Song Ying, who was looking at these people, was also extremely confused.

Looking at this situation, do these two people have new speculations?

How can it be!

I didn’t even see the crime scene!

"Master Song, hurry up and eat. After eating, we will go to the crime scene to take a look."

At this time, Di Renjie looked at him and smiled.

Song Ying looked at the plain-looking Master Di and felt inexplicably frightened for a moment.

"well."

After finishing the meal in a few mouthfuls, the four of them paid, received their room number plates, and walked into the depths of the guest house.

The scene of the crime was a small courtyard. There were four rooms in the courtyard, all of which could be occupied by people.

But now they are all sealed. After all, the crime scene cannot be destroyed until the case is closed.

Di Renjie glanced around, pointed to the yard on the left and asked.

"Did anyone live in the yard next to it at that time?"

"Sir, no one was living in the courtyards on the left and right at that time."

"We also went in to check, and there were no signs of human activity."

Song Ying replied.

"Let's go in and take a look."

After walking around again, Di Renjie suggested.

Naturally, Song Ying would not object, so she removed the seal with her own hands and the three of them walked inside.

"Creak..."

The courtyard door opened, and what came into view was the slightly bloody ground. The smell of blood dissipated with time.

But the mottled bloodstains on the ground freeze what happened here.

"Master Di, this is the main crime scene."

"When we came to investigate, the seven corpses had been neatly placed in the center of the yard and could be seen as soon as you entered the door."

Di Renjie nodded slightly, recalling every record in the file, including the characteristics of each corpse.

He glanced at Li Yuanfang, who understood and turned around to walk towards a side room.

According to the crime scene records, seven corpses were neatly arranged here, with their feet facing the courtyard door.

There was only one wound on each corpse, and that was on the neck. After the examination, it could be determined to be a sword wound.

A sword seals the throat.

Such martial arts is enough to be considered a master.

As for the identities of these seven people, they were a caravan traveling between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty.

This also explains why there are two Hu people, most of whom are translators or accompanying persons in the caravan.

"Master Song, do you think the murderer was motivated by money?"

Di Renjie sat on the stone bench, looked at him and asked.

"That's probably it. After all, all the valuable things they had on them are gone."

Song Ying answered uncertainly.

Li Ke recalled that the file given by the Ministry of Punishment had the prince's reason for closing the case.

The general meaning above is that this case is classified as robbery and murder, and the direction of subsequent investigations will be based on this.

However, in Li Ke's view, this is actually biased.

Seeing Song Ying's helpless look, Li Ke could understand him.

The prince had already deduced this, and it was impossible for Song Ying to come out and sing the opposite. He could count on his monthly salary to support his family.

"Then Mr. He, if the murderer is for money, with his martial arts skills of sealing the throat at the sight of blood, there is no need to kill anyone."

He Ying blinked, this was exactly what he thought.

"Master Di, is it possible that the other party went on a killing spree after being discovered?"

Li Ke gave his own inference, and He Ying on the side also nodded slightly.

"This is not impossible."

Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Di Renjie nodded and said.

But then, Di Renjie changed the topic again and gave another possibility.

"Although this is possible, it actually doesn't make sense. If there was a violent killing, why would all the corpses be placed neatly in the courtyard?"

"No matter how you look at this behavior, it looks like a provocation, rather than being caught stealing and then killing someone."

Li Ke and He Ying looked at each other.

This... seems to be true.

Logically speaking, this would indeed make more sense.

It's just Mr. Di, these are just inferences without evidence.

At this time, Li Yuanfang had searched all four rooms and returned here.

"Yuanfang, what's the gain?" Di Renjie looked at him and asked.

"Sir, I found a letter in the mezzanine under the bed in the room."

As Li Yuanfang said this, he took out a letter from his arms.

This shocked He Ying on the side.

There are actually clues in the room?

He remembered that they searched these rooms again and again, but couldn't find any letters at all.

"oh?"

"Bring it to me and see."

Di Renjie took the letter from Li Yuanfang, and when he opened it and checked it, the expression on his face changed.

Finally, he packed the letter.

"Master He, it seems we are lucky. With this letter as the key evidence, the case will be solved soon!"

Di Renjie said with a smile.

this……

real or fake?

He Ying looked confused, but at the same time he was extremely curious about the content of the letter.

What kind of evidence can directly solve the case?

However, I was curious in my heart, but I couldn't come over to check, so I had to compliment him.

"Master Di is worthy of being a staff member of His Highness King Wu. Such luck is naturally incomparable to ordinary people like us."

"Look at what you said. It's getting late today and the Third Law Division has gone off work. So let's stay here for one night and go to submit evidence tomorrow morning."

"What do you think, Lord He?"

Di Renjie put the letter away.

"I will obey your orders."

The four people immediately stopped staying and left the small courtyard.

He Ying took out the seal and sealed the entire crime scene again.



Chongrenfang North Street is brightly lit. If you stand at the window and look to the north, it seems as if the sky over there is on fire.

"Creak~"

There was a slight sound, followed by the window far away from the bed, which was opened a crack.

Then a slender bamboo tube stretched out, and white smoke slowly drifted out from the bamboo tube.

Within a few seconds, the smoke and dust dissipated, and the bamboo tube slowly retreated along the window edge.

After another minute, the window was pushed open completely.

A figure appeared in the room and immediately walked towards the bed.

The figure came to the bedside and stretched out his hand to touch under the pillow.

However, at this moment, a hand suddenly grabbed his wrist. The figure was obviously stunned for a moment, but he reacted quickly and immediately pulled back.

However, the hand that grabbed his wrist was as firm as an eagle's talon, and the man who was sleeping on the bed also jumped up.

"Still trying to run!"

Li Yuanfang snorted coldly, made a fist with his left hand and smashed it directly into the figure's face.

Seeing this, the figure raised his right arm to block.

"boom!"

The punch was powerful and heavy, and the figure obviously groaned, and the eyes showed horror.

Li Yuanfang succeeded with one blow and was about to pursue the victory when he suddenly heard an explosion and white smoke rushed up from his feet, which made his eyes hurt.

Caught off guard, Li Yuan felt a pain in his chest and was kicked hard, taking several steps back.
