Chapter 102 The Lame Old Man
"Dude, come here."

"What is the order of the guest officer?"

"Go and call all the customers in the store, I have something to ask."

"Ok."

"Dead Man's Inn" is a small shop with only a dozen rooms in total. The location of the small shop is very lonely, so there are very few customers coming and going.

It wasn't long before the buddy called everyone over.

"Except for the mortician, are all the shopkeepers here?"

The shopkeeper took a look.

"It's all here."

Since there are not many customers who come to the store, the shopkeeper and the shop assistants don't need to look at the account book to know whether there are any people there.

Jiang Chen carefully observed the faces of these people, and found that the faces of these people were all normal, Jiang Chen looked at their hands again, the fingers were also normal, none of them had an extra finger.

"Boss, are you sure all the customers in the store are here?"

"Yeah, except for the mortician, everyone who stayed here yesterday."

Jiang Chen frowned slightly, could it be that the morticians really did it, it's impossible, their fingers are all normal.

An ordinary murder case turned out to be confusing, whether the murderer was a hotel guest or someone outside.

In this Jianghu martial arts world, there are many people who know martial arts, and there are many people who have the ability to enter the inn quietly. If this is the case, there is no need to investigate this murder case.

Just when Jiang Chen was about to leave and return to his room, he suddenly heard:

"Shopkeeper, didn't an old man come here yesterday, walking with a limp, with a cane in his hand, he didn't come."

"What are you thinking? That old man can't walk steadily. How could he kill him?"

"It's true, a frail old man and a strong middle-aged man."

Jiang Chen didn't think so, the old man in ancient times looked so weak that he might be a martial arts master.

Besides, all kinds of killing methods emerge in endlessly in the rivers and lakes. If you use fans and smoke to make people confused first, and then commit murder, it can also be done.

"Which room does he live in?"

"I met him just now, and he said he was going to lead the donkey and was leaving."

"Take me to him quickly."

"Oh."

Seeing Jiang Chen's terrifying aura, he immediately took Jiang Chen to find the crippled old man.

When I came to the stable, I didn't see the old man and the donkey.

"We chase, he must not run far."

Jiang Chen used lightness kung fu to chase after him, the guy was about to turn around and chase after him, but he found that he had disappeared.

The guy thought he had encountered a ghost during the day, so he was so frightened that he hurried back to the shop.

Jiang Chen's figure was like a ray of breeze passing by, that figure came and went on the road, really erratic, as fast as a ghost.

There was a flash of a figure, and Jiang Chen's figure appeared on a tree. Jiang Chen climbed up and looked into the distance, looking around, and finally saw an old man riding a donkey in a hurry.

Jiang Chen's figure swooped down from the tree, and quickly chased after him.

It only took a few breaths to catch up.

The old man was driving the donkey away with a rope whip, when he suddenly found a young man standing on the road.

"Donkey~"

The donkey stopped.

"Young man, why are you blocking my way?"

"There was a murder in the inn, did you know?"

"I heard about it in the morning. Why did the murderer find it?"

"Please take out your hands, let me see if there is blood on your hands."

"You don't suspect that it was my old man who did it, right? I am an old man, how can I do it better than a middle-aged man in the prime of life?"

"Since you didn't do it, how do you know that the deceased is in the prime of life?"

"This... I heard from the people at the inn."

"Then please show your hand."

He thought that his hands had already been washed anyway, so what if he saw them, he raised his hands confidently.

When he raised his hands, Jiang Chen saw that there was an extra finger on his right hand, and saw Jiang Chen showing a weird smile.

"why are you laughing."

"Sure enough, you are the murderer."

"What are you talking about, my hands are not stained with blood."

"It is true that your hands are not stained with blood, but you have an extra finger on your right hand."

"What's the meaning."

"There are eleven finger prints on the neck of the deceased, which means that the murderer has one more finger than ordinary people."

Looking at the old man's long nails, Jiang Chen was even more sure that it was him.

"I was negligent. I accidentally saw a lot of money in his package on the road. At that time, I became greedy. Taking advantage of the thunder and rain last night, I saw a rare opportunity, so I killed him."

"Thunderstorm weather can indeed cover up the sound of your fighting, but how did your physical condition strangle him to death?"

"How can I strangle him to death? In fact, it is very easy for me to kill him. The reason why I use this method is to put the blame on the mortician and make everyone mistakenly think that it was done by zombies. I didn't expect you to observe carefully. Most people don't Dare to see the corpse."

"You did manage to misunderstand everyone. You just said that you could kill him easily. Could it be that you possess martial arts?"

"Haha, of course, think about what I did before, why bother to deceive others, I will kill if I want, I am not afraid of anyone, the government can do nothing to me."

He flew up from the donkey, and then landed, his body is strong and his light work is good, it seems that he is indeed a master.

But in Jiang Chen's eyes, he is a master who is stronger than Tie Xinlan, so he has no pressure at all.

Jiang Chen saw that his legs were solid, not a single leg was superficial.

"Dude said you had a disabled leg, now it looks like your leg is normal, you've been faking it since the beginning."

"Yes, I just want everyone not to associate the murderer with me."

"You did succeed."

"I succeeded, but I'm also stupid, just grab it directly, why elaborate design."

"Because you are bored, you want to play games in the world, and you want to see them being played around by you."

"Haha, you still know me."

"At my age, alone, what else can I do except play in the world."

"It's just that you kill people casually and base your happiness on the pain of others. You are really a villain."

"Whatever you say, you will die later anyway."

"Really, you are so confident that you can kill me."

"I've practiced for decades. You don't look very old. No matter how strong your inner strength is, how can you be so strong?"

"Not only are you not smart, you're also a little bit arrogant."

The old man was a bit hunchbacked, and he pulled out a machete from his back. The machete is not easy to get stuck in the bones when it passes through the human body under high-speed impact conditions. It is extremely suitable for cavalry, and Mongolian cavalry use it in close combat.

He pulled out the scimitar, and the scimitar gave off a cold light. The shape of this scimitar is a bit like a "full moon scimitar", the length is not very long, and a dragon is engraved on the blade of the scimitar.

Jiang Chen's eyes were flickered by the light of the scimitar, it wasn't the light of the knife, but the sunlight reflected on the blade and reflected into his eyes.

Taking advantage of Jiang Chen's turning his head, he rushed forward, but the time to breathe was already in front of him.
