Chen Yutian glanced at Tang Fengling, then at the headless corpse on the ground, and asked, "Is it true?"
"Of course." Tang Fengling nodded with certainty and said, "I felt familiar with this figure when I saw it before. When I just heard this brother say that the guest who came to spend the night had a scar on his face, I thought Get up. One of the two people I saw yesterday also has a scar on his face."
"Oh?" Chen Yutian frowned slightly and turned to look at Bai Fan.
Bai Fan looked at the corpse on the ground, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then said, "I didn't pay attention to those two people before, so I don't know very well."
Wu Dongtian also shook his head.
Chen Yutian asked Tang Fengling again with certainty: "Are you sure one of the two has a scar on his face?"
Tang Fengling nodded with great certainty and said, "I'm absolutely sure!"
"Then according to what you said...this person is one of the two people you met at the gate of the Wu family manor yesterday?" Chen Yutian glanced at Gongsun.
Gongsun frowned slightly at this moment, not knowing what he was thinking.
Tang Fengling nodded heavily for the third time.
Seeing that she was so sure, Chen Yutian's expression condensed slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked around.
This is a veritable ruined temple. Not only are the doors and windows dilapidated, but even the wooden walls of the temple are showing signs of collapse. The statue of the god in the temple is even more dilapidated. Even one right hand has been broken and fell to the ground. Extremely miserable.
Looking at all this, Chen Yutian had countless thoughts in his heart.
Judging from the clothes worn by the deceased, this person was definitely not a poor person. In any case, he did not look like someone who needed to spend the night in this ruined temple.
So what was his purpose in going to this ruined temple late at night?
"Well...this is..."
Chen Yutian's eyes wandered around the ruined temple, and his eyes were suddenly attracted by something on the ground.
"Why is this thing here? Could it be..."
He stared at the object in his hand, his eyes flashing slightly.
In his hand, there was a silver needle that glowed lightly in the sun.
Ordinary silver needles will not reflect such luster even if they are placed under the sun.
The reason why this silver needle has such a shiny reflection is because there are other things on it.
That is extremely poisonous!
Yes, this is a poisonous needle fed with poison!
Chen Yutian had already noticed this when he saw this object.
This kind of poisonous needle is as light as a cow's hair and is extremely difficult to detect with the naked eye. Therefore, many people in the world use it as a hidden weapon to sneak attacks on others.
"Gongsun, are there any signs of poisoning in the body of the deceased?"
Chen Yutian took the poisonous needles, came to Gongsun, and asked quickly.
Hearing this, Gongsun's expression moved slightly, he shook his head slightly, and said: "No, there is nothing wrong with the deceased. The cause of his death was the same as before. He was hit by the so-called Heart-Destroying Sword Qi, and his internal organs were directly destroyed. And die."
A trace of doubt appeared in Chen Yutian's eyes, and he said: "So, there are no signs of poisoning on the deceased?"
"Exactly."
"Then what's going on with this thing?" He showed Gongsun the poisonous needle in his hand.
Gongsun glanced at the poisonous needle and pondered for a moment, then reached out and groped around the body for a moment, and pulled out a tightly wrapped cloth bag from the deceased's belt.
This cloth bag was similar to the needle bag Gongsun used to place silver needles when he practiced medicine. Gongsun frowned slightly and opened the cloth bag.
Several cold gleams suddenly appeared in his eyes.
Chen Yutian and everyone behind him were shocked!
"This is……"
In the cloth bag, there were dozens of silver needles that were exactly the same as those in Chen Yutian's hand. Each one was shining with a transparent luster, and they were obviously quenched with poison.
"Obviously, this poisonous needle does not belong to the murderer, but belongs to the deceased!"
Gongsun looked at the poisonous needle and spoke calmly.
Chen Yutian's eyes became slightly serious.
Gongsun squatted down again and groped around the headless corpse.
Just now when he was searching the silver needle cloth bag, he found that there were still a few relics on the deceased's body. Maybe there were clues in them.
Chen Yutian, Xing Enming, everyone in Jiulong Mansion and the widow of Jingji Mansion all understood what he meant, and they all looked at him solemnly.
After a while, Gongsun stopped groping.
He found three more relics from the corpse.
It was a jade pendant, a vial and an official guide.
Looking at the official guide, everyone's eyes became extremely bright in an instant!
Unexpectedly, these things were still retained on the body of the deceased!
Not to mention anything else, with this official guide, you should at least know the identity of the deceased.
Chen Yutian picked up the Guan Ping Road Guide and looked at it, his expression became more serious.
"This person's name is Ling Zhanwu, and he is from Youzhou."
These two pieces of information were clearly written on Guan Ping's guide.
After Xing Enming finished reading, he sighed slightly. Since the unsolved case, except for Wu Chengtian who died at home, this is the first time he knows the identity of the deceased...
That's great……
The rest of the people were also happy about this, but Chen Yutian and Xue Tianhan frowned.
Ling Miaoyin glanced at the two of them in confusion and asked Xue Tianhan, "Why do you look unhappy?"
Xue Tianhan frowned slightly, looked at the headless corpse on the ground, shook his head and replied: "The murderer's behavior is so abnormal, how can I be happy?"
"Abnormal?" Ling Miaoyin became even more confused.
Xue Tianhan sighed slightly and asked: "Do you still remember, in our previous analysis, why the murderer wanted to cut off the head of the deceased and take it away?"
Ling Miaoyin nodded and said: "Of course I remember. Brother Chen guessed that the murderer probably didn't want us to know the identity of the deceased, so he took the head of the deceased away."
"Not bad!" Xue Tianhan nodded slightly.
"But he made two abnormal actions in the past two days, which completely overturned our inference."
"Two unusual actions?"
Ling Miaoyin was stunned for a moment, then gently raised her gaze to look at Xue Tianhan, who saw a slight frown on her brows, but seemed to have a different kind of beauty.
"Could you be talking about the head from yesterday?"
For a moment, Ling Miaoyin suddenly paused and asked.
"Yes. Since the murderer didn't want us to know the identity of the deceased so he cut off the head and took it away, why did he ask the chief escort and the others to deliver the head to us? Isn't this contradictory?" Xue Tianhan nodded slightly and spoke calmly as always.
Ling Miaoyin nodded and said: "What you said makes sense...but why did you say that the murderer sent the head to us on purpose? He obviously wanted the people from the escort agency to send it to the lotus pond..."
Xue Tianhan smiled sarcastically, looked at Ling Miaoyin, and said: "In this way, there is no difference at all. Judging from the murderer's caution in committing crimes before, it is absolutely impossible for him to make such a low-level mistake. The only possibility is that he Everything you do is intentional.”
"you mean……"
Xue Tianhan smiled slightly and said: "All of this is a trap, a trap deliberately set up to give us the head. To put it simply, the murderer deliberately aroused the suspicion of the escort agency. His purpose was from the very beginning. , is to deliver the head into our hands!"
…
…
Listening to Xue Tianhan's analysis, Chen Yutian nodded and smiled.
His views, in some respects, coincide with Xue Tianhan's.
Bai Fan frowned slightly and thought about it for a long time, with a look of sudden realization in his eyes. Looking at Xue Tianhan's eyes, he couldn't help but feel a touch of admiration...
Huo Yuanji smiled helplessly at Lin Feifei.
As said before in Prince Xian's Mansion, in terms of martial arts, they may be equally smart, but in this aspect, Xue Tianhan is enough to throw him out of the sky.
"The second abnormal behavior you mentioned is that this official position led to you, right?" Ling Miaoyin asked.
Xue Tianhan smiled slightly and said: "That's right! As mentioned before, since the murderer doesn't want us to know the identity of the murderer, why did he leave this official guide? In this way, even if he took away the head of the deceased, It’s no use anymore.”
Ling Miaoyin nodded gently.
"But have you ever thought that maybe the murderer took away the head of the deceased not to hide the identity of the deceased?"
Hearing this, Xue Tianhan was stunned, and Chen Yutian also turned to look over.
"What did you say?" Bai Fan looked at her in surprise and asked eagerly.
Ling Miaoyin was startled, looked at him, and repeated her words suspiciously: "I said... maybe the murderer took away the head of the deceased not to conceal his identity?"
"Isn't it to conceal the identity of the deceased?!"
Xue Tianhan and Chen Yutian's eyes flashed slightly.
"Yes, why didn't we think of that? Perhaps as you said, the murderer took away the deceased's head not to conceal his identity. In this case, the murderer would do these two abnormal behaviors. Strange."
Bai Fan's eyes flashed suddenly and he said happily.
Ling Miaoyin glanced at him in slight surprise.
Chen Yutian and Xue Tianhan looked at each other.
Indeed, what Ling Miaoyin said is not impossible. Before the murderer's motive and purpose are determined, any situation is possible.
And handling a case means taking all these possibilities into consideration.
"I almost made the same mistake at Snow Mountain Villa again..." Chen Yutian smiled bitterly.
Gongsun also nodded, then knelt down and picked up the vial found from the corpse.
After opening it and smelling it, he felt an extremely pungent smell coming straight at him. Gongsun frowned slightly and looked at the corpse.
What was in that bottle was a highly poisonous medicine.
He carries a poisonous needle on his body and hides poison in his arms. What is this person's identity and why is he covered in poisonous substances?
Gongsun pondered.
Xing Enming watched everyone discussing the case at the scene. He couldn't help, so he had to ask Zhou Lin to settle the beggars first.
At this time, as the news spread, many people gradually gathered outside the door to watch the excitement.
These people are also the focus of resettlement.
And among the crowd watching the fun, there was a figure, looking at the headless corpse in the ruined temple, clenching his fists tightly.
In his eyes, there was strong anger and sadness intertwined.
And it was obvious that he had been trying to suppress the outburst of these two emotions.
But the effect is obviously not significant.
His eyes gradually turned red, but he didn't know whether it was caused by anger or grief.
This person was the same person who hurried past the government office to post the notice early in the morning and was greatly surprised by it.
In addition, he was... another person that Tang Fengling and the others met at the gate of the Wu family manor!
…
…
Chen Yutian glanced over.
Originally, he was scanning around the scene, but suddenly, he sensed an inexplicable murderous intention coming from outside the ruined temple.
Surprised, he looked over subconsciously.
Then, he saw a pair of eyes intertwined with anger, murderous intent, and grief!
What kind of look is this?
Chen Yutian was slightly startled, and his eyes slowly zoomed further away.
A face suddenly came into view.
This was a featureless face. If his eyes weren't so special, Chen Yutian would never have noticed him.
Because this face is too ordinary.
The face of a man in his forties or fifties is covered with wrinkles, and there is even a hint of weather-beaten color on this face.
If he saw it elsewhere, Chen Yutian would definitely think that this was just an ordinary old man next door.
But he would never think so at this moment.
Because the faint but powerful murderous aura emanating from the opponent's body showed that his martial arts skills were definitely not low.
Moreover, his eyes were obviously staring at the headless corpse on the ground!
Therefore, no matter how you look at it, this person is definitely not an ordinary person. At least, he and the deceased named "Ling Zhanwu" should have known each other.
At this moment, the other party's eyes suddenly moved, and he obviously noticed that Chen Yutian was looking at him.
At the same time, Tang Fengling in the temple also saw him!
The first time she saw him, Tang Fengling's eyes shrank slightly. She recognized this person.
And the moment Tang Fengling looked over, the people outside the temple had a glimmer of light in their eyes, and then turned around and left without looking inside.
Moreover, as if he could avoid the gazes of the two men, his head was lowered very low.
"He is the other person I met at the Wu Manor!" Seeing that the other person wanted to run away, Tang Fengling quickly put her voice into a line and sent a message to Chen Yutian.
Chen Yutian nodded slightly, then glanced at Tang Fengling.
Tang Fengling nodded as if understanding, and then her body flashed, and her whole body suddenly turned into an afterimage, leaving the ruined temple with the sound of breaking wind.
On the side, Xue Tianhan's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked at each other again with Chen Yutian.
Obviously, he also understood Chen Yutian's plan.
However, neither he nor Chen Yutian, nor anyone else present at the moment, would have expected how shocking the news brought back by Tang Fengling's tracking this time would be!
They would never have imagined that the entire case would take a completely unpredictable direction because of this news!
