Midsummer is gradually passing, but the weather in Huainan City is still hot.

And in such weather, Sima Guang received a letter, a murder letter.

When the official opened the door, the letter fell like a piece of paper, and there was no signature on the letter, but there was a drop of blood, a drop of blood that had been dried, which made people look shocked.

After the official handed the letter to Sima Guang, Sima Guang hesitated for a moment to open it, but then cautiously opened it, and after the letter was opened, there was only a short word on it: kill!

It's a very strange letter, but it makes people feel very scary, Sima Guang frowned slightly, he didn't understand, who wanted to send such a letter to the government, did he want to play a prank or really wanted to kill, since he wanted to kill, but who did he want to kill?

Sima Guang couldn't figure it out, he wasn't a genius at solving cases, he just had a good literary accomplishment, so he sent someone to call Hua Lang.

Hua Lang stopped Sima Guang was also very surprised after receiving a murder letter, but when he read the letter, he was also a little unclear So, the letter paper is a good rice paper, but now in the Song Dynasty, rice paper is not very precious, and many rich and noble people have it to use, but I am afraid that there is nothing to see from the letter.

Although the handwriting is not deliberately distorted, it also seems too ordinary, it is a very formal small letter, and it is impossible to find any clues from the handwriting.

If the messenger really wanted to kill someone, Hanaro and they were afraid they couldn't stop it.

It's just that since the murderer sent the letter to the government office, he must have the intention of provocation, but since he wants to provoke, is it too much sincerity to send only such a piece of paper?

After some research, Hanarang had to sigh and say that this might be a prank by one person, and even if it wasn't a prank, they couldn't do anything now and had to wait.

There is no way, everyone has to wait.

I thought we would have to wait a long time, but it turned out to be different, and about the next evening, one person was killed.

The person who was killed was the patriarch of a large family, more than 50 years old this year, surnamed Sun Yang, this Sun Yang has a lot of family background, it is said that if his family's property is allowed to be spent by his children and grandchildren, as long as there is no loser in the family, his descendants can spend it for three generations.

Money has always been something that everyone is pursuing, so when everyone knew that Sun Yang was so rich, they were a little envious, and Hua Lang and Sima Guang and others were also envious, but they still hurried to the scene of the murder, maybe the murderer was the person who delivered the letter.

The scene of the murder was Sun Yang's bedroom, he was lying in a pool of blood on the ground, it looked very eye-catching, it was already midnight, and there were lights in the house, and these lights illuminated the corpse even more terrifyingly.

The autopsy was a bit difficult, so Hwarang had to inquire first.

The first thing to ask was the maid who found the body, he was Sun Yang's maid, every other hour to see if Sun Yang needed anything, her room lived next door to Sun Yang, but tonight she slept so drowsy that she didn't wake up until midnight to check, but after pushing the door open, she found that Sun Yang was dead.

A subordinate naturally does not dare to snooze, so Hua Lang suspects that the reason why the maid is like this may be because she was drugged.

In addition to the maid, there are many people in the Sun Mansion, Sun Yang has two sons, both of whom are in their twenties, the eldest Sun Hu and the second Sun Wei are helping to take care of the family's business.

At this time, they were crying so much that they couldn't wait to die for their father, so Hua Lang glanced at the two of them and asked, "Where were you all when the murder happened?" ”

The two of them said where they were, and thought they would say that they were sleeping in the house, but the result was unexpected, they both said that they were no longer at the house, one went to find a friend to drink, and the other was sorting out the account books in the store, and they hurried back after hearing the next person shouting.

The alibi of the two was proven, and Hanaro would naturally send someone to investigate.

At this time, he took out the murder letter and let the people here read it to see if they knew the handwriting on it, but the people in the entire Sun Mansion didn't feel that there was anything familiar with this handwriting after reading it.

Things are really full of weirdness.

There was no word all night, and after dawn the next day, Hua Lang began to examine the body, the deceased was stabbed in the chest, and there were many injuries in other places, but only the wound was fatal, and there were traces of a fight in the house, but it was not obvious, and the murderer killed very quickly, and he was solved without waiting for the deceased to start resisting.

After examining the body, Hua Lang searched the deceased's house again, but in the house, Hua Lang did not find any useful clues, but he found that there were traces of someone rummaging in the house, that is, the murderer killed someone, most likely for something?

After calling the people from Sun's house, Hua Lang looked at them and asked them if they knew that Sun Yang had anything worthy of being coveted by others, and those subordinates all said that their master was very rich, and maybe the murderer was for money, while Sun Yang's two sons, Sun Hu and Sun Wei, were contemplative, and after a long time, one of them came to Hua Lang and said, "Our father does have something that is worthy of being coveted by others, but this matter is too secret, can we go to the living room to say it?" ”

Hua Lang nodded, and then followed them into the living room, after sitting down in the living room, Sun Hu said very directly: "It is rumored that the reason why my Sun family can have today's property is because my father has a cornucopia, although the cornucopia can not produce gold as the legend says, but my father worships it, it can protect my Sun family's wealth, the cornucopia is generally only my father can see, and now the playboy has not found it, and he wants to be stolen." ”

Hua Lang naturally doesn't believe in this heresy, but just because he doesn't believe it doesn't mean that others don't believe it, so the situation that Sun Hu said is also extremely likely, and the murderer is the one who killed for that cornucopia.

But in Hua Lang's heart, he faintly felt that Sun Yang's killing had some connection with the murder letter, but what the connection was, he couldn't think of it at this time.

The situation that Sun Hu and Sun Wei said last night Hua Lang had sent someone to investigate, and the final result was that neither of them lied, which means that the two of them had no time to kill, and the two of them were innocent.

If the two of them were not murderers, then in the entire Sun Mansion, who else would think of killing Sun Yang? Is it possible that someone from outside committed a murder?
