Daxuanti criminal officer

Chapter 102 Who is the real murderer?

"It's a kind of mosquito-repellent incense mixed with grass powder and fruit," Changping Hou Lu Jinlong said. "The price is low, the quality is low, and it is no longer used now. How can children of your age see it?"

"Us?" Unexpectedly, the girl in blue clothes said unconvinced, "I'm already 15 years old. This happened ten years ago. I already have me. Don't joke about our young age, Lord Hou!" !"

"No, I made a mistake," Lu Jinlong hastily changed his words, "I mean, you all come from wealthy families, and you will never have seen this kind of mosquito-repellent incense.

"Xu Tixing," he turned to introduce to Xu Zun, "Although this mosquito coil is effective in killing mosquitoes, it is extremely choking.

"Even ten years ago, it was mostly used in temples and Buddhist halls. Families with better economic conditions would not use it. Now it is almost extinct in Shangyuan City!"

"Oh?" Xu Zun asked hurriedly, "Then how can Lord Hou be so clear?"

"Hmm...cough cough..." Chang Pinghou coughed, winked at Xu Zun, then turned to Lu Mingyue and said, "How is it, Mingyue? I've already made my case clear, you guys Can we go back now?"

"No, no, no," Lu Mingyue waved his hands, and all the ladies shook their heads, "We haven't understood yet!"

"Little sister," Xu Zun already understood what Master Hou meant, and immediately said to Lu Mingyue, "You must be honest in life. It is rare for Master Hou to condescend to come to the county office to explain the case. Now that you have explained it clearly, you should go back first." !"

What's interesting is that when Xu Zun was talking to Lu Mingyue, he even winked at Lu Mingyue.

"Oh..." Lu Mingyue was clever, and instantly understood Xu Zun's meaning.

Obviously, Master Hou still has some important things to say, but he can't say them in front of these girls.

Therefore, only if she avoids it temporarily, can Master Hou speak clearly.

"Okay," Lu Mingyue stood up, and said to the sisters, "Then let's go back first! Don't worry, I will notify you when Brother Xu finds out something! Let's go, let's go Bar……"

"Ladies and gentlemen," Xu Zun did not forget to remind, "Recently, there have been frequent crimes in Shangyuan City, please pay attention to safety."

"Hehehe..."

When Xu Zun said this, the girls all laughed, it was the first time they heard the fashionable title of "Miss Sister".

As soon as the girls left, Wei Beihui immediately followed out to protect their safety.

"Huh..." Seeing the girl leave, Master Hou let out a heavy breath, and said to Xu Zun, "It's finally quiet! Xu Tixing, now you know how lively my Hou Mansion is usually?"

"Miss Lu is very heroic," Xu Zun said with a smile, "she will be a heroine in the future!"

"Oh, that's not what a father like me would like to see," Lu Jinlong sighed, and said, "If her grandmother didn't intervene frequently, Mingyue wouldn't have such a personality. I would rather she be a lady of the family."

"Master Hou," Xu Zun knew that it would be useless to talk about this kind of family topic, so he went straight to the topic and asked, "You seem to have something to say just now, don't you?"

"Hmm..." Lu Jinlong said, "I only found out about that kind of mosquito-repellent incense after I met Monk Lian Kong.

"Back then, this kind of incense was used in Lian Kong's residence. It has a very strong grassy and fruity fragrance, which is easy to remember.

"It is said that although this fragrance is a bit choking, it can refresh one's mind. Monk Liankong translates scriptures every night, so he is very dependent on this fragrance."

Oh……

Xu Zun thought for a moment and asked:

"Hou Ye, in your opinion, is Monk Lian Kong wronged? Is he really a monk-clothes killer?"

"If you say that I don't care about that case, I'm afraid you won't believe it either," Lu Jinlong said with a faint smile, "But... if you say I care, it really doesn't matter.

"When I was in the prison, I also asked the monk Liankong a few times, and he only said that he had committed a serious crime, violated the Buddha's will, and committed a serious crime that cannot be forgiven.

"Thus, judging from his attitude, he should be the monk-robed killer, but..." Lu Jinlong frowned, "The reason he gave to the officials was completely wrong!"

"Oh?" Xu Zun asked hurriedly, "How did you see that?"

"I heard from the governor of Tai County that Lian Kong murdered people based on the verses in the "Ci Luo Sutra", to save those women who have fallen into the evil of reincarnation!
"It also said that it is necessary to cleanse the sins and help them die, so the internal organs of the deceased must be cleaned... Tsk tsk..." Lu Jinlong shook his head and said, "This is completely nonsense and is against the Buddha's will.

"The "Ciluo Sutra" does have records about reincarnation, but no matter which gatha, you need to clean up your sins!

"And the so-called self-care refers to emptying desires and purifying the heart. I never said that I want to save others. As an eminent monk, how can Lian Kong not understand this truth?"

Oh?That's it?

Xu Zun felt that he was plunged into a fog again, and it was difficult to find the direction.

"Master Hou," Xu Zun looked around and asked in a low voice, "Do you think there were any problems when this case was tried?"

"I understand, you want to say that you want to frame and harm, and torture is a trick?" Lu Jinlong waved his hand and said, "You can rest assured about this, I know Tai Min well, he is timid, and he would never dare to tamper with such a big case." of!
"Besides, if you really want to frame the blame, there is no need to blame an eminent monk, right?"

"Well, that makes sense."

Xu Zun also thought so before. It seems that there were no problems in the trial of the case or Lian Kong's confession.

"Master Hou," Xu Zun asked again, "You said that Lian Kong was translating Buddhist scriptures when he committed the crime. Could his case be related to those Buddhist scriptures?"

"Oh, this is just..." Lu Jinlong frowned and shook his head again and again, "The "Magajalen Sutra" and "Aike Buddha Sutra" are all about the highest Buddhist thoughts, although they are only broken. Volume, but it is almost all-encompassing! It’s hard to say, it’s hard to say..."

"Then..." Xu Zun asked again, "At that time, who else did Lian Kong have a good relationship with? Is there anyone who is particularly close? For example, senior brothers, apprentices? Or... relatives?"

"Well..." Lu Jinlong recalled, "Lian Kong is pure-hearted, introverted, and has a good relationship with the monks in the temple.

"Brothers, I don't know too well, but the disciples really don't have any. After all, no one wants to spend a lot of time and thought on translating scriptures.

"As for relatives, there are no relatives. Ben Hou heard that," Lu Jinlong said, "Lian Kong lived in Huguo Temple since he was a child, so he should never have any relatives?"

After saying this, the scene fell into a brief silence.

Both sides have their own thoughts.

"Xu Tixing," Lu Jinlong said to Xu Zun after pondering for a long while, "It stands to reason that it is not for the Marquis to ask about the case.

"However, since I have come and said so much, I wonder if you can solve a doubt for me?"

"Oh? Lord Hou, please tell me!"

"The two cases of Huguo Temple and Luohan Temple," Lu Jinlong asked solemnly, "are you sure that it was the monk's clothes killer who did it back then?

"If it can be confirmed, it means that Lian Kong was a scapegoat back then!
"If not, then someone imitated!"

"This..." Xu Zun replied, "Don't hide it from Lord Hou, it's not completely sure yet."

"How is it possible?" Lu Jinlong was puzzled, "Then Ju Ran handled the case all those years ago, so he wouldn't be able to see if it was the real murderer's work?"

"Lord Hou," Xu Zun thought for a while and explained, "We can only say that the modus operandi is almost identical, but we cannot be 100% sure that it is the monk-cloth killer himself!"

"Ah?" Lu Jinlong was surprised, "Is there such a thing? This case is so bizarre!

"Xu Tixing, since the methods are almost the same, even if someone imitates, it must be someone who is very familiar with the case, right?"

Hey?
In a word, Xu Zun's eyes immediately brightened.

Lu Jinlong was right. If the murderer wasn't the real murderer back then, and he wasn't someone who was close to Lian Kong, then... he must be someone who knows a lot about the case of the female monk's corpse!
Who is this person? ! ?
