Lin Feng put down the last file in his hand and said to Xiao Yu: "It seems that just as the official inferred...it was those guys who did it."
Hearing this, Xiao Yu's eyes suddenly flashed with coldness. He glanced at Li Haomiao and the others. Li Haomiao and the others only felt their scalps numb when they looked at them, and their faces were confused. They didn't know where they had offended Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu withdrew his gaze, looked at Lin Feng, and said, "Then what should we do next? Although we already know the identity of the person who did it, there is no file pointing to him, which makes it more difficult to determine who he is."
As he said that, Xiao Yu suddenly approached Lin Feng and whispered: "Would you like Cao Wenqing and the others to take off their clothes and check to see if they have the pattern of the Four Elephants Organization on their bodies?"
Lin Feng frowned: "It's a method, but I'm worried that it won't work."
Xiao Yu looked at Lin Feng, and Lin Feng said: "The Four Symbols organization has been exposed for a long time. They are so cautious, there is no way they still have those patterns on their bodies... I can find the patterns on their bodies in Suizhou and Shangzhou." , because it takes time for news to spread, they did not have time to deal with the fake Zhao Yanran in Shangzhou, and Zhou Zheng in Suizhou did not expect that the official would arrive suddenly, and they had no time to deal with it. "
"But Cao Wenqing and the other three are different. They have been in Chang'an all the time and have too much time to deal with it."
Xiao Yu thought for a while and nodded irritably: "You are right. With their caution and cunning, it is indeed impossible to leave such a big loophole for us."
Lin Feng said: "But even so, after I reveal the identity of the murderer, I can still check it out to judge whether the official's speculation is accurate."
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Xiao Yu was stunned. Then he suddenly raised his head and looked at Lin Feng and said, "You said after revealing the identity of the murderer? Have you already..."
Lin Feng met Xiao Yu's shocked and excited eyes and said with a smile: "Once the official knows what he wants to know, that will be enough."
At this moment, an official returned and said to Lin Feng: "Lin Sizheng, we have investigated clearly... Zeng Yushi was infected with wind and cold. He has been taking medicine for five days, but he has not recovered yet, and Cao Langzhong also had a fever a few days ago. I have a bit of a headache, but it is said that I have been enduring it and have not seen a doctor.”
After listening to the official's words, Xiao Yu's eyes narrowed. He couldn't help but look at Lin Feng: "Zide, you are really right. There is not only one person who is infected... This murderer is so cunning. I’ve thought of all this!”
When Lin Feng heard this, he narrowed his eyes, and the coolness and calmness that he used to show when solving cases appeared on his face, and he said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Xiao... Although there are two sick people, Mr. Cao did not see the doctor. The doctor doesn’t know how to take medicine, so it seems that the only one who really takes medicine is Zeng Yushi!”
Xiao Yu straightened his body suddenly and stared at Lin Feng: "Could it be that the murderer is..."
Lin Feng took a deep breath and said to Xiao Yu: "Xiao Siqing, I already understand the ins and outs of everything. Let Cao Langzhong and others come over. It's time to find out the real culprit and avenge Wang Sizheng."
I really can’t write anymore. It’s already [-] words. After finishing the investigation of the case, I still need thousands or even tens of thousands of words. It’s impossible to finish one chapter, so let’s stop here. I rarely break chapters, but occasionally I break them. I hope everyone understands.
In addition, we play a game where we have all the clues and so on. You might as well guess who the real murderer is and it will be revealed in the next chapter.
(End of this chapter)
The night wind howled in the courtyard, causing the officials present to subconsciously roll up their sleeves and shrink their necks to drive away the chill of the late autumn night.
They stamped their feet coldly while looking at the three figures in the study with worry and curiosity.
When they saw Lin Feng, they seemed to say something, and then Xiao Yu and Li Haomiao, who were opposite them, froze in place. Their expressions were as if they had heard the words that shocked them.
This made these officials suddenly curious, wanting to know what happened and what exactly Lin Feng said that shocked Xiao Yu and Li Haomiao so much.
Could it be that Lin Feng found some clues and was not far away from solving the case?
Thinking of this, their eyes couldn't help but light up a little, full of expectations for Lin Feng.
On the one hand, Wang Qinyuan's relationship with them was not bad, and they also hoped to catch the murderer quickly and avenge Wang Qinyuan. On the other hand, it was too cold. The late autumn night made them numb from the cold, and they were embarrassed. Asked to enter the room.
After all, everyone in Dali Temple is obviously in a state of being disturbed. Everyone in Dali Temple is holding their breath and busy performing tasks and looking for clues. They can't do shit, so how can they dare to make demands? ?
So they could only look at Lin Feng eagerly, hoping that Lin Feng would really have the power of a detective as rumored, and quickly find the murderer and rescue them from the ice cave.
…………
Inside the study.
After a while, Li Haomiao recovered from the shock in his heart.
He looked at Lin Feng, sincerely convinced, with admiration on his face: "You can see the subtle things, and you can see the big things from the small things. He is so strong...Lin Si is in the heart of the official, and he is really no different from the legendary god."
Lin Feng shook his head: "It's just a logical deduction based on the existing clues. It's nothing."
He looked at the paper that was burned to ashes and sighed: "It's a pity that the murderer burned the paper so cleanly that there is nothing left except that corner."
"So even if I infer that the murderer was killed to destroy the secret, I still have no way of knowing what kind of secret it is. If I can know what the secret is, I may be able to directly know the identity of the murderer based on the secret."
Xiao Yu listened to Lin Feng's words and recalled the way Lin Feng was scratching around in the ashes just now, and then he understood the purpose of Lin Feng's actions.
Only then did he understand why Lin Feng sighed and shook his head. Unfortunately, Wang Qinyuan was dead. No one knew what secret he had discovered.
"Speaking of the secret discovered by Wangjizheng...Xiaoguan remembered something. I wonder if it is related to the secret that Wangjizheng knew."
At this moment, Li Haomiao, the gossip master of Dali Temple, seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly looked at Lin Feng and Xiao Yu and said.
When Lin Feng and Lin Feng heard this, their eyes immediately fell on Li Haomiao.
Lin Feng thought of Li Haomiao's talent for inquiring about information, and his eyes flashed. Li Haomiao even knew the secrets of other departments in the court and even the three border countries. So maybe he could really know something about Wang Qinyuan, a colleague of Dali Temple. Unknown news.
Without hesitation, he asked directly: "Li Sicheng, what do you know?"
Seeing Lin Feng's inquiry, Li Haomiao, a well-known information expert, did not give in. He said: "I heard that in recent days, Wang Sizheng has been looking through the files that he reviewed and approved, even if it was his last day at Dali Temple yesterday, He still didn’t stop and kept reading until the last moment when he left Dali Temple last night.”
As Li Haomiao's voice fell, Lin Feng's eyes flashed suddenly.
Wang Qinyuan has also read through the files that were reviewed and reviewed before?Keep reading until the last minute of your tenure?He is a man who is about to retire and will go home to retire soon. Why would he do such a thing?
Is there something in the file that attracts Wang Qinyuan?
Or did Wang Qinyuan discover something?
He couldn't help but look at Xiao Yu, but saw Xiao Yu's expression of confusion and surprise.
Xiao Yu shook his head at Lin Feng: "I am busy with my affairs and have not paid attention to what Wang Sizheng has been doing these days, so I have no idea about this matter."
Lin Feng nodded, not surprised. After all, Xiao Yu, as the minister of Dali Temple, had too many things to do, and it was impossible to keep an eye on Wang Qinyuan, who was about to leave Dali Temple.
He and Xiao Yu looked at Li Haomiao again, waiting for Li Haomiao's follow-up story.
Sure enough, when Li Haomiao saw the two people looking at him, he took the initiative to share the information he knew without them asking.
"This matter actually has something to do with Lin Sizheng."
Lin Feng was surprised: "Is it related to me?"
Li Haomiao nodded: "Wang Sizheng did these things after the news came back that Lin Sizheng cracked the Suizhou case. In other words, Wang Sizheng was stimulated by Lin Sizheng."
Lin Feng's eyes flashed slightly, and he instantly understood what Li Haomiao meant.
He looked at Li Haomiao and said, "You mean... Wang Sizheng looked through those files because he discovered the secrets hidden in the Suizhou case by looking through the past files, and finally found out the truth about the Suizhou case. , caught the real thief...and did this incident have an impact on Ojimasa?"
Li Haomiao did not hide anything. He said: "That's right, because the Suizhou case was reviewed by Wang Sizheng...and Wang Sizheng's character is very cautious. He always takes the principle of not making mistakes in doing things. What he hopes most is that in his There is no unjust or wrong case in his hands, and he hopes that he will leave a good reputation after he retires and returns to his hometown and even after his death."
"But Lin Sizheng discovered a wrong case in his hands, and this case almost caused the innocent county magistrate to fall into the abyss. Even though His Majesty never blamed him because of his old age, he still blamed himself very much, and he was very angry with other people. Doubts inevitably arise about the case, and he is worried that he may have other unjust, false, or wrongful convictions in his hands."
"Therefore..."
Li Haomiao looked at Lin Feng and said solemnly: "In the last few days at Dali Temple, he kept reading the cases he had reviewed before, checking each file one by one until the last moment of his tenure."
Lin Feng raised his eyebrows slightly after listening to Li Haomiao's words. He looked at Li Haomiao and said, "What you said...did you infer it yourself? Or did you ask Wang Sizheng and Wang Sizheng told you?"
When Li Haomiao heard this, he said with some embarrassment: "There are Xiaguan's own inferences, but most of them are said by Wang Sizheng... Lin Sizheng also knows Xiaguan's temperament. Xiaguan likes to inquire about other people's information. Wang Sizheng is that It's been so unusual for a few days, I'm really curious."
"So the official went to ask, and Wang Simasa didn't hide anything. He told the official these things."
Li Haomiao was worthy of being a master of gossip in Dali Temple. His inquiry about Wang Sizheng provided Lin Feng with great help.
Lin Feng was thinking about Wang Qinyuan's extensive reading of files, his eyes flickered, he raised his head and looked at Xiao Yu, and saw Xiao Yu looking at him. They looked at each other, and both of them saw a strange color in each other's eyes.
Others don't know the true situation of the Suizhou case, but Lin Feng and Xiao Yu know it very well.
The reason why Lin Feng was able to discover the problem in the Suizhou case was because Lin Feng had a purpose and was consciously looking for it from the cases that Lin Feng, the former prime minister of Dali Temple, had solved.
Lin Feng's goal was to find out the secret of Lin Feng, the former prime minister of Dali Temple, a member of the Four Elephants Organization, and to find out what the guy's purpose was after hiding in Dali Temple for six years.
Therefore, he discovered the problem of the Suizhou case and followed the clues to find another member of the Four Elephants Organization, Suizhou Governor Zhou Zheng...
And now, because Lin Feng discovered the problems in the Suizhou case, Wang Qinyuan had doubts about the cases he had reviewed before, so he also reviewed the past files again like Lin Feng...
Could it be that Wang Qinyuan discovered something from it?
After all, Lin Feng was a newcomer to Dali Temple. He had no impression of those files. He just examined them as if they were new cases. The efficiency and speed were actually not very fast.
But Wang Qinyuan is different.
All cases in Dali Temple must be reviewed by Tamasa, but there are only two of them!
This also means... the cases that Wang Qinyuan has access to are at least half of all the cases in Dali Temple!
At least half of the cases initially tried by former Dali Temple Prime Minister Lin Feng had to go through Wang Qinyuan's hands!
Therefore, Wang Qinyuan had an impression of the circumstances of those cases. Now if he re-examines them with a critical eye, looking back at the cases, the efficiency and speed will definitely be much faster than that of Lin Feng, and maybe he will be able to discover something.
Shouldn't...
Lin Feng's eyes flickered, and he had a guess in his heart.
Could it be that Wang Qinyuan really discovered some secrets from the files?
I just didn’t know that what Wang Qinyuan discovered was the secret of the person who killed him tonight?
Or...is it the secret of Lin Feng, the former prime minister of Dali Temple?
If it is the secret of Lin Feng, the former prime minister of Dali Temple, then wouldn't tonight's case be related to the Four Elephants Organization?
Could this be a murderous and silencing operation organized by Sixiang! ?
Lin Feng's pupils twitched slightly. He and Xiao Yu looked at each other, and both of them saw this suspicion in each other's eyes.
Lin Feng immediately said: "Mr. Xiao, I would like to see all the files that Wang Sizheng has read these days."
Xiao Yu understood what Lin Feng meant. He looked at Li Haomiao and said without hesitation: "Li Sicheng, please take a trip yourself and bring all the files that Wang Sizheng has re-read these days."
When Li Haomiao heard this, he certainly would not delay. He nodded quickly: "There are borrowing records in the file room. I will be able to get them soon."
After speaking, he turned around and walked away quickly.
Watching Li Haomiao and his party leave, Xiao Yu took a long breath, his face became more solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "If the secret that Wang Si is discovering is really the secret of the Four Elephants Organization, then tonight's case, I'm afraid, The murderer is a member of the Four Elephants organization."
Lin Feng squinted his eyes, his dark eyes sparkling, and he said: "All of this is just our inference. Whether the truth is true or not, we can only know after checking the files that Wang Sizheng has read."
Xiao Yu frowned and said: "If Wang Si Zheng really discovered the secret of the Four Symbols organization, then why didn't he tell us immediately? Based on Wang Si Zheng's experience, I don't think he would delay. After all, he knew very well what the Four Symbols organization was doing. We mean something.”
Lin Feng thought for a while and said slowly: "I'm afraid that the secret discovered by Wang Sizheng is not comprehensive. He doesn't know that the secret points to the Four Elephants Organization. Maybe he just discovered a sign."
Xiao Yu pondered for a moment, nodded, and said: "This is extremely possible."
He looked at Lin Feng and saw Lin Feng looking at him with a very serious expression. Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment: "Zide, what are you doing?"
"Mr. Xiao, you must be mentally prepared." Lin Feng's voice was full of seriousness and earnestness.
Xiao Yu was startled and looked at Lin Feng in confusion.
Lin Feng said in a deep voice: "Even you don't know that Wang Si is looking through the past files, so the probability of others knowing is even smaller, and it is even less likely that people outside Dali Temple will know."
"So, if the real culprit this time is really someone from the Four Elephants Organization, then the problem will arise..."
Lin Feng looked at Xiao Yu seriously and said: "How did the murderer know that Wang Si was passing the files and knew their secrets? Even you and I don't know. None of these three people is from Dali Temple. , then how did they...know?"
Xiao Yu's pupils suddenly shrank, and he instantly understood what Lin Feng meant.
His expression suddenly changed, and he said hurriedly: "You mean... there is a ghost inside our Dali Temple!?"
Lin Feng nodded and said slowly: "Based on normal logical reasoning, this is the most likely situation."
"Of course, there is a possibility that Ojimasa accidentally let something slip when he was outside, but I don't think Ojimasa, who has always been cautious, would make such a mistake."
Xiao Yu frowned and pondered for a moment, his face became more and more ugly, and he said: "Wang Temple has experienced so many storms, so it will not make such a mistake... It seems that as you said, in our Dali Temple, except for Lin Feng, the former prime minister of Dali Temple, Besides, there are other moles!”
Lin Feng squinted his eyes and said: "This is actually not too surprising. If the task of the former Prime Minister of Dali Temple Lin Feng is very important, then it is normal for them to have other people in Dali Temple to help and support them."
"And, Mr. Xiao, don't forget..."
Lin Feng raised his eyes to look into Xiao Yu's eyes and mentioned a past incident: "In the Yushitai arson case, there is another matter that has not been found out yet."
Xiao Yu's heart stirred, and he quickly thought of what Lin Feng was referring to, and said: "You are referring to... the person who passed on information to the imperial censor Zhou Ran, who was the mastermind behind the Censor's Terrace arson case?"
Lin Feng nodded and said: "The reason why Zhou Ran calculated against Zheng Feng and Wu Minxing and devised the arson conspiracy was because someone used the files of Yushi Qin Mo to pass the news to him."
"But Qin Mo's suspicion has been eliminated. He is not a member of the Four Elephants Organization, so Zhou Ran's accomplices can only be people who came into contact with Qin Mo's archives that night. There are two such people, one is from Jinwu Guard. , one is the chief registrar of our Dali Temple."
Xiao Yu frowned and said, "But after many interrogations and investigations, the two of them can be ruled out as suspects."
Lin Feng said: "So, they are not from the Four Elephant Organization, so there is only one possibility left... The people from the Four Elephant Organization touched the dossier in a special and extremely covert way, and this is Lian Qin Modu has never discovered it!”
"But no matter what the people in the Four Elephants organization did, and how covert they were, if they want to use Qin Mo and the archives, they must have either had contact with the archives, or had contact with Qin Mo."
"And that night, when the people from the Jinwu Guard came into contact with Qin Mo, they were on the road, in front of a large crowd. In full view of the public, only one person came into contact with Qin Mo. The others had no chance to come into contact with Qin Mo, but he has been eliminated as a suspect. , so this can only prove..."
Lin Feng looked at Xiao Yu, whose face became increasingly serious, took a deep breath and said: "The place where the problem occurred is in our Dali Temple!"
"Of course, I have no absolute evidence to prove this... But if Wangji Zheng was killed by the people of the Four Elephants Organization because he discovered the secret of the Four Elephants Organization this time... then it can be confirmed that the members of the Four Elephants Organization The thief must be hiding in Dali Temple! There must be a ghost in our Dali Temple!"
Xiao Yu's heart sank completely as he listened to Lin Feng's analysis.
If there was a [-]% chance that it had nothing to do with the people from Dali Temple, now there is only a [-]% chance.
After all, this is no longer one case pointing to Dali Temple, but two cases pointing to Dali Temple at the same time.
Seeing Xiao Yu's ugly face, Lin Feng sighed: "It's a pity that Xianguan didn't know the follow-up results of the arson case until today. Otherwise, if Xianguan could have warned Mr. Xiao in advance, maybe Wang Sizheng would not have died because of this."
Xiao Yu shook his head: "It's not your fault. On the one hand, you are too busy, running back and forth all the time, and you can't even have a good rest for a day. On the other hand, we are worried that the people in the Four Elephants Organization are too cunning and sophisticated, so we treat them both We have conducted many very complicated inquiries and investigations, and it was not until the past two days that we finally confirmed that there was indeed nothing wrong with them.”
"Even if you could know earlier, it would only be a day or two in advance, but the people of the Four Elephants Organization are hidden so deeply that if they don't do something to expose themselves, it will be difficult to find them out. "
Lin Feng nodded.
He was naturally not a person who felt sorry for himself. He just felt that it was a pity that he knew the news too late, but he did not blame himself for it.
He was not lazy for a day or slacked off for a moment, and he had a completely clear conscience.
Lin Feng looked at Wang Qinyuan's body, his eyes narrowed slightly, with a cold look in his eyes: "If Wang Sizheng's death is not because of the Four Symbols organization, that's all. If it is really because of the Four Symbols organization... then this time, Xianguan Jue We won’t let this mole escape.”
"It happened twice last time and this time. No matter how cunning and cautious he is, he can't make two consecutive attacks without leaving any traces. After the case is solved, the official will start investigating Dali The inner ghost of the temple.”
When Xiao Yu heard this, he nodded heavily. The evil spirit must be eliminated!
"Now let's wait for Li Haomiao to get the file, and..."
He frowned slightly and looked out the door: "I don't know when I will find the blood vessel."
"Xiao Siqing, Lin Sizheng..."
Cao Cao was about to arrive. As soon as Xiao Yu finished speaking, he saw an official from Dali Temple running over and said, "We found the blood vessel!"
Upon hearing the official's words, Lin Feng and Xiao Yu's eyes suddenly flashed.
The two of them quickly came to the door and saw the Dali Temple official holding a porcelain vase in his hand. He held the porcelain vase in both hands and said, "The official found blood stains in this porcelain vase."
Lin Feng immediately took the porcelain bottle, opened the lid, and sniffed inside.
Xiao Yu asked nervously: "How?"
Lin Feng's eyes lit up and he said, "It does smell of blood."
With that said, Lin Feng turned the bottle upside down.
As the mouth of the bottle was turned upside down, a few drops of blood flowed out, and when it fell to the ground, it broke into countless petals.
Looking at the blood flowers on the ground, Xiao Yu's frown finally relaxed at this moment.
The existence of blood stains and porcelain bottles directly proves that Lin Feng's conclusion is completely correct!
They finally got the key evidence of the murderer!Finally, we are no longer at a loss as to the murderer, with no real clues!
Lin Feng turned the porcelain bottle upward again and looked towards the porcelain bottle.
Xiao Yu also looked closely at the porcelain bottle.
Looking at the porcelain bottle, Xiao Yu said: "This seems to be a very common small porcelain bottle used to hold pills." As soon as he finished speaking, his heart suddenly moved and he said: "Is the murderer infected with a disease? That's why he always carries it with him. With a medicine bottle?"
Lin Feng listened to Xiao Yu's words and nodded slightly: "This is indeed a possibility."
As he spoke, he looked carefully at the porcelain bottle.
As Xiao Yu said, this porcelain bottle is very common. It is pure white and does not even have a pattern. At first glance, it looks like the most ordinary batch-fired porcelain bottle.
There was some dirt on the surface of the porcelain bottle, which looked a little dirty. Lin Feng carefully removed the dirt bit by bit, and then discovered that there was still something stuck under the dirt.
These things were white, one by one, and they were very sticky when Lin Feng touched them with his fingers.
Lin Feng frowned slightly, looked for a long time, and said, "Mr. Xiao, look at these white things, are they glutinous rice?"
"Sticky rice?"
When Xiao Yu heard this, he checked it carefully, then nodded and said, "Yes, it's glutinous rice. Why is there glutinous rice on this porcelain vase?"
Lin Feng shook his head. He looked at the officials and said, "Where did you find this porcelain vase?"
The official said hurriedly: "The porcelain vase was found on the soil under an autumn chrysanthemum in the garden not far away."
"garden?"
Lin Feng thought for a while and said, "Is it the only garden that you will pass by on the way from the study to the front hall?"
The official nodded: "Yes, that's right there."
Lin Feng thought for a moment and said, "When you were looking for blood vessels, did you find blood stains anywhere?"
When Xiao Yu heard Lin Feng's words, his eyes flashed, and he immediately understood what Lin Feng meant. The murderer used porcelain bottles to hold blood in order to frame others.
And since it was a frame-up, the blood in the porcelain bottle must be poured out and let the other two people step on it. In this case, blood stains will definitely be left on the ground.
If blood stains can be found, Lin Feng's conclusion can be verified again.
The official did not hesitate and said directly: "In the yard, we found two places with blood stains."
"In the courtyard? Not the front hall?" Xiao Yu was stunned.
Isn't the courtyard the officials mentioned the courtyard opposite their study, where the officials are standing now?
The official nodded: "No trace of blood was found in the front hall, only in the courtyard here."
Xiao Yu couldn't help but look at Lin Feng, but saw that Lin Feng was not surprised. He said: "It makes sense."
"The lights are bright in the front hall. If you want to secretly drip blood, it will be easily discovered by others. But in the yard... when we were fighting the fire just now, everyone was in a panic, and everyone's attention was on fighting the fire. There was no People care about their feet...At this time, the murderer saw the right moment, sneaked up to the other two, and poured out the blood while everyone was not paying attention. It is the safest."
"And in order to put out the fire, many people were carrying water to fetch water. There was a well located just past the small garden. The murderer took advantage of the chaos and threw the porcelain bottle there. Who could have discovered it? Everything was perfect. No shortage of."
After listening to Lin Feng's words, Xiao Yu thought for a while, then nodded, and said in a deep voice: "This murderer is really cunning!"
Lin Feng smiled and said: "He can figure out a way to use blood to frame the other two people. How could there be any mistakes in the implementation?"
"However, this murderer is really calm in his heart. He can insist on waiting until everyone is putting out the fire before taking action, instead of taking action early and rest assured. This kind of calmness is not something ordinary people can have... After all, once the fire is put out, the scene and What he expected was different, he had no chance to pour out the blood, then he would be directly exposed."
Xiao Yu nodded in agreement.
This was the reason for his surprise just now. After all, the murderer spent more time in the front hall. If the murderer made his move first in the front hall, he wouldn't have to worry that he might not have the chance to make a move later... But the murderer just waited until everyone discovered the fire. time, he just waited until a safer time to take action, which is enough to prove how calm and even cold the murderer is.
Lin Feng continued to look at the porcelain vase, and he already understood the reason for the dirt on the porcelain vase.
But what about the glutinous rice stained on the porcelain bottle?
Where did this come from?
Could it be...that the murderer got it accidentally?
But Cao Wenqing, the doctor in the Ministry of Industry, Qi Chengqiang, the captain of Guoyi, and Zeng He, the censor of Yushitai, none of them were cooks. Who would accidentally get glutinous rice on the porcelain vase?
You know, tonight's banquet hasn't started yet, so no one has a chance to touch the glutinous rice.
In addition...in addition to the glutinous rice, Lin Feng also found some bump marks on the porcelain bottle.
Judging from the scratch marks, it seems to be quite new.
Why does it collide?Was it bumped when throwing the porcelain bottle?Or other reasons?
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and his brain was working rapidly.
The porcelain bottle belongs to the murderer, so any clues on the porcelain bottle may be the key to the identity of the murderer.
pill bottle.
Sticky rice.
Scratch marks.
These clues kept swirling in Lin Feng's mind.
At this time, Lin Feng remembered the gesture Wang Qinyuan left before his death. That gesture must be a pointer to the identity of the murderer, but what could it be pointing to?
Lin Feng turned around and looked at Wang Qinyuan's body, the pool of blood under Wang Qinyuan's body, the blood marks, and the very clear bloody footprints under the door...
Suddenly.
Lin Feng raised his head suddenly, and his eyes suddenly flashed with a gleam of light.
The corners of his mouth suddenly raised slightly.
A smile slowly emerged.
Xiao Yu had been staring at Lin Feng nervously. He knew that Lin Feng was thinking about the case. When he saw Lin Feng smiling, his heart moved. Xiao Yu hurriedly said: "Zide, how are you?"
Lin Feng's eyes flashed slightly. He looked at Xiao Yu and said, "Mr. Xiao, please find someone to help me find out... Which of the three doctors Cao has been infected with the disease recently?"
When Xiao Yu heard this, he immediately understood what Lin Feng meant.
He immediately said: "This is easy to say."
After speaking, he directly ordered the officials below to go and inquire.
Because the porcelain bottle belongs to the murderer, if you ask the murderer directly, the murderer will definitely not take the initiative to admit that he is sick. Therefore, you need to ask from the side, from other people, or simply go directly to Cao Wenqing and his family to ask, in order to know the exact Case.
The officials left quickly.
Xiao Yu looked at Lin Feng and asked, "The person who is infected is the murderer?"
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "It depends on how many people are infected."
Xiao Yu was startled, and then couldn't help but widen his eyes and said, "Could the murderer have even calculated this? But he can make other people's feet covered in blood, so he can't make other people sick too, right?"
Lin Feng shook his head and said: "Don't worry too much, Mr. Xiao. I didn't say that they must all be sick, but we must rule out this possibility. Otherwise, the scope of suspects will not be narrowed down."
Xiao Yu thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's indeed the case."
Time passed slowly like this, and more than two-quarters of an hour later, Li Haomiao came back in a hurry.
"Xiao Gong, Lin Sizheng, all the files have been brought back."
Li Haomiao rushed into the study and ordered people to move the files in, while saying: "We are lucky. Most of the files that Wang Sizheng has read have not been filed yet, so we only searched for a small part, and most of them can be moved directly." come over."
As the officials put the files away, six piles of files as high as the table were placed in front of them.
Looking at the six piles of files as high as the table, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel dizzy: "Wang Sizheng has read so many files in just a few days?"
Xiao Yu's eyelids also twitched a few times.
There are at least three to four hundred copies of this file.
It was simply not something that Lin Feng and the others could finish checking at once.
Li Haomiao nodded and said: "Although there are many files, these are indeed the files that Wang Sizheng has read during this period... Wang Sizheng is very familiar with these files, and he can know what is going on with his eyes closed, so Wang Sizheng read them soon."
Wang Qinyuan can see quickly, but I can't see that fast... Lin Feng felt a headache.
He looked at Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu's eyelids twitched and his brows furrowed: "Even if I help you, you can't finish it in a day or two, let alone if we look at it so quickly, we may not be able to find out what's hidden in it." question."
Of course, Xiao Yu can also ask other Dali Temple officials to help, but regardless of whether these officials can discover deeply hidden problems, even if they can, Xiao Yu cannot fully trust them... After all, as Lin Feng just deduced In that case, there is probably a mole in Dali Temple. Who knows whether the mole will deliberately conceal and deceive them?
When Lin Feng saw the troubled expression on Xiao Yu's face, he knew what Xiao Yu was thinking. He thought for a moment and suddenly said: "Mr. Xiao, actually we don't have to find any hidden problems."
Xiao Yu was stunned and looked at Lin Feng doubtfully.
Just listen to Lin Feng say: "Our current purpose is to determine whether Wang Simasa has discovered the murderer's secret from the files. In other words... if what Wang Simasa has discovered is the secret of the murderer himself and not others, then these files , there must be the name of the murderer, and there must be a case in which the murderer is involved."
"So, Mr. Xiao just asked our colleagues from Dali Temple to check these files and sift through the files about Cao Wenqing, Qi Chengqiang and Zeng He. If there are files related to them, it will not be too late for us to check these files carefully. But if not..."
Lin Feng's eyes flickered and he said meaningfully to Xiao Yu: "That means that the official's conclusion just now is correct. The murderer did not do it because of his own secret."
Li Haomiao looked confused as he listened to Lin Feng's words. What is not the murderer's own secret?Did Lin Feng and Xiao Siqing secretly share some news behind his back after he left?
ah!I really want to know!
Li Haomiao's gossip fire was burning brightly, but he did not dare to ask directly.
Xiao Yu thought for a moment and immediately understood what Lin Feng meant. His eyes suddenly lit up... Yes, what they wanted to confirm was whether the Four Elephants Organization was involved in this matter!
In other words, if there is no trace of Cao Wenqing and the others in the file, it can indirectly prove that this matter is indeed related to the Four Elephants Organization!
In this case, the identity of the murderer as a member of the Four Elephants Organization and the motives of the murderer can be determined.
As for what secret Wang Qinyuan discovered, as long as Lin Feng is given time, he believes that Lin Feng will definitely discover it, which is a matter of a few days sooner or later, so this is not the most urgent thing at the moment!
After thinking about this, Xiao Yu immediately called the other Si Cheng and several chief registrars over and asked them to screen the files of Cao Wenqing and the others according to Lin Feng's request.
Everyone immediately divided the file into several parts, and then quickly read through it.
Because we are only looking for names in the file, we do not need to analyze the problems in the file carefully, so it is very fast.
Lin Feng and Xiao Yu also joined in person.
File after file was turned over and file after file was thrown aside.
In this way, hundreds of files were screened in less than two quarters of an hour.
Li Haomiao and others began to report the results of their screening.
"not found!"
"I don't have any here either."
"The lower official doesn't either."
Everyone shook their heads.
Lin Feng looked at Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu shook his head: "I don't have any relevant files here."
"I don't have it here either."
Lin Feng put down the last file in his hand and said to Xiao Yu: "It seems that just as the official inferred...it was those guys who did it."
Hearing this, Xiao Yu's eyes suddenly flashed with coldness. He glanced at Li Haomiao and the others. Li Haomiao and the others only felt their scalps numb when they looked at them, and their faces were confused. They didn't know where they had offended Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu withdrew his gaze, looked at Lin Feng, and said, "Then what should we do next? Although we already know the identity of the person who did it, there is no file pointing to him, which makes it more difficult to determine who he is."
As he said that, Xiao Yu suddenly approached Lin Feng and whispered: "Would you like Cao Wenqing and the others to take off their clothes and check to see if they have the pattern of the Four Elephants Organization on their bodies?"
Lin Feng frowned: "It's a method, but I'm worried that it won't work."
Xiao Yu looked at Lin Feng, and Lin Feng said: "The Four Symbols organization has been exposed for a long time. They are so cautious, there is no way they still have those patterns on their bodies... I can find the patterns on their bodies in Suizhou and Shangzhou." , because it takes time for news to spread, they did not have time to deal with the fake Zhao Yanran in Shangzhou, and Zhou Zheng in Suizhou did not expect that the official would arrive suddenly, and they had no time to deal with it. "
"But Cao Wenqing and the other three are different. They have been in Chang'an all the time and have too much time to deal with it."
Xiao Yu thought for a while and nodded irritably: "You are right. With their caution and cunning, it is indeed impossible to leave such a big loophole for us."
Lin Feng said: "But even so, after I reveal the identity of the murderer, I can still check it out to judge whether the official's speculation is accurate."
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Xiao Yu was stunned. Then he suddenly raised his head and looked at Lin Feng and said, "You said after revealing the identity of the murderer? Have you already..."
Lin Feng met Xiao Yu's shocked and excited eyes and said with a smile: "Once the official knows what he wants to know, that will be enough."
At this moment, an official returned and said to Lin Feng: "Lin Sizheng, we have investigated clearly... Zeng Yushi was infected with wind and cold. He has been taking medicine for five days, but he has not recovered yet, and Cao Langzhong also had a fever a few days ago. I have a bit of a headache, but it is said that I have been enduring it and have not seen a doctor.”
After listening to the official's words, Xiao Yu's eyes narrowed. He couldn't help but look at Lin Feng: "Zide, you are really right. There is not only one person who is infected... This murderer is so cunning. I’ve thought of all this!”
When Lin Feng heard this, he narrowed his eyes, and the coolness and calmness that he used to show when solving cases appeared on his face, and he said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Xiao... Although there are two sick people, Mr. Cao did not see the doctor. The doctor doesn’t know how to take medicine, so it seems that the only one who really takes medicine is Zeng Yushi!”
Xiao Yu straightened his body suddenly and stared at Lin Feng: "Could it be that the murderer is..."
Lin Feng took a deep breath and said to Xiao Yu: "Xiao Siqing, I already understand the ins and outs of everything. Let Cao Langzhong and others come over. It's time to find out the real culprit and avenge Wang Sizheng."
I really can’t write anymore. It’s already [-] words. After finishing the investigation of the case, I still need thousands or even tens of thousands of words. It’s impossible to finish one chapter, so let’s stop here. I rarely break chapters, but occasionally I break them. I hope everyone understands.
In addition, we play a game where we have all the clues and so on. You might as well guess who the real murderer is and it will be revealed in the next chapter.
