Chapter 135 This evidence makes me suspect I am the murderer
"I am suspected of a murder?"
Ryan was confused after hearing this. He thought that these guys were trying to frame him by tricking him into going to the public security department and then torturing him to extract a confession.
He sneered and asked directly: "Mr. Law Enforcement Officer, who am I suspected of killing?"
The white-robed wizard said calmly, "August Winster. He is the fifth city lord of the City of Glory and the eldest son of the Winster family."
"August?"
When Ryan heard it, he realized it was indeed the name.
But although he had heard of this young master's name, they had no connection at all?
Oh, that's not right!
This guy came over last night, with an attitude of giving "face to Brother Liangchen", and wanted to ask for the [Sacred Gloves of Canap], and then I told him to "get out"?
Could it be that the guy died in the beast tide, and these people suspected him of being the murderer because of this "motive"?
Or maybe he wasn't dead at all and this was just a trumped-up excuse?
Since they were going to have a falling out today, Ryan was not in a hurry and asked calmly, "Your Honor, my friend and I were dealing with the beast tide last night until just now. When did I participate in a murder? Where did the murder take place? Where is the body?"
You want to convict someone with just one sentence? No way!
Since they are the "law enforcement team", Ryan wants to see if they dare to blatantly trample on the laws of Glory City!
"Carry it here."
But obviously, the white-robed wizard also came prepared.
He raised his hand and waved, and two forensic doctors in white coats came over carrying a corpse covered with white cloth.
The great wizard said again: "Explain the current situation to this gentleman."
One of the judges said, "The time of death was 20 minutes ago. The body was found in a storage ring of a tent 500 meters away from here. The cause of death was a severe blow to the head, resulting in a fractured skull, brain contusion and laceration, occipital bone shatter, and subdural hemorrhage..."
He gave a bunch of professional descriptions of the injuries on the bodies.
Ryan also understood.
It’s actually very simple. The guy named August was punched in the back of the head and died twenty minutes ago.
Then, perhaps because there was no time to destroy the body, someone put it in a storage ring to prevent it from being discovered.
He frowned and asked curiously, "Tens of thousands of people died in the camp. Why do you think I am the murderer?"
After a pause, he said directly , "Could it be that because Master August tried to rob my spoils yesterday, you think I have a motive to kill him? Also, you were able to find the people in the storage ring. Did you use divination? Could it be that you used divination to determine that I was the murderer?"
"If I remember correctly, the laws of Glory City clearly stipulate that divination results cannot be used as evidence to convict a person..."
Ryan did not hide his disdain in the slightest.
If this is the reason, then the level of these guys' frame-up is too low.
Of course, if Ryan were to make the inference himself, he would also list himself as the first suspect.
But unfortunately, he didn't kill the person!
However, he was also very curious. How could the eldest son of the Winster family be murdered?
Wow, this is quite interesting.
If it was a frame-up, the price seemed too high.
…
"Divination is indeed not evidence."
Hearing this, the white-robed wizard remained expressionless and confirmed Ryan's statement.
This was the brilliance of Master Kavo when he formulated the law, although "divination" is very effective in solving cases.
But the cost is too high, and it is too subjective, and can be easily influenced by objective circumstances, such as: the divination is wrong, or the fortune teller's position is not absolutely neutral.
He explained directly: "Every descendant of the Winster family has a special magical mark on their body. Therefore, even if their bodies are hidden or burned after they were murdered, we can accurately locate the final location of the crime!"
When Ryan heard this, he became interested.
So there is a "magic marker"?
“Eh…”
Suddenly, his thoughts raced, and he vaguely guessed a possibility!
The great wizard continued, "Last night's quarrel was indeed one of the reasons why we suspected you. But the most fundamental reason was because of the cause of Master August's death."
"Let me explain the following."
At this time, a muscular bald man came out. He first introduced himself, "I am Kuchi Rosas, the fifth disciple of the Qianghu Grandmaster of the 'Ba Hu Martial Arts School' in Guanghui City."
When you give your own name, you are speaking with authority and taking responsibility.
Ryan glanced sideways slightly; he knew the bald man.
Without further ado, wait for the next part.
The bald man directly lifted the white cloth on the stretcher, then pointed at the body with a smashed back of the head and said, "What caused August's fatal injury was the heavy blow to the back of the head, not from a sharp weapon, but from a fist. The mark is very obvious, a cracked and penetrating wound. This is an injury caused by the fist technique [Cannon Fist] in the secret of fighting!"
After hearing this, Ryan finally understood what the other party was trying to say, and he finally understood where the real murderous intention lay!
He exclaimed in his heart: Professional!
What we just saw were just childish frame-ups, this is the real powerful move!
The bald man continued, "According to the results of the wound examination, the assailant attacked from behind and killed Master August with a [Cannon Fist]. Moreover... there was no trace of fighting spirit in this punch! This means..."
A half-smile appeared on Ryan's face, and he borrowed the words and continued, "That means the murderer is either a first-level transcendent who can use [Cannon Fist], or a high-level transcendent who deliberately didn't use fighting spirit to kill people?"
After hearing this, everyone understood.
Since the body was deliberately hidden, murder is obviously more likely.
If it's a frame-up, there's no need to hide the body; the sooner it's discovered the better.
What's more, if it was a frame-up, killing the eldest son of the Winster family would be too costly and risky, and there would be no need for it. They could just kill someone else.
All these clues would make people think that this was a "vendetta".
Moreover, the wound was caused by [Cannon Fist], so the direction was even more precise.
There are not many people who know the secrets of fighting. There are less than 10,000 people in the entire base, and only 1,800 fighters. But only one in ten can know one or two secrets.
[Cannon Fist] is one of the two most difficult ones among the "Six Fighting Styles". I suspect the circle has become even smaller, estimated to be around 10 to 20 people.
Excluding the possibility of a high-level transcendental person framing him, the person who took action might be a first-level [Awakener] who is not possessed by fighting spirit.
After yesterday's competition, everyone knew that Ryan knew at least three secret techniques.
It’s not surprising that he knows the [Cannon Fist].
…
"Did I kill him?"
At this moment, Ryan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. All the clues pointed to him. No wonder others came to him.
You're quibbling that you don't know how to use the [Cannon Fist]?
Now it’s not up to you to decide whether it will happen or not... These evidences are enough for the “law enforcement team” to arrest and interrogate people!
But if you change your way of thinking, the truth will become clear in an instant.
Because Ryan himself was the person involved, he was sure that he did not kill anyone and must have been framed.
That means that the person who framed him must be able to use the [Cannon Fist], or be close enough to attack August by surprise, and also know that he has a "magic mark" on him...
The circle of suspicion is even smaller.
Thinking about what happened before, Ryan was certain that this matter was 100% related to those guys from the "Sunflower Chamber of Commerce"!
[Cannon Fist] Secret Technique, that Wumu will!
Maybe Fei Ya, who has advanced to the second level, will be able to do it too.
These two guys are the ones who can really sneak attack and kill August.
But Ryan changed his mind and was shocked again: Huh... Didn't I hear that the eldest daughter of the Lopez family, Fia, and the young master Wens were having an affair, and there was a trend of marriage?
Isn't this murdering your fiancé?
I don’t know why they did this, but they did it!
Tsk tsk... The aristocratic circle is so chaotic. I can’t afford to offend them. I can’t afford to offend them.
…
The guy who planned this came prepared, and it was obvious that he wanted to put Ryan in the "jail".
By then, it won't be up to him.
As for the purpose... of course it's not just this one, it ultimately targets old man Tust.
The great wizard threw out the evidence and asked again, "Do you have anything else to say? If not, please cooperate with us and go to the Public Security Bureau."
As they said that, the law enforcement team was about to come up and arrest the person.
"etc."
When Ryan heard the "evidence", he did not argue at all. Instead, he asked with a strange look on his face: "Are you sure that the man must have died from the [Cannon Fist]?"
Hearing the doubt, the bald man felt that his dignity was insulted, and said unhappily: "This test result is not my own conclusion, but it was determined together with the trace experts of the 'Law Enforcement Group'. It is definitely not wrong!"
The great wizard also said at the right time: "These evidences are enough for us to invite you to the Public Security Bureau for some interrogation. If you are innocent, our [Torturer] will naturally clear your name."
"oh?"
Ryan laughed when he heard this.
If Master Kavo was really here, he would really dare to do "mental torture".
After all, I didn't kill anyone. I tortured him, but in the end I still didn't kill him.
But these guys are obviously going to be sent to "black prison", and once you go there, you will definitely not be able to get out.
What's more, the method of "mental torture" is very mysterious, and it is indeed no problem for absolutely fair torture.
But if it is taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives, it will be a big problem.
To put it bluntly, it is a form of mental hypnosis that can not only ask the "truth", but also tamper with memory!
If you are given some "extra memories" during hypnosis, you may wake up believing that you are a murderer.
The "evidence" is already set in stone. In this situation, unless we arrest them by force, we have no choice but to follow the law enforcement officers.
Seeing that Ryan had no intention of quibbling, the great magician of the "Law Enforcement Group" spoke again: "Now we have explained everything to you according to the law enforcement procedures. So, please cooperate with us... and we hope you will not do anything irrational."
The words were full of threats. If you dare to resist, you will be shot on the spot.
Ryan squinted his eyes and smiled, then said calmly, "Wait, I still have a little question..."
