Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 504 One day time limit

"Even if Hongmei wasn't killed by you, but you killed A'Zhu and Juzi, just because of this, I can chop you up and feed them to the dogs!" Zhang Wenyuan cursed viciously.

"Zhang Wenyuan! I didn't kill anyone! I didn't kill A'Zhu! When A'Zhu died, I was with you all the time. Don't you forget?" Ueda Takashi shouted.

Conan glanced at him, and said in a deep voice, "But you also left Zhenbao Pavilion before, didn't you?"

"Yes, I did leave, but I also said that it was because I was unwell that I went to the latrine. This does not mean that I am a murderer!" Ueda Takashi argued.

Conan folded his hands on his chest and said, "You said you went to the latrine, but who can prove it? Take a step back, even if someone can prove that you went to the latrine, it's hard to guarantee that you didn't go to the latrine while you were there." Xiyuan killed A'Zhu. After all, from Dongyuan to Xiyuan, half a stick of incense is enough time to make a round trip."

"This..." Ueda Takashi was stunned for a moment. He looked at Conan, then at Li Canghai, and said angrily, "You guys are spitting blood! Who would go to the latrine and ask someone to watch you? And I really did After going to the latrine, I can swear to God Amaterasu!"

"If God Amaterasu knew what you did in the Central Plains, he would be ashamed of you! How dare you swear by the name of God Amaterasu? Hmph!" Conan's face suddenly fell, and he flicked his sleeves violently. He drank coldly.

"Okay! I've already asked all the questions that should be asked, can I kill him now?" Zhang Wenyuan said angrily.

Li Canghai glanced at him, and said indifferently: "If Yuanwai trusts me, let him take his life first. Give me three days, and I will definitely find out the murderer and give you an explanation."

"Immortal Chief! The matter is already very clear, the murderer is Ueda Takashi, let me kill him first for revenge before talking about anything else!" Zhang Wenyuan gritted his teeth.

"In addition to the staff, I said that there are still many mysteries unsolved. These mysteries are related to breaking the evil. If the mysteries are not solved, the evil will be difficult to break." Speaking of this, Li Canghai paused deliberately, and said in a deep voice: " Moreover, I suspect that Yuanwai has never had any heirs, which has a lot to do with this case."

Hearing that the matter was related to his heir, Zhang Wenyuan's heart tensed suddenly, and he asked, "What's the relationship?"

Li Canghai frowned slightly, and said: "I don't know what the relationship is right now, but I hope that the staff can give me a few days so that I can investigate."

Zhang Wenyuan bowed his head and pondered for a moment, he could not care about other things, but if it was about the offspring of the Zhang family, he had to care.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Wenyuan looked at Li Canghai and said, "Okay! I'll give you this chance, but the time limit is only one day. If the Immortal Elder can't find out the reason before sunset tomorrow, I'll kill the bastard first! "

Ueda Takashi almost didn't cry when he heard the words, and cursed in his heart: This magic stick can't find the murderer, you should kill him, why do you still want to kill me?What kind of fucking logic is this?

But he just murmured these words in his heart, but he didn't dare to really say them.

He has dealt with Zhang Wenyuan for several years, so it can be said that he knows him very well.

On the surface, Zhang Wenyuan looks like a friendly businessman who makes money, but in fact he is a cruel, cold-blooded and ruthless person. He only has interests in his eyes.Anyone is dispensable to him, even the few concubines who have been with him for more than ten years.They were killed, Zhang Wenyuan was not too sad, but more angry when his power and ability were challenged.

Now I have not only become a murderer, but I have also given him a green hat for several years. If I yell at him again at this time, I don't have to wait until tomorrow, I am afraid that I will completely disappear from the world in a short time.

At this time, Ueda Takashi suddenly found that the magic stick that he had always looked down upon had become his only hope, so he hurriedly cast his eyes on Li Canghai for help.

Li Canghai didn't even look at him, and nodded directly to Zhang Wenyuan, "Okay! One day at a time, before sunset tomorrow, I will definitely find the murderer and give the staff an explanation!"

Ueda Takashi was stunned for a moment, Li Canghai promised to find the murderer one day, didn't he say that he only lived one more day?He hurriedly yelled: "Immortal Chief, this day is a bit rushed! Three people have died here, and it will take three days no matter what!"

Zhang Wenyuan glared at Ueda Takashi angrily, and cursed angrily: "Shut up, I! I let you live one more day to show mercy. If you are not satisfied, I will kill you now to avenge Ah Zhu and the others. Come here, lock this guy up in the woodshed and keep him under strict supervision!"

Two vicious guards came over immediately, and they held Takashi Ueda and dragged him out like a dead pig.

After everyone left, Conan frowned and said, "Brother Li, do you believe what Ueda Takashi said? This person is by no means a good person. The reason why he said this is just to excuse himself."

"How do you say that?" Li Canghai asked while touching the bridge of his nose.

"First of all, Ueda Takashi had a motive for the murder. He killed Azhu and Juzi to silence them. Secondly, when the crime was committed, everyone had alibi when Azhu was killed. Only he had been to the latrine, and only he had What's more, Juzi was killed in front of our eyes, and we can all see clearly that he is the perpetrator. All signs show that he is the real murderer who killed Ah Zhu and Juzi! So what he said was not for himself Excuse me, but what is it?" Conan said seriously.

Li Canghai rubbed his eyebrows, and said in a deep voice: "What you said is indeed reasonable, but I always feel that things are not as simple as they appear on the surface. Assuming that Ueda Takashi is really the murderer, why did he deliberately show up at the scene after the murder?" Leaving Feng Niang's paintings? What is the purpose of him leaving the scrolls? It seems that there are still many unsolved mysteries, and even if he is convicted, he must find conclusive evidence."

Conan thought for a while, and said: "At first we suspected that the murderer who killed A'Zhu and the murderer who killed Hongmei were two different people, and suspected that this was a copycat killing. We found Fengniang's painting in Hongmei's room. A painting was also found beside A Zhu, and it is very likely that Takashi Ueda did it on purpose to confuse our judgment."

Li Canghai didn't speak. He frowned and said, "I don't know why, but I always feel that the appearance of these paintings is too coincidental. The three paintings are all made by Feng Niang, and they all appeared at the scene of the murder. Ueda Even if Gao Zhi wants to imitate the first case, there is no need to pick out Fengniang's paintings, there are so many paintings there, just take any one."

"Do you suspect that this matter has something to do with Feng Niang?" Conan mused while crossing his arms and rubbing his chin.
