Chapter 155 Full of Mysteries
"Hey, then why don't you take it out and let us see it?"
Fang Duobing looked at Qing'er, who was not moving, and really wanted to take it himself, but unfortunately he didn't know where it was put.
"Now you think I'm useful, but don't you find us an eyesore?"
"Miss Qing'er is incredibly clever. I admire how well she hid this ledger. How could it be an eyesore? I was talking about someone else."
"Then come with me."
Qing'er was quite pleased by Fang Duobing's words and happily led the people towards the location where the account book was hidden.
"Fang Duobing, why are you still holding this tattered rope? It's all dirty."
“You don’t understand, do you? This is evidence that proves Xin Jue himself hung the rattan on the rattan basket, went up the mountain to kill people, and then set fire to the rattan. Of course, we have to bring this with us.”
"I think you're quite smart, so why would you think that?"
"Li Lianhua, she's talking about you."
Fang Duobing shifted the blame eastward, directly pointing the finger at Li Lianhua.
“I heard it, she said your name.”
"You two, that's enough. Wu You, since you've said that, what advice do you have for me?"
Although he had been told off, Fang Duobing still wanted to know what Wu You was going to say and whether it was related to the case.
"How could I dare to offer any advice? I feel I'm in your way, so I won't say anything that might bother you."
"I think that was a misunderstanding. I meant that the two men were an eyesore, while the girl was as beautiful as a flower, as lovely as an angel, and naturally pleasing to the eye."
Fang Duobing could easily come up with flattering words, demonstrating his ability to be flexible and adaptable.
"Then tell me, have you noticed anything different?"
"Then let me point out a point of doubt. In the dark of night, with the moon high in the sky, if you don't want anyone to discover the problem, you have to burn the rope quickly."
"To burn the rope quickly, you would have to smear it with flammable oil or alcohol, just like the black oil on a rattan basket, right?"
"That's right, that's exactly it."
“It will be harder to climb if you apply black oil, and it will take twice as long.”
"Could it be that the Ghost King Blade wiped the mark on the ground as it came down from the mountain after killing someone?"
Qing'er joined the chat group.
"Let's just assume that's what they did. But ropes smeared with black oil or alcohol must burn extremely fast, right?"
"That's true. If the fire gets too big, Bihuang, who danced on Zhaixing Cliff all night, will definitely see it."
Fang Duobing suddenly realized.
"That means there was more than one person who killed Yu Louchun; Bi Huang must have been an accomplice."
Li Lianhua also joined in.
"Impossible, Sister Bihuang would never..."
Qing'er quickly retorted.
"Whether it's possible or not, we can just go and ask."
Fang proposed the best solution for multiple diseases.
"One more thing, if the fire gets too big, it might not burn the rattan basket to death, but it will at least blacken the bottom. Did you notice that the rattan basket was blackened by the smoke just now? I didn't see it."
Wu You knew that it wasn't there, so naturally he didn't see it.
"No, I didn't see it either."
Fang Duobing echoed.
"Furthermore, since the rope was burned starting from the foot of Kan Yunfeng Mountain, only one end should have been burned. Your section of rope was burned at both ends, which doesn't make sense."
"What you say makes sense, which means..."
"That means the murderer is very likely not Guard Xin, and this rope was just thrown there by someone."
Li Lianhua's summary is spot on.
"If that's the case, do you still want to pay that debt?"
Qing'er needs to ask clearly first. If the person is brought over but then they decide not to want them, wouldn't it be a wasted trip?
"Yes, of course we want to. Anyway, we don't have any leads right now, so let's go take a look. Keep leading the way."
"Let's go this way then."
Qing'er walked in front, and the others followed behind.
