Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 676 Someone else
Zeng Tai thought for a long time, then raised his head and said, "Could it be that when Sun Xiwang stabbed Yan Shi with the scissors, Yan Shi did grab the scissors with both hands like I did just now.

However, Sun Xiwang was a man after all, and he used all his strength this time, so that Yan couldn't hold the scissors firmly, and the scissors pierced into his body through the gap between his hands.

Then, Sun Xiwang stabbed more than ten times in a row, resulting in Yan's death. Only then did Yan's hands hang down? "

At this time, Wang Mang said: "That is to say, her hand hangs down after she was killed."

Zeng Tai nodded and said, "Exactly."

Wang Mang said: "If this is the case, shouldn't her hands be stained with blood?"

Zeng Tai was at a loss for words, and thought for a while before saying, "Not bad."

At this time, Di Renjie said: "Besides, the dead man's limbs are very stiff, you should know that."

Zeng Tai nodded.

Di Renjie went on to say: "If Mrs. Yan had resisted before his death, then the arms and fingers of the dead body would never be as drooping and relaxed as they are now.

Most likely, the arm is raised, the fingers are flexed, or something similar. "

Zeng Tai said: "It makes sense. Teacher, what do you and Jing Yang think? Why didn't Yan Shi respond?"

Wang Mang and Di Renjie looked at each other, and Di Renjie nodded slightly: "Jing Yang, tell me your opinion."

Wang Mang first looked back at the lantern on the table, and then said: "There is only one explanation, and that is because the lights in the house suddenly went out before the scissors pierced Yan's body and killed him."

Zeng Tai asked in surprise: "What, the lamp, the lamp is off?"

Di Renjie nodded and said: "Jing Yang is right. Because of this, Yan Shi did not see the scissors stabbing himself in the dark, so of course he would not react. Besides, there are other reasonable explanations ?"

Zeng Tai nodded slowly and said: "Yes, at present, this is the only explanation. But who turned off the lantern?"

Di Renjie said: "This is the second doubt. If it was really Sun Xiwang who killed Yan Shi out of anger, think about it, would he run to the table to turn off the lantern before killing him, and then run back to assassinate Yan Shi?" What about Yan Shi's death?"

Wang Mang thought for a moment, then looked at Zeng Tai.

Zeng Tai shook his head slowly and said, "Impossible, this kind of behavior is too unreasonable."

Wang Mang asked: "If he didn't turn off the lantern, then who did it?"

Zeng Tai said: "Could it be that the wind blows out the lamp?"

Di Renjie pointed to the wind lamp on the table and said: "The folks call this kind of lamp the qi death wind, and it must be a strong wind that can blow it out.

We had been having a banquet with He Wuqi in the back garden last night, and there was no wind blowing outside.

Furthermore, if you carefully recall the location of the wind lanterns at that time, one is not in front of the door, and the other is not next to the window, but placed by the wall, even if there is a strong wind, it is impossible to blow it out.

Moreover, I took off the lampshade to try it out. The lampshade is surrounded by thick silk, and the wind cannot blow through it at all. "

Wang Mang and Zeng Tai looked at each other, and they nodded slowly.

Di Renjie asked: "In that case, how did the lights go out?"

Zeng Tai was surprised: "Could it be, could it be that there is a third person present?"

Di Renjie said: "Let's not jump to conclusions yet. The third doubtful point..."

As he spoke, Di Renjie looked at Wang Mang.

Wang Mang smiled slightly.He walked to the table, picked up the scissors on the table and said, "My lord, the third doubt you mentioned is the scissors that killed Yan Shi."

Di Renjie nodded with a smile.

Zeng Tai asked, "What's suspicious about the scissors?"

Wang Mang said: "Brother Zeng, the scissors at the scene has a bloody handprint, have you noticed?"

Zeng Tai said: "Yes. It's a bloody handprint on the left hand."

Wang Mang nodded and said, "The problem is not whether the bloody handprint is left-handed or right-handed, but its position is very strange."

As he said that, he picked up the scissors in his hand and said while gesticulating, "You all saw it at the scene. There was a clear bloody handprint of the left hand on the curved outer handle of the scissors."

Zeng Tai nodded and said, "Yes, I saw it. Isn't Sun Xiwang a left-hander?"

Wang Mang said: "Again, the problem is not whether the bloody handprint is the left hand or the right hand, but the position of the handprint is very unreasonable."

Zeng Tai asked: "Oh, why is it unreasonable?"

Wang Mang handed the scissors to Zeng Tai and said, "If you were Sun Xiwang, how would you use the scissors to stab someone to death?"

Zeng Tai took the scissors, inserted the glove into the outer circle of the arc, and stabbed forward: "Of course this is the way to use the force."

Wang Mang nodded and said, "Then, where should the bloody handprint be?"

Zeng Tai said: "It should be within the glove!"

Wang Mang said, "Not bad."

Zeng Tai asked puzzledly: "Jing Yang, is there blood in the glove of the scissors?"

Wang Mang said: "Of course. Because the murderer stabbed Yan Shi to death with the scissors in his glove.

This is what my lord and I believe to be suspicious. If the murderer is really Sun Xiwang, he held the glove and stabbed Yan Shi to death, but why did he leave a bloody handprint on the curved outer circle of the glove? ? "

Zeng Tai said: "Then, maybe Sun Xiwang stabbed Yan Shi to death with the outer ring of the scissors?"

At this time, Di Renjie smiled and said, "Give it a try and see if you can use your strength."

Zeng Tai took the scissors and grasped the curved outer ring of the scissors with his open hand. Because the outer ring was too large, his fingers could not close together, so the grip was not firm in his hand.

Zeng Tai tried to poke at the table leg, and the scissors immediately crooked.

He raised his head and said: "If you don't exert any force like this, the scissors will be crooked when you encounter resistance."

Di Renjie nodded and said, "The skin of the human body is very tough, not to mention that the deceased is still wearing clothes. Think about it, can you stab a dozen deep wounds on the human body by holding the scissors like this?"

Zeng Tai nodded and said: "It makes sense. It can be concluded that the murderer must have stabbed Yan Shi to death with the inner ring of the scissors."

"Not bad!"

Wang Mang and Di Renjie looked at each other, and they nodded.

Di Renjie took the scissors and said with gestures: "If Sun Xiwang kills Yan Shi, after the killing, just let go and throw the scissors on the ground.

But why do you need to hold the outer ring of the scissors with your left hand to leave your own bloody fingerprints? Isn't this superfluous and unreasonable? "

Zeng Tai said: "Then teacher, why do you say?"

Di Renjie didn't answer, he looked at Wang Mang: "Jing Yang, what do you think?"

Wang Mang said in a deep voice, "Because the real murderer forced Sun Xiwang to do this!"

"What? Really, the real murderer?"

Di Renjie nodded: "Yes, these doubts can only show that the real murderer is not Sun Xiwang, but someone else."

"Also, someone else..."

Zeng Tai was shocked.
