The real murderer?

Only then did Zhao Ming regain his senses: "Tui'er...isn't she the murderer?"

Xu Yihua shook his head and said: "Of course Tweety is not the murderer, she just...knows the murderer and wants to plead guilty for the murderer."

"Who is the murderer?" Zhao Ming asked.

Gu Qi paused, then raised his head to look at the crowd. He glanced at the several people present. For some reason, he couldn't find the courage to look at him: "Among the people at the scene, who is worthy of Tweety's desperate protection?" of?"

The only one worthy of Tweety's protection, even risking her own life, is...

The eyes of Zhao Ming and Xing'er were frozen among the crowd.

"Could it be..." Zhao Ming couldn't believe it.

Gu Qi didn't speak, just remained silent, but the real answer had already appeared in everyone's heart, and all the people couldn't help but look up at that person.

"No! How is this possible!" Zhao Ming shook his head like a rattle.

The only people worthy of Tweety's life to protect are Mrs. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong.

But neither of these two people would be the object of Zhao Ming's doubts. He even thought that Ye Gusong and Shi Bin were killed by Xu Yihua's thief calling "Stop the thief", but he never thought that one day the murderer will be them.

"So that's how it is." What Xu Yihua was thinking in his heart was different from that of everyone at the scene, he nodded suddenly, and finally figured out some details that could not be deduced in his mind.

"The murderer is not Madam!" Tweety blurted out.

"It seems that you know who the murderer is." Gu Qi turned around and sneered.

Tweety showed regret on her face, she hurriedly lowered her head.

"As early as when you invited Xu Yihua to Qiuxing County for a visit, I'm afraid you were starting your own plan." Gu Qi stared at him firmly, his scorching eyes almost penetrated all the thoughts of the man, "Master Zhong!"

Zhong Benli took a deep look at Gu Qi, but did not speak.

"Gu Qi, you must have made a mistake..." Zhao Ming looked at Gu Qi and then at Zhong Benli. He was so shocked that he couldn't bear the fact.

"Three years ago." Gu Qi lowered his voice, "Ye Gusong passed by Qiuxing County and rescued an old man who was robbed of his money bag. Later, he met a girl at the old man's home, Xiaodie. Girl. At the first sight, Ye Gusong was fascinated by it, but Xiaodie didn't know you for a long time at that time, so she rejected Ye Gusong's courtship. On a rainy night one month later, I got drunk Ye Gusong finally couldn't restrain the love in his heart, and disregarded Xiaodie's resistance, and took her forcibly. Miss Xiaodie resisted desperately, and even bit a deep tooth mark on Ye Gusong's shoulder, but her body As a woman, how can she resist a grown man with martial arts..."

Following Gu Qi's narration, the calm expression on Zhong Benli's face could no longer be disguised. Although he was still holding on, his twitching facial muscles and red eyes revealed his ups and downs.

"But I never expected that this was the beginning of Xiaodie's nightmare. Just after she was forcibly possessed, Shi Bin, Ye Gusong's new friend, also raped her." Gu Qi's voice seemed a little depressed, "The first Xiaodie, who woke up the next day, chose to hang herself, at this time, Ye Gusong, who regretted so much, chose to leave here, but Shi Bin stayed and became a policeman."

"But, what does this have to do with Mr. Zhong?" Zhao Ming didn't understand.

"The reason why the murderer is not Madam is because Madam has no motive for killing." Xu Yihua's voice came from behind Gu Qi, "Because Xiaodie is Master Zhong's daughter, the illegitimate child left by Master Zhong 17 years ago. female."

"What?!" Zhao Ming and Xing'er's eyes widened in surprise.

"Master Zhong, do you still know this jade pendant?" Xu Yihua took out the butterfly jade pendant from his bosom, which was given to him by Gu Qi in the morning, and now he understood why Gu Qi was so abnormal last night, it turned out that he I knew all this a long time ago, and I knew who the murderer was.

Zhong Benli raised his eyes and glanced at the jade pendant. The familiar butterfly jade pendant shook in the air a few times, and then gradually stopped moving.

The emerald green jade pendant has a butterfly with wings ready to fly engraved on the front, and only a name is lightly engraved on the back. It is no different from the thousands of ordinary jade pendants at this time, but Zhong Benli can recognize it at a glance. Recognize it, this is the jade pendant he wears by his side every day.Because the concentric tassels under the jade pendant were woven by Xiaodie herself, and Xiaodie gave it to him on his birthday.

He has to take it out more than a dozen times every day, and he doesn't tire of it. He is familiar with every part of this jade pendant, so how could he not know it.

"I know it." Zhong Benli said, "This is my jade pendant."

"Very good." Gu Qiqi told Xu Yihua to put away the jade pendant, "This was found near the scene of the second victim's crime, Mr. Zhong, do you have anything else to say?"

Tweety said anxiously: "Maybe it was just an adult who accidentally dropped it!"

"On the day Ye Gusong was killed, my lord was obviously with Mr. Xu, so he didn't have time to kill people." Zhao Mingdao, "Gu Qi, what you said before was just your speculation. How do you explain this?"

"Explanation? There is no need to explain this at all." Gu Qi turned around, "Everyone come with me to the guest room where Ye Gusong was killed."

Although everyone now basically believes that Zhong Benli killed the person, they are still struggling in their hearts, unwilling to believe that this is the truth, so they all followed Gu Qi to the guest room to see if he was want to say something.

"Xu Yihua, let's talk about this." Gu Qi rubbed his temples a little tiredly, and sat down on a chair beside him.

Xu Yihua understands that Gu Qixin is also very uncomfortable inside. He is the one who has the least relationship with Zhong Benli among this group of people, and naturally he doesn't have much emotion, so it is better for him to talk about some things, at least in everyone's heart. Easy to accept.

"At that time, when Ye Gusong was killed, the doors and windows were locked, so we all fell into a strange circle. How did the murderer mysteriously disappear in the secret room after killing someone and locking the doors and windows?"

"That's right." Zhao Ming yelled, "A big living person can't be hidden in the house, so he'll disappear if he doesn't see it."

"Actually, the doors and windows were not locked by the murderer at all, but by Ye Gusong himself."

"Impossible, this is Ye Gusong cutting off his own head, how is it possible, didn't you say..." Zhao Ming almost stopped talking, he glanced at Zhong Benli subconsciously, then turned his face away quickly .

"Captain Zhao." Xu Yihua didn't answer Zhao Ming's doubts, but instead asked, "You were also at the scene after lunch on the day of the incident. Do you still remember how Ye Gusong returned to the room?"

"The day the crime happened?" Hearing that Zhao Ming gradually fell into memory, trying to recall the scene of that day, he murmured, "I remember I was on duty outside the door that day, and then I heard Ye Gusong say that he was a little tired and wanted to To go back to the room to rest, he also asked Tweety where is the guest room, and if he could take him there. Later, Mr. Zhong said that it happened that everyone had finished their meal, so why not visit the county government together, and send Ye Gusong to the guest room by the way... ..."

"That's right, it was indeed like this at the time." Xing'er said, "Everyone was there at the time, when passing by the guest room, the master let Ye Gusong go in to rest, and then everyone left, there was nothing wrong with it. "

But Xu Yihua shook his head and said: "No, there is something wrong, you should think about it carefully."

Everyone looked around in a daze, unable to think of anything wrong.

Gu Qi raised his eyelids and looked at Zhong Benli firmly: "That day, the last person who came into contact with Ye Gusong was Mr. Zhong Benli."

"So what, Ye Gusong was clearly still alive at that time." Zhao Ming retorted.

"Only when Mr. Zhong is the last person to contact Ye Gusong, can he carry out his own murder plan, which he has carefully arranged for half a year."

"Murder plan?" Xing'er frowned, "What murder plan?"

"It's the murder plan." Xu Yihua narrowed his eyes slightly, "This room is not too big, and there are only a few items in it, the bed next to the wall, the round wooden table next to the window, and the other side is also There is nothing else besides the wardrobe next to the wall. The bed, the door, the window, and that air hole create a clean space without any obstructions."

Following Xu Yihua's movements, everyone turned to look at the air holes on the wall.

The air hole is on the upper left of the head of the bed, and the door is on the lower left of the head of the bed. There is indeed no obstacle in the movable area of ​​the door, window, and bed, but what does this mean?

"When Ye Gusong was killed, Gu Qi and I never understood what kind of weapon could cause such a wound. I didn't know until Gu Qi told me yesterday that the murder weapon was actually a piece of iron wire. Thin wire."

"Iron wire?" Zhao Ming was puzzled.

"It's the wire." Looking at Zhong Benli's indifferent face, Gu Qi felt that he couldn't keep silent, "Three years ago, after Xiaodie committed suicide, Mr. Zhong got some truth from other people's mouths, and thus Knowing that one of the murderers who raped Xiaodie back then was Ye Gusong. Half a year ago, he finally got Ye Gusong's whereabouts, so he asked Xu Yihua to come to the house to tell."

Gu Qi took a deep breath and stood up straight: "First of all, he gave Ye Gusong medicine. The mixture of white phoenix grass and ignited Buddha skin can make the victim's skin paralyzed and his reaction slow and unconscious. Then he sent Ye Gusong When Lone Pine returned to the guest room, he put the wire that had been prepared in a circle around the neck of the other party, and one end of the wire passed through the air hole and connected to the carriage parked there in the back alley. At that time, Ye Gusong, who had no idea that he was about to die, locked the doors and windows, lay down on the bed, and fell into a deep sleep."

"When the time comes, the frenzied horse will pull the carriage and run crazily. The strong force will cut off Ye Gusong's head in an instant, and the wire will be pulled out by the carriage through the air hole. Together with the carriage, Disappear." Gu Qiyuan tightly pinched his fingers in his sleeves, but his eyes were fixed on Zhong Benli.

"I have a question." Zhao Ming gritted his teeth and said, "If Mr. Zhong is really the murderer, then when he put the wire on Ye Gusong's neck, why didn't anyone notice such a big move?"
