The crime scene was bloody? No, to be more precise, it was horrific.

After the three men walked into the room, both Wenxiu Lord and Tom Riddle were stunned by the strong smell of blood in the room.

Even though Barty Crouch, who came in for the second time, was well prepared and held his breath before entering, he still felt uncomfortable as if he was wrapped in thick liquid.

Wenxiu Lord frowned and covered his nose. Tom Riddle beside him reacted quickly and cast a Bubblehead Charm on the three of them.

After breathing in the fresh air, the three of them looked around at the situation at the scene.

Except for the blood that was flowing out of the body and forming a small pool around it, the ground was just as Barty Crouch had said.

It was cleaned up very thoroughly and no information could be obtained except the murderer's footprints.

Shortly after the incident, many people gathered at the door again. The murderer's footprints had long been covered up, and the three people were unable to find the murderer through the footprints.

Wenxiu Lord sighed and looked at the wall.

The blood splatters on the wall were very messy, and it looked like the victim had been chased and stabbed by the murderer before his death.

The first cut was like that, cutting the aorta, and then leaving two eyes.

Observing the direction of the blood splatter, Wenxiu Lord moved slowly, trying to find the origin of the splatter.

After all, he was not a professional, and Wenxiu Lord couldn't understand what was going on after looking at it for a long time.

If expertise isn't enough, magic can make up for it.

Wenxiu Lord waved his wand and cast more than a dozen detection spells with different focuses. The moment Tom Riddle sensed the familiar fluctuations of magic power, he turned around and set his eyes on the silver-haired boy.

Soon, the boy got the feedback of the spell.

In addition to the three of them and the deceased, two other people appeared in the room at the same time.

The two of them must have a very good relationship, as their auras are mixed together.

There will be no more.

Professional things should be done by professionals

Walking to Tom Riddle in frustration, Wenxiu Lord leaned against him and looked at the body lying on the ground.

"Did you find anything here?"

The body fell casually on the ground. As the person had died not long ago, the blood in the body had not yet coagulated and was now bleeding from more than a dozen puncture wounds.

The victim's hands were tied behind his back and his feet were tied with a blood-soaked belt that looked like it was torn from something.

His fat, greasy face showed fear, and his mouth was opened as wide as possible. It was obvious that he must have been terrified to the extreme before he died.

But the surrounding furniture and floor, including the bloodstains, showed no signs of a struggle.

The most terrifying thing is the pair of eye sockets with both eyes dug out.

Literally tears and blood are flowing at this moment.

His eyes, which were almost invisible when he was alive, became bigger after he died.

Pointing to the empty eye sockets covered with cuts, Tom Riddle said without hesitation.

"The murderer must have hated him very much, and especially hated his eyes. After gouging out his eyes, he was still not satisfied and stabbed him several more times."

After hearing his judgment, Wenxiu Lord looked up and looked into Tom Riddle's scarlet eyes. "There is another possibility. It's to frame me."

After exploring the bathroom and bedroom, Barty Crouch walked out of the inner room, holding a torn or cut bed sheet in his hand.

The three of them repeated the clues they had obtained as a whole.

Barty Crouch's solemn expression never relaxed.

"So, the only way out now is this corpse."

After hearing what he said, Wenxiu Lord felt sick at the thought of studying this ugly corpse late at night.

But he was so angry that he couldn't sleep because other people killed people on his territory.

Squatting down, Wenxiu Lord waved his wand and summoned a piece of cake.

The boy turned the cake into a walking stick and poked the corpse with the top of the stick.

Tsk, is it because the meat is too thick or because he came too fast?

The fat meat could even sway as he poked it.

Turning his eyes away with disgust, Wenxiu Lord felt that it was necessary for him to take off Voldemort's mask and wash his eyes after returning.

Who would have thought that just when I turned my sight halfway, I found a clue in the corner of the clothes worn by the corpse.

He calmly continued to poke at the corpse with his cane, pretending to be looking for clues but also looking very disgusted.

But his eyes were fixed on the bloodstain on the hem of his clothes.

This pattern is so familiar.

He had just seen it today on the jewelry that little Barty was wearing.

And the damn ornament was given to him by Wenxiu Lord.

The thoughts in his mind immediately became clear. Wenxiu Lord gritted his teeth and pretended to want to lift up his clothes to see what was inside, thus destroying the already not-so-obvious trace.

After knowing who the murderer was, Wenxiu Lord was so angry that he almost laughed.

If Barty Crouch really found some useful clues, wouldn't he be so angry that he would pass out?

It’s no big deal to criticize the past. The key point is that Barty Crouch will definitely kill his own relatives for the sake of justice.

A Vanishing Charm fell on his cane, and he stood up and walked to Tom Riddle. "Mr. Crouch, did you find anything wrong with the body?"

Staring at the frowning Barty Crouch with an indifferent expression, Vincent Lord thought to himself: Come on, tell me what you have discovered so that I can find the precise target for destruction.

Barty Crouch told all the clues he found on the body without reservation.

Tom Riddle, who just stood beside Wenxiu Lord the whole time and did not make any suggestions, chuckled.

Meeting the two people's gazes, Tom Riddle held Wenxiu Lord's wrist and said, "Nothing, we have almost finished investigating here, and the Aurors will be here tomorrow. Why don't we leave here first?"

A restless finger swept across his palm, and Wenxiu Lord grabbed the finger, sure that Tom Riddle had definitely seen his little movement.

"After all, we are not professionals, and Mr. Crouch is my guest. We have kept you busy until now, and we are not taking good care of you. Why don't you go and have a rest first? I will ask Sebastian to protect you at the scene."

He would definitely instruct Sebastian repeatedly to destroy all the clues that pointed to the truth at the scene.

Barty Crouch stood up and said, "Okay, but how would Lord Family Master like to arrange for the guests in the manor?"

The silver-haired boy put down his formal smile and said, "Heh, Director Crouch knows it very well, doesn't he? The guests invited here are very important. Even I can only let them stay for a maximum of one day."

"But now the identity and number of the murderer are uncertain. If we let them leave..." The hypocritical curve at the corner of Wenxiu Lord's lips was smoothed out by impatience.

"Director Crouch also said it's now. Isn't there still one day tomorrow? If the Aurors can't find any clues all day tomorrow, I think you know very well what kind of panic it will cause. What happened today has already had a negative impact on the Lord family. Why does Mr. Crouch have to embarrass a businessman like me?"

After a short silence, Barty Crouch finally compromised.

Before leaving the room, Wenxiu Lord took one last look at the corpse on the ground, and the curve of his lips was a little cold.
