Chapter 251 Obvious Contradiction (Update )
Yang Shaoyin shook his head and said, "This is what I can't figure out. Moreover, I always feel that the murderer poisoned them so heavily, and his original intention was not necessarily to cruelly kill them..."

Xue Wenbai looked puzzled.

Using such a strong poison on an eight or nine-year-old child that their intestines come out when they die, isn't this method of killing cruel enough?

Su Liuyue glanced at Yang Shaoyin and nodded in agreement, "Yang Shaoyin is right. In fact, considering what Yang Shaoyin just said, I think the murderer did this to reduce the victim's pain.

Giving them a large amount of poison would certainly make their bodies unable to bear it, but the pain would last for a short time, and it would be more comfortable for the murderer to kill them than giving them a small amount of poison and letting them die slowly and painfully.

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Does this mean that a short pain is worse than a long one? So, the murderer is kind in killing people in this way?
Feng Dali couldn't help but frown and said, "If that's the case, why did the murderer have to kill those children? Or is it really like the rumors outside, the murderer's target is not these children, but the families behind them? Was this done by someone who hates the nobles of the New Dynasty?"

When Su Liuyue heard Concubine Feng and others yesterday say that the victims in this case were all children from the powerful families of the New Dynasty, she knew that such rumors would definitely spread among the people and in the court.

Not to mention, ever since the murder of Miss Zhong, the relationship between the dignitaries of the new and old dynasties has become increasingly worse. The emergence of this case will only add fuel to the already burning fire.

At this time, Xue Chengyi, who had been silent, said in a low voice: "If this is true, the atmosphere in the court will only become more tense. Since the bodies of those children were found, the families of those children have pointed their spearheads at the dignitaries of the old dynasty. During the morning court yesterday, General Sun of the Sun family directly pointed out that it was the dignitaries of the old dynasty who kidnapped and killed their children. General Shen just refuted him with a few words, and he was so anxious that he fought with General Shen directly during the morning court.

After the palace guards separated them, General Sun also shouted that the people who did this were the remnants of the previous dynasty hiding among the dignitaries of the old dynasty. He did this to first destroy the ambitions of the dignitaries of the new dynasty, and then look for an opportunity to restore the previous dynasty...

This really touched the sore spot of the old dynasty dignitaries, and several of them said they would bang their heads against the pillars to prove their innocence. "

Su Liuyue looked surprised.

Although she knew that the impact of this incident would not be small, she did not expect it to be so serious.

This incident caused a big stir and had been rumored among the people for a long time, so other people also knew something about it, but they just didn't know it in such detail.

Xue Wenjin was silent for a moment, and said: "Although at present, the person who did this is indeed likely to be someone who hates the powerful in the new dynasty, but the transition from the old dynasty to the new dynasty has been less than a year, and those who hate the powerful in the new dynasty are not just in the court.

Moreover, there is one thing I really can't understand. If that person hated the powerful people of the new dynasty, why did he go through so much trouble to kidnap their children, take good care of them for a few days, and then kill them? Isn't this way of revenge more complicated and troublesome than directly looking for the powerful people of the new dynasty?

After all, every family attaches great importance to their offspring, and they take great care of their underage offspring."

What Xue Wenjin said makes sense.

If the murderer's real purpose was to strike down the powerful people of the new dynasty, there was no need to target the child.

It would be better to focus on the adults in each family, so that it would be easier to find opportunities to kill them alone. Su Liuyue glanced at Xue Wenjin and said, "There is another biggest doubt in this case."

The router immediately asked, "What is it?"

"Although you didn't explicitly say how those children disappeared, your words hinted that they ran away without telling the people around them."

Su Liuyue asked: "How could the murderer predict when these children would leave home, and kidnap them just when they left?"

Lu Lu was slightly stunned and said, "Although they are young, they are not three or four years old anymore. It is very common for children of this age to sneak out because they want to play..."

Su Liuyue looked at him, raised her eyebrows and said, "Even if there are many children who sneak out of Xinjing every day, there are not many dignitaries in Xinjing, and there are even fewer of them. It is considered a lot if two or three children from the dignitaries in Xinjing sneak out in one day.

It's impossible for the murderer to hang around the homes of the new dynasty's dignitaries every day and wait for his prey, right? "

Xue Wenbo couldn't help but ask, "But isn't it our inference that the murderer targeted the children of the powerful families of the New Dynasty? Maybe he didn't specifically target the children of any family, but just arrested them randomly, and the few he caught happened to be from the powerful families of the New Dynasty?

Not to mention, the You family to which the first missing child belonged was only slightly related to the You family to which Prime Minister You belonged, and in reality they were still the dignitaries of the old dynasty. "

It's rare that my cousin is reliable.

Su Liuyue couldn't help but glance at him and said, "My eldest cousin is right. However, although we cannot be sure that the murderer is targeting the dignitaries of the New Dynasty, it is certain that he specifically targeted the children of powerful families..."

Yang Shaoyin couldn't help but ask: "Why can we be sure of this?"

"Two reasons. First, it is much harder to kidnap children from powerful families than from ordinary families, and there are more troubles afterwards. If the murderer just wants to kidnap and kill the child, their identity and background are not important. There is no need to pick such a difficult family to target."

Su Liuyue said, and then raised another finger and said, "Second, it's because of what Yang Shaoyin just mentioned, the new clothes that the murdered children were wearing when they were found."

Yang Shaoyin was startled, and then he heard Su Liuyue continue: "Although Yang Shaoyin did not say clearly what material those new clothes were made of, if the material of those new clothes was too poor and did not match the identities of the dead children, Yang Shaoyin should have specifically stated it, because this is a very obvious contradiction, just like Yang Shaoyin just said that those new clothes did not match the figures of those children.

Yang Shaoyin did not mention the materials specifically because deep down you did not feel that there was anything inharmonious about the clothes matching those children. In other words, the materials of those new clothes were most likely of the best quality.

The murderer specially prepared these clothes made of top-quality materials for them, which shows that he was targeting these children from well-off families from the beginning.

By the way, I want to confirm that the clothes those children are wearing are of similar size?"
