I kill the gods in the infinite script

Chapter 38 Puppet Town (21)
"I still don't understand." Huarong frowned: "What does the riverside have to do with Cuoyue? He didn't get very close yesterday, that is, he stood for a while while I was checking the body."

"You'll know when you arrive."

The river in the town is six or seven meters wide, with slopes facing upwards on both sides.

Zuo Si's body was found down the slope near the edge of the river.

Shu Li and Hua Rong squatted down on the other side where there were no footprints and scanned carefully.

Because the edge of the river is wet, there are always footprints left when you go back and forth.

But at the place where Zuo Si died, apart from the messy footprints of Shu Li and others yesterday morning, there was only one line of footprints belonging to Zuo Si.

"This doesn't seem to be used as evidence, right?" Hua Rong pressed on the line of footprints: "There are only such shallow traces now, it's possible for anyone to say it."

"I didn't think these were his footprints." Shu Li touched his chin and figured out the modus operandi of his identity.

Shu Li submitted the verification on the panel while making a perfunctory appearance.

On the day of the sacrifice, it is Youshi.

Shu Shan'er closed the hotel in advance on the grounds of her birthday, and told the townspeople working in the hotel to have a drink in the evening to celebrate.

Then, while others were packing and preparing, she sneaked out of the hotel.

The street was quite lively at that time, so no one noticed her and she could hide.

Shu Shan'er may have had the same idea as He Jian at the beginning, planning to control Zuo Si and fall into the river.

But she happened to see He Jian failed, so she had new ideas.So we headed back to the hotel, planning to talk later.

Late at night, the street became quiet, and Shu Shaner went out with a fan.

When Shu Shan'er entered Zuo Si's home, he found Zuo Si who had been stabbed in the heart but was still breathing, so he used the method of controlling a puppet to control him and walk to the river.

Then, Shu Shaner slit his throat and left the scene.

If Shu Shan'er does this, either others will doubt He Jian or the person who stabbed his heart with the knife, which has nothing to do with her.

Some of the verification results are wrong.

Shu Li sighed and told Huarong this.

"Where will the problem arise?"

"There are blood stains." Huarong pointed out directly: "If Shu Shan'er did it on the slope, then there must be splashes of blood on the ground."

"If she had done it down the slope, her footprints should have been left, and there should have been river mud on her shoes."

"She did it in the middle of the night. Is there any possibility that the blood stains were washed away?"

"Unlikely." Huarong tapped the ground: "I observed it yesterday. Even if it was washed away, Zuo Si should have it."

Shu Li thought for a while and suddenly reached into the river.

The temperature at that moment made her shiver.

Then she looked at Huarong who was paying attention to her and nodded.

"That's because the temperature of the river water is too low, which reduces the flow rate of blood in Zuo Si's body." Huarong murmured: "This is indeed possible."

"Furthermore, Shu Shan'er can control Zuo Si, who is soaking in the river, to walk back up the slope before taking action. Even if this leaves traces of water, it's normal for being by the river."

Shu Li submitted the verification again and got all the results.

However, her exploration level is stuck at 99%.

"It should be a tool used to manipulate the puppet Zuo Si." Hua Rong said: "You left your fan and blade with the puppet, which means you no longer have key evidence. The panel will not watch such an unfair thing happen. "Yes." As soon as she finished speaking, the next second, a familiar yet unfamiliar announcement sounded throughout the town.

[Congratulations to all players for completing all exploration tasks. In view of the inconsistency of clues under group evidence collection, players will be provided with three 10-minute exchanges and discussions. 】

[This copy has force majeure factors and will be forcibly closed after one hour. Players are requested to leave the copy in time. 】

The centralized discussion place was outside the hotel door. The few people ignored the simple tables and chairs and directly began to share the clues they had found.

Lin Mei and He Jian found the jar of unfinished osmanthus wine with the name of Huarong's shop on it.

Shu Li also shared the footprints they talked about and the suspicion that Zuo Si was being controlled, but she picked them out and didn't mention it.

"Then I voted for the wrong moon." Bai Shu stood in line before sharing the clue.

"I've already said it, at first glance, the blame was placed on me." Cuo Yue suppressed her anger.

Bai Shu took out a flute with the word "moon" engraved on it.

At this glance, we understood what Cuoyue meant by putting the blame on someone.

The word had obviously been carved not long ago, and the edges still had rough edges that had not been smoothed out.

"You just learned about Zuo Si's whereabouts of the puppets a few days ago, so it's not surprising that you made these things temporarily." Bai Shu retorted: "You must have asked about the whereabouts of the puppets and then silenced you."

"Another thing that can be proved is that you took the initiative to search the basement, and you found the door."

Shu Li hid her surprise and remained silent and invisible.

"Where's Shu Shan'er?" Although Cuoyue was angry, her thoughts were still clear: "She can also use these curses and forbidden arts, why can't she do it?"

Although Bai Shu had conflicts with Shu Li, he retorted: "If she was the one who controlled the person, then she should have found the paper or cloth recording the forbidden technique, but there is none."

"And you are from the Fengyue Clan, and the production and control of the puppets are also yours. You must be more suspicious."

"But there is another possibility, that is, they made it up. There are no clues like the ones they mentioned by the river."

Cuoyue's suspicious eyes drifted over, and Shuli looked at him calmly.

"You can let the panel verify whether the clues I told you are true or false, or you can spend your points to redeem any props that make people tell the truth. I have a clear conscience."

Shu Li's frank tone made Hua Rong doubt her own memory, let alone others.

In particular, in the public timeline, Cuoyue was indeed the last person to appear in Zuo Si's home.

Everyone decided who to vote for, and except for Shu Li, who voted for the wrong month, everyone voted for the wrong month.

After the short and long judgment time was over, the word "failure" was lightly slapped next to their first task.

[Unfortunately, the players failed to vote. 】

[The second mission story is about to start, please complete it within 40 minutes and leave the dungeon in advance, otherwise you will die~]

After the vote was declared unsuccessful, the name of the real killer has not yet been announced.

Except for Shu Li, Huarong and Cuoyue, the other three people looked at everyone with suspicious eyes.

Before he could speak, the Yunfan Hotel in front of him suddenly collapsed as if it had lost all support.
