The fast-traveling girl has no feelings for her

Chapter 315 Heiresses ([-]) (Second)
The female officer who entered the inn immediately spotted the people hiding in the corner.

She winked at the person behind her and said, "Go and question these people and ask them what they saw just now."

"Yes, my lord." One person agreed and stepped back.

Then the female officer took another person beside her to the second floor of the inn to check.

As soon as the two of them climbed the steps on the second floor, they saw two bloody corpses lying on the stairway.

The female officer stepped forward to check carefully and found that both of them were dead.

Moreover, they were all wearing mandarin jackets and braided black long braids. They should be businessmen who came to the country from Fuqu Island to do business.

Judging from the injuries of the deceased, they were all the kind of people who were stabbed through the heart and died immediately, which shows the viciousness of the person who did it.

The female officer couldn't help but think of the Fuquguo woman's corpse still lying outside the inn. The wounds on her body were almost the same as those of the two.

She then recalled that the warden had received a report from someone.

The person who reported it said that Her Royal Highness the Seventh Princess committed murder at Ming Lai Inn, and her behavior was abominable and outrageous. Therefore, after the people above heard about the incident, they finally decided to send her here to investigate the case after discussion.

Before leaving the house, the Shangguan, who knew her unselfish character, only gave her a four-word instruction, which was to "do business with business".

After all, according to the laws and regulations of the state, even if the emperor breaks the law, he must be guilty of the same crime as the common people.

If today's bloody case was really committed by the Seventh Emperor's daughter downstairs, I'm afraid that the other party will not be able to escape the punishment of the law.

Thinking of this, the female officer did not dare to be negligent at all, and she continued to carefully investigate the scene.

After she searched the floor carefully back and forth several times, based on the bloodstains and footprints on the scene, she roughly calculated and restored the assassination scene at the time of the incident.

At that time, there should have been a conflict between two parties, and one party suddenly violently killed people. This person's methods were ruthless, and he could kill people with one knife, and he even killed two people in a row.

The only problem was that many of the footprints at the scene were blurred by the sprayed blood, making it impossible to tell where the people present were standing.

After the female officer ordered her men to guard the scene, she turned and returned downstairs.

At this time, the subordinate in the lobby downstairs has already obtained the statements of the shopkeeper, the staff and all the guests.

According to what they said, about a quarter of an hour ago, the Seventh Emperor brought one of her subordinates to the shop, and asked by name which houses the dead Fuqu merchants lived in.

The shopkeeper saw that it was the emperor's daughter, so he didn't keep the secret for his guests, and gave the room number.

But who would have thought that not long after the Seventh Princess led the people up, several screams came from upstairs.

Immediately afterwards, there was the scene where the girl with long braids in a mandarin jacket escaped from upstairs, and then rushed to the street crying.

The female officer checked the statements of these people and found that they were almost the same, so there should be no problem.

She put down the book in her hand and turned to look at the shopkeeper of the inn.

"How did the seventh princess look when she came here? Was she angry? Also, after she led people upstairs, did you people here hear any quarrels?"

After trying to recall for a while, the shopkeeper shook his head and said, "No, the Seventh Queen's expression was as usual at that time, as if she came to chat with a friend, at least I didn't see anything unusual."

"As for the quarrel, I was greeting the guests in the lobby and didn't hear it."

After hearing this, the female officer asked the shopkeeper for today's guest list and looked through the residents on the second floor.

Coincidentally, it is just past noon now, when all the guests from last night have checked out and the new guests have not yet checked in.

Therefore, on the entire second floor of the inn, the only people who checked in were the room occupied by the Fuqu businessman who had booked a five-day long-term lease, and the room she opened for her two servants.

Only these two rooms are occupied, the other rooms are all vacant.

In other words, when the incident happened, there were no witnesses on the second floor of the inn who witnessed or heard the quarrel between the two parties.

Such a coincidence made the female officer have a flash of inspiration in her mind, but the light was fleeting and did not help her think of anything.

After thinking hard to no avail, she could only put the matter aside for the time being, turned around and went outside the door to have a conversation with the seventh imperial daughter.

At the moment when she was investigating the case, the crowd of onlookers outside only increased, and the whole street was completely surrounded.

There are even people from other neighborhoods who are still rushing here after hearing about the murder of the queen.

At the entrance of the inn, the female official who was facing the seventh emperor's eyes saw a little uneasiness and panic in the eyes of the other party.

The female officer said in a deep voice, "Your Highness Seventh Emperor, I am the person in charge of today's case. Regarding the details of the case, there are some things that I must ask Your Highness to verify. If there is any offense in the words of the following official, please also Your Highness." Forgive me."

The Seventh Princess squeezed her quietly sweating palm, put it behind her back, and replied loudly, "If you want to ask me if I killed those two people in the inn, I can only tell you no. Because they It was indeed not me who killed him, but this person!"

As she spoke, she pointed to the girl with long braids in a mandarin jacket who had fallen to the ground and died, which meant that the murderer was this person.

Seeing this situation, the surrounding people booed immediately.

Apparently, even they couldn't believe it. In order to get rid of the crime, her Royal Highness could even blame the dead on the dead.

This kind of behavior is simply despicable and shameful, despicable and shameful!

After hearing the boos of the common people, the Seventh Emperor's face flushed instantly, and blood rushed from her neck to the roots of her ears.

The attendant beside her was already upset that her master was besieged by these people.

I saw her angrily drawing her sword to protect her master and shouting loudly, "My Highness said she didn't kill the person, so it wasn't her! Just imagine if my Highness really wanted to kill someone, why would she do it herself?" Do it yourself?”

This guard can be regarded as doing bad things with good intentions.

She originally wanted to speak for her master, but her words made people feel more suspicious.

Someone in the crowd replied with a strange foreign accent, "Of course your Highness doesn't have to do it yourself, isn't it because you are here?"

The others also burst into laughter when they heard the words.

The female guard was also annoyed and anxious by this situation. She wanted to argue again, but was dragged behind her by her master.

"Okay, Xiaoyu, these people haven't seen anything, they don't know anything, why do you need to argue with them?"

After hearing the words of the seventh emperor, the female guard Xiaoyu had no choice but to retreat behind her master.

In the carriage not far away, Lin Shu, who could clearly see and hear this scene, had a thoughtful look in her eyes.

Judging from the performance of the seventh emperor so far, it seems that there is no guilty conscience.

Just now, she was blocked by the people at the door of the inn and refused to leave. There was no anger or impatience on her face. She should be a person of magnanimity and restraint.

Such a person would really fight with a businessman for some kind of treasure bowl, as the dead woman in a mandarin jacket with long braids said, and follow him into the inn even after being spoken to by the other party. Murderous murder?
Lin Shu realized that if the murderer was really the seventh emperor, then her motive for killing was too weak.
