Chapter 113 Goodbye Xiao Jue
"You mean, there is an improper relationship between Mrs. Ziliang and Zhu Li?" I'm not like Gaotao, he naturally has to take care of a lot, how can he say this bluntly with his usual image of a gentleman, so I said it for him. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Gao Tao lowered his head and acquiesced, but immediately he found something, "What, is it ...... Miss Huo Xi?"
"I didn't hear it, I saw it." The ambiguity between Mrs. Ziliang and Zhu Li is so obvious, even if it weren't for me who has studied psychology, I'm afraid any ordinary person would find it unusual. "But to my surprise, they didn't mean to hide it at all, but they were very generous."
"This ......" Gao Tao didn't know what to say for a while.
In fact, I also noticed one thing from Gao Tao's words just now, "However, Ji Li and Mrs. Ziliang don't hide it at all in the courtyard, not to mention anything else, even Mrs. Ziliang's maidservants are not strange, it can be seen how far they have to do on weekdays." Is Sui Que still so obsessed? Didn't he know that Qi Li had put a huge green hat on him? ”
"Cuckold, what's that?" Gao Tao thought it was a clue.
I'm speechless, I was wrong, it's time to consider the ability of people of their time to understand new words. "Don't worry about it that much. In other words, isn't this Lili and Mrs. Ziliang the relationship between her aunt and nephew? ”
"This is true when it comes to seniority. Mrs. Ziliang's mother and Zhu Li's maternal grandmother are considered to be related, so Zhu Li will call Mrs. Ziliang an aunt. Gao Tao explained the doubts I had been thinking about all along, "However, as for the relationship between Zili and Mrs. Ziliang, I think Lord Sui Que should know, but why he still indulges them, then I don't know." ”
"Sui Que knows that his wife is having an affair with his favorite heir, can he still pretend not to know? The heart is so big! "However, if you think about it from another angle, it is true that Sui Que is also the leader of the Fuying clan, if this makes a big fuss and spreads out, let others know that his wife is having an affair with the future heir, then this green hat on his head will be worn even bigger.
"It's just that, Miss Huo Xi, you just said that Mrs. Zili and Mrs. Ziliang designed you with this case...... Is that ......?" Gao Tao could vaguely guess some.
I nodded, "You guessed it right, it's all a blessing that dragged this face, and all kinds of cleaning up the mess." Looking outside, "Let's go over and find out the real cause of the doctor's death, and I will probably be able to determine the direction of the murderer." ”
"Okay." Gao Tao should say.
……
Xiao Jue's hands pinched the deceased's head and face for a long time, and then wiped his hands on the coarse cloth next to him. Examination of the deceased's body for stab wounds began again...... He compared the length and thickness of each wound, and then plunged the dagger I later asked for from Mrs. Ziliang's family into the wound of the deceased...... After checking these, he wiped his hand on a coarse cloth, then turned the wheels and turned the wheelchair towards us.
"There were a total of nine stab wounds on the deceased's body. But the three stabs on his right arm, the one on his left arm, and the one on the palm of his right hand were cuts, not piercings, and were cut by a sharp blade in a fight, and these wounds were similar to the generosity of the dagger you found. I have examined the dagger you found next to the rockery, and it is indeed exactly similar to the dagger you came later, and I think that the cut wound was caused by this dagger. The deceased was stabbed twice in the chest, once in the abdomen, and once in the lower back, all of which were caused within an hour or two after death, and the person who caused the stabbing wounds in the corpse should be a veteran and good at using knives, but these knives were not caused by daggers. "I haven't seen him for a long time, he is already light, and he can't see the joy of seeing his old friend again, "However, for the few scratches on the deceased's body, Huo Xi, what do you think?" ”
I let out a long sigh and came back to my senses. "At the time the body was found, I conducted a preliminary analysis of the condition of the body when I was inspecting the scene......
"You, have you examined the corpse?!" Gao Tao was a little surprised.
I tilted my head and continued, "I thought that these cuts and wounds on the deceased's body should have been caused during the resistance. That is to say, when the deceased was fighting with the person who stabbed him, he was in a state of defense, evading, resisting, and then being stabbed, and the whole process, the deceased was very passive. The knife in his palm was very deep, and the bones could be seen, and judging from the injury, the deceased had already held the blade at that time, but was violently pulled away by the person who stabbed him, so the wound in his palm was from the outside to the inside, and the inside of the palm to the position of his tiger's mouth was the most serious. What I have always been puzzled about is that when a normal person faces a person who hurts him with a knife with his bare hands, shouldn't he press the wrist of the person who stabbed him? Or grasping the other person's hand holding the hilt of the knife. But the deceased obviously held the blade, why did he do this, if he did this, he would definitely be injured, and the deceased was also a doctor, so it was impossible not to know this. ”
"So, what do you think the person who stabbed him ......" Xiao Jue sensed what I was about to say next.
"Yes, I think the person who stabbed him should be someone he knew, and he didn't take precautions at first, and for some reason he suddenly attacked him. And one thing, as I had assumed in the simulation of the last time he left the room in the deceased's room, was the same person he knew, who took him out of the room and stabbed him. "It's familiarity, it's just acquaintance, you can grab the blade with your hands, and he must have been incredulous in addition to panic and fear.
Because he never thought that this would be the one who attacked him, he held the blade and questioned the person who had stabbed him......
"Another point, which struck me as strange, is that it stands to reason that the posture of using a dagger should be to hold the handle of the dagger backwards, and then inflict damage from the outside and from the inside. If the person who stabbed the deceased was a right-handed person, and the deceased was standing opposite the murderer, then for the deceased, the resistance wound on his arm should have been from left to right, and the most serious wound should have been the left side of the wound that touched the dagger blade first. And now the deceased lying here is just the opposite, he has three stabs on his right arm and one on his left arm, and all the wounds are almost from right to left...... So I think this murderer should be a left-handed person. "I told the conclusion I had come to when I examined the body.
"Yes, I thought so, too." Xiao Jue agrees with my conclusion.
"But I don't think the cause of death of the deceased was these knives. Judging from the superficial state of his body, I think he may have died of suffocation, but I could not find the cause of his suffocation, there were no pinch marks on his neck, no strangulation marks, and no other marks on the surface that could cause suffocation. But I smelled a smell in his mouth at that time, and I thought that he had drunk medicine before he died, and this medicine might have cured him of some kind of disease, so I wondered if there was a heart problem with this person, or that there was some other hidden disease, and after he drank the medicine, the effect of the medicine had not yet occurred, but because of the sudden attack, his illness intensified, which caused sudden death of suffocation. By the way," I took out the residue I found where the doctor worked, "this is the residue found in his room, where he usually works, and I haven't had time to pour it out, I smell very similar to the smell in his mouth, you can see if you can find it." ”
Xiao Jue took the medicine residue from my hand, he smelled the medicine residue, and then smelled the taste in the deceased's mouth, and when he raised his head again, his brows frowned, "Huo Xi, you come to help me, let's re-examine the corpse again." ”
I rolled up my sleeves and stepped forward to help.
……
"Sure enough." After finishing the examination of the corpse, Xiao Jue wiped his hands with a coarse cloth placed aside, and handed me another piece of unused one.
"So, he really has a heart problem?" When I opened the corpse examination just now, the corpse's heart shrank into a ball, which was obviously different from a normal person, so this could be regarded as an indirect confirmation of my suspicion.
Xiao Jue was silent for a while, then spoke again, and only said two words, "Ephedra." ”
"What?" Although I can understand that he is saying that it should be an important name, I don't understand this flavor medicine very well.
"Ephedra is commonly found on hillsides, plains, dry wastelands, riverbeds and grasslands, and often forms large areas of simple communities. It is distributed in areas with low humidity and little moisture, and is easy to harvest, and the green grassy stems are harvested in autumn and dried in the sun. Its nature is warm, the taste is pungent, slightly bitter, has the effect of sweating and dissipating cold, promoting lung asthma, diluting water and reducing swelling, and can treat wind and cold, chest tightness, asthma, cough, feng shui edema, bronchial asthma and other diseases. It's just that ephedra has strong sweating power, so it should be contraindicated or used with caution for mild symptoms of external wind and cold, palpitations, insomnia, lung deficiency, cough and asthma. Xiao Jue first popularized to me what the Chinese medicine he was talking about, and then said, "Among the decoction that the deceased took before his death, compared with the attached medicine residue you found, there is just more of this medicine." ”
"The deceased's medicine is more than the dregs I found? Could it be that the residue I found was not taken by the deceased before his death? "But I am sure that the taste in the mouth of the deceased is very similar to the taste of the residue, and under normal circumstances, I am not likely to be mistaken.
"Codonopsis, Astragalus, Chuanqiong, Lycium Berry, Polygonum Multiflori, Peony Peel, Fried Atractylodes, Poria Cocos, Epimedium Weed, Cinnamon Branch, Angelica, Moxibustion Licorice...... There are also roasted beef bones. Xiao Jue was so sure, then what he said should be the prescription that the deceased took before his death. He paused for a moment, turned his head sideways and thought for a while, "The deceased did die of angina, which was induced by physical activity, emotional agitation, etc., and suddenly felt pain in the precordial area, mostly episodic colic or squeezing pain, or suffocation. The pain starts behind the sternum or precordial area and radiates upward to the left shoulder, arm, and even the little and ring fingers, and can also involve the neck, jaw, teeth, abdomen, etc. Judging from the reaction of his corpse, he has been taking medicine for angina for a long time, so he himself suffers from angina, and he must have been suffering from angina for some years. Some of the flavors in this medicine were very expensive, so his position in the palace was also convenient for him to take the medicine for his own use. (To be continued.) )
