As for the shoe he was thinking about just now, let's ignore it for now, and the two maidservants in front of him obviously lied in front of them.

Especially the maid who got under the bed, why did she leave a shoe on the scene?This is probably Song Wuya's original guess about this shoe.Maybe she saw the murderer committing the crime, so she was so frightened that she lost a shoe in a panic.But this is not right, after all, there is smoke at the scene, so it is impossible for her to leave the scene so quickly, which is a bit unreasonable.

All kinds of doubts appeared in Song Wuya's mind, and he thought for a long time before he understood.

However, he didn't rush to say what he thought, but continued to wait for this Xiaohui to speak.

Facing Song Wuya's questioning, Xiaohui said in a crying voice, "My lord, Minnv didn't think so much at that time."

"Then tell me, what did the foot-washing bucket look like at that time?" Song Wuya was not in a hurry, and asked Xiaohui slowly.

"It was covered with blood at that time, I took it back and washed it clean." Xiaohui quickly told the appearance of the foot washing bucket at that time.

Hearing these words, Song Wuya sneered instead: "Hehe! You two really treat our majestic court envoys as fools! Tell me, who ordered you?"

"My lord, what do you mean by that?" Xiao Hui was taken aback when she heard these words, obviously she didn't know what Song Wuya meant.

The reason why he said this was that Song Wuya already understood what was going on in this case.After all, in the current situation, there are many things that he can't understand, but through the appearance of this footbath, he already understands what's going on.

"Come on, take her down for me!" Song Wuya didn't bother to say anything more to her, so he directly asked Hu Butou to take down the maid Xiaohui.

From being the informant at the beginning, now she has become the person Song Wuya wants to arrest.Obviously, this matter has changed a little too quickly, as if this also verified a sentence that is common in mystery novels.The first person to discover the crime scene is often the murderer.

Song Wuya didn't think this sentence was correct at first, but this time he completely believed it.

Several yamen servants immediately stepped forward and took Xiaohui into custody.

Seeing this, Xiaoqiu on the side immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

Seeing that Song Wuya had captured Xiaohui, she immediately said to the two of them: "My lord! The murderer is her!"

Xiaoqiu directly pointed out to the two of them that Xiaohui was the murderer.As for Xiaohui, she didn't have any objection to this point. After all, when she knew that Xiaoqiu was at the scene at that time, she felt that she was about to be exposed.It's just that Xiaoqiu was timid and didn't dare to speak out directly, which made her feel that she had a chance to breathe, but what she didn't expect was that Song Wuya directly identified him as the murderer.

It has to be said that Song Wuya's identification was so accurate that he was able to find the murderer directly.

Bai Zhuo was delighted at the side, after all, he already knew from the beginning that the two maidservants in front of him were lying to him, but he didn't know who the murderer was.

Now that Xiaohui looked indifferent, it was obvious that she was no longer willing to defend herself against such a thing.

"My lord, how do you know that the murderer is me?"

Xiaohui seemed to want to die clearly, and wanted to ask how Song Wuya knew that she was the murderer.

Regarding this point, Song Wuya said with a smile: "It's very simple, it's this foot-washing bucket!"

Bai Zhuo was also taken aback when he heard that, he obviously didn't expect Song Wuya to be able to confirm that Xiaohui was the murderer through this foot-washing bucket.

"Brother Wu Ya, did you judge through a foot-washing bucket?" Bai Zhuo looked at Song Wuya curiously, and he also wanted to find out how Song Wuya used a foot-washing bucket to identify the murderer.

"Brother Bai, we have already seen it at the scene. The murderer was definitely not the only one who came in, and there must be other people besides the murderer. Maybe there are other people besides Xiaoqiu hiding under the bed. Someone has been here. The bloody handprint left on the window was definitely not done by Xiaoqiu."

Song Wuya directly stated his own judgment, because at this time he already knew who the woman who left the bloody handprint, that is, the woman who pretended to be a ghost.

After hearing Song Wuya's analysis, Xiao Qiu immediately nodded and said, "My lord, you are right, I did not make the bloody fingerprints. When I went, there were already bloody fingerprints there."

This is exactly what Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo thought, they had seen that handprint before, obviously it came from a woman, and it was under the bloodstains.This bloodstain was made by the murderer later.And he made it very hasty, obviously she didn't have much time.

"Then you saw the bloody handprint, but you still want to go into that room, what is your purpose?" Bai Zhuo felt very strange when he heard this, and asked curiously while looking at Xiao Qiu.

This is indeed a strange thing, since she is not the one pretending to be a ghost, but she saw bloody handprints on the room, so she dared to go in.After going in, she even hid under the bed, what on earth was she trying to do.

Xiaoqiu lowered her head directly after hearing this question.Seeing her dodging, Bai Zhuo became even more curious.

"Now that the murderer has been caught, what else do you refuse to say and continue to hide from us?"

Bai Zhuo was a little annoyed, after all, the case was about to be closed at this time, but Xiao Qiu still had something to hide from them.

Song Wuya looked at the situation and immediately said: "Xiaoqiu, if you are afraid of being heard by others, then you can come over and tell us in a low voice."

Song Wuya saw that Xiaoqiu was like this, it must be something difficult to say, so he gave her the privilege.

After hearing this, Xiao Qiu came to Song Wuya coyly, and whispered, "My lord, I want to be like Wan'er."

When these words came out, it was really embarrassing to hear.No wonder Xiaoqiu didn't want to say it in front of everyone, it turned out that she thought so in her heart.

Although this may sound a bit unappealing, it is understandable.After all, she is just a lowly maidservant. If she uses such a method, she can be allowed to climb to the top, and she won't have to do such a thing in the future.

Song Wuya didn't despise Xiaoqiu because of this, but just nodded indifferently and said: "Okay, I understand."

After Xiaoqiu went back carefully, Song Wuya looked at Bai Zhuo who was beside him and said, "Brother Bai, there were already bloody fingerprints in the room at that time, but the person who made the haunted sign was no longer in the room. So when Lord Hou entered When I was in the house, Xiaoqiu was the only one in the room. But soon Xiaohui came into the room with Lord Hou, she lit the candle in the room, and then said that she was going to get the footwashing water."

After Song Wuya heard the things that Bai Zhuo asked just now, he had already made a judgment on what happened.

Bai Zhuo nodded: "That's right, that's how things were at that time!"

After he repeated, he continued to look at Song Wuya, waiting for him to continue.

"But at that time, the misty smoke had already been produced, so Master Hou inhaled the misty smoke on the bed, and also felt that there was something wrong with the misty smoke, so he left the bed and walked towards the door." Song Wuya said that he analyzed it The smoky thing.

Speaking of this, Bai Zhuo at the side immediately interrupted him: "That's not right, Brother Wu Ya! Then Xiao Qiu is also in the room, so why is she okay, and Xiao Hui?"

"Xiaoqiu hid under the bed, and the smoke always went up. Maybe it was because of this reason that she didn't inhale the smoke. As for Xiaohui, maybe he had other ways, or maybe it was because she took the candle It's in the study, so it's not affected." He really didn't know about Song Wuya, but there were only two possibilities.

Bai Zhuo nodded after hearing this, and didn't ask any more questions.

Song Wuya continued: "When she returned to this room, she had already seen Lord Hou unconscious. At this moment, she began to implement her murder plan. Xiao Qiu should have seen all of this. At that time, she should have avoided the blood on her clothes, so this foot-washing bucket came in handy."

"Brother Wu Ya, you mean to use the foot-washing bucket to let blood out?" Bai Zhuo almost understood what Song Wuya was going to say when he heard this.

Song Wuya nodded: "Yes, there is water in the bucket, the wound is submerged in the water, and blood will not splash in the water!"

"But we found blood splattered at the scene, and what about the dagger thrown outside the Hou's mansion?" After hearing Song Wuya's analysis, Bai Zhuo immediately pointed out some evidence they found in the Hou's mansion.

Song Wuya smiled slightly and said: "She did all of this on purpose. The purpose was just to make us suspect that the murderer was someone else, but not her, or even the process of committing the crime. When we saw Those splattered bloodstains are completely covered by blood, and can only be judged by a little obvious trace, so it is difficult for us to determine what is going on here."

"Do you still remember that there was a lot of blood at the scene? This is the most critical question. How could Lord Hou have so much blood by himself? So it is said that a lot of water was mixed into the large amount of blood. There are so many." Song Wuya analyzed some suspicious points at the scene, and told Bai Zhuo what happened.

After receiving Song Wuya's analysis, Bai Zhuo nodded, obviously agreeing with his statement.

As for Xiaohui in front of her, her face was gloomy, it can be seen that she has nothing else to ask for now.Even if she wanted to refute, she probably had no chance.Leaving aside Song Wuya's inference and all kinds of evidence to prove it, especially her performance on the spot, she couldn't even tell.

In addition, there is Xiaoqiu who has witnessed everything, she can see the whole crime process clearly, so this case cannot be understood.

"What else do you have to say?" Bai Zhuo immediately questioned Xiaohui. After all, she was already sure that she was the murderer, but it would be a better thing if she admitted it herself at this time.
