"Um."
Di Ying nodded.
"When I made such a guess, I knew that Mr. Park and his wife were actually quite strict in disciplining Park Chan.
It's a pity that Pu Zan didn't listen and didn't change it. Later, the fatal injury that caused Park Chan's death was discovered.
The scythe was crisp, powerful, and accurately positioned.
But only for that moment.
We knew before the autopsy that the murderer’s purpose was not a murder for love or a murder for money, but only a vendetta.
But here comes the strange point: Why did a person who had a grudge against him only chop him once? Still trying to kill with one blow? Just want the other party to die quickly?
If such a situation occurs, it means that the murderer has feelings for Park Chan. What kind of emotion would it be if there was love and hate?
But Pu Zan did not get married.
We have heard of his misdeeds, but we have never heard of him molesting or harming any woman.
There is no mention of his evil deeds in this area in the case files.
So I focused on his family.
When we encounter a crime, we will immediately suspect the relatives and friends of the deceased.
Because they have more motivation and conditions to commit crimes than strangers.
Through the autopsy, I also learned that there was only one male murderer who killed Park Chan. Aged between 45 and 48 years old.
Even if I haven't calculated the height and weight of the murderer, among the Park family, only Old Man Park matches this age. "
"Oh oh oh."
Liu Liu nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
With starry eyes, he looked at his adults and expressed his understanding and summary of what the adults said.
"First, Old Man Park initially objected to our abnormality in opening the grave; second, the murderer's method and characteristics allowed you to basically judge that Old Man Park was the real murderer.
If he was the only murderer, and both he and Mrs. Park pointed at the east wing, Mr. Park must be lying. "
"Yes, you are smart."
Di Ying praised Liu Liu approvingly.
Then he said: "Knowing that Mr. Pu is lying, I want to know why he is lying.
He obviously didn't feel too sad about his brother's death. When it came to opening the grave, he had no objection. Based on these two points, I rule out that he is the real murderer.
But why did he lie?
Are you trying to stop us from continuing the investigation? Are you afraid that we will find out that Tu Liang is not the real murderer? Or do you want to help hide the real murderer?
I have to figure it out.
So, I followed him into the east wing.
In front of the bed in the east wing room, there was a pool of dark brown things that looked like blood stains.
But the time left was obviously before Park Chan died.
And that amount is not an amount that can cause death.
I've smelled a handful of dirt.
That's the smell of lamp oil. Already very light. The time it stayed on the ground was at least six days ago. But Brother Park thought I wouldn't notice this. When he answered my question at that time, maybe he had an idea in his mind and wanted me to think that it was blood stains.
Let’s talk about the bed.
When I asked Mr. Pu where his brother's head was when he died, he was stunned for a moment before pointing me in the direction.
Obviously the pillow was right by the window, but he pointed at it anyway. Instead of wondering why I asked that.
His daze was not strange, but more like he was thinking.
After thinking about it, I pointed it out.
Why should he think about such a question that he didn't even need to think about?
It's simple: his brother didn't die on this bed.
After that, I wandered around the yard and saw from the open window of the west wing that the beds inside were the same size and height as those in the east wing.
It’s just that the placement of the pillows is exactly the opposite.
This confirmed my correct judgment about Mr. Park and his wife, and that it was the west wing.
When I asked about Sickle, Pu did not lie or feel nervous, which ruled out the possibility that he was the real culprit.
And he had no idea who the real murderer was.
Otherwise: he wouldn't have been so clear about the scythe. "
When Di Ying said this, he asked Liu Liudao: "Since it is almost certain that the real murderer is Old Man Pu, and coupled with what Pu Xiaodi said about the sickle, we can be 100% sure. Do you know why?"
"Know."
Liu Liu nodded and replied: "Aunt Pu can stand in the village for an hour scolding her for a sickle, which shows that she is very precious to the things at home.
It is impossible for outsiders to take it easily. The only ones who can get it are the Park family.
But, sir, why couldn't it be Pu Zan who climbed over the wall and picked up the sickle to kill him? This should be possible, right? "
Di Ying nodded.
"It is possible. But have you noticed: Pu Xiaodi's sickle is in the pigweed basket, and I dug through it several times before I found it.
If the murderer is an outsider who climbs over the wall with the purpose of killing someone, he will definitely bring his own murder weapon. Even if you want to frame someone up, you can't go through the pig grass basket.
Pu Xiaodi said without thinking that it was in the pig grass and rice basket, which meant that his sickle must not have been randomly placed in other places. This is a habit.
This eliminates the possibility of a murderer and a random person.
According to common sense, if you want to frame someone's fault, you would go straight to the kitchen immediately, right? It's instinctive.
There is also a murderer's psychological problem here.
If you were a murderer and you wanted to sneak into someone's home to kill someone, the weapon you would choose would definitely not be a sickle.
Because you're worried that if you can't kill someone at once, you'll get into trouble, right?
You will look for something that is handy, something that can kill someone in one fell swoop, or chop the opponent into silence.
There's no way it's a sickle.
And Old Man Park's sickle is on the fence of the pig pen.
It is closer to the west wing than the pigweed basket, and is easier to find and handle.
But it was not lost, and there was no blood on it.
That leaves only Aunt Park’s sickle. It just happened to be lost. Lost it two days before Park Chan's death.
It shows that the murderer was deliberate and carried out the murder in a planned and step-by-step manner. This further rules out the possibility of finding the murder weapon.
According to the height of the bed, the height of the deceased lying on it, the height and angle to the ground, and the strength of the murderer covering his mouth and nose, etc.
I calculated the height and weight of the murderer.
The target was still pointed at Old Man Park.
I asked myself two questions: Why does Mr. Park use a sickle? Still want to use Mrs. Park’s sickle?
According to the autopsy results: the sickle used as the murder weapon was frequently used.
But the scythes of Little Brother Pu and Old Man Pu are not that sharp.
The first is to explain: Mrs. Park uses the sickle every day and she treasures the sickle very much.
The second explanation: the murderer knew Aunt Park very well. I know that Mrs. Park will make a fuss as soon as she loses the sickle.
And when she makes a noise, everyone in the village can hear her. When the government came to investigate, everyone in the village could prove that Mrs. Park's sickle was lost.
Then no one will doubt Aunt Park and her family.
But Old Man Pu didn't expect that he would harm Tu Liang. "
"No wonder the Pu family's yard is tidied up, as if they are leaving home for a long trip."
Liu Liu finally intervened and spoke quickly.
Di Ying smiled and nodded.
"All signs indicate that Old Man Park is the real murderer, and he has recently planned to surrender in exchange for Tu Liang."
Liu Liu: "...So you don't want to find him guilty. But he also had the fault of an adopted son who didn't teach him well, and he also killed someone after all. He still killed someone intentionally and premeditatedly. Aren't you afraid of others accusing you of violating the law? ?”
