Chapter 21: Investigations

Song Ci said: "The pond is deep and the water is buoyant, even if it falls from any part of the pond, the corpse may float here, which is not surprising."

Qin Xiaoyue suddenly realized, why is it such a simple question, she just can't think of it?

"Xiaoyue, you do Song a favor and see if there are any reeds that have been damaged near the pond, or if some grass has been trampled on."

Qin Xiaoyue snorted and ran out.

Song Ci squatted down and turned over on the ground for a while, and in a corner, there happened to be some silver, which should have been left by the deceased Feng San, why was it left here?

No, the murderer obviously wouldn't have killed him and then undressed him, and if he was a coward, he would have to flee at that time.

In this way, there is another possibility, that is, the deceased Feng San was sure to have gone into the water, but why he died in the water, I don't know.

Mo... Could it be that he really drowned? No, this possibility is very small, the fish farmer has been dealing with water for a long time, and the water should be very good, and there is no drowning.

Moreover, it is possible that the murderer learned that the deceased Feng San would come to the pond to fish today, and he had already buried it here in advance, and then ..... Take advantage of the opportunity.

In the distance, Qin Xiaoyue beckoned: "My lord, there is a situation here."

Song Ci immediately walked over, and when he looked at the scene, the grass over there had been crushed into a large area, I don't know when it was left, and the smell of blood spread, it was the smell of fish.

Here, isn't it also a crime scene? Who left these footprints, Song Ci squatted down and took a closer look, there were two kinds of shoe prints, both of which were cloth shoes worn by the people.

I saw that there was a mark that stepped deep into the soil, and it should have taken a lot of force at that time, which was left by the murderer.

This person has small soles, is not tall, or is an old man, but, Feng is in his early twenties, how can he not beat him?

Just when Song Ci was more distracted, Feng San's old father came over with Xiangla and the dark coin, and when he saw Song Ci, he said; "Guys, why are you still here? Although my son is dead, this fishpond belongs to the old man, don't you still want to..."

Song Ci said: "The old man misunderstood, in fact, I just came here to take a casual look, Song Mou, as a criminal officer, now except for human life, how can he not ask?"

The old man said: "Isn't the murderer that Lu Sheng?" has been arrested by the Yamen], my lord, are you mistaken? Could it be that there are other murderers in this case?"

"This... That's true, for example, Song found that this place may be the first scene, because there are footprints under your feet, old man, how long did you not come to fish before this?"

The old man said: "It's going to be at least a month, and I don't dare to catch it too much, I caught all the big fish, how can I get a cub?"

"In this way, the mark on Song's feet was not a month ago, but only recently, and, looking at the shoe prints, there should be two people at the scene, one of them is not tall, the shoes are small, but the trampling is powerful, perhaps, he was already ruthless at that time to put people to death."

The old man said: "My hard-working child, I was killed at a young age, and your mother and I sent the white-haired people to the black-haired people, how can we live in the future."

Song Ci said: "Don't be sad for the elderly, people can't be resurrected after death, and the living live better, this is the greatest consolation for the dead."

The old man wiped away his tears and looked at Song Ci, "Lord Tiren, this Lu Sheng may be very suspicious, otherwise why did he appear on the edge of the pond early in the morning?" Isn't that guilty?"

Song Ci said: "That Huang Mazi is still here to inform you, is he not suspicious?" He also found out that Lu Sheng fished up my child's body, so he came to inform me that the sentencing lord, this jute is not suspicious.

Song Ci said: "Then Lu Sheng also went to the Yamen to report to the official, according to what you said, he should not be suspicious, old man, are you right?"

"Then he... Then he also deliberately reported to the official, and then made a false appearance to tell everyone, I, Lu Shengdu, reported the case, the murderer must not be me, the punishment of the adult, this is his cleverness, fortunately, Guo Zhixian is aware of everything, otherwise wouldn't he have let this villain go?

Song Ci said: "Old man, what is your impression of this Lu Sheng?" What about others? When was the last time you met?"

The old man said: "For Lu Sheng, I haven't seen each other for several days, remind the adults, this person seems to be honest, but in fact, he has a bad stomach in his heart, I suspect that my son died at his hands."

The old man left, and the two looked at it for a long time, and in the distance, Wencheng Wenwu ran over, "My lord, just now we found a situation on the other side of the pond, it seems that we found a rag." ”

Song Ci walked over and looked at the ground, which was taken down from his clothes, the cloth he wore in the summer, fished up from the water, and he didn't know when it fell.

"My lord, you see that this fabric should be very common on the street, not worn by the rich, it seems to be used by ordinary people at the bottom."

Song Ci picked it up and took a look, it was only the size of a palm, and there were blood stains on it

“.... Could it be that the deceased was caught by the murderer at that time? If so, then there may be injuries on the body of the deceased. ”

Song Ci said: "Wencheng Wenwu, you continue to check on the side, once you have any clues, you must tell me!"

The two of them acted immediately, and Xiao Yue said, "My lord, have you found any clues from this fabric?"

"This. Miss Satsuki, take this cloth to the tailor's shop right away and see if anyone can fill in the pants with such a gap.

“.. I see what you mean, my lord!"

"Well, we'll meet at the entrance of the gambling hall later, you go over first, remember to be careful and safe on the road."

Qin Xiaoyue left, Song Ci kept looking at the scene of the crime, the clues were getting fewer and fewer, and Wen Cheng Wenwu also came over at this time.

"My lord, after our search, it is difficult to find any other clues nearby, and it will be useless to stay here.

Song Ci said: "Since this is the case, then let's go back, go to the gambling house, and Miss Xiaoyue will come to us in a while."

The three of them walked on the road, and soon they had come to their destination, there were not many people in the gambling hall today, and there was no sound of Huang Mazi, it seems that yesterday's conversation had an effect.

After waiting for a while, Qin Xiaoyue ran over and gasped: "My lord, I have already found many tailor shops around, and there is no such pants or clothes to repair at all."

Song Ci said: "How many did you run?" The murderer may have had a lot of experience, or he may be a veteran of crime, and he will not leave any clues. “

"What then? This case, isn't it already so decided?"

"That's not it, Wencheng Wenwu, a few of us immediately went to the pharmacy to see the traces of the fabric, but it was dug out with the right hand, and the murderer's wound is likely to be on the side of the thigh, with this evidence, it will be much easier for us to judge the case."
