Chapter 511, suspicious person

Qu Wanyue was shocked when she saw the scene in the room. She immediately told Xiao Lou what she saw, "Professor Xiao, the bride was hung on the cantilever. She was motionless and should have been dead." Xiao Lou was stunned. , looking back at Yu Hanjiang, "How could it happen so quickly? Didn't she just return to her new house after worshiping?"

Yu Hanjiang frowned and was silent for a moment before saying, "Our speculation is probably wrong."

According to the description of this incident by the residents of the town, the bride returned to the new house after worshiping, and the groom drank with the guests in the backyard until early in the morning. He returned to the house drunk, and then discovered that the bride had committed suicide by hanging from the beam. According to this sequence of events, Xiao Both Lou and Yu Hanjiang believed that the bride was killed by a murderer mixed in with the guests while the groom was toasting.

From the end of the worship service to the discovery of the bride's body, there was an hour, that is, two hours. The murderer had enough time to plan to kill the bride. This is why Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang lay on the roof as soon as they entered the courtyard and stared at the guest seats. They wanted to identify the most likely suspect by carefully observing the expressions and movements of the guests. The murderer.

However, during the few minutes they observed on the rooftop, there was nothing unusual in the guest seats. All seats were occupied, proving that no one had left during this period.

You can't kill people in the air without leaving the guest table, so the murderer should not be among these guests.

Then who will kill the bride?

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang were both thinking about this problem. Qu Wanyue's voice sounded in the earphones, "Professor Xiao, there is no one in the new house now. Do you want to come over and do an autopsy?"

Xiao Lou came to his senses and said softly, "Okay, we'll go there right now."

He asked Liu Qiao and Lao Mo to continue to stay on the roof and stare at the guest seats, while he and Yu Hanjiang climbed down from the roof and walked quickly to the new house from the path behind the yard.

The distance between the backyard and the new house is about 50 meters. If the bride screams after discovering the murderer, the guests will definitely hear it. According to the description of the town residents, the bride committed suicide, indicating that she did not cry out for help when she was killed.

As Yu Hanjiang walked, he observed the surrounding environment. There was an artificial pond in the backyard, filled with lotus flowers. In early spring, the lotus flowers had not yet bloomed. Large lotus leaves covered the top of the pond. Through the hazy moonlight, the water in the pond could be vaguely seen. Very clear.

Xiao Lou noticed Yu Hanjiang's thoughts and responded in his mind, "The pond in the Long family is very large, and there are so many lotus leaves that can serve as a natural barrier. You suspect that the murderer is lurking in the pond."

Yu Hanjiang nodded, "No one left in the guest room midway, and the murderer is definitely not among the guests. The water is very good, so hiding in a hidden pond in advance is indeed a good choice."

Xiao Lou glanced at the pond covered with lotus leaves and whispered into the earphone, "Let's go to the autopsy first. Lao Mo continued to stare at the guests. Xiao Liu, use the mermaid princess to transform, then put on the invisibility cloak and go into the water to take a look. .be safe."

Liu Qiao quickly responded, "Received."

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang turned around and walked to the door of the new house. Long Qu and the two had turned into the color of the wall and pressed their bodies against the wall. Seeing them coming, Long Sen said, "There is no one in the house, and those matchmakers and maids have gone somewhere. The bride was left hanging from the beam."

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang had long been accustomed to hearing the "wall" speak suddenly. Xiao Lou said to the wall on the right, "Please look at the door. Someone is coming and use the earphones to notify us. Han Jiang and I will go in and have a look."

Qu Wanyue's voice came from the wall on the left: "Okay, be careful."

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang gently pushed open the door. As soon as they entered, they saw the bride in a bright red wedding dress hanging from a cantilever, her tongue sticking out of her mouth, her body stiff, and she had long since lost her breath.

The bright red wedding wax was lit in the room, and the flickering candlelight reflected the bride's pale face. The woman's tongue sticking out looked a bit scary. His wide eyes seemed to be staring at Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang intently.

Fortunately, Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang had strong psychological qualities. When they met the bride's eyes, Yu Hanjiang simply flew up and lowered the bride from the cantilever. Xiao Lou took a step forward, carefully observed the marks on the corpse's neck, and quickly concluded, "Judging from the surface characteristics of the corpse, Lin Wanqing was indeed hanged."

This conclusion surprised the teammates, but everyone quickly calmed down. On the surface, it does not represent the truth.

Yu Hanjiang said, "You mean, she wasn't strangled to death and then hung from a hanging beam."

Xiao Lou pointed to the marks on her neck and said, "If you strangle a hanging corpse, since it is already dead when it is hung on the hanging beam, the blood flow will stop, and the hanging position will show horizontal, even, and closed strangulation marks; while hanging a corpse will cause the blood flow to stop." Because the person who committed suicide was still alive when hanging from the suspension beam, the blood flow was blocked. The constriction marks formed on the neck should be the darkest at the bottom, spreading to both sides, and getting lighter as they go up, which is consistent with the marks on Lin Wanqing's neck. Moreover, there were obvious purple spots on her body due to lack of oxygen, and the toes of her feet were completely drooped, which were consistent with the characteristics of a hanged person. In previous cases, Yu Hanjiang had heard Xiao Lou say "suicide by hanging" and "suicide by hanging". The difference between "strangling someone and then hanging him up". If you look closely, the traces on Lin Wanqing's neck do not look like he was strangled and hung up.

Yu Hanjiang said, "But there are two situations of hanging. One is hanging yourself up, and the other is hanging yourself forcibly by the murderer. I prefer the latter."

Xiao Lou also thought of this, nodded and said, "The murderer probably hid in the dark and quickly subdued her, and then hung her on the cantilever, so that she could not cry out for help or struggle, and was hanged alive. You see, she was hanged." It’s a little weird in a way.”

Yu Hanjiang said, "Most people use white silk to hang themselves. She used such long hair, it is not her own."

Xiao Lou frowned and looked at the braid hanging on the hanging beam. He remembered that all the women's hair at the bottom of Zuiyue Lake was tied together by water plants. He said thoughtfully, "The murderer seems to have a strange obsession with hair." Lin Wanqing’s braid is more than two meters long. Most women don’t keep their hair that long. This braid is probably made from several people’s hair, mixed with special materials.”

Xiao Lou leaned over to check the strangulation marks on the deceased's neck. At this moment, the female corpse lying on the ground disappeared like a ghost. Immediately afterwards, the red curtains of the entire new house suddenly flew into the air.

Those red cloths seemed to have spirituality and quickly moved toward the two of them.

Xiao Lou was stunned and said, "It's a hunter."

A cold light suddenly appeared in Yu Hanjiang's eyes. He held Xiao Lou's waist with one hand and quickly backed away. The saber in his other hand was slashed cleanly. However, the red cloths were made of unknown materials and could not be split with a knife. .

Just as the two of them were about to be wrapped in red cloth like rice dumplings, Lao Mo's voice suddenly sounded in the earphones, "All the guests in the backyard have disappeared. They disappeared in place, just like a movie."

Qu Wanyue said nervously, "Professor Xiao, the candle in the room went out. Did something happen?"

Xiao Lou quickly calmed down and said, "Be careful, everyone, this place is full of hunters."

Qu Wanyue and Long Sen wanted to come in to help, but found that the door was like an iron wall and could not be pushed open at all.

At this moment, the whole yard suddenly burst into flames, and the roof of the building where Lao Mo was located was instantly submerged in flames. Lao Mo was burned by the heat wave that shot up into the sky and screamed.

At the same time, dense arrows were fired at the new house where Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou were.

Qu Wanyue and Long Sen were shocked. Although they could use chameleon cards to disguise themselves as the color of the surrounding environment. At this time, they were pressed against the wall and could not be seen on the surface, but their bodies actually still existed.

With so many arrows, if they continue to stick to the wall, won't they be shot into hedgehogs?

Qu Wanyue made a prompt decision and directly activated the Dance King card. With the blessing of the Dance King buff, her body was as flexible as a fish and she quickly flew to the distance close to the ground. Long Sen was not as flexible as her, but he was not slow to respond at the critical moment. He immediately activated the zombie jump card, making his legs eight meters long in an instant. He jumped into the air and dodged all the sharp arrows.

A dense rain of arrows shot from under him. Long Sen was startled, but when he looked back, he saw that the iron wall that he and Qu Wanyue couldn't break was actually penetrated by sharp arrows.

Long Sen was stunned. When he saw the sharp arrow hitting the house, he hurriedly shouted, "Captain Yu, Professor Xiao, are you okay?"

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang were in a bad situation at this time, as their vision was completely blocked by the red curtain.

A red cloth more than two meters high surrounded them in the center. The red cloth kept spinning like a red tornado. Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang could not see anything in their eyes, and they did not know that Long Sen and Qu Wanyue outside were almost shot. hedgehog.

However, Yu Hanjiang's ears were extremely sensitive and his eyes could not see, but his ears heard the sound of sharp arrows piercing the air.

Before he could speak, Xiao Lou decisively took out a compass and quickly drew a circle on the ground. Yu Hanjiang didn't need to speak, and Xiao Lou also noticed the sound of sharp arrows in his mind.

Due to time constraints, the two had no time to communicate, but their tacit understanding did not require verbal communication at the critical moment.

The circle drawn by Xiao Lou was only about one meter in diameter. Yu Hanjiang took a step back and stuck closely to Xiao Lou back to back, hiding in this invincible circle that lasted for 10 minutes.

Almost as soon as Xiao Lou finished drawing the invincible circle, those sharp arrows pierced the red cloth and hit the transparent barrier in unison.

When Xiao Lou saw this scene, his heart was beating fast.

If he hadn't reacted decisively, even if it was just one second, he and Yu Hanjiang would have been shot into hedgehogs by now.

Use a red cloth to block their vision, and then let out a rain of arrows to kill the two of them. The red cloth that cannot be split and the dense rain of arrows must be card effects, and apart from them, only the Hunters have it in their hands. Such a powerful card.

The marriage plot just now should be a replay of the scene two years ago, which was the clues about the case given to them by the ghost town at night. But after the plot replay ended, the hunter who appeared caught everyone off guard.

Seeing that the compass barrier he had set up was instantly overwhelmed by dense arrows, Xiao Lou was still frightened. He breathed a sigh of relief. At least, the sharp arrows could not penetrate the compass barrier.

Xiao Lou pressed the voice earphone and asked, "Are you okay?"

Qu Wanyue and Long Sen replied successively, "It's okay, I ran fast." "I'm okay, I jumped into the tree."

Lau Kiu Road "In the Pond"

Before she finished speaking, a harsh "swishing" sound suddenly sounded in the earphones, as if something was surging crazily in the water. Liu Qiao said in surprise, "There are a lot of water ghosts here. I don't know if it's a card effect or a hunter." Pretend”

Xiao Lou took a breath and hurriedly said, "Xiao Liu, come out quickly."

Liu Qiao gritted her teeth. Fortunately, she opened the Mermaid Princess card and swam very fast, so she didn't get entangled in those things. Seeing those weird water ghosts, Liu Qiao decisively took out Elsa and activated the ice and snow skills, freezing the entire pond.

At the moment when the water in the pond froze into ice, Liu Qiao flew up using Qinggong and jumped out of the pond in a thrilling manner.

All the water ghosts in the pool turned into ice sculptures.

Liu Qiao exhaled softly, "I almost got into trouble with them. These people are so insidious. They actually hid under the lotus leaves."

Yu Hanjiang asked, "Are you okay?"

Liu Qiao said, "I'm fine. By the way, where's Uncle Mo?"

There was no response in the earphones, Xiao Lou worriedly said, "Old Mo"

Qu Wanyue also became nervous, "I just saw that the house where Lao Mo was in seemed to be on fire."

A moment later, Lao Mo's hoarse voice sounded in the headphones, "Cough, cough, cough, the house suddenly caught fire, and I almost got burned. Fortunately, I made a closed box out of marble and hid."

Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou are actually the safest at this time. After all, the invincible circle can last for 10 minutes. During this time, no one can break through the protection of the invincible circle.

The red curtains around him were still spinning in circles, which made people dizzy. Yu Hanjiang closed his eyes slightly and whispered, "You four, be careful and hide yourself from the predators. Xiao Liu is the fastest in Qinggong. He can use the treetops to climb out." , find a place to put Li Qingzhao’s mark and send it to us.”

Liu Qiao said, "Understood."

Yu Hanjiang immediately said in his mind, "I can probably guess who the murderer of the Shenhu case is."

Xiao Lou was startled, "From what detail did I find out?"

Yu Hanjiang said, "Hang Lin Wanqing's hair. Don't you think the braiding method is somewhat similar to vines?"

Xiao Lou suddenly realized.

Although the vines on the cliff at the back of the mountain have been destroyed, Xiao Lou still remembers that the vines are extremely strong and are made of weeds and branches mixed together. The hair used to hang Lin Wanqing was exactly the same as the braiding technique.
