Liu Wei sighed: "The magpie has wounds on its neck and chest, and even the small wounds on its fingertips."
"This can't explain what Mr. said before." Liu Yu said.
What about looking in the mirror, why you can't find the child if you make a mistake at a glance, these things can also be seen from the corpse
Liu Wei smiled: "Your Excellency, you don't have to rush to question, I haven't finished talking yet." He pointed to the water stains on the window.
"Who left the string of water stains here? There was no drip in the teapot in the room. Who poured it out? How did the wounds on the magpie's neck and chest come about? Also, the murderer arrested Fifth Young Master, Where is it hiding?"
Seeing that everyone started to think about it, Liu Wei said directly.
"The window of the room was opened, and something slippery crawled in. I guess it was a snake. The little snake was not big, and it was only as long as a palm. It first got in through the gap in the window, and the water for the flowers on the gap was not dry. , it crawled down the window lattice with water on its body, and left a string of watermarks on the small table in front of the window, because the snake body has snake oil on it, so when it crawls over like this, the water will not be able to dry if it is stained with oil, and it will leave A string of traces came in from the window lattice, and finally went down to the bottom toy basket."
"Sir, you mean that it was a little snake that robbed my fifth younger brother? Do you think it's a ghost?"
"Master Shi Lang can't listen to me and then express my high opinion?" Liu Wei was interrupted, displeased: "If Lord Minister is so capable, why don't you just say it, and I will listen."
Liu Cheng said in a deep voice, "Yu'er, let Mr. finish."
Liu Yu lowered his head, and Liu Wei continued: "This little snake is not a monster that can transform into a human body, and I don't want to vaguely push the matter of the Fifth Young Master on the monster. At this time, it is clear and true that it is man-made. It’s just that the little snake, after being taught a lesson, brought a small thing in, and this thing is what makes the magpie’s neck itchy.”
"What it is?"
"I don't know." Liu Wei said bluntly: "I have never heard of this kind of thing, but it should be something like a silk thread. That thing clings to the magpie's neck, causing the next thing to happen, and the next thing is the key point."
She turned her eyes and looked at Rong Leng.
"Lieutenant Rong, can you tell me what you saw on the beams?"
For a moment, all eyes turned to him.
Rong Ling said flatly: "There are traces of someone hiding."
"Tell me in detail." Although I know that Captain Rong usually speaks succinctly, except for special things, he usually doesn't like to talk with outsiders, but this is too succinct.
Rong Leng seemed to organize his words, and said again: "There are footprints on the beams, and there are more than one place."
"The murderer?" Liu Yu asked.
Liu Wei continued: "If it's not the murderer, who is it? Everyone knows that the murderer came and went without a trace, very mysterious and weird, but from my point of view, it's not the case. There are so many clues left by him that it's impossible to arrest him immediately." It's not an exaggeration, I don't know whether it was Jing Zhaoyin or the Ministry of Punishment or the Ministry of War, did you really not see it at all?"
When she said this, the two Beijing patrol guards who followed outside also blushed.
"There are more than shoe prints left on the beams, indicating that the murderer stayed there for a long time, definitely not for a short while, looking for the best time, and he had applied the medicine in the kettle in the room beforehand, and when the hot water rushed in, the medicine's effect would take effect. He originally wanted to stun the magpie, but the magpie didn't drink the water. Seeing that the time was almost up, and he was about to miss his pre-arranged escape time, he became anxious and released the little snake. The little snake came with a strange silk thread, Send the magpie away."
"Then, he quickly grabbed Fifth Young Master onto the beam. There were more than one footprints on the beam, which meant that there were more than one person on it, at least two. When the magpie realized something was wrong and went out to call for someone, He was afraid that he would call the guards first, so he had no choice but to use the toy in Fifth Young Master's hand, such as the small wooden ball, to bounce it down, leaving a wound on the magpie's chest.
"Taking advantage of the severe pain of the magpie, he quickly escaped from the window, but the murderer would not go far. Taking advantage of the chaos in the mansion, he hurried back, poured out the tea mixed with medicine, and took his little snake away. , After doing all this, he left completely."
What she said, as if she had witnessed it with her own eyes, was so well-founded that the people around her didn't know whether to believe it or not, and they all looked at each other in blank dismay.
On the contrary, Qiaoxin heard this, and hurried back to the next room to tell his wife.
The prime minister's wife fell into silence, and asked after a while: "Then where is my Feng'er now? Since he can say these words, can he also know what is going on with my Feng'er from these clues?"
Qiaoxin thought, Madam is really confused, she thinks that Mr. Liu can see so many things from one corpse and one room, it is so unbelievable, then if you pinch it out of thin air, you may know it The whereabouts of the Fifth Young Master.
But Fifth Young Master was taken away. There are tens of thousands of roads in this world. They only know the reason why Fifth Young Master disappeared, but they don't know who the murderer is. How can they find Fifth Young Master
But she thought so in her heart, but she couldn't say it out of her mouth, so she had to run back and continue to inquire.
In the room, Liu Wei continued to say: "Don't you think it's strange all the time? I have read Jing Zhaoyin's appendix below. In the past three years, twenty or thirty people have disappeared intermittently in Jing, but those children are without exception. , are all between half a month and two years old. The oldest one is probably the little grandson of the Taishi family, who is two and a half years old. Doesn’t anyone think it’s weird that the murderer only arrests children of this age?”
It is indeed weird, but who knows why it is weird.
"It's very simple." Liu Wei chuckled lightly, and her voice was insightful: "Only children are easy to hide. According to this murderer's method of stealing people, he hides the beams of the house and prescribes drugs. It's so dishonest. What the rats did, is it still true?" Can you run around the victim's house with a big child in your arms? Of course, only small children are easy to steal, and when they grow up, I'm afraid they will show their feet."
It seems to be the truth.
Liucheng and Liuyu father and son looked at each other, and they were suddenly enlightened. The missing child case was a major case in Kyoto in recent years. Liuyu was in the Ministry of Officials, and Liucheng was in Zhongshu. The two knew almost all the officials in Beijing, so how could they be wrong about this Put your heart into it.
When the incident first happened, only three children were lost, but the family who lost them had a lot of official positions, and they belonged to the same party, so there were different opinions for a while. At that time, Liu Cheng also secretly investigated. He thought it was just revenge from political enemies, but Unexpectedly, the case was so complicated and confusing.
It was not until today that Wu Zuo, who couldn't even see his face clearly, gave a clear answer.
The surroundings were quiet for a while, but Liu Cheng spoke first.
He changed his previous high-handed and arrogant demeanor, and in a rare way, he bowed his hands to Liu Wei, a commoner, and his attitude was much more courteous: "Mr. is resourceful and decisive, and I admire him for his true knowledge! It's just that the murderer is so lawless, so let him go like this." Now, I really can't bear it, I don't know if you can find out the murderer's identity, and return my son, which is also an explanation to the adults in the court!"
Liu Wei chuckled lightly: "My lord, you are being polite. The murderer must be investigated. Since I was invited by Mr. Rong to help me, I naturally want to solve the case. But in the final analysis, there are still few clues. It is really hard to speculate on the identity of the murderer."
