Prince loves to pick up trash

Such a weird thought flashed through Qi Wenliang's mind, but he also knew it was unreasonable.

So he stopped himself from thinking deeply.

At the same time, Dali Siqing also put forward his own ideas.

Compared with Qi Wenliang, his guess is much more normal.

He felt that when the old prince was discussing the plan with the scholar, the plan was overheard by the murderer.

He asked the old prince: "Where did you discuss this plan? Will the murderer hear it?"

"Impossible!" said the old prince. "In order not to be heard by others, we went to a pavilion at the back of the garden. That place is far away from the murderer's room. No matter how good his ears are, it is impossible for him to hear."

After finishing speaking, the old prince paused, and then said: "No, I can't be sure that he didn't hear him. If he is good at hiding his body, maybe he approached us at some point, and we didn't notice it."

After hearing this, Qi Wenliang asked Dali Temple Minister: "If he heard about this plan, why did he kill the scholar to attract attention?"

Dali Siqing replied: "Perhaps he doesn't want the scholar to continue to carry out the plan, and he is afraid that he and the scholar will run into each other. From his behavior of rushing out to kill, we can know that he is a person with strong martial arts but reckless personality. So he used his best The way to stop the scholar is to kill him."

The old prince disapproved and said, "That's not right. It's not that acquaintances can't enter the General's Mansion at all. Besides, the plan was only briefly discussed at that time, and it was not perfect. If he used that plan, he would definitely be discovered by the people in the General's Mansion."

He tried to put forward his own thoughts: "Could there be more than one murderer. Originally, I planned to trick the child out and let the servant wear a sack to fight in the mountains, and then tell him that he met the kidnapper."

"If the murderer also has helpers, they can help him perfect his plan."

"If he has a helper, why bother to eavesdrop on your plan?" Qi Wenliang waved his hand, greeted everyone to sit down, and dragged out a large piece of paper, "What we discussed just now is based on" The murderer went after the child prodigy" on this basis, but how did the murderer know that he could overhear the relevant plan at the poetry meeting? Before meeting the scholar, my uncle was not sure if anyone would be willing to help him."

"Just like this, let's sort out the possible motives for the murder first, then write them down, and then check them one by one to keep the most likely ones." Qi Wenliang handed the pen to Dali Siqing, "You have rich experience, you come first .”

Dali Siqing was also polite, took the pen and wrote down the words "impulsive killing because of jealousy", and then explained his thoughts.

"I think the first case happened at the poetry club, and the starting point of the matter should also be the poetry club. Maybe he planned to kill a few smart people at the poetry club, but happened to hear the plan and changed his mind to kill the child prodigy."

After finishing speaking, he handed the Bi to Qi Wenliang.

Qi Wenliang wrote down the words "Designed by the Enemy Country" and began to explain.

"I'm not good at investigating cases, but I know a little about politics. Maybe it's a small neighboring country. They heard that the father is ill, so they sent people to disturb the capital."

"I agree that he originally planned to go to the poetry meeting to kill people. First, killing people in the capital caused panic; second, killing scholars will damage the foundation of the Qi Dynasty. At the poetry meeting, he happened to hear the old prince's plan and changed his mind. Because Killing the son of General Zhong will disturb the situation even more."

"But if this is the case, the possibility of the group committing the crime is very high, and there must be smart people in the team. This is contrary to the conjecture of adults."

"Perhaps my guess is more likely. If the murderer was reckless, he should have hacked people to death in the general's mansion instead of bringing them to the moat. But it would be a different matter if he also obeyed orders."

After Qi Zian listened, he stretched out his hand, and Qi Wenliang handed him the pen again.

Qi Zi'an wrote: Eat what you eat and make up for it.

Facing everyone's horrified gazes, he smiled awkwardly and said, "There are loopholes in your guesses."

"If it was impulsive killing, then why didn't more people be killed at the poetry meeting? If it was to disturb the situation, why bother to take the prodigy away and kill him quietly? Shouldn't you find a place with many people? But my guess can explain everything same."

He scratched his head and said, "I don't know much about investigation or politics. I've read a lot of strange things. I heard about a kind of monster by chance before. It seems to be called a tooth. When I was born, I was weak and stupid. Yes, it parasitizes other things most of the time. But the things it parasitizes will die soon, so he has to forge a new body by himself."

"The better the raw material, the better the new body will be. It's the same principle as what you eat to supplement what you eat."

This statement is too absurd, but it coincides with Qi Wenliang's fleeting thought.

And if that's true, the case does make sense.

It went to the poetry meeting to pick people, trying to pick a smart head, but it picked the scholar and took his head away.

Then he got wiser.

It has set its sights on the prodigy's head again.

After having the scholar's head, of course it can come up with a good solution, and its behavior becomes stricter.With its force, it successfully took away the child prodigy.

It intends to refine the prodigy's head, so it will take time.

He didn't kill people on the spot but took people to the moat.

absurd!Yet eerily reasonable.

Dali Temple Minister trembled unconsciously, and grabbed the pen from Qi Zian's hand, "Investigating the case! What ghost stories are you telling! It's not scary at all in broad daylight."

It just so happened that a gust of wind blew through the hall, and the thin paper was lifted, Dali Siqing's hand holding the pen was unsteady, and the pen fell to the table with a clatter.

The pitch-black ink was smeared on the wooden table.

The five people present trembled slightly.

Qi Zi'an's storytelling ability is not that outstanding, but it is the occasion.

Even the worst stories can scare people when the outlandish content meets reality one by one.

Seeing that something was wrong with Qi Wenliang, he quickly corrected him: "Brother Huang, don't be afraid, I'm talking nonsense!"

"And no matter what big monsters come, I can protect you!"

After he said this, the atmosphere finally eased.

Thinking about it again, isn't the kind of monster he mentioned just for adults to coax children?

If you are disobedient, there will be people-eating monsters coming to catch you and the like.

Dali Temple Minister shook his head, picked up the pen and handed it to the little official next to him, "You write too."

The little official shook his head frantically, "No, no, I'm not smart, I can't think of anything."

When the old prince saw that the pen was about to be handed to him again, he refused again and again: "I'm too confused, I don't know anything."

The Minister of Dali Temple dropped his pen, "Have everyone been emboldened?"

"Have you ever seen a monster when you grow up? Where are there any monsters in this world!"

Qi Wenliang also exhaled softly, "There are indeed no monsters in this world, everyone, don't think too much."

"But this case is really difficult to investigate. Now we can only wait for the next victim. According to the adults, the next victim should be a smart person. Try to send someone to protect it. According to me, the next victim should If you are a powerful person, please notify each of them one by one, so that all the prefectures will strengthen their vigilance."

"Okay, let's stop here today, let's go." Dali Siqing said.

Qi Wenliang stood up, and Qi Zian also stood up, "Why don't you consider what I said?"

Qi Wenliang thought for a while, and said to the petty official: "Then trouble you to look through the recent file and see if there is any case in which the body is missing."

If you can make a sharp knife, you must have a good hand.

The petty official looked at Dali Siqing, but Dali Siqing didn't refute.

After leaving the gate of Dali Temple, Qi Zi'an relied on Qi Wenliang and said, "I'll live with Brother Huang for a few days, I will protect you."

"You think, no matter what kind of conjecture it is, you are the most dangerous."

"Brother Huang is smart and distinguished." He has a good figure!

But Qi Wenliang said: "You go to the palace first. Tell the father about the part I guessed, and let him strengthen the security of the palace."

"As for me, I have to go back to the East Palace first. I have a new idea for the old case my father gave me before."
