Who is the murderer in the "bamboo forest"
When I went to Chengdu last week, Xiaole bought two books, one is The Story of angela carter (which is very strong, so we should start with caution), and the other is The Smile of the Gods by Ryunosuke Akutagawa. On the weekend, Xiaole said to me with "The Smile of the Gods": "Dad, there are some books I have read before in the library. Among them is the famous short story In the Bamboo Forest, and the film Rashomon has been adapted since then. ? Tell a story

When I went to Chengdu last week, Xiaole bought two books, one is The Story of angela carter (which is very strong, so we should start with caution), and the other is The Smile of the Gods by Ryunosuke Akutagawa. On the weekend, Xiaole said to me with "The Smile of the Gods": "Dad, there are some books I have read before in the library. Among them is the famous short story In the Bamboo Forest, and the film Rashomon has been adapted since then. ? Story: A Japanese samurai was found dead in a bamboo forest. After the case was exposed, Kebiishi (the official name of ancient Japan, similar to police or prosecutor) summoned seven relevant personnel for questioning. This work shows the testimony of seven people in the form of confession. Testimonies of the woodcutter who first found the body, the passing monk, the policeman who handled the case, the arrested robber, the repented wife, the samurai undead who appeared through the mouth of the psychic, etc. , convincing, but contradictory, stick to one's own words. The whole truth lies in the bamboo forest. (from Wikipedia) "Dad, what do you think of the truth?" "Why don't we analyze it. 」 ? So after moving to a new house, we started drawing on the new whiteboard for the first time. Draw a picture of the relationship between people first. This is very simple: but apart from making us more aware of the relationship between people, it is not very helpful to everyone's contradictions and truth. Without the analytical characteristics of detectives, it is not enough to just browse books. Because it seems that there are many contradictions, the robber (Duoxiang Pill), the husband (Kanazawa) and the wife (Zhensha) all say that they killed their husbands, and the woodcutter mentioned that there should be no horses and other figures at the scene, and so on. ? So, how do we start to sort things out? Considering that everyone's time and place are different, it can be rescheduled according to the timeline. With the help of 5W 1H, we compiled a list: when (time), where (place), who (person), what (thing), how (tool, process) and why (reason). ? Fill in the form according to everyone's story, and then retell the story according to time:

? Old woman: Yesterday; Couples go home when they are narrow; The husband is a soldier, gentle in temperament, strong in wife, and has no affair. Walking monk: Yesterday at noon; On the way from Guanshan to Shanke; Look at two couples; There are brown horses and people (more than 20) with broadswords and bows and arrows. Duoxiang pill (robber): Yesterday afternoon; Go from Shankeda Road, to Xiaozhulin (the horse didn't go in), and then to the fir tree; The husband was tied, the wife was tricked into the grass and attacked by * * * *. Afterwards, the wife wanted only one of the two to live, and killed the man after a duel with her husband. When his wife disappeared, the robber threw away the killing knife and took the bow, arrow and horse. Female (wife): I didn't say the time; Confess in Kiyomizu Temple; After being attacked by * * *, the robber left and killed her husband with a knife. He tried to kill himself, but he couldn't. Ghost (borrowed by husband): tied to a tree; * * * Later, the robbers comforted his wife and asked her to elope. The wife agreed and let her kill her husband. The wife ran away, but the robber didn't catch up. Later, the robber cut some ropes for her husband. After breaking free from the rope, the husband committed suicide with his wife's knife. Catcher: Last night; At Litiankou Stone Bridge; The robber fell off his horse and was caught; The robber had a knife and a bow and arrow of the deceased before he died (17). He rode a brown horse and didn't see a woman. Woodcutter: This morning; The mountains are barren; Found the body; There are ropes at the scene, and the grass is scattered all over the floor. There can be no horses, and there are many knife wounds. ? Our question is: 1. Who killed her husband? Is it a robber? Wife? Or the husband himself? 2. The woodcutter mentioned that there could be no horses, while others said there were brown horses? 3. How many wounds did the deceased have? 4. The deceased was killed by a knife? Or did you kill him with a big knife? 5. To what extent is the scene chaotic, and how may it be caused? 6. Why would someone lie? ? Next, enter the key link, that is, the last why. This is what we need to analyze, that is, to judge the motivation of each narrator and whether he is telling the truth or not. ? Judging from the time and place after combing, there can be no horse at the scene mentioned by the woodcutter and there is no conflict with the brown horse mentioned by other characters, because the location is different, and the robbers also mentioned that the horse can't go after arriving at the small bamboo forest. This question is solved. ? Let's analyze who is less likely to lie. ? ? The monk told the story before the case happened, and everything he told could match, except the number of bows and arrows. We think it is basically true. ? The woodcutter was the discoverer of the corpse scene. If he has no motive, what he said should be true and credible, and it is very important that what he said can be verified on the spot. The question he said was "the deceased had multiple stab wounds", which is very critical and we think it needs careful confirmation by the coroner. (Of course, Xiaole still thinks that the ghost really died until the end of the story when the knife was pulled out, thinking that there was someone else. In this case, the woodcutter is still in doubt as the first person to find the body. However, I tend to understand that the original tells the process of death from the perspective of the soul, so I won't go into it. ) ? The old woman is the mother of the deceased's wife. At first glance, she just said that "the couple are going home", but she mentioned that "the husband is a warrior, gentle in temperament, and the wife is strong, and there is no affair", which is actually the key and the foothold of the rationality of the latter two behaviors. However, Xiaole's mention of the old woman may be exaggerated, and her preference is somewhat, which I think is quite reasonable. ? The catcher told the story of the robber being caught, which may be exaggerated, but it is basically true. Only the bows and arrows of the deceased (17) are mentioned, and the number is inconsistent with that of monks, and the use of bows and arrows is not mentioned in the narrative process. ? The three most important parties, the robber, the wife and the husband, differ greatly in other details except that the husband is tied and the wife is * * *. Pick the key point: according to the robber, her husband was kidnapped by surprise attack, and then he was killed in a duel. Then we judged that the scene should be messy and the murder weapon should be the robber's broadsword. ? According to his wife, the robber left after * * * without a duel. If you had killed your husband with a knife, the scene wouldn't be so messy. The murder weapon was a knife. ? According to her husband, the robber cut part of the rope and didn't fight. I later killed myself with my wife's knife, so the scene wouldn't be so messy. The murder weapon was a knife. ? Only the woodcutter mentioned the "chaos of grass leaves" at the scene, but it is difficult to judge the degree of chaos. In addition to a duel, * * * may also cause; "Knife wounds are many", not to mention broadsword or knife. However, we think these should be able to do more detailed field investigation and make further inferences. ? However, in the case that the author is unclear, we continue to analyze: First, the old lady mentioned that "the husband is a warrior, with a gentle temperament, and the wife is strong and has no affair", indicating that the wife may be "strong and chaste"; ? Second, the wife is repenting, and there is no third person except her and Buddha, so she is more likely to tell the truth. ? Third, the wife and husband say the same thing, including not fighting, killing with a knife, two to one. ? Since what the wife said is more likely to be true, why did the husband and the robber say that they killed themselves? Xiaole's explanation is that the husband loves his wife, thus liberating him; On the other hand, robbers can't escape punishment. Robbery, * * *, don't care about one more charge, they can also be heroes. ? Therefore, the wife is the real murderer in the bamboo forest. What did you say?/Sorry? ? There is only one truth, and only Akutagawa Ryunosuke can know it. But for us, suddenly found that compared with just now, there are too many details we haven't seen before. ?
