Chapter 67: The Stone at the Well
Master Li was also angry when he wanted to come, and he didn't want to stay with them, "My lord, please take care of yourself." Master Li left such an angry sentence, and then turned away, without saying a polite word, it seemed that he really angered him.
After Master Li left, and only the people from the Yamen were left here, the second prince finally couldn't hold it back, "When I return to Beijing, I will send someone to investigate, what is the origin of this Master Li, he is so arrogant, not only does he not take me seriously, but even Xiao Pan has never given a good face, who does he think he is?" ”
"If you want to investigate, check it now, it happens to be with the case, and he won't let you enter the house when it's free." Chu Qingli smiled and joked about the banquet.
The second prince gave Chu Qingli a roll of his eyes, "Qingli, I already knew that you couldn't spare people like this." ”
"Hurry up and investigate the case." Xiao Pan said coldly, Chu Qingli seems to have gotten a lot closer to the relationship with the second prince recently.
"Got it."
"Yes."
The second prince and Chu Qingli replied one after another, which responded tacitly, which made the brows on Xiao Pan's face furrow deeper.
Chu Qingli naturally checked the wellhead first, there was no trace of a fight on the side of the well, but it may have been cleaned up in advance by the people of the Li Mansion. What is that? Chu Qingli hid by the well, looking at a bulge on the ground, the shape of this stone seemed to be seen somewhere.
Xiao Pan's eyes swept to Chu Qingli, and seeing that she was staring at the ground, Xiao Pan tilted his head and didn't seem to have anything special. "Qingli, did you find anything?" Did she find something? Chu Qingli has always been careful, as long as there is a little clue, he can't escape her eyes.
Chu Qingli raised her head and turned against the sun, Xiao Pan couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, but the sunshine was caused by the rising sun, so Chu Qingli's body was also full of soft light.
"My lord, this stone always makes me feel familiar, but I can't remember where I have seen it for a while." Chu Qingli's expression became serious, and he was trying to think about where he had seen it, but the more he wanted to remember such a thing, the more difficult it was to remember.
Xiao Pan rolled the wooden wheels of the wheelchair and came to Chu Qingli's side, and saw her serious side face clearly, she pouted, as if she was angry with herself, blaming herself for why she couldn't remember?
"Is it related to this case?" Xiao Pan's voice was gentle, and it slowly entered Chu Qingli's ears.
Chu Qingli rolled his eyes, and after thinking carefully, he nodded, "Well, it should be, otherwise I wouldn't be so familiar." "She has been paying attention to the Li Mansion case for the past two days, and if she wants to say that she has a deep memory, it must be something related to the Li Mansion case.
The case of the Li Mansion only happened yesterday, and what she could seriously understand was the two corpses. "Is it related to the results of the autopsy?"
"Post-mortem results?" Chu Qingli repeated Xiao Pan's words from his mouth, and the appearance of the corpse went over in his mind, "That's right! Chu Qingli suddenly shouted loudly, she was a little excited because she remembered it, and she didn't pay attention to the volume for a while.
Chu Qingli was a little embarrassed, and lowered his voice and said to Xiao Pan: "I remember where I saw it, the thing left in the wound on the forehead of the female corpse is the same material as this stone, and this shape should also match the shape of the wound." ”
However, the stone looked like something that caused the wound on the forehead of the female corpse, but if you look closely, it doesn't look like it. Chu Qingli stretched out his hand to break the stone, originally thought that the time next to the wellhead was buried together when the well was being dug together, and it should be difficult to get it out without any effort, so Chu Qingli used all his strength and broke it hard, but he didn't expect it to be easy to get out, but it was Chu Qingli, because of too much force, he leaned back and fell to the ground.
Xiao Pan was a little panicked, hurriedly stretched out his hand, and asked with concern: "Is there anything wrong with you?" Did you fall somewhere? ”
Chu Qing got up from himself and didn't pull Xiao Pan's hand, Xiao Pan withdrew his hand with some embarrassment. Chu Qingli patted the dust on his clothes and replied with a smile, "My lord, I'm fine." ”
Chu Qingli picked up the stone and looked at the back of the stone There were blood stains, and the place where the blood stains existed happened to coincide with the wound on the female corpse's head, and it seemed that it had indeed hit the head here.
"Look, my lord." Chu Qingli presented the stone to Xiao Pan, "My lord, someone should have found the blood stains on the stone, or the murderer himself broke the stone out and put it back in turn in order to cover up his crime, so I took it out so easily just now." ”
Xiao Pan took the stone, took it in his hand and looked left and right, and then looked at Chu Qingli, "So you mean that the cause of death of the daughter-in-law of the Li family was caused by this stone?" If that's the case, it's possible that she did it accidentally.
Chu Qingli nodded, she really thought so, "Looking at the depth of the wound on the female corpse's head, it should be enough to kill, and the murderer should be afraid that people will find out, so he threw the corpse into the well." ”
"Then why couldn't it be that she accidentally fell on a stone herself, and then happened to fall into the well?" The second prince didn't know when he appeared behind them, didn't he go to the side to search just now? Now he is leaning against a tree, and he does not know when he came.
Chu Qingli turned around and looked at Yan Zizhen, "Impossible, if it is really that I was careless and fell on the stone and died, looking at the distance between the well and the stone, it is impossible to fall directly into the well, and looking at the Li family's family situation, it is a family with a head and a face, and I will not see my daughter-in-law die, but I hurriedly threw it into the well." ”
"The murderer is a man from the house." Xiao Pan opened his mouth leisurely and made up his mind.
"Why?" The second prince wondered in his heart, he had just left for a while, how could he feel that he had missed so much?
Xiao Pan threw the stone on the ground, "First of all, it is unlikely that you can have an argument with her in the mansion, it is unlikely that she is an outsider, and this corpse fell into the well, and the water in the entire mansion is a problem, but I didn't hear the people in the mansion mention this matter, it should be someone who told them not to quote the water in the well recently, so this murderer must be someone in the mansion." ”
"Yes, your analysis is reasonable, it is indeed this reason, so who do you guess?" The second prince was curious.
But Xiao Pan kept silent, "You can't guess when handling a case, if you look at others with preconceived notions, the case will be biased, and you may even be wrongly judged, there is no conclusive evidence, and you can't speculate at will." ”
"If you want me to look at it, maybe it's that Master Li, who looks like he's chattering." The second prince is on a par with Master Li, and no matter how you look at him, he is uncomfortable.
