Nanzhao envoy Wang Chengdao narrowed his eyes and looked at Shen Lian with a smile.
When Shen Lian heard this, his expression remained unchanged.
He glanced at Anthony and suddenly raised his lips: "Is this considered suspicious?"
Anthony: “….…”
Despised!
Shen Lian pointed to the dragging marks on the ground and said, "This kind of mark can be caused by just touching anything with a little blood, so it's nothing."
"The murderer deliberately created such a scene to misunderstand us. There is nothing surprising about this."
"As for the scars on the body of the deceased... who can say..."
Shen Lian's eyes flashed: "It was caused before death."
"What!?"
Everyone was stunned.
Qin Ziyi, the young minister of Dali Temple, said at the right time: "Isn't it before death? Is it after death?"
Shen Lian laughed and then glanced at Qin Ziyi.
Sometimes, solving a case requires such praise. Without praise, it would be embarrassing to ask and answer questions by yourself.
He nodded slightly, and then said: "Wuzaku, tell me."
The man who was suddenly called out hurriedly stood up and said: "Not long after a person dies, the muscle vitality is still there. If there is a collision at this time, it will still leave traces, and we are currently unable to tell whether the traces are before death or after death. Left behind."
Everyone suddenly understood.
Anthony clenched his fists subconsciously.
Shen Lian continued: "The deceased had no injuries before, but when he was found later, there were injuries. It was obvious that they were caused during the journey."
"But did the guards outside hear the violent collision? So... there is only one explanation, that is, after the deceased died, the murderer deliberately hit him with something several times. The deceased was already dead at that time, no It will make a cry, and the collision sound is much quieter than the sound of knocking over tables and chairs, so the guards outside can't hear it."
"I think everyone has a brain and can figure this out."
The envoys thought for a moment, and then they all couldn't help but nod.
Indeed, Shen Lian's explanation explained all the doubts clearly.
Why are there scars on the deceased's body?
And why the guards outside didn't hear any sounds of fighting.
So that’s it….
It turns out that this is really a fight scene deliberately faked by the murderer!
Shen Lian glanced at Anthony and saw that Anthony's face was livid and seemed to be unhappy. He said, "Anthony, it seems you are still not convinced!"
Anthony stiffened his neck and said: "This is all your speculation. You have no actual evidence."
"No actual evidence?"
Shen Lian laughed, and his whole person was enveloped in strong self-confidence.
He said: "Since you want evidence, I will give you evidence."
The sunlight penetrated through the window and fell on Qin Wenyuan.
The fluttering light seemed to have put a golden cloak on Shen Lian, making it look like a god coming to the world.
Shen Lian's eyes were clear and bright, and his whole body was filled with strong self-confidence. He glanced at Anthony, the envoy of the Food Kingdom with an ugly face, with a faint smile, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
It seemed to be sarcastic, but also seemed to be mocking Anthony for not overestimating his abilities.
While handling a case, this was the first time that Shen Lian encountered someone who constantly provoked him.
He took a few steps forward and walked to Qihe La's body.
Then he pointed at Qihe La's clothes and said, "Please take a closer look."
After everyone heard this, they subconsciously took a few steps forward and looked at Qihe La's body.
But they looked left, right, up and down, but they didn't see anything unusual.
Shen Lian said: "Did you notice any abnormalities?"
Everyone shook their heads subconsciously.
They had no idea what Shen Lian asked them to see, let alone anything abnormal.
"My lord, please stop being so secretive. Your lord has a sharp gaze and can find clues at a glance. How can we compare with you? So lord, you should just tell me to wait."
Abao spoke at the right time.
But even though he was speaking to Shen Lian, his eyes were looking arrogantly at the person who just whispered that he didn't believe Shen Lian.
Therefore, it is self-evident to whom he addressed his words and for what purpose.
The envoys who didn't believe Shen Lian just now looked a little bad when they saw Ah Bao looking at them like this.
But recalling Shen Lian's well-founded words just now, they didn't have any chance to refute.
In the end, he could only lower his head in depression.
Seeing this, Abao looked back triumphantly.
The little moves between them were naturally hidden from Shen Lian's eyes, but now Shen Lian didn't care about it. As long as A Bao didn't suffer a loss, he wouldn't stop A Bao from doing anything.
Shen Lian's protection against shortcomings has always been unreasonable.
He returned his gaze to Qihela's body and said, "Look carefully at Qihela's clothes. Don't you think his clothes are too clean and too straight?"
"clothing?"
After hearing Shen Lian's prompt, everyone quickly looked at Qihe La's clothes.
Sure enough, Qi Hela's clothes were very clean as Shen Lian said, with not many wrinkles.
But, what does this have to do with the case?
They were all puzzled.
But a few envoys such as Anthony and Wang Chengdao seemed to understand something, which made their expressions change suddenly.
Shen Lian glanced at their faces, saw their expressions, and smiled lightly: "It seems that someone has understood."
Anthony frowned.
Wang Chengdao also suppressed his smile.
This detail was something that none of them noticed.
It was also at this time that they came to understand Shen Lian's terrifying investigative abilities.
Shen Lian smiled and said, "Everyone, think about it. If you were fighting with someone and knocking over tables and chairs, would your clothes still be so clean? If nothing else, they should at least have some stains on them. Dust, right?”
"But the deceased's clothes were as clean as washing. This is already very wrong."
"Of course, some people may say that they fought and were not pushed to the ground and rolled around, so they did not get dusty..."
Shen Lian glanced at Anthony, then looked at the other envoys, and said with a smile: "Although these words are obviously quibbles, such a possibility does exist, and I agree."
"It's possible that there's no dust on it, but there's no way to explain the wrinkles on the clothes, right?"
"It's possible that there's no dust on it, but there's no way to explain the wrinkles on the clothes, right?"
Shen Lian pointed at Qi Hela's wrinkle-free clothes and said, "No matter how fierce the fight was, even if he struggled a little, his clothes would definitely leave traces of wrinkles."
"But if you look at his clothes, there are no traces that should appear at all, so..."
Shen Lian glanced at everyone and said decisively: "If this is not irrefutable proof, what else is ironclad proof?"
All the envoys were shocked into silence by Shen Lian's words.
Since they can be sent as envoys, they naturally have some brains.
So whether Shen Lian's words made sense or not, they could understand immediately.
And it was precisely because of this that they were so shocked at this moment.
This kind of detail, whether there were wrinkles on a piece of clothing... No one really paid attention to it, but Shen Lian paid attention to it, and it became the ironclad evidence to judge that the murderer had forged the scene.
At this moment, they finally had a clear understanding of Shen Lian's abilities and the terrifying strength of the legendary Shen Lian.
Rumors are not exaggerated!
Shen Lian, the smart man from Prince Chu's Mansion, is seriously so terrifying!
When Shen Lian saw the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, there was no sense of pride. This really didn't mean anything to him.
Compared to the cases he had solved, what did such a small detail count?
But if he didn't explain clearly, these envoys might hold on to him, so he wasted his breath.
Otherwise, he would not say this at all to familiar people like Qin Ziyi. After all, their trust in him meant that he did not have to explain such a small issue.
He looked at Anthony, saw that Anthony's face was red, and said with a smile: "Anthony, do you agree with what I said? Do you agree that this scene was faked by the murderer? The deceased did not go through any struggle before he died. Speculation?"
"I……."
Anthony was looked at by Shen Lian like this, and he felt a fire rising in his heart.
But he had no way to refute, because Shen Lian's evidence was as solid as iron, with no flaws at all.
They were equally confused.
But Shen Lian smiled faintly: "Isn't this simple? Think about the conclusion you just made when the murderer forged the scene. That was the murderer's intention."
"Conclusion? What conclusion?" Qin Ziyi was startled.
Nanzhao envoy Wang Chengdao flashed his eyes and said proactively: "The deceased was in a weak position during the fight, and the murderer's martial arts was stronger than the deceased!"
"What?"
Everyone was stunned.
Wang Chengdao looked at Shen Lian and said, "Am I right?"
Shen Lian smiled and nodded slightly: "Master Wang is indeed smart and worthy of being an envoy of Nanzhao."
These words have profound meaning.
Wang Chengdao's eyes flickered.
Shen Lian continued: "What Mr. Wang said is what I want to say."
"If we follow Anthony's inference just now, the scene will give us the conclusion that the deceased fought with the murderer before dying, but unfortunately, the deceased was not the murderer's opponent and was eventually killed by the murderer."
"So, the murderer's martial arts skills are higher than those of the deceased, and everyone knows how strong the deceased's martial arts are. Therefore, if his martial arts skills are higher than those of the deceased, a large number of people will escape the scope of suspicion."
"And this... is the murderer's purpose!"
Shen Lian looked at everyone with bright eyes, and said with a huge sense of oppression: "In other words, the real murderer's martial arts skills are definitely not as good as Qihe La's, or... maybe he doesn't know martial arts at all!"
With a flash, Shen Lian said something that made all the envoys widen their eyes.
They never expected that a crime scene would have so many twists and turns.
But thinking about it carefully, they couldn't help but agree with Shen Lian's words.
Indeed, if we think about it based on the fake scene, there will indeed be such a result.
So, is this the murderer's purpose?
Then to speculate in the opposite direction is the scope of the murderer.
Thinking of this, they all subconsciously looked at the others and subconsciously separated some distance from the others.
Kung Fu is not as good as Qi He La, and there are many people who don't even know Kung Fu...
It can be said that only a few of these envoys can be eliminated, and the rest are all suspects?
My heart, which had dropped, lifted up again.
Someone couldn't help but said to Shen Lian: "Commander Shen, Commander Shen, who is the murderer? Stop being so secretive and tell me quickly."
"Yeah, this is so scary for us!"
Everyone couldn't help but speak.
Shen Lian smiled softly, with a flash of light deep in his eyes, and said, "Don't be impatient, just let me continue my reasoning. Soon... the real murderer will surface little by little."
He had a meaningful look on his face, looking at the ignorant envoys, and sighed softly in his heart.
When the strongest dragon-slaying boy turns into an evil dragon, there will no longer be a dragon-slaying boy in this world.
Because they will never be able to slay the evil dragon that the strongest boy turned into.
Just like myself, how strong is my ability to solve crimes.
When committing a crime, that's how strong he is.
Just them, still want to find themselves?
Hey, what a bunch of idiots!
Everyone looked at Shen Lian at this time, their expressions were full of trust.
Shen Lian had completely gained everyone's trust with his first-hand deduction.
As a result, whatever Shen Lian says now, in their subjective impression, they will subconsciously believe it.
This is the power of fame!
At the beginning, everyone was doubtful about the reputation of Datang Qingtian, which made them all doubt Shen Lian's inference. Even Anthony was not only doubtful, but also wanted to overturn Shen Lian's inference.
But now, the situation is completely different.
Shen Lian used his strength to slap Anthony's face hard, and with his perfect inference, no one had any doubts about the rumored "most intelligent man in Prince Chu's Palace".
Therefore, at this time, even if they are in different camps from Shen Lian, they still have no doubts about Shen Lian just like Abao and others when it comes to solving the case.
Even if Shen Lian now pointed at a person's nose and said he was the murderer without any evidence, few people would doubt Qin Wenyuan.
And this... is Shen Lian's real purpose!
In fact, even if Anthony doesn't take the initiative to find trouble, Shen Lian will find a way to find someone who can oppose him.
He needs to establish his authority!
Shen Lian's plan has already begun.
If he wants to perfectly control those chess pieces, he must use some means to determine his unique status.
Only in this way can he unknowingly use the trust of those envoys in him to guide them to do what he wants them to do.
Therefore, Anthony is also unlucky.
Before Shen Lian could decide who to turn against, he jumped out on his own initiative. All he could say was that he deserved it.
Wang Chengdao, the envoy of Nanzhao, and Aguda, the eldest prince of Tiele, frowned slightly at this time. Even though they didn't know Shen Lian's plan, the series of things about Anthony being beaten by Shen Lian also made them feel the scene. The atmosphere has changed.
