This martial artist just wants to be an official

Chapter 33 Clues
Lu Yuanzhi looked at the room and took two bowls of tea on the table, slowly closed his eyes and meditated.

There was a black figure in his mind, and his face could not be seen clearly.

That figure against the sun in the sky, wandering in the street.

His purpose is very strong, so the path he walks is also very smooth.

His hands were in his sleeves, slightly bulging.

Because he was holding a black pyramid about a foot away.

The black pyramid is not long, only about half a foot, for the convenience of hiding.

The figure walked to the dilapidated courtyard and knocked on the door softly.

After a while, the door opened, and it was Xu Erjie with an honest face.

When Xu Erjie saw the face of this figure, a naive smile appeared on his face.

Because he knew the owner of this figure.

The two exchanged a few words at the door.

Xu Erjie invited the man into the house.

The man followed Xu Erjie into the house.

Xu Erjie poured two bowls of tea with a smile, and the two chatted while drinking.

And in the tea room, the figure approached Xu Erjie purposefully.

It happened in that instant.

Xu Erjie was in a trance.

That figure shot suddenly!
Dark light flashed.

The pyramid hidden in the sleeve of that vague figure pierced Xu Erjie's throat fiercely.

Xu Erjie was confused at first, and then he couldn't believe it. Holding his pierced throat, he struggled with his weak hands.

However, the strength in his body was slowly drained.

Slowly, he fell to the ground.

Seeing Xu Erjie fell to the ground, the figure remained motionless, watching the struggling Xu Erjie coldly until he was sure that Xu Erjie was completely dead.

He walked slowly to the pyramid he used for the murder, picked it up, and retreated slowly.

The figure quickly walked to the street and slowly disappeared.

……

Lu Yuanzhi suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes were fixed on the tough woman.

"Where were you at noon today? Why did you report to the official now?"

Hearing Lu Yuanzhi speak, everyone turned their eyes to the tough woman.

When the woman heard the words, she dared not hide anything, and said honestly:

"I took Ernier to the field at noon, and worked until it was almost dark. When I came back, I saw the head of the family lying on the ground."

"At first I thought he was suffering from Sha, and wanted to wake him up until I saw blood on the ground."

As the woman thought about it, tears dripped from her red eyes.

"Who has Xu Erjie had conflicts with recently?"

Before Lu Yuanzhi asked, Wu Ke beside him spoke with an old voice.

Lu Yuanzhi frowned slightly.

Since it was said that an acquaintance committed the crime, first ruled out that he had conflicts with others.

If someone in conflict seeks revenge, Xu Erjie will definitely be on guard.

It's not clear why he won't die, which makes his expression so complicated before he dies.

"He doesn't even dare to speak loudly with others on weekdays. He is useless and incompetent. Who can he conflict with?"

When the shrew heard Wu Keyong's questioning, the shrew's crying became even more desolate.

It was Xu Erjie's cowardly character that made her so strong. Otherwise, not to mention that the Xu family would come to ask for the land after Xu Erjie died, the land would have been taken away when he was alive.

Lu Yuanzhi continued to think.

He just got a piece of information from the woman's words, that is, the murderer knew that Xu Erjie was alone at home.

"Do you often go to the fields to do farming work on weekdays?"

Lu Yuanzhi looked at the woman and continued to ask.

"If I don't go, can I still count on the one who kills a thousand swords? He only does small business all day long."

When the sturdy woman said this, there was a bit of complaint in her tone, and then she looked like crying again:
"From now on, Ernier and I are the only ones left, how should we live!!"

"To shut up!"

Wu Keyong thought the woman was noisy, so he glared at her.

The woman trembled a bit, not daring to make a sound.

Lu Yuanzhi didn't care, but thought quietly, this woman often went to the fields to do farming.

Xu Erjie fiddled with business at home again, which was almost the norm in this family.

Those acquaintances who have a little knowledge of their family's situation will know, so this can't be a useful clue.

For a while, there was really no clue.

Lu Yuanzhi felt a little bored. He circled around Xu Erjie's body to see if he could find any useful clues.

After a glance, he found something strange.

"what is that?"

Lu Yuanzhi pointed to the mark under Xu Erjie's finger.

Looking at it suddenly, it seems that the fingernails are unconsciously rubbing against the ground under the struggle of death.

But if you look closely, there is a small trace of friction marks.

Wu Ke followed Lu Yuanzhi's eyes, his expression was serious.

However, after Lu Yuanzhi looked carefully, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

I saw that the trace made by the friction between the nail and the ground looked like a θ symbol

There is also a tiny spot in the middle of the first half.

Bring that dot...

It's like a man's thing.

What are you doing drawing a stick of this thing before you die?
"It should be an unconscious struggle."

Wu Keyong didn't think much about it after looking at it.

Lu Yuanzhi was also quite speechless. He wanted to give himself a big sinus right now, probably because the clues of the case were really confusing and he was thinking too much.

"Master Lu, the murderer in this case is hard to find."

Wu Ke sighed insignificantly.

Because there were too few clues at the scene, and the murderer was cautious, he didn't even leave the murder weapon behind.

"not necessarily."

A foolish smile appeared on Lu Yuanzhi's face, and he stretched slowly.

"What?" Wu Ke looked at Lu Yuanzhi with a confused expression, "Master Lu has a clue?"

The two yamen servants behind him also looked at Lu Yuanzhi with a fixed face.

Lu Yuanzhi ignored them.

Instead, he asked the woman two questions with great interest:

"Has Xu Erjie traveled far recently? Has he mentioned to you that he has made any new friends?"

The woman shook her head like a rattle,
"Xu Erjie is a native of Chongbei. We have grown up together since we were young. The farthest he has traveled in his life is from here to my natal village to pick up my relatives."

"As for new friends."

The woman thought for a while, then continued to shake her head: "His temperament is boring, no one thinks highly of him, and he dare not associate with strangers."

Hearing what the woman said, the smile on Lu Yuanzhi's face became wider.

Since it can be confirmed that an acquaintance committed the crime, and Xu Erjie has a stuffy temperament, it will be much easier to handle.

"Master Wu, immediately order people to search for everyone who has been in contact with Xu Erjie recently on weekdays. According to his temperament, there should not be many people who have been in contact with him, so it is easy to find."

"If someone disappears suddenly, even if it's not the murderer, it can get us more clues..."

"If they are all there, then search the house carefully and look for the murder weapon! The Chongbei military ban has been banned for so many years, and ordinary people will never have weapons in their homes."

Lu Yuanzhi's words made everyone's thoughts clear at once.

Everyone looked at Lu Yuanzhi with a strange look in their eyes at this moment.

Wu Keyong was even more astonished, he even forgot to touch the goatee.

Mr. Lu's few words made the thoughts in his heart suddenly smooth.

Why didn't I find that Mr. Lu had this kind of talent before? ?
