Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 516
Conan's eyes widened, and he said, "I see. The lock is hung on the top and can be opened from the inside. At this time, the girl came out from below, and then hung the lock back to its original place. It turns out that the most complicated thing is the simplest one." , the whole thing is a scam, haha!"

Li Canghai heard Conan's emotion, and suddenly a thunderbolt flashed in his mind!
"The most complicated is the simplest? The whole thing is a scam? The secret room... the copper lock... I understand! I know what's going on!" Li Canghai rubbed his chin, muttered to himself, and suddenly His eyes lit up, and he cried out.

"Brother Li, what do you understand?" Conan asked with some doubts.

Li Canghai didn't answer him, but frowned, lost himself in thought, and said in a low voice, "If that's the case, doesn't it mean that the murderer is him? But what about the motive? He didn't have a motive for killing? What's going on? Hongmei, A'Zhu, Orange... Could it be that there are still people who will die?"

Li Canghai's face suddenly became serious, and he hurriedly said to Conan: "Brother Conan, I want you to help me investigate something. You can ask Facao to help you investigate this matter."

Conan was a little confused, and asked Facao to help. It seems that the matter to be investigated is extremely important!
Conan nodded without the slightest hesitation, Li Canghai leaned close to his ear and whispered something softly, after Conan finished listening, he quickly left his side.

It was not long before Li Canghai returned to the Zhang family's courtyard, and it was only two hours before the sun set.

After returning to the Zhang family courtyard, Li Canghai immediately went to Hongmei's room and rearranged the poems written by Hongmei according to the date.

When there was only the last piece of paper left in his hand, he looked at an ink stain on the paper, and his eyes instantly became serious.

After thinking for a while, Li Canghai immediately went to find Zhang Wenyuan, explained some things to him, and then he returned to the room.

In the room, Li Canghai looked at the bamboo forest he drew last night and fell into deep thought.

Around Mo Shen's time, there was a knock on the door.

"Brother Li, it's me, Yu Chengen!" Yu Chengen's voice came from outside the door.

"The door is not closed, Brother Yu, please come in!" Li Canghai put away the papers he drew, and said loudly.

The door opened and Yu Chengen walked in.

"Brother Yu came to see me at this time, what is the important matter?" Li Canghai poured a glass of water, handed it to Yu Chengen, and asked.

Yu Chengen took the water glass, took a sip, and said, "Brother Li, it's getting late, and it's only an hour before sunset, have you found the murderer?"

Li Canghai shook his head, sighed and said, "I do have some doubters, but there is no direct evidence yet. Besides, there are still many things I haven't figured out yet."

Yu Cheng'en also nodded, and sighed: "These murder cases are really unimaginable, especially the murder of Hongmei, which is simply too weird! Since Brother Li knows magic, why doesn't he use magical powers to find the real culprit?"

Li Canghai smiled helplessly, and said, "Brother Yu was joking, how could I know any spells, those are just trivial skills. Besides, the murderer is a human, not a ghost. Even if I know spells, those spells can only catch Even ghosts can't catch people!"

Yu Chengen thought for a while, and felt that it was true. Humans and ghosts have different paths. There are two different forms. Those who can catch thieves may not be able to catch ghosts, and those who can catch ghosts may not be able to catch people. There is a reason.

Li Canghai glanced at him and said, "Brother Yu, you didn't come to me just to ask me if I found the murderer, did you?"

Yu Cheng'en patted his head, and said with a loud voice: "I almost forgot about the business, just now I heard that the members of the staff are going to send all the female relatives away."

"Why?" Li Canghai asked in surprise.

Yu Cheng'en said: "The listener said that he was worried about the safety of Lan Yue and Yan Rou, and planned to let them leave the Zhang family and live elsewhere temporarily. After the murderer caught them, he would pick them up. Moreover, the member said that he The local government office has been notified, and the government officials will escort them all the way."

"When did it happen? The case has not been solved, and everyone is suspected of murder. How can we let them go so easily?" Li Canghai's face was quite displeased.

"Just now. Now Lan Yue and Yan Rou are packing their things, and they will leave immediately when the yamen servant arrives." Yu Chengen said.

Li Canghai frowned suddenly, and he said in a deep voice, "Brother Yu, please take me to Yuanwai, I want to have a talk with him!"

Yu Chengen nodded, then pushed Li Canghai and walked towards Zhang Wenyuan's residence.

When they came to Zhang Wenyuan's room, they didn't find Zhang Wenyuan's trace, but saw some servants running towards the backyard holding firewood.

Li Canghai stopped a servant and asked, "Why are you holding these firewood in such a hurry?"

The servant had seen Li Canghai's spells before, so he hurriedly replied respectfully: "Returning to the immortal, the master wants to burn Ueda Takashi to death, so he asked us to prepare firewood."

"What? The members are going to burn Ueda Takashi to death?" Li Canghai was taken aback when he heard that, he hurriedly asked Yu Chengen to push him, and walked towards the backyard.

It was the same place where Hongmei and the others were burned yesterday, but the difference was that three corpses were burned yesterday, but one living person was burned today.

The two rushed over, but were stopped by the guard at the arch in the backyard.

They were far away from the woodpile, and they could only vaguely see a person tied to the woodpile, with his head lowered, tied to the woodpile motionless, as if he had passed out.

However, from the clothes he was wearing, it could be seen that the man was Ueda Takashi.

"Outsider! What are you doing?" Li Canghai shouted.

Zhang Wenyuan turned his head, his face was full of ruthlessness, he said to Li Canghai: "Immortal Chief, I will never spare him for killing my concubine! I will burn him to death and avenge Ah Zhu and Juzi! "

"Member, we agreed before, you give me two days, I will find out the real culprit, do you want to go back on your word?" Li Canghai shouted loudly.

Zhang Wenyuan smiled strangely. He raised his head, pointed to the western sky, and said, "Immortal Elder, you can see clearly, it's the time when the sun is setting!"

Li Canghai raised his head, only to realize that the sun had really started to set!

"Waiyuan, give me some more time! I will definitely find out the real culprit!" Li Canghai shouted anxiously.

Zhang Wenyuan's face suddenly became gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said: "No need! The murderer has been confirmed, it is Ueda Takashi! Now the sun has set, it is the sky that wants him to die! Come, light the fire!"

Several servants holding torches immediately walked over and lit the fire.

In an instant, the pile of firewood ignited a raging flame.

Soon, the flames rushed to Ueda Takashi's body, burning crazily.

Seeing this, the nursing homes seemed to be afraid that Li Canghai and Yu Chengen would make trouble, so they immediately drove them out of the backyard.
