People in Liaozhai, meet Chang'e at the beginning

Chapter 102 More than one murderer!
"It turned out to be the Peach Blossom Palace... When I met Mr. Shigui for the second time, I heard one of the women talk about the Peach Blossom Palace. She asked me if I would like to enter the Peach Blossom Palace to practice. I was thinking of seeing you again. Ye Lang refused. However, before they left, he still told me with a smile that I would meet the person I wanted to see."

Hearing Ye Hua mention the Peach Blossom Palace, Su Xiaoxiao sighed for a long time, and then asked: "However, Ye Lang, can she really enter the Peach Blossom Palace?"

"Okay! It's over here, I will arrange it." Ye Hua nodded to Su Xiaoxiao, then looked at Liu Rushi, and asked, "But, if you are a girl, why do you say that you are 'involving others'!"

Liu Rushi had a complicated look on his face, remained silent for a moment, and replied with some sadness: "I...I got the little beggar in trouble, and he lost his life because of me."

"Could it be that little beggar who died in Mucai Pavilion the day before yesterday?" Nannan asked in surprise.

Liu Rushi replied sadly again: "Yes, the moment I saw the strings, I knew why he died."

"Huh? Could it be that the death of the little beggar has something to do with you?" Qingying exclaimed.

Liu Rushi looked at the strings that had just been installed, and became more and more sad, and replied: "This string must be the little beggar who knew that my string was damaged, so he spent all his savings to find a stringer to buy a new string. Then you want to sneak into the attic and give it to me, who knows..."

Seeing that Liu Rushi was so sad that she couldn't continue, Yaya said for her: "Who knows, he was innocently killed by an unknown murderer, so pitiful..."

"Hey, it's all my fault..." Liu Rushi became even more sad, her expression was depressed, and she sighed and blamed herself.

"Hey..." Su Xiaoxiao also sighed, and then whispered to Ye Hua, "Little beggar is the only person in Lin'an City who treats her sincerely, she must be very sad, Ye Lang, please help her find out Clear this up."

"However, for such a big matter, I didn't have any clue after looking at it for a long time." Nannan patted her forehead, feeling very embarrassed.

Ye Hua nodded affirmatively to Su Xiaoxiao, expressing that he would help to investigate the case. After thinking for a while, he said, "Of the five deceased, two were wealthy men who abandoned their wives and children, and the remaining three But they are all ordinary people with mediocre status and never commit crimes."

"Oh, this murderer kills everyone, I really don't know what he is thinking..." Qingying complained a little annoyed.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Qingying, and then said to Ye Hua: "Perhaps, these five murders were not committed by the same murderer at all?"

"That's right, why didn't I think of that!" Qingying suddenly realized, and patted her forehead just like Nannie.

Then, she saw Pu Songling and Zhuge Liuyun walking in, so she hurriedly said to Ye Hua: "Hey, Lao Pu and Liuyun came in, Ye Ye, go ask them what clues they have!"

Ye Hua nodded, then looked at Su Xiaoxiao, and said, "Xiao Xiao, you stay here to comfort Miss Rushi, and I'll ask you first."

"Well, Ye Lang, I'll wait for you here." Su Xiaoxiao took Liu Rushi's hand and nodded to Ye Hua.

Ye Hua returned to the first floor with Qingying, Nannan and Yaya, and told Yaya to take care of Su Xiaoxiao's safety.

Yaya teased Ye Hua in her heart about "the newcomers laugh, but the old ones cry", but she still agreed.

Ye Hua was very speechless, and didn't bother to care about the inexplicable fight between the women, so he quickly walked in front of Pu Songling and Zhuge Liuyun.

"Singing and dancing in the banquet, the swaying of the bamboo clothes... It's desolate in an instant."

Hearing Pu Songling's emotional voice looking at the Mucai Pavilion, Qingying asked with a smile: "Old Pu, have you and Liuyun found a partner? Did you find anything important?"

Before Pu Songling could speak, Zhuge Liuyun looked around at the crowd, smiled proudly, and whispered back: "We have made an amazing discovery!"

"Ah, what did you find?" Nannan asked quickly.

Seeing her cooperating so well, and seeing Pu Songling nodding kindly to him, Zhuge Liuyun immediately replied seriously:

"The two who died at the beginning had smooth incisions on the soles of their feet. They were fatal with one blow, and there was no blood left in their veins. It looked like the work of monsters with high mana.

"As for the little beggar, the maid, and the yamen servant who died later, their wounds were very uneven, and several scratches could be seen, and there were still bloodstains. The methods were obviously more clumsy, and it was more like man-made!"

Qingying gasped, and exclaimed: "So, it's really possible... there's more than one murderer!"

Ye Hua was silent for a moment, then said: "At this point, the case has already emerged. Maybe we can find out more if we investigate the suspicious points in Mucai Pavilion and speculate on the circumstances at the time of the crime!"

Zhuge Liuyun nodded repeatedly, and said: "Yes, yes, yes, according to the case file, there were three strange things at the scene of the crime, a strange wooden barrel, a broken teacup, and a scratch caused by an unknown mechanism. "

Ye Hua glanced at Yang Mengyan who was still mediating with the proprietress and the two women who came to quarrel not far away, walked to her side, and whispered something to her.

Yang Mengyan glanced at Ye Hua, then at the others, then scolded the proprietress, and then took Ye Hua to the scene of the crime, which was the place where Mucai Pavilion was closed.

The place where the accident happened was not far from the middle of the hall of Mucai Pavilion. After Ye Hua saw the broken teacup on the ground, he looked at the wooden barrel not far away, and then walked to the scratches to check carefully.

The scratches on the ground seem to be caused by using some kind of mechanism to pull the thread and lift some heavy things to cause these strange scratches...

And there is still blood in this wooden barrel...

And the broken teacup, it seemed that he had discovered something ulterior, so he lost his hand and dropped it to the ground in a panic.

Could it be...

Thinking of what Liu Rushi said, Ye Hua had some speculations in his heart, maybe the little beggar sneaked into Mucai Pavilion to give Liu Rushi strings, but accidentally discovered something ulterior, and was killed by the murderer. And the maid saw the murderer killing the little beggar by mistake, and was also implicated and killed.

Afterwards, the murderer thought of the monster killing incident in Lin'an City, so he drained the blood of the little beggar and the maid into the wooden barrel... It made people think that it was also the work of the monster...

Hearing Ye Hua's conjecture, Zhuge Liuyun rolled up his sleeves indignantly, and said angrily, "It really is those fake Taoist priests!"

"However, according to your judgment on the wound, the murderer is very likely to be two...one is a demon and the other is a human!" Nanni sniffed her nose and said, "Ah, it seems that my nimble little nose has already smelled it." A trace of the breath of other monsters once floated in this Mucai Pavilion."

Qingying thought for a while and said: "Let's put aside the demon thing for now, let's go find that person!"
