Dali Temple has his Lord Luo

Chapter 149 How to enter the house
Luo Ning looked at everyone:

"From the investigation of neighbors and students, it can be ruled out that the murderer killed their whole family because of Zhou Bing, so now, we have to change the direction!"

Luo Ning thought about it and said, "I still want to find out how the murderer entered Zhou Bing's house."

"My lord, what do you deduce?" Song Zhuer asked.

"Dong Wuzuo judged that the time of death was midnight, so why was the window in Zhou Dabao's room open?"

Qin Zhao said: "There are two possibilities. One, the murderer entered from here, and the other, the murderer escaped from here!"

Luo Ning nodded in agreement with Qin Zhao's analysis, and then said:
"In this way, there are two outcomes. When Mrs. Zhou entered Zhou Bing's house this morning, she opened the door to enter, but last night Zhou Bing locked the door.

The first theory is that Zhou Dabao opened the window on the second floor and let the murderer into the house. After the murder, the murderer left through the front door! "

Everyone couldn't believe Luo Ning's words.

Luo Ning then analyzed:
"The second theory is that the murderer is familiar with Zhou Bing. He entered through the gate, opened the gate, and jumped out of the window on the second floor. Or, he opened the window on the second floor and left through the gate!"

But after Luo Ning finished speaking, he also raised a contradiction: "The key point here is Zhou Dabao, he was asleep when he died!"

"Let's put this question aside for now. There are many unreasonable things in the entire scene. Let's investigate them one by one." Qin Zhao said:

"And why did the killer open the window on the second floor? From this point of view, the first possibility is the most likely! I might as well go to the scene and see if there are any other clues under the window on the second floor!"

Luo Ning nodded:

"That's the only way to go. It is very important to figure out how the murderer entered Zhou Bing's house, so that we can deduce the murderer's motives, the relationship with Zhou Bing's family, and then find the suspect!"

Luo Ning remembered something again:
"We found the bloody clothes, bloody footprints, and murder weapon left by the murderer at Zhou Bing's house, which shows that the murderer handled the scene very calmly before leaving!"

The directors were all troubled by the fact that the murderer was so calm. The murderer didn't care about everything that happened and even left many clues.

On the one hand, it shows that the murderer has a strong heart. On the other hand, it can also be believed that the murderer despises the case-solving department of Anyang City. Whether it is Jingzhao Mansion or Dali Temple, he does not take it seriously.

Luo Ning motioned to Yao Huan to bring over the blood-stained clothes. Everyone spread the blood-stained clothes flat, and then they saw clearly that the front chest of the blood-stained clothes was stained with blood.

The blood-stained clothes were not oversized, which was in line with Luo Ning and Qin Zhao's judgment of the murderer. The clothes were [-]% new and were common robes worn by ordinary men. No clues could be found from the blood-stained clothes.

At this time, the Yamen servant of Jingzhao Mansion walked into Dali Temple with the list of Zhou Bing's lost items checked by Mrs. Zhou.

He handed the thing to Luo Ning and said at the same time:

"Master Luo, here are the details. At the same time, the murder weapon found at the scene was confirmed to be not from Zhou Bing's family, but brought here by the murderer himself!"

This news made everyone more convinced that the murderer was well prepared and had a plan, which was completely different from ordinary accidental home invasion and robbery.

Luo Ning picked up the bone-cutting knife. The blood on it had dried, and there were still blood stains on the handle. On the back of the knife, it read: Famous blacksmith shop in the south of the city.
Luo Ning said to Yao Huan:

"Yao Sizhi, go to the blacksmith shop in the south of the city and see if there is any sales record for this bone-cutting knife?"

"Wei Sizhi, you and Zhu'er are going to visit Zhou Dabao's friends, and see how the child's temperament is. Is there anything particularly noteworthy?"

At this time, Luo Ning opened the item list sent by the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen and read it carefully.

Not many things were lost in the Zhou Bing family. Mrs. Zhou only knew that there would be some broken silver in the cabinet in the hall, but it is gone now.

Although Zhou Bing and Yang Li's rooms were messy, nothing was actually missing.

Yang Li's jewelry box was opened. After on-site investigation, the murderer took out all the jewelry boxes and threw them on the ground. Later, they were sorted and found by the government officials.

So after Mrs. Zhou's identification and verification, she only found that Zhou Bingjia had lost some broken silver, and the amount was not large.

Luo Ning looked at Qin Zhao and pointed at the record:
"It feels like the murderer is not looking for anything, he just makes the scene look messy!"

"This is a headache. The murderer is bold, careful, has a certain ability to judge, and knows the direction of our investigation. It's very difficult!"

Qin Zhao spoke out Luo Ning's thoughts.

There are many clues now, but none of them are helpful to the direction of the case, and it even makes everyone confused.

For the first time, Luo Ning vaguely felt that the murderer was fighting wits and courage with her.

"Meng Sizhi, go visit Zhou Bing's house again, especially the common people who have provided more clues today, and talk more to see if there are any ideas and suspects!"

Luo Ning looked at the roll of paper he recorded:
"If the murderer was not let in by Zhou Dabao, but by Zhou Bing, if it is Zhou Bing, he must be an acquaintance!"

Everyone continued to investigate the case, and Luo Ning and Qin Zhao came to Zhou Bing's house again.

Entering again, I was still as confused as the first time.

Luo Ning felt unhappy:
"Almost four hours have passed since the case occurred. The scene has been investigated, but there is no clue at all!"

"I vaguely feel that the murderer is misleading us!" Qin Zhao also frowned and said in confusion:
"The clues are contradictory in many places, don't you think?"

"That's it. The murderer left too many clues, but none of them are meaningful!"

"Don't be impatient, take your time, let's clear your mind and return to the scene!"

Qin Zhao's words comforted Luo Ning.

Yes, don't be impatient.

Zhou Bing's family has been isolated with hemp ropes. Except for a yamen servant from Jingzhao Mansion guarding the door, it is already very depressed at this time.

There is a wall between this place and Mrs. Zhou next door, so it is very quiet now.

Luo Ning started from the door and checked the door lock again. It was fine. Regardless of whether the murderer entered through the window or the door, there was no problem here.

The murderer was either familiar with Zhou Bing and was welcomed in by Zhou Bing, or he left through the gate.

Luo Ning looked at the wall of Zhou Bingjia's courtyard again and asked Qin Zhao:

"Master Qin, will the murderer climb over the wall and get in?"

Qin Zhao walked outside the door, looked at the courtyard wall again, and shook his head:

"There is no focus, and the courtyard wall is relatively high. I remember that the murderer was only as tall as my shoulders, and he was carrying a bone-cutting knife. It's impossible!"

Qin Zhao denied Luo Ning's speculation, and the two of them continued to walk to the main entrance.

There were few people at this time, and Luo Ning looked carefully again, and then he discovered that there was an unclear bloody footprint on the corridor between the courtyard door and the main room.

"Master Qin, look!"

Qin Zhao squatted down and lowered his head, seeing the toe of the shoe print facing the door, and said to Luo Ning with certainty:

"It seems that the murderer left through the gate!"

"But why is there only one vague footprint in such a brutal scene?" Luo Ning asked.

"Just like Wang Hu did before, he cleaned himself up after committing the crime, so he left the bloody clothes!"

Luo Ning nodded: "This also means that the murderer tried on Zhou Dabao's clothes because he wanted to find suitable clothes to leave?"
