"Ran Lin..." Yuan Xingtai was in disbelief, "You... what are you doing here?"
"Yuan Xingtai!" Ran Lin shouted angrily, "I never thought it was really you! As a school captain, you are actually the monk-robed killer!"
"You...what are you talking nonsense about?" Yuan Xingtai said, but he was obviously guilty, and his hand unconsciously clenched the dagger at his waist.
"I want..." Ran Lin breathed heavily, pulled out a short sword from under the counter, and shouted loudly, "I want to avenge Yushu! Take my life..."
Saying that, Ran Lin jumped up from the counter and rushed towards Yuan Xingtai.
Yuan Xingtai was shocked and quickly retreated to avoid it. Although he avoided the dagger, he was knocked down by Ran Lin on the spot!
Gululu...
The two of them rolled around on the floor of the drug store, and Ran Lin stabbed with her sword like crazy.
But although Yuan Xingtai was fat, he was extremely strong, so he immediately grabbed Ran Lin's wrist and prevented Ran Lin from stabbing her any more.
Immediately afterwards, Yuan Xingtai pulled out a dagger with his left hand and stabbed Ran Lin!
Ran Lin was also experienced in the battlefield. When she saw the knife coming, she quickly rolled outwards and rolled on the ground before she could avoid it.
But because his arm was held by Yuan Xingtai, he did not roll far away. Yuan Xingtai flipped his wrist and removed the dagger from Ran Lin's hand, and then flew out with his foot on the ground, kicking Ran Lin far away.
It hit the drug store counter with a bang!
boom……
The door of the drug store was suddenly kicked open, and Zhao Yu rushed in first, followed by several police officers.
"Don't move, don't move at all!" Zhao Yu pointed his saber at Yuan Xingtai, "Lieutenant Yuan, stop struggling fearlessly and just surrender without mercy!"
"What!?"
Yuan Xingtai got up from the ground, and when he saw the policemen surrounding him, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
However, after all, he is a lieutenant colonel and the highest officer in the Shangyuan City military camp.
He quickly regained his composure and asked Zhao Yu:
"What do you mean? I am a military cavalry captain. Do you want to rebel?"
"Hehehe..." At this time, Xu Zun's voice came from outside the door. He entered the medicine shop with a smile and said to Yuan Xingtai, "Captain Yuan, we are here to capture the killer in monk clothes!"
"Is it you?" Yuan Xingtai saw that Xu Zun's expression tightened at first, and then he held his head high and assumed a domineering look, "Monk-clothed killer? What does it have to do with me? I came to the drug store to buy medicine, is it against the law?"
"Captain Yuan, you know very well," Xu Zun said calmly, "The person we want to arrest is you, and you are the monk-yi killer!"
"Hahahaha..." Yuan Xingtai laughed, "You are really the most powerful person in the world, Xu Tixing, what you did is too outrageous, right?
"Why did I become a killer in monk clothes? Mr. Li only limited you to solving the case, but you can't take credit from Yuan Mou?"
"Yuan Xingtai! I...I will kill you! Ah..."
Ran Lin got up from the ground and wanted to rush towards Yuan Xingtai, but Zhao Yu and several policemen quickly stopped her.
"Captain Yuan," Xu Zun casually pulled up a chair and sat down firmly and said, "Since you don't admit it, let's discuss it today. Can you see if what I say makes sense?"
"Okay!" Yuan Xingtai put away the dagger and said, "Yuan would like to learn from Xu Tixing's lofty views."
"Yuan Xingtai," Xu Zun said loudly, "originally named Liuqi, was an orphan since he was a child, and was adopted by monks in a temple.
"Joined the army at the age of sixteen and guarded the border in Yuanping County, Hanzhou. Due to his meritorious service in exterminating the Hu bandits, he was not only promoted to deputy lieutenant, but also served under General Yunhui.
"Due to Yuan Ping's fortune, he changed his name to Yuan Xingtai, and even his surname was temporary.
"Since then, you have made many military exploits and risen through the ranks. Finally, you were promoted to a military cavalry captain, and returned to Shangyuan City to serve as the chief general of the garrison..."
"Master Xu," Yuan Xingtai interrupted Xu Zun and said, "Are you introducing Yuan's resume? What does this have to do with me being a killer in monk clothes?"
"Alas..." Xu Zun sighed, "Actually, I really don't want it to be you, but all the evidence points to you, and there's nothing I can do!"
"Evidence?" Yuan Xingtai asked, "Where is the evidence?"
"Don't worry, I'll tell you one by one," Xu Zun said seriously, "Let's first talk about the first victim, Xiaoying, the concubine of Yu Li Chen You, who was defiled by soldiers in the army and was forced to give birth to a child.
Go to the temple.
"Those soldiers were later secretly punished by the army, one of them was executed on the spot, and the other two were sent into exile.
"To ensure that the scandal spreads, the military strictly keeps this secret, and only senior generals will know about it.
"I asked Shen Xinglian, but it was just a rumor that Shen Xinglian is the deputy captain. Therefore..." Xu Zun glanced at Yuan Xingtai, "I also found Xiaoying's father, who is the groom in your military camp.
"After asking him in detail, I found out that the person who handled the case back then was none other than you, Captain Yuan!
"That is to say, you know the inside story of this matter best.
"The same goes for Ran Lin," Xu Zun added, "Although there are many rumors about his wife, the only ones who know the details are those in your army..."
"Ha..." Yuan Xingtai smiled, obviously thinking Xu Zun's reason was too far-fetched.
But as soon as he smiled, Xu Zun continued:
"Next, let's talk about the patrol in the city," Xu Zun said. "On the night when Ran Lin's wife was murdered, the murderer must have needed suitable transportation to move the victim somewhere to kill him and then transport him to the Luohan Temple.
.
"But at that time, due to the disappearance of the daughter of the Marquis, the patrol law had not yet been lifted. Except for those with passes, all vehicles were subject to inspection.
"In this way, we should have been able to identify several suspects, but in the end we found nothing.
"Such a result made me realize that the murderer was most likely a person who would not make the patrol soldiers suspicious at all.
"Or, he is a person who can delete himself from the book even if he is recorded by the soldiers!
"I'm afraid, besides Shen Xinglian, this person is only you, right? Captain Yuan?
"When I became suspicious of you, I found Ran Lin," Xu Zun pointed at the angry Ran Lin next to him, "and asked him to secretly investigate whether you were seen in the east, south, and central areas on the night of the incident.
?”
"Yes," Ran Lin gritted her teeth and said harshly, "I found out that you appeared from both Dong City and Nan City on the night of the incident, and you also drove a carriage!"
"..." Yuan Xingtai frowned, and besides being shocked in his heart, he seemed to be thinking secretly.
"You are the leader of the garrison," Xu Zun continued, "Which soldier dares to check you? Even if they see you, they will only think that you are inspecting the patrol work!
"One more thing, Ran Lin was out searching the Marquis's daughter that night. I'm afraid there aren't many people who can know that he won't come back all night, and who can avoid the patrol soldiers near Ran Lin's house, right?
"Yuan Xingtai," Xu Zhengzhong said, "I remember that night, we were drinking with the governor at Taixian Tower. I didn't expect that you left the meeting in the middle and went to kill someone!
"I recalled carefully later that when we were watching a performance at Taixian Tower, the performance on the stage was a rendition of Buddhist music. Did those sad and sad Buddhist music touch something in your mind, which made you desperate to do it?
Kill Ran Lin's wife to relieve some kind of depression in your heart?"
Hearing this, Yuan Xingtai's body trembled, his eyes widened, and there was obvious shock in his eyes...
