Chen Yutian and others, led by Zhou Lin, first arrived at the scene of the explosion.
This is a guest room on the second floor of the inn, and the explosives that caused the explosion were placed here.
Chen Yutian looked down at the room in front of him, which had almost an entire wall blown off, and frowned slightly.
Looking at the situation at the scene, it is clear that the explosive was indeed placed in this room. However, according to the murderer's usual method, where was the ignition point of the explosive? Where did the murderer shoot the igniting rocket?
He looked up at the roof of the room. Half of the roof was blown open, and he could vaguely see the furnishings in the room upstairs.
He looked at the room upstairs and asked a rich middle-aged man wearing a bandage, "Shopkeeper, who rents the room above?"
The rich middle-aged man, who was the innkeeper, happened to pass by the room on the third floor when the explosion occurred, so he was affected by the aftermath of the explosion and suffered some minor injuries.
Hearing Chen Yutian's question, the shopkeeper looked up and replied: "To tell you my Lord, this room was rented out not long ago today. I remember that the people who rented this room seemed to be two officials escorting prisoners."
"What? An official?"
After hearing his answer, Chen Yutian's expression immediately changed. On the side, everyone in Zhou Lin was also slightly surprised.
"Do you remember what those two officials looked like?" Chen Yutian asked.
The shopkeeper replied: "Sir, you are joking. There are at least hundreds of guests coming in and out of this inn every day. With so many people, how can I remember their faces? However, the officer escorting the prisoner is in the inn. It's not very common, so I can be sure that the two of them should be the only ones in this inn."
Hearing this, Chen Yutian was silent.
On the contrary, Zhou Lin looked shocked and said: "So, the room above this is Quanxing's room? They actually live above the room where the explosion occurred?"
Everyone nodded.
Chen Yutian also frowned slightly.
Quan Xing lives above the explosion room, which is really unexpected.
Since he lives above the exploded room, we cannot rule out the possibility that the explosion was intended to kill him.
However, it is only possible.
After all, such things as coincidences still exist.
Putting aside this matter, Chen Yutian looked at the bed not far away.
According to Zhou Lin, the blood number left at the scene, representing the countdown, was written under the bed.
Chen Yutian gently flicked his sleeves, and the bed suddenly turned over.
Surrounded by them, the shopkeeper, Zhou Lin, Xing Enming and others were immediately startled.
Under the bed, a huge number in blood was clearly written: Three!
Chen Yutian carefully observed the blood figures in front of him.
The handwriting is almost the same as that found in the three previous scenes, and the force of starting and closing the pen is almost equal. It is certain that these words should be written by the same person.
In other words, it was the bomb maniac who blew up this place.
"Captain Zhou, where did you find this burnt arrow?" He turned around and asked.
"Sir, are you talking about that rocket? It was found on the wall that was blown up, and the fuse of the explosive was also there."
Zhou Lin pointed to the big hole in the wall in front of him.
There, what was supposed to be the window of the room was blown out at this moment.
"The lead is outside the window?"
Chen Yutian frowned slightly.
"Yes." Zhou Lin nodded.
Chen Yutian nodded, walked to the big hole, and took a look outside.
Opposite, there is also an inn.
Chen Yutian looked at the private room window on the second floor of the inn opposite and smiled slightly.
Immediately, he asked the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, has anyone rented this room today?"
The shopkeeper thought for a while and replied: "Sir, no one has rented this room today, but yesterday afternoon, there was one here? The guest who stayed for two days checked out."
Hearing this, Chen Yutian's expression changed.
"Oh? What's that guest's name? What does he look like?" Zhou Lin asked.
The shopkeeper took out a ledger from his pocket and flipped through it.
"My lord, the name registered here is Wang Gui. As for what he looks like, please forgive me. I really can't remember clearly."
Hearing the name from the shopkeeper's mouth, Chen Yutian's expression suddenly changed.
Zhou Lin's eyes flashed at the same time.
"Wang Gui? Isn't this name the name of the cook at Datong Bank?"
"Yes. It seems that he is indeed the murderer."
Chen Yutian smiled.
"But we know nothing about this person. Even if we know he is the murderer, we can't catch him!"
Zhou Lin sighed.
"Maybe! But now, can you do one thing for me?"
Chen Yutian looked at the inn opposite and suddenly smiled.
"Oh? What's the matter?" Zhou Lin looked at him.
Chen Yutian smiled slightly, leaned close to his ear, and said a few words.
After hearing this, Zhou Lin laughed and said, "Is that just that? I'll do it right away."
After saying that, he went directly downstairs and took a few government officials to the inn opposite.
Seeing this, Xuan Xi asked curiously: "What did you ask him to do?"
Chen Yutian grinned and said two words.
"secret!"
…
On Gyeonggi Road, a horse gallops.
The man on the horse, dressed in fluttering red clothes, was extremely conspicuous on this ancient road filled with dust.
The war horse under him ran forward like lightning.
Huo Yuanji was very anxious.
Ever since he met the mysterious man at Longteng Inn, he has been struggling with it.
Because he really didn't know whether he should continue to find Feng Wang Jiangu and ask him to inform Xie Ying's whereabouts.
We should still follow the mysterious man's words and bring his words to Chen Yutian intact.
He was very confused.
Very distressed too.
But after struggling for a day, he decided to return to Beijing and tell Chen Yutian what the mysterious man said.
So, he set off from Longteng Inn that day, and after a long journey, he finally reached Gyeonggi Road.
But, at this moment...he suddenly stopped.
His eyes were fixed on a bush on the side of the road, and after a moment, he frowned slightly.
What did he see?
He saw... among the grass, there were two naked male corpses.
…
Zhou Lin came back from the opposite side soon.
"My lord, I have inquired clearly." As soon as he entered the room, he said to Chen Yutian.
"Oh? Tell me." Chen Yutian said.
"Your guess is correct. According to the memories of the innkeeper and the waiter, before the explosion, a person did rent the private room. During his rental period, no one was allowed to enter without permission, even the waiter who served tea and water. Will not work."
Zhou Lin said.
Chen Yutian frowned slightly, "Oh? Such weird behavior? The shopkeeper and the waiter must be deeply impressed by this person, right?"
"Yes." Zhou Lin nodded.
"Then do they remember what that person looks like?"
Chen Yutian asked again.
Zhou Lin shook his head and said, "No. They thought about it for a long time, but they didn't even remember what the guest looked like."
Hearing this, Chen Yutian's expression changed.
Is this the case again?
