Chapter 42: Does drawing facial features count as evidence?
Lin Siyao's words stunned everyone, including the viewers in the live stream.
Last night, because Lin Sui and his group didn't go into the Liu family's courtyard, netizens couldn't see what Sharp Little Monster went through.
But they also witnessed the Sharp Little Monster run in and never come out again.
[Isn't the killer a ghost? Where is she supposed to find the murderer?]
[I found it strange before, why was she so certain that the crying was a recording?]
Don't be so naive; she's the one who seems to be holding the script.
[You guys have really been brainwashed by Lin Sui. She says it's a ghost, so it's a ghost?]
[If Lin Sui is really as powerful as you say, yet he knowingly stood by and watched the Sharp Little Monster die, don't you find such a selfish and cold-hearted person terrifying?]
【Cold-blooded my ass! So you weren't the one killed by that guy? Or are you some kind of Notre Dame who escaped from Notre Dame? Go back to your Notre Dame and ring the bells!】
Lin Sui avoided the gore and quickly glanced at the face on the torso's head.
His face turned bluish-purple, his mouth was wide open, one pale eyeball had popped out of its socket, and the other eyeball was also protruding more than halfway out, clearly indicating that he had suffered inhumane fright before his death.
But no matter how distorted his features were, people could still tell at a glance that he was the sharp little monster who should have died in the Liu family.
As for why his body was found here...
Lin Sui glanced again at the still-closed door next to her.
Despite the commotion outside, the people inside remained calm.
He's someone who's capable of great things.
"Siyao, this is not a game." Duan Xuchi's gaze was deep. "Are you sure?"
He knew that Lin Siyao had keen insight and that she was very smart.
The body had only just been discovered, and no autopsy had been performed. It was not even possible to determine whether it was murder or suicide followed by dismemberment.
How could she possibly deduce the murderer so quickly?
Lin Siyao was a little unhappy about being questioned, but she didn't show it.
Her slender white finger pointed at Xia Juntao, her words filled with certainty: "He's the murderer."
Xia Juntao was taken aback and subconsciously looked at Lin Sui.
Lin Sui glanced at his face.
Xia Juntao's face still had a deathly aura, which meant that the life-threatening crisis for him had not yet been resolved.
However, it is certain that he did not kill anyone, because there was no black aura swirling between his brows.
Black aura is different from death aura, which only appears on people who are about to die.
The possibility of black energy appearing is varied, one of which is that it is tainted with human blood.
Everything in the world has its own set of laws of balance. Even if someone makes a mistake, taking their life before their lifespan is over is against the way of heaven and will result in backlash.
This manifests on the face as being surrounded by dark energy, which is also known as retribution.
At best, it brings a string of bad luck; at worst, it leads to the destruction of the family and death.
It's unfair to some people.
This is why there are so many acts that defy the will of Heaven.
Thinking that Xia Juntao's matter was also related to the truth of the ghost story and involved ten million yuan, Lin Sui felt it was necessary to defend him.
Lin Sui: "He didn't kill the person."
Her tone was calm, yet inexplicably convincing.
Duan Xuchi couldn't help but ask, "Where's the evidence?"
Lin Sui paused, then remained silent for a moment.
"Would it count if I drew his face?" she asked politely and sincerely.
Duan Xuchi: "..." A vein throbbed on his forehead.
He really shouldn't have had any expectations of someone who liked to act mysteriously.
Lin Siyao took a deep breath, seemingly exasperated by Lin Sui's antics: "This is a matter of life and death, can you please stop making a scene?"
She really didn't understand why a random passerby dared to get involved.
Lin Sui doesn't think that just because a few important characters said a few words on her behalf, she can suddenly become the female lead, right?
"That's strange." Lu Xiang blinked her cat-like eyes, seemingly puzzled. "We just have different opinions from you, why do you think we're joking around?"
"Or do you have evidence to prove that Xia Juntao is the murderer?"
"Of course I do," Lin Siyao said with a confident smile.
She recalled Duan Xuchi's lines from the novel: "On our first day at the haunted house, I noticed that Xia Juntao seemed to be very familiar with the house."
"When Wen Ge arrived, he wanted to take a shower and was looking for a bathroom when Xia Juntao naturally took him there."
"Later, we went to ask the villagers about the situation. I overheard him call out an old man's surname as soon as he opened his mouth, which means that he is not only familiar with the house, but also with the people here."
"Because of these things, I paid more attention to him and found that whenever we mentioned Xia Yaoyao, his expression was a bit strange and he looked very serious."
"Looking at Xia Yaoyao's case, the villagers only say that her grandparents and mother are all dead, but where is her father?"
“I asked around about Xia Yaoyao’s father. Although they are old, they only remember that her father’s name was Xia Er and that he disappeared after the family incident. But when Xia Juntao was mentioned, they all felt that he looked somewhat like him.”
"Therefore, I reasonably suspect that Xia Juntao is Xia Yaoyao's father."
After a series of reasoned arguments, Wen Ge nodded repeatedly in agreement.
He also remembered the first day he took a bath.
Duan Xuchi, who had also noticed these anomalies and personally accompanied Lin Siyao on her visits and inquiries, made no secret of his admiration for her.
At this moment, Wen Ge asked again, completely confused, "But Xia Juntao is Xia Yaoyao's father. What is his relationship with Zhou Ming? Why did he kill Zhou Ming?"
"Because of Xia Yaoyao," Duan Xuchi said in a deep voice.
Lin Siyao nodded: "That's right, Xia Yaoyao's death is not that simple."
"She was indeed murdered, but it wasn't necessarily her mother, otherwise the villagers wouldn't have kept quiet about it."
"When Zhou Ming first arrived, he said that he was also from Lotus Village. If you calculate his age, he should not have been much older than Xia Yaoyao back then."
“We asked him on the first night, but he said he didn’t remember Xia Yaoyao. Xia Juntao’s expression was not good at that time.”
"So Zhou Ming might be the real culprit who killed Xia Yaoyao. Xia Juntao killed him to avenge his daughter."
Xia Juntao shuddered, his eyes turning bloodshot.
Viewers who were glued to the live stream were stunned, especially Lin Siyao's fans, who flooded the screen with "666".
【My goodness, Yao Yao is so smart! She's definitely a reincarnation of Judge Dee!】
[I've been watching her the whole time, but I didn't even notice what she was saying. Am I watching a fake variety show?]
[Xia Juntao is actually Xia Yaoyao's father? No wonder Lin Sui specifically called him out on the first night; she probably already knew then.]
[Can those royals who got the script please stop trying to take advantage of Yao Yao's skillful reasoning? How unlucky!]
[Yes, yes, yes, you guys are really something. Xia Juntao's every move was almost always on camera, and you still managed to lie through your teeth and frame him. You're really something else.]
Since Xia Juntao concealed his identity, he must have come prepared. If he wanted to kill someone, would he let you see it?
