Seeing the appearance of the corpse, Liu Zhixian and Song Shi were also taken aback! I subconsciously wanted to escape from the door, but I never thought that I would trip over the threshold at once, and both of them fell to the ground!

Xing Zhutou hurriedly helped the two of them up, looking at the two who were so frightened that they almost lost their bodies, Xing Zhutou asked with some puzzlement: "Master, what's wrong with you?"

Liu Zhixian gasped and said, "It's really scared to death!"

"Is there something going on inside?"

"See for yourself!" Liu Zhixian said angrily.

Seeing these two people like this, Xing Zhutou was curious, what scared these two people like this? Could it be a corpse? But no matter how terrifying the corpse is, you will get used to it, and the scene of the serial murder was so bloody at the beginning, and I didn't see these two people scared like this!

Curiosity killed the cat, and when Xing Zhutou walked into the room and saw the corpse, he was almost scared to pee! Hurry up and run out with a rolling belt!

The scene just now made the three of them very frightened, and Liu Zhixian knew that he might have nightmares in the past few days! Thinking of this, Liu Zhixian felt that he was really unlucky! Since last year, the entire Jiangyin has not been very peaceful, either there are dead people here, or there are cases of rebellion there, and almost none of them have stopped! It made him feel very depressed! However, the need to do still has to be done! Now he only hopes that this case will not be the beginning of another series of tragedies......

"Master, what should we do next?" Xing Zhutou asked Liu Zhixian in shock.

Hearing this, Liu Zhixian couldn't help but glance at him, "Do you still need to ask?" Your first day on an errand? Hurry up and find someone! ”

Seeing Xing Zhutou walking in the opposite direction of the county government after going out, Song Shi was speechless...... The old man's face is getting thicker and thicker...... However, in fact, in the final analysis, they can't be blamed, who made the county government immature and difficult to provoke...... When people do things, they instinctively choose the one that is more convenient......

In the small village by the lake, the day's schoolwork has ended, and Shen Huan is busy in the house correcting the children's homework yesterday. In the open space at the door, Xiaohu was reviewing the long fist taught to him by Tie Wushuang under the guidance of Ye Feixue, a harmonious and peaceful scene...... But an uninvited guest just spoiled this atmosphere completely......

Looking at Xing Zhutou's flattering smile, Shen Huan knew that there must be no good thing!

"Tell me, what's going on and you're asking me for help?"

"Brother! Don't say that, I just invited you for a drink, nothing else! ”

Hearing him say this, Shen Huan showed a playful smile, "It's really nothing?" Then I won't send it, I have to correct the children's homework, and the day of this year's autumn exam is getting closer and closer, and I still have to review. What is this wine...... It's better not to drink it! The snow, send ......"

Seeing that Shen Huan really wanted to send off the guest, Xing Zhutou hurriedly said, "Brother! Why do you bother? I'm genuinely here to invite you for a drink! I really didn't mean anything else! ”

"Do you say it or not!" Shen Huan didn't want to continue to entangle with him, so he patted the table and asked.

"I say! I say! Actually, I have something to ask you to help ......."

Simply listening to Xing Zhutou explain the matter, Shen Huan smiled helplessly: "Just say no earlier!" Why pretend! ”

"I'm not afraid of bothering you, brother!" Xing Zhutou seemed to be a little aggrieved and said.

"Are you in less trouble? One duck is catching, two ducks are also catching, it doesn't matter! If you want to ask me for help in the future, don't bother anymore! Let's go! I'll be there tomorrow morning! ”

After getting along for such a long time, Shen Huan also formed a deep friendship with Xing Zhutou, and when he encountered this kind of thing he was good at, he no longer shirked as before, and agreed very happily.

Looking at the various books on Shen Huan's desktop, Xing Zhutou couldn't help but muttered again, "Sometimes I think how good it would be if you were our magistrate!" If there is a murder case again, it really makes our brothers feel much more stable! Hey, seriously, you did well in the imperial examination this time, and you will come back to us after high school, and our brothers are waiting for you! ”

When Shen Huan heard this, he smiled, "Do you think I really want to take the exam?" I lied to you! This fame is like a cloud for me, and I think I'm doing well now! Last time, Liu Zhixian gave me a lot of compensation, which was enough for me to live a down-to-earth life, and it was not interesting to take the test again. ”

Shen Huan didn't tell the truth, which traverser didn't want to enter the court and soar into the sky, and come to a * emperor and prince to change history? But the question is...... He won't ...... anything And the most important point is that Shen Huan also knew that during the period of Wang Anshi's reform, the infighting of court officials, as well as the class struggle between the people and officials, were quite cruel! If you really want to be an official with his character, I'm afraid it won't be long before someone kills you! It's better to be self-aware, not everyone has that kind of life......

Early the next morning, Shen Huan came to the county office. Liu Zhixian wanted to say a few more polite words to him, but he didn't think that Shen Huan didn't want to talk to him, so he took someone to the scene.

When he came to the scene, Shen Huan was stunned for a moment, only to see people coming and going from the Gu Mansion, and at the scene of Miss Gu's death, many people who looked like people were busy inside and out, and from time to time they brought out the same furniture from it and discarded it in the open space in the courtyard at will.

Seeing this, Shen Huan hurriedly shouted, "Hey! Who told you to do this! ”

The roar stopped everyone. Walking into the scene quickly, looking at the mess in the courtyard, Shen Huan was indignant in his heart, "Who made you do this!" Is this the scene of destruction known? ”

The housekeeper of the Gu Mansion saw that it was Shen Huan and Liu Zhixian who came, and hurriedly greeted him: "Shen Gongzi and Master Shen are here, you can't blame us!" This is what my aunt asked us to clean up. ”

"Before the case is solved, I am in a hurry to discard the relics of the deceased, your uncle really loves your young lady enough!"

"This ......" The irony in Shen Huan's words was overflowing, and the housekeeper of the Gu family couldn't hear it, but he didn't know how to answer......

"Where's your old man?" Shen Huan asked again.

"Since the tragic death of the young lady, the lord and the lady have been overly sad and have fallen ill, and now the whole house is taken care of by the uncle." The butler replied truthfully.

"And what about your uncle?"

"Uncle, he went to the restaurant to take care of business."

Hearing this, Liu Zhixian couldn't help but sneer, "Huh! Your young lady has just died, and your aunt still has the heart to do business, they are really loving! ”

"That's it! How you moved out, how did I move back! I'll go see you lord first. Shen Huan instructed the butler.

Walking into the Gu family's bedroom, a strong smell of medicine came to his face, and Gu Yiming, the head of the Gu family, was lying on the bed at the moment, his face was not very good.

Seeing Liu Zhixian coming in, Gu Yiming was about to get up to greet him, but he was persuaded by Liu Zhixian and introduced Shen Huan to him.

Gu Yiming, the name of Shen Huan, had heard about it a long time ago, but he had never seen a real person, so he saw Gu Yiming arch his hand and said: "I have heard of Shen Gongzi's name for a long time, and now I see it really extraordinary."

Shen Huan waved his hand, "Master Gu, we don't need to say polite words, I'll just ask a few questions." ”

"Shen Gongzi, may I ask."

Shen Huan asked, "The night before yesterday, after the banquet dispersed, could anyone stay at home for the night?"

"Yes! Yesterday there were quite a few people who drank high, so I arranged for some of them to stay at home, and some of them I arranged for them to stay in the inn outside. ”

"What time does the banquet end at night?"

Gu Yiming replied: "It's probably around the second watch, there were a lot of people at home yesterday, and we were busy until late before going to bed, I remember when I just lay down on the bed, the people who beat the watch outside knocked on the third watch."

"Did you hear anything that night?"

"No, we haven't had a good rest for a few days because of the little girl's marriage in the past few days, and I fell asleep as soon as I lay down last night and didn't hear anything."

"Are there any people you don't know? Or someone suspicious? Shen Huan asked again.

"Nope! The people who came were all relatives and neighbors from their own families, and they all knew each other! ”

Shen Huan thought for a while: "Can you show me the gift list?"

"Absolutely!" Gu Yiming asked the housekeeper to take the gift list and handed it to Shen Huan.

After a rough flip through it, and put it in his arms, Shen Huan said to Gu Yiming again: "Put the gift list here first, so that it is convenient to check them one by one." Oh, by the way, Master Gu, when I came today, I saw that all the items in the lady's boudoir were discarded in the courtyard, according to the housekeeper, it was my uncle's doing, do you know about this Master Gu? ”

"I know, since this happened, my son-in-law said that he was scared to stay there alone, so he wanted to clean up the room again."

"Oh...... That's it...... But Master Gu, this is the scene of the destruction of the crime, and you can't move around at will until the government has completed the investigation! I have asked them to put it back as it is, please tell your son-in-law that the things in the room must not be touched again! And please tell everyone in the family that no one is allowed to enter the scene until the case is solved! If the son-in-law is really scared, let him find another room. ”

"Okay, I remember." Gu Yiming nodded and agreed.

Shen Huan arched his hand and said: "Thank you Master Gu today, I'll go to see the scene first, Master Gu, please rest assured."

"Mr. Shen, you must catch the murderer and avenge the little girl!"

Just as Shen Huan was about to get up and leave, Gu Yiming suddenly grabbed his hand, and Shen Huan could feel the strength of Gu Yiming's hand, which was very heavy! Before arriving at the Gu family, Shen Huan asked Liu Zhixian about the basic situation of the Gu family. The Gu family used to have two children, and they could be regarded as both children and daughters, but when Gu Yiming was young, his son fell into the river and drowned, and there was only such a daughter left in the family! Now that his daughter is gone like this, the entire Gu family will be wiped out! How could his heart bear it......

After leaving Gu Yiming's bedroom and coming to the scene, the things in the room were basically placed in their original positions, only a few things, and the subordinates really couldn't remember it, so they had to stay there.

Looking at the items left on the ground and the traces left in the room, Shen Huan already knew it in his heart, and said to the servants of the Gu family: "Put the Jun kiln porcelain vase in the southeast corner, the calligraphy and painting on the wall on the left side of the dresser, the chest of drawers in the corner facing the bed, and the two pieces of Xi characters, paste them on the dresser and the table, and give me the paper basket to ......."

"That paper basket is next to the right foot of the desk in the window!"

Shen Huan didn't finish his words when he heard someone say something in the back, and when he looked back, he saw Song Shi biting a toothpick and coming in from outside! Seeing Song Shi's face, Shen Huan asked with a smile, "Why are you here?" Didn't you say that you didn't have time to eat in the county office? How? Finished eating? ”

"I'm done! It's just a little boring, so I'm going to come and see you guys! Don't say it, the dishes in the county government are really good today! After Song Shi finished speaking, he picked out a trace of vegetable leaves from between his teeth, snorted, and spit on the ground, with a look of aftertaste......

"You're idle! You haven't been home for the past two days, and your father is dying! By the way, I ask you, how do you know that thing is on the right leg of your desk? Shen Huan asked a little strangely.

"Uh...... I'm not here to catch the market! Yesterday, I happened to see Liu Zhixian here, so I came to join in the fun, but I didn't expect a murder case! I was there at the time, so I remember it well! ”
