MTL - Cannon Fodder Counterattack Investigation System-Chapter 13
Zhou Ziruo used to watch criminal investigation dramas and often heard a line: "When the case has no progress, go back to the scene of the crime and check it again, and there will be new discoveries."
Although the scene where Han Ruizhi was killed is still uncertain, let's assume it was the Tanshui Garden, so the two came again the next night.
According to the reasoning method of restoring the incident, the two first came to the tree hole after entering the garden. Lu Lixiao touched the tree trunk and bent his knees, "Han Ruizhi came here to visit Yuying, and something happened, the black wooden box fell on the ground. The things in the box should be raw meat that Yuying likes to eat, and it was taken away by mice or crows .”
Zhou Ziruo picked up a palm-sized stone and placed it where the box used to be, representing the box.
Lu Lixiao got up and walked to the pool, "That matter was very urgent, Han Ruizhi ignored the box and fled to the other side."
When the two came to the other side of the pool, Zhou Ziruo knelt down and picked up the weeds, pointing to the dried blood at the roots of the weeds, "Han Ruizhi was injured, his blood dripped here."
Lu Lixiao poked the weeds with his sword, walked along the bloodstains to the place where the fox fur was found that night, and carefully inspected the surroundings with that place as the center, and found a new discovery in a farther place, "The amount of bleeding here suddenly changed. It's getting older, Han Ruizhi should have had his heart dug out in this place."
"So this garden is indeed the place where Han Ruizhi was killed?" Zhou Ziruo said.
Lu Lixiao nodded slowly, and said, "There should still be clues about the person who dug the heart in this garden."
"Is it possible that Resentful Infant stole Han Ruizhi's heart?" Zhou Ziruo asked doubtfully.
Lu Lixiao said: "It's not very likely. If it's the resentful infant digging the heart, he can dig it by the tree hole, why wait for Han Ruizhi to escape so far? Besides, Han Ruizhi came here to visit the resentful infant and didn't bring any self-defense items except food. Once, the Resentful Infant will not harm him."
"It means that there is a third person in this garden that night." Zhou Ziruo concluded.
"There must be traces left around here."
The two spread out and searched carefully in the grass. After half an hour, Lu Lixiao waved to Zhou Ziruo from the side of the bushes. Zhou Ziruo rushed over, Lu Lixiao pointed the tip of the scabbard at the place where the root of a tree was covered by weeds, and then the scabbard lifted the weeds, revealing several sharp claw marks.
"This is…"
"Judging from the depth of these claw marks, it shouldn't be a problem to dig people's hearts." Lu Lixiao picked up the sword and said lightly.
Zhou Ziruo tapped his palms: "I understand! That night Han Ruizhi and Yuying were together, and the owner of the claw mark suddenly appeared and attacked them. Han Ruizhi was injured, and Yuan Ying took Han Ruizhi to the opposite side of the pool, and the owner of the claw mark caught up Dug out Han Ruizhi's heart and ran away. Resentment Ying went after that guy. When they were gone, someone came here and took away Han Ruizhi's body, skinned him and put him in the small house, then beat me up again. Halo frame frame!"
"Why did that person skin Han Ruizhi's limbs? And why did he plant the blame on you?" Lu Lixiao guided.
Zhou Ziruo said in one breath: "Because that man thought that Han Ruizhi was killed by Yuying, and he wanted to protect Yuying, so he put the blame on me! He imitated the way Mu Taoist treated the fox sixteen years ago, and intentionally provoked Mrs. Han and the fox. Taoist Mu remembered the incident of framing Mrs. Hu sixteen years ago to make them feel guilty and dare not investigate the real cause of Han Ruizhi's death! Oh! I know! The one who took my top bag and killed a thousand swords is Master Han!"
That night was as cold as water, Han Li was restless, and always had an ominous feeling in his heart, so he came to this garden alone to take a look at the resentful baby he hid in the tree hole, but he actually saw it The eldest son Han Ruizhi died in a miserable corpse!
There was no movement on the other side of the pool, obviously the Resentful Infant was no longer in the tree hole. He was the only one who knew the secrets of this garden. He didn't know why Han Ruizhi appeared here. He could only speculate that Han Ruizhi strayed into this place and disturbed the resentful infant in the tree hole. Unfortunately, he was killed by the resentful infant!
The death of Han Ruizhi caused Han Li to die of grief. He had already lost one son, and he couldn't lose the other he had finally found! If Mrs. Han learned of Han Ruizhi's death, she would definitely let Taoist Mu investigate the matter thoroughly, and the Resentful Infant would definitely be killed by them!
Thinking of this, Han Li's heart turned cold, holding Han Ruizhi's body that had no temperature, he had an extremely cruel thought.
He moved Han Ruizhi's body to the courtyard where Hu Niangzi lived before his death, and with his own hands, he skinned and divided his son with a sharp blade, just like Mu Taoist treated the speechless and innocent fox sixteen years ago.
Only by placing Han Ruizhi's body in Mrs. Hu's room, and only by imitating the fate of that fox, can Mrs. Han's fear of what happened sixteen years ago be aroused, and she dare not continue to entangle her, or even dare to investigate further. Find out the real cause of Han Ruizhi's death.
In order to protect his son, Han Li, who had been cowardly and weak all his life, turned into a demon, and cut the blood-dripping blade on the flesh and blood of his other son, and cut his own heart with each knife...
Even though Zhou Ziruo had all sorts of grievances against Han Li for framing him, but thinking of Han Ruizhi who had died, he couldn't get angry anymore, and he was so stuffy that he felt uncomfortable.
"Then whose claw marks belong to them? Who is the real murderer who killed Han Ruizhi?"
"Who?" Lu Lixiao raised the corner of his lower lip sarcastically, and said coldly, "It seems that Mrs. Han has made two plans to get rid of Resentful Infant, and I'm just a backup."
Zhou Ziruo was shocked: "Madam Han found something that killed Han Ruizhi!?"
Lu Lixiao glanced at the claw marks, and said: "This 'thing' should be a lonely ghost that Mu Taoist helped Mrs. Han find. It has no spirituality. Mrs. Han asked it to kill the resentful infant, but it even attacked Han Ruizhi. She even dug out Han Ruizhi's heart by mistake! Mrs. Han asked me to stay in the Han Mansion, probably because this thing is out of control, and I need to subdue it as a last resort!"
Zhou Ziruo tutted his head and shook his head, "Master Han really made a wedding dress for someone! Mrs. Han would like to thank him for helping her play tricks. All doubts have been clarified, what should we do now?"
Lu Lixiao walked towards the entrance of the garden, "Go find Taoist Mu."
"Find him? He won't admit it!"
Lu Lixiao said: "Most of the ways to control those lonely ghosts are to use their own blood as a guide, but if the practice is not advanced enough, gradually those lonely ghosts will not only lose control, but will eventually backfire! Taoist Mu is in danger."
Although it was late at night, there were guards in the mansion watching the night, Lu Lixiao caught one of the guards and asked Mu Taoist where he lived, then left the bewildered servant on the spot and ran away.
Pushing open the door of the Mu Taoist's room, a **** smell came to his nostrils, the lights in the room were turned off, and the Mu Taoist's disembowelled corpse lay on the cold floor, the moonlight fell on his wide-open eyes, standing still forever never gathered in one place.
Zhou Ziruo covered his mouth, the scene and the smell made him want to vomit, but Lu Lixiao stepped into the room without fear, and knelt beside Mu Taoist's body.
Mu Taoist's viscera were ripped out all over the floor, Zhou Ziruo fainted at a glance, put his back against the door panel and faced outwards and asked Lu Lixiao, "Did you die?"
Lu Lixiao gave a low "hmm".
"What did the lonely ghost do?"
"…I think so."
I rely on! The consequences of this backlash are too serious! Stabbing it won't work? I want to dig out all the internal organs!
"Then, should we go to the murderer now or to the resentful baby?"
Lu Lixiao didn't answer Zhou Ziruo's words, he opened Taoist Mu's clenched fist, and took out a tattered parchment scroll from inside. The light in the room was too dark to see the contents of the parchment, so he conveniently stuffed the parchment into his clothes, and continued to examine Mu Taoist's body.
At this moment, Zhou Ziruo, who was leaning on the door panel, saw a large number of flames approaching from outside the yard, and the sound of messy footsteps came from the air.
Wu Zhuangyuan rushed in aggressively with a large group of servants. The flames illuminated Taoist Mu's yard like daylight. The corpse of Taoist Mu was clearly visible in the wide open door. Wu Zhuangyuan's expression changed, and he pointed at Lu Lixiao and Zhou Ziruo: "Tie it up! Tie it up! Take it to the county government tomorrow morning!"
"Crazy! Why kidnap us? We didn't kill him!" Zhou Ziruo yelled.
"Master Mu's Taoism is profound, who else in this mansion can kill him except you two from the Taoist sect?!" Mrs. Han walked out of the crowd in a domineering manner.
If Zhou Zi put P in his heart, then he is a swindling charlatan, don't you know yet!
"We didn't kill Taoist Mu!"
Wu Zhuangyuan said: "Then who did you say killed it?"
"Ghost killer!" God knows Zhou Ziruo is answering this question seriously, but Wu Zhuangyuan has an angry face of being fooled, and as soon as he gestures, the servant raises his stick as if to charge over.
Wu Zhuangyuan shouted: "You guys will be captured obediently, and you will not suffer from flesh and blood!"
Just grab a lump with your hands! The young master didn't kill anyone again!
Zhou Ziruo said to Mrs. Han: "I said that Taoist Mu was killed by a ghost. Mrs. Han, you understand!"
Mrs. Han's expression was blank: "I don't understand what you are talking about."
Zhou Ziruo instantly understood the woman's plan. Mu Taoist is dead, and no one will know about what happened sixteen years ago and Han Ruizhi's heart-poaching. In the future, she will find a real expert to take over that ghost, and everyone will be happy!
It really is the most poisonous woman's heart!
"Catch them!" Mrs. Han said.
The servants rushed up, Zhou Ziruo took a step back, and put a wide palm on his lower back, which inexplicably made him feel more at ease.
"Hold on to me." That hand hugged him close to his waist, and he left the ground the next moment. Lu Lixiao swung his long sword to block the sticks that the servants hit, stepped on the heads of the servants and swayed. Flying away, leaving only the courtyard full of flames and dark figures.
