Playing bad and eating melons: The whole court is laughing? No, no

Interrogation room of the Supervisory Department.

Cao Wenhao sat on a specially made stool, opposite him were Jiang Yueyang, Bai Ze and others.

Jiang Yueyang wanted to see the interrogation ability of King Yan and his men, so she and Bai Ze only listened here and did not participate in the interrogation.

"let's start."

As Jiang Yueyang's voice fell, the eager King of Yan spoke first, "Cao Wenhao, how did you get the injury on your arm?"

Because they knew in advance that the deceased was afraid of blood, they examined Cao Wenhao's body when they brought him back.

This examination was suggested by Jiang Xun because he felt that the blood used to scare the victim unconscious was either prepared in advance by the murderer or made on the spot by the murderer.

Since there were no injuries on the deceased, the blood could only be from the murderer.

As expected, there was a wound on Cao Wenhao's arm caused by a sharp weapon, and the wound was not shallow.

Cao Wenhao had already thought of an excuse and replied calmly, "I bought a dagger not long ago and accidentally scratched myself while playing with it."

"Why did you buy a dagger? When and where did you buy it from?" King Yan continued to ask.

"I bought it from Liu's blacksmith shop seven days ago. I bought it for self-defense."

Seeing that his answer was flawless, the King of Yan became a little anxious. "Since you bought a dagger for self-defense, you must have encountered danger. Tell me, what danger did you encounter?"

"Sir, do you have to be in danger before buying a dagger for self-defense?" Cao Wenhao said with a slight smile. "Can't I just take precautions? Who knows when danger will strike?"

The King of Yan was choked and speechless for a moment, his face flushed. Just as he was about to speak again, Jiang Yueyang unexpectedly held down his arm.

She turned her head to look at her brother, "Deacon Jiang, it's your turn to ask."

Jiang Xun nodded, then picked up a few manuscripts and walked towards Cao Wenhao.

He showed the manuscripts to Cao Wenhao one by one, and the word "read" was circled on each manuscript.

"What do you mean, sir?" Cao Wenhao didn't understand what he wanted to do.

Jiang Xun unfolded the deceased's suicide note and compared it with the manuscript. The word "念" (read) in the suicide note was also circled.

Cao Wenhao immediately understood and his expression changed slightly.

"Look at the word 'Nian' on the suicide note. Is it exactly the same as the word 'Nian' you wrote?"

Cao Wenhao's face turned pale, and he feigned composure as he argued, "What does that even mean? People are similar, and so are their handwriting!"

"Really?" Jiang Xun took out another manuscript, "Take another look at the word 'read' on this manuscript."

Cao Wenhao looked over and found that it was the deceased's handwriting. The next second, his eyes widened in shock.

The circled word "念" above is different from the one in the suicide note!

As soon as Jiang Xun saw his expression, he knew that he had discovered something different and chuckled, "Discovered it?"

Cao Wenhao looked away, "I don't understand what the adults are talking about."

"It's okay if you don't understand. I'll tell you!" Jiang Xun put the suicide note in his hand on the table. "You forged this suicide note, and you killed the deceased with your own hands!"

"I didn't, I didn't kill anyone!" Cao Wenhao's look suddenly became ferocious.

Jiang Xun ignored his roar and continued, "Let me analyze this. On the day the deceased was murdered, you went to see him and congratulated him on his upcoming marriage. During that time, you found an excuse to send Aunt Li away.

After Aunt Li left, you slashed your arm with a dagger, causing the victim to faint from the sight of blood... and finally completed this closed-room murder disguised as a suicide."

"This is just your reasoning! I didn't kill anyone!" Cao Wenhao still refused to admit it.

The system exclaimed in admiration: [Host, your brother is quite good at investigating and interrogating cases!]

[That's right!] Jiang Yueyang said proudly, [My brother has always been excellent at everything he does since he was a child!]

[But...] She changed the subject, [What was Cao Wenhao's motive for murder?]

Hearing the voices coming one after another, Cao Wenhao was stunned at first, then looked at Jiang Yueyang in horror, unable to find his own voice for a while.

Jiang Xun remained unperturbed and continued, "Most murderers have a motive for murder. Let me guess your motive. Do you think it's correct?"

He curled his lips and stared into Cao Wenhao's eyes, his voice filled with laughter making people shudder. "The Li family is poor, so you couldn't have killed for money. In addition, the deceased's academic performance was always inferior to yours, so it couldn't be because of vanity.

Then... the only two motives are that the deceased did something to offend you, or that it was because of a woman."

System: [It's a woman! Li Jinxian's unmarried wife is from a wealthy family and an only child.

Cao Wenhao didn't want to struggle, so he seduced the bride. After his efforts, the bride fell in love with him.

However, the bride did not dare to disobey her father. As long as Li Jinxian did not break off the engagement, the bride had to marry Li Jinxian.

Li Jinxian loves the bride and will never break off the engagement. Therefore, in order to obtain the bride's property, Cao Wenhao decides to kill Li Jinxian and then find an opportunity to have sex with the bride.

Jiang Yueyang tutted his tongue in disdain. "A scholar who doesn't care about getting a good academic degree, but only wants to live off others and make money. He's brought shame upon scholars!"

Jiang Xun also believed that Cao Wenhao killed people because of a woman, so he said, "I guess it was because of a woman. Then this woman must be the deceased's wife. I wonder if she knows anything?"

[I know, she knows!] The system replied excitedly, [On the day the deceased was murdered, the bride secretly went to see Li Jinxian, hoping that he would cancel the engagement, but unexpectedly she witnessed Cao Wenhao murdering someone!]

After hearing what the system said, everyone smiled at the same time. The case could be closed.

Jiang Xun looked at Cao Wenhao, who looked dead, and smiled slightly. "Si Zheng, is it possible to ask the deceased's unmarried bride to cooperate with our investigation?"

"Row!"
