Chapter 370 Murder
"It was Master Futong who purchased it. He was found dead in his room. He was hanged. He made a preliminary judgment that he committed suicide. Everyone said that he was the murderer. He committed suicide because he was afraid of being punished by the government. The slave also thought it was him. The little monk in the temple said that he had a conflict with Governor Fuhui for the position of governor last year, and he must have had a grudge in his heart to kill him. Hey, Miss, wait for your servant!" Qingtao hurriedly caught up with Shen Xin.

"Mr. Li, have you confirmed that Master Futong committed suicide?" When Shen Xin arrived, many people had surrounded Futong's body. hemp rope.

"It's not completely certain yet, and I just suspect that he committed suicide. There is indeed only one wound on his body, that is, a strangle mark on his neck, and there is no sign of a fight in the room." Li Wang truthfully repeated that Futong was tall. Gao, if it was murdered by others, he should have resisted very fiercely, but everything in the room is intact, and the possibility of suicide is relatively high.

"Master Lin, have you checked everyone in the temple?" Qin Ao asked, he and Xin'er only said they wanted to find Futong, and he died, there must be some connection.

"Back to His Royal Highness, the lower officials have checked one by one, and everyone has proof of their absence. At noon, most of the masters gathered in the dining hall for fasting, and those who were not in the dining hall were also questioned, and there were witnesses. And one of the little masters said He also went into Master Futong's room, and saw that he was always alone in the room."

"His Royal Highness, the little monk is responsible for delivering the meals to the uncles and masters. Today at noon, the monk delivered the food to Uncle Futong according to the usual time, but he scolded him. The monk thought that the uncle was in a bad mood, so It was a little later than usual to collect the bowls and chopsticks, and at that time I heard the voice of the master chanting sutras. Every time the master chanted sutras, he was very serious and no one would disturb him, so the little monk quietly put away the bowls and chopsticks and went out." A young monk stepped forward to speak .

"My lord, we found this under Master Futong's bed." At this moment, a yamen servant came over with a hook chain in his hand.

"Wu Zuo, compare it quickly." Lin Mo was overjoyed, this hook chain is likely to be the one that hurt Fu Hui, if the comparison result is correct, then the case will be considered closed .

"Returning to my lord, the villain has compared the wound, and it is undoubtedly the hook chain. From this point of view, Futong is really the murderer. He didn't expect that his murder would attract the government. He must have committed suicide out of fear. .” Not long after, Li Wang came back, and the comparison results were satisfactory.

"His Royal Highness, the murderer is certain, and Master Futong's hands are covered with calluses, which must have been caused by playing hooks and chains for many years." Lin Mo excitedly announced the result. The truth of the case came to light. Confession, the murderer who killed Mrs. Zhang has committed suicide and apologized.

"Wait a moment, little master, let me ask you, how is Master Futong's temper?" Shen Xin asked, why is Futong in a bad mood?

"Junior Brother Futong usually has a gentle temper and never gets angry easily. Today, maybe he feels uncomfortable because of the death of Junior Brother Governor." At this time, a monk came slowly, followed by a young man in Taoist robes.

"Who's talking?"

"The poor monk is the blessing of the Discipline Hall. Junior brother Futong has a gentle temperament. It is absolutely impossible for him to commit suicide in fear of crime for killing the governor's junior brother. Please ask His Royal Highness to find out the truth." Fude put one hand on his forehead and bowed.

"Yesterday, Pindao made an agreement with Master Futong to talk about Taoism and Buddhism tonight. The last time there was no winner in the discussion, it is absolutely impossible for him to commit suicide." Shen Xin noticed when the young man behind Fude spoke. He, could he be the person Zhang An said at the time that he didn't know if he was a monk or a Taoist priest?He has an immature face, in Shen Xin's opinion, his appearance is not handsome, but when he pretends to be a poor man, he looks very cute.

"Master Futong did not commit suicide. Master Lin can judge that he did not commit suicide by looking at Fangliang." Qin Ao nodded, his words made everyone look at Fangliang in unison, and Shen Xin's eyes lit up, that's why.Both she and Li Wang habitually focused on the corpse, but did not pay attention to the beams, so it seems that Futong definitely did not commit suicide.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise. The traces on the roof beams that have been rubbed by the ropes have a slope. If suicide should be directed downwards, then there is only one possibility, and that is that someone hangs the stunned Master Futong with a rope. To create the illusion of suicide. But Master Futong is tall and strong, and it may not be easy to hang him up." Lin Mo praised, as expected of His Royal Highness, the words hit the nail on the head.

"Order to block the news, and stop accepting pilgrims for the time being." Lin Mo ordered that three lives have been involved. If the people know about it, it will definitely cause panic, which is extremely detrimental to public security.

"Master Lin, we must investigate this case as soon as possible, so as not to cause commotion." Shen Xin frowned, it might be too late to block it now, it should be Zhang Xue who flashed by just now.Judging from the situation when Zhang Xue went to the Prince's Mansion that day, she should be a reporter in modern times, and she has monopolized the right to publish the story book, so she will definitely not let go of such an opportunity.

"Yes, we must find out the truth as soon as possible. Lin Mo, quickly investigate again!" Qin Ao didn't know why Shen Xin suddenly said that it was too late to block the news, but she knew that Shen Xin definitely had her reasons for saying so.

"Yes, I will do my best to bring the real culprit to justice." Lin Mo secretly sweated, all the people have alibi, this matter is a bit tricky.

"Xin'er, did you find anything?"

"No, there was no sign of poisoning or beating, but he couldn't have been dragged up awake, right?" Shen Xin shook her head, she had checked Futong's body repeatedly, but found nothing.

"Qin Ao, if you have the internal strength, can you lift him up?" Shen Xin asked, it must be amazing to get such a big man like Futong up there.

"It is estimated that his weight is much higher than mine, and the surface of the hemp rope is very rough, which will increase a lot of resistance, which is not easy. It took the strength of several people to put him down just now." Qin Ao shook his head, he It is definitely not possible now, even if the internal force is not sealed, he still has to use the internal force to barely be able to lift Futong up.

"So it's difficult for a normal person to hang Futong up. Could it be that the murderer is a strong man? But there are indeed chains found under Futong's bed. Could it be that someone deliberately framed him?" Shen Xin was a little confused, Brain work is really not suitable for her, it takes too much brain cells.
