After rebirth, the system helped me debut as the center

"Wait." Detective He suddenly interrupted Mrs. Ou's statement and looked at her with a puzzled look, "You said that you and the Duke separated after the banquet? Aren't you husband and wife? Why did you separate? Don't you live together?"

Detective He had long found it strange. Mrs. Ou and the Duke were a married couple, and had only been married for a few months. When the Duke had an accident in the morning, Mrs. Ou actually came in from outside.

She and the Duke did not stay together at night.

This is very strange.

Hearing Detective He's question, Mrs. Ou suddenly burst into tears and choked up as she said, "As early as half a month ago, the Duke suddenly stopped letting me live with him and arranged for me to stay in the guest room outside the main building. He said that he was practicing recently and I would disturb his practice if I was here, wuwuwu~"

Mrs. Ou was also very sad about this matter. She couldn't understand why the Duke suddenly changed his attitude and seemed to be disgusted with her, but did not want to divorce her.

Everyone else had different looks on their faces. It was really suspicious that the newlywed wife, who had just been brought home, was sleeping in a separate room after such a short period of time.

Detective He: "Okay, please continue with the timeline."

Mrs. Owl: “After I separated from the Duke, some things kept echoing in my mind, making me toss and turn and unable to sleep well.

When I heard the clock strike midnight, I got up and wanted to see if the Duke was asleep. I wanted to talk to him.

But when I knocked on the Duke's door, there was no response, so I thought the Duke was asleep, so I went back to my room. It was 12:15 in the morning."

Detective He: "Okay, next."

Ning Meigui: "Yesterday's party was too noisy. After dancing at around nine o'clock, I went back to my room. Later, I heard that it was getting quiet outside, and I guessed that the party was almost over, so I went to my father's room to talk to him. It was 10:15 at night.

My father was a little drunk, and we started arguing after just a few words. I didn't want to get entangled with a drunkard, so I wanted to wait until he sobered up the next day to talk to him about business, so I went back to my room. It was 10:35 at night.

Then I fell asleep until the next morning, when the housekeeper woke me up with a scream."

Detective He: "So at 10:35 pm, the Duke was still alive. Did he have any unusual reactions, such as feeling uncomfortable or something like that?"

Ning Meigui frowned, thought about it carefully, and shook her head. "My father's condition was the same as usual when he was drunk. He was irritable and angry. I didn't see any difference from usual. He didn't say that he was feeling unwell."

Detective He: "So you talked for about twenty minutes?"

Ning Meigui: "It should only be fifteen minutes. It will take five minutes to go back and forth. Our castle is very big~"

Detective He: "Then it's your turn, poet."

Poet: "Oh~ my dear detective, last night, I was the most active guest at the whole birthday party. I also wrote several poems for our birthday boy, the Duke. The Duke and the guests were very satisfied and cheered."

Detective He became interested and asked, "Oh? I missed it yesterday. I wonder if Poet Sa could show us your masterpiece so that we can appreciate it."

The poet stood up in an instant and took out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket, which was covered with densely written words.

"what!"

The poet suddenly sang an aria at such a loud volume that everyone present trembled.

Ning Meigui rolled her eyes in annoyance. This poet was really a conspicuous person.

Mrs. Ou and the others were looking intently at the poet, wanting to hear what kind of poem he could write that made him so confident.

"The lights flicker, the stars twinkle,

Today’s birthday boy, you are the focus! "

As soon as the poet sang the first line of the poem, the others looked at each other in surprise.

This poem is truly unique. I’m sure that yesterday’s guests were hearing such a poem for the first time. How could they not be amazed?

"Oh,

My dear Duke,

May you be happy and laugh until you cramp.

Happy birthday, smile till your abs show! ”

Ning Meigui's mouth twitched, and her defense was somewhat broken.

She thought that since her father had been able to support this poet for so long, this poet must have some skills.

I didn't expect that this poet's talent for poetry would be so earth-shattering and moving.

It’s really, um, hard to put into words.

The poet looked at everyone with a proud look on his face.

Everyone: You really have no idea what’s going on.

Detective He looked reluctant, secretly hating himself for not giving him this opportunity, and quickly interrupted, "Very good, then, describe your timeline."

The poet sat back in his seat angrily and returned to the topic, "After I finished writing poems for the Duke, I sat next to the Duke until the end of the banquet, which was about ten o'clock.

At half past ten, I went out to do some personal errands. At eleven o'clock, I finished my errands, returned to my bedroom, washed up, and went to bed. I didn't hear the housekeeper calling me until the morning, and then I joined everyone else. "

Detective He nodded, "So, after the banquet, only Miss Ning Meigui met the Duke, right?"

…………There was a moment of silence.

You looked at me, I looked at you, and no one spoke.

Detective He: "I understand. Then, let's start the first round of evidence collection.

Because the castle is so huge, we will not divide into groups today. Everyone can search for places that interest them. Let’s get started!”

As soon as Detective He finished speaking, everyone stood up and went to see the places that interested them.

The first place Ning Meigui went to was Duke T’s bedroom.

No matter how prominent he was in his lifetime, Duke T was now lying alone on the floor of his bedroom, his face purple and in a rather horrible state.

Ning Meigui went forward to check on Duke T's body. Apart from some bruises on his skin caused by unknown reasons, there were no obvious external injuries.

Ning Meigui began to rummage through the drawers and cabinets in the room. She even lifted up the mattress and checked the bed floor carefully. She found a lot of suspicious things.

When the poet stepped into the Duke's bedroom, he looked at the mess in front of him with some disbelief.

Ning Meigui was standing on a stool, tiptoeing, holding a rope to test the height of the beam.

"Hey, hey, hey, be careful!" Poet Sa hurried forward and helped Ning Meigui hold the stool under her feet.

Seeing Poet Sa, Ning Meigui quickly showed him her discovery, "Poet Sa, look, the gap between the beam that the rope passes through and the roof is actually very small. It is actually very difficult to stand on the stool and throw the rope over."

The poet tried several times with the rope, but he still couldn't throw it over successfully.

"You have five minutes left!" the broadcast voice suddenly sounded.
