The Republic of China Conspiracy Records

Chapter 221 Unraveling the Link (10)

Could it be that all of this is also part of Bu Xiangkong's plan?I couldn't help but my heart moved, and then I remembered another thing. Before I went to Jindi, Ji Mingmei was still muttering that she wanted to go with me, but Bu Xiangkong stopped her.This shows that Ji Mingmei didn't know that this was Bu Xiangkong's game, and naturally she wouldn't be his accomplice.

Of course, this is just my conjecture.But if my guess is right, then if I tell Jindi Guyin's whereabouts now, it is very likely that Bu Xiangkong's big event will be ruined; but if my guess is wrong, then if I don't say it, it is possible Helped Bu Xiangkong to cheat the Jindi, and even cheated myself.

I fell into hesitation for a while, and Li Yu was relieved when he saw that I didn't speak. When I saw this, I naturally became more and more sure of the meaning of his wink. Finally, my lips moved, but I didn't say anything.I don't know what kind of situation Bu Xiangkong is in, but the situation is now a deadlock for me.

No matter how you look at it, this game is not friendly to me, but I am still cooperating with it.The reason for this may be that in my heart, I still hope that Ji Mingmei and Bu Ying have not betrayed me.However, if things are not as I thought in the end, then I will die by my own hands!
I took a deep breath and let Li Yu grab my arm and walk out.Jindi stood still and didn't follow. Li Yu walked a few steps and saw that she hadn't moved, so he stopped and frowned and asked, "Why, what else don't you see clearly?"

"I see clearly," Jindi replied, not looking at Li Yu and me, but at the pit where Shu Xu was buried, "But I suddenly thought of a possibility that could explain why Shu Xu's body moved. , but in the 'cell' there was no one who could move the dead body."

"Oh? It seems that you have found this person?" Li Yu's eyes flashed, "Where is he hiding at that time?"

"The possibility I'm talking about is that there was no such person here at that time." Jin Di came over and stood in front of Li Yu, leaning forward slightly, with a quiet and serious expression on his face.

"Since there is no such person, then you also admit that he is lying?" Li Yu said with a smile, "This is the best way. If you decide who is the murderer earlier, you can go back earlier."

"He didn't lie, and he wasn't a murderer." Jin Di shook his head.

"Since there was no one who moved the corpse, and he didn't lie, could it be that the corpse crawled out of the ground by itself?" Li Yu looked at her with interest.

"You're right and wrong. The corpse did crawl into the pit by itself, but it didn't crawl out of the ground."

"It didn't crawl out of the ground, did it fall from the sky?" Li Yu felt that what she said was getting more and more funny, so he couldn't help laughing again.I also looked at her inexplicably, and I suspected that she was talking nonsense.But what's the use of talking nonsense?
Li Yu spoke with sarcasm, but Jin Di didn't feel annoyed, and said slowly: "Of course a corpse can't crawl by itself, but what if Shu Xu wasn't a corpse when he crawled?"

As soon as she said this, I shuddered and said in a trembling voice: "That's right! Only in this way can I explain why the corpse was moved, but I couldn't find the person who moved the corpse, because the corpse moved by itself when it was alive We all thought that Shu Xu was killed by someone, but we ignored a possibility—he committed suicide!"

Hearing what we said, Li Yu suddenly fell silent, and asked after a while: "I don't care how Shu Xu died, but he said that there was no one here when he came in. So, how did a big living person suddenly die?" Show up here, and then kill yourself?"

This is also beyond my comprehension. I did not see Shu Xu when I came in. How did he hide here from my eyes and ears?Although there is a bed inside, the bed is only made of a few bricks, and the distance between the bed board and the ground is only one or two fingers, so there is no way to hide people.

So where was Shu Xu hiding at that time?

Jin Di was questioned by Li Yu, smiled slightly, and suddenly stretched out a finger to point to the sky.Li Yu and I were a little dumbfounded for a moment, how dare she answer that Shu Xu fell from the sky?What... what, I only heard that sister Lin would fall from the sky, but I didn't know that a man would fall from the sky.Besides, this man is old enough to have a "mouse beard", even if Sister Lin disguises herself, she won't have such a virtue!
Jin Di naturally also saw our doubts, and said softly: "Shu Xu was hiding on the beam at that time."

I followed her fingers to look at the beam, and a spider thread was hanging from the beam at this moment. A spider did not shy away from the reputation of being a gentleman on the beam, and it landed slowly under our eyes, and then fled from our eyes in a grandiose manner.When I saw this, I suddenly realized that it was because Jin Di saw this spider that he thought of Shu Xu's hiding place, and at the same time deduced that he committed suicide.

Jin Di was born in several departments of the Six Arts Association, and is best at planning and planning, and his thoughts are beyond the reach of ordinary people, so the truth about the cause of Shu Xu's death was deduced from just a spider's thread.And if what she deduced is true, then it can explain one thing, that is why the traces of the corpse being dragged start from the aisle, because he landed on the aisle after he got off the beam, and the aisle is where he was "dragged" "The starting point!

Of course, this is all conjecture right now.Besides, if Shu Xu was hiding on the beam, how would he get down?He can use a ladder when going up, and then have the ladder moved away, but he can't spin silk, so he has to jump down if he wants to get down after going up.

So, he jumped down and then climbed into the pit?The beam was nearly two feet high from the ground, but because the ground was compacted with loess, falling down did not necessarily mean death.But in this way, there will inevitably be traces of falls on Shu Xu's body.

But Li Yu and I had seen Shu Xu's body at that time, and there was no sign of a fall on his body.He was stabbed to death from the back with a dagger, which is why I never thought he would commit suicide. How can these circumstances be explained?Li Yu looked at Jin Di thoughtfully, but didn't speak, so I asked her all these things.

"Being stabbed in the back does not necessarily mean being killed. It is really inconvenient to stab yourself in the back with a knife, but you have forgotten one situation - you can insert the dagger upside down in the soil, and then hit it upwards. Wait until you put the corpse When turned over, the knife handle was pulled out from the soil because the blade had penetrated into the human body. Although the knife handle was covered with soil at this time, since the corpse was on the back, it should have been covered with soil. Remember that the handle of the knife was stuck in the ground before?"

"Then how did he get off the beam?" I asked again, "If he jumped off, the beam is so high that he would definitely be injured. But there are no other injuries on the body, and I checked it at the time."

"It seems difficult to do this, but it is actually very simple." Jin Di replied, "Use a rope to tie a slipknot on the beam, and then go down the rope. Because the rope itself is very rough, after it is tightened It will form enough resistance to prevent the rope from loosening. After the person comes down, the rope will return to a slack state. At this time, as long as the rope is shaken vigorously, the rope can be shaken off from the beam, and then the rope can be retracted. Then people appeared out of nowhere.”

"So now there must be this rope on the body of the corpse?"

"That's not necessarily true. Maybe someone came in before you and took the rope away." Jin Di replied, and gave Li Yu a quiet look.

"If this is the case, what evidence can support what you said?" Li Yu asked calmly.

"It's very simple. There must be a lot of dust accumulated on the beam because almost no one has ever gone up it. Even if Shu Xu once hid on it, he couldn't wipe off all the dust. After the rope rubs against the beam, a rope mark will definitely be formed. Go up and find out if this trace exists, and you will be able to prove what I said."

I was almost overwhelmed when I heard it, Jindi is worthy of being from several departments, this inference is very accurate.After she finished speaking, she looked at Li Yu with a half-smile, and didn't urge him to find someone to move the ladder to check the beam.Li Yu smacked his lips, and suddenly smiled and said, "What you said is quite reasonable. Come here," he called out, "Go find a ladder."

The police guarding outside responded to him, and after a while, he really found a ladder from nowhere, held it up, and asked me to go up to check it first.I went up the ladder step by step, and I saw a rope mark on the beam, so I nodded to the bottom, and then went down the ladder.

After that, several policemen went up to look again, and they all said that they saw traces of the rope, so Jin Di's deduction was immediately irrefutable.Jindi kept a calm face when we went up to check.I felt a little ashamed when I saw it. She had expected me to solve the mystery of Shu Xu's death, but in the end she solved it by herself.

And the crisis I faced with her can be regarded as resolved.

This is the best result for me, no matter whether Bu Xiangkong has any malice towards me or not, at least now I am free from the unpredictable end I may face.Li Yu didn't climb up to the beam to check like everyone else, but after we all got down, he said with a smile: "It seems that there must be a rope on Shu Xu's body, I'll go back and look for it."

"Do you want us to go with you?" Jin Di also asked him with a smile.

"No need." Li Yu laughed, "With so many people testifying, you can definitely find this rope without going."

He admitted in disguise that the rope might have been taken away by him.Li Yu and Bu Xiangkong colluded to make arrangements for us, which I can understand, but why Shu Xu would also participate, and even help them with death, is completely beyond my comprehension.So I asked Jindi: "Shu Xu put so much effort into dying, and even dragged us before he died, why?"

"No reason. He came here for me. The matter of Guhuai Prison has always been difficult for him, and he always thought that so many people stayed there forever because of me."

"Then you proposed the escape plan at that time?"

"Yes. But I just mentioned a possible escape method, but I never encouraged them to do it, and even opposed it."

"It's like you gave Wu You an idea at the time, asking him to publish in the newspaper and break off the engagement with his fiancée? You have always been responsible for proposing solutions, and never encouraged them to do what you said, so everything has nothing to do with you, yes?"

Jin Di took a serious look at me and thought about it, "Yes, in fact, everything has nothing to do with me, doesn't it? People who are killed by a knife cannot blame the knife, and there is no law throughout the ages The knife is guilty, and the one who wields it is guilty. You should understand that."

"But you put the knife into the hands of the knife holder!"

"You're wrong again, I didn't put the knife in anyone's hands, and in fact I fought against them taking it - I just told them there was a knife, what's wrong with that?"

I looked at her peaceful face, and couldn't say a word. After coming over for a while, I said, "Then what about the Wei family's matter? Was it you who brought it up and objected to Xiuhong's doing it?"

"Yes." Jindi still answered naturally, "Besides, even if I am responsible for this matter, the responsibility is all on me and Xiuhong. What has it to do with you? You are the victimized party, so you should take over the Liuyihui. It’s your responsibility to take over.”

"I really don't understand. You not only killed the family who gave birth to me, but also the family who raised me, but you have always expected me to control the Six Arts Club. What is this for? This is irreconcilable Daqiu, will it do you any good if I control the Six Arts?"

"It's no good." Jindi said calmly, "I come from several departments, and I like to plan and control everything by nature. Since the Six Arts Association has withdrawn from interfering in the current situation, I have no use for me, so I have to use this matter to practice my skills."

"You did all this just to practice your hands!" I was trembling with anger.

"Angry is the most useless emotion. If you take control of the Six Arts Club in the future, remember to do less useless things." Jindi said softly.

"So in your heart, everyone and everything can only be divided into useful and useless, right?" I suppressed the anger that had rushed to my head.

"Generally speaking, it is like this." Jin Di replied.

"Then you like Gu Yin, do you think this kind of thing is useful?"

"It works. My liking for him satisfies my emotional needs as a woman. Are you satisfied with this explanation?"
