Chapter 110 The Truth (Part )
Chapter 110 The Truth (Part )
"There is a blue sky above my head and a belief in my heart. It's not because I'm young and ignorant, but because I'm not afraid of challenges. I understand everything, it's my nature that can't be changed..." Ye Shisan came to the venue of yesterday's duel while humming.
Today, not only were there the people who came to watch the game yesterday, but there were also a large number of guards standing outside, more than a thousand of them, each of them was a master who had reached the innate level. They were standing on the large open space on both sides of the aisle. Only a straight road was left in front of the Black Emperor, a situation that was like "luring someone into a trap".
This was undoubtedly a test of Ye Shisan's courage, but Ye Shisan was not affected at all. What a joke, if the Black Emperor wanted to kill him, whether he fell into the trap or not seemed to have no effect on the outcome. He went straight to the Black Emperor, clasped his fists and said, "Ye Shisan from Shennong State, I meet His Majesty the Black Emperor from Sanmiao State."
The Black Emperor still had a gloomy expression on his face, and he said in a cold voice, "I guess Mr. Ye already knows about what happened at Shuimutang Pharmacy last night, right?"
Ye Shisan nodded and said, "Yes."
The Black Emperor asked with a sneer on his face: "Does Mr. Ye have any explanation?"
"Explain?" Ye Shisan was slightly stunned, then he understood and asked, "The Black Emperor won't doubt this matter. What does it have to do with me?"
Black Emperor knew that it was not Ye Shisan who did it, and there was no evidence pointing to Ye Shisan. He simply stopped talking about it and changed the subject: "Since this matter has nothing to do with Master Ye, and Master Ye knows that Susano is missing, he should not come here to continue the duel from yesterday, right?"
Ye Shisan gave Hei Di a sunny smile and replied, "Of course not. I came here this time because of the Ri Dou Jin bloody case. Now that I have found out the facts, I came here to explain it to Hei Di."
"Oh?" Black Emperor was slightly surprised and asked casually, "I gave you ten days, and now it's only been two days and you've already found out everything? Haha, it seems that the number one expert in solving cases in Shennong Country is indeed worthy of his reputation. So now that so many people are here, tell me what you found out. Who is the murderer?"
Ye Shisan nodded, turned around and said to everyone: "There is only one truth, and I will now identify the murderer step by step. My first clue is that there is an 'eight' character under Xumi's body. At first I thought it was the beginning of the character 'father' or 'dad', so I decided on Susano as the first suspect. Although Susano looks righteous, he is actually a vicious person. He knew that I must kill him and I also have the corresponding strength. It is also very likely that he fabricated this bloody case to frame me in order to eliminate future troubles."
Ming Longzhu, who was sitting near the Black Emperor and had red hair, red face and red beard, laughed coldly and said, "Suzou has lived in Youdu for more than a hundred years. Although he became greedy for the sword two days ago and killed the swordsmith Ou Feng, it can be said that he made a mistake because of greed. But you said that he was so cruel that he killed his own son to frame you. Master Ye, are you telling everyone that a hundred years of contact with the people of Youdu is not as clear as the few times you met Susou? In addition, at that time, you and Susou had not started the duel. On the surface, Susou's cultivation was higher than yours. How did you know that you had the strength to kill him?"
"Of course not. I already knew he had a vicious heart before I came to Youdu." He recounted Xiaobai's story and added, "On the eve of the bloody incident, he came to assassinate me, but was defeated by my sword."
After hearing Xiao Bai's story, the people present had different reactions. Some cursed Susano for being worthless and worse than pigs and dogs. Xue Jia was the representative of such people. There was also a small number of people who remained silent, thinking in their hearts that Ye Shisan was really unwise to cause trouble for himself for a goblin. Zhu Yin was one of them.
After hearing this, Hei Di asked a rather profound question: "Do you have any evidence?"
"No!" Ye Shisan answered readily, "It's been more than a hundred years since the incident, so there's naturally no way there would be any evidence left."
The Black Emperor continued, "Since you have no evidence, that means you believe Xiaobai's words and rely entirely on your intuition. Mr. Ye, you don't want to use your intuition to point out that Susano is the murderer, right?"
Ye Shisan shook his head and said, "It was indeed based on intuition, because Xiaobai didn't seem to be lying when he talked about this matter. But I don't need to prove anything, because I never said that Susano was the murderer. I just said that he was my first suspect. And before the first duel, I tried to test him, and his reaction didn't seem like a murderer."
Black Emperor nodded and said, "Who is the murderer?"
Ye Shisan continued, "When I was in Shennong State, I was fortunate enough to be appreciated by Emperor Yan, who gave me the Shennong Herbal Classic. Based on the symptoms of the deceased's poisoning, although I cannot confirm the specific poison, I can assert that the deceased must have been poisoned by an extremely strong snake venom." After a pause, he continued, "Although the deceased's wounds look like they were caused by a sharp weapon, a careful examination will reveal that the wounds were not caused by a knife or other sharp weapon. Although the murder weapon is also very sharp, it should have been caused by a sharp object like a needle."
The Black Emperor thought to himself, Ye Shisan was able to analyze all these with just such a small clue, he is indeed a talent. But it is a pity that such a talent cannot be used by me, alas... He knew that Ye Shisan had more to say, so he did not interrupt.
Ye Shisan continued, "Therefore, I guess the murder weapon should be teeth. Combined with the snake venom, it means it was a snake's tooth. And combined with the above, the only one who can have this ability is the First Snake Clan. To be able to kill more than a hundred people silently without alerting the passers-by outside the door, he must be a master of the First Snake Clan. So the 'eight' left by Xumi is not the beginning of a word, but is originally an 'eight'. Therefore, the murderer is Qi Lu, the owner of the Shuimutang Pharmacy in the west of the city, nicknamed Yaqi from the First Snake Clan!"
"Why did he kill more than a hundred people from Ridoujin? Killing people always requires a motive, right?" Hei Di asked again. Although he felt that Ye Shisan was very confident, he still hoped to defeat Ye Shisan, so that he could legitimately get rid of this potential enemy with great potential.
Ye Shisan answered without hesitation: "Jealous! Yaqi often visits Wanxianglou and is very attentive to Yueji, but Yueji has always been indifferent to him. A few days ago, Yueji and Susano became very close. Many people saw her often going to Ridoujin and winning a lot of money from Susano every time. After the first duel, I think everyone has a general understanding of Susano's gambling skills. If Susano hadn't let her win, would she have won the money?"
Everyone nodded after hearing this, but most of them were not talking about the case. Instead, they were secretly making up their minds to never go to the casino again. Never!
