Suspect in Jinling

This woman spoke resolutely and resolutely, and she refused to give in to her husband. Kuang Jian couldn't help but look at her a few more times: Pang Zhengying didn't tell his grown-up son beforehand, but he told his wife, the hostess of the Pang Mansion. Although young, his status in the mansion should not be underestimated.

Kuang Jian asked: "Because I'm afraid of leaking the news, so there should not be many people who know about the arrangement of Qianhu?"

Qin: "Yes."

Kuang Jian: "Then who else knows about this defense?"

Qin's: "Fu Jun, Chu Ji, I...and Jin Yiwei who participated in this matter."

Qiu Weng interjected cautiously: "Madam, this old slave also knows about it."

Qin said "Oh": "Yes, Qiu Weng also knew about it, he was the one who found the note on the door."

Kuang Jian turned his gaze to Qiu Weng who had no chance to speak: "Are you literate?"

Qiu Weng straightened his back a little awkwardly: "I don't know how to write, but I still know something."

Qin said indifferently: "Qiu Weng is humble. He supervised the construction of this building and worked for the Pang Mansion. He has never made any mistakes."

Seeing that the conversation was going further and further away, Lord Ruan couldn't help but interjected: "After talking so much, what is going on with the shoe prints outside the window?"

Kuang Jian said: "If it wasn't left by Chu Qianhu, then it was left by the murderer."

Pang Yuan: "But Chu Qianhu said that his guards didn't see anyone passing through the window."

Kuang Jian: "It's just a shoe print. There is no need for the murderer to step on it. Just come to this compartment and take a shoe to make it up." After finishing speaking, he asked, "Ma'am, what happened in this compartment after the incident happened last night?" Has anyone been here?"

"The meaning of Xiao Kuang's arrest is that anyone with prior knowledge has come here?" Seeing that Kuang Jian's words brought the whole case into another possibility, Qin grasped the key point and recalled with a frown, "... At that time, there was a mess of people, and many people came in... If the murderer had swaggered into the crowd, it would not be difficult to come here and make a footprint..."

Master Ruan heard the implication and said in shock: "Captain Xiao Kuang, you mean the Taiping Sect assassinated from inside the building?"

Chu Ji also hesitated: "But is that person so bold?... It's dark and windy outside so it's easier for him to hide his whereabouts. Last night, the building was brightly lit. How can he get in?"

Kuang Jian: "Perhaps we all got one thing wrong: Why must the murderer who killed Mr. Pang be the Taiping Sect's 'Ghost Seeing Sorrow'? The Taiping Sect's threatening letter did not indicate the date. The Taiping Sect did it last night. It's just the Zhenfu Secretary's speculation about the assassin's behavior."

"This..." Master Ruan stopped suddenly, "It wasn't the Taiping Sect who committed the murder...then who else..."

Kuang Jian turned to Chu Ji and asked, "Since that 'Ghost Seeing Sorrow' committed crimes in Jinling and succeeded many times, he must be a master?"

Chu Ji: "Naturally. In the few murder cases in Jinling, his strikes were crisp and sharp, and he sealed his throat with one blade. No one can do it without a master."

Kuang Jian spread his hands: "Master Pang's fatal injury is in the back of the head, it is the result of multiple beatings, the method of killing is very different from that of 'Ghost Seeing Sorrow'."

Such a turning point was too surprising. Everyone looked at Kuang Jian in surprise, but Chu Ji silently cast his gaze at him, and there was a faint light in the depths of his pupils.

Kuang Jian felt the attention, and looked back at him. This is probably the reason why Chu Ji didn't search the whole city, but blocked the Pang Mansion, and invited himself to the Pang Mansion: He and his subordinates carefully planned the roundup for several days In the end, Mr. Pang still died unexpectedly. Even if he found out the strangeness of the wound at this time, it was inconvenient to say it bluntly. After all, the wife and so many subordinates were insiders. This is not strong evidence. If it is forcibly insisted on In the eyes of others, what Ghost Seeing Sorrow has done is just a kind of incompetent prevarication.

The Qin family pondered for a moment, then questioned: "Impossible... If it wasn't for a murderous assassin, who would kill someone and not run away, but clean up the scene leisurely?"

Kuang Jian: "But if it's really the Taiping sect, why did he bother to put Mr. Pang in a decent pose?"

Pang Yuan's tone was strange: "You said that pose, or the murderer's kindness?"

Kuang Jian didn't answer Young Master Pang's words, but said: "Premeditated murder, most of them will bring their own murder weapon. The simplest crime tool is a knife. If it is just to take someone's life, it is most convenient to stab the knife in the back of the heart or the back of the neck. It saves effort, but the murderer chose the bloody way of killing Mr. Pang on the back of the head with a heavy object like a madman."

Pang Yuan asked: "You mean the murderer suddenly went berserk and committed the crime?"

Kuang Jian twisted her neck: "No, people who suddenly go crazy will leave many loopholes, at least they can't think of such a meticulous way to deal with the aftermath."

Pang Yuan: "Then this person..."

Kuang Jian: "This person should have a deep grudge against Mr. Pang. It may not be a deep hatred, but there must be a unilateral and long-term dissatisfaction. He is probably a low-ranking person. He has been planning for a long time for this, and found an opportunity to take Mr. Pang together. After killing him, in order to vent his dissatisfaction, he repeatedly beat Master Pang on the back of the head and insulted his body, and when the remaining anger was gone, he calmly cleaned up the scene and put Master Pang's body back on the table."

Listening to Kuang Jian's retelling, the five people in the room imagined this bloody and dark scene in their minds, and couldn't help but gasped.

"And Lord Pang must be familiar with this person." Kuang Jian looked at everyone's expressions and said slowly, "According to what Chu Qianhu said, Master Pang knew that he was in danger last night, so he must be more vigilant than usual. How good the murderer is, it takes a process from pulling out the drawer to committing the crime, but during this whole stage, Mr. Pang didn't call for help, and he didn't fight back. It can be seen that the assailant was not only very familiar with Mr. Pang, but even after he pulled out the drawer Never imagined that he would murder himself."

The five people in the room looked at each other, and Pang Yuan had a bad feeling for a moment: "The inferior, my father is familiar with him, and he is in the building...Xiao Kuang, you suspect us?"

Those who stayed on the third floor last night were the deceased's wife, son, subordinates, servants, and a colleague who was one level shorter than him and needed to offer bribes to him, all of which fit his description.

Kuang Jian nodded calmly, almost confidently: "Yes, everyone who appeared on the third floor at that time is suspicious."
