Chapter 103: Preliminary Portrait of the Murderer
"Teenager?" Yuan Xiu was puzzled, "Xu said that the person was taller than her, how could he be a teenager?" ”
"It's just that I didn't expect that the murderer behind the scenes would be so young at the time, at most a teenager." Twilight Road.
If the person who saved Xu's that night was just a subordinate, he would be dealt with after he went back, and the real murderer behind the scenes should have killed Xu's or would still kill him, and if he didn't kill him, it only means that he was the real murderer behind the scenes who showed up that night to save Xu's.
Du Qing said: "Naturally, apart from the real murderer behind the scenes, is there anyone else who can spare the mother and son of the Xu family from dying?" ”、
Yuan Xiu asked in a deep voice: "Is the person who saved the Xu family that night really the real murderer behind the scenes?" ”
Of course not!
"That night, the man must have killed the bandit on his own business! If he is just a killer, then he will not dare to disobey the orders of his master and dispose of people privately. If he was confused for a while and saved the Xu family, do you think the Xu family and son survived that night and could survive to Xuyang County? Think about the fate of the other family, the real murderer behind the scenes was just worried about what they heard in those days, and they killed people on the way to move their family, and the Xu family saw the bandits of the Green Python Gang killed and the body was carried into the carriage that night, do you think the real murderer behind the scenes may save her life? ”
When Yuan Xiu heard this, his brows furrowed, and then he realized something strange.
Twilight Qing was focused on the psychological portrait of the murderer, not caring about Yuan Xiu's expression, and continued to analyze the case, "What you said makes sense, that bandit knows too much, and he will definitely be wiped out, but I don't think he will be killed in the Xu family." He is a member of the Green Python Gang, the Green Python Gang is a bandit, and he needs to be in Shengjing City to exterminate a bandit afterwards? If you kill someone in Shengjing City and have to bury it, that person is very large, don't you think this move is very troublesome? If you want to kill that person, after he returns to the gang, you can kill him in the gang, silently, the body will be buried or abandoned, no one will take care of it, and you will have to risk the body being found in Shengjing. ”
At that time, the man was trying to do something wrong to the Xu family, and the man was the most negligent in taking precautions when he did such things, so it was the opportunity to kill him at that time, and the murderer took the opportunity to do it. Yuan Xiu felt that this speculation was very reasonable, but he didn't say it clearly, she was a woman after all, and she hadn't left the cabinet yet, so she could still not listen to these things.
Yuan Xiu said: "Of course it's strange, but he didn't kill that bandit necessarily to save the Xu family, that bandit accompanied the Ledan people all the way into Beijing, and killed Old Dorje, he is conspicuous and knows too much, and he is destined to be exterminated." The man killed the bandit, maybe he just took the order of Shangfeng to kill him, not to save the Xu family. ”
"He saved the Xu family, don't you think it's strange?" Twilight asked.
"I don't understand!" Yuan Xiu said angrily, marching and fighting, he was invincible, he never felt stupid, but following her to handle cases, he always felt that his brain was not good!
"Because Xu's mother and son didn't die on the way back to Xuyang County."
"Why?"
"The second is his age, the person who saved the Xu family should be the real murderer behind the scenes."
Twilight Qing took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, Shengjing's weather was dry, she asked Xu Shi a lot of words, her throat was uncomfortable, and after drinking half a cup of tea, she said: "First of all, there is no doubt that the murderer behind the scenes has a noble identity, otherwise it is difficult for him to collude with the Ledans, and he has no ability to drive the Green Python Gang, let alone appear in the Xiangfu Courtyard." ”
Yuan Xiu choked, but knowing her temperament, he could only shake his head helplessly, and sent someone out of the flower hall to do an errand, and only after he came back did he ask: "Can you say it this time?" ”
"Quick lookup!" Twilight frowned.
Yuan Xiu was stunned when he heard this, and it took a long time before he asked, "How do you know?" ”
The two went to the flower hall, and as soon as they sat down, Twilight said: "The murderer is noble, between twenty-five and thirty years old, and his height is about five feet two three, not more than five feet four inches, that is, medium height. His mother is sick all the year round, and he has a lot of affection for his biological mother and a grudge against the Yuan family. Quickly find the sons of the scholar clan who meet the above characteristics in Shengjing City, regardless of the concubine! ”
Xu Shi hurriedly knocked on Duqing, and when he looked up, he saw that she and Yuan Xiu had already left the West Chamber.
Twilight was silent when she heard this, and Xu waited for a long time and didn't see her ask again, thinking that she had finished asking, but she didn't dare to make a sound, so she just knelt on the ground and waited. I don't know how long it took, Twilight got up and said, "You can rest, your son will be brought to Fuzhong from Xuyang County in a few days, you can rest assured." ”
"About half a month."
"How long have they been in that compound?"
"Yes, there were, but there was almost no sound during the day in the courtyard next door, and at night sometimes the women got up to feed the children at night, and they could faintly hear the carriages coming and going. Those people don't move around during the day and only go out at night. ”
"You always have a time to go to the street to buy groceries, right?"
Xu shook his head, "The women's health is not good, and the children are in swaddling clothes, so most of the day is to rest in the house with the children, and when the children sleep, the women will do some women's red crafts to supplement the family." ”
"When you were at home, did you hear someone talking in the yard next door, what did they say?" Twilight has something to ask.
For more than ten years, she thought that the matter had passed, but she didn't expect that several military masters would suddenly come to her home in Xuyang County to bring her back to Shengjing, and she didn't expect that she was afraid of revenge for the events of the year, but she still met robbers on the road. It must have been those people who learned that she had arrived at the Governor's Mansion and thought that she had told her about the events of the year, so they wanted to kill her!
Xu Shi thought for a while and shook his head, "It's gone, the person will carry it out and leave." The woman came to her senses, inserted the courtyard door, and hid in the house with the child in her arms for a night, until it was dawn and the people did not come back, and then she was relieved. Later, I was afraid that those people would come again, so the women wanted to move out, but the house could not be sold, so the women packed up their belongings, took out the dowry as silver, went to the yamen to make money, and made the road guide and paperwork to move to her mother's house in Xuyang County, and left Shengjing City with her child. ”
"What else did you hear?"
Then the man was gone, and the two men who followed him carried the murderer's body out. There seemed to be a carriage parked outside, and it was dark, and across the courtyard, the women did not see it, but heard the sound of horses' hooves. ”
Twilight was silent for a moment and asked, "What happened later?" ”
"Medium, taller than the women."
"What about the man's size?"
"The woman did not know that the man was covered in a black cloak, and there was no light or candle in the house at that time, so she did not see his face."
"Who is the murderer?"
Xu Shi was shocked, but he still nodded and said: "That night, the woman had coaxed the child to sleep, because the child was still in infancy, the woman slept lightly at night, and she felt that there was a person standing at the head of the bed in a daze!" When the woman opened her eyes, she saw that the man was tall and strong, holding a knife in his hand, staring straight at the woman, so frightened that she almost fainted. The woman's screams woke up the child, and the man and the man looked fierce, and the woman was afraid that he would commit murder, so she knelt on the ground with the child in her arms and begged for mercy. The man asked if she had heard any movement in the house next door these days, and the woman shook her head, and the man said that if he dared to tell the story of the courtyard, even if he moved the house, he would find out and kill our mother and son. The women thought that he would leave after the threat, but he had a lustful heart and wanted to do wrong...... The women and women of the people were afraid that he would kill my child, so they did not dare to resist, thinking that they ...... Unexpectedly, a bloody knife suddenly appeared from that man's heart! ”
"The ins and outs of this matter, you come one by one!" At this moment, Twilight's voice came.
Xu's heart was frightened, only to feel that the man sitting in front of him was like a killing god, and the hearty man in the rumors in the market seemed to be inconsistent with what he saw in front of him.
"Rescued?" Yuan Xiu's eyebrows were pressed, and the eyebrows were suddenly like a haze, and his eyes were domineering, like a wind knife in the northwest.
"No, no!" Xu knew that Twilight was a lifesaver for her and her only son, so no matter how ashamed she was, she gritted her teeth and said, "That night, the murderer saw that there was no man in the woman's house, so he ...... Then I gave birth to a lust heart! Just when he was about to do something wrong, the woman was rescued by a person! ”
Sure enough, Xu wanted to speak and stopped. Seeing the look of shame and indignation on her face, Twilight couldn't help but sink in her heart, and asked in a cold voice, "What, you still want to hide something after this incident?" ”
Twilight can figure out why, and when she asks Xu because she didn't meet a killer on the way to Xuyang County, she wonders why.
The person behind the scenes didn't want to do some senseless cases in Shengjing City to attract attention, so he ordered someone to threaten the two families, intending to kill them on the way out of the two families.
But the neighbors' houses on the left and right are different, everyone in the alley knows that these two families are still alive, if they are wiped out overnight or both families disappear, it will definitely attract the attention of the government and the panic of the people.
Both of them were people who had to be killed, and their bodies were thrown into the well, and the owner of the house had already died of illness, and if it weren't for the distant nephew of the lonely old woman who came to fight for the house, Zheng Langzhong's body would not have been noticed.
Old Dorje is the person of the eldest prince of Ledan, and the people behind the collusion with the second prince of Leden want to kill the eldest prince, so they have to solve the old Dorje.
Zheng Langzhong had treated Prince Ledan's dental disease and had been close to them, so he had to stop talking.
Listening to Xu's words, the bandits of the Green Python Gang should be the murderer of Lao Dorje. He didn't kill Xu's mother and son on the spot that night, for a very simple reason - the murder case was a big case, and it would be too eye-catching.
Twilight ignored him and continued to ask Xu, "Since the Green Python Gang is ruthless in all its actions, why didn't he kill your mother and son at that time?" ”
The back of Yuan Xiu's hand was hot and painful, but his smile was like a blazing sun, "Don't always treat me as a patient, I have always come to the Governor's Mansion to follow you to investigate the case these days, don't you see if I'm fine?" ”
Yuan Xiu entered the room and sat down beside Twilight, stretched out his hand and poured a cup of tea, and just as he was about to drink it, Twilight slapped him on the hand, turned to Yang and said, "Get a pot of water." ”
"In the first few years of the Holy Dynasty's accession to the throne, the situation was unstable, and the bandits in Jiangbei continued to be troubled for many years, among which there was a gang of bandits, and the gang had tattoos on all the bodies, and the people in the rivers and lakes called the Green Python Gang. This gang did all kinds of evil and acted ruthlessly, and in three years, they annexed the bandits in Shangling and Yuezhou, and the murders were all done hundreds of miles away from Shengjing. At that time, I went to the northwest to join the army, traveled through Yuezhou, and killed the main village of the Python Gang on the way, killed hundreds of their bandits day and night, took the head of their gang leader, and threw it into the state government of Yuezhou after going down the mountain. As soon as the leader of the Green Python Gang died, the bandits dispersed, and the bandits who had been suppressed in Yuezhou for half a year wiped out the gang almost to the end. After I arrived in the northwest, I led the army to suppress bandits in the northwest, and the bandits in Jiangbei have not been serious in these years, and the green python gang has not heard of it in the rivers and lakes for many years. ”
