Another half a month has passed, and it is the busiest and happiest season of the year for the farmer. At this time, the rice fields on both sides of the village are golden, and the full ears of rice have fallen, and it is harvest season!

The autumn rains in the south of the Yangtze River often come with the rhythm of rice ripening, and everyone in the village knows that the rainy season will be in a few days, so every household helps each other to collect the ripe rice from the field as quickly as possible and dry it in good weather, so as to ensure the food ration of the whole family for a year. In this season, in addition to the whole village being unable to move, even the children have to go to the field to help out, so Shen Huan's primary school can only temporarily suspend classes......

In the past few days, the children are not there, and they are idle again, although he Shen Huan also has land, but he handed it over to Song Yi's family long before his father died, although the title deed is still in his hands, but the grain in the field has nothing to do with him, after the autumn harvest every year, he only needs to take out the part from it that is enough for his own consumption. Although he is a bit like a landlord, he is not the same thing as a landlord at all, and he has never thought of getting the land back. One is that he is the only one in his family, and the whole family is not hungry! The second is that no matter whether he is before or after the crossing, no matter what life he is, he is just the child who follows his parents' butts and watches the farming, and at most he will pick up two nail rakes to help turn over a few square meters of land! Third, it can also make Song Shi's family live a better life, with food storage, even if there is a famine, they can survive it smoothly! There is food in your hand and you don't panic! This is also the truest idea of people's life in this era!

This person is easy to get bored when he is idle, but he doesn't have a mobile phone computer and WiFi to pass the time, so Shen Huan can only learn from the ancients and sages, go out fishing during the day, and drink a little wine at night to pass this boring time...... But soon, something that made Shen Huan worry appeared, people said that fishing is addictive, and some addicted people can bring a purple light to the tuyere to fish on the night of the cold winter wax moon! But he tragically found out that he didn't have this addiction! I just feel very irritable......

After two days of fishing, Shen Huan couldn't stay in the village anymore, so he decided to go out for a walk, and just like that, he came to the county seat.

The harvest of new rice has made many more food stalls on the streets of Jiangyin City, which are all kinds of rice snacks made of new rice.

In the blink of an eye, it was noon, but Shen Huan didn't feel hungry, and looked at the sky, it was almost time to go back, and he staggered slowly along the way, and he could almost get home before dusk! However, at this time, the crowd gathered in front of him caught his attention......

The place where the crowd gathered seemed to be a family in the city, and although the door was already full of people, there were still pedestrians walking towards it.

When he came to the periphery of the crowd, there were so many onlookers that Shen Huan couldn't see what was going on inside, but from the discussion of the onlookers and the faint crying from the courtyard, he still knew that there seemed to be a dead person inside......

"Homicide?"

Shen Huan couldn't help but scold himself for being a crow's mouth when he thought of these two words, where is there such a coincidence in this world? If you go anywhere, you will have a murder case, isn't this similar to the Grim Reaper elementary school student in the anime? It won't take two or three years for the people in this city to die......

didn't want to be troubled, Shen Huan left here directly after a while, but he just walked not far, but he returned here very helplessly...... It's not that he wants to come back, but he was caught by someone else! And the person who arrested him turned out to be the group of fast catchers in the yali of Jiangyin County......

Looking at the group of catchers who were smiling flatteringly at him, Shen Huan beat a drum in his heart, "Brother Catcher, what do you want to do?" ”

"Huh...... Mr. Shen, the brothers were anxious just now, didn't hurt you, right? Don't be surprised! In fact, we invited you back just to ask Mr. you to do the brothers a favor...... "head-catching" smiled friendlyly, and people who didn't know thought that Shen Huan was his relative......

Looking left and right, and then at the corpse that was still hanging on the beam, Shen Huan immediately understood, "Oh...... You want me to help you solve the case, don't you? Excuse me! Not available! You should go to Liu Zhixian! ”

After saying that, Shen Huan got up and was about to leave, but the head catcher hurriedly grabbed him, "Don't go!" It's not that we don't want to look for Liu Zhixian, but Liu Zhixian went to the nearby villages and towns early in the morning to count the autumn harvest! He's not in the county office! ”

"Then you can just find the county governor or the county lieutenant! What's the call of arresting me?! ”

"The county is also out! Today, the county lieutenant was supposed to take charge of county affairs, but I didn't expect him to ...... last night He...... Belch...... Anyway, if I can find them, why should I find you! ”

Looking at the way he wanted to talk and stopped, Shen Huan had already guessed seven or eight points in his heart, it was impossible for the county lieutenant to burp, it was estimated that he had done some "good thing" last night, and he couldn't get up today......

"Ouch! Mr. Shen, will you help the brothers this time? When the matter is over, my brother will invite you to drink! What do you think! ”

Looking at the sincerity of the head catcher, and the fierce expressions of the rest of the catchers, in such a situation of both soft and hard, Shen Huan could only agree, "Okay, but let me make it clear in advance, I didn't take the initiative to meddle in the criminal case, if the county master is to blame, I will say that you forced me to do this." ”

"Okay! All you have to do is solve the case! What's the matter, brother bears it for you! The head catcher patted his chest and said cheerfully.

Even though he had already agreed, Shen Huan had no choice but to eliminate the distractions in his mind and investigate the scene. The scene of this case is an ordinary town resident's family, first of all, Shen Huan can be sure that this family is very poor, there is almost no decent furniture, the furnishings in the house are very simple, only a table with a basket of eggs on it and two benches, it can be seen that this should be a family of two!

Secondly, the owner of this house should be a father and son, except for the deceased hanging on the beam of the house is an old man, the house is very sloppy, and even the only square table for eating is covered with dust and oil stains, obviously it has not been scrubbed for a long time, if there is a woman at home, with the woman's more clean character, it is absolutely impossible for such a situation! And what provides conclusive evidence for these speculations is that the two clothes that are drying outside the house are only men's and not women's!

In addition to the very strong smell of medicine in the house and the casserole used to decoct medicine on the earthen stove in the courtyard, there are also overturned medicine bowls and their drug residues in the house where the deceased is located!

Looking down at the ground, Shen Huan found that there were many footprints on the dusty ground in the house, but many of them were actually left by the catchers in the county office! The marks are very messy! Seeing such a situation, Shen Huan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, so many people rushed into the scene recklessly, and many precious on-site evidence was destroyed like this! It's a shame! But he couldn't blame them, after all, the current fast catching tolerance has not yet been aware of protecting the scene......

One of the two benches in the room had left its original position and fell at the feet of the deceased, and from this situation, the deceased did look like he had committed suicide by hanging himself on the beam of the house with this bench, but when the bench was erected, the bench was a foot away from the deceased's feet!

"Unload!"

Shen Huan instructed the catchers to unload the body from the beam, but just as he was about to perform the autopsy, he suddenly remembered something and asked the catcher: "Brother catcher, what about the clerk in your yamen and the clerk in charge of recording in the county yamen?" Shouldn't I do the autopsy and record-keeping for me? ”

"Uh...... They all went back to harvest rice...... "The head-hunting is also quite helpless......

Hearing this, Shen Huan's feet softened, and he was almost killed by lightning! Boy! For the sake of an autumn harvest, almost all the people in the county have left, and the only one in charge may still be in bed now! If something big happens and is blamed by the higher-ups, the Jiangyin County Ya may be served even the pot......

"Forget it! Never mind! Help people to the end! In that case, it's up to you to record it! Shen Huan shook his head speechlessly......

"Test! The male corpse, thin, about 65 years old, had multiple scratches on the skin of the corpse, and the clothes were damaged, which was suspected to be caused by tearing and scratching with others! Examine! The deceased's hands were scattered, and there were dandruff and blood stains in his fingernails! Examine! The corpse's mouth and eyes were open, his hair was scattered, his eyes were pinpoint-sized bleeding spots, his mouth was smelling of medicine, and his tongue was not touching his teeth. Examine! The neck of the corpse had strangulation marks, one was dark purple, the other was blue and white, and they were one foot four inches and one foot long. ”

After the head catcher finished making a record, Shen Huan got up and patted the dust on his body, and asked the head catcher: "By the way, Brother Head catcher, since you have already arrived here, then someone should have reported the case?" Where is the informant now? ”

"The informant is the neighbor of the deceased, and he is waiting outside!" The head catcher replied truthfully.

"What did the informant say at the time?"

The informant said that he felt very strange when he saw the door of the family open, because their house is always closed on weekdays, but today it has been open since the morning, and he looked at the yard and saw that there was no one in the yard, so he was worried about whether there was something wrong with the sick old man of the family, so he walked in to take a look, and then found that the old man had hanged himself! So he hurried to the county office to report the case! ”

"And whose basket of eggs is on this table? Is it the one who reported the crime? Shen Huan asked again.

"That's not it, this basket of eggs was put on it when the deceased's son returned!"

"The man who wept in the yard all the time is the son of the deceased?" Shen Huan pointed to the man who had been crying and said.

"Yes! That's right! ”

"That's right! Come on! Arrest them! ”

Seeing that Shen Huan patted him on the shoulder and was about to leave, the head catcher hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and asked suspiciously, "Arrest someone?" Who are you arresting? ”

"Of course it's the unfilial son of the deceased! Who else but him! ”
