Cypress Boat Floating

The deaths of five people would not cause any particularly big impact in the capital, especially since these people died at different times and stages. Ordinary people would think that this was just an ordinary case, and no one would really take it seriously.

Ye Jianqing was holding the case that Lu Ci Qiu brought back and reading it. The Dali Temple had not yet figured out anything. After all, everyone died in different places and at different times, and it was hard to say whether they could be connected into a single line. It would be difficult to really find any pattern from it.

Some of the bodies have already been buried. The ancients believed in resting the dead in peace so that the government would not be able to find out anything. If the bodies were kept in the charity cemetery, the families would not agree, so they demanded that the bodies be buried, otherwise it would be a desecration of the bodies. Even the government could do nothing about this.

"What do you think?" Ye Jianqing covered his head with something and sighed deeply. Solve cases, solve cases, why are there cases every day this year? Is the security in the capital so bad? Why are there cases every day?

She really thinks that her ability to solve cases is average.

"I have no idea." Lu Ci Qiu shook his head honestly and took a piece of pastry that Ye Jianqing had left there to eat.

"No idea!" Ye Jianqing almost overturned the table and hit someone when he heard this. The meaning of Lu Zhixing handing this thing to him was very clear, that is, he wanted him to solve the case, but he said he had no idea. Doesn't that mean that their future progress will be very difficult?

"What's the point of just looking at the files? We still have to go to the scene to see it. But so much time has passed, the environment at the scene must have been destroyed. Our going there will only make the victim's family sad, and it will be useless." After eating the pastries, Lu Ci Qiu peeled a peanut for himself and put it in his mouth, quite nonchalantly. Ye Jianqing turned a blind eye and didn't even look at him, otherwise it would seem stupid that he was the only one working hard.

Lu Ci Qiu: "There is a body in the charity cemetery. This body died a few days ago. If you really want to check, we can go and take a look."

Corpse~

Another corpse.

Ye Jianqing said that he didn't want to see the corpse for the time being. It was such a hot day and he didn't know what the corpse would look like after being left there for a few days.

But there is no other way. If they want to solve the case, they have to start with these corpses.

"Where are the autopsy results? Let's study the information first before going over." Ye Jianqing stretched out her hand to ask Lu Ci Qiu for the autopsy results. She didn't believe that the Dali Temple would not arrange someone to perform an autopsy, but there were no autopsy results in the information on hand, so it could only be said that Lu Ci Qiu did not take it out.

After spending a long time with Ye Jianqing, Lu Ci Qiu was able to understand some of the strange words Ye Jianqing uttered, such as "eat thoroughly". At first, he thought Ye Jianqing wanted to eat something, but after listening to her explanation, he knew what it meant.

"I don't think it will be of much use." Lu Ci Qiu said as he handed her another file.

"Whether it has a big effect or not, you will know after you see it."

Ye Jianqing took the autopsy results, but seemed not to intend to look at them and had no desire to open his eyes at all.

"Don't watch?" Lu Ci Qiu was curious.

"Not for now." Ye Jianqing flipped the file off his face and said seriously, "I'm thinking, if someone wants to harm them intentionally, what is their purpose?"

"Purpose?"

"Yes!" Ye Jianqing sat up straight. "Everything should have a purpose. If there is no purpose, then why did he kill people?"

"why?"

"That's the problem. First of all, we can't assume that their deaths are related. If we put aside this issue and regard each person as an independent individual, then who wants to kill them? What good will it do after killing them?"

Lu Ci Qiu recalled the files that he had read in Ye Jianqing's hands.

Among the five people, the first one is an ordinary farmer who farms for the landlord. His family, young and old, depends on him for food every day. He is well-known in the village and outside the village. Everyone in the village has a good relationship with him and no one has ever had a conflict with him. From this point of view, it seems that no one wants to kill him on purpose.

The second one is a rice seller. He runs a small shop to make a living. If anyone in the village has no food to eat, he would be willing to buy a bag of rice from him on credit. He never questions others and is always kind to others.

The third one is a worker at the dock. He goes out early and comes back late every day to support himself by selling his labor. He is the only one left at home, and if he is full, the whole family will not be hungry. The neighbors also say that he is honest and well-behaved. The employer also likes such people. He will not take the initiative to quarrel with others at the dock.

The fourth one is a teacher in a private school. He taught many students and was very kind to them. All the students and parents praised him. When some students were unable to come to school due to financial difficulties, he would ask them and teach them at their homes.

The fifth one is the waiter of Kelai Inn. The waiter has been working here for at least several years. The guests say that the waiter is very smart and sensible, and they give him high praise. Even the harsh inn owner thinks that the waiter is the best one he has employed over the years. Now that the waiter is dead, he is very sad.

Lu Ci Qiu couldn't think of who would benefit after the five of them died.

Ye Jianqing: "First, how is his revenue? Is there anyone in the village who is jealous of his land? Or dislikes him?"

"No, I've asked around. Everyone in the village has about the same land, and the harvests are the same, because they all belong to the landlords. It's okay as long as everyone is about the same. There's no competition or anything like that."

Ye Jianqing nodded in understanding, and then asked: "Second, the rice shop owner was murdered, so will his rival's business improve?"

Lu Ci Qiu shook his head: "He was the only one in the village who sold rice. After he died, everyone had to go to the city to buy rice."

Ye Jianqing raised his eyebrows, indicating that he understood. "Third, is there really no competition among the workers? If he dies, will someone be able to make more money?"

"That's right. There's not always work to do at the dock. If he performs well and does a good job, then naturally more people will come to him. Since he died, other people at the dock have been able to get more work."

This was within Ye Jianqing's expectations, so there was no surprise: "The fourth one, the private school teacher..."

I always have respect for Mr. Ye Jianqing, the teacher who teaches and educates people. When I heard what Lu Ci Qiu said just now, I knew that this teacher was a good person. Regardless of whether his death was related to anyone, it was heartbreaking.

"After the teacher was killed, many students and parents came to pay their respects. Everyone was very sad. He was the only teacher who didn't charge any money and cared for all students unconditionally."

"I feel sorry for this gentleman." I have experienced many cases and seen many victims, most of whom were innocent. Are innocent people destined to be victimized?

"The fifth one..." Ye Jianqing swallowed back the discomfort in her heart. She still had to deal with the case with Lu Ci Qiu, and she couldn't be affected by her emotions at this time.

"Inns and restaurants are full of gossip. Is it possible that the waiter heard something he shouldn't have heard at some point?"

Lu Ci Qiu looked embarrassed: "If that's the case, there are so many people coming and going in the inn every day, it's really difficult to eliminate them one by one."

"The social network of each victim has nothing to do with their victimization, so we have to think divergently and think about whether they encountered something in a certain process that led to their victimization." Ye Jianqing was thinking frantically, but perhaps it was because he hadn't used his brain like this for too long since his recovery, and he overused his brain for a while and his eyes went dark.

"Are you okay?" Lu Ci Qiu, who had been paying attention to Ye Jianqing, noticed her discomfort and became extremely worried. These two months really scared Lu Ci Qiu.

If possible, he would like to hang Ye Jianqing around his waist and watch over him at all times.

"Let's take a break first. You've just recovered. Don't think too much." Lu Ci Qiu walked behind Ye Jianqing and habitually stretched out his hand to press her temples, allowing her to relax and rest.

"Do you think these cases have anything to do with the Shinto shrine?" Ye Jianqing closed his eyes and enjoyed the horse-killing chicken massage provided by Lu Ci Qiu.

"It's very likely." Lu Ci Qiu nodded, but when he thought that Ye Jianqing had his eyes closed and couldn't see, he turned around and answered.

"If it really has something to do with the Shinto House, then what is their purpose? These people are innocent civilians. I can understand that the Shinto House is targeting me, but why would they target ordinary people?" Ye Jianqing became even more angry when he thought of the Shinto House using its power to cruelly murder those unarmed civilians.

She was taught from a young age that the weapons in her hands are used against the enemy and to protect her own people.

But now these people are pointing their guns at ordinary people, making them bear the pain that they should not have to bear.

"Could it be an instruction from the Divine Religion?" Lu Ci Qiu asked.

"The Religion of the Gods?"

"Yes, we have been talking about the God House all the time, but don't forget, behind the God House is the so-called God Cult, so maybe it is the so-called God Cult that is instructing the God House to do these things."

"Then... it's still the same reason. What's the reason?" Ye Jianqing smacked his lips and said impatiently, "Could it be that they are still killing people indiscriminately?"

Indiscriminate killing...

and many more……

"What's wrong?" Ye Jianqing suddenly jumped up and scared Lu Ci Qiu.

"Indiscriminate killing!" Ye Jianqing was extremely excited, and looked like he was going to solve the case in the next second.

“?” Lu Ci Qiu was puzzled.

"If the Shenling Sect is a cult as we said before, then it makes a lot more sense for him to kill people indiscriminately!"
