"Since the door and other windows are closed, why is this window open" Zhao Yunze wondered, "Is this opened by the murderer, or opened by Pigallo himself" Wen Yanbo said: "The old man speculated that the murderer entered the room through this window."
Pigallo also tried to escape through this window, but did not do so, and was killed by the murderer with an arrow from behind.After that, the killer escaped through this window again. ”Du Ruhui shook his head at this time and said: "This is unreasonable, if the murderer directly entered the room to kill Pigalo, then why didn't he use other murder weapons, such as swords, but he wanted to use arrows to commit close murder, swords are much better than arrows." ”"This" Wen Yanbo couldn't explain either.After thinking for a while, he said again: "The old man has no clue about this case now, and the inference just now is also the old man's helpless speculation. ”"How did you conclude that the wound on Pigaro's body was an arrow wound, and how did you conclude that the murderer was a hand from behind Pigaro," Zhao Yunze asked at this time.Wen Yanbo said: "The wound on Pigallo's chest is a penetrating wound, and there are wounds on the chest and back.The wound muscle in the back is inverted, and the wound in the chest is turned outward.The shape of the wound is also clearly characteristic of arrow wounds.From this, it is inferred that Pigallo was killed by an arrow in the back. ”After listening to Wen Yanbo's statement, Zhao Yunze looked up at the window.He looked through the cloister, looked at the pond for a moment, and then at the fence on the east side of the pond and the row of bamboos beneath it."
There are only twenty paces from the wall, and the murderer can fire arrows at Pigallo from there."
Zhao Yunze said.As soon as his words came out, Wen Yanbo immediately questioned: "However, it is cold at night, and Pigallo must have closed the doors and windows when he sleeps."
If the murderer had fired arrows from the other side of the pond, and no matter how he aimed at the window paper of Pigallo, it was not broken.Besides, Pigallo's wound also clearly showed that he was hit by an arrow in the back. ”Zhao Yunze said: "If I am the murderer, I will first try to lure Pigaro to open this window by himself."
The moment he opened the window, I shot him with an arrow.As for the wound, the question is also very simple.All I had to do was tie the tail of the arrow to a rope, and after I had hit Pigallo, I pulled the rope hard enough to pull the arrow back.The muscles of Pigallo's wound would turn in the opposite direction, creating the illusion that Pigallo had been hit by an arrow in the back.In this way, those who were involved in the case would have been misled by Pigaro's wounds and would have focused elsewhere rather than on the other side of the pond. ”Listening to Zhao Yunze's words, everyone fell into deep thought.After a while, Du Ruhui nodded and said, "It's very simple to lure Pigallo to open this window by himself.As long as a stone is thrown and it causes a noise outside the window, or if he sends a companion to make a noise outside the window, Pigallo will naturally open the window to check when he hears the movement. ”"But the arrows of the arrows are barbed.If, as Peng Yu said, the murderer shot Pigallo through the chest from the front, I'm afraid it would not be easy to pull out the arrow without breaking the shaft," Wen Yanbo questioned.Du Ruhui shook his head and said, "Brother Wen, a certain person is in charge of the military department, and he is more familiar with arrows.Not all arrows have barbs, such as armor-piercing arrows, which do not have barbs.Moreover, the piercing power of the armor-piercing arrow is even stronger, and at such a short distance, it can completely shoot through Pigallo's body with an arrow.Therefore, a certain also supports Peng Yu's inference. ”Chu Suiliang interjected at this time: "Your Excellency, if it is really as you suspect, this case was made up and acted by the Turks themselves, something must be reminded of you.The day after the Turks arrived at the Sifang Pavilion, they handed over the weapons they had brought with them and asked us to keep them on our behalf.It is said that it is to express their sincerity to Datang. ”As soon as Chu Suiliang's words came out, Wen Yanbo, Du Ruhui and Zhao Yunze were all surprised."
Why didn't you say this to the official," Wen Yanbo asked Chu Suiliang angrily.Chu Suiliang said: "Lord Wen did not say before that this case was done by the Turks themselves.It was only after listening to what Lord Du and Lord Zhao said that he thought of this matter. ”Wen Yanbo was speechless.Du Ruhui and Zhao Yunze glanced at each other and said, "In this way, this case is more likely to be done by the Turks themselves."
They took the initiative to hand over their weapons in order to clear themselves after the crime. ”Zhao Yunze also said: "I think the same way." ”Wen Yanbo sighed and said, "Anyway, the old man doesn't have a clue about this case, so it's better to use Peng Yu's inference first."
Let's go to the other side of the pond and take a look. ”So, the four of them soon came to the other side of the pond.Zhao Yunze first carefully observed the wall to see if there were any traces of being climbed over, but he did not find anything.So, he looked at the bamboos that were directly opposite the house where the crime occurred.These bamboos are not large, only the thickness of the thumb, and they are still tender bamboos."
Hey, this bamboo has been touched."
Suddenly, Zhao Yunze stared at the moment of bamboo and said.Du Ruhui, Wen Yanbo, and Chu Suiliang hurriedly approached the bamboo.Zhao Yunze pointed to a part of the bamboo and said, "Three adults, please look, there are strangulation marks on this bamboo." ”Du Ruhui and the other three hurriedly carefully observed the part that Zhao Yunze was referring to."
That's right, like being strangled."
Wen Yanbo nodded.Zhao Yunze thought for a moment, looked up at the house where the crime occurred, and hurriedly went to check another bamboo."
Sure enough, as I expected," Zhao Yunze spoke again."
What did Peng Yu find?"
Du Ruhui and the others came to this bamboo again.Zhao Yunze pointed to the bamboo with his hand and said, "You see, there are also strangulation marks here." ”"What does this mean?"
asked Chu Suiliang.Zhao Yunze explained: "This shows that the murderer did not shoot arrows with a bow and arrow, but tied a tough string to two bamboos, and used the elasticity of the bamboo to make a large slingshot."
The arrow that killed Pigaro was shot from here" Zhao Yunze's words made Wen Yanbo, Du Ruhui, and Chu Suiliang's eyes all light up."
That's right, if Peng Yu hadn't boldly speculated that Pigallo had been shot from in front of him, we would never have noticed this.Peng Yu is really careful," Wen Yanbo praised.Zhao Yunze smiled and said modestly: "I just used reverse thinking and considered the case from the murderer's point of view."
The case was a murder, not an accident.Then, the murderer must have done sufficient planning in advance.What we see, is what the murderer wants us to see.Therefore, I deduce from the opposite side of what we see.Sure enough, something was discovered. ”Du Ruhui also said: "The Turks are really cunning, they must have observed the surrounding terrain here, and planned a murder according to local conditions.Then he deliberately handed over his weapons and cleared himself.But he secretly hid arrows, and then made a slingshot out of bamboo, completing the murder plan. ”"But how do we find the murderer?"
asked Chu Suiliang.Everyone looked at Zhao Yunze together
