Chapter 118: Charming and knocking the prince unconscious (3)
Huazhu habitually took out the booklet and began to draw pictures and take notes.

Liao Zicheng stopped by her side, with his shoulder next to hers, very natural and used to it, and pointed to the picture she drew and said: "I remember this place wrong."

"Huh?" Hua Zhu tilted her head, walked around the well, raised her eyebrows, "It's four aloe plants." She drew five plants.

At this time, He Liansheng leaned over, also wanting to see what she drew.

She frowned and moved aside.

Later, Yan Bo also came to look at her. She frowned slightly, but she didn't move.

He Liansheng felt very uncomfortable seeing himself as the most disliked one.

Liao Zicheng finished inspecting the second well, walked towards Hua Zhu, and said with a blank expression: "Tell me about the situation that day, pointing to the location."

"That day was the full moon of Yan Xuzhi and Yan Minzhi. Uncle, aunt, grandpa, grandma, second grandma, sister Shu, sister Hua, Yan Hengzhi, Yan Hui, third grandma, my sister, brother-in-law and I entered the main hall for dinner. , A stage was set up outside the main hall to sing opera. After dinner, my aunt and uncle went back to the courtyard, and my sister went to the gate of the house to check on the opera troupe. The rest of the people came to the purple bamboo forest. Fireworks were set up in a circle, and six servants were in charge of setting off, and the other two A servant woman held firecrackers. The few of us stood in the center of the venue, which is where we are now."

Huazhu pointed to the well where the aloe was planted, "Yan Hengzhi suddenly ran towards the well, and his uncle caught him, and he ran towards the second well. After that, the uncle guarded the well by himself, and asked the third cousin to guard the second well."

"Why let her guard?" Liao Zicheng asked.

"At that time, she was relatively close to there, so I just explained it." Yan Kuan added, "She never likes to get close to people, and she always stands far away when she does everything."

This is true, Leng Rou's temper is indeed too withdrawn.

Hua Zhu remembered the first time she met Leng Rou, it was Leng Rou who fell into the water, it seemed that she was really unlucky.

"Yan Hengzhi asked why he was so interested in the two wells?" Liao Zicheng asked a second question.

Yan Kuan sighed: "I asked him about it afterwards, he was just curious and wanted to see everything. This kid is very skinny."

Liao Zicheng looked at Hua Zhu: "Continue."

"In the back, Yan Hengzhi urged my uncle to set off the fireworks. The uncle ordered that the servants light the fuse, and we watched the sky and waited for the fireworks to be set off. At this time, Yan Hengzhi sneaked to Erjing while we were not on our backs. The third grandma When they found him, they asked Hong Ling to carry him back to Second Mistress. According to Hong Ling, she carried Yan Hengzhi half way away, um..."

Huazhu took some steps towards Erjing, stopped about five meters away from Erjing, and looked down, "That's right here, I pulled out a piece of grass to record it afterwards. She looked back here , I saw the third grandma was exhausted, her legs gave up in fright, and she fell down holding Yan Hengzhi. I heard her cry and looked at her, she protected Yan Hengzhi under her body. Follow her Looking in the direction I looked, I saw the third grandma fell into the bottom of the well with her face up and her back down. At this moment, the fireworks exploded again, like thunder and lightning, we all raised our heads, and we all looked up. I covered my ears, or to be precise, I actually hugged my head. But that was only for a very, very short moment. When we all came back to our senses and rushed over to have a look, there was only a pool of blood and debris left at the bottom of the well. The skull is gone."

Liao Zicheng stood where Huazhu was standing, where Hongling fell for the first time, staring and said: "This place and the two wells are exactly an isosceles triangle."

"What is this indicating?"

"I can't explain anything for the time being." Liao Zicheng took a few steps and asked again, "Since you all raised your heads, according to the instinctive reaction of people following the light source in the dark night, you should turn around when fireworks are lit all around you. In other words, all of you have lost your sense of direction, how can you be sure that you are rushing to see the right well?"

"Hongling, she didn't watch the fireworks. And uncle, he's standing by a well, it's impossible to make a mistake."

Yan Kuan nodded solemnly: "At that time, I actually didn't remember the direction, but I can be sure that Leng Rou never approached where I was standing."

Huazhu took up the conversation again: "Besides, just to be on the safe side, we also checked the well, and there was nothing there, not even the dust at the bottom of the well was touched. That's why we concluded that Hong Ling was right. Erjing is the scene of the crime."

"The maids didn't find anything either?"

"No, they are less responsive than us."

Liao Zicheng pondered for a moment, and there was a trace of sternness in his thick eyebrows and starry eyes: "Call them, let's do a reenactment of the case. First, suppose the murderer hides in the woods, uses palm wind or hidden weapons to drive Leng Rou into the bottom of the well, and then The moment you looked up at the fireworks, you performed lightness kung fu and took her into the purple bamboo forest."

Is this assumption doubting Hong Ling's testimony?Because Hongling kept watching Erjing, she didn't see any suspicious person.

Yan Kuan felt that this way of handling the case was very strange, so he smiled and called the maid and Yu Shishi to the scene, and brought over the unfinished fireworks that night.

Liao Zicheng took out a bag of lime from the toolbox, and drew three circles on the ground: ① the location where everyone watched the fireworks, ② the location where Hong Ling and Yan Xuzhi fell, ③ the location where Hong Ling ran to Erjing and fell the second time. Location.

In the first round, Hua Zhu played Leng Rou, Xiu Yun played Yan Hengzhi, Yu Shishi played Hong Ling, Yan Bo, He Liansheng, Wang Qing, and Wang Heng played other family members watching the fireworks, Yan Kuan was still Yan Kuan, standing Beside a well.

As for the killer, Liu Feng was none other than Liu Feng. I'm afraid that in the entire Northern Qi, there would be no one who was more agile than him.

Yu Shishi knew that she was here to reenact the case, so she carefully brought an identical red cloak, and when she was about to put it on Huazhu, Huazhu raised her eyebrows: "No, the third grandma's is very heavy, isn't this one?" Too light?"

Yu Shishi tied the ribbon for her, and said softly: "Did you remember correctly? This is a cloak I ordered from Mrs. Dong. There are two pieces in total. I gave one to your third cousin. It is made of silk, not It will be heavy."

If it is very heavy, it will not be able to float at that time.Thinking of this, Huazhu puffed her cheeks, and she might have really misread it when she was in the main hall.

Everyone took their positions, Huazhu came to Erjing, opened her eyes wide: "What about the protective measures? Didn't you tell me to really fall like this?" I'll break my ass!
Liao Zicheng jumped into the bottom of the well. Under Huazhu's surprised gaze, he raised his head and stretched out his hands.
