The soldiers showed the king what they had dug up, and took off the white cloth outside, which turned out to be a bloody dagger inside.

The king read it and said, "This must be the murder weapon."

MW nodded, it seems that something really wanted to frame him, according to the current situation, there are quite a few people who want to frame him, such as the wizard, the queen, the second princess and the little princess.

Everyone had different reasons for wanting to kill him, but among them he could only exclude wizards.

MW took the dagger in his hand, looked at it carefully, and found that it was just an ordinary dagger that couldn't be in the ordinary, and it didn't represent the identity of the murderer.

The king sighed, held his hand and said, "Son, just stay with your father tonight."

MW shook his head and said, "Father, I have to be brave. One thing doesn't end that easily."

The king nodded and told the maid to pack up another room in the castle and take him there.

When he arrived at the newly tidied room, MW searched every corner carefully with his tentacles, and found that there was nothing hidden inside, so he lay down on the bed and went to sleep.

When he was about to go to sleep, he always felt that there was something moving in the corridor outside, which was really scary.

MW thought for a while and still didn't get out of bed, guessing that maybe the murderer wanted to see how brave he was.

In the early morning, MW woke up very early and opened the door to check the corridor. A series of messy bloody footprints appeared in his eyes. He squatted down and measured the size of the footprints. It should be a man's foot, that is to say, a man walked in the hallway last night. Wandering outside the door, but with his current appearance, no one should come to kill him.

After studying the footprints, he went back to the room and picked out a long dress that dragged the floor. To be honest, he didn't like this kind of court dress at all. It was not only too heavy, but also had extremely high requirements on the waist. This time he was going to be strangled to death by a belt.

The man's skeleton is easy to make others suspicious. Fortunately, his Adam's apple did not grow out, otherwise he would definitely be tortured thoroughly by the wizard.

After getting dressed, he called the maid again. The maid who came this time gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity. MW walked to her side and smelled the faint smell of blood on her body after a long time.

MW cleaned his face with the water she brought and asked, "Who did you serve before?"

The maid didn't dare to look him in the eyes, and replied, "I've been doing odd jobs in the kitchen."

"Look into my eyes and speak." MW forced her, and the maid slowly raised her head to meet his eyes.

"Where did you go last night?"

The maid trembled, obviously frightened: "I was sleeping last night."

"There is so much movement in the castle, almost no one can fall asleep, how can you fall asleep?" After finishing speaking, she looked down at her shoes, which had already been changed, "If you are telling the truth, I will find a way to sleep Help you solve it, if you don’t tell the truth, then I have to go to my father.”

As soon as the maid heard this, her hands trembled violently, her legs softened and she knelt on the ground, and the basin fell to the ground with a "boom", which wet the entire floor.

"Princess, last night..." There was panic on her face again, she seemed to be really frightened, "Last night, I heard someone crying in the corridor, I opened the door and went out, and then I heard a "click, click" Sound, when I looked back, there was a skeleton behind me, I could only run as hard as I could."

"Skull?"

The maid nodded: "Yes, it's the skeleton."

MW pondered for a while, "I will keep this matter a secret for you, and ask you a question."

The maid picked up the basin and stood aside, her body trembling uncontrollably.

"Do you know the dead maid?"

The maid nodded, and MW continued: "Is there anything wrong with her lately?"

The maid recalled: "Yes, she has been very happy these days."

"Do you know why?"

The maid replied, "I don't know."

"Okay, you go down first." MW couldn't ask anything from her current state.

Walking to the edge of the window sill and opening the window to look down, there were still a circle of soldiers standing around the corpse, and then looked up to the top floor, as if thinking of something, and ran upstairs with the skirt in hand.

The maid's eyes were fixed on a place, which should be the place where she was killed. When MW arrived at the attic, he was about to take a ladder to climb up, but found that the ladder was also covered in blood.

It seems that this place is where the accident happened. After listening to it for a while, I found that there was a "clicking" sound in the attic, which was very similar to what the maid described.

MW didn't choose to go up because it was too much like a trap. He put the ladder away and ran to the king's bedroom. The king had already gone to court, and now only the queen was standing by the window sill.

The appearance of MW startled her, the queen touched her chest again and again, stepped forward and pulled him to sit on the edge of the bed, and said, "Son, don't scare the queen like this."

After MW nodded, she looked outside mysteriously again, and told the maid in the room to back off, "Don't go outside, you will be found out as a man."

He shook his head and said that he was also very helpless: "But the little bird chose me."

The queen straightened his long hair and said, "Hey, you can go and tell your father, just say you don't want to go."

MW has never had a good impression of the queen, because she turned the original owner into such a man and woman, and he also suffered along with it.

"Son, why are you so disobedient." The queen was a little angry

MW responded to her with a word, turning the queen's face white and purple in anger, and he said: "Mother, you made me like this."

As soon as he finished speaking, the voices of the other two princesses came from outside the door. He stood up and said again: "Why don't I want to be comforted by my queen like my sister and the others when I am hurt, but I can't, because You don't give it."

At this moment, the two princesses had already entered, and Lao Gao pouted when he saw MW, and jumped into the queen's arms like a demonstration.

MW hooked the corner of his mouth, "Who among you three wants to harm me, you should know it well, but I have to remind you, rabbits will bite when they are anxious, let alone I am not a rabbit."

As soon as she said this, the expressions of the three people were all the same, and MW smiled in front of them again, making one's scalp go numb.

After MW turned to leave, he met the messenger. The white bird turned his head away after seeing it. MW knew the reason why it disliked him was because he wanted to roast it and eat it before.

When MW touched its bird's head, he pecked the back of his hand, but in the eyes of others, they had a very good relationship.

The envoy must have also heard what happened yesterday, and came here specially from the post house today. Seeing that she was fine, he was relieved and asked, "Princess, what happened last night?"

When he came, he also heard that everyone in the castle was praising the princess and saying that she was brave.

MW pinched the corner of the bird's mouth tightly to prevent him from biting himself, and replied with a smile: "It's nothing, it won't affect the peace between the two countries."

The envoy nodded in relief. His mission here was for this purpose, and other matters had nothing to do with him.

MW invited with a smile: "The envoy hasn't eaten yet, right?"

The envoy nodded, and the two were going to have dinner together. At this time, two people rushed out from the queen's room. MW looked back and saw that it was his two younger sisters. The two said out of breath, "It's you, you witch."

MW still had a smile on his face, and looked at the two of them suspiciously, although he could almost guess what they wanted to say in his heart: "What? Do the sisters want to eat together too?"

The second princess calmed down her emotions, not wanting to show her bad side in front of the messenger, she said: "You must have killed that maid."

The little princess stood behind her and nodded cooperatively, MW asked back: "What evidence do you have, it shouldn't be good to frame people like this!"

The messenger also looked at her suspiciously. The little princess pushed the second princess and asked her to say that the second princess stepped forward and questioned: "I remember you said before that your beauty is due to drinking the blood of young and beautiful women. Yes, so you must have killed the maid."

MW recalled the words that threatened the two of them a few days ago, and replied: "I said it, but I definitely didn't drink human blood. If it was me, the maid should have died on the day I came."

The second princess was taken aback after hearing this, and thought it made sense, but the little princess didn't think so, and said, "That's because you weren't brave enough, that's why you committed the crime last night."

"No, I've always been very courageous. Last night when there were circles of soldiers around your door, I checked the dead bodies downstairs."

"You..." The little princess stretched out her finger and pointed at him angrily, and MW replied: "Such a big incident happened in the castle, shouldn't you ask sister if she is safe and sound? Come and accuse my sister of being a murderer."

Finally, the little princess was so choked by him that she couldn't even speak, she looked like she was about to cry, MW didn't want to keep entangled with the two of them, so she turned and left.

The king and queen were already preparing the meal. After MW was seated, the two princesses also came. The king kept bringing food to MW at the table, causing the two princesses next to him to suffer from pink eye disease again.

After dinner, MW went to the courtyard to look at it for a while, checking

The coroner also came, and after his inspection was over, MW went over to ask about the situation.

Several soldiers blushed again, and the coroner's answer was the same as his.

MW thought about the attic, checked the corridor several times, and made sure that no one was going up, so he sneaked up to the top floor.

Just as he was setting up the ladder, there were footsteps outside the door. MW was hiding in the pile of debris. After the door was pushed open, a maid cautiously looked left and right, and saw that outside the door was There was really no one left, so I dared to close the door.

MW can see through the gap that she is carrying a basket in her hand, which should contain things.

The maid moved the ladder and climbed up. After she climbed up, the "click click" sound stopped.
