Chapter 4: Antique Shops (4)

After wiping the hand with licorice water, it seems to wash away the fog of concealment, revealing the wound that has been deliberately concealed.

Not only the palms of the hands, but even the arms show signs that symbolize the impact of the impact.

"Liu Peizhen fought with people before she died." Mingyue put down her hand and looked at the broken nails again, one of her left hands was broken, two of her right hands were broken, and there were faintly visible blood skins in the rest of the intact nails, which showed that she had fought to the death at that time, "She was first smashed with a blunt object, and then she was suffocated to death." ”

Bai Shui asked, "How can you be sure?" ”

Su Yunkai explained, "If you have been suffocated to death at that time, there is no need to make up for a fatal wound on your head, such a big movement, and it is easy to be exposed." ”

Bai Shui was stunned, and after thinking about it, he was puzzled, "Judging from her injuries, she should have had a fierce fight with people, but why did Wu Chip say that he didn't hear it when he was in the same courtyard?" ”

The problem really caught the point, and her sentence could push Wu Chip to the position of the murderer. Lord Qin, who had sharp ears, heard it even if he was outside the fugue and disgusted with it, and covered his mouth and nose and said loudly, "So he must be a murderer, what else is there to test, let's leave quickly." ”

Su Yunkai listened to his urging, his face immediately sank, and he tilted his head and said coldly, "That's how Lord Zhixian judged the case?" Just because he said he didn't hear the movement in the front hall can he assert that he is the murderer? What's the difference between this and taking human life in a careless way?! ”

"You, how dare you scold this official!" Lord Qin rolled his eyes, if it weren't for this Diao Min standing next to the corpse, and the official was far away from the autopsy room, he would have driven him away, Diao Min, really Diao Min!

Mingyue quickly raised her eyes to look at him, and whispered, "You are so powerful, you dare to scold Lord Qin." ”

Bai Shui "shh Mingyue coughed lightly twice, retracted her thoughts and continued the autopsy. This was interrupted by Lord Qin, and she remembered it, turned around and said, "Lord Qin, that Wu Chip is not a murderer. ”

One or two Diao Min ran out and committed the following crimes, offending his official authority, and Lord Qin was angry, "Why do you say that he is not a murderer?" ”

"There are many yellow mud footprints in the shop, indicating that the murderer came from outside, if it was Wu Chou's doing, there should not be so many dirty footprints on the ground. Besides, most of the things in the antique shop are gone, if Wu Chip is the murderer, he only needs to take away some signs of robbery and killing, and if he takes so much, he has to find a place to hide. ”

These words were told to her by Su Yunkai just now, but he didn't expect her to remember it very clearly, it seems that she is indeed concerned about this case, not for a temporary feast.

Lord Qin asked, "Then you say, why did Wu Chip say that he didn't hear Liu Peizhen fighting with others?" It's so messy in the shop, even if it's raining heavily, you should hear it, isn't he a pig? ”

Su Yunkai interjected lightly, "Of course he is not a pig, but he is still a man at heart." ”

Even the master found it funny, "Isn't he a man on the surface?" ”

"Probably not. It's not that he didn't hear the movements, he just thought they were the kind of movements he didn't want to hear, so he didn't come out. ”

Bai Shui and Mingyue asked in unison, "What do you mean?" ”

Lord Qin and Master Qin suddenly had an epiphany at this time, "So that's the case!" ”

Su Yunkai smiled faintly, "Master Qin and Master Qin can be regarded as having figured it out. ”

Mingyue hurriedly said, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Su Yunkai explained, "Liu Peizhen is amorous by nature, and according to the words of her neighbors, she often brings men home**. But there was Wu Chip in the house, and it was impossible for her to bring people to him, so she had an affair with the man in the shop. Therefore, Wu Chip must have thought that the movement in the shop last night was caused by Liu Peizhen's fornication with the man. In addition, the rain was too loud to be heard clearly, so it was reasonable that he did not go over to take a look. ”

Master added, "This can also explain why Wu Chip's redress is vague, and sometimes a man's face is bigger than his life." Oh, although it is well known that his wife cuckolded him, it can be said from his own mouth, but it is completely different. ”

The men present already understood, but Mingyue didn't quite understand it, and wanted to ask carefully, Su Yunkai said, "It's just that if the adults decide that he is the murderer and want to be convicted, he will also express his last concerns in exchange for his own life." ”

These are just speculations, but there is reason and evidence, Lord Qin is also shaken, if he will interrogate Xiucai again and pretend to convict him, if he says what Fang Cai deduced from this scholar, then it means that what this scholar said is right.

Who is this scholar, he said that he was Mingyue's helper, but he hadn't seen this person by Mingyue's side.

Mingyue had already experienced the place where Liu Peizhen could be seen with the naked eye, so she undressed her carefully.

The clothes gradually faded, Su Yunkai's face was even more solemn, and he had no distractions, finding out the real cause of her death was the greatest respect for the deceased. But the premise of this respect is that there is no blasphemy.

……

When I came out of the morgue, it was already after noon. Lord Qin and Master Qin had already gone outside, and the official had broken a handful of wicker sticks out of nowhere, and a pile of smoke was burned outside, and Mingyue was very disgusted to see it. She was about to approach to report the autopsy, but she was stopped by Lord Qin when she was still three zhang away, "You just stand there, don't get close!" I went back and took a shower and came back. ”

Mingyue finally knew why her grandfather had been unhappy all day since Lord Qin took office, and finally resigned from her position, she really wanted to throw the pen and paper in his face now, what is more important than human life! Wasting half a moment could allow the murderer to escape, how could he be so leisurely.

She was angry in her heart, and someone had already walked by, and by the way, she took away the autopsy grid in her hand. She was stunned, the figure passing by her was tall, and her back was as handsome as a pine, and she walked directly towards Lord Qin.

Lord Qin also saw the scholar who came over, and he didn't stop after drinking, so he was so angry that he wanted to jump up, and pushed the master out to block it.

Su Yunkai glanced at him, full of disdain and indifference, "My lord, let's take a look at this autopsy as soon as possible, and go up to the hall to interrogate Wu Chip and Qi Zuo." ”

Lord Qin came back to his senses, "Foolish? Why do you need to interrogate the work? ”

"Liu's corpse had traces of a fight, but the scars were erased, and according to Bai Zhutou, after Wu Chip reported the case, only the one who came into contact with the corpse was Zuo. So this matter was either done by Wu Chou, or it was a fake. It's just that Liu's body has many suspicious points, but she didn't sing the report at all, insisting that she died from a blunt blow, and the suspicion of fake work is even greater. ”

Lord Qin wanted to say that he would be tried again tomorrow, but the young man's eyes were scorching, his momentum was compelling, and he felt oppressed from a distance, so he could only say, "Then let's try it." ”

As soon as the atmosphere of the public court rested, and the hall was promoted again, those who had good deeds immediately smelled an unusual smell, so there were more people who came to watch. The yamen was crowded with people, and the yamen let more than a dozen people enter the second gate to listen, and the rest of the people were blocked outside the door.

Wu Chip was tortured and frightened in prison, and his appearance was even more haggard, and he cried as soon as he was brought to court, "My lord, wronged, wronged, the grass people really didn't kill anyone." ”

"No noise." Lord Qin didn't interrogate Wu Chip first, but instead asked Na Zuo, who was also kneeling under the hall with an uneasy expression, "Li Zhizhang, you are a servant of our county, and you have always been rigorous in doing things, but this corpse re-examination is quite different from your initial examination, how do you explain it?" ”

Bai Shui took the list of corpses for re-examination and showed them to him. He looked at it tremblingly, and then knelt on the ground and said, "The little one didn't sleep well last night, and his eyes hurt, but he lost his eyes today." ”

Lord Qin sneered, "I see that your eyes are as bright as the scorching sun, why do you have an eye disease?" ”

He fell to the ground again, "But the little one really hurts his eyes." After that, he rubbed his eyes, looking really pitiful.

Lord Qin forgot what to ask for a while, and glanced at Mingyue, who pointed to his hand. Only then did he remember, "Then the official asked you, why did you smear the deceased's body with madder to remove her wounds?" ”

He opened his mouth, suddenly understood, and glared at Mingyue fiercely. Seeing this, Lord Qin felt that Su Yunkai's inference just now was good, and when he knocked on the shocking wood, he was confident enough, "Bastard, this official is asking you!" ”

Only then did he retract his resentful eyes, "Adults are clear, not villains." ”

"After Wu Chip reported the case, you were the only one who came into contact with the corpse."

"That could also be Wu Chou's doing."

Wu Chip was detained again with a large basin of dirty water, and said angrily, "I was so frightened that I almost crawled out to report to the official, how can I still have the strength to do that kind of thing, don't talk about it." You, you ......"

He said coldly, "What am I?" ”

Wu Chip was agitated by his disdainful eyes, and squeezed his throat and said hatefully, "Don't think I don't know that you have a leg with Liu Peizhen!" ”

The hall was in an uproar, and even Lord Qin was shocked, sensing the signs, "Li Zhizhang!" ”

His face changed drastically, he didn't expect Wu Chip to find out about this matter at all, and he didn't even know that he actually knew about it. I panicked for a while, and I didn't say a word to refute it, but I was shocked by the sudden Lord Qin, and I was so frightened that I knelt and trembled.

"The case is getting complicated." Mingyue muttered, "Do you say that it is possible that the pretendence is a murderer?" ”

Su Yunkai shook his head, "Maybe not." ”

"Perhaps?"

"She is short, not as tall as Liu, and it is impossible to hit her head with an inkstone during a dispute, unless Liu falls to the ground in the fight."

The wound is in the Baihui acupoint, just in the middle of the top of the head, if you want to smash it into a pit, it must be higher than Liu Peizhen. But a person who has fallen to the ground cannot always sit up straight for people to smash, and the body should always be tilted. It is unlikely that a person after a fight will want to keep his sanity and find a good death hole, so it is more likely that he is not a murderer.

Wu Chip is not a murderer, and he is not a murderer, which means that the murderer is someone else.

Both of them thought - the case is getting complicated.
