Gu Qi's case-solving manuscript

Shocked by this, everyone went back to the county office together before they had time to react. Together with Zhao Ming and the others, they all gathered in Cui'er's dormitory.

Fortunately, Xing'er found out in time that Tweety'er is fine except for being unconscious due to shortness of breath. She just needs a good night's rest and will wake up tomorrow morning.

"Master Xu..."

Mrs. Zhong sat aside, with a particularly worried expression on her face. She looked at Cui'er, then at Xu Yihua, and hesitated to speak.

Xu Yihua hurriedly said: "Madam Zhong has something to say, please tell me."

"Tweety..." Mrs. Zhong sighed, "I didn't expect to alarm so many people. This was originally just a family matter..."

"Mrs. Zhong." Xu Yihua said in a deep voice, "Now this is not an internal matter of the mansion. The students suspect that Tweety has a lot to do with the deaths of Ye Gusong and Shi Bin."

"No." Mrs. Zhong shook her head and said softly, "Tweety has nothing to do with this matter."

"Why is Madam so sure?" Gu Qi suddenly asked, "Why do you think that Tweety has nothing to do with this matter? When Ye Gusong died, Tweety did have time to commit crimes. Although she claimed that she was preparing dinner, But there is no witness."

Mrs. Zhong frowned slightly, and stretched out her hand to tuck the corner of the quilt for Tweety: "Tweety has been with me for many years, she is not such a person."

"Madam, have you ever known this jade pendant?" Gu Qi took out the butterfly jade pendant from his bosom, and showed it to Madam Zhong.

The jade pendant shook a few times in the air, attracting everyone's attention. Gu Qi quickly glanced around, and secretly recorded the facial expressions and reactions of the people present.

"I don't know." Mrs. Zhong's eyes flickered a few times, and then she looked away, "I haven't seen it before."

Gu Qi forcefully asked: "Madam, have you really never met?"

Mrs. Zhong seemed a little flustered by the question, a few unnatural expressions flashed across her face, she stood up suddenly and said: "It's late, I'm going to rest."

"Since Cui'er won't be able to wake up until tomorrow morning, why don't we discuss this matter tomorrow morning?" Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene was a bit cold, Master Zhong hurriedly calmed down, "Besides, it's almost five o'clock now, if you don't rest, how will you investigate the case tomorrow? Gu Both Qi and Young Master Xu will go back to rest, and we will meet here tomorrow morning."

After Zhong Benli said that, Gu Qi didn't plan to ask any more questions, but he felt that not only Cui'er knew something, but Mrs. Zhong might also be hiding something.

Silent all night.

Gu Qi had something in his heart, tossed and turned for a long time in the middle of the night, and didn't fall asleep until it was dawn.

When he woke up again, it was almost Chen's hour, and there was still a lot of humidity in the morning air, so Gu Qi couldn't help but put on a small coat.

After washing his face, Gu Qi regained consciousness a lot, took out a few copper coins from the pillow, and then opened the door latch to go out to buy some steamed buns.

But when Gu Qi opened the door, he found a person standing outside.

This person was dressed in a blue shirt, his hair was tied high with a headband, and two streamers hung behind him, half leaning against the wall. He had a handsome face and a good temperament. Just standing there was a pleasing beauty painting.

"Xu Yihua?" Gu Qi was a little surprised.

"Huh?" Xu Yihua woke up from his doze when he heard the movement, "Are you awake?"

Gu Qi glanced at Xu Yihua up and down, quite puzzled: "What are you doing here?"

Xu Yihua coughed in embarrassment: "You seem to have discovered something last night."

Gu Qi didn't say he found it, nor did he say he didn't find it: "So you're waiting here to find out?"

"Yeah." Xu Yihua nodded, "But I see that your words were quite cautious last night, maybe you wanted to talk about this in private."

Gu Qi turned around and locked the door: "Talk while walking."

The door was locked, and the two went to the street side by side. Gu Qi bought two big buns and stuffed one of them into Xu Yihua's hand: "Didn't eat this morning."

"Hmm..." Xu Yihua took a bite out of the bun, "What did you find out last night?"

Gu Qi still didn't answer, he turned his face and asked, "Why do you think Tweety hanged herself?"

Xu Yihua thought for a while and said: "According to the previous speculation, Tweety is suspected of being the murderer, so now she committed suicide in fear of crime."

Fear of committing suicide?

Did Tweety really commit suicide in fear of crime? The murder weapon and some necessary evidence have not been found. Is it really necessary to commit suicide in fear of crime at this time?

Gu Qi was thinking about it, when suddenly out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a evasive figure waving at him, looking carefully, only to find that it was Zhao Dagou who was letting him go.

With a twitch in his heart, Gu Qi remembered what he asked Zhao Dagou to do yesterday. Could it be that the carriage and the murder weapon, the wire, were found?

"Come with me." Gu Qi greeted Xu Yihua and walked towards the side of the street.

"Zhao Dagou, did you find something?" Gu Qi asked.

Zhao Dagou smiled triumphantly, and took out the wire from his arms: "Of course I found it."

Xu Yihua took the iron wire from the side and inspected it carefully: "This iron wire is a little thinner than I imagined, just like silk thread, no wonder it is not easy to be noticed."

Gu Qi asked again: "Where is the carriage now?"

"The carriage is in a forest outside the county seat, but the horse is dead, only the carriage is still there, and the wire is also tied to the carriage." Zhao Dagou said, "We dare not do anything else, so we just took the wire and came back first. Deal with you."

"Very good." Gu Qidao, "You take us there now."

Xu Yihua hurriedly said: "Then what about Cui'er?"

Gu Qi thought for a while, and said: "Zhao Dagou, you need to send someone to guard the carriage for a while, I will go there later."

"It doesn't matter." Zhao Dagou waved his hand indifferently, "You paid the money, of course the brothers have to do things well."

A smile appeared on Gu Qi's face: "Thank you."

County government office, back hall.

Before Gu Qi and Xu Yihua arrived, they saw Xing'er anxiously walking back and forth at the door of the back hall, looking towards the way they came from time to time.

"Master Xu! Butou Gu!" Seeing them coming, Xing'er was overjoyed, and hurriedly greeted them, "You guys are here."

"Don't panic." Xu Yihua said gently, "Miss Cui'er has woken up?"

Xing'er nodded, but there was no joy on her face, instead she became even more anxious: "But Sister Cui'er refused to say anything, only said to wait for you to come over."

"So, hurry up and take us there."

Xing'er nodded hurriedly, and brought the two of them into the back hall, only to see Mrs. Zhong and his wife, Cui'er and Zhao Ming sitting inside, the four of them were standing or sitting, with different expressions on their faces.

After greeting everyone present, Xu Yihua asked, "Miss Cui Er, listen to Xing Er, do you have something to say to us?"

"Yes." Tweety stood up, took a deep breath and said, "I have something to say."

Gu Qi found that compared to yesterday's panic, today's Tweety seemed much calmer, and there was even some determination on her face, as if she had made up her mind.

"What do you want to say?" Gu Qi narrowed his eyes.

Tweety said: "The people who killed Ye Gusong and Shi Bin..."

Gu Qi frowned, and the bad premonition that had arisen in his heart seemed to be coming true.

"...It was me." Tweety said indifferently, "I was the murderer, and I killed them all."

Suddenly hearing this, everyone at the scene seemed a little overwhelmed, Xing'er and Zhao Ming stood there staring at her in a daze.

"Tweety!" Mrs. Zhong shouted sharply, "Don't talk nonsense!"

"Ma'am, this servant is not talking nonsense." Cui'er glanced at Mrs. Zhong, then looked back at Xu Yihua, "I killed the man."

When the previous speculation became a reality, Xu Yihua was a little surprised.He and Gu Qi had the opposite opinion. Yesterday, Gu Qi speculated that Tweety Er might be the murderer, but he opposed it. So now it seems that Tweety Er is really the murderer?

"You said you were the murderer?" Gu Qi rolled up his sleeves and looked at Tweety carefully, "Then let me ask you, why did you kill them?"

"Because they... raped Xiaodie!" Tweety gritted her teeth.

Gu Qi asked again: "What is your relationship with Xiaodie? Are you avenging the dead Xiaodie now?"

"That's right." Tweety raised her head and stared at Gu Qi, "Xiaodie is me...my sister, she was defiled by these two beasts, of course I won't let them go!"

Gu Qi found that when she said these words, there was no anger, no hatred, no regrets in Tweety's eyes, only calm and indifferent, she didn't seem to have too much emotion about her sister being defiled fluctuate, and...

"Miss Xiaodie has no father and no mother. She is an orphan. She has lived alone since she was a child. How could she suddenly have an older sister?" Gu Qining stared at Cui'er, which was as hot as a flame, calming Cui'er. The mask almost broke.

"I... I only found out about this younger sister later on." Tweety insisted.

"Okay, let's count you as sisters." Gu Qidao, "Then how did you kill Ye Gusong, and how did you kill Shi Bin?"

"That afternoon, I prepared the meal as fast as I could, and then sneaked into Ye Gusong's room pretending to ask Ye Gusong for dinner, cut off his head with a long sword, and locked the door behind me. , climbed out of the window. Later, when you pushed the door and entered, I secretly closed the window, pretending that this was a secret room, so that you would not suspect me. Later, I asked Shi Bin to be in the east of the city. We met by the river, because I coveted my appearance, so I was unprepared for me, and I easily pushed him into the river and drowned." Tweety breathed a sigh of relief after saying this, looked at Zhong Ben and said, "Master, madam , It’s my fault, I killed them, you arrest me.”

"Joke." Gu Qi snorted coldly, "Is this your modus operandi?"

Xu Yihua also said: "Miss Cui'er, you said that you cut off Ye Gusong's head with a long sword, but according to my autopsy results and Gu Qi's deduction, this flat wound was not caused by a long sword. It was cut with an extremely thin wire. Besides, you are a woman and you don’t know martial arts. How can you cut off the opponent’s entire head with such great strength? If you really killed the person, you will be splashed with blood Where are the clothes? Where is your murder weapon now?"

Tweet was stunned, with a flustered expression on her face, she forced herself to calm down and said, "Master Xu, I really killed the man."

Xu Yihua shook his head and said, "The murderer wasn't you at all."

"I killed people... really I did!" Cui'er suddenly knelt down with a plop, hugged Zhong Benli's thigh and begged bitterly, "Master, please, take me in, I am the murderer ah……"

I saw Gu Qi sneered, but his face was full of anger. He couldn't express his current mood. There were shock, anger, disbelief, and deep disappointment: "Tweety, you still want to replace the real murderer. Are you cheating the world!"
