As an ordinary human being, let alone being stabbed by a knife, even if you have a slight illness or pain, you will feel like you cannot lift your strength.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhen nodded in agreement: "That's the truth...then what?"

"Since the deceased had lost the ability to resist at that time, the blood mark on the blade could only have been left before the deceased was stabbed."

Fang Yu explained, "This is why I said before that there was more than one injured person."

this moment.

Lin Shenze's eyes changed when he looked at his companions.

Facing the admiring and a little disbelieving look, Fang Yu puffed up his chest proudly.

"But..." Xia Yanzhou raised her hand, "I have a question."

Fang Yu: "What?"

Xia Yanzhou pointed to the knife in Chi Yu's hand: "Didn't we just reach a consensus that the other blood stain was left when wiping the neck? But according to your inference, the deceased used the same murder weapon to inflict wounds on the murderer before he was killed. Hurt..."

"Then what...if being stabbed in the chest is a fatal injury, then being wiped on the neck...how should we count it?"

Fang Yu's proud expression suddenly froze on his face.

……yes!

According to his theory, the deceased wiped another person's neck before being stabbed... If the person whose neck was wiped was the murderer, then the body that appeared here at this moment should not be Lin Ziyu.

If there was another person whose neck was wiped...then there should be two corpses, and the clues don't match either!

Fang Yu scratched his head: "Perhaps we misjudged the blood marks? Think about it...even if it was not wiped on the neck, but cut to other places, there would still be such marks, right?"

"...It makes sense." Xia Yanzhou was convinced.

She turned and moved closer to Chi Yu, who had been silent all this time: "How's it going? Did you see anything?"

Chi Yu shook his head, and just as he was about to speak, a crisp ringtone from his cell phone rang in his ears.

Everyone followed the sound.

On the tabletop of the dining table, the black mobile phone screen suddenly lit up.

Accompanied by a slight vibration, the word "Uncle" on the page was also slowly floating.

"How to do?"

"Can you take it?"

"Who picks up?"

Lin Shenze, Xia Yanzhou and Fang Yu spoke almost simultaneously.

The three people looked at each other.

Then, Lin Shenze hit Fang Yu with his elbow.

Fang Yu waved his hands desperately and kept tilting his chin in the direction of Qin Zhen.

Qin Zhen looked helpless. He first glanced at Xia Yanzhou...less than a second later, he shifted his gaze to Chi Yu.

Chi Yu raised his eyebrows and pointed at himself.

The other four nodded vigorously.

Chi Yu sighed, reached for his phone, swiped to answer it, and turned on the speakerphone below.

"I was just in a meeting and didn't have time to answer the phone."

A steady male voice came from the receiver, "What kind of trouble is it today?"

Chi Yu remained silent.

She quickly switched the screen, looked at the screen saver of her phone and several learning apps on it, then flipped through the information page of the chat software, and finally raised her eyes to glance at the date and time at the top of the screen.

"Hello? Are you listening?"

"Yes." Chi Yu lowered his voice and said in a dazed tone, "Mom...she is dead."

Xia Yanzhou and others held their breath and stared intently at Chi Yu, who was still expressionless.

On the other side of the phone, the man seemed stunned for a moment.

After two or three seconds, he continued to ask: "What's going on?"

"I don't know...I don't know either."

Chi Yu's voice was full of pain and confusion, "I came home tonight, and my mother cooked a table full of dishes, as if to celebrate something, and then, then..."

"Did you tell her that?"

that matter?

That..."trouble"?

Chi Yuzhong glanced at the date and time at the top of the screen - May 31st, 19:58.

If she remembered correctly, Xu Yi died on May 30th.

Although I don't know the specific year...but if nothing unexpected happens, "now" should be the day after Xu Yi's death.

this moment.

Chi Yu suddenly remembered the contents of the diary.

[On April 4, my brother called again, but I could only comfort him but not help him. 】

From this short sentence, it can be seen that this "brother" is very close to and loving towards his younger brother.

Chi Yu lowered his eyes slightly.

In my mind, clues quickly emerged and were automatically arranged and combined together.

In a fit of impulse, he accidentally killed his biological father's younger brother.

An older brother who cares about his family and always wants to help and protect his younger brother.

And...a wife who hates her ex-husband and is full of unwillingness and resentment.

How should Lin Ziyu feel when she heard that her ex-husband was dead and that the murderer was her other son?

Chi Yu turned his head and looked at the table of untouched sumptuous dishes.

The conclusion... is already obvious.

It is now seven o'clock in the evening, and apart from Lin Ziyu and the "brother" in the diary, it is impossible for anyone else to be present in the room.

Fang Yu's previous analysis made sense... Since there was only one fatal wound on Lin Ziyu's body, and there were indeed two blood marks on the blade, the only possibility was that the deceased was not the only one injured.

And... the person who made the first move was most likely Lin Ziyu, who was the deceased.

She was obviously very happy and wanted to celebrate something with her children, but why did she change her mind midway and even turn against her only relative in the world?

What kind of "trouble" has this person who was noted as "uncle" by his "brother" dealt with for the former?

Seeing Chi Yu's serious expression, Xia Yanzhou and others looked at each other in tacit understanding, exchanging the tension in their eyes.

In an increasingly heavy atmosphere.

Chi Yu spoke again: "Yes... I told her."

"I originally thought that my mother would be very happy... Although my father died, you saved my brother. From now on, our family of three will be able to live together..."

"Never apart again."

"but……"

Chi Yu lowered his head and looked at the corpse with empty eyes. "After my mother heard about this, she suddenly went crazy."

"I don't understand, I don't understand why...why...mom...would want to kill me?"

The words fell.

After a while, a sigh came from the other side of the phone.

"You're not greedy enough..." the calm male voice sighed, "Forget it, don't think about it if you don't understand... What are your plans for the future?"

Chi Yu didn't answer but asked: "Brother...how is he doing now?"

"Of course, don't you still believe me?"

The man smiled and said, "Even if it's for my brother's property, I will take good care of him... How about you, do you want to move here too and live with us?"

"Although I'm not a very conscientious person, I won't bully even my own nephew."

"...Okay, please, uncle."
