Chapter 80 How Many Possibilities Are There?

"Do those four women know each other?" Xu Zun asked again.

"Two of them belong to the same flower building, so they naturally know each other," Ju Ran replied, "but the other two are from different flower buildings, and they have no contact with each other."

"Then..." Xu Zun asked again, "Are there any other Hualou girls who went to Huguo Temple to offer incense?"

"Yes, of course." Ju Ran replied without hesitation, "The Huguo Temple was full of incense in those days, and it was mainly for career and fame. It was very popular among businessmen and students."

"..." Xu Zun was speechless, wondering if those Hualou sisters were looking for career or fame?

"That is to say," Zhao Yu analyzed, "not all prostitutes are murder targets?"

"Yes, I have thought about this question too," Ju Ran said, "I also specifically asked Monk Liankong, what do these four women have in common that attracted his killing?
"That Liankong only said six words: It's hard for mortals to see through!"

Hearing these six words, Xu Zun and Zhao Yu looked at each other.

"Of course I didn't believe it, so I checked these four women carefully," Ju Ran continued, "They have a lot in common, for example, they are all slender and light young women, and they all fell into poverty because they were born in poverty. Into the dust and so on...

"But these... tsk tsk..."

"These are the common characteristics of women in Hualou," Xu Zun nodded, "compared with other women, they are nothing special."

"Yes!" Ju Ran nodded and admitted, "But...if we hadn't caught Lian Kong then, God knows how many more he would have killed?"

"Hey? When you say that, I think of a question," Zhao Yu asked, "If you really arrested the wrong person, why did the case of the female corpse in monk clothes stop after Lian Kong was arrested?"

"That's right!" Ju Ran looked bitter, "Because of this, in the past ten years, I have no doubts about this case!

"But if it's not the real murderer, how could the method and details of the crime be exactly the same? Difficult...Could it be..."

As he spoke, Ju Ran looked around as if frightened, as if there really was some evil spirit in this dilapidated temple.

"Ju Butou," Xu Zun persuaded, "I advise you, don't scare yourself!
"You and Taimin County Sheriff can rest assured, based on what you said, even if you really caught the wrong person back then, it is justifiable.

"Because, if there is another real culprit, there is no doubt that Lian Kong will take the blame voluntarily, unless you beat him to death."

"No, absolutely not!" Ju Ran assured, "I can swear to God, if you say that torture is a trick, we didn't even hit that Lian Kong with a whip or stick. He confessed as soon as he was caught."

"My lord," Zhao Yu asked Xu Zun, "Then do you think the wrong person was really arrested?"

"It's hard to say. In my opinion, there are two possibilities for this matter," Xu Zun said, stretching out a finger, "One is that the real culprit is someone else. For some reason, this person disappeared. Ten years later crime again.

"Back then, it was Lian Kong who took the blame for him, so he will come back in the way of paying homage to Lian Kong, and then start a new killing in Shangyuan City.

"The other way is that you didn't arrest the wrong person," Xu Zun said to Ju Ran, "The real culprit is the monk Liankong, but he had an accomplice or an apprentice back then, and he taught this person to kill the monk in monk clothes." method of killing.

"The one who committed the crime now is this accomplice or apprentice!
"And the third type..."

Unexpectedly, Xu Zun raised his third finger before the two of Zhao Yu came to take a closer look.

"Wait," Zhao Yu interrupted, "Didn't you just say that there are only two possibilities?"

"Oh, I thought of it on the spur of the moment, let's add another one!" Xu Zun said seriously, "It is also possible that Lian Kong took the opportunity of translating the Buddhist scriptures and wrote his killing experience in the Buddhist scriptures.

"Later, this killing experience was seen by someone, and this person went mad and became a new generation of monk-clothes killer!"

"This……"

This time it was Zhao Yu and Ju Ran's turn to look at each other with surprise in their eyes.

"As for the fourth one." However, Xu Zun stretched out his fourth finger and said in a mysterious and subtle way, "It sounds a bit mysterious, but it's not impossible."

"And...there is a fourth one?" Zhao Yu asked, "What is it?"

"That is..." Xu Zun said, "The real Lian Kong didn't die back then!"

"Ah!?" Hearing this, Ju Ran almost knelt on the ground.

"This..." Zhao Yu also looked around timidly, and said, "Master Xu, I think, let's get out of here quickly, I feel a little bit evil..."

The cold wind blows, and the atmosphere in the ruins becomes more and more strange.

Just at this time, the workers had already carried the body intact on the stretcher and covered it with a white cloth.

"Let's go, let's go!" Seeing this, Zhao Yu almost pulled Xu Zun and Ju Ran to the outside of the temple.

"Impossible!" However, Ju Ran muttered as if possessed by a demon, "It was definitely verified at that time! How could there be a fake?

"Hey? No, I was delayed because of something back then, and I didn't see his execution with my own eyes. Could it be that I was replaced?
"No," he pinched his chin again and denied, "If he is still alive, he must be an old man in his 60s, how can he still have the ability to commit crimes?

"Listen to me, that monk became sick from overwork because of translating Buddhist scriptures. He would tremble when holding a pen, not to mention a knife. Impossible, absolutely impossible..."

"Okay, okay," Zhao Yu pulled Ju Ran's arm and pulled it away, "Stop talking, if you talk about it, the three of us will get nervous..."

When the three of them followed the corpse transporter out of the monastery, Xu Zun found that Lord Li Yan was still waiting outside the door!
After delaying for so long, I actually forgot about Lord Inspector.

Seeing Xu Zun come out, Li Yan and Tai Min rushed forward and asked, "How is it, Jiying?"

"This is..."

Xu Zun saw that Tai Min's face was like wax paper, and he was looking at him with evasive eyes, obviously still deeply worried about the case of the monk's corpse.

"Is it really a murder case?" Li Yan's worry was obviously different from Tai Min's. "I thought about it just now, and I think what you said is very reasonable. If it is really a murder case, and it has something to do with the daughter of the Marquis Mansion, that's a big deal. There's going to be big trouble!"

"It's indeed a murder case!" Xu Zun nodded with a heavy expression.

"Ah?" Li Yan was dumbfounded.

"However, it is still uncertain whether it is related to Ms. Lu's disappearance?" Xu Zun euphemistically said an official statement, "Further investigation is needed."

"Alas!" Li Yan sighed heavily, "What's wrong with me in Tangzhou? Just after the iron coffin was settled, so many difficult cases came up again.

"Ji Ying, this time, I will leave everything to you! This female corpse is fine, but the Marquis' daughter must be found!
"Otherwise, none of us will be able to bear the blame if the Holy Majesty blames it!"

Gee...

Xu Zun smacked his lips secretly, feeling as if he had been tricked. This side has just been promoted to Tangzhou and sentenced, and the other side will be blamed and punished by the Holy Spirit?
Didn't he come to take the thunder?
"My lord," Xu Zunzhong said confidently, "Even if the two cases are not related, they must be investigated. No matter who the murdered girl is, she also needs someone to help her get justice..."
