Bai Qingruo ordered the girl to accept Wei Yi's smug and two jars of spicy cabbage. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Okay, Yi'er, don't tease your master anymore. Who doesn't know that your master is a hard-mouthed and soft-hearted master, and he says Zhishi Zhishi in his mouth, but he doesn't let go of it for a moment in his heart. No, he was still nagging me last night, saying that Yi'er was here tomorrow, and he would definitely ask about the case of the white bones in the cave of Da Ai Mountain. After dinner later, you master and apprentice will have a good chat about the case, and I have to ask Miss Yueran for advice on how to make a spicy cabbage that can make your master look straight. ”
Bai Qingruo's words made the three of them laugh.
The atmosphere of the four of them was harmonious, and after the luncheon, Murong Jin and Wei Yi drank tea and talked in the front hall, and Bai Qingruo took Shen Yueran to the courtyard.
"Has Master also paid attention to the cave white bone case?" Wei Yi asked.
Murong Jin nodded, "Qingming went to Da Ai Mountain, and saw that there were officials haunting, so he asked casually, and the Tao was that white bones were found in the northwest cave, and the government sealed the cave. This case is secretive, long-standing, and there are not many clues, and it is the first case after Qilin took office, so I asked two more questions at that time. ”
"What does Master think?" Wei Yi asked again.
"I haven't been to the scene to see it, and the bones have not been seen, so it's hard to conclude based on speculation." Murong Jin replied.
Wei Yi pondered for a moment and said, "This case is closed. ”
"It's over?" Murong Jin frowned, "Tell me." ”
Wei Yi said, "The victim is a person from Huanghuai New County, named Ou Chuxiu, who was only 20 years old when he was killed. Three years ago, he died of a sudden illness in his parents, so he came to the capital to seek refuge with relatives. Unexpectedly, he was robbed halfway, not only was his money robbed, but he also stepped into the air in a panic, fell into a trough, fractured his left leg, and fell unconscious. Later, he was rescued by passers-by and treated by Ouyang Miao, a famous doctor in Beijing, before he picked up a life.
He recovered from his injury and longed for the prosperity of the capital, because he was thin and weak, his legs and feet were injured, and he couldn't afford to work, so he started as a junior in Guiyun Building. According to the recollection of the shopkeeper of Guiyun Building, he did not see him after the Chinese New Year last year. Guiyunlou opened on the fifth day of the first month, and he did not resume work. Because he has always been generous, at that time, everyone thought that he was looking for relatives and had a backer in the capital, so he didn't think much about it. After he disappeared, the shopkeeper threw all his things to the beggars on the street, and slowly forgot about this person.
It wasn't until Nie Tixing found Guiyun Building with the sugar white jade found in the cave in the cave that a junior who usually ate and lived with Ou Chuxiu remembered that he had seen this piece of sugar white jade under Ou Chuxiu's pillow. Nie Tixing found a bone crack on the inside of the left tibia of the white bone, which coincided with the location of Ou Chuxiu's fracture, plus the time and age of Ou Chuxiu's disappearance were also highly consistent with the time and age of the corpse's white ossification, so Nie Tixing determined that the white bone in the cave was Ou Chuxiu.
Nie Tixing returned to the cave again, carefully investigated, and finally found a mutilated bloody footprint in the corner. Although the footprints are incomplete, it can be roughly deduced that the owner should be a man with a length of five feet and three inches, and Ou Chuxiu is thin and small, less than five feet and one inch, so there is no doubt that this bloody footprint was left by the murderer.
A few days later, the officials arrested a middle-aged man, who was the grave keeper of Da Ai Mountain, named Gao Dayong. The official said, this person always sneakily hides in the woods, peeps into the cave, and pretends to pass by unintentionally several times, asking the official about the progress of the case, and his behavior is quite suspicious. The most important thing is that this person is exactly five feet three inches tall. Nie Ti was interrogated several times, and this person was recruited.
It turned out that when this person passed by Guiyun Tower one day, he had a quarrel with Ou Chu Xiu because of giving up his seat and serving food, which made him feel that he was neglected, so he held a grudge. Later, when he entered the city near the New Year's Pass, he saw Ou Chuxiu buying alone in the bazaar, so he had a bad heart and deceived Ou Chuxiu into the northwest cave of Daai Mountain on the grounds that he had high-quality New Year's goods.
He wanted to scare him, but unexpectedly, Ou Chuxiu reacted violently and punched and kicked him, and in a panic, he took out a portable dagger and thrust it into Ou Chuxiu's heart. Ou Chuxiu was killed with one blow, and he threw the body into the hole in the cave and fled in a hurry.
He thought that he didn't know about this matter, and the ghost didn't know it, but unexpectedly, more than a year after the incident, the white bones reappeared. He was at peace day and night, so he went to inquire about the case, but it was revealed, and because of a bloody footprint, he left evidence of the crime. ”
After Wei Yi finished speaking, he asked again, "What does Master think?" ”
Murong Jin was silent, and after drinking a cup of tea, he asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" ”
Wei Yi looked embarrassed.
"Nie Tixing is a master and a junior brother, and ethically an apprentice's uncle, I ......"
Murong Jin blackened his face again.
"I haven't seen each other for months, and it's a lot more pedantic. I only ask you what you think of this case, and I don't make you reasonable, what do you mean by those irrelevant words? ”
Wei Yi got an answer, got up and saluted, "The apprentice always feels that this case is full of doubts and is not enough to close the case." ”
Murong Jin glanced at him and motioned for him to continue.
Wei Yi said, "First, Gao Dayong is five feet three inches tall, has a strong physique, and has a cheeky face, and he is a rough person at a glance. He had a verbal dispute with Ou Chuxiu, and Ou Chuxiu was not in a tight situation on weekdays. And Ou Chuxiu actually followed Gao Dayong, who only had one side of the relationship, to the place of the grave because of the sentence 'high-grade New Year's goods', which is unreasonable.
Second, even if Ou Chuxiu was obsessed with money for a while and followed Gao Dayong to the cave, his actions in the cave were still unreasonable. When he realizes that the tall and brave are not good, it is common sense that he should outwit rather than attack. First, the comparison of the body size of the two is placed there, one is tall, the other is thin, hard and hard, like an egg hitting a stone, no matter how stupid Ou Chu Xiurao is, he will not be stupid enough to take the initiative to provoke an opponent who is stronger than himself. Second, it was a secret cave, and it was also a great mourning mountain that Gao Dayong was familiar with, even if he had enough ability to defeat Gao Dayong, he might not have the ability to run too far away. Therefore, the 'fists and feet facing each other' in Gao Dayong's mouth, in vain, needs to be verified.
Third, it's about bloody footprints.
This case is more than a year ago, and if it weren't for a coincidence, Ou Chuxiu's bones might never see the light of day. However, it is precisely because the cave is secret, more than a year ago, that it is even more unreasonable to say that the bloody footprints are the tomb keeper Gao Dayong. Gao Dayong is familiar with Da Ai Mountain, and he knows that he killed someone in the cave, even if he panicked and fled in a hurry at that time, he still has a lot of time to clean up in the cave afterwards. Even if he hadn't resorted to such cruel tactics as sealing the hole or burning it down, he wouldn't have let a bloody footprint remain for a year, and in the end it would have become incriminating evidence against him!
