Chapter 487: Murder twists and turns (3000 words)
Ye Shengtian dared to bring it up. Of course, he had his own reasons. He saw Ye Shengtian said: "The clothes are bright and clean, and it does not explain the problem, because the clothes may be changed after the death of the deceased. It is not difficult to do this."
Meng Han said: "I understand what Ye Gongzi means, but this is not the scene of the fight. The murderer will definitely fight with the dead, so he will always have some injuries."
Ye Shengtian said: "Of course."
Ye Shengtian continued: "You put the dead down first and then talk about it."
The fourth elder has been dead for a long time, and it is very immoral to hang others at this time. There are so many people here, but no one has noticed this. Maybe they have been paying attention to the murderer and forget this "little thing".
"Let's put the people down soon." Ye Mulin greeted the two guards to put down the fourth elder.
The corpse of the fourth elder was temporarily placed on the bed. Ye Shengtian pulled off the fourth elder's clothes, and then tore off his underwear. Sure enough, he saw that his chest was bruised, but it was not big.
Duo Shandao: "What caused this bruise?"
Meng Han said: "If I read it correctly, the bruise should have been hit by the hilt of the sword."
Ye Mulin also agreed: "My nephew is right, this bruise should be when the fourth elder was fighting with the murderer, and the murderer couldn't pull out his hand, so he hit his chest with the hilt of his sword."
Ye Shengtian looked at the other injuries on the fourth elder, all of which were minor injuries, and finally came to the conclusion that the fourth elder was strangled to death. How could the four elder god-level masters be slaughtered by others? Even in the end, he will fight to the death, and he will not wait to die.
Ye Shengtian held the hand of the fourth elder, penetrated his mind into his body and slowly observed, and finally let him find out the reason.
Ye Shengtian let go of the fourth elder's hand and said lightly, "I think I may know how the fourth elder died."
The first elder said anxiously, "Young Master Ye, speak quickly."
Ye Shengtian said, "He was poisoned."
"Hehe, Young Master Ye, you may be mistaken. You must know that he is a god-level expert, and even the venom will not have much effect on him." Chang Yuba shook his head.
"Really?" Ye Shengtian disagreed and said: "He is all five-spice powder, colorless and odorless. It is precisely because he is a god-level master that the effect of the medicine is slow, and the murderer estimates the wrong time, and then the fight begins. When the effect of the drug was fully exerted, the deceased was completely powerless, and was strangled by the murderer with a rope."
The five spice powder Ye Shengtian met once, when he went to the Guangming Empire, and he did not expect to see it again today, and it proved that this medicine is indeed effective for god-level masters. It can be said that this medicine is invaluable in the gods and demons continent. .
"Five spice powder? It's incredible that this medicine still exists today." Ye Mulin said.
Ye Shengtian said: "I think the two owners of Mengduo should also have been hit with five-spice powder, so the murderer has this opportunity to attack and kill two people in a row."
Ye Mulin also raised his own question: "The four of us drank together that day, why only the two of us were poisoned, but you and I are fine."
Ye Shengtian's mind kept flashing in Ye Shengtian's mind that night, the scene of them drinking together again, one scene after another flashed in Ye Shengtian's mind like a movie and then disappeared.
"Bowls and chopsticks!" Ye Shengtian said: "Only bowls and chopsticks have the opportunity to do tricks, nothing else is possible, because the dishes we all eat and the wine we drink together, the only suspicious places are the bowls and chopsticks."
"It makes sense." Ye Mulin nodded.
Duo Shan said: "But the tableware and chopsticks must have been washed, and there will be no traces left."
Ye Shengtian smiled and said: "The bowls and chopsticks are gone, but the servant who issued the bowls and chopsticks should still be there. Since the bowls and chopsticks are poisonous, they can't be wrong. In this case, either he is the murderer, or something called him. Fa, no matter what kind, you will get clues from him.”
"Yes." Ye Mulin recalled the scene of drinking the night before, and gradually recalled that there was a servant serving bowls last night. But he didn't know the name of the housekeeper, and at this time he thought of the housekeeper Yepeng.
"The housekeeper...the housekeeper..." Ye Mulin called out twice, but the housekeeper didn't answer.
"Strange, what about others?" Ye Mu Lin asked.
"Father, the housekeeper was still here just now, so he might have left. After all, the family still has many things for him to deal with." Ye Lianqing said.
"Yeah!" Ye Mulin nodded.
The housekeeper is indeed very busy, and the family has many things for him to take care of. Therefore, Nightwood did not take it to heart.
"Oops, he's in danger." Ye Shengtian shouted suddenly.
"Young Master Ye, who do you think will be in danger?" Meng Han said.
"The servant I mentioned just now. Does anyone know which servant is usually in charge of catering." Ye Shengtian said.
"Young Master Ye, I know. His name is Xiaoliu. He has been in the house for six years, so we call him Xiaoliu when we joke." A guard stepped forward and said respectfully.
"Do you know which room he lives in?" Ye Shengtian asked.
"I know." The guard said.
"Take us quickly." Ye Shengtian said.
The guard took Ye Shengtian's group and spared the eaves of the promenade like a maze of nine-curved corridors, and came to the yard where the servants lived. As soon as everyone walked here, they heard a scream. Duoshan's figure flashed, and he had already entered the house. When everyone came in, they learned what happened in this room.
It turned out that this Jiading named Xiaoliu had been killed, and the scream came from another Jiading.
Duo Shan stared closely at the servant and asked, "You killed him?"
That Jiading was completely frightened, and just shook his head desperately, unable to answer his question at all.
Meng Han came to check Xiao Liu's body and said to everyone, "Just killed. The neck was strangled by force."
"Who is it? Don't let me find you, or you will be smashed to pieces." Duoshan roared loudly.
After finally finding some clues, it was cut off now. Everyone was very discouraged, and Duoshan roared twice.
Just when everyone was discouraged, Ye Shengtian said in shock: "Actually, it's not difficult to find the murderer."
Meng Han said, "Young Master Ye, what else can you do?"
Duo Shan looked at Ye Shengtian with hope.
Ye Shengtian pointed at Xiao Liu's body and said, "Actually, he has already told us who the murderer is."
"Young Master Ye, you're not kidding, can this corpse speak?" Chang Yuba said.
"Of course not." Ye Shengtian said.
"What does Young Master Ye mean?" Meng Han asked.
Ye Shengtian said: "I ask you, why was Xiaoliu killed?"
Meng Han said: "Of course it's killing people."
Ye Shengtian said: "Why didn't the murderer kill him early and kill him late, but when we first found out that the matter was related to him, the murderer chose to do it. How did he know that we had already found out Xiaoliu and We started to silence it earlier."
Menghan knew it at one point, and said, "I know, you mean that the murderer has been paying attention to our whereabouts, even among us."
Ye Shengtian said: "In another way of thinking, when we came out of the fourth elder's bedroom, we were missing someone, so even if this person is not the murderer, he is an accomplice."
When everyone heard the words, they all looked at each other, looking for the missing person.
"It seems that the housekeeper is bad, the others are not bad." Ye Lianqing muttered.
"The housekeeper...the housekeeper...yes, the housekeeper." Meng Han heard Ye Lianqing's muttering, and suddenly remembered that Ye Mulin asked the housekeeper to ask questions, but the housekeeper was not there, and there was no one here. away from everyone's sight.
"What happened here?" Just when everyone suspected Ye Peng, Ye Peng actually walked in.
"Housekeeper, let me ask you, where did you go just now?" Ye Mulin looked at Ye Peng and asked.
"I went to get rid of it. Just now I heard screams and rushed here. Patriarch, what's going on here?" Ye Peng showed no signs of panic.
"It's okay, just a servant was killed." Ye Mu Lin said.
Now he is the most suspected, but everyone can't produce evidence, so everyone doesn't ask any more questions.
Ye Shengtian looked at Ye Peng and said with a smile: "The housekeeper is very good at hearing, I just left the backyard to relieve the hand, it must be the thatched hut in the backyard, here is at least 500 meters away from there, you still hear screams, it's really embarrassing for you Woolen cloth."
Everyone looked at Yepeng Ye Shengtian was right, at such a long distance, Ye Mulin couldn't hear it, let alone the housekeeper.
Yepeng said angrily, "Young Master Ye, what do you mean?"
Ye Shengtian smiled and said, "It's boring, I'm complimenting you for being so old, and your eyesight and tinnitus are still ringing."
"You..." Ye Peng glared at him.
"Okay, it turns out that you, the old thief, killed my father and took his life." Duo Shan dashed over and punched Yepeng in the face.
Ye Peng dodged the punch and said, "Young Master Duo misunderstood, it wasn't me who killed your father."
"The evidence is solid, how can you be sophistry." Duoshan came with another kick, and the whole air made a wailing sound.
