Chapter 2257 Topographic Map
"Perhaps the murderer needed to hold the deceased firmly, so as not to make a louder noise after falling and disturb others. That's why the deceased was tied up so tightly." Zheng Qiu thought about it and only came up with this explanation.
"No, it won't happen. Since the murderer was able to take away the fourth girl Feng from the Feng family, not through the door but through the window, it shows his strength. No, it is certain that the murderer practices martial arts." Gu Xin raised a finger, paused, and stretched out another finger, "Secondly, the fourth girl Feng must know this person and was willing to go out with him, so she didn't struggle or make any noise when she left."
"What if the fourth girl Feng was knocked unconscious with drugs? Wouldn't it be easy for the murderer to take her away?" Gu En also fell into the reasoning of Gu Xin and Zheng Qiu.
After he arrived, he had already understood everything he should know about this case.
"There is such a possibility, but how to explain the cakes in the stomach of the fourth girl Feng, the poison she was poisoned with. If cakes are not eaten by themselves, can they be forced into it? They are not water." Gu Xin pondered.
"It could be that she was knocked unconscious, taken out, and when she woke up, she was found to be someone she knew!" Gu En said.
"Why spend so much effort? Miss Feng Si was not starving in the Feng family. She was not so hungry that she would eat anything given to her by anyone, right? If she was knocked unconscious and taken out, and after waking up, she was able to eat the cakes given by the murderer, it means that the two people were familiar with each other." Gu Xin retorted.
"The two victims were poisoned by the same poison, and judging from the undigested residue, they ate the same cakes. I think we can start with the cakes." Zheng Qiu had already finished cleaning up and said.
"The female members of the Feng family have lived here for more than one day. In this weather, the cakes can't be kept, so it's impossible that Ying'er made them and put them at home. Another point is that if you want to eat the cakes made by Ying'er last night, then the fourth lady Feng must have come to Qiyun Temple, or someone in Qiyun Temple took the cakes out, and it is possible to get this cake if you leave at night. The people who left Qiyun Temple last night have nothing to do with the Feng family. No one in the Feng family has ever left Qiyun at night... No, no..." Gu Xin felt something was wrong as she spoke.
If she wanted to leave Qiyun Temple last night, the monks in the temple would not be able to find her at all. It's like the murderer dragged the third lady Feng out and tortured her, and brought her back, and the monks didn't find it.
However, leaving at night, not riding a horse or a carriage near Qiyun Temple, just walking on one's own, walking halfway, riding a horse away where the gatekeeper of Qiyun Temple couldn't hear, then it would be midnight when she arrived at Feng's house.
Gu Xin came to the table nearby, where there was a pen and paper. She picked up the pen, dipped it in ink, and began to draw.
Zheng Qiu and Gu En came over to see what she was drawing.
Gu Xin drew a topographic map, which was very sloppy, but she had a good grasp of the distance ratio.
"It takes two hours to climb up the mountain at normal speed, and it takes a little faster to go down the mountain. It takes an hour to get back to the city from the bottom of the mountain, and the city gates are closed at midnight. The Feng family is here, and the murderer wants to take the fourth lady Feng out of the Feng Mansion and kill her, but... no, maybe she was killed inside the Feng Mansion, not outside the Feng Mansion. The murderer did all this just to deceive people." Gu Xin put down the pen and said to herself.
