Chapter 3232 Taihe Academy
Su Yan didn't know why Captain Zhao was so sure.
Captain Zhao explained, "When the murder happened, everyone was together. The scene was really weird. There must be other people in the academy that we don't know about. I have ordered people to search the entire academy, and there are people on the periphery. We will definitely be able to catch the murderer."
Su Yan still hesitated, "Are you sure everyone is together?"
"Sure! I was there too, I saw it clearly!"
Su Yan asked: "Why are you gathered together?"
"Someone said they hadn't seen Wen Xufeng for a long time, so we went together to look for him. At that time, I was worried that Wen Xufeng was in danger, so I searched everywhere in front of and behind the hospital..."
"Wait," Su Yan interrupted, "You mean, Wen Xufeng wasn't murdered in his room?"
Captain Zhao said helplessly: "You may not believe it, but when we found him, he was in Yin Yuan's room, and the murderer killed him in front of us."
Su Yan heard this, and a vague thought flashed through his mind, "Have you seen the murderer?"
"No, it's hard to explain here. You should follow me to Yin Yuan's room and I'll explain it to you."
Another murder occurred in the academy, again in Yin Yuan's room. The area around the room had been surrounded by police.
Captain Zhao said that this was Shi Yangui's idea. According to County Magistrate Qin's idea, he should now entertain the county governor and Shi Yangui well and no longer pay attention to this case.
Fortunately, Shi Yangui was sensible, so Captain Zhao had enough manpower available.
Captain Zhao took Su Yan to Yin Yuan's room.
The layout of the room was no different from the last time Su Yan came, it was still the same square table.
"We walked to the front yard," Captain Zhao pointed to the window facing the main entrance and said, "It's where Di Jun found Yin Yuan's head last time."
When they arrived here, Xu Yang was the first to notice something unusual through the window.
Like Di Jun, he saw Wen Xufeng's head placed on the square table, but there were some differences, for example, Wen Xufeng looked terrified at the time, but he was still alive.
"Xu Yang said that Wen Xufeng seemed to be asking him for help, but soon there was no movement. We wanted to rescue him, but the door was locked again. In order to ensure everyone's safety, the private door had been blocked. We spent some effort to break through that door. When we rushed in, we saw only bloodstains all over the floor. But you see, this time we came too suddenly and the murderer didn't have time to clean it up. We followed the bloodstains to the back mountain and found Wen Xufeng's body. The whole process was the same as the discovery of Yin Yuan's body, except that the murderer handled it cleanly at that time, and we didn't find Yin Yuan's body until the next day."
Listening to Captain Zhao's words, Su Yan's heart beat faster and faster.
She was like a person who was in the fog but could see the light, and her thoughts had never been so clear.
Seeing that Su Yan hadn't spoken yet, but his expression was faintly excited, Captain Zhao asked, "Do you know where the murderer is hiding? We think she is probably a woman and can't run far."
"If he is an outsider, what's the point of searching the academy again since he has already been to the back mountain? He could just take a detour and leave from the back mountain." Su Yan said, "Brother Zhao, I think the murderer is someone inside the academy."
Captain Zhao smiled bitterly and said, "But I have checked. There are no new marks on the beams this time. Your previous explanation is not valid."
Su Yan thought for a moment and asked, "Since you have seen Wen Xufeng alive in the window, how was he killed and how did the murderer carry the body away? Didn't you see it?"
"The door was closed. I don't know if it was blown by the wind. As soon as the door was closed, we rushed to go in, only to find that the door was locked again, and it was locked at this end of the wing, so we couldn't open it immediately."
Hearing this, Su Yan walked to the lattice door of the wing room holding an oil lamp and bent down to take a closer look.
After a moment, Su Yan curled his lips, and his anxious heart seemed to relax a little.
Captain Zhao asked, "What do you think?"
"Nothing, but there are still too many doubts, and we need to investigate in detail," Su Yan said with a smile, "Don't you want to know why the murderer took Mr. Yin's head away, and why he didn't take Cheng Wenshan's head? Why was Mr. Yin's body not found until the next day?"
Captain Zhao said as a matter of course: "For this kind of thing, we can find out the answer once we catch the murderer and ask him."
Su Yan did not argue with Captain Zhao.
She walked to the bloodstain that extended to the rear window and observed it for a moment, then returned to the square table.
There are four squares of the same size next to the four corners of the square table, which are the traces left by the square table being placed on the ground.
"The square table was moved, Brother Zhao, was it you who moved it?"
Captain Zhao said, "We won't touch these things casually, you should know that."
Su Yan frowned, there were still some things he couldn't understand.
If it was true as she thought, the murderer needed to hide some more things. Where could these things be hidden?
Su Yan walked to the rear window and climbed over.
Captain Zhao chased after her in confusion, "Su girl, where are you going? Tell me and I'll go with you. The academy is not safe!"
Su Yan had already run far away.
Next to Yin Yuan’s room is Chu Feng’s room, and the other rooms are where the students live.
Su Yan paid attention to the traces on the ground and found that he was indeed going all the way to the back mountain.
However, she did not follow the direction of the bloodstains, but went to Chu Feng's room.
Captain Zhao couldn't understand it at all, so he could only follow her with his sword in hand, ready to draw his sword to defend against the enemy at any time.
The back window of Chu Feng's room was also not locked.
Su Yan held up the oil lamp and observed for a while, then called Captain Zhao over, "Brother Zhao, did you do this?"
Captain Zhao didn't know what Su Yan was referring to. He leaned over to take a look and found that the ashes on the window sill had traces of being smeared. "We only went in to check if there was anyone hiding in the wing room. We didn't open the window."
Su Yan then went back to the main entrance and entered Chu Feng's room.
At first glance, there didn't seem to be anything special in the room.
Captain Zhao has already brought people to check it out. If there is anything wrong, it can be found out immediately.
However, he did not stop Su Yan from looking for it. Su Yan had a different perspective from him and could always find new clues.
After Su Yan entered the room, she started rummaging through the drawers and cabinets. Captain Zhao didn't know what she was looking for, but he opened the cabinet door as well and pretended to look around, but he didn't know what to look at.
Su Yan had already closed the cabinet door. She looked at Captain Zhao with a smile on her face, "Brother Zhao, I want to see Di Jun and Xu Yang again."
