”Does anyone hate him?”

”Nor!”

Su Li bit his lower lip. Since the dead man's relationship was so good, why would anyone treat his corpse like that?

She thought of the neat stack of clothes and shoes. Could it be that her motive for killing was not hatred? Instead … Psychopathic?

If it was a mental illness, there would definitely be other victims before Shi Cheng.

But no!

Hei Qi swore with all his heart that there were no weird people in the army camp. Instead, it would take a lot of time and effort to become a psychopath, so there would definitely be some things that others would find strange.

Therefore, this was yet another contradiction!

Putting his thoughts away, Su Li returned to the main topic at hand, ”Then why are you heading towards the small hill at noon?”

”Originally, I wanted to go to the pond, but my legs were unable to support me for too far. Before I even reached the tree, I turned around and started walking back.”

”Have you seen anyone sitting by the locust tree?”

”It seems like Third Prince is sitting there. My eyes can't see too far, and I'm a little unsure if it's him.”

”What else have you seen?”

”No more.” Jin Zishan said softly, ”I wish that I could see something.”

Su Li sighed, ”My condolences!”

After Jin Zishan left the tent, he hurriedly walked in and gave the record book in his hands to Yun Che.

”I went to check the entry and exit records. When Shi Cheng was in the morning, he left the military camp and returned back to the military camp at noon.”

Su Li took the record book, and frowned.

If Shi Cheng had just returned at the time he arrived, then he must have went straight from the entrance to the small hill.

This way, the timeline would match.

What about his ID card? He needed to register his identity card before entering the military camp. Besides silver, there was nothing else in the neatly folded robes of the murderer.

Did the killer take his ID?

Mo Lianjin took the record book away from Su Li's hands and caressed her hair, ”The case will be investigated tomorrow, and it will end here and now.”

Su Li did not object. It was already night time, and the outside was dark. Even if she wanted to check all night, she would not be able to find anything.

Returning to the big tent, Lin Sanniang brought over food.

After placing the dishes, the Lin Sanniang's eyes turned slightly red. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, ”My prince, my wangfei, have you found out who caused Brother Shi's death?”

Su Li shook his head, ”Not yet, I need some time.”

”Brother Shi is a good man. If it wasn't for him, I would still be in the hands of that bully.” Lin Sanniang knelt down with a thump, as he looked at Su Li with blurry eyes. ”I beg Prince's Wife to definitely uncover the culprit and to give Brother Shi justice.”

Su Li got up and helped her up, ”I will, and you shouldn't be too sad.”

”Brother Shi is such a good person. Who is trying to harm him like this?”

”Are you usually close to Shi Cheng?” Su Li casually asked.

Lin Sanniang rubbed his eyes and nodded, ”I will often give him food, and he will also give me some small stuff. He saved my life, so in my heart, I have long treated him as my closest friend.”

Su Li still wanted to ask, but with a cold face, he indicated for Lin Sanniang to leave unhappily.

This woman, we agreed to stop here for today. Before dinner, she still wants to talk about matters related to the case.

Lin Sanniang bowed to the two of them, and then left.

Su Li looked up and glanced at Mo Lianjin, ”What are you doing in such a cold manner?”

”You need to sleep after eating. If she stays here, you'll keep asking. Do you have the heart to let me sleep alone?”
