Chapter 143: The Necrophil (2)
Yu Chusheng and Qian Yuanmo had dinner, and they were going to secretly find out who the official master of Mozhou was. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
If he is a good official, they can openly raise it and help the yamen investigate the case, but if his reputation is not good, they will have to investigate it secretly.
After all, Emperor Xuanwen didn't know that Qian Yuanmo went to Zizhou this time, and the two of them naturally couldn't reveal their identities until they had to do so.
How the officials of one side are are depends mainly on the people.
Yu Chusheng and Qian Yuanmo went to the street, but they didn't expect that because of the loss of bodies in the past few days, the government actually issued a notice.
A group of people were around.
Yu Chusheng and Qian Yuanmo also came up to take a look, and the content was probably that a reward was offered for catching the person who stole the corpse, and there was also a reward for those who provided clues.
There should have never been such a strange thing in Mozhou, and many of the people who read the notice were whispering.
Panic.
Yu Chusheng just said to Qian Yuanmo: "Just find someone to inquire." Then I heard a warm male voice next to me.
"Amitabha, evil!"
Yu Chusheng and Qian Yuanmo looked at the person who was talking together, and found that it was a monk, and the long scar on his face made people notice him at a glance. But he did not wear monk's robes, but wore coarse cloth clothes like everyone else.
He closed his eyes lightly, as if he had read a scripture, before he looked at the notice again, with pity in his eyes.
Someone teased: "I said to eliminate delusion, you are already vulgar, so don't pretend here." ”
Someone in the crowd chimed in: "yes, yes." ”
The man who was called delusional was about thirty years old, bald, straight, and not handsome, but not bad, but the scar on his face, which stretched from the corner of his mouth to the peak of his eyebrows, looked a little hideous.
In the face of everyone's ridicule, he still kept his face calm, and the pity in his eyes only increased: "The heart of compassion is not only for monks, even if it is already vulgar, my heart is still towards the Buddha." ”
He lowered his eyes, and instead of looking at the people who had just spoken, he looked at the ground, and continued: "Isn't it wicked that people have gone west, and they should be allowed to live in another place in peace, but those who steal corpses do not let their corpses live in peace?" ”
After he finished speaking, he folded his hands and lowered his head slightly, and Yu Chusheng's eyes stayed on him because of curiosity.
Yu Chusheng looked at him, and was about to say something when he heard a "wow".
It's the sound of a child crying.
Immediately afterwards, the child's frightened voice sounded: "Mother, that person looks so terrible, let's go quickly!" ”
Following the sound, Yu Chusheng looked at the source of the sound, a little boy of four or five years old, pulling a woman's arm.
And all the people looked at it, including the dispelling of delusion.
The woman looked apologetic on her face, and said to the delusion: "The child is not sensible, I'm sorry." ”
Qian Yuanmo whispered to Yu Chusheng: "This monk is quite pitiful, and he is a little out of place with everyone. ”
Indeed, probably because of the scars on his face, everyone laughed at him, and the children were afraid of him.
Xiao Yu bowed heavily to the woman, and his face was also apologetic, and said, "It's me who should apologize, I'm scared of the child, I'll leave immediately." ”
When the words fell, he glanced at the child, and Yu Chusheng actually saw that there was more softness in his eyes.
Probably really a compassionate person, only such a person can have such a bearing.
Seeing the delusion squeezing out of the crowd, Yu Chusheng retracted his gaze.
If only all lonely people could be saved.
Yu Chusheng and Qian Yuanmo casually found two people to inquire about the situation.
Mozhou has always been stable and safe, and even thefts rarely occur, let alone homicides.
Therefore, it was the first time that the people of the Yamen had encountered such a difficult case.
This also shows from the side that the official master of Mozhou is well managed, and in the words of the people: "We, Lord Li, love the people like sons, and we people live in peace, who has nothing to steal?" ”
Therefore, Yu Chusheng and Qian Yuanmo went to the government office in Mozhou.
There was a man playing the drums.
Not long after, a few officials ran out and persuaded the man: "You go back first, we have tried our best to find out who stole your lady's body." ”
It seems to be the husband of the woman whose body was stolen today.
The man's face was full of eagerness, and his voice was a little hoarse: "I am going to be buried today, but the body is lost, my wife and her death can't be buried in peace, I hope you will do things quickly." ”
Yu Chusheng understands him very well.
Anyone who has such a thing in their family can't be calm.
Those officials persuaded for a long time before they finally persuaded the man to leave, and in a blink of an eye, they saw Yu Chusheng and Qian Yuanmo, so they greeted him and asked, "What are you two going to do?" ”
Qian Yuanmo took out the token of his Qian Mansion, and frightened those officials and hurriedly said: "It turned out to be someone from the General's Mansion, I will take you to meet our lords." ”
Someone suddenly came to the Kyoto General's Mansion, can they not be frightened?
Yu Chusheng and Qian Yuanmo successfully met Master Li, and also successfully contacted Wang Zhutou, who was investigating this case in the past few days.
Wang Zhutou told the two people in detail about the two corpses lost in the autopsy hall, which was almost the same as what they had heard at the inn.
The prisoner was in the coroner's hall and left no traces.
Speaking of the corpse that was lost today, Wang Zhutou had a headache, took out a string of beads, and said, "The prisoner did not leave any clues at the scene, only this." ”
Yu Chusheng took it and looked at it, it was a string of beads that were not exquisitely made, black, I don't know what kind of wood it was, it should have been a long time, and the black on it had been worn off a little.
Qian Yuanmo said: "It's a bit like a Buddha bead." ”
Yu Chusheng glanced at it again, it was indeed a bit similar, but the general Buddha beads, at the moment in the middle, would be engraved with the word "Buddha", but there was no one on this string of beads.
Without waiting for Yu Chusheng to ask, Qian Yuanmo asked: "Where did this string of beads be found at the scene?" ”
Wang Zhutou said: "It was in the coffin, and it should have fallen accidentally when the person who stole the body was moving the body." ”
Yu Chusheng nodded, and asked again: "The scene should be very neat, right?" ”
Wang Zhutou said: "Yes, if they hadn't lifted the coffin, they wouldn't have found it at all, and the body was stolen." ”
That is, when they lifted the coffin and prepared to be buried, they found that the weight of the coffin was wrong, only to learn that the body had been stolen.
Then in the coffin, the beads were found.
The murderer was either a careful person or a very religious person.
Yu Chusheng thought about it for a while and said, "I think we should go to the scene again and learn more about the situation with the family of the corpse by the way." ”
