Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 25 Doubtful Points
Li Canghai took the mask from him and looked at it seriously. One of the two masks belonged to the deceased, and the other looked a bit like a portrait of Di Renjie.

The two masks are so exquisitely made that they really seem to be peeled off from human faces.Li Canghai looked at it for a while, then handed the mask to Di Qing.

Looking at the two masks, Di Qing suddenly frowned.

"What's wrong?" Li Canghai asked in a low voice, noticing that she looked strange.

"Well, this mask is exquisitely crafted and lifelike. Only Gopher Gate can make this kind of mask." Di Qing turned over the mask as she spoke, and she exclaimed happily: "It really is something from Gopher Gate."

Li Canghai looked along her fingers, and there was actually a mouse drawn on the inside of the mask, and there was a line of words below: Made by Gopher, it must be a high-quality product.

Li Canghai was dumbfounded, thinking that in ancient times, so much attention was paid to brand promotion!

However, what he cared about was not this, but how could such a delicate thing fall into the hands of a servant?
"I put on this mask, and then appear in front of the mage with my own identity and this mask at different times, so that the mage will think that he is with me all the time." Li Eryi said tenaciously.

"Li Er, let me ask you, what's the matter with the bloody words?" Di Ying, furious, stepped forward and grabbed Li Er's collar, trembling with anger.

Li Er was frightened by Di Ying's angry expression, he said in a panic: "Master, I did write that bloody letter, but I really didn't make that corpse."

"Huh? What's going on here?" Li Canghai keenly noticed something strange.

Li Er's face was pale, and he seemed to be caught in a horrible memory.After a while, he swallowed his saliva and said in horror: "There are ghosts, there really are ghosts."

"Hmph, with me here, what are you afraid of? What's going on, tell me honestly!" Li Canghai sipped suddenly, which made Li Er sober up from the shock.

"I went back to the clan hall last night and hid behind the door to change my clothes, but after I finished changing, a corpse suddenly appeared in the empty room." Li Er's pupils shrank and his whole body kept shaking.

"What is a corpse that suddenly appeared? Didn't you get that corpse over there?" Liang Xiu asked with a frown.

"My lord, I killed someone and I couldn't hide it. How could I show the corpse? It's really...the corpse appeared out of nowhere. I was afraid at the time, but I was also afraid of being discovered, so I wrote it on the ground. Scarlet characters, thinking that it can confuse the public."

This made people feel more and more confusing. Since Li Er admitted that he was a murderer, why didn't he dare to admit to moving the body?
Unless, as he said, he didn't get out the corpse.

If it wasn't for him, would anyone know where the dead were kept?It is impossible for the deceased to crawl into the family hall by himself!

"You just said that you played a scene with someone else. Who are they? Where did this human skin mask come from?" Li Canghai stared at Li Er with burning eyes, which made Li Er even more panicked.

"This...these things belong to the Gopher Gate, and the person who responds to me is also the Gopher Gate." Li Er knelt on the ground, knowing that he had killed someone, and he was afraid that he would go to Abi Hell. Li Canghai was also terrified.

"Gopher Gate?" Li Canghai stomped a few steps back and forth, he suddenly thought of something, stopped on his feet, and said in a deep voice, "Is it the government offices from last night?"

Li Er was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Li Canghai to be able to guess it.He said in astonishment: "How do you know?"

Li Canghai nodded secretly, and gradually got some eyebrows in his heart.He said calmly: "As the god of thunder, Puhua Tianzun, how can you measure what you know?"

Li Er knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously a few times, his body trembling constantly: "It is true as Tianzun said, that group of officials are from the Shushu family, we originally agreed that they would sprinkle flour on the outside of the wall for me to lure the lady away. Let me make some noise, and they entered the clan hall to look for them in the name of catching thieves, but unexpectedly, a corpse suddenly appeared, and they entered the clan hall logically."

Li Canghai and Liang Xiu looked at each other, and they took a breath at the same time.

This gopher door can be said to work in a chain, and it is almost leak-free. What kind of organization is this?
"What does this person have to do with the Gopher Gate?" Li Canghai asked after pondering for a moment, pointing to the corpse.

"He is the internal response of the Gopher Gate in the Di Mansion. The purpose is to find clues to the treasure. After I killed him, they came to me and asked me to complete the task instead of him." Li Er replied honestly.

"Let me ask you, where are the imperial edicts you found?" Li Canghai looked at him and asked.

Li Er can't wait to confess everything he knows immediately, so as to alleviate his sins.

"After learning the news of the treasure, the little one became selfish and hid all three imperial edicts in the secret compartment under the little kang bed. Tianzun, the little one has already confessed everything. I begged Tianzun to spare my life." Li Er knelt down on the ground, crying angrily.

Li Canghai greeted Di Qing, and Di Qing immediately understood, and walked towards the side room with a few yamen servants.

After a while, Di Qing came over with a package.

Li Canghai took the package and opened it, and found that there were indeed three imperial edicts inside. He asked Di Ying to correspond with Tuoben, and after confirming that it was true, he turned to Liang Xiu and said, "Master Liang, the murderer has been punished, and the rest is up to you." Give it to the adults."

Liang Xiu asked the yamen servant to bring Li Er back to the yamen. He stroked his beard and praised: "Wonderful, really wonderful. I have never seen such a wonderful reasoning. Brother Canghai is really Digong alive!"

"My lord is too good. Thanks to your help, I was able to find it so easy to pretend." Li Canghai smiled lightly.

Di Ying looked at them in surprise, and said in amazement: "Master, aren't you the Thunder God Puhua Tianzun?"

"Second brother, you are still dreaming, what kind of god is he, he is clearly a charlatan!" Di Qing said with a giggle.

Di Ying suddenly came to a sudden, he patted his head and said: "I'm so confused, I really thought that the mage was possessed by Tianzun!"

"My lord, although the perpetrator of this case has been brought to justice, the case has not really been closed." Li Canghai cupped his hands and said.

Liang Xiu was a little puzzled, he stroked his chin and said, "How do you say that?"

"There are still many doubts in this case. For example, why the corpse appeared in the family hall for no reason, and where did the 'Xuanbing Gu' in the corpse come from? According to Li Er, last night Those government offices were pretended by the Shushumen, but what your lord found was a group of people from Zhengyang county magistrate."

The expression on Li Canghai's face did not relax a lot, but became more serious.
