Chapter 138: Counting the Stars
The color of the fresh meat suddenly reminded Yang Chun and Tang Yunzhao of the scene of dissection during the day.
Wang Quanren's corpse was already in a state of decomposition, especially the organs, which were as rotten as the dish in front of him.
Tang Yunzhao didn't hold back at first, but he didn't show anything unusual, but said calmly: "I don't eat, I don't have an appetite, you eat slowly." ”
Followed by Yang Chun, she forcibly ate a few bites of other dishes, but she still felt a little sick to her stomach when her eyes swept over that dish.
Reason told her that she could no longer sit at the dinner table, so she got up and politely said, "I'm full, you can use it slowly." ”
The rest of the people were very strange, Lord Zheng thought that he was not well entertained, so that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had no appetite, and he was sincerely scared for a long time, but Xuanyi comforted him that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not care about this.
Yang Chun can't sleep at night, and she can't get up in the morning on weekdays because of this reason, once something happens, she is prone to insomnia.
Although Wang Quanren's death was caused by hanging, no matter how you look at it, there are still many doubts, Yang Chun has an intuition that there must be some reason for his death, but he can't tell where it is.
Yang Chun couldn't help it, so he could only go to the yard for a walk.
The moonlight tonight is very good, and Lord Zheng's yard likes to light two ever-bright lanterns, so that it will not be dark and unclear.
Yang Chun put on his clothes, sat down in the pavilion in the courtyard, and looked up at the stars in the sky.
She was counting the stars when a man sat next to her.
"There are so many stars, can you count them clearly?" Tang Yunzhao also raised his head and looked at the endless starry sky and asked.
"You can relax when you count the stars, and you don't have to dwell on the results, even if I give a result, who do you ask to verify whether it's right?" Yang Chun crossed Erlang's legs and said indifferently.
Tang Yunzhao couldn't help but glance sideways at her.
He always felt that there were many different things in this woman, and the longer they got along, the more they could find out.
"Let's go to the scene of the crime tomorrow. Yang Chun suddenly proposed.
"You're quite interested in this case. ”
"I'm just curious, I want to verify when I encounter something I can't figure out, I don't want to go through the past so vaguely, aren't you?" Yang Chun suddenly turned his head and looked at Tang Yunzhao with a burning gaze.
Tang Yunzhao didn't know why, at that moment, his heart skipped a beat.
On the second day, the group came to Wang Quanren's house, and the study was the place where the crime occurred.
It's a pity that they came too late, Tang Yunzhao and Yang Chun looked around inside and out, looked at each other and shook their heads, "It's too clean, it's hard to see any clues." ”
Yang Chun pursed his lips, and kept rubbing his chin with his other hand, "Don't you think it's strange? Wang Quanren died such a sad thing, and the family still has to do funerals inside and out, it's already busy enough, how can anyone still have time to clean this study so clean." ”
She wiped a handful of dusty desktops, "Wang Quanren's recent pen and paper are all gone." ”
Tang Yunzhao twisted his eyebrows.
He had suspected that Wang Quanren's death was a cover-up for corruption.
His subordinates have gradually pointed the finger at Wang Quanren, and he is only about to kick the door, and he has now collected enough evidence in his hands to prove that Wang Quanren abused his power and embezzled public funds, but he simply did not dare to do so.
Tang Yunzhao has always suspected that there is a mastermind behind Wang Quanren, he is fully prepared, as long as Wang Quanren is caught, he will do everything possible to make Wang Quanren confess and confess the mastermind behind the scenes.
Unexpectedly, after thousands of calculations, I still don't know why the news leaked, and the person on the other side was one step faster than them and got rid of Wang Quanren first.
This assassination was done seamlessly.
Yang Chun walked around the room, refusing to leave, "You say, if you want to arrange a room like a secret room, what will you do?"
"The exits here are nothing more than doors and windows, and if you want to create the illusion of a secret room, you have to start here. ”
Tang Yunzhao walked to the door to take a closer look, but did not find anything unusual.
How did this person set up the illusion of a secret room?
"Come and see, what is this?" Yang Chun beckoned.
Tang Yunzhao took a closer look and found that although the window was closed, there was a little bit of wear and tear on the window frame, and he couldn't find it at all if he didn't look carefully.
"The mark here is small, but it is very deep, as if it has been strangled by something. Yang Chun touched the mark and said.
Yang Chun pushed open the window and found that the mark had spread all the way to the outside.
Tang Yunzhao jumped out of the window and found a small severed silk thread in the flower bed outside.
"Could it be this thing?"
Yang Chun compared the silk thread with the mark on the window frame, "It's very similar." ”
"The window here is actually very simple, the bolt only needs to be snapped off, and if you use this silk thread, you can do it from the outside. Tang Yunzhao looked at the bolt of the window and analyzed.
Indeed, the assumption of the secret room was overturned, which means that Wang Quanren's death was not necessarily a suicide. ”
"But based on this alone, we don't have any evidence to prove that Wang Quanren was killed by him. ”
"I want to see his body again. Yang Chun proposed.
Because Wang Quanren's case has not ended, there is no telling when the corpse will be used, so the corpse was not buried, but put in Yizhuang and kept with ice.
While checking the body again, Yang Chun also called the servants.
She carefully observed the strangulation marks on Wang Quanren's neck, and suddenly asked a question: "Mr. Zhang, if a person hangs himself, no matter how determined he is when he dies, will he definitely struggle?"
"It's nature, it's a person's instinct to survive, and the instinctive physical reaction when hanging oneself is to get more air. ”
"If that's really the case, will there be friction on the wound on the corpse, but you see, Wang Quanren's wound is so clean and tidy, as if there is no trace of struggle. Yang Chun asked.
It dawned on him and hurriedly went to check Wang Quanren's fingers, his nails were neat, and there was no sign of wear on his fingers.
"There was no sign of a struggle. ”
"What does this mean?" Yang Chun deliberately threw the question to Tang Yunzhao.
It shows that Wang Quanren was hung up without realizing it. Tang Yunzhao naturally said the answer.
Indeed, if Wang Quanren did not die of poisoning or some other reason, the most likely thing is that someone drugged him in advance, stunned him, and then hanged him.
"Go back to the palace. Tang Yunzhao immediately ordered.
Mrs. Wang was still wearing linen and filial piety, in the grief of crying three times a day, and she didn't have a good face when she saw Yang Chun and them.
Lord Zheng had no temper with the previous Lady of Thorn History, after all, she was the wife of her old boss, so she could only coax, "This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today, you should kneel down and salute him." ”
