While they were talking, several people had already arrived at the west courtyard.

The corpse was placed under the porch near the inverted room, surrounded by four or five guards, all with a sad look on their faces, after all, they were partners who got along day and night, and suddenly they went like this, and their hearts were inevitably sad and angry.

Hearing the footsteps of several people, several guards saw that it was Chu Yunzhou coming, and they hurriedly bowed down and gave a salute and let them aside.

Chu Ning stepped forward without any scruples, and the corpse was displayed in front of Chu Ning's eyes, a young man who looked less than twenty years old, with a pale face, obviously with a lot of blood loss, and his two arms were clasped in front of his chest, as if he was trying to hold something.

The clothes on his body were no longer visible in their original color, and they were soaked in blood.

Chu Ning took out a handkerchief and looked at the eyelids of the corpse, the cornea was not cloudy, but it was not very clear.

Holding the corpse's arm again, he lifted it, feeling the degree of corpse stiffness, including the large joints, which was already very stiff at this time, according to this degree and the condition of the cornea, it is expected that he will be dead for about ten hours, but he still needs to look at the situation of the corpse spots, which is used as a reference for verification.

With every movement on Chu Ning's side, the corners of Le Xiao's mouth twitched, and he regretted a little that he let the young lady come over, because he saw that Chu Yunzhou's face was getting darker and darker. Just thinking about it, Chu Ning over there beckoned to him: "Le Xiao, come and do me a favor!"

Le Xiao secretly glanced at Chu Yunzhou, and saw that the latter did not react, so he had to go up hard.

"Help me break his arm, the wound is here. Chu Ning commanded, the corpse stiffness at this time is the hardest, and it takes some effort to break it apart, since there is a helper next to it, there is no need to use it in vain!

It stands to reason that the original state of the corpse should be photographed and preserved, but how can there be such conditions here, you can't find someone to paint a portrait, it is estimated that when the painting is finished, this weather, the corpse will stink.

Le Xiao was a little hesitant, in their concept, if the corpse was in this state, it could not be moved, and when time passed, it would naturally return to its normal position (that is, the corpse stiffness was relieved), so although it was his own brother, there were still some taboos.

Chu Ning was observing the two hands of the deceased, the four fingers of one hand and the inner side of the thumbs of both hands had incisions, the wounds were slender, and the bones were deeply visible, which showed that they were very resistant injuries caused by sharp sharp weapons, as if there were some small abrasions, and it was difficult to judge for a while, but according to the posture of the corpse's arms, these incisions were caused by the deceased holding the sharp weapon that stabbed him, but there was no murder weapon, so why did he retain this posture? Chu Ning immediately raised his head and asked Le Xiao: "What was the deceased holding when he found it?"

Le Xiao didn't know, and hurriedly looked at the guard who found the deceased, and the guard hurriedly replied: "I found that Seventeen was next to a willow tree, and he was pulling a branch with both hands, as if he wanted to get up and ....." Speaking of this, his tone was a little choked.

That means that the murderer took away the murder weapon, but why did the deceased hold the willow branch? According to the severity of his injuries at the time, it was impossible to get up by himself, maybe it was a struggle before death, but he still held on to it, maybe he wanted to express something, but now it is unknown, Chu Ning put down this thought, and saw that Le Xiao was still stunned and did not move, and hurriedly urged: "Le Xiao?!"

Chu Yunzhou glanced at Le Xiao and said, "Go and help!" Le Xiao squatted down.

Chu Ning flattened his mouth in his heart, I still can't move this person! I still have to ask your son-in-law to speak!

Le Xiao had great strength and quickly parted the deceased's arms, and the deceased's chest was completely exposed.

There was only one tear in the clothes, which could be seen to be fatal with one blow, and with Chu Ning's turning, blood continued to pour out slowly.
