half an hour later.
Some things were indeed dug out of the soil, such as letters of good service and money wandering.
However, the content of these letters is completely consistent with what Liang Service said before, and there is no new direction.
In this way, after digging the soil with little gain, Li Xiaoyu reluctantly went to the trash can in the courtyard and rummaged through it again.
Li Xiaoyu found out: "Hey! There is something!"
After finishing speaking, Li Xiaoyu picked up a bottle and it read on it: "Strong perspiration medicine, soluble in water and wine, just put in a little, once a person takes a sip, he will immediately pass out."
Seeing this, Yang Ye said, "The trash can was the first thing I searched for. It wasn't there when I was looking for it. I guess it was during the evidence search process, and the murderer just threw it away. He should have hidden the medicine bottle on his body before."
Gu Liang thought about it for a while, and said: "With this medicine, it is actually better to explain how Qian Liulang died. We thought that he was killed after drinking alcohol. But if he had a murder plan, it is really not good. Maybe I drank too much alcohol. Now if there is a sweat medicine, the doubts in this detail have been explained."
"Thus, even though we found this medicine bottle, our inference still remains the same—there is a person whom Qian wandering trusts, who gave him alcohol to drink, and he felt that he would not get drunk after only one sip, so he drank it. He didn't expect that there was sweat medicine in the wine, so he fell asleep."
Li Xiaoyu couldn't help asking: "The person he trusts? Isn't that his apprentice?"
After asking this question, Li Xiaoyu involuntarily cast her gaze on Wang Guhui.
Wang Guyou was still digging the soil at that time. She felt Li Xiaoyu's eyes, stopped her hands, and said, "It's not me. I didn't even know that my master was here. I didn't know that he was going to kill Boss Ling." .”
Gu Liang asked Wang Guyou: "For so many years, have you not been in touch with your master?"
Wang Guhui shook his head: "Master told me to live my own life well. He said, just leave Xiaodou's hatred to him. I still have a long life, so I shouldn't waste my whole life on hatred."
Hearing what Wang Guyou said, Gu Liang and Yang Ye looked at each other.
Yang Ye nodded to Gu Liang, and Gu Liang looked at Wang Guhui and Jia's girlfriend, "How about we talk alone?"
Li Xiaoyu moved closer to Gu Liang: "I want to listen too."
Gu Liang thought for a while and told her: "Help me keep an eye on other people. Maybe someone will throw things into the trash can."
Li Xiaoyu made an "OK" gesture, so Gu Liang and Yang Ye took Wang Guhui and Jia's girlfriend back to the third floor of the inn. But this time, they went to 304 where Wang Guxie lived.
Wang Guhui sat side by side with Jia's girlfriend, while Yang Ye and Gu Liang sat side by side opposite them.
Gu Liang asked Jia's girlfriend straight to the point: "Today around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, what did you do when you went to Wang's lonely room?"
Girlfriend Jia subconsciously looked at Wang Guhui and said nothing.
Gu Liang asked again: "Did you bump into Boss Ling who was stabbed in the back before this, and decided to do something while she was injured? It's impossible that the two of you haven't done anything before. What is your plan?"
After Gu Liang asked this question, the room was still silent.
Yang Ye said: "If you don't explain clearly, you are now very suspicious. We have reason to suspect that Wang Guyou used the incense talisman to go to the opposite side, killed Qian Liulang, and then killed Boss Ling. Boss Bell took to the window and let her be shot."
Wang Guyou interrupted Yang Ye and said, "No. I have absolutely no reason to kill my master."
Gu Liang looked at her and asked: "What may have happened last night that made you decide to kill Master. "Hundred Ghosts" shows that grieving ghosts may have times when their relatives do not recognize them. What is very unfavorable to you now is that even if you Deny, your timeline has always been with Jia’s girlfriend, if you are both murderers, of course you can hide it from each other. Therefore, we have no way to believe you. Unless you tell your story thoroughly.”
Wang Guhui frowned: "Nothing happened last night. I just asked my girlfriend Jia to help me kill Boss Ling. Today, during the evidence search, I found out that my master also came to this inn."
When Jia's girlfriend heard this, she couldn't help asking Gu Liang: "Who saw me enter Wang's lonely room this afternoon?"
Gu Liang said: "Chef Huang. He was the first to talk about the timeline. You didn't talk about the timeline until now, and after I expressed my doubts about you two. So in fact, even if you can tell another timeline now A method of killing Boss Bell, to be honest, I may still doubt you."
"But I still hope—maybe you can convince me that you really aren't the murderers."
Girlfriend Jia glanced at Wang Guhui, and whispered something to her.
Wang Guyou hesitated for a long time, and finally nodded.
Girlfriend Jia said: "Wang Guyou and I have been together since last night. Around 1:30 in the afternoon, we heard a very loud sound from the wooden stairs. We opened the door and saw that Zhao Meili was in a panic. She ran up. The loud sound of stepping on the stairs was made by her."
"Afterwards, we both saw the injured Boss Bell coming up. Boss Bell wanted to go back to his room to rest, but we stopped him. We both said we knew her identity and we had questions to ask her."
"Boss Ling agreed to come down and went to Wang's lonely room. By the way—"
Having said that, Jia's girlfriend looked at Wang Guhui and said, "Please explain your spell."
Wang Guyou took over the words and said: "If you have seen my suitcase, you should be able to see a lot of formations and spell books, because I have been studying how to kill powerful ghosts for eighteen years. I didn't just do it a month ago. Die? Before I died, I drew a talisman with my own blood, and that talisman was raised by me for a year. After Boss Bell came to my room, I stuck that talisman on her face."
Hearing this, Gu Liang went to the corridor outside the house, retrieved a few books, and handed them to Wang Guyou: "Which talisman is it?"
Wang Guyou picked up a book, opened a page, and pointed at it: "This is it."
Gu Liang looked at that page, only to see that it read: "[Very powerful ghost-killing blood talisman], it can kill ghosts who have cultivated for a hundred years, but it requires the caster's hard work to nourish the talisman. It consumes a lot, please use it with caution."
"How to use: Paste it on the face of the ghost, and set fire to the talisman paper to burn the ghost with karma."
"Attention, the blood talisman can't kill the ghost immediately. The moment the talisman paper is burned, it just planted a heart fire in the ghost's heart. After 3 hours, the heart fire turned into a karmic fire, burning the ghost to death from the inside out."
Gu Liang couldn't help frowning: "So, when you tried to get rid of Boss Bell, you burned this blood talisman. This means that this evidence no longer exists, and you have no way of proving that you used this talisman."
Wang Guhui said: "I really have no way to prove it. But I really didn't know that my master was on the other side of the lake, and I didn't even know that he had a plan to deal with Boss Ling. I just prepared a blood talisman to deal with Boss Bell."
Gu Liang thought for a moment, then looked at Jia's girlfriend beside him: "Then you appeared at the door of Wang's lonely room at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, what's going on?"
"Because Wang Guyou's blood talisman may not be successful. She just inquired about this method of eliminating ghosts, but she has not tried it herself after all. We want to lock Boss Ling in her room for 3 hours and wait to see the effect. "
"During this period, in order to prevent Boss Ling from escaping, I want to go back to the 303 where I live with Tourist Jia to get the mahogany sword. My mahogany sword is in my suitcase. It is around 2 o'clock. I went to Tourist Jia and knocked on it. He hasn't come back yet, and I couldn't find Boss Ling's spare key for a while, so I had to go back to Wang's lonely room."
"You said that Chef Huang saw me going to Wang's lonely room. It should be because I knocked on Jia's door and turned back to Wang's lonely room. He saw me."
Yang Ye couldn't help asking at this time: "So, after breakfast, you basically haven't seen Tourist Jia all day, and you haven't even gone back to his room?"
Girlfriend Jia said: "No. Boss Bell only gave us a key, and that key has always been with Tourist Jia. Didn't Boss Bell want to see him alone last night? I lived alone with Wang last night. I know. After breakfast, Tourist Jia was going to climb the mountain, and he locked the door after he left, and I have never entered the room."
Gu Liang thought of something, and asked Yang Ye: "Didn't you push Tourist Jia down the mountain? Is it possible that he actually died and turned into a ghost? I just don't know how he knew about the existence of money wandering and money wandering." planned."
Before Yang Ye could answer, Jia’s girlfriend said, “It’s unlikely. As a Taoist, I can know which ones are human and which ones are ghosts. In my story, from the beginning to the end, Jia’s tourists are all human beings. What about you? Can you ghosts recognize the same kind? Is Tourist Jia a ghost?"
"He's not." Wang Guyou said with certainty, "When I met Boss Ling, Service Liang, and even Chef Huang, we all knew each other was a ghost. But it wasn't in my story. I found out that Tourist Jia was also a ghost. .”
too weird.
Tourist Jia is not a ghost. In fact, it is really impossible for him to know about Qian Wandering's plan. It is very unlikely that he can go to the other side of the lake to commit crimes. But his role is too soy sauce, which is very unusual.
Gu Liang couldn't think of new ideas for the time being, so he could only continue to ask Wang Guyao: "What about after that? Can you tell us more about the timeline of you and Jia's girlfriend?"
"At 1:40 p.m., I used a blood talisman for Boss Ling. She was very uncomfortable and couldn't do anything for a while. At around 2 o'clock, Wang Guyou went out to get the mahogany sword, but returned in vain. I The two can only use their strength to find a way to trap Boss Ling."
"But thinking about it, Boss Bell is still too powerful. After another 20 minutes, which is about 2:20, she took advantage of our relaxation of vigilance, broke free from our restraint on her, jumped out of the window and escaped."
Gu Liang recorded these timelines and said: "So, if your blood talisman takes effect, there will be karmic fire burning from the ghost's body in 3 hours. If you place the blood talisman at 1:40, Boss Ling will burn it at 4 o'clock." At 40 minutes, she was burned to death by will-o'-the-wisp fire. What symptoms would she have if she was burned to death by karmic fire?"
Wang Guhui was silent for a long time, and then said: "You have asked the key point. We don't know what kind of traces the fire of karma will leave. This is why my girlfriend Jia and I dare not recognize it."
Wang Guyuan explained further: "You have seen it, Senior Hua. This clue does not say if she is burned to death by the karmic fire, will there really be traces of the fire on her body, or will she just be wiped out..."
"This is the reason why my girlfriend Jia and I didn't dare to admit it before. This kind of blood talisman can kill ghosts. It's a secret method I heard, but I can't guarantee that it can kill ghosts, and I don't know that after karma kills ghosts, What is the ghost's death like?"
After a long while, Gu Liang nodded: "I understand. If the karmic fire burns ghosts, it will leave traces, but you will dare to recognize it. For example, Boss Ling has no burn marks on her body, so you can say with certainty that she was on the ground. The mahogany bullet hit before 4:40, so she died from the mahogany bullet, not the karmic fire."
"But you don't know the death condition caused by Yehuo burning the ghost. So you can't be sure whether she died before Yehuo, or after the bullet, or something else."
"Yes. That's it. If you are sure that the bullet came from the other side of the lake, then I dare to admit it. Because she couldn't be burned to death by the fire, and then stood by the window and was hit by the bullet. She couldn't do it herself. That's right, the murderer who tried to kill her with bullets didn't have to do that. She's already dead, so why let her be shot?"
Wang Guhui said, "But the search has not yet reached the final stage, and we can't say for sure how she was shot, so my girlfriend Jia and I didn't dare to admit it."
"You and President Gao also reminded me. Even if I say this, you may think that everything I said was made up by me and Jia's girlfriend. After all, our timeline is almost the same. Focus on the discussion Sometimes, we may become the main suspects. Next, I will explore with my girlfriend Jia and find a way to clear our suspicion."
Seeing that Wang Guhui and Jia's girlfriend were about to get up and leave, Gu Liang stopped them. "Wait. I still have some doubts. So in fact, you decided to use the blood talisman to deal with Boss Ling this afternoon. It was actually a temporary idea after seeing her being stabbed. What was your original plan? You each have 5 'suction' in your luggage Xiangfu', what did you use it for?"
Wang Guhui said: "I plan to use this for myself. Boss Bell told me that he will talk to me when I have a chance later. I plan to make an appointment with her tonight. After killing her, I will use the incense Talisman, you can leave here without anyone noticing."
"Before I came, I didn't fully think about the plan. But I have to prepare the incense-absorbing talisman. After all, I didn't know you when I first came here, and I didn't know whether you were friends or foes. The incense-absorbing talisman was prepared for myself to escape. of."
Jia's girlfriend said: "I just take it for emergencies. I have a lot of things related to ghosts, not only incense sticks, but also all kinds of messy charms. I just carry them habitually. I will Before, there was no plan. I just came to help Jia tourists do research."
Gu Liang asked again: "Then you originally had 5 incense charms each? Is there any possibility of missing or being stolen?"
Both Wang Guhui and Jia's girlfriend shook their heads.
Gu Liang asked: "So, you don't know whose incense talisman was found in the yard?"
"I don't know." Wang Guhui shook his head, "But Chef Huang and Sergeant Liang, since the two of them know the fragrance of rhinoceros horn, and they are ghosts who have lived for many years, it is impossible that they do not know about the incense-absorbing talisman."
On the side, Yang Ye asked, "Then how to use this talisman?"
Wang Guyu: "It's also burning."
Yang Ye let out a breath, folded his fingers on the table, and looked at Gu Liang: "So, it is actually difficult to find too many clues when the talisman paper turns to ashes and melts into the soil."
Gu Liang was also a little serious. "Even if some burnt debris is found in the soil, it is probably in a public area such as the courtyard, and it is difficult to have a specific point."
The time came to 11:30 in the evening.
Still in Wang's lonely room.
Gu Liang sat opposite Yang Ye.
Gu Liang was looking at what he and Yang Ye had done before, that is, the permutation and combination of "murderer A" and "murderer B".
After a while, Yang Ye asked him, "What do you think now?"
Gu Liang lifted his eyes from the notebook and said, "I can only say that the murderer B is indeed only those three ghosts. I have clearly analyzed it with Wang Guhui and Jia's girlfriend, and they are very suspicious. .If they were really murderers, they could actually kill Jia Tourist who fell off a cliff and became a ghost. But they didn’t.”
Yang Ye was silent for a moment, and said, "No one knows where Boss Ling went this morning. It's very strange."
Gu Liang frowned and said: "It's impossible for her to go to the other side of the lake to kill homeless people. It's impossible. If she goes, she can clean up the bullets in the homeless man's hut. Then she won't be killed by bullets."
Yang Ye thought for a while, and his eyes brightened slightly: "It is also possible that it is really like what you said. She killed the homeless man, brought the bullets and gun back, and put them in her room, preparing to deal with them later. Then someone went to She saw guns and bullets in her room, shot her dead in the woods, then took the guns and bullets to the hut on the opposite side, rearranged the scene, and pretended that the gun came from the opposite side."
"If so, it makes sense."
Gu Liang frowned, "But this will overturn all our previous analysis."
"Wang Guyou said just now that Boss Ling jumped out of her room at 2:20 p.m.."
"Then the first possibility is that at 2 o'clock, when Jia's girlfriend was looking for Tao Mujian, she failed to go to Jia's room, but she went to Boss Ling's room and saw the gun that Boss Ling hid there, and then she took it I fired my gun and returned to Wang's lonely room."
"At 2:20, after Boss Ling jumped out of the window, Wang Guyou and Jia's girlfriend chased her out with guns, chased her all the way to the woods and shot her dead. Then Jia's girlfriend returned to the inn, and Wang Guyou used incense talismans to find the person who hid the gun. place, found the other side of the lake, found the hut, put the gun in it... "
"The second possibility is that the service went to the other side of the lake at 2:30 in the afternoon, and found that he had been killed, so he returned to the inn, went to Boss Ling's house and found a gun, chased all the way out to find Boss Bell, and found the seriously injured Bell in the woods. Boss, shoot him."
"The third possibility is Chef Huang."
"In fact, if it is the latter two possibilities, then there is no combination of murderers. From the beginning to the end, there may be only one murderer."
Gu Liang let out a long breath, "But in this way, we can't exclude anyone."
For example, before they ruled out that the beautiful service was the murderer B, they ruled out the possibility of her killing money and wandering around.
But now if Boss Bell kills the homeless man, and Liang Service just shoots Boss Bell with a gun at close range in the woods, then it is entirely possible.
"No, I want to correct it. The possibility of this is very small. I forgot just now, Li Xiaoyu just found the Mongolian sweat medicine. I rummaged through the trash can right after I came back. There was indeed no medicine bottle for Mongolian sweat medicine at that time."
"This means that the murderer threw the empty medicine bottle into the trash can during the evidence search process. And the Mongolian sweat medicine must have been poured into the wine to deal with the moneyless. Then, it must not be Boss Ling who killed the moneyless, then , the murderer who killed him is among us."
Yang Yedao, "Still analyzing as before, the murderer is the combination of AB, that's right."
"Then, the key questions now are, first, where did Boss Ling go this morning; second, is Tourist Jia really so soy sauce. Third..."
Gu Liang took out his own card and looked at the red circle on the map.
The red circle surrounded the inn, indicating that this was the only area available for exploration, while everything around was shrouded in thick fog.
Thinking of something, Yang Ye took out a reward card.
Gu Liang looked at the card and found that it was called [Restart Exploration Area Card].
How to use: Players can use this card to reopen closed investigation areas, such as crime scenes, etc.
Yang Ye looked at Gu Liang: "Would you like to visit other places?"
Gu Liang asked him: "How far is it from the place you climbed in the daytime?"
Yang Yedao: "It takes an hour to climb to the top of the mountain."
Gu Liang: "Did you push Tourist Jia down from the top of the mountain?"
Yang Ye nodded.
Gu Liang thought for a while: "Then it will take two hours to go back and forth. The time is very tight, and we may not be able to find it. The forest of steles that Wang Guyou and the others went to. I can't think of any clues left in these two places. Even if There are some left, the place is too big, and the probability of finding key clues is very small.”
"Yang Ye, right here in this inn, there must be something that we have overlooked."
12 midnight.
There was a slight smell of food from the kitchen.
Gu Liang went to the kitchen and found Mingyue cooking.
Turning her head to see Gu Liang walking in, Mingyue smiled at him: "Brother Liang, do you know who the murderer is?"
Gu Liang only asked: "Are you cooking?"
Mingyue nodded: "Yes. The investigation time this time is very long. Before the intensive discussion, the system arranged a supper time for you. I will be the chef. Do you have anything special to eat?"
Gu Liang had no intention of eating supper, so he just asked again: "You saw Jia's girlfriend going to Wang's lonely room at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. What was the specific situation at that time, can you describe it? For example, did Jia's girlfriend hold any What? Like a mahogany sword?"
Mingyue paused while holding the spoon, then scooped a little salt into the big iron pot, then shook her head and said, "Not sure. I only saw the back of her walking into the door of Wang Guhui's room, which was fleeting. So I don't know if she walked out of her own room and then went to Wang's lonely room."
