It has been raining, and the atmosphere is not harmonious.

After a while, everyone gathered in the lobby and began to share the clues they had found.

"Who will speak first?" Wu Qiong asked, seeing that no one had made a sound, he shrugged his shoulders, "Then let's throw bricks and attract jade first."

He lowered his voice, "I found a small clue, I found the body of another waiter."

"Where?" Fu Er asked.

Wu Qiong answered slowly, "On the second floor, in the corner room next to Brother Hu Renhai's room."

"Go, go and see!"

Fu Er stood up, followed by everyone.

In the room, the waiter was lying flat on the bed.Although there was a big hole in his chest and black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, his expression was calm, which showed that he walked very peacefully.

Fu Er pouted, turned around and said, "Brother Jin, I'm sorry to trouble you."

"It's easy to say." Jin Youyi frowned, and hurried forward to do the autopsy.

After a stick of incense.

"It doesn't make sense," Jin Youyi muttered to himself.

"What's wrong?" Fu Er asked.

Jin Youyi explained to everyone, "His death was within two hours to half an hour, but he"

He frowned, and continued, "My grandpa just taught me the same case. The waiter in this store suffered a severe blow to his chest, and his entire chest was punctured. But the cause of his death was not a penetrating wound to his chest, but poisoning. .”

"Poisoned?" Wu Qiong asked curiously.

"Yes, his wound is a heart artery, but his blood flowed out instead of splashing, which shows that the blood was almost solidified when his chest was hit hard." Jin Youyi affirmed, "And he has countless A poisoning reaction, so he died of poisoning, and more than one kind of poison."

He explained, "He had symptoms of exhaustion, his skin and mucous membranes were cherry red, and he was incontinent. Then his lungs were edematous, and his fingertips were bruised. Finally, there was the taste of almonds in his mouth. These are what I can see now, I I don’t know how many kinds there are that can’t be seen.”

Wu Qiong thought for a moment, and asked, "That is to say, he was poisoned by at least three kinds of poisons?"

"Not bad." Jin Youyi confirmed his guess.

"Okay, then let's go to the lobby to check the time." Brother Wu smiled, "I hope everyone will not lie."

In the lobby, the bodies of the two waiters were placed together, and everyone gathered in the middle of the lobby.

Su Mubai unexpectedly spoke first, "No."

Wu Qiong glanced at her with a smile, and said, "Yes, we went back to the room directly after we came last night, and never left the room until someone found the dead person."

He clenched his right fist and struck his left palm. "By the way, the two brothers Hu Renshan and Hu Renhai were still in the lobby when we went upstairs. They should be able to testify."

"That's right." Hu Renshan continued, "I was drinking with my younger brother at that time. The master, the Taoist priest, and the Gongyang girl stayed in Wu Shaoxia's room for a while and then went back to their rooms. The two of my brothers also went back to their room to rest, it should have happened three hours ago. We won't know after that."

"I've been out of the room." Fu Er raised his hand, "I was thirsty three hours ago, and wanted to come to the front desk to ask for some tea. Since I live in the same row as the two Hu brothers, I happened to see them enter the room. I asked the waiter for a pot of tea and went back to the room, and before returning to the room, I saw Brother Jin coming down to the second floor, and he seemed to be asking the waiter for something."

"I'm planning to get up at night to relieve myself, and I'll ask Xiaoer for a pot of wine by the way." Jin Youyi explained, "I have some insomnia, and I can't sleep without wine. I went back to my room after asking Xiaoer for wine."

"I also left the room, it was two and a half hours ago." Bolu said, "I'm a bit hungry, and I plan to go to the back kitchen to find something to eat."

"Why don't you find the waiter?" Wu Qiong asked.

"He wasn't at the front desk at that time. I thought he might have gone there for convenience, so I went to the back kitchen to find something to eat." Bolu explained, "But I didn't see him in the back yard, nor did I see the cook or the shopkeeper."

"So at least the counterfeit waiter wasn't dead three hours ago, but not necessarily two and a half hours ago." Wu Qiong was thoughtful, "And where did the shopkeeper and the cook go? It seems that they haven't seen each other all night." ah."

As soon as the words fell, a figure pushed open the door of the inn and walked in.

When the visitor saw a group of people staring at him in the lobby, he was taken aback, and said, "Huh? Ladies and gentlemen, why are you still awake at this late hour?"

Wu Qiong looked at this man up and down. He was dressed as a standard accountant, about 40 years old, and his whole body was dry.

"Your Excellency?" Ye Qingxuan frowned, and he winked at Wu Qiong.

This man is not simple.

Wu Qiong remained silent.

"Oh, I am the shopkeeper of this inn, and these guests know about it." The shopkeeper smiled kindly, "You guys can't sleep in the middle of the night, do you want me to go to the back kitchen and ask the chef to get up and make a supper for you?"

"Not busy." Wu Qiong shook his head, pointing to the dead body of Xiao Er in the fake shop on the ground, "Shopkeeper, do you know this person?"

The shopkeeper took a closer look and turned pale with shock, "Isn't this the cook in my shop! What's wrong with him?"

Chapter 148 Who Lied?

"Shopkeeper, you said this is the cook in your shop?" Wu Qiong asked curiously.

"Yes." The shopkeeper's face was sad, "He disappeared the day before yesterday, and Xiaoer and I searched for a whole day yesterday but couldn't find him. I didn't expect that."

"Don't be in a hurry to be sad, shopkeeper. I'll tell you some unfortunate news." Wu Qiong sighed, "I'm afraid it was your waiter who died yesterday. You cook peeled his face and pretended to be the waiter. Of course, now he also died."

"Ah?" The shopkeeper opened his mouth, unable to say a word for a long time.

This information is a bit large.

"Don't be surprised first." Wu Qiong asked, "The shopkeeper went out in the middle of the night, what did he do?"

"Oh, this young man misunderstood." The shopkeeper said with a wry smile, "I don't live in the store, but at home. Today, the mother-in-law at home messed up, and I was kicked out, so I had to stay in the store for a night, but met Everyone here."

"Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, which is understandable." Wu Qiong looked at him sympathetically, and then continued, "Then let's talk about the remaining three. Have you left the room within three hours?"

Gongyang Yu shook his head, "I never left the room."

"You're lying." Mao Alan retorted, "I get up in the middle of the night, but I'm afraid of the dark, so I went to Brother Ke to accompany me."

She blushed a little. "When we came back later, we happened to see you going upstairs. That was two and a half hours ago."

Gong Yangyu gave her a deep look, but didn't speak.

"You read it wrong." Her elder brother Ke Bei smiled and said, "When we came back, we didn't see anyone."

Mao Alan pursed his lips, and suddenly said, "Brother Ke, Ke Bei, is from Youming Peak, one of the eight sects of the Demon Sect!"

Jealousy makes people ugly.

Ke Bei glanced at Wu Qiong imperceptibly, and explained, "Yes, I am from Youming Peak, but I am not a murderer. I have never killed anyone in my life."

Those who were killed did not treat them as human beings.
