The Unfathomable Bride
After this idea appeared, Luo Jun was surprised and carefully observed the blood stains.
After sensing Attributes Exceeding Hundred, Luo Jun's color vision range has exceeded that of normal people. When concentrating, he can even see spectrums invisible to ordinary people...
The blood of different people is all red in the eyes of ordinary people, but under Luo Jun's concentrated observation, slight differences can be seen. Soon he saw that there was a certain color difference between the dripping blood in the middle and the blood splattering around it.
Is it really for two people?!
But who does it belong to if it's not Great Shaman? Could it be the murderer's? No, the person who came in at that time described that the murderer had no trace of injury, so how could such a large pool of blood come out?
Suddenly, Luo Jun remembered what Sanji said during the day...Southern Borderlands Many of people's witchcraft Gu Poison use blood as the medium, whether it's someone else's or your own... So, could it be that the murderer deliberately used bloodletting and used some kind of witchcraft?
That's not right, Great Shaman was already poisoned at that time, his whole body was weak, and his vitality couldn't move. A Body Refinement Realm knife could kill him. How could the murderer use this kind of blood-spurting Ultimate Move?
So if it wasn't the murderer, who would it be? Besides Great Shaman and the murderer, who else was in this room at that time?
Luo Jun's eyes lit up...
And the bride A Li!
Is this her blood? Or at least the blood she prepared!
Recalling the previous inference, the murderer left no traces. He was probably a dummy similar to Genesis Art. Then could it be possible that the murderer was actually the bride A Li, summoned with the blood!
It's very possible...
But this way, there are still three problems that cannot be explained...
"Huh?"
What is that?
When I walked to the place where the silk handkerchief had fallen, I didn't find anything that could fade, let alone myself... So, could it be that it got on Great Shaman's face?
Okay, the next stop has been decided, go to the morgue!
Luo Jun observed for a moment, and when the guard at the door wasn't paying attention, he jumped out through the broken window.
"Ding, the event is Mandatory Event, it cannot be determined, and the number of times is reduced by one."
If this red mark is not there originally, then it was stained when searching for clues later... is it blood? No, the blood has dried long ago and cannot stick to the silk handkerchief. Moreover, the color is light red, which is different from blood.
There are five dice rolls left, can you get some other clues...
The guard frowned and stared at the leaves beside Luo Jun. They fell to the ground one by one, but one leaf paused in mid-air...
Although he didn't hit it directly, the air flow he brought up when he passed by still disturbed the trajectory of the fallen leaves.
First, since Great Shaman has been killed, why not escape at night, but make such a big noise, deliberately be discovered, and be buried with him?
Luo Jun pinched the silk handkerchief in his hand, and his brain was running rapidly. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he picked up the silk handkerchief and faced the moonlight.
Just at this time, some fallen leaves flew towards me. Afraid of being hit and arousing suspicion, Luo Jun adjusted his posture in the air, twisted his body, and managed to dodge past.
But where to go?
I must go to the bride's house, but in Luo Jun's plan, that should be the last stop. Before going there, I must at least have enough clues to be able to restore the basic events!
It seems that there are no valuable clues in this room, but there are still many doubts before the restoration of the incident. It seems that we need to investigate elsewhere...
What is this?
The silk handkerchief was given to him by Liu Si to wipe his sweat during the day. At that time, he tried to use it to look for clues in the morgue, but as soon as it fell on Great Shaman's face, Sanji snatched it away. After Luo Jun took it back, he put it in his arms and continued to search for clues in the room until he found it...
"Huh?" Noticing that the trajectory of a few fallen leaves was unnatural, the guard looked in the direction of Luo Jun with some strangeness.
Where to go next?
The guards were all experts, with piercing eyes. Although Luo Jun was in a state of invisibility, he did not dare to move rashly when he was being watched. He was afraid that the dust caused by his footsteps would arouse suspicion, so he could only squat on the spot, look at the guard and let the leaves fall.
Second, if the man in black is really the dummy summoned by the bride, then she should be the murderer. Why didn't the Southern Borderlands man's Curse attack on the dagger affect the bride?
Luo Jun picked up the silk handkerchief again, determined that the incident fell on a new important clue, and activated Dice of Heavenly Secrets.
In the middle of the silk handkerchief, there is a faint red mark, which is almost undetectable unless you look carefully...
Luo Jun frowned. The first question could be explained by not wanting to talk to her relatives and friends. Although the information showed that she lived alone, the crime of killing Great Shaman might affect her clan members. The second question could be said to be because the bride was strong and could resist Curse... But the third question, Luo Jun couldn't understand anyway.
Third, why didn't Dice of Heavenly Secrets point at her?
At this moment, Luo Jun's heart was already in his throat, because he also felt that a leaf fell on his head!
In the eyes of the guards, this is like a leaf stopping in mid-air...
Luo Jun Instinctively wanted to shake it off or knock it down with his hand, but that would easily make the trajectory of the leaves obviously abnormal, and the movement would be too loud. In desperation, he had a flash of inspiration,
He raised his hand to grab the fallen leaf above his head, then simulated the trajectory of the fallen leaf with his hand, and slowly placed the leaf on the ground...
At the same time, Dice of Heavenly Secrets is activated without being found!
"Ding, Event Difficulty 70 points, Final Points 66+5 points, Event Success!"
When the notification sound for clearing the customs was sounded, the guard blinked his eyes, rubbed his temples, and muttered, "Maybe I haven't had a good rest recently..." and then looked away.
"Huh..." Luo Jun breathed a sigh of relief, and while the guard was not paying attention, he quietly left and headed towards the small courtyard where the morgue was located.
There was no one guarding the morgue, but people on patrol would often pass by. Luo Jun tried his best to avoid it, and when he came to the door, he found that it was locked...
This did not trouble him. He took out a piece of wire from his arms, inserted it into the keyhole, and after a few simple pokes, the lock opened.
This is not because Luo Jun has ever been a thief. It is actually an additional effect brought by his flexibility and high Perception Attribute. This simple old-fashioned iron lock, with his ingenuity, is enough to teach him without a teacher.
Hang the lock on the nose of the door, carefully push the door in while the patrolman is not around, and close the door gently with your backhand. In the dark, no one probably noticed that the lock hanging on the door has been opened.
Great Shaman's body was still placed in the room. Luo Jun moved forward and took a closer look at his face. Finally, he found a touch of red on Great Shaman's mouth...
This touch of red was mixed with the surrounding solidified blood, making it difficult to detect. Luo Jun lightly dipped it with a silk handkerchief, and looked at it under the moonlight. It was the same color as the previous red mark!
Sure enough, I got it from here!
What is this?
Is the red paint that can be applied to the mouth... lipstick?
Does Great Shaman know how to apply lipstick? Luo Jun took a closer look and saw that the red color was not even. It was more like staining than being applied... Lipstick that can stick to Great Shaman's mouth...
Luo Jun's eyes widened.
Lipstick for the bride!
This Great Shaman once kissed the bride before he died!
So there will be Great Shaman's hair on the bed, because after he entered the house, he did not immediately collapse and be killed as the bride said, but instead pounced on the bride first, pressed her down on the bed and kissed her...
But this means that the Great Shaman at that time was not poisoned yet... According to Fifth Elder, this Luo Yue Poison is extremely potent. After being poisoned, you can't even stand still, so you still have the strength to have sex...
Thinking of this, Luo Jun felt that he seemed to have grasped something key... He recalled the clues he had just obtained and linked them up again.
After Great Shaman entered the bridal chamber, he wanted to be intimate with the bride, and the two of them even fell on the bed. However, for some unknown reason, Great Shaman got out of the bed, came to the center of the room, and was stabbed to death by a mysterious man... This mysterious man may be a dummy... Then the mysterious man tried to molest the bride. He was knocked out of the window and disappeared without a trace. The bride lied that Great Shaman collapsed to the ground when he entered the house and was killed by the mysterious man...Great Shaman, who died, also showed signs of poisoning...
So...Luo Jun's eyes lit up.
Great Shaman was poisoned in the house! And the way of poisoning was probably being fed poison when kissing the bride!
A small drop of poison can make a person paralyzed. If the dose is large, it is possible to knock down the strong Great Shaman in an instant! The bride took the antidote in advance, hid the poison in her mouth and kissed Great Shaman. When he collapsed, the bride moved him to the center of the room, and then used He used witchcraft to summon the man in black to assassinate him. Then, in order to prevent others from noticing that he was the one who poisoned Great Shaman, he lied and said that Great Shaman collapsed on the ground and was assassinated after entering the house. At the same time, he directed and acted the scene in which the man in black molested him, which gave an explanation for the messed up bed!
Luo Jun felt that he was very close to the truth... but Dice of Heavenly Secrets did not receive a reminder that the task was completed.
Yes, there are still doubts... According to my reasoning, the bride is the absolute murderer, but why, neither the dice nor Curse point to her? What went wrong?
Could it be that the murderer was not a dummy created by the bride, but a real living person?
That doesn't explain the blood of the second person in the room. If it wasn't for the casting medium, why would you get such a big pool of blood?
Could it be that the pool of blood was not used to summon the dummy, but was used as a medium to teleport the real murderer into the room? So the real murderer is still True Person?
That's not right. According to the instructions of the dice, the real murderer was among the hundreds of guests and servants.
On the wedding night, there was no one to guard the bridal chamber. It shouldn't be difficult for these people to sneak in and kill people. Why go to such trouble?
Create an alibi?
This is possible, but in an extraordinary world full of Martial Forest Expert, the alibi is not that convincing. And if the man in black is really a living person who kills people and molests brides, the risk is too great.
Could it be that... the bride is just a puppet, and the real murderer instructed her to do this?
But in this case, it is the bride who is directly operating. Why don't Curse and the dice point to her?
One conjecture after another was overturned. After much thought, Luo Jun could not give a reasonable explanation. In short, if the murderer was not the bride, then all the previous speculations would not make sense.
Theoretically, now he only needs to provide evidence of Great Shaman lipstick and two kinds of blood stains, which is enough to make Fifth Elder suspect the bride, prove that this matter was done by Southern Borderlands internally, and complete Lord Lu's commission... But the problem is that if you don't understand the truth of the matter, you will not be able to pass the task.
It seems that the only last resort is available.
Thinking of this, Luo Jun looked at the lying corpse of Great Shaman, took off his own Imposter Mask, put it on his face, and recorded his appearance. Then, Luo Jun left the morgue, locked it again, and used stealth to reach the small courtyard of the side room.
This is where the bride lives. The doors and windows of the side room are tightly closed, and there is a special person guarding the door. Even if Luo Jun can become invisible, he cannot pass through the wall. If he wants to get in, he has to push the door or climb the window, and he will definitely be discovered...
We have to think of a way to lure people away, but these well-trained Southern Borderlands Warrior cannot leave their posts without permission easily, so it's best to use a special method...
Luo Jun was hiding in the dark, thinking and flipping through Hundred Treasure Box, hoping to find a treasure that could help... Finally, his eyes lit up, and he took out a pendant. At the same time, he took out Cinerary Urn and summoned Tomb King.
Tomb King entered the invisible state as soon as he appeared. Luo Jun gave him the pendant, and then asked the invisible Tomb King to come to the courtyard door directly opposite the side room door. Then he touched the window next to the side room door, almost standing side by side with the guard.
Everything was ready. Luo Jun gave Tomb King a code. The old man nodded and suddenly released his invisibility, releasing Death Spiritual Qi.
The guard in the side room felt a chill for no reason, and then his eyes were instantly attracted by a Ghost Shadow that appeared at the entrance of the courtyard!
What?!
In the middle of the night, under the hazy moonlight, the appearance of Tomb King's mummy was not clear, but the sudden appearance of a strange outline attracted the attention of the guard... and after the figure appeared, it quickly disappeared outside the door.
Normally, the guards responsible for guarding are very responsible and will not leave their posts even if they encounter such an abnormal situation. However, although the outline of Ghost Shadow cannot be clearly seen, for some reason, it has a fatal attraction for this guard! He has an uncontrollable urge to catch up and see what happens.
There is only one door in this courtyard. I will catch up and take a look and come back immediately. Nothing will happen...
With this thought in his mind, the guard gritted his teeth and actually chased him out.
Taking this opportunity, Luo Jun lightly lifted the window and entered the bride's room.
"That guy Xuanyuan Wuji did a good thing." Luo Jun thought to himself. The pendant was useless as a token, but its effect of attracting attention was really impressive. It actually seduced the guard away...
Luo Jun turned his attention back to the room. The doors and windows were closed, and only a little hazy light came through the window paper. However, the whole room was still very dark, and it would be difficult for ordinary people to see. However, under Luo Jun's extraordinary perception, everything was still very clear.
The curtains were drawn in front of the bride's bed, but even breathing could be heard inside.
Luo Jun took out a small device from Hundred Treasure Box and placed it on the table in the middle of the room. This is a soundproof treasure, Common-level consumable, the effect is similar to Soundproof Barrier. I brought this to prevent the bride's voice from being heard.
After arranging the soundproof equipment, Luo Jun touched the mask on his face, transformed into Great Shaman, tiptoed to the bride's window, and quietly opened the curtain.
The bride was sleeping soundly, but if she opened her eyes and saw the face of Great Shaman, who was supposed to be dead, she would definitely be shocked... When she is extremely frightened and her psychological defenses are down, it will definitely be easier to ask for the truth.
After asking about the matter clearly, Luo Jun knocked her out again and let her think it was a nightmare.
With a plan in mind, Luo Jun stretched out his hand, intending to wake up the bride.
But suddenly, a hand raised and grabbed his wrist!
What's going on?
Luo Jun looked surprised and looked at the bride lying on the bed. She had opened her eyes and looked at him with a smile...
