"Oh..." Xiao Chen was speechless by Xiao Liu. As the saying goes, there is a hierarchy of knowledge and expertise, and Xiao Liu is the expert in handling this kind of case.
"Master Liu, what you mean is that the cups and bowls in the restaurant may have their fingerprints on them?" Feng Zhiqiu said in his heart that this pretty boy is so awesome that even Master Xiao was embarrassed. Seeing Xiao Chen's embarrassment, he hurriedly spoke to help him resolve it. .
"Lord Feng, I think this is possible." Liu Mofeng was very polite to Feng Zhiqiu.
"Come here! Get the rubbings and extract all the fingerprints on all the cups and saucers." Feng Zhiqiu felt secretly ashamed because he had not thought of this.
"If it is an outside assassin, he will definitely come to visit before committing the assassination. Mr. Feng, have you investigated and interviewed him? Has anyone suspicious appeared in the ten days before the incident?" Liu Mofeng asked.
"Oh, I've checked. There are some outsiders, but they are all officials who came to the capital to report on their duties, gentry visiting friends, and merchants doing business. They have all been checked, and no suspects have been found." Feng Zhiqiu said.
This restaurant is located in a bustling street, with gorgeous decoration and exquisite food. It is considered a high-end place, and it caters to high-end consumer groups. Traffickers and ordinary people will not come here.
Liu Mofeng just nodded and said nothing more.
The murder weapon was a broad-backed, thick-edged knife. Although it was not a standard weapon and was made by a private person, it was obviously an imitation of Jin Yiwei's Xiuchun Dao. The shape, weight, handle and other details were very similar.
The cowhide armor he wore was also imitated from the Jin Yiwei. The workmanship was quite exquisite, but it was not shoddy.
According to the memories of witnesses at the scene and the guards of the East Palace, this group of people seemed to be professional soldiers, because they were very organized when they acted, and they were also calm and organized when they retreated.
It feels like they are well-trained, but they are definitely not just a bunch of people.
After the on-site investigation, the group went to the Jinyiwei Detective Factory again, and Liu Mofeng personally inspected the corpse. The corpse was severely decomposed and had even begun to ooze corpse water. Song Sheng and the others only extracted clear fingerprints of two people, and the others were all. It's so blurry that it's hard to tell.
But Liu Mofeng still held their hands and looked at them for a long time, then took off their clothes with his own hands and carefully inspected their bodies.
I don’t know how he could hold back from spitting it out?
Xiao Chen and the others hid so far away that they couldn't stand the choking smell...
After a day of investigation, I returned to the West Factory for a meeting to study the case in the evening. The situation was not very optimistic.
Jin Yiwei and Fengyang Mansion were not incompetent. Apart from ignoring the fingerprints at the scene and not extracting the fingerprints of the dead, they basically did everything they could.
Although some of the fingerprints extracted are very clear, it actually doesn't mean much. Who can you compare with if you can't catch the murderer?
There is no fingerprint database now...
A quarter of an hour after the incident, the Jin Yiwei sealed all the gates of Fengyang City, only entering and not exiting!
They asked the soldiers guarding the city and found no suspicious people during this period, let alone anyone who forced their way through.
A city-wide manhunt began two hours after the incident. Jinyiwei, Fengyang Mansion, Soldiers and Horses Division, Forbidden Army, and even the Nine Gates Admiral Mansion all mobilized thousands of people to cooperate with the operation. As Fu Yan said, it was almost overturned. The ground is three feet high!
Hundreds of people were arrested, but after interrogation they were all cleared of suspicion.
In other words, I gained nothing and worked so hard for nothing!
Fortunately, after the last attempt to assassinate the Queen failed, almost all the Tianxuanhui brothers withdrew from Fengyang. Otherwise, most of them would have been caught in this big manhunt!
"Mo Feng, what do you think?" Seeing that Liu Mofeng had remained silent, Xiao Chen couldn't help but ask.
"It's hard to say." Liu Mofeng shook his head.
"Haha, are you embarrassed to say it, or do you dare not say it?" Zhuge Xiaosheng said suddenly.
"Since it's hard to say, naturally I don't dare to say it." Liu Mofeng said.
"Are you two playing riddles? Can you just say what you want?" Xiao Chen said angrily.
"I don't think Tianxuan would do it." Liu Mofeng came up with such a meaningless sentence first.
Do you need to say this?
We already knew it!
"It's not the work of Jianghu people." Liu Mofeng continued to exclude.
oh? How can we see this? Everyone expressed confusion.
"People in the Jianghu will definitely use the weapons of their own sect that they are familiar with. It is impossible for them all to use knives. And as far as I know, there is no sword-wielding sect in the Jianghu that uses this kind of knife." Liu Mofeng said.
In addition, when heroes in the martial arts fight with others, they all fight on their own, and there can be no rules.
Since the last incident in the palace, the security level in Fengyang City has been greatly strengthened. The interrogation of outsiders, especially those suspected of being in the Jianghu, is extremely strict.
To sum up, it is unlikely that it was done by heroes.
"It's not like the rebels did it." The rebels Liu Mofeng mentioned were the teams that rebelled against Zhou from all walks of life.
The reason is that these guys never said a word from the beginning to the end. If these rebels were responsible, they would definitely make a big publicity.
Because for them, the significance of publicizing the assassination of the prince may be greater than killing the prince.
Everyone stopped talking because it felt like Liu Mofeng had more to say.
"I asked Song Sheng, and he said that Jinyiwei has also secretly investigated our own people these days, including the Forbidden Army, the Military and Horse Division, and several Jinyiwei guardhouses in Beijing, but nothing was found." Liu Mofeng said this. More like a conclusion.
"Damn it, there are tens of thousands of people, right? How can they investigate so carefully?" Wei Yuntian felt that the investigation results were not credible.
"Brother Wei, you were born in the military and have been working in the Honor Guard Department. You don't understand the methods of our Jinyiwei Detective Factory. Their methods of investigating cases are very precise. Besides, who dares to be negligent in such a big matter? So? If they said they didn't find anything, then they really didn't find anyone suspicious," Liu Mofeng said.
"Then who do you think did it?" Wei Yuntian said.
"But although they checked very carefully, they also missed one place." Liu Mofeng said.
"Where?" Wei Yuntian gritted his teeth, hating the fact that this boy spoke in a harsh tone.
"That's it." Liu Mofeng hesitated for a while before saying.
"Ah? Damn it, you said it was our Xichang brothers who did it?" Wei Yuntian was shocked, "How is this possible!"
"Mo Feng is not talking about the West Factory, but the palace." Zhuge Xiaosheng said with a smile.
"Holy shit!" Wei Yuntian was still in a state of surprise, "In the palace? Imperial guards, imperial guards, or imperial guards?"
"It's hard to say..." Liu Mofeng's main reason is that there is no conclusive evidence yet.
"Say!" Wei Yuntian punched him smoothly.
"It can only be said that Jinyiwei is the most suspicious." Liu Mofeng staggered after being beaten, grinning in pain.
Seeing Wei Yuntian staring, he quickly continued: "I checked the palms of those corpses, and they all have thick calluses at the tiger's mouth. The position of the calluses fits perfectly with the handle of the Xiuchun knife..."
As we all know, the Xiuchundao is the most important standard weapon of Jinyiwei.
