Before he could speak at Chi Shi, the old lady Fang showed a faint dignity in her eyes, "Don't say, the murderer knocked down the stool. My other three granddaughters are all in the room. If the murderer kicked down the stool, after they lighted the light, wouldn't the murderer have nowhere to hide?"

Chi Shi raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Do your son really passes the Jinshi exam and then serves in the Ministry of Rites? From this point of view, the saying that mother is so busy is completely unreasonable!"

"Don't look at everyone with the look that I know in my chest. There is no light of wisdom flashing in your body. It will only make people have a thought, so it's better to shut up."

Chi Shi said, shaking his head despite the anger of old lady Fang, shook her head and raised her two fingers, "If the murderer is one of your three remaining granddaughters, then there will be no such concerns as you said."

"According to Miss Fang San, they searched for fire slashes to light the lights for a long time. After the lights in the room were on, their attention was attracted by the corpse hanging on the beam. So, the murderer had all the time, kicked the stool down, and pretended to be like everyone else, and just found the body."

When the Fang family heard this, their faces changed. Especially the three girls, they were shocked and said in unison, "It's not us, it's not us, we didn't kill anyone!"

Miss Fang San was the most calm. After thinking about it, she added, "Si Niang slept on the left. I slept on the middle with Liu Niang, and Wu Niang slept on the right. The two of them covered a quilt. This is Si Niang's house. She sleeps lightly, and the window is blocked by a thick curtain. At night, she can't see her five fingers."

"After I heard the sound, I was very scared and reached out to touch both sides. The fourth lady was no longer there, but the fifth lady and sixth lady were there, and the three of us still spoke, and then the lights were lit together. It was definitely not like you said, the murderer returned to us again!"

Chi Shi narrowed his eyes and nodded, "Don't worry. Although I said that, it is not the case in this case. Perhaps because the murderer inherited the old lady's wisdom, he deliberately added to the trick and created a big drama that he thought was smart."

"Little do you know that it is precisely because of this that evidence of murder was left."

Chi Shi said, and walked to the round stool that was lying on the ground, pointed to the two footprints on the top and said, "Do your girl still need to go to the ground to dig the soil? Otherwise, why would the soft-bottomed shoes worn in the inner room be stained with such heavy dust, as if she was afraid that others would not have thought that the deceased would commit suicide by standing on top."

"What's strange is that this stool has no footprints on the side, except for a pair of footprints on the stool. Think about it, what kind of action does a person stand on the stool and hang up and then stomp down the stool..."

"Jiule!" Chi Shi threw the whip in his hand.

Jiule reached out and walked over with a smile. He moved the same round stool from the side, stood up, then passed the whip through the beam of the room, grabbed one end of the whip with one hand, as if it was swinging, shrank his feet and kicked the edge of the stool, and knocked the stool to the ground.

Comparing the two stools, everyone instantly understood why Chi Shi said that it was a killing rather than a suicide.

It hasn't rained recently, there is just some mud on the ground.

Jiule stepped on the stool and left only light footprints, but when he stepped on the stool hard, he left more obvious footprints on the side. At the same time, due to the force, some gray fell down and fell on the ground.

When Mrs. Fang looked at Chi deeply, she no longer dared to talk nonsense like before.

If she didn't know that there was a powerful character in this mansion today, then she would have lived in vain for so many years.

"Since it was not pushed by the murderer, how did this stool fall down? It can't be just a fall down by itself." Old Mrs. Fang rubbed her eyebrows and asked weakly.

The nanny standing beside her hurriedly brought a stool, asked her to sit down, took out another small bottle, put it under her nose, and let her suck it.

Chi Shi looked and squatted down, "It's very simple, because someone put an iron ring on one foot of the stool. Then he tied the thread on the iron ring. She lay on the bed, pulled the thread, seized the opportunity, and pulled the stool down."

"In this way, when the stool fell to the ground, she was lying on the bed like everyone else. Then everyone scattered to find the fire stick and light the lamp. In this process, she could easily remove the iron ring tied with the rope and put it away."

"The evidence is here. Please see the inside of the stool, which is worn by the iron ring, leaving new traces left behind. The iron ring is very hard, and the stool has been worn off and painted."

Chi Shi said, looking at the three sisters of the Fang family, raised his hand and pointed, "You are the murderer, Miss Fang Liu."

Miss Fang Liu was shocked and jumped back. She was the youngest, tender and white, and had a baby fat on her face. At this moment, because of fear, her big eyes were wide open, and her eyes seemed to be falling off.

"I... why did I kill the fourth sister? Now the fourth sister and the fifth sister are talking about marriage. One marriage is in the capital and the other is in Anyang! The two of them are fighting hard, what does it have to do with me?"

"Why should I kill the fourth sister? We have no grudges... Even if there is a rift, I will go to the capital in the future and she will marry back to Anyang. She is a hundred and eight thousand miles away and can't be seen once a year. Why should I kill her at this critical moment!"

Chi Shi curled the corners of his mouth, "The evil wolf always likes to pretend to be a little white rabbit, so that he can easily deceive people."

"I have said a long time ago that some people are smart and add to their own abilities, and have done a lot of things that should not be done. Smart people are called cleaning up the scene and destroying evidence; stupid people are called trying to cover up more, and doing more mistakes!"

"The evidence that you are the murderer is on your feet! Look at the feet of the three of you."

Everyone in the room listened to Chi Shi's words and looked at the three of them in unison.

When she saw this, Old Lady Fang, who was sitting aside and sucking the cooling medicine, exclaimed, "Liu Niang, your shoes!"

"That's right, the ladies of wealthy families have carefully matched their clothes, jewelry, shoes, cloaks, veils, and sachets. They will never appear. They are wearing pink skirts, but are wearing goose yellow embroidered embroidered shoes with mandarin ducks playing in the water."

"As soon as I came in, I saw the body of Fang Si Niangzi, and I noticed something strange. So, whose feet are the embroidered shoes in the pink dress of Miss Fang Si Niangzi? On your feet, Miss Fang Liu."

Chi Shi said, walking to the door, "This is not the first strange thing I have found. The most puzzling thing is that you four have already turned off the lights and went to bed. Why did Lady Fang, who wanted to commit suicide, still dressed properly and hanged to death?"

Everyone in the Fang family took it out of the quilt and put on clothes in a hurry. Almost no one had time to wear a head flower... Only the dead lady Fang Si was different.
