Shu Li didn't know what other people were like, but now she was wondering whether the plot hint she got at the beginning was hers or everyone else's.

Because of this, Shu Li lowered her eyebrows temporarily, not wanting to be the first to speak.

Feng Cuo seemed to have expected this, and the expression on his face did not change at all, so he spoke first.

"I'm not sure if this is information that only I know. I'll tell you first and let everyone listen to it."

"When I entered the dungeon, it was mentioned that the deceased in this dungeon would be a certain prince. Did you get this plot?"

The first person to raise his hand was Li Zhi. He also added: "He is the prince who is expected to inherit the throne."

The remaining few people have nothing to add. Everyone has the same information about this section.

"Wait a minute, I have a question." Wen Shangshu asked: "We don't have a timeline yet, do we have to distribute it randomly?"

This is different from previous dungeons. A case has already occurred and is just waiting for players to enter the dungeon to investigate, nor is a timeline given for players to directly complete the plot of the case.

This way of randomly distributing information is too random, and no one can guarantee that it will be beneficial to them every time.

Feng Cuo shook his head: "I don't know. The information I just mentioned was also something I just obtained."

This statement is hard to believe, but if you don't believe it, there is no other way. After all, their current situation is indeed very different from what Feng Cuo said.

"So, what should we do now?" The person who spoke this time was General Liu. His gaze passed over Prince Lu who was still kneeling on the ground in trance, but he did not choose to ask any questions about him.

"In recent days, there have been rumors in the court that the emperor will announce the candidate for the crown prince tonight, and the secret minister has informed him."

"So, the person who killed the emperor and the dying prince tonight must be the person who knew the news." These are analyzed from the plot hints that everyone has learned, but they are basically in line with the current plot.

"Before we get our respective timelines, let's react accordingly based on the current plot and characters."

After Feng Cuo said this, he still used himself as an example to speak first: "My identity is the sixth prince. I was disabled a few years ago to protect the emperor. After that, although the emperor felt guilty and took care of me, everyone knew I can’t ascend the throne, the gap is huge.”

"So, I don't have any special reaction to his death tonight." Feng Cuo said based on his character: "After this, I may return to my residence and will not participate in the investigation of assassins."

Li Zhi spoke after him: "I am the third prince, and I am a playboy waiting to die, so I will not participate in the investigation."

Second Prince: "Recently, the Second Prince has started working for the old emperor, so he will take the lead in investigating this matter."

Ninth Prince: "I have shown my face a few times recently, but I have no power and no qualifications to participate."

After they finished speaking, several other people also roughly stated their identities.

Everyone else belongs to the ranks of courtiers, and it is not their decision to participate or not.

In the end, there was Shu Li who didn't speak.

Her identity is Princess Chaoyang, the most favored princess, not to mention that the old emperor just did such a thing for her.

"Let's think about it in a simplified way. Since the old emperor was killed by Prince Lu, isn't it the easiest way to ask him?"

It was not Shu Li who spoke, but Chen Zhuangyuan who was not far from her.

Wen Shangshu interrupted angrily: "Does he look like he will tell us? And didn't you hear what the Sixth Prince said just now? Neither the real murderer nor the accomplice can tell his key information directly. Do you still want him to tell you directly?"

Chen Zhuangyuan replied unhappily: "I'm asking who asked him to kill the emperor, not the person who killed the prince."

"Why, do you think the rules will tolerate you talking?" "Stop arguing!" General Liu interrupted them: "I received the message."

"Then there is two hours of free time, and it is also a limited time for everyone to find their own timeline and complete it."

"We will still gather here in two hours. After checking the timeline, we will find the real murderer."

General Liu's words are easy to understand and straightforward.

In other words, in these two hours, one of their current nine people will die.

Moreover, Shuli did not say her introduction until the end.

Because of time, none of them wanted to waste time.

Regarding Shu Li's identity information, they seemed to unanimously believe that Shu Li was the innocent detective.

Also handed out were maps, and everyone had a copy of this.

Shu Li returned to her palace according to the route. As expected, there were no NPCs here.

This is to give yourself a detailed process of searching your identity, right?

Shu Li thought while searching the main hall.

On the left is the study, in the middle is the main hall for entertaining guests, and on the right is the sleeping hall.

Shu Li walked into the dormitory first. The furnishings inside were simple and elegant, luxurious yet streamlined.

There was a letter under the pillow on the bed. It was written in response to Princess Zhaoyang's order to investigate the Ninth Prince's previous serious illness.

It read that the Ninth Prince originally contracted a serious illness in his fiefdom and died. However, he woke up again a few quarters of an hour later and killed a group of doctors and servants who misdiagnosed him.

Half a month ago, the Ninth Prince came to the Imperial City to congratulate the Emperor on his birthday. During this period of time, the Ninth Prince repeatedly worked for the emperor and received more and more preferential treatment, which attracted the attention of several other princes.

But the reason why Shuli checked him was because she saw many behaviors and habits in him similar to those of the former prince.

Perhaps others couldn't tell the difference, but the former prince was the brother of Princess Chaoyang and was very close to him.

Princess Chaoyang originally thought that the ninth prince was deliberately trying to imitate the former prince in an attempt to stand up and stay in the imperial city, and then participate in the matter of seizing the heir apparent.

However, the results of the investigation showed that the Ninth Prince had always been surrounded by those people, and there was no one who understood the former prince's behavior.

In addition to this letter, there is also a travel diary next to the pillow. There are many words marked on it, and it can be seen that the writer is serious.

In addition to these, there is also a packet of poison.

Brownish-red medicinal powder is wrapped in tawny ancient oil paper. The outer packaging has the words "Hedinghong" written on it, and a line of small words on the side: seal the throat at the entrance.

Shu Li turned around and went to the other two areas. There was nothing in the main hall, except for a broken chair that had not been repaired.

According to Princess Chaoyang's status, it should have been broken today, otherwise it would not have been replaced.

Then there is the study room.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the bamboo leaves peeking out of the window. Under the moonlight and candlelight, it added a bit of deep artistic conception.

However, what Shu Li saw at a glance was something else.
