Chapter 179
After getting a sum of money, the two of them left the place.
Green searched his pocket and found a piece of candy.
"Can you help me find out who killed the man in my family?"
Cao Annuo suddenly asked while walking on the road.
"Sure!"
Green handed the candy to him.
"Eat it yourself, I'm not talking to you for this."
Cao Annuo pushed the candy back.
"I know you're not talking to me for this, but you have something else for me to do, so it doesn't make much difference."
Green swallowed the candy and said.
"It makes a big difference, a piece of candy doesn't cost a lot of money. Eating a piece of candy doesn't necessarily mean you'll lose your life."
Cao Annuo sighed.
He seemed to mean that this matter was very troublesome and dangerous, and if Green changed his mind now, it would still be in time.
"Even if I suddenly tell you that I regret it when things are halfway through, you won't blame me, right?"
Green asked.
"You have helped me a lot, and it's okay to regret it. This is not your business in the first place, and I am very grateful that you can help me."
Cao Annuo said.
"Don't worry, I won't leave so easily."
Green said.
"That's good."
Cao Annuo nodded.
Green went to Cao Annuo's home and sent the body to the autopsy clinic.
He had another body in there who was specifically responsible for autopsies, and he dissected the body.
"The body has been stiff for more than 12 hours after death. The wound is on the back, a total of three knives. He didn't die at first, and struggled for about five minutes, so the blood was everywhere in the room..."
Green fell into thought after getting some information.
He found some things that might be the murder weapon from the analysis of the wound.
"Do you know who has this thing?"
Green asked with a frown.
"I know that only Sanchuanjing has this thing. He once troubled me and pulled out a whip. The whip was made of purple dragon cartilage wrapped in gold powder and made by magic."
Cao Annuo's face was gloomy.
"So the gold powder and special bones I found in the corpse are the materials of the whip. But the whip should not be in the flesh and blood. And there is no trace of the whip on her body."
Green frowned and said.
"This is what you don't know. That thing is a magical creation. It can change its shape at any time according to the magic spell. It is a whip when it is used normally, and it is also very simple to turn it into a dagger."
Cao Annuo took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said.
"What are you going to do next?"
Green asked.
"I want to catch him and question him. If he is in public with a group of people protecting him, he won't answer anything I ask him. He will just be fearless and cause trouble for me."
Cao Annuo said.
"What if he is fearless and tells the truth instead?"
Green asked.
"That's possible, but although he is arrogant, he is not stupid enough to do that. Otherwise, I would have killed him a long time ago."
Cao Annuo sighed.
"There is one more thing I don't know if you know. Even if his family is as big as his and he is a great noble, he can protect us once or twice, but he can't protect us forever if things get out of hand.
He knows this in his heart, and he will never admit to me in front of a group of people that he killed someone from my family. Besides, even if the things are his, it doesn't mean he killed them.
It could be his relatives, after all, it's not impossible for his relatives to get the things.
It could also be that his followers often follow him, steal his things, use them, and then return them, and he may not find out.
If we really guess wrong and go to find him, it would be like making a fuss and we won't get any benefit. We might even get bitten back. He is definitely not a good person, so it's best to deal with it in secret."
Cao Annuo said to Green.
Green nodded.
"Are you willing to help me?"
Cao Annuo asked.
"It has come to this, am I going to turn against them?"
Green smiled.
The two of them put a sack on Sanchuanjing, beat him up, dragged him to the basement, blindfolded him, gagged him, tied him to a chair, and he was already unconscious.
Green poured a basin of cold water with ice cubes on Sanchuanjing's face and head. He shivered and woke up all of a sudden. He wanted to curse at him, but no words came out.
After being angry for a while, he seemed to realize the situation. He was quiet for a while and then started yelling again. This time, he probably meant that he was from the Sanchuan family and it was still not too late for him to go home.
Cao Annuo couldn't control his emotions and punched him in the abdomen. He widened his eyes and tears flowed out. He looked like he wanted to vomit, but he didn't because his mouth was blocked.
He felt humiliated, his whole face flushed, even slightly purple, it could be heat, or anger, or both, and probably a little bit of fear.
After all, there were obviously two people here, and he was only one, all his followers were gone, and he was beaten. If he was still as arrogant as he was outside, he would suffer.
He finally calmed down, as if he wanted to have a good discussion, and the expression on his face changed from anger with a little pride to pleading mixed with fear, but this expression did not last long.
He felt angry again and started to curse.
Green didn't want to hear him say this, so he poured a bottle of poison in his hand into his open mouth.
He coughed, and his face gradually turned pale after coughing.
"Who are you? What do you want to do? If you kill me, you will not be able to live well, because the Mikawa family will definitely avenge me. You know the Mikawa family, right?" Mikawa
trembled.
Green handed the voice-changing candy he had prepared in advance to Cao Annuo beside him. After swallowing the candy, Cao Annuo's voice changed into a completely different state.
It was a woman's voice, and it even sounded a bit like Sanchuanjing's latest beautiful girlfriend, who was also a student at the college, but older and about to graduate.
"Have you killed anyone?"
Cao Annuo asked.
"No, no, how could I dare? I'm a very timid person. And I hear people say that you can't kill people at home all day long, so how could I kill someone outside?"
Sanchuanjing answered in a low voice, trembling.
With such a voice and the bruises all over his body, he really looked like a victim, and it was completely impossible to tell how he usually showed off his power.
"Why are there rumors in school that you killed someone?"
Cao Annuo asked.
"That's all nonsense, it's not credible."
Sanchuanjing shook his head and looked a little excited.
"Do you feel your body going soft, your head dizzy, your limbs weak, your lips trembling, and you can't breathe? You have 20 minutes to tell us what we want. Otherwise you will die."
Green said to Sanchuanjing in the voice of someone who had swallowed a voice-changing candy.
"What? How could you do this to me? Please, don't. Please give me the antidote, and I will never bother you again."
Sanchuanjing said pitifully.
I will definitely bother you again, don't let me go out and find out who you are.
Sanchuanjing gritted his teeth in his heart and thought.
Cao Annuo sneered. Even with his eyes closed, he could guess what Sanchuanjing was thinking. He would not believe what Sanchuanjing said.
"If I have done anything to let you down, I apologize to you. Please let me go. I really know I was wrong. I will never make the same mistake again. Please don't come to me again."
Sanchuanjing burst into tears.
"Where were you that day?"
Cao Annuo said the possible time of death of the corpse.
"I was taking the exam at that time."
Sanchuanjing said tremblingly.
"You were not in the examination room at all at that time."
Cao Annuo said.
He reviewed the timeline of the exam and found that during the exam, when he had not seen Sanchuanjing yet, his family members had already died.
When he saw Sanchuanjing's mouth, Sanchuanjing was in the examination room, but when he did not see him, Sanchuanjing might not have been in the examination room.
You know, it is very common for Sanchuanjing to be late for exams and leave early. He relied on his family and did not take the school teachers seriously. The teachers thought he was not very talented and turned a blind eye to it.
So it is not the case that he must be in the exam room as long as the school is holding an exam.
Cao Annuo decided to deduce that the other party was a murderer.
"I am innocent. It was an exam at that time. How could I not be in the exam room?"
Sanchuanjing struggled.
"Who can prove it? Or do you have anything to prove it?"
Cao Annuo asked.
"The people around me can prove that they were with me at that time, and they all knew that I was indeed in the exam room. You can see the sign-in roster of the exam room for proof. I signed it."
Sanchuanjing said.
"Have you borrowed anything recently?"
Cao Annuo asked.
"How can I lend things to others? My things are all mine. Why would I lend them to others for no reason? Who knows what bad things they will do with my things."
Sanchuanjing shook his head.
"Then did you lose anything?"
Cao Annuo asked.
"I don't think I have lost anything. I don't know."
Sanchuanjing frowned.
Seeing that they couldn't get anything out of him, Cao Annuo and Green fell into silence.
After a while, Sanchuanjing had a seizure and closed his eyes with convulsions. Green searched his pockets and poured him the antidote that he had prepared long ago, and also gave him a forgetfulness potion.
The forgetfulness potion can make people forget what happened that day.
After drinking this, Sanchuanjing will not remember being beaten or questioned today. He will only think that he was unlucky, fell into the water while walking, and was beaten for no reason, but he doesn't know who beat him.
He can't even remember being beaten, he can only guess.
Afterwards, Cao Annuo and Green left Sanchuanjing on the side of the road.
Green and Cao Annuo went to the teacher to ask about the homework.
The teacher didn't suspect anything, so Green took a look and saw the exam sign-in timetable that was placed next to the homework and hadn't been put away yet. He seemed to be comparing it and saw Sanchuanjing's entry.
