Case Solved (2)
Strange things could be explained, but what about ghosts knocking on the door?
Ji Yunshu looked towards the door and called out, "Zijin."
Shi Zijin pushed her way through the crowd and entered. Her expression was cold, and she held a long sword in one hand and a large bag wrapped in black cloth in the other.
"Teacher, the things are here."
Ji Yunshu signaled with her eyes, and she threw the things in her hands on the ground.
The things inside spilled out with a loud clatter.
It was a bamboo tube that was used to transmit sound!
Each bamboo tube was connected to a thin steel wire. The steel wire was so thin that it was impossible to see it without looking closely.
"What is this?" Tang Si asked.
Ji Yunshu explained, "This is what they use to transmit the voices of children in the estate. There is one in almost every hidden place in the estate. They use the steel wire to transmit their voices, which is why we can only hear the voices, but not see the person."
Tang Si was very curious. She picked up the two connected tubes, put one to her ear, and the other to her mouth, and whispered a few words.
She was shocked, "It really works."
She had seen many strange things in her life, but this was the first time she saw something like this.
At least, she had never seen something like this in Houliao.
She asked again, "But that night, I clearly heard someone knocking on my door."
Ji Yunshu explained again, "As long as you tie a string to the pebble, you can throw it out and then retrieve it. You can also imitate the children's laughter through the sound tube, and that's how it became the so-called ghost knocking on the door."
Oh!
The truth is out!
Zhou Wen laughed loudly, his bloodshot eyes widening. He looked at Ji Yunshu and said very calmly, "I really underestimated you."
"You overestimated yourself."
"Yes, I did overestimate myself a little." He laughed at himself and looked at the ceiling of the hall in a daze. "A month ago, I secretly shipped the counterfeit goods in, waiting for the ghost incident to blow up before swapping them out. I didn't expect His Highness to invite you here. I wanted to wait for you to leave before swapping them out, but Cai Da and Granny Lin died at this time, so the ghost incident blew up even more. That was the best opportunity, and I couldn't miss it, so I took the risk and secretly swapped them out overnight."
"What happened between Cai Da and Granny Lin?" Ji Yunshu asked.
Hehe.
Be it the fake mountain or the tangled trees, they were all his doing. Only he had an alibi, so no one would suspect him. But unexpectedly, after Granny Lin found out, she tried to persuade him. However, Cai Da wanted money and wanted to be rich, so the mother and son pushed each other. In the end, Cai Da killed his mother. As a filial son, he felt guilty and committed suicide by biting his tongue. What a fool! "
He shook his head and sneered.
In the eyes of the public, Zhou Wen was a complete pervert. For the sake of those treasures, he actually caused so much trouble, causing Cai Da and Granny Lin's deaths. In order to protect himself, he didn't hesitate to burn the dozen people who worked for him alive. "
Selfish pervert.
After a long time …
He stopped laughing and looked at Ji Yunshu. "If I knew this would happen, I would have killed you on the way to Jingzhou City."
Hehe!
"Do you think you can get away with killing me?"
"At least you won't be able to find out," Jing Rong suddenly said.
"If you had touched her, you wouldn't be kneeling here today. Instead, you would have been dismembered by this Prince."
Those who dared to touch his woman, even in death, should be dismembered into a thousand pieces.
Ji Yunshu was very happy.
Unknowingly, she was starting to like this man's domineering ways.
However, Wu Weiwen was a cowardly person. Seeing that the outcome had been decided, he knelt on the ground and began to beg for mercy, "Marquis, please spare me. It's all Zhou Wen's fault. He was the one who instigated me to do it with him. I only agreed because I was blinded by greed. Marquis, please spare me on account that I've been by your side for so many years. I only want money, not people's lives. Zhou Wen was the one who started the fire, and he was the one who wanted to kill you.
It has nothing to do with me. "
At this moment, Marquis Kang felt as if he had been stabbed several times in the heart. He walked in front of Zhou Wen, but Wu Weiwen suddenly hugged his thigh and continued to beg for mercy. "Marquis, please spare me. This really has nothing to do with me. Please spare me."
He wailed and screamed at the top of his lungs.
However, Marquis Kang mercilessly kicked him and ordered, "Men, drag this thing out and kill him."
Using violence to curb violence!
Several soldiers dragged Wu Weiwen away from the ground.
"Marquis, Marquis …"
He howled like a wolf!
Farther and farther away.
Marquis Kang stared in disbelief at Zhou Wen, who had followed him for so many years, his heart aching.
He suddenly asked, "You're not doing this for money. Tell me, what is your goal?"
Hmm?
Surprise!
Not for money?
Even Ji Yunshu was slightly surprised. Her gaze swept across Marquis Kang and Zhou Wen, feeling sleepy.
On the ground, Zhou Wen looked up at Marquis Kang as if he had been skinned alive. "Marquis, you know me best."
"You've been by my side for decades. If you're doing this for money, as long as you say it, I will definitely do it for you. Why would you do something like this for money? Tell me, what is it for? "
"For your death!"
Murderous intent, even hatred, burst out from Zhou Wen's eyes.
His hands were clenched into fists!
His eyes seemed to come from the depths of hell, filled with extreme hatred and anger.
Marquis Kang's footsteps trembled as he shook his head. He really couldn't think of what he had done to make Zhou Wen hate him so much that he wanted to kill him.
"I treat you as one of my own, and the only person I can trust. From the capital to Jingzhou, I've always brought you with me. Did I want your life? Or did I hurt you? Why would you want to kill me? "
"You killed my son, how can I not kill you?" Zhou Wen roared.
His face flushed red as he slowly got up from the ground. The mansion soldiers drew their swords and surrounded him.
Marquis Kang was stunned.
His son?
Zhou Wen, you're a bachelor. Although you're old, you've never married or had children. Where did your son come from?
"Your son?" Marquis Kang's voice trembled.
Zhou Wen gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "The young master you pushed into the pond that year is my son."
Ugh!
A bolt of lightning struck Marquis Kang's head!
He was shocked, but not too shocked.
Instead, he said, "So he's your son."
Does this mean that Marquis Kang also knows that the son who died in the pond was not his?
