"Don't worry, I'll do my best to investigate, now take us to see the corpse first."

In this way, Sister Qiao took the people from the yamen to her home.

On the way back, she was still crying, "A few days ago, he was going to go far away, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen, how can I live in the future!" ”

"Do you think the killer could be who?" Shen Lian looked at Sister Qiao, who was crying, and asked.

"I don't know."

Sister Qiao shook her head, "He is usually very kind, and he has never offended anyone, I really can't imagine who would do such a thing." ”

After that, she sobbed quietly again.

This made Shen Lian not have a good impression of her, and felt that she was a little too pretentious.

It is reasonable for her to be sad and sad when something like this happened to her husband, but her performance was inevitably too conspicuous, as if she was deliberately showing.

It is not unheard of in the past to encounter such a case, although the family of the victim, although sad and sad, but when assisting in the investigation, they will not cry all the time like this.

Just when Shen Lian had this kind of disgust, Sister Qiao, who was walking aside, suddenly opened her mouth again.

"I wonder if my husband didn't leave at all, but stayed at home, but accidentally fell into the well, which is also a possibility."

"How is this possible?" The peasant woman next to her directly refuted, not believing her statement.

The two of them are next to each other, so there are some situations that they still know better, so naturally they don't believe that the person has fallen into the well.

However, after saying this, the peasant woman didn't say anything more, and Shen Lian hurriedly asked, "Why are you so sure that people don't commit suicide?" Why is it assumed that he was killed? ”

"Because the wellhead is a cut above the ground, even if you accidentally fall, it is impossible to fall into it, there will be no such situation, and Brother Zhuangzi fell inside without clothes, how can anyone go out naked?" Based on these two points alone, it can basically be concluded that this man's death was not an accident, but was killed by someone.

Sister Qiao had been trying to link this matter with the accident just now, and wanted to deliberately disturb their sight, which also made Shen Lian have a trace of doubt in her heart.

Was it really unintentional, or was it intentional? It was from this time that Shen Lian had a trace of suspicion about her, although she had not seen the corpse yet, she already had such a preliminary impression.

In this kind of incident, the murderer is a familiar person around the deceased, and as the wife of the deceased, it is possible for her to do so.

The people around him will be caught off guard when they suddenly start, and no one would have expected the person next to the pillow to do such a thing.

Of course, all this is just speculation, and there is no evidence to prove it, and further investigation is needed to get more clues.

In this way, they soon arrived at Sister Qiao's house.

When I entered the courtyard, I immediately saw the well in the garden not far away.

Originally, Sister Qiao wanted to take them over to see, but Shen Lian directly refused, "It's good for you to stay here first, just a few of us can go over and watch." ”

In this way, Shen Lian, Yin Chen, and the prefect Chu Xi went over to check together.

When walking over, Shen Lian deliberately paid attention to it, the wellhead was so high, even if a person fell, he would not fall, unless someone deliberately pushed it down.

When they reached the well, the three men poked their heads out and looked inside, and sure enough, there was a corpse, unclothed, floating on the water in a lying position.

"Come on, ...... this corpse" After seeing the corpse, Chu Xi originally planned to directly let people get the corpse, but was directly stopped by Shen Lian.

"Wait!" Her eyes still fell on the corpse at the bottom of the well, and she looked at it carefully, and the more she looked at it, the more strange she felt.

Seeing her like this, Yin Chen asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" Is there anything new to discover? ”

"Take a closer look and see if there are any obvious features on this corpse."

After she said this, Yin Chen and Chu Xi lay at the mouth of the well and looked carefully inside, but after looking at it for a long time, they found nothing.

"There's nothing strange about this corpse, and it doesn't have any features, what are you letting us see?" Chu Xi asked puzzled.

"You also saw that this corpse did not have any obvious features, and the face of this corpse was also facing downward, so you can't see it at all, so the question is, how did the two people who reported the case conclude that the deceased was the strong brother in their mouths?" After hearing her words, Chu Xi and Yin Chen suddenly realized.

This is indeed a strange thing, and it also made Yin Chen and the others look directly at the peasant woman and Sister Qiao.

Being stared at by them like this suddenly made Sister Qiao's expression a little unnatural, but it quickly returned to normal.

Shen Lian whispered to them, "Don't startle the snake first, don't salvage the corpse first, find a few neighbors who live nearby, I have something to do." ”

In this way, Chu Xi instructed his subordinates to find nearby neighbors, and after they came, they were taken directly to the garden, and Shen Lian asked them to take a look at the corpses in the well.

After reading it, they all had the same reaction, that is, fear, but other than that, they didn't know who the people inside were.

This is the most deserved reaction, and the peasant woman and Sister Qiao can determine who the person here is, which is very boring, and it also makes their suspicion rise a lot rapidly.

Instead, he was suspicious, but Shen Lian didn't say anything.

After all, there were only two people who found out that there were entities in the well at that time, Sister Qiao and the peasant woman, if both of them had something to do with this matter, then they would have discussed it before, and if they were questioned at this time, maybe they would respond with the same excuse.

So Shen Lian decided to hold on to the ground first, and then look for it, will there be any other evidence to prove all this.

If a person wants to quibble, he can find any ridiculous reason, but without full evidence, even if the suspicion is very appropriate, it is useless.

After dismissing all the neighbors who were watching around the well, Shen Lian, Yin Chen, and the prefect Chu Xi began to discuss what to do next? Yin Chen first briefly said his thoughts, and his analysis was very reasonable, and he was the Tao.

"I think there is a lot of suspicion in the two people who found the bodies in this case, the two are neighbors, but whether they are related to this case, there is no way to determine, but I am more inclined to this possibility."

After hearing his words, Shen Lian nodded, and then looked at Chu Xi, wanting to ask him what he thought.

"What do you think, sir?" After bowing his head and pondering for a moment, Chu Xi raised his head, looked at Shen Lian.

Because he himself is not particularly good at analyzing the facts of the case, he has no way to be particularly sure of his guesses, but only speculates in the direction of various possibilities.

"I think so, this Sister Qiao said that her husband went out a few days ago, but was found dead in the well, which involves a very important question, that is, whether this well is often used, if it is often used, then it should not be found out today If it is not used often, you have to think about this problem in a different way."

After a pause, Chu Xi continued.

"I think we have to discuss why Sister Qiao's husband didn't leave, first determine what the purpose of his going out is, whether it is reasonable, as far as I know, their family is not engaged in anything at all, and the business has always been farming, so there are still some doubts about going out."

After he said this, Shen Lian suddenly realized that this was indeed a very important issue.

Ordinary people don't need to go far at all, and besides, their family is farming, what do they need to do? And according to Sister Qiao, it takes her husband more than ten days to go out, which is even more strange, and it will depend on whether Sister Qiao can give a reasonable explanation.
