"What? Zhixun, do you know who the murderer is? "
Hearing Di Zhixun say "I'm pregnant", Sun Zifan was both surprised and excited.
He had always wanted to help his father solve the case!
It was just that this guy was too agitated, causing his voice to be a little too loud, causing the surrounding people to hear him and cast angry gazes in his direction.
"Damn it! Kid, keep your voice down! "
Feeling the malicious gazes of the surrounding people, Li Tai panicked and hurriedly covered Sun Zifan's mouth.
Suddenly, Li Tai caught a glimpse of Du E, who was sitting high up on the spell altar. At this moment, he suddenly turned his gaze towards them. Li Tai was instantly alarmed. He hurriedly lowered his head and whispered to the few people around him, "Let's go quickly! That monk Du E seems to have noticed us! "
"No way! He's so far away from us. How could he have heard us? "
Di Zhixun's heart tightened. He subconsciously wanted to look up at the altar, but Li Tai stopped him. "Don't look up. Let's get out of the crowd!"
Seeing Li Tai's solemn expression, they all nodded. Then, with Yuchi Bao Lin taking the lead, the four of them finally squeezed out of the crowd after much effort.
"Phew! Fortunately, that Du E didn't force us to stay! "
When they arrived at a herbal tea stall on the east side of the Daxing Shan Temple, Li Tai panted and rejoiced.
"Qingque, you're the King of Wei. Are you afraid of a monk?"
Sun Zifan felt that Li Tai was making a fuss over nothing and couldn't help but complain.
Li Tai said faintly, "Kid, don't you see how fanatical those people are looking at Du E? If Du E wanted to keep us here, he only needed to give the order. Those people wouldn't care whether I'm the King of Wei or not. They would definitely tie us up directly!"
"You … you're the King of Wei?"
At this moment, the surprised voice of a young girl came from behind them. Li Tai and the others turned to look. Who else could it be but the little girl who had exposed the scam of the Calamity Avoiding Levitation Technique?
"Little girl, I've already given you the money. We should be considered even now, right? Why are you here again? "
Li Tai frowned and said with an ugly expression.
The young lady was not frightened by the ferocious look on Li Tai's face. Instead, she asked seriously, "Are you really Prince Wei?"
Li Tai said exasperatedly, "No! They're just talking nonsense! "
"Oh!"
The little girl was a little disappointed. Then, she said unhappily, "I knew it. How could you be the King of Wei? Legend has it that the King of Wei is much fatter than you!"
After saying that, the little girl turned around and left.
Li Tai opened his mouth. At this moment, he really did not know whether to cry or laugh. On the one hand, the little girl's words proved that his weight loss during last year's military training was very effective. On the other hand, the little girl's subtext was saying that he was fat in the past. He was still himself in the past. How could he be happy when others said that?
"Little girl, what's your name?"
Suddenly, Li Tai shouted at the little girl's back.
The little girl stopped in her tracks. She stood there and thought for a moment. Perhaps it was because Li Tai had given her a hundred strings of coins. Finally, she replied, "My name is Chen Shuozhen! Remember to call me if there's such a good thing next time! "
After saying that, she waved the hundred tang yuan in her hand and said to Li Tai behind her.
"Chen Shuozhen!"
Li Tai muttered these three words under his breath.
Di Zhixun could not help but laugh evilly. "Hey! Qingque, you're not interested in this little girl, are you? "
In ancient times, people got married early. They got engaged at the age of seven or eight and got married at the age of eleven or twelve. That was why Di Zhixun was joking like this.
"Get lost! A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory! "
Li Tai's little face darkened. He could not help but say angrily, "You just said that you know who the murderer is. Why don't you tell us now?"
"That's right! Zhixun, don't keep us in suspense. Tell us quickly! "
Sun Zifan could not wait to echo.
Di Zhixun put away his smile and said seriously, "There are too many people in this place. If someone overhears us, we'll be in trouble. Qingque, Zifan, I want to go to the Supreme Court and check Jin Wanfu's body to confirm my guess. Then I'll tell you who the murderer is!"
Although Sun Zifan was anxious to know the result, he knew that Di Zhixun was right. So he suppressed his curiosity and nodded. "I'm familiar with the Supreme Court. I'll take you to my father. As for whether he'll let you check the body, it's hard to say!"
"Don't worry. I'll persuade Sun Shaoqing!"
Di Zhixun said confidently.
"Good! There's no time to lose. Let's go to the Supreme Court now! "
Sun Zifan nodded and said. Then he led the crowd to the Supreme Court in the west.
…
"What? You know Jin Wanfu's murderer? "
In the Supreme Court.
Sun Fujia, Dai Zhou, and Liu Dewei had just returned to the Supreme Court after the morning court when they saw four young men standing at the door. They stepped forward and saw that they were all familiar faces — a group of "second generation officials"! After asking the purpose of their visit, Sun Fujia frowned and said suspiciously.
"I'm 90% sure that I know the real murderer. The remaining 10% can only be confirmed after I check Jin Wanfu's body. So I hope that Minister Liu and the two Shaoqing can make it convenient for me to check the body!"
Di Zhixun cupped his hands and said with a serious face.
Liu Dewei, Dai Zhou, and Sun Fujia were shocked speechless. Jin Wanfu's case had been bothering them recently. But now a group of teenagers suddenly came to the Supreme Court and claimed that they knew who the murderer was. If Di Zhixun didn't look serious and didn't seem to be joking, Liu Dewei would have asked the yamen runners to drive them away!
"You're Minister Di's son, aren't you?"
Liu Dewei didn't agree or disagree. He stepped forward and looked into Di Zhixun's eyes with a smile.
Di Zhixun's father, Di Xiaoxu, was a minister in the imperial court.
"Yes! But today I just want to solve this case for the Supreme Court with my own ability. It has nothing to do with my father! "
Di Zhixun didn't avoid Liu Dewei's eyes and said.
"… Haha! Good! Upright and courageous, brave and resourceful. Like father, like son! Minister Di gave birth to a good son! "
After a moment of silence, Liu Dewei suddenly laughed. Then he looked at Di Zhixun with appreciation and said, "Guards! Take Prince Wei, Young Master Di, and the others to examine Jin Wanfu's body! "
"Yes!"
The two yamen runners at the door immediately bowed and received the order.
"Thank you, Minister Liu!"
Di Zhixun cupped his hands and then followed the yamen runners with Li Tai and the others.
"Minister Liu …"
Dai Zhou couldn't help but want to dissuade them. He was proud and arrogant, so he naturally didn't think that the unresolved case that had troubled the Supreme Court for so many days could be solved by a few kids. But before he could voice his doubts, Liu Dewei reached out and interrupted, "There's no need to say more. Sometimes, us old fellows should give these young people some chances!"
Dai Zhou frowned and didn't say anything. After a while, he was still worried and said to Liu Dewei, "I'll go and take a look!"
"I'll also go and take a look!"
Sun Fujia also cupped her hands and said.
…
"Oh! What's that smell? It's so smelly! "
When they arrived at the mortuary, the stench hit them in the face. Everyone couldn't help but cover their noses and step back.
"Jin Wanfu has been dead for two days, and the weather is hot now. It's normal to smell like a corpse. If you can't stand the smell, you can wait for me outside!"
Di Zhixun took out a handkerchief from his bosom and covered his nose. Then, he calmly said to Li Tai and the other two.
Li Tai thought about it and felt that it would be disloyal to him if he left like this. So he insisted, "No! We're here to investigate this case together. What's this little stench to us? "" That's right. You're right.
"Yes, yes, yes! Zhixun, stop talking nonsense. Let's go in together! "
Sun Zifan pinched his nose and shouted.
After that, the three of them followed Di Zhixun into the mortuary without hesitation.
However, when they saw Jin Wanfu's' fragmented 'corpse on the corpse bed, they couldn't help but vomit.
"Ugh! I can't take it anymore! Zhixun, I'm going out to get some fresh air! "
Li Tai covered his mouth and ran out of the door in a sorry state.
He was the Prince of Wei. He had lived a life of luxury since he was young. When had he ever seen such a horrible and disgusting scene? It was already a miracle that he didn't wet himself on the spot!
Sun Zifan ran even faster than Li Tai. When he reached the mortuary, he couldn't help but vomit.
Yuchi Bao Lin was the last of the three to come out. He didn't look any different.
"Qingque, Zifan, are you okay?"
The honest Bao Lin came forward and asked with concern.
"Ugh! How can I be okay … Ugh! It's too disgusting in there! I can't take it anymore. Let me vomit for a while more! "
Li Tai rolled his eyes and started vomiting again.
"Prince of Wei, how can you come to a place like the mortuary? You'd better rest in the side hall! "
At that moment, Dai Zhou walked over and looked at Li Tai with "concern".
Although he said that he was concerned, he was actually looking down on them. In his opinion, how could these four brats who had never investigated a case solve this case?
Li Tai was someone like him. How could he not hear the slight contempt in Dai Zhou's voice? He resisted the urge to vomit and stood up straight. He looked at Dai Zhou and said, "Thank you for your kind intentions, Mr. Dai, but my friends are still inside. I'm not going anywhere! We will definitely solve this unsolved case of the Supreme Court! "
Dai Zhou's expression changed slightly. Then, he smiled and cupped his hands. "Prince of Wei, you are so bold! Let's see if Young Master Di can find the real murderer today! "
"Let's wait and see!"
Li Tai raised his chin and said without backing down.
Sun Fujia secretly shook his head. Although he didn't believe that Li Tai, Di Zhixun, and the others could solve this case, he didn't agree with Dai Zhou's personality from the bottom of his heart. Dai Zhou was too competitive! Sun Fujia believed that Dai Zhou would suffer a great loss sooner or later!
They stood outside the mortuary and waited for Di Zhixun to come out.
After about 15 minutes, Di Zhixun finally came out of the mortuary. Sun Zifan hurried over and asked, "Zhixun, how is it? Did you find anything? "
Both Li Tai and Dai Zhou shifted their gazes to Di Zhixun at this moment.
Di Zhixun nodded and said, "Now I can basically confirm how Jin Wanfu died and who killed him!"
Hearing this, Dai Zhou and Sun Fujia's expressions changed slightly. Liu Dewei walked over and asked, "Oh? Young Master Di, can you tell us how Jin Wanfu died? "
Di Zhixun cupped his hands towards Liu Dewei and then said, "Jin Wanfu's fatal injuries are the two needle-sized wounds on his throat. I'm sure the coroner of the Supreme Court has already informed the three of you! However, the Supreme Court hasn't found the murder weapon, so we haven't come to a conclusion about the way the murderer killed Jin Wanfu!
Actually, what I want to say is that the murderer's way of killing Jin Wanfu was very simple. He just used two thin needles and injected them with powerful Genuine Qi. He pierced them through Jin Wanfu's mouth and pierced the back of Jin Wanfu's head, killing him instantly! "
Dai Zhou couldn't help but refute, "Since the murderer used thin needles, why didn't we see any needles in the body or at the scene of the crime? Could it be that the murderer took the needles out of the body after killing Jin Wanfu? "
Liu Dewei nodded, obviously agreeing with Dai Zhou's point of view.
Di Zhixun smiled and said, "Of course not! I just checked the two wounds on Jin Wanfu's throat. The flesh on the inner walls of the wounds were all facing inwards, which proves that the murderer didn't take the murder weapon out of the wounds. Therefore, Minister Dai's hypothesis is not valid! "
Dai Zhou was speechless and said, "Then why did the murder weapon in the body disappear?"
Di Zhixun said in a low voice, "Because the murderer didn't use thin needles made of ordinary materials, but ice needles! Ice needles hurt people, and after the victim died, the ice turned into water. Naturally, you can't find the murder weapon! "
"Ice needles? Where did the murderer get ice on such a hot day? Besides, even if the murderer had an ice cellar in his house, the ice needles would have turned into water by the time he brought them to the Supreme Court. How did he kill Jin Wanfu? "
Dai Zhou couldn't help but sneer when he heard this.
A hint of hesitation flashed across Liu Dewei's face, but he didn't say anything to refute.
Li Tai couldn't help but interrupt at noon, "Minister Dai, you're wrong! Who said that the ice in summer can only be obtained from an ice cellar? Even if some people don't have an ice cellar, they can still make ice cubes and ice needles at any time and place! "
When he heard Di Zhixun say that the murderer killed people with ice needles, Li Tai suddenly felt enlightened. No wonder they couldn't find the murder weapon in the murderer's body or outside of his body. No wonder Di Zhixun suddenly shouted excitedly, "I know who the murderer is!" When he saw Du E perform the Ice Turning Water Immortal Technique, he suddenly shouted excitedly, "I know who the murderer is!" With so many coincidences, they were getting closer to the truth of the case step by step!
"Your Highness, please be careful with your words! I'm not a three-year-old child. I won't believe that you can make ice on a hot summer day! "
Dai Zhou thought that Li Tai was teasing him. His face couldn't help but fall as he said unhappily.
Li Tai smiled and said, "Minister Dai, please wait a moment. After I ask someone to get the telegraph, I'll ask Yamachō to tell us how to make ice on a whim!"
