Chapter 267: Is There a Murderer?

Leng Yao turned the little girl's body on the ground over, but found that her forehead was stained with blood, which had now coagulated, and there were no wounds anywhere else on her body, probably because of the violent impact on her head, which caused her death. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The pregnant woman was lying on the bed, surrounded by signs of struggle, and in front of the bed there was an overturned bowl, and some brownish-black water stains were scattered around the shards.

Mu Zhiyu stepped forward, squatted down and observed, the faint smell of herbs on the ground made her further sure, and said lightly: "It's a fetal pill." ”

At this time, Ling Feng took some clean water and handed it to her, sprinkled a little on the broken bowl, and tested it in the same way, then Mu Zhiyu got up and said to Leng Yao: "There is also spider venom." ”

Leng Yao nodded, then looked at the ground with deep eyes, and said slowly: "Suppose this male guest officer opened the lid of the kettle and wanted to cool the water, but he didn't wait at the table, and when he came back, he directly closed the lid, and he didn't notice that the poisonous spider that fell from the beam happened to fall into the kettle, so he accidentally drank the water with spider venom."

If this assumption is true, then it is indeed a homicide caused by poisonous spiders. It's just that this pair of fetal pills wasn't sent in after the shopkeeper boiled it? Is it too much of a coincidence that you fell into a poisonous spider again and didn't notice it? ”

Everything at the scene is easily reminiscent of the poisoning of the pregnant woman who accidentally ingested the fetal pill that fell into the poisonous spider, and the whole body convulsed and fell on the bed and struggled, and then died of poison, but this coincidence is unconvincing.

Judging from the appearance, it seems that the cause of the man's death is the same. However, the deliberate cover-up of the real murderer couldn't escape Leng Yao's eyes.

Mu Zhiyu frowned and said, "Maybe there is another hypothesis. That's when the pregnant woman drank half of the tocosm and poured some water from the kettle into it. ”

After Mu Zhiyu finished speaking, he glanced at Leng Yao and found that his expression was impermanent, and he couldn't help but admire his ability to solve the case even more. After shaking his head, he continued: "However, these two hypotheses are probably deliberately led by the murderer to think in this direction. Just to cover up the process of his crime. ”

Leng Yao looked at her in surprise, as if she couldn't believe that she could see that the murderer was someone else.

Just as he was about to say something, the middle-aged man beside him walked in with the catcher of Yixing County at this moment, and reported to Leng Yaoyu: "Master, this is Xing Zhutou, the county magistrate of Yixing County asked him to come and help you investigate the case." ”

"I've seen Detective Leng in Xia Xingfei."

Leng Yao responded lightly: "Xing Zhutou doesn't have to be polite. ”

Leng Yao glanced at Mu Zhiyu, who was walking around the room, as if he was contemplating and thinking, his eyes were secretive, and then he turned to Xing Fei and continued: "I have checked the scene just now, and it seems that it is easy to think that the deceased was poisoned to death because he accidentally ingested water containing poisonous spiders.

However, I think this is just a false impression deliberately created by the murderer to cover up the murder process, and the murderer must still be in this inn. Presumably, Xing Zhutou has no objection to the prohibition of guests entering and leaving. ”

Xing Fei clenched his fists and said, "It's all up to the orders of the cold detective." Under the order, the officers and soldiers will be under martial law all around the building, and it will definitely be guaranteed that not even a single fly can fly out. ”

Leng Yao nodded, then looked at the shopkeeper who appeared at the scene of the murder first and asked, "What's your name?" ”

The shopkeeper was already so frightened that he hadn't come to his senses yet, and when he heard Leng Yao asking him, a spirit reacted and hurriedly said, "My name is Niu Erhu." ”

Leng Yao nodded, glanced at the brown-black water trail at the door and asked, "You were the first person to see the deceased, what kind of medicine was the decoction in your hand at that time?" ”

"Back to Lord Detective, when there was thunder last night, the male guest officer once instructed the little one to go to the kitchen to cook a bowl of fetal pills, saying that his wife was unstable because she was startled by thunder. And he commanded that another bowl should be brought this morning, and as soon as I opened the door, I saw ......"

"Is there only a tocolytic?"

"And a pot of boiling water."

"Is it the tocolytic medicine you brewed yourself or the master in the kitchen?"

"It's the kitchen master."

"And what about hot water?"

"It was also cooked by the kitchen master, but I poured it into the pot with my own hands and brought it over."

Leng Yao glanced at the middle-aged man beside him: "Uncle Leng......"

The middle-aged man nodded and walked out.

Leng Yao looked at Niu Erhu's expression without any abnormality, he should not be lying. Then he asked, "From the time you poured hot water to the time you brought it in, was it ever done by someone else?" ”

Niu Erhu replied with great certainty: "No." ”

"Are you sure you haven't?"

"Sure no." Niu Erhu suddenly reacted to something, and hurriedly asked, "Could it be that there is something wrong with that pot of water?" ”

"You don't have to be nervous, I'm just asking." Leng Yao looked at Niu Erhu and said lightly: "The medicine in your inn is fully prepared. It rained so hard last night, I'm afraid I didn't go to the pharmacy to catch it. ”

"Every day in our inn, there will be all kinds of guests who come to stay overnight, and the shopkeeper specially instructed that the medicinal materials for curing common diseases should be prepared in case the guests need it from time to time."

"Your shopkeeper has a big heart, there was a murder in his inn, and he hasn't appeared until now." After Mu Zhiyu looked at the entire room, he suddenly stepped forward and said.

Niu Erhu hurriedly said: "Last night, because of the amazing thunder and heavy rain, the shopkeeper got up in the middle of the night to urge us to meet any needs of the guests at all times." He walked around all the guest room doors, found no discomfort in the guests, and then went back to his room to rest. I'm afraid I'll wake up late this morning, but someone has already called. ”

As he was talking, the shopkeeper hurriedly walked in and hurriedly apologized: "Erhu is not bad at all." But I went to appease the other guests first, and then I rushed over right away. It's really a shame to let Detective Leng and Xing Zhutou wait for a long time. ”

"The shopkeeper can calm down and appease other guests as soon as possible, but he has a heart." Mu Zhiyu looked at the shopkeeper and said lightly, without any expression on his indifferent face.

The shopkeeper looked sad, sighed and said, "There was a murder in my inn, which is really heartbreaking, but I can't ignore the emotions of other guests."

The outside of the building is full of officers and soldiers, and the guests inside are not allowed to go out, they may be dissatisfied, or they may be afraid, as the shopkeeper of the inn, I can't turn a blind eye to this.

Please also ask Detective Leng and Xing Zhutou to find out the murderer, give justice to the deceased, and remove the black smoke and miasma in our windy building. ”

"How can the shopkeeper be so sure that he killed him?" Mu Zhiyu stared at him and asked coldly.

The shopkeeper was stunned when he heard this: "This ...... What else could it be if he didn't kill him? (To be continued.) )
