This utility room is about thirty square meters, and most of the space inside is empty. The miscellaneous items are piled up in the southeast corner, covering an area of about ten square meters. In an open space, there is a table and a wooden bed placed.

Obviously, this place can also be utilized during times of tight housing supply in Lanyue Tower.

The first thing Li Xuan noticed were the two copper pots placed among those miscellaneous items. One is larger and the other is smaller. The larger one has a diameter comparable to a wheel, while the smaller one is only the thickness of an adult man's thigh.

There are tools for making saltpeter ice on site, which should be kept here as a backup for the Lanyue Tower, "Li Xuan then leaned down and looked at the ground." The floor has been cleaned and is very clean, but there are still residual bloodstains in the gaps between the floors

Unfortunately, this is ancient and there are no modern detection tools available. Otherwise, no matter how much the ground is cleaned, it would be of no use. He can also directly identify the murderer through fingerprints.

However, the spirits in this world also have three or more spells for identifying traces, but Li Xuan himself is ignorant and has not mastered any of them.

Li Xuan is currently taking remedial measures, but due to limited time and insufficient cultivation, he has not made much progress yet.

There are a large number of blood spots under the table, which should be the result of the perpetrator spraying blood onto the victim during the attack

Speaking of which, Li Xuan took out a dagger from his sleeve and carved a human figure on the floor: "Based on the traces, it can be inferred that the deceased must have been lying down here before his death

Situ Zhong seemed expressionless, coldly watching from the side, but a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes that others couldn't detect.

These miscellaneous items have been tampered with, the dust is not correct, and there are handprint residues in some areas. It can be inferred that after the killer and the deceased entered the miscellaneous room, there was a slight push or even conflict, causing some of the miscellaneous items to collapse. The killer had sorted them out before leaving, probably in a hurry to leave, leaving some traces, hmm

At this moment, Li Xuan's expression changed slightly and he looked towards a certain direction. That are several stacked wooden stools, below them, in the crevice of the floor, there are two things that should not belong here.

Li Xuan took a closer look and smiled as he took out a handkerchief and picked up the item under the wooden stool.

Mr. Situ, it seems that I don't need to suffer this unjust accusation anymore

Women's nails

Situ Zhong kept a close eye on Li Xuan's movements and also saw two things under the wooden stool. That is a woman's nail, the first half of which is broken, with an extremely irregular edge and coated with pink essential oil. On the surface of one of the nail fragments, there are still some black brown spots - they should be blood splatters from the victim's wound.

Situ Zhong couldn't help but look at Li Xuan with a complicated expression and said, "Your luck is really good

Li Xuan doesn't think he's lucky. In fact, today he just needs to bring Jiang Hanyun's three tailed spirit fox over to smell it, and this murder case can be easily solved.

※※※※

When Li Xuan brought Situ Zhong and the others back to the lobby downstairs, Jiang Hanyun looked at them with a smile and said, "Li Xuan, you came just in time. This case has been solved. We found some traces of saltpeter in Meng Xingyan's room

She pointed to the two women kneeling in front of her again and said, "Han Yan has already identified this woman surnamed Meng who instructed her to put medicine in the kitchen and steal saltpeter. She just confessed that Meng Xingyan slept with her in the ear room yesterday, but in fact, this woman left alone when she was ugly last night and returned to her room after half an hour

Meng Xingyan's face was as pale as paper. When she saw Li Xuan coming, she immediately threw a pleading look at him: "Sir, I don't know why the little woman accused me of smoking, but I can swear. If I left the door last night, I would be struck by lightning and die a terrible death

I have seen many people like you, whose deeds have been exposed and who dare to make any vows, "Jiang Hanyun said with a" tsk ", seeming disdainful." You said you didn't leave? But there are other people who can prove it to you? If not, why should I believe you? If you really have grievances, you can talk to the yamen

Meng Xingyan looks sad, and looks at Zhang Mount Taishan for help. The latter looked reluctant, but after hesitating for a while, he still shook his head. He fell asleep last night and didn't hear any movement from Meng Xingyan.

Li Xuan walked over without hesitation. He carefully looked at the hands of the two women and then chuckled, "She's not the murderer

At this moment, there was a sudden buzzing in the entire hall. Except for Situ Zhong following behind Li Xuan, everyone looked at Li Xuan with surprise.

Isn't she the murderer? "Jiang Hanyun first stared at Li Xuan suspiciously, then said," Now that there is evidence and evidence, can you tell me

It can only be said that the murderer is very clever and skilled at confusing the public, but unfortunately she has bad luck

Li Xuan continued to scan through the crowd while speaking, and finally his gaze fell on a pair of delicate and delicate jade hands.

Almost at the same time, the owner of these hands trembled slightly.

Li Xuan sighed and walked up to the poet Wei Shi at the Moon Tower, saying, "Miss Wei, I remember you had your nails on yesterday

The blood on Wei Shi's face had faded away at some point. Her eyelids drooped, but she remained calm as she looked at her own hands and said, "Young master, be careful. I thought it was a hindrance, so I cut it off

So you stayed at the crime scene? "Li Xuan took out the handkerchief in his arms and said," I think Miss Wei should be very familiar with them. It's worth mentioning that there are still bloodstains of the deceased on them

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hanyun immediately frowned and walked over to Li Xuan to grab the handkerchief. At this moment, everyone around was also peeking at the two of them.

And the sound of the entire hall gradually calmed down, and after a moment, it became audible.

Young master, are you doubting me? "Wei Shi gritted her teeth and seemed to be smiling." But why do you think this is mine

"Who else is there besides you?" Meng Xingyan didn't know when she had stood up. She stared at what Jiang Hanyun was holding: "That's Ice Leaf Red. This nail polish is unique to Women's Shop. You are the only one who can afford it in this building!"

Li Xuan didn't know the origin of the nail polish. One reason why he judged it was Wei Shi was that he had seen it yesterday and felt familiar with it; Secondly——

Wei Xingshou, among all the girls present today, you are the only one who has had her nails trimmed

Wei Shi was stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Xuan with a slightly ferocious expression and said, "I really use this ice leaf red. I'm the only one in the Moon Tower who has had my nails trimmed. But so what? Do you want to convict me just based on these two inexplicable nail fragments

Li Xuan shook his head slightly and said, "Does Wei Xingshou think it's meaningful to argue and deny like this? I guess the troops of Cui Zizhan, the commander of the Right Guard of the Southern Zhili Prefecture, are not far from here. He will make you and this smoking girl feel worse off than dead, and he will also make you regret falling into the hands of our Sixth Circuit

He directly copied the words that Situ Zhong had threatened him before to intimidate Wei Shi. However, Li Xuan's statement is not an exaggeration. In this era, although they do not have various high-tech tools, they do not need to be as rigorous in solving cases as in modern society.

The evidence held by Li Xuan alone is sufficient to convict Wei Shi.

If given the opportunity, the Cui family of Boling would definitely take the cruelest revenge against this Wei Xingshou.

But that's not right - "Peng Fulai frowned heavily." Although I fell asleep yesterday, I remember holding someone in my arms all the time

Li Xuan frowned slightly, glanced at Wei Shi again, and then his expression changed slightly. He swept his gaze towards the maid beside her and then pondered for a moment, "It's delicate and well proportioned, with a rich and even texture. In short, it feels excellent -

Peng Fulai is an extremely intelligent person who can see through just a little bit. He opened his eyes wide and stared at Wei Shi: "So the maid who accompanied me to sleep last night was actually her maid? Wow, not counting the use of drugs, she even passed off inferior products as good

Li Xuan sneered and looked outside the door, "Will Wei Xingshou still refuse to confess? I guess you are not afraid of the severe interrogation of the Cui family, but can you bear to see your loyal maid and this smoking girl suffer from that inhuman torture with you

The face with smoke had turned pale, but she gritted her teeth and remained silent. The maid around Wei Shi, who was in her early twenties, although her eyes were fearful and her body trembled slightly, remained silent and stubbornly held her head high.

It's me -

Wei Shi let out a sigh and gave a bitter smile, her entire spirit and spirit declining. "They are just accomplices, they are under my command," she said

Is it really you? "Jiang Hanyun asked with a hint of suspicion." So what was your reason for killing Cui Hongshu? There must be a reason for killing someone, right

Reason? Haha - "Wei Shi's face was grim and her facial features were almost twisted:" Three years ago, my sister was tortured to death by Cui Hongshu and a few playboys at the Education Bureau

She's only thirteen years old! I've already gathered enough money to redeem her! They're all a bunch of animals! A bunch of animals that deserve nothing in death

Jiang Hanyun's expression was taken aback, then she lowered her gaze and waved her sleeve slightly, saying, "Take the people away! Chief Situ, please send someone to send them to the Sixth Circuit as soon as possible. In addition, allocate a few elite personnel to search Miss Wei's boudoir with me

Wei Shi let out a miserable laugh and allowed several constables who came over to put the chains around her. And just as she was being escorted by a few people towards the outside door, Li Xuan suddenly shouted, 'Wait a minute.'.

He looked coldly at Wei Shi and said, "I want to know why Miss Wei framed Li? We have no grievances or grudges

It was just a whim, and I happened to see you in conflict with him, and I happened to be present

Wei Shi didn't even look back at Li Xuan and continued to pace outward, while Li Xuan frowned slightly and had a gloomy expression.

At this moment, on the fourth floor of the Moon Tower, a graceful figure stepped into Wei Shi's residence, the 'Poetic Residence'.

Strangely enough, the corridor on the fourth floor was guarded by yamen guards, yet she was completely unaware of her presence.

The woman first glanced inside the room, then turned her gaze to a bronze mirror. As she lifted her sleeve and brushed it, the originally smooth and bare mirror suddenly ignited with a sinister flame, revealing a line of words - 'You wish to repay me, I regret not yet.'.

Idiot

The woman sneered and walked towards the window facing the river. And just as she stepped out of the window sill and jumped down to a fishing boat on the river. The eight characters on the mirror have completely disappeared without a trace, leaving no trace behind.
