    After Qiao Songyu finished her breakfast, she followed her brother to the yamen.

    As soon as they arrived at the yamen, Li Cheng came in with the murder weapon, and said to Fu Sheng to them:

    "I carefully examined the wound on the corpse, and found that the depth of the wound on the corpse was inconsistent with the blood-stained length of the knife."

    "Ah?" Qiao Songyu glanced suspiciously at the saber in his hand. It was a special knife for a catcher. It was narrow at the top and wide at the bottom.Explain what?"

    "This means that it wasn't this knife that killed Liu Xiang'er." Qiao Zeyu looked at Qiao Songyu with an expression of "you are so stupid".

    Li Cheng made a solemn face, and explained: "And you see, although there is blood on it, it is impossible to get blood on it. After all, the tip of the knife can only enter part of the body, so the blood on the upper part of the knife body should beWhen the knife was inserted, there were bloodstains, but look at this knife, the blood on it is a large irregular piece, which means that it is not the person who was killed with this knife."

    "In other words, is it another knife?" Fu Sheng asked, narrowing his slender eyes with a puzzled expression, "But we didn't see another knife at the scene, only this one."

    "Well, I have studied the wound, and the shape of the wound is consistent with the arrester's saber." Li Cheng nodded, and was about to continue when Qiao Zeyu interrupted:

    "You mean...the one who killed Liu Xiang'er was also a policeman's saber? It's just that it wasn't Thirteen Lady Cheng's one? Right?"

    Li Cheng hesitated, but finally nodded: "Yes."

    Hearing his affirmative answer, Fu Sheng also fell into deep thought.

    The knife used to kill people is the government's knife, which means that even if it is not Thirteen Lady Cheng, the murderer is also from the government, because the government's knives are controlled, and ordinary people generally cannot get them.

    "Then I understand..." Qiao Zeyu pondered.

    "What do you understand?" Qiao Songyu asked curiously.

    Qiao Zeyu looked at his younger brother's confused face, and couldn't help laughing: "So in fact, our previous deduction may be wrong. The murderer may not necessarily be a woman. Think about it, it's from the government. People with strong martial arts, exceptThirteen Lady Cheng, there is no other woman, so it is very likely that the killer was a man."

    "If that's the case, how do we start to investigate?" Qiao Songyu asked, suddenly thought of something, and said with a flash of light, "I know, let's start with that knife! The government's knife must be registered. When and who lost oneLet's find out!"

    "It's easy, we can check it now." Qiao Zeyu said.

    ...

    Pei Rongbai and Ming Kong came out early in the morning, Pei Rongbai was wearing a relatively ordinary uniform, Ming Kong was a very simple gray monk's robe, but Pei Rongbai had an extraordinary demeanor and a handsome appearance, Ming Kong was a monk, and there were guards behind them,So walking on the street is also very eye-catching.

    "Rong Bai, you left your wife early in the morning and came here to go shopping without making a sound or saying anything. What are you doing?" After following Pei Rongbai for a long distance, Ming Kong couldn't help butHe asked, "Although the poor monk doesn't think the road is long, you have to tell the poor monk where we are going, right?"

    Pei Rongbai raised his lips: "We'll be there soon."

    "Huh?" Ming Kong looked at him suspiciously.

    "Arrived!"

    Ming Kong followed Pei Rongbai's eyes and saw that they came to a very dilapidated courtyard in the city. How dilapidated is this courtyard?Several courtyard walls have collapsed, and the gate has lost its vermilion paint and is covered with cobwebs, making it look like a haunted house.

    "This is..." Ming Kong frowned slightly, and looked at Pei Rongbai, "Wenfu?"

    "Yeah." Pei Rongbai nodded and explained, "Wen Yuan's family fell into disrepair within ten years after that incident, and the house was sold to a family surnamed Wang, but it is said that this house is haunted by ghosts, so WangThe surnamed family moved away after not living for long, and then no one lived there for many years, and it became like this."

    "Did you inquire about it from the benefactor of Yang Song?"

    "That's right." Pei Rongbai said, laughed again, turned his head and said to Ming Kong, "This place is too dirty, I'm afraid that Song'er will think it's dirty, and he's timid, so I won't ask him to come with me."

    Ming Kong also laughed: "You..."

    While the two were talking, the gate on the river had been opened and all the spider webs had been removed, so they walked in together.

    The inside is more dilapidated than the outside. The courtyard is full of grass, which is already half the height of a person. There are even wild cats running into the grass when people enter.Under the leadership of Jiang Shang, the two walked through the courtyard and walked to the entrance of the hall. The door of the hall has been half off, barely hanging on the door frame, the color of the paint is completely invisible, and there is even a decayed atmosphereCome on.

    It is estimated that most people will not have the courage to go in after seeing this place.

    The two of them were very courageous, but they were not afraid at all. They walked out of the hall and walked to the same deserted backyard. They just walked around like this. They seemed to find nothing. Anyway, there were tatters everywhere, and there was no valuable furniture.

    "Rongbai!"

    Pei Rongbai turned his head, only to see Ming Kong standing in front of a room, bending over to look into the window.He hurried over and jokingly said, "What? You, a monk, actually made such a wretched gesture..."

    "No, look." Ming Kong stepped aside and asked Pei Rongbai to watch.

    Pei Rongbai walked over: there was a window, it looked very old, but it was closed, only there was an irregular hole in the window paper.He also imitated Ming Kong's movement and bent down, looking inside——

    I don't know if don't look at it. When saw it, was startled, and Pei Rongbai suddenly opened his eyes wide - the room was very clean, at least much cleaner than other rooms, and there was a bed with a quilt on it.There is a dressing table next to it, and there are also items for women's dressing on the dressing table.

    Pei Rongbai couldn't help being a little creepy, he turned his head to look at Ming Kong, raised his eyebrows and said, "Is there someone living here?"

    Ming Kong also raised his eyebrows: "It must be the murderer."

    Pei Rongbai nodded, and didn't know what he was thinking of, so he laughed to himself, and said: "If Song'er was here, he would definitely be scared to death again, maybe he would run into my arms directly..."

    Ming Kong couldn't help laughing with disgust: "Can you stop in moderation? I'm a monk."

    Pei Rongbai smiled brighter: "It is precisely because you are a monk and your heart is like still water, so I said it without any scruples. Otherwise, if I say it like those unmarried wives, I don't know how envious I am."

    Ming Kong laughed loudly, and said: "It makes sense, the poor monk is convinced."
