Chapter 305: Seven Investigations
In that well underneath, Yin Seventeen smelled a strong smell of blood. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
I think that the water used by the accomplices to clean the wooden house was the water brought from the well, and the water from this well was also used by the murderer to soak the corpse after the murder.
Wei Hai then said that he wanted to go and see the well in person, and Leng Cangran also said that he wanted to go with him.
Yin Seventeen nodded and said Okay, some Kancha clues, different people look at it, check it from different angles, there will always be unexpected different results.
She wanted that, but of course there were cases where it didn't work out.
Next, Wei Hai asked a very important question: "The two deceased people didn't find anything else?" ”
The things in Weihai's mouth refer to the remaining broken body parts of the two deceased, the bones that have been removed, the human skin that has been peeled off, and the internal organs, Yin Seventeen understands it, but she really hasn't found it for the time being.
The third time she was dropped, she discovered the well underneath, but what about the first two?
Does it also represent something?
If the mystery is solved, will all the problems be solved?
Wei Hai was a little depressed, and Leng Cangran seemed to have been poured a large basin of cold water, and he didn't look like he had any energy until he left the inn.
He Xingtian didn't take the initiative to go to the Yamen to find Wei Hai or Leng Cangran, because he couldn't remember that night thirteen years ago at all.
When Wei Hai came to look for He Xingtian again, the clues he got were not provided by He Xingtian, but by He Xingtian's wife.
He Xingtian's wife said that she still remembered some because He Xingtian suddenly took out a full ten taels of broken silver on the night thirteen years ago, and she was so happy that night that she didn't sleep much all night, which made her very impressed.
Last time, Wei Hai asked He Xingtian, and after He Xingtian returned home from the City God Temple in the middle of the game, he probably told his wife the purpose of Wei Hai's coming to him, and the old wife also remembered that night after hearing it, but she didn't care about it at that time, so she didn't mention it.
Until Wei Hai came to the door again, He Xingtian was asked by Wei Hai when he was full of worries yesterday, his old wife Fang suddenly said a word, saying that it was at the beginning of the ugly night.
As soon as Wei Hai heard He Xingtian's wife say a specific hour, he was so excited that he asked three times in a row.
He Xingtian's old wife didn't dare to think that Wei Hai was so verbose, and only explained that because she had a lot of ten taels of silver, it was a windfall for her family, who was not very wealthy back then, where would she not remember?
It's just that He Xingtian's wife didn't expect that it would be all the savings accumulated by Wang Erzhu, and she didn't know that it was Wang Erzhu's life-saving money that wanted to go to Xiao Yatou and accidentally saved Lu Huanzhu, who was raped and almost killed, and Wei Hai didn't say it.
"Ugly time?" Yin Seventeen asked, "Are you sure?" ”
"Sure! He Xingtian guarded Wang Erzhu and Lu Huanzhu back to the city, opened the city gate for the two, and then went home, and then I went to the city gate to check the shift time of some of the city guards, and confirmed that this time was right! Wei Hai affirmed.
"Then as long as the specific time when Xiao Yatou was killed back then, it will be enough to confirm whether Wang Erzhu is the murderer of the corpse crushing case back then." Yin Seventeen didn't say it from Jiang Fuyao's words, and she already had eighty percent of her fingers to prove that Wang Erzhu was indeed wronged back then.
But she couldn't tell.
What do you want her to say?
Say Jiang Fuyao's dead words?
No, don't say that Wei Hai and Leng Cangran believe it or not, the less people know about her ability, the better, otherwise I am afraid that it will be endless trouble.
Wei Hai also knew that Yin Seventeen had a point in saying this, but the question was how to determine the specific time when Xiao Yatou was killed?
They can't even find out the specific time when Jiang Fuyao and Jiang Kuanshun were killed now, how can they investigate the old case that has passed thirteen years?
Leng Cangran also muttered a few words of this meaning, and his morale was very low.
Yin Qiqi saw that Wei Hai and Leng Cangran were more or less affected by Wei Lian's investigation and handling of the corpse crushing case, this kind of thing had to be accepted by themselves, otherwise it would be useless for her to talk and persuade more.
As soon as Wei Hai had lunch, he went directly back to the yamen to take out the horse, and wanted to quickly go to the first scene of the crime to check, Leng Cangran also followed, so he sent a fast hand who had been following Leng Cangran to investigate the murderer and the suspected accomplice to the inn.
This Kuaishou is also surnamed Leng, with a single name Xi.
Hearing the same surname, Yin Seventeen asked Leng Xi if he was related to Leng Cangran?
Leng Xi said no, just the same surname.
Leng Xi is not a person of many words, he took Yin Seventeen and Three people all the way to the first of the seven households, if Yin Seventeen and Three did not ask, he almost never took the initiative to speak.
On the way, the three of them learned about the basic situation of this first household.
The two of them, mother and son, were a family in the slums, with only one tiled house, and the roof was still leaking with wind, and when it rained, it would have to leak, and the house was almost clear at a glance.
Yin Qiqi followed Leng Xi out of the first family's house, and shook his head at Leng Xi, denying the possibility that these two people were the murderers and accomplices of the crime.
Leng Xi followed Yin Seventeen out of the first poor family where only mother and son depended on each other, and asked puzzledly:
"Her son has been bleeding from the nose for many years, isn't this consistent with the description of the accomplice, and the mother has been working in the butcher's house for many years, don't look at her thirties and looks like she is forty or fifty years old, but her hands are strong in cutting and chopping meat, and her hand speed is also fast, and it is accurate, these I and Leng Catch Kuai have been confirmed before they are suspected, why does the Yin boy think it's not?"
Yin Seventeen said: "Her son has had a nosebleed for many years, so you think he is an accomplice?" ”
Seeing Leng Xi nodding, Yin Seventeen continued:
"Since you believe that her son is an accomplice, then this mother is the murderer, but do you think that this mother has a withdrawn temperament, is not good at communicating with people, and rarely goes out, and hardly sets foot in the door?"
Leng Xi was stunned, he and Leng Cangran didn't expect this at that time.
Even if she can go to the butcher's house to help, and this helper has been working for many years, it shows that this mother not only goes out every day, not to mention enthusiastic and cheerful temperament, but it is also far from being withdrawn.
Well, they were all dizzy at the time, confirmed the east, and forgot to confirm the west at the same time.
"Also, although this mother is only in her thirties, but as you said, she looks older than her actual age in her teens and twenties, these are all forced by the poor life and pressed out of the rapid aging, although she has the strength to cut and chop meat, but it is also forced to make a living, her body is thin, she was fine when she was young, as she grows older, she will inevitably feel more and more difficult, unable to do it, about the strength of the work of helping the butcher's house, it will definitely not be able to do it for long, but although she has done this work hard, but the salary is high, so she won't really quit this job for a while. Yin Seventeen continued to explain.
Leng Xi asked: "That's why you asked her just now if she wanted to change her job, but she was reluctant to change?" ”
Yin Seventeen said: "Well, she's carrying it." ”
At that time, the mother was stunned, and then asked Yin Seventeen how she knew the plan she had been struggling with for a long time?
Yin Seventeen didn't explain much, but only persuaded the mother that her son had lost his father early, and asked her to take good care of herself, the silver would never be earned, but the mother had only one.
At that time, her son was standing behind the mother, and she seemed to feel something, and when she looked back, she saw her son's slightly wet eyes.
"Besides, I said that accomplices have a penchant for provocation, but when her son saw you, a yamen fast player, his eyes were full of awe, which shows that he was either timid and scared when he saw the official, or he had suffered the loss of the official, so when he saw the official, he was subconsciously afraid, and such a person could not be an accomplice." Yin Seventeen is conclusive.
When he came to the second house, Leng Xi didn't ask anything more, he just followed Yin Seventeen to watch Yin Seventeen, and he was as quiet as when he led the way at the beginning, and no one asked him, so he didn't say a word.
The second family is a pair of fatherless and motherless brothers, whose life is moderate, because the two brothers are both young and have their own skills, so there is no problem with their daily livelihood, and they each work hard to save money, thinking that they will marry and have children as soon as possible.
After inquiry, the brothers were quickly eliminated by Yin Seventeen.
This time, Leng Xi directly took Yin Seventeen and the three people to the third household, and did not ask Yin Seventeen more why he ruled it out.
Ye Ziluo and Zeng Pinzheng know the case very well, not to mention Yin Seventeen, the two of them can each see some reasons for exclusion, so the two of them were also quiet all the way, and they didn't ask Yin Seventeen much about anything.
By the time we reached the last household, it was already dusk.
Leng Xi said: "This last family does not live in the city, lives in a small village about ten miles away by the city gate, there are only more than ten families there, all of them are tenants of the Hong family in the city, this will definitely go into the night, Yin Gongzi, are we still going?" ”
Yin Seventeen affirmed: "Go!" ”
After checking the six households, Yin Seventeen actually faintly felt in his heart that this investigation would be in the end, just an empty one?
Rather than letting this last unchecked family make her worry about it for a long time, so that she can't sleep well at night, it is better to go and ask if the result will be empty, and it will be tonight.
If Yin Seventeen and Three wanted to go, Leng Xi naturally had to lead the way.
The reason why it was ranked last by Leng Xi was also because this family was on the edge of the city gate, which was not a wilderness, but it was also very biased.
If it weren't for the Hong family's land on this site, there probably wouldn't be more than a dozen tenant farmers living here.
At night, I couldn't see the field clearly, but I felt that it was black.
Leng Xi led the way in front with a lantern, and Yin Seventeen and Three followed behind.
The tenants' houses are all tiled houses, and more than a dozen tiled houses are scattered around the fields, and they can't see much under the dark curtain, so they can only listen to the cold evening that came during the day to introduce some information:
"The tenants here are not very good, although these years are beautiful, it is a bumper harvest every year, but the Hong family collects a heavy rent every year, and no matter how bumper a harvest it is, it can't withstand such a heavy rent!"
Zeng Pinzheng's family grows crops, so he couldn't help asking:
"How much rent does the Hong family collect?"
Leng Xi glanced at the young man who couldn't ask a few words along the way, but it was dark at night, and he only saw a general figure, and quickly replied:
"Seventy percent!"
"Seventy percent?" Ye Ziluo couldn't help but exclaim.
Ye Ziluo's family is a big family in Beijing, and he also knows a little about putting the fields for tenants to cultivate, although it is not much, but it is enough for him to know that the rent of seventy percent is indeed too heavy.
Yin Seventeen had never farmed, but she had lived with Granny Tao for five years, and she was not a wealthy family, and she had heard some things about the crops, including the case of tenants being exploited by the master's family.
Hearing this, she also knew that the tenants of this small village were only afraid that they would dare to be angry with the Hong family.
Leng Xi was also angry, when he first learned about it, Leng Cangran almost went back to the city and rushed to the Hong Mansion to find the Hong family's theory, but later he was still stopped by him, and persuaded the impulsive and irritable Leng Cangran for a long time.
"Most of these ordinary lords are collecting half of the rent from tenants, and some of the lords are merciful, and when they encounter natural and man-made disasters, they will reduce the rent by one percent, but this Hong family is doing the opposite, and now Hong Kuanshun has been killed...... Leng Xi snorted coldly, and then did not continue.
But Leng Xi's meaning, Yin Seventeen and the three people all understood.
This Hong family is so unkind to the poor tenants, and now that Hong Kuanshun is dead, and he is still dying so miserably, I am afraid that many people will have to applaud, among which these tenants should be the most.
After thinking about it again, Yin Qiqi felt that Jiang Fulin's family heard that Hong Kuanshun was also killed, and knew the causes and consequences of this case, so they probably didn't just clap their hands and applaud, they should grit their teeth and scold again.
After all, if there was no Hong Kuanshun's lustful heart, followed and entangled, and intended to insult Jiang Fuyao, would the current result be different?
Xingjiang Fuyao returned to Chai's house safely that night, and Hong Kuanshun was still not ashamed to be his old man.
Yin Seventeen exhaled, but unfortunately there is never a way back in this world, let alone a hypothetical if.
When he arrived at the seventh house, the tiled house of the last family did not have a low wall made of simple mud like the others, and without the small courtyard enclosed by this low wall, Leng Xi took Yin Seventeen and three people directly to the door of the tiled house, which only had one room.
The room was pitch black, and Leng Xi knocked on the door several times, but no one answered:
"It can't be home, right?"
Ye Ziluo looked at the front and back of the house, and only found a small window at the back of the house, and when he looked inside, he couldn't see his fingers and saw nothing.
Back in front of the house, Ye Ziluo shook his head at Yin Seventeen:
"The window at the back of the house was very small, and it was quite high, and I jumped up and looked at the edge of the window, and I saw very little, and there was no light in the room, only the light of the moonlight shining into the room, and I only saw a table, and I could no longer see the others, and I wanted to see if the people in the house were asleep, but I couldn't see the bed, and the bed was placed in the corner of the room, and I couldn't see it at all from the angle of the window!"
Yin Qiqi didn't say anything after hearing this, only asked Leng Xi to give up the position in front of the door, she leaned her ears on the door and listened for a while, then turned back to the three of them:
"I can't hear anything, if a person is asleep, there should be a long, even breathing sound, but I listened carefully, but I didn't hear anything, and there was really no one in the room."
When Leng Xi heard this, he looked at a house on the side of the tiled house, and said seventeen to Yin:
"You wait here, I'll knock on the door of another house and ask."
