This is a total unexpected gain!

Chen Mu was excited.

Originally, there was no clue about the Ju Chunlou case. Now that this painting is about torn apart in the dense spider web.

The prospects suddenly became clear!

There are not so many coincidences in the world.

Since the eleven women's posture when they died was the same as the women in the painting, it is enough to show that the murderer's purpose is very strong.

Or for revenge!

Or it is because of the woman in the painting that she deliberately vents her emotions.

Referring to many murder cases throughout the ages, many perverted murderers will create exactly the same murder scene as their own logo.

If you explore the hearts of these murderers, you will come to a conclusion.

Most of the perverted murderers were stimulated by childhood abuse or emotional contusions and began to retaliate against others.

However, there was only one tragedy in Ju Chunlou, and no other tragedy occurred again.

And he killed eleven women at once.

From this we can boldly infer that the murderer is for revenge!

"Who is the woman in this painting? What is her relationship with the snake demon?"

Chen Mu fell into thinking.

Since this painting fell from the snake demon, it means that eleven women were indeed killed by the snake demon.

The purpose of killing is to the woman in the painting.

Judging from the situation depicted in the portrait and the delicate emotions revealed, the relationship between the painter and the woman is not simple.

Is it a lover?

Chen Mu vaguely felt that he had grasped an extremely important clue.

If you can follow this clue to investigate, you will definitely be able to solve the Ju Chunlou tragedy or even catch the snake demon!

...

When he returned home, Chen Mu couldn't wait to come to the study to read the transcripts of the women in Ju Chunlou.

With more than 200 pages of transcripts, it is very laborious to filter out important information.

Yesterday, Chen Mu only analyzed about thirty pages.

Moreover, most of the information screened out is very scattered and is not very helpful to the case.

But now it's different.

With the clear direction of "revenge", we only need to find out who these eleven women have conflicts with on weekdays.

The appearance and inner situation of brothels are completely different from each other.

To outsiders, brothels sing and dancing every day, with a lively scene, and the sisters have a harmonious relationship and are very close.

But the internal competition is far beyond the imagination of outsiders.

I remember Chen Mu once saw a document that recorded the history and deeds of brothels. In order to suppress their competitors, some women disfigured their companions, poisoned them, and acupunctured them...

It's creepy after watching it.

I have a deeper understanding of the natural jealousy of some women.

It is normal to form cliques.

Take Xue Caiqing from Ju Chunlou as an example.

This woman is indifferent, has no desires or disputes, and even deliberately avoids the title of "Courtessy" and does not participate.

However, even so, there were still many women in Ju Chun Tower who excluded her and deliberately isolated her.

Even in these records, many women slander Xue Caiqing.

He said that she had slept with many men, said that she was fake aloof, and said that she was secretly kept by the county magistrate, said that she had a scent and willow disease, etc.

It can be seen that even if you are humble and avoid them in such an environment, you will be jealous.

What are sisters?

Everyone is doing business with both legs, why is it that you are the only one who pretends to be noble?

Time passes by rapidly.

As the clues deepened, Chen Mu was completely selfless.

During this period, my sister-in-law called me several times during dinner, but she was pushed by Chen Mu. The little girl was so angry that she scolded her for a few words and didn't bother her again.

Bai Xianyu has also been here twice.

The first time she just sat quietly by the table for a while, without making any noise to bother her husband.

Looking at my husband's handsome side face, it seemed as if I was admiring a painting.

There was always a gentle smile on the corner of her lips.

Until she accidentally coughed, she quickly pressed the back of her hand against her lips, endured the cough, and quietly left the study.

Chen Mu was completely unaware of her departure.

The second time was when it was getting dark, she quietly entered the study and put on a robe for her husband who was immersed in the case analysis.

Before leaving, he lit the oil lamp in advance and put a plate of snacks next to him.

I have never come into the study since then.

It was not until late at night that Chen Mu had analyzed all the two hundred pages of transcripts.

The table was completely submerged with dense paper with words written on it, and the oil lamp that Bai Xianyu lit in advance was about to run out of the last ray of light, swaying and supporting it.

"So tiring!"

Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes swelling and feeling uncomfortable.

He got up and moved his almost stiff waist, grabbed the snacks on the table and ate them, but his eyes were fixed on some of the names selected in the recording book.

There are thirty-four names in total!

The owners of these names have more or less conflicts with the eleven dead brothel women.

For example, today I accidentally broke your piano, or took it badly and suspected that it was someone else's medicine, or I accidentally blew my waist when I was on the bed with too much force, or I stole someone's sweetheart...

In short, the various contradictions create resentment in daily life.

Although there are many of these thirty-four "enemys", you should know that these are only roughly selected from other people's records.

Outsiders can't tell who they hate and jealous of.

But there is a name that was noted by Chen Mu's key circle.

Liu Xiangjun!

In Chen Mu's memory, there is information about this woman.

She used to be the most popular leader in Ju Chunlou, and won the title of courtesan for four consecutive times. She was a little outgoing and straightforward, and offended many sisters.

Among them is Yuan Xinger, the premiere of the flower courtesan—

That is the "blowing master".

However, when he was out for a party in mid-November last year, Liu Xiangjun accidentally fell into the lake and drowned!

At that time, Chen Mu had not traveled through time, and was just a small constable.

The case was ultimately classified as an accidental fall into the water.

Looking back now, this case is somewhat abnormal.

"I am a courtesan, and I am jealous of many sisters. I died more than seven months ago..."

Chen Mu picked up the faceless painting and looked at the charming and moving figure of the woman in the painting. His eyes flashed with splendor and murmured:

"Is the woman in the painting you? Liu Xiangjun."

...

The lonely moon hangs high in the night sky, and the hazy night color envelopes a quiet house.

suddenly--

A graceful figure appeared on the low wall, dancing lightly with black hair.

It was Xiaoying who made an appointment with Chen Mu during the day.

At this time, she was wearing night clothes, melting into the night, with only her bright eyes shining brightly.

Bang!

She climbed over the wall of the house like a clever night owl, and gently tapped her toes on the pond surface, and flew gently on the rockery.

Except for the ripples, the pool surface was not heard at all.

Light as a piece of paper.

"As a little captain, the yard where he lives is quite generous and he is very greedy on weekdays."

Xiaoying slandered a few words in her heart and took out a whistle.

"Chirrh—"

The whistle made a sound of birds singing, echoing in the night sky.

Just as she was about to blow the second time, she felt a chill coming from the back of her neck, not like the wind, but more like... murderous intent!

Swish!
Chapter completed!
