Chapter 833 Why aren’t you dead?
"Impossible! Gil always uses his right hand whether he is eating or writing! How could he be left-handed?!"

Duke Kilard said with excitement.

Gil is the name of the eldest prince.

Of course he would be excited. After all, during the hunting accident half a month ago, he was the only person present except the former queen and the eldest prince.

Once this is turned over, his own suspicion will undoubtedly increase.

"That's just a request from my mother to my eldest brother!"

Princess Mira retorted to him equally excitedly.

“As the future heir of Besbania, the eldest brother has been required by his mother since he was a child to use his right hand when eating and signing. Only in this way is it consistent with the traditional image of the royal family...

However, apart from formal occasions, my mother would never deliberately correct this habit of her eldest brother in private. "

"W-what?"

"Uncle, you must not have thought of this, right?"

Looking at Duke Kilard who was gradually becoming panicked, Princess Mila suddenly laughed, but her smile was a little sad.

"After all, you haven't cared about us since you were a child. You only know how to argue with your mother about government affairs all day long. In addition to family dinners, there are also formal occasions where you must appear...Uncle, you don't care about your eldest brother in private at all. Do you understand?
Without even knowing that he was actually left-handed, he put the pistol in the eldest brother's right hand..."

"Nonsense! What is Mirazu talking about?!"

Duke Kilard stood up abruptly, pointing his finger at Princess Mila as if angry or ashamed, and walked towards her.

"Your Majesty the Duke, the reasoning of the case is not over yet, please calm down."

Bai Hejing stepped forward and stood directly in front of him.

"you……!"

Surprisingly, Duke Kilard stood firm. The anger on his face quickly dissipated and gradually turned into a smile that seemed to control everything.

"That's right, the real murderer hasn't been found yet. Your name is Chris, right? Continue your reasoning, but don't let me down..."

With that said, Kilard really turned around and sat back down again.

Looking at him, Bai Hejing continued:
"From the photos at the scene and the condition of the eldest prince, we can completely conclude that if the eldest prince really wanted to commit suicide out of fear, then based on his habits during his lifetime, the eldest prince would only hold the gun with his left hand. , not with the right hand.

After all, no matter how well a person is trained, it is impossible for him to violate his natural instincts and habits in such a situation where he has no master.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible that the eldest prince committed suicide with a gun. He was murdered.

The murderer was at the scene at the time. When the prince was defenseless, he held the pistol in the prince's right hand and pretended to commit suicide. "

"Except for my mother and eldest brother, I seem to remember that the only person present at the scene was my uncle, right?"

At this time, Adams asked with a smile, and although Princess Mira did not speak, her eyes were fixed on Kirad.

"What? Are you trying to say that I killed my sister and Jill?" Kirad's tone was quite calm at the moment, without the previous excitement at all.

"I don't have this idea, but uncle, the current situation seems to be like this..." Adams smiled, turned to look at Bai Hejing, and said: "Miss Chris, please continue."

"Then, the cause of Her Majesty's death."

Bai Hejing said, turned around and took two shotguns of the same model from Fujiko Mine's hands. She first picked up the shotgun with the name tag of Duke Kilard on it and said:

"Your Majesty, this shotgun is the one you used when hunting, is that right?"

"So what?" After a glance, Duke Kilard replied calmly.

The name tag on the shotgun was saved and affixed as evidence after the hunting tragedy. At that time, Count Keith asked him to personally identify the two shotguns.

"Then, this shotgun is the one used by the eldest prince to accidentally kill Her Majesty the Queen in the data, is that right?"

Then, Bai Hejing raised another shotgun with the eldest prince's name tag in his hand.

"That's right." Duke Kilard nodded again.

"Your Majesty, are you sure?"

"I am very sure."

Since the shotgun used by Kilard at the time was exactly the same model as the one used by the eldest prince, and he was the only person present and alive at the scene at the time, it was left to him to distinguish the two shotguns. Naturally, he now does not Probably denied.

"I understand."

After receiving Duke Kilard's affirmative answer again, Bai Hejing nodded slightly and suddenly said:
"Speaking of which, I have learned from Her Royal Highness the Princess before that the Duke rarely participates in the eldest prince's hunting activities. He seems to think it is a waste of time?

The hunting trip half a month ago seemed to be the first time you accompanied me, right? "

With that said, Bai Hejing slowly raised the shotgun with Kilard's name tag on it.

"Occasionally, you need to relax. Is there any wonder in that?" Kirad snorted without noticing Bai Hejing's movements.

"That's right. Then what do you think of hunting? Do you think this is a cruel act? Do you deliberately replace the bullets of the shotgun with those of small animals because you don't want to hurt those small animals? This behavior of empty ammunition?”

"Huh? Is there something wrong with your mind? Since I'm going hunting, how could I be so stupid as to..."

"Bah!"

The next moment, gunfire suddenly rang out.

The pavilion in the middle of the lake was silent for an instant. Duke Kilard jumped up suddenly as if on conditioned reflex, and looked palely at Bai Hejing, who was holding a shotgun in front of him.

"B-bastard! Crazy woman! Do you know what you just did?! You actually dared to shoot me?!"

The royal guards behind him also raised their guns and aimed at Bai Hejing.

"You! Put the gun..."

Princess Mira was about to scold them, but Bai Hejing raised her hand to stop her.

"Yes, I shot the Duke, and I used the same shotgun you used for hunting before. This shotgun has been sealed in the royal family's gun library since the hunting accident, and no one has touched it. Pass."

As he spoke, Bai Hejing took the shotgun with the muzzle still smoking, pulled the bolt, and ejected a bullet casing.

She looked at the frightened Duke Kilard and said slowly:
"It's just that, Your Excellency, I'm very curious. I obviously shot you, but why didn't you do anything?"

Yes, Bai Hejing had clearly aimed the gun at Duke Kilard just now. The shell casings on the ground were enough to prove that the shotgun was definitely loaded, but why was nothing wrong with him?
"The reason is simple, because this shotgun is not yours at all. It is actually the shotgun used by His Highness the Prince at that time."
