Chapter 162: Sorting out the case

We hugged each other quietly for a long time, and her arms were always raised, as if they didn't dare to put them on me.

I finally let go of her slowly and said, "Then let it go naturally. I believe that you will get better one day. But I don't force it, I just hope to give each other a little confidence, okay?"

"This is OK."

She nodded gently, with a look of embarrassment or shyness on her face. Her eyes were shiny, and she kept looking at me with her head halfway up, and then she burst out laughing.

After untiing a knot in my heart for a long time, I seemed to have even been washed away and my whole body became much more relaxed.

When I feel better, I want to eat sweets.

I ordered two more desserts with a big appetite. Chen Yu didn't eat them, so I wrapped them all around and chatted with her while eating: "There are too many things that have happened recently, and I'm a little confused. Let's put our affairs aside. You just said that there is no suspense about the case of the flower-coat ghost. What do you say?"

"You are more addicted to solving cases now than me."

"Isn't everyone like this? I always want to find a result for the hanging things."

"Now all the clues are concentrated in the yard of the yu family." Chen Yu seemed to finally calm down. She bit a piece of seaweed and said slowly, "The first one to die was Lu Xianheng. The murderer first used a wheelbarrow to transport the fountain water from Xinyunli community to the pool in the yu family's yard, and then pretended to be a flower-clothed ghost, drowned Lu Xianheng behind the pool and moved the fountain, pretending to be a scene where he fell into the water.

"The wheelbarrow, pool, and plastic water bags used by the murderer to commit the crime were all in the yard of the Qing family. The corresponding witnesses that night, in addition to Luo Xiaomao, who felt that the flower-coat ghost looked like Lu Xianheng, also Ran Fenqiang, who passed by the entrance of Xinyunli Community."

I followed her thoughts and went down: "Then the next one is Luo Laosong. At present, it can only be confirmed that his death is related to the flower-clothed ghost, but I have not yet obtained any tangible evidence."

Chen Yu listened and smiled without objection.

I saw that she had no objection, and then said, "There were three witnesses this time. First, at 11:30, Xu Chuyue encountered a flower-clothing ghost in the alley behind the 'Haoqing' bar. Half an hour later, the flower-clothing ghost struck the Lu family's yard and was seen by Li Yaru and Aunt Jiang. The next morning, Luo Laosong was found electrocuted on the telephone pole."

"Yes, Luo Laosong has the least evidence at present, and there is no direct evidence to prove that his death is related to the flower-clothed ghost." Chen Yuwei frowned, as if thinking about something, "But what is certain is that the murderer wants to get his death to the flower-clothed ghost, create the illusion of 'ghost punishing the evil people', and prepare for his next action."

"The third case is the Shang Weimin case. This time the role of the flower-clothed ghost is more direct. It appeared in front of Luo Dagang and Shang Weimin, and successfully attracted the pursuit of the brave and fierce Shang Weimin. It played a trick of stealing the day and changing the sun in the alley before and after the 'Beautiful Hair Salon'. Although Yao Xia accidentally caught it, he still successfully avoided the surveillance and Luo Dagang's eyes and led Shang Weimin to Chuanyunqu, right?"

Chen Yu nodded, she took a sip of boiled water, and then said, "According to logic, the murderer should have wanted to make Shang Weimin like Lu Xianheng fall into the water. Unexpectedly, although Shang Weimin was drunk, he had the habit of going crazy after drinking, so he did not lose the ability to resist.

"At this time, the murderer may have heard Liu Ping and Lu Xiaofeng complaining and walked over. He was afraid that the night would be too long, so he strangled Shang Weimin to death with a wire, and buried the body nearby in the garbage dump, causing the illusion of Shang Weimin's disappearance in order to cover up. The witnesses in this case include Luo Dagang, Lu Xiaofeng and Liu Ping. The weapon at that time also came from the yard of the jing family."

"Actually, there is a fourth witness." I stuffed a large mouthful of steak and said while eating, "Lu Shihui saw the flower-coat ghost at the entrance of his alley that night, and the entrance of his alley is also the entrance of the alley of the Zhao family."

I thought about it and finally didn't say that there was actually a fifth witness, that is, Xu Chuyue, who also saw the corpse buried in the flower-clothed ghost.

"This points to the yard of the yard again." Chen Yu said lightly, "It is obvious that the murderer regards the yard of the yard as the base camp and planned three murders there."

"That Xu Zhao is very suspicious!" I couldn't help but sigh.

Chen Yu gave me a blank look because I said nonsense: "Yu Zhao is of course very suspicious - he is short of money, which is an obvious motive for murder."

In the past, I was not unhappy with Chen Yu's eyes, but this time I felt very different. In addition to refuting, I also had anger, which was about to melt the heart of the dog.

I suppressed the smile on my face, thought for a while, and said, "But Lu Shihui also has doubts. He has the key to the Zhao family. Is it possible that they committed the crime together? Or are they intimate each other?"

On the surface, the yard of the yu family is very broad - Xu Zhao has been evading debts for a long time, and there is no one at home, so it is always possible for outsiders to get the key to his house. In this way, finding the murderer is simply looking for a needle in a haystack.

But then I thought, although there was no one in the family, there were many people who collected debts from high walls and deep courtyards, but they were all spray painted and smashed outside, and even the gate of the courtyard was unable to enter. This shows that the family's door was very strict and not anyone could enter just by wanting to enter.

"No matter who it is, he is a person who is very familiar with Ju Zhao, or in other words, a person who is very familiar with Ju Zhao's family."

I suddenly remembered another question, so I scratched my head and asked Chen Yu: "But I still have another question - why did the murderer carry the wire with me that night of killing Shang Weimin?"

"I have considered this issue. I guess the murderer is very cautious. It is very convenient to carry the wires with you. It doesn't look weird if you put them in your pocket. So he often brings wires to defend himself. You see, it was used when killing Shang Weimin. If the murderer was Xu Zhao, it is easy to understand to cut a piece of wire and carry them on him. But if it weren't for him, the murderer would be even more cunning - in addition to defending himself, the wires can also play a role in framing the blame."

I was surprised. If it was really a scapegoat, it means that the murderer had already thought about all the situation in advance. The long-term thinking was really shocking.

After listening to Chen Yu's detailed explanation, I couldn't help but jump. After just talking openly, our relationship seemed to have taken a big step forward. She used to be always on the air, but now she has analyzed so many cases with me, and her attitude is much gentler.

If it were before, she would basically ignore any obvious questions I asked, but she would not expect that she would explain them so patiently this time.

I suddenly remembered something again and said, "I picked up a piece of mud from the wheelbarrow yesterday. This should be a very important evidence!"

Chen Yu sat up straight: "Where is the thing?"

I smiled awkwardly: "I changed my clothes today and the things were left at home. Do you want to go back to get them now?"
