Chapter 698 Footprint Tracking.

Ye Xing didn't want to be remembered by the people of Guli, but he still accepted the case.

Because Ye Xing wanted to know who killed Rosa and why he killed Rosa, not to mention, Ye Xing could see that Zheng He also wanted him to investigate this case.

Even if it weren't for King Luo Fuzi of Guli, Ye Xing would investigate the case.

Now that there is a request from King Luo Fuzi, Ye Xing has to agree to the investigation, so that he can do things more easily.

After some understanding, Ye Xing led everyone to the best spice shop.

At this time, the spice shop has been closed, and the very unkind little guy who sat in the shop yesterday was very weak, and when he saw someone entering the door, he didn't look at who it was, but just waved his hand and said: "We are not open here today, and I am afraid it will be difficult to open in the future." ”

Ye Xing smiled coldly: "We are not here to buy things, we are investigating the murder of Rosa at the request of King Luofuzi, who of you here is responsible and let him lead the way?" ”

When the little guy heard this, he dared to talk more, and hurriedly called out the person in charge, and the person in charge was the tick that Ye Xing wanted to investigate.

Seeing that it was Ye Xing and the others, Tick was also a little surprised in his heart, so he asked, "...... you?"

Ye Xing smiled coldly and explained: "We are the envoys of the Ming Dynasty, and King Luofuzi has given us full authority to investigate this matter, I hope you can cooperate!" ”

After listening to Ye Xing's words, he dared not cooperate, so he nodded again and again, and then led Ye Xing and them to Rosa's room.

Rosa's room is a nice attic with a staircase inside, and from the outside, you want to live in it.

The attic is divided into two floors, the first floor is decorated with a lot of ornate furniture, giving people a warm feeling, but on this first floor, Rosa's body is parked there.

It was the corner of the attic near the window, and there was a very delicate table in that place, on which Rosa lay but was dead.

The scene was well protected, Ye Xing entered the room to check, there were no external injuries on Rosa's body, but her lips were purple, which was obviously a sign of poisoning, but Rosa was in her room, how could she be poisoned?

Ye Xing immediately searched the room, and found that there were some muddy footprints at the door, which should have been caused by the rain last night, Ye Xing carefully identified those footprints, and found that the footprints were of different sizes and shapes, about three people came to find Rosa when it was raining, and who were these three people?

The person who was able to enter Rosa's manor and poison her room must have been someone close to her.

Ye Xing found a mold to expand those shoe prints, although in this era, it is difficult to find the murderer through fingerprints, but it is still possible to use shoe prints, after all, the shoes that everyone wears on their feet are different, not to mention that in this era of pure handicraft, every pair of shoes is different.

Even if two pairs of shoes are very similar, when worn by the same person, they will reveal different shapes, because even if the same person wears them, the different places he has been to and the different roads he has traveled will invisibly shape the shoes he wears.

After Ye Xing did this, he called Tick over, Tick was a little sad at this time, the look in his eyes yesterday was gone.

Ye Xing looked at Tick and asked, "You found Rosa's body first?" ”

Tick nodded: "Early this morning, I came to call Rosa to dinner, but I knocked on the door a few times and there was no response, I was worried that something would happen, so I found someone to pry the door open, but after the door opened, Rosa was lying here like this, it was very scary, I was scared, so I hurriedly went to report to the official, and then you came." ”

"You haven't moved anything in the house, have you?" Ye Xing continued to ask.

Tick shook his head: "Nothing moved?" ”

Ye Xing looked at the tick: "Really nothing moved?" ”

Tick nodded: "Really nothing moved!" ”

Ye Xing shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not like this, Rosa died of poisoning, but in her own room, she must have eaten or drunk something to be poisoned, but now there is nothing on Rosa's table, where are those things now?" ”

When Ye Xing said this, everyone looked at the place where Rosa was lying, and sure enough, not to mention the food, there was not even a wine glass, which means that after the murderer poisoned Rosa, he took away all those things.

Tick pointed to the table, didn't know what to say for a while, and finally had to say: "I don't know, when I came in this morning, there was nothing on the table!" ”

Ye Xing only smiled slightly after listening to the ticking words, and then continued to ask, "Last night, who came to look for Rosa?" ”

Tick shook her head: "I don't know, my place of residence is some distance from here, even if someone comes to look for Rosa, I don't know." ”

Ye Xing continued to ask: "A rich woman like Rosa, it is impossible that there is no maid in the room, right?" ”

Tick nodded again and again: "There is a maid named Xiaocui, but I haven't seen her until now, and I don't know where she went." ”

After listening to the ticking words, everyone felt that the maid named Xiaocui was very suspicious, and Ye Xing immediately ordered: "Send someone to find Xiaocui." ”

After Gu Li received the order, he left directly, but Ye Xing did not leave, he still continued to ask: "Rosa's manor is very large, if you want to come in, you can go to those places?" ”

Seeing this, Tick hesitated a little, and finally had no choice, so he replied: "We have a total of two doors, the front door is the door of the best spices, that door has been guarded because there is a shop, the back door is very close to Rosa's room, not far behind, so no one guards, but the doors are locked from the inside, unless someone opens the door, or through the wall." ”

Tick replied in detail, but Ye Xing didn't understand a little, there was nothing difficult about this, why did he hesitate?

And Ye Xing felt strange, if the murderer didn't come in from the front door, then it must have been from the back door, did he enter through the wall or did someone open the door for him?

Ye Xing came to the back door and checked carefully, there was rain last night, but there was no trace of turning over the entire wall, which means that the murderer walked in from the door, which means that someone opened the door for him.

The murderer was able to poison Rosa, which means that the murderer and Rosa knew each other, and the person who opened the door to the murderer was Rosa herself.

However, in order to be more safe, Ye Xing asked people to open the back door and check outside, but when Ye Xing finished checking, he began to doubt his speculation.
