The time soon came to noon, but before Chen Xiaoting took the initiative to look for it, Huang Dinghai found it.

"Lord Huang, but there is a clue?" Chen Xiaoting asked with a smile.

Huang Dinghai's face was serious at this time, and he said in a deep voice: "Chen Baihu, I really found out some problems!" ”

"Just now, there is news from below, and it has been found that there are four craftsmen who died suddenly after a short period of wealth!"

When he heard the first half of the sentence, Chen Xiaoting was quite happy in his heart, thinking that things had made great progress.

But Huang Dinghai's later words made Chen Xiaoting's heart cold for a while, and he had no intention of interrogating others at this time.

"Sudden death? When was this? Chen Xiaoting asked.

"According to the people below, some of these four people died two years ago, three years ago...... And five years ago and six years ago! ”

Hearing this, Chen Xiaoting's expression was even darker, this era is inevitably too long.

"Let's go check it out!" Chen Xiaoting finally said, after all, it was a little clue that was found, although now it seems to be broken again.

Huang Dinghai has no objection to this, he is actually very curious about it, since he has been involved in this case, he also wants to find out.

So, the two of them rode to the scene.

When he came to the home of the craftsman who died the latest, Chen Xiaoting asked his family some words.

Later, Chen Xiaoting learned that the artisan had received a large sum of money two years ago, and his family did not know where the money came from, and it may be precisely because of this that he was able to survive.

But whether these craftsmen died unexpectedly is still uncertain for Chen Xiaoting, so he finally said to Huang Dinghai: "Lord Huang, I think it's better to conduct an autopsy!" ”

"It's been two years since I died, what else can I detect?"

"Unless...... It's poisoning! Huang Dinghai patted his head and said.

Chen Xiaoting nodded, he also thought so, if he died of poisoning, even if only bones were left, it could be detected.

Immediately, they rushed to the outside of the city, where there was a special cemetery, where most of the poor people in the city were buried.

Looking at the small grave bag in front of him, Chen Xiaoting said to the left and right: "Dig up!" ”

Then the shovel picked up by the captain and worked the graveyard, and it took less than half an hour for the graveyard to be completely excavated.

It's just these people, otherwise ordinary people really can't do the work of digging people's graves.

"Open the coffin!" Chen Xiaoting ordered in a deep voice.

The lieutenants directly used their knives to pry at the same time in four directions, and the rotten coffin was opened.

Before the coffin was pried open, the captains lifted the lid of the coffin, and one of the captains went down to the grave, and he was specially examined.

After a while, the lieutenant shouted, "My lord, this man must have died of poisoning!" ”

Hearing this, Chen Xiaoting and Huang Dinghai immediately surrounded them, and Chen Xiaoting even jumped into the grave himself.

Sure enough, under the guidance of the captain beside him, Chen Xiaoting saw the bones and abdomen of the corpse in the coffin, and its bones were all black.

Covering his mouth and nose, Chen Xiaoting only determined something at this time.

Since he was killed, it means that this person has something to do with the counterfeit case, so it is unlikely that other officials of the Mint Department will be involved.

"Now, it depends on whether the other corpses were also killed!" Chen Xiaoting to Huang Dinghaidao.

Just now, the captains who inspected found two craftsmen who died after getting rich, which pointed out the direction to Chen Xiaoting.

But the problem is that these people have been dead for too long, and even if he wants to check something, it is difficult for him to go any further.

"Chen Baihu rest assured, it won't be long before news comes, and the official has already ordered them to go down and let them examine the other corpses!"

However, the situation is still not optimistic, because it is still difficult to find accurate clues if you want to find out the case.

At this time, Chen Xiaoting still had to sigh that this was the most difficult case he had encountered, and it was as difficult as chasing after the wind.

It's no wonder that a powerful character like Huang Ting has been busy for a month, and he has no clue about it.

Now that he has only been investigating for a few days, Huang Ting has persisted for a month, and his perseverance is not strong.

After a while, several other bodies were found, and after examination, these people were poisoned and died.

Now Chen Xiaoting can really be sure that it is these dead craftsmen who stole the molds from the mint workshop and handed them over to other craftsmen to copy.

So how do you continue to look down? Where do I find clues?

"Lord Chen, maybe we can start with the poison!" Huang Dinghai said.

Chen Xiaoting nodded and motioned for him to continue.

Huang Dinghai continued: "It is a medicine with three poisons, no matter what kind of poison it is, generally speaking, its raw materials are purchased from pharmacies!" ”

"Let's first check the poison in the corpse, and then go directly to the major pharmacies to check ......"

Speaking of this, Huang Dinghai himself couldn't continue, because this method was not feasible at all.

First of all, there are many pharmacies in the capital, and it is a problem where to check, and secondly, because too much time has passed, there is no way to check it down.

At this time, the county became very quiet, and it was even more desolate under the slanting sun.

Just when Chen Xiaoting was feeling very difficult, he heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and looked up to see that it was a captain who was rushing to the horse.

When the lieutenant rushed to the front of everyone, jumped off his horse and said loudly: "Two adults, just now the subordinates and others have verified according to the head, and the whole family of a craftsman on Sanping Street has been killed, and the subordinates have specially come to report it!" ”

Although it is not strange that people died in the capital, such a situation where the whole family was killed is an extremely rare vicious incident.

"The whole family was killed? When was this? Chen Xiaoting hurriedly asked.

The lieutenant who came to deliver the message hurriedly replied, "My lord, according to the speculation of his subordinates...... It must have happened last night! ”

"Speculation? Does this man's neighbor not know? Chen Xiaoting asked rhetorically.

"My lord, it wasn't until my subordinates and others went to check their identities that they found that their family was all dead!"

"They don't know that their neighbors don't know about it, and the people who want to kill people are very powerful, or they know people!"

Hearing this, Chen Xiaoting showed a hint of a smile, and only heard him say: "The murderer's methods are indeed powerful, and he must also be his acquaintance!" ”

Because it is very likely that the person who killed this craftsman was the same person who handed over the mold to him in the first place.

"Let's go, let's see!" Chen Xiaoting's eyebrows danced.

The whole family was killed last night, and there will be more clues left at the scene, so Chen Xiaoting has to hurry over.

Huang Dinghai thought deeply about this, so he and Chen Xiaoting rode on their horses and rushed to Sanping Street.

Don't look at Chen Xiaoting happy at this time, but he is also very worried in his heart, if there are still no clues on Sanping Street, what should he do?

His father-in-law, Shen Yue, is still waiting for his good news.

For the first time, Chen Xiaoting felt that the capital was difficult to mix!
