Xuanhuan: My practice is infinitely upgraded

Chapter 38 I Have a Solution



"This is a very possible direction, and it just connects all the current clues together."

"Although it's all just conjecture, I agree with it very much."

Mi Wenjie's face was full of excitement, and he didn't have the heart to flatter Jiang Heng at this time, but followed this direction and began to deduce bit by bit.

"Generally speaking, killing is either an accident, or a vendetta, or because of profit, or because of silence."

"Accidents are ruled out first."

"With the status of five miners, compared with the mysterious person who killed the garrison, it is obviously impossible to reach the point of vendetta and interest dispute."

"Their death can only be silenced."

"So, it is very likely that they accidentally discovered some secret in the mine, which led to their killing."

Mi Wenjie began to think deeply, and couldn't help muttering to himself.

"What secrets can there be in the mine? Will it be related to the deaths of several garrisoners?"

"The miners discovered the secret, the goods were robbed, and the guards were killed. Gu Chengping may know about it..."

"Could it be that Gu Chengping had some secret transactions, such as embezzlement of mine property, accidentally left a clue in the mine, and was discovered by several miners..."

Jiang Heng shook his head.

"No, if that's the case, the other party will kill a few miners secretly and cover it up a bit, it won't cause too much trouble at all."

"And now, there is even a robbery and killing incident, and even killed the garrison."

"Such a large sum of money has attracted the attention of the sect. For the mastermind behind the scenes, won't it bring more trouble?"

"So, I think that the other party has a reason to kill the garrison, and even..."

"The secret in the mine is directly related to the garrison."

Mi Wenjie couldn't help being shocked.

Jiang Heng continued:
"Of course, all of this is based on the premise that the murder incident is a conspiracy. If it is just an ordinary martial arts master robbery incident, these conjectures will not be true."

Mi Wenjie shook his head solemnly.

"No! Your guess is very likely."

"After all, the death of five people in the mine is too strange, and the timing is too coincidental."

"If the two are not related, even if there are other reasons to kill the five people, they must wait until the incident of robbery and killing has passed."

"Next, we have to wait until tomorrow to go to the mine to take a look."

"Although there may not be any clues left, we can only try it out. After all, there is no conclusive evidence to confirm Brother Jiang's conjecture."

The two further put forward many conjectures and demonstrated them one by one.

There is no way, the current clues are not enough, we can only rely on logical deduction, or even guesswork out of thin air, and then conduct rational discussions.

After Mi Wenjie returned to his room, Jiang Heng continued to practice.

The next day.

Mi Wenjie went to investigate the mine in person, and as expected, he found nothing.

While Mi Wenjie was thinking hard, Jiang Heng came up with an idea again.

"Since all the clues are broken, it's better to grab the first clue and dig deeper."

"The first clue?"

Mi Wenjie looked at Jiang Heng in surprise, waiting for his next words.

"Wow!"

"I always think that there must be something abnormal about the corpse, otherwise there is no need to cremate so early."

"There is no such thing in the sect, but ordinary families have the custom of burying the dead within seven days. These five people were cremated in a hurry, and they must have wanted to cover up something."

"As for the abnormality of the corpse, the person most likely to know about it is Wu Zuo."

Mi Wenjie's face darkened, and he said fiercely:
"I'm going to arrest Wu Zuo, torture him severely, and ask him again. If he doesn't believe him, he won't say anything."

He was about to turn around and leave when Jiang Heng stopped him, shook his head, and said:

"If he knew, why do you think he didn't tell you before?"

Mi Wenjie sneered.

"What else could be the reason? The mastermind behind the scenes must have threatened him. I will leave after I investigate the case, but the other party is likely to be rooted in this place. If the secret is leaked, he will not escape death."

"But this time, it's up to him whether he dares to say it."

He squeezed his fist, as if he wanted to conquer the opponent by force.

"I think that since the other party has decided to hide it, this time it will definitely go all the way to the dark and continue to hide it. Otherwise, it will not only offend you, but also offend the mastermind behind the scenes, and neither side will please."

"You might as well try to trick him."

"It can make Wu Zuo fear the mastermind behind the scenes more than us. I'm afraid the mastermind behind the scenes has a lot of power here."

Mi Wenjie calmed down a bit, nodded and went out again.

When he rushed to the outside of the writer's house, he only heard the miserable cries coming from inside, and he knew something was wrong.

He hurried into the courtyard, only to see that the courtyard was full of weeping, and Wu Zuo's body was lying on the ground on his back, his face full of horror, apparently he had already died.

Two policemen are surveying the scene and asking the family members about the situation.

When Mi Wenjie walked into the courtyard, he immediately attracted the attention of some people.

A middle-aged woman immediately pointed at him and shouted:
"Yesterday he came to ask my husband-in-law, and my husband-in-law has been a little restless since then. My husband's death must have something to do with him!"

Under the panic and sorrow of the death of the pillar of the family, the awe she had towards the disciples of the sect had completely dissipated.

The two police officers looked tangled.

Under the coercion of the Holy Land, the imperial court and the Zongmen generally got along harmoniously and even cooperated with each other.

As the top sect in Qingzhou, Da Luozong naturally knew each other.

With just a word from the woman, it is impossible for the two of them to interrogate them as they would a prisoner.

Fortunately, Mi Wenjie also had information he wanted to consult, so he took the initiative to talk to the two police officers.

After some simple communication, I learned that it took less than an hour for Wu Zuo to die.

And before he died, there was no useful information left behind.

Mi Wenjie had no choice but to say goodbye and leave.

Although Wu Zuo didn't leave any information behind, his wife revealed some information unintentionally.

Mi Wenjie was thinking while he was on his way.

"She said that after the questioning yesterday, Wu Zuo has been restless, plus today's silence, it is obvious that Wu Zuo is indeed hiding something."

"In this way, it shows that Brother Jiang's conjecture is generally consistent, and there are indeed clues left on the corpse."

"Even if it is burned, it can still be used as a clue to discover..."

"Unfortunately, I still can't deduce the most critical point."

"What is that secret in the mine?"

When he returned to the courtyard and told Jiang Heng everything, Jiang Heng pondered for a moment, then smiled and said:

"In that case, then I have a solution!"

"Go and call Gu Chengping over."

Jiang Heng smiled lightly, his eyes full of confidence.

Mi Wenjie left in a daze.

Not long after, Gu Chengping was brought over.
