Chapter 122 Surprising conclusion
"Oh..." Xiao Chen was left speechless by Xiao Liu. As the saying goes, there is a priority in learning, and there is a specialization in skills. In handling this kind of case, Xiao Liu is an expert.
"Master Liu, do you mean that their fingerprints may be left on the cups and bowls in the restaurant?" Feng Zhiqiu said in his heart that this little white face is so awesome that even Master Xiao is jealous. Seeing Xiao Chen's embarrassment, he hurriedly spoke out to help him resolve it .
"Master Feng has a great opinion, I feel that this is a possibility." Liu Mofeng was very polite to Feng Zhiqiu.
"Come here! Get the rubbings, go up and extract all the fingerprints on all the cups and saucers." Feng Zhiqiu was secretly ashamed, because he hadn't thought of this section.
"If it's an assassin from outside, they will definitely come to visit before the assassination. Have you investigated and visited, Mr. Feng? Did anyone suspicious appear in the ten days before the incident?" Liu Mofeng asked.
"Oh, I checked. There are some foreigners, but they are all officials who came to Beijing to report on their work, gentry who visited friends, and merchants who did business. They have all been checked, and no suspects have been found." Feng Zhiqiu said.
This restaurant is located in a bustling street, with gorgeous decoration and exquisite food. It is considered a high-end place, and it also caters to high-consumer groups. Peddlers and ordinary people will not come here.
Liu Mofeng just nodded and didn't say anything.
The murder weapon was a wide-backed, thick-bladed knife. Although it was not a standard weapon, it was privately made, but it was obviously a copy of Jin Yiwei's Xiuchun knife. Its shape, weight, handle and other details were very similar.
The cowhide armor he wore was also imitated from Jinyiwei, and the workmanship was quite exquisite, but it was not crudely made.
According to the witnesses at the scene and the memories of the guards of the East Palace, this group of people seemed to be professional soldiers, because they were very organized when they moved, and they were calm and organized when they retreated.
It feels like a well-trained appearance, but it is by no means a mob.
After the on-site investigation, the group went to the Jinyiwei Detective Factory. Liu Mofeng personally inspected the corpse again. The corpse was decomposed seriously, and the corpse water had even begun to ooze out. Song Sheng and the others only extracted clear fingerprints of two people, and the others were all It's so blurry it's hard to tell.
But Liu Mofeng still held their hands and looked at them for a long time, then took off their clothes with his own hands, and carefully examined their bodies.
I don't know how he can hold back the spit out?
Xiao Chen and the others hid so far away that they couldn't stand the choking smell...
After finishing the investigation for a day, I went back to the West Factory for a meeting to study the case in the evening, and the situation was not very optimistic.
Jin Yiwei and Fengyang Mansion are not incompetent people, except for ignoring the fingerprints on the scene and not extracting the fingerprints of the dead, they basically did everything else they could do.
Although some of the extracted fingerprints are very clear, they are actually meaningless. You can't catch the murderer and compare them with whom?
Now there is no fingerprint library either...
A quarter of an hour after the incident, Jin Yiwei sealed all the gates of Fengyang City, only allowed to enter but not to exit!
They asked the guarding sergeant, and they didn't find any suspicious person within this class hour, let alone someone forcibly breaking through the barrier.
Two hours after the incident, the city-wide search and arrest began. Jinyiwei, Fengyang Mansion, Bingma Division, Imperial Army, and even the Jiumen Admiral's Mansion dispatched thousands of people to cooperate with the operation. The ground is three feet away!
Hundreds of people were arrested, but they were all ruled out of suspicion after interrogation.
In other words, they got nothing, so Bai Te is busy!
Fortunately, after the failure to assassinate the queen last time, almost all the brothers of the Profound Sky Association withdrew from Fengyang, otherwise, in this big manhunt, more than half of them would definitely be caught!
"Mo Feng, what do you think?" Seeing that Liu Mofeng remained silent, Xiao Chen couldn't help asking.
"It's hard to say." Liu Mofeng shook his head.
"Hehe, are you hard to say, or are you afraid to say it?" Zhuge Xiaosheng said suddenly.
"Since it's hard to say, I dare not say it." Liu Mofeng said.
"Are you two playing charades? Can you just speak up if you have something to say!" Xiao Chen said angrily.
"I don't think Tianxuan will do it." Liu Mofeng said such a nonsensical sentence first.
What do you need to say?
We already knew that!
"It wasn't done by people in the Jianghu either." Liu Mofeng continued to exclude.
Oh? How can this be seen? Everyone was puzzled.
"People in the Jianghu will definitely use their own familiar weapons. It is impossible to use knives. As far as I know, there is no sect that uses knives in the Jianghu that uses this kind of knives." Liu Mofeng said.
In addition, the heroes of the rivers and lakes fight with others with their hands, and they all fight on their own, and it is impossible to have any rules.
Since the incident in the palace last time, the security level of Fengyang City has been greatly strengthened, and the interrogation of outsiders, especially those who are suspected of being in the world, is extremely strict.
To sum up, it is unlikely that the heroes of the rivers and lakes did it.
"It doesn't look like the rebels did it." The rebels Liu Mofeng talked about were all kinds of anti-zhou teams.
The reason is that these guys never said a word from the beginning to the end, if those rebels did it, they would definitely make a big publicity.
Because for them, publicizing the assassination of the prince may be more meaningful than killing the prince.
Everyone stopped talking, because they felt that Liu Mofeng had something to say.
"I asked Song Sheng, and he said that Jinyiwei has also secretly investigated our own people these days, including the imperial army, soldiers and horses, and several guards of Jinyiwei in Beijing, and nothing was found." Liu Mofeng said. More like a conclusion.
"Damn it, there are tens of thousands of people here, right? Can they investigate so thoroughly!" Wei Yuntian felt that the results of this investigation were not credible.
"Brother Wei, you were born in the military and have been working in the Guard of Honor Division. You don't understand the methods of our Jinyiwei Detective Factory. Their methods of investigating cases are very delicate. Besides, who dares to be negligent when it comes to such important matters? So If they said they didn't find it, then they really didn't find anyone suspicious." Liu Mofeng said.
"Then who do you think did it?" Wei Yuntian said.
"But although they checked very carefully, they also missed one place." Liu Mofeng said.
"Where?" Wei Yuntian gritted his teeth, hating this kid for talking too much.
"It's here." Liu Mofeng hesitated for a while before saying.
"Ah? Damn you, you said that our Xichang brothers did it?" Wei Yuntian was taken aback, "How is this possible!"
"What Mo Feng was talking about was not Xichang, but the palace." Zhuge Xiaosheng said with a smile.
"Damn it!" Wei Yuntian was still surprised, "In the palace? The inner guards, the imperial army, or the Jinyiwei?"
"It's hard to say..." Liu Mofeng mainly because there is no solid evidence yet.
"Say!" Wei Yuntian punched him smoothly.
"I can only say that Jin Yiwei is the most suspect." Liu Mofeng staggered after being beaten, grinning his teeth in pain.
Seeing Wei Yuntian's stare, he hastened to say: "I checked the palms of those corpses, they have thick calluses on the tiger's mouth, and the position of the calluses fits perfectly with the handle of the Xiuchun knife..."
As we all know, the Xiuchun Knife is the most important standard weapon of Jinyiwei.
