Chapter 719: The Case of the Corpse of the Awning Boat [I]
[The third watch, the third watch will continue tomorrow]
Putting aside the identity position, Sun Shaozong actually applauded the death of Daoyan's real master and apprentice.
But the master of the 'happy revenge' was instigated by the owner of the black post and sent the corpse to Dali Temple to provoke, which made it difficult for Sun Shaozong to stay out of the matter.
As the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, this case must be solved!
As a young secretary of Dali Temple who has just taken office and is well-known, this case must be solved as soon as possible!
However, he said that after sending Chen Jingde away, Sun Shaozong went into the inner room and briefly checked the case records transferred from Shuntian Mansion.
It turned out that the content was slightly cluttered, and there was a lot of content, which overlapped with the original information.
So Sun Shaozong immediately ordered Liu Xianglian to transfer a few scribes to sort out and compare the records of these cases together, screen out all the things that are not available in Dali Temple, and then classify them so that he can take time to read them.
"Second brother."
Hearing that it was these trivial errands again, Liu Xianglian couldn't help but complain: "Don't you forget, junior brother, I also practice martial arts, and I have been trapped in the case all day long, aren't I blind?" ”
Sun Shaozong rolled his eyes at him, and said angrily: "Go home and ask your mother-in-law, do you want to play with others with knives and guns, or do you want you to handle official business honestly." ”
Liu Xianglian pursed her mouth: "This woman is naturally a Taoist family with long hair and short knowledge, ask her...... Second brother? Second brother! ”
But Sun Shaozong didn't listen to him at all, and went straight out of the official office.
Liu Xianglian chased a few steps behind, and saw that she couldn't catch up—it's hard to tell outside—so she had to return to the house in a huff.
While pondering whether to ask those scribes for help, he wondered suspiciously, could it be that his mother-in-law asked her sister-in-law to blow the pillow wind?
Otherwise, why did the second brother let himself go home and ask her?
…………
No matter which yamen you are in, as long as it is equipped with morgues and servants, it must be located in the most remote place.
Even many local governments like to store the corpses involved in criminal cases in Yizhuang outside the city - the capital is not good, because the area is too large, and it is too troublesome to transport and examine the corpses back and forth outside the city.
Therefore, when they went down to Wanping and Daxing counties, and went up to the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, they all built a separate morgue in the yamen to store the bodies involved in the case.
Get back to business.
Sun Shaozong went out of the official office, and did not rush to the morgue to participate in the autopsy - his current status is not suitable for this task - but first went to the lake to re-examine the traces on the canopy boat.
The result is still not much progress, but it is further confirmed that this is indeed not the scene of the murder, but the place where the body was dumped.
And according to the analysis of the blood stained in the cabin and the degree of rigidity of the corpse, the place of the murder should not be too far from the Dragon King Temple.
Because there was still residual warmth in the chest cavity of the corpse at that time, considering that it was snowing at the time, the time of death should have been within half an hour to an hour.
Judging from the wound, the instrument used to dig out the heart and lungs should be the same handle - that is to say, the murderer has ripped out the hearts of Daoyan's master and apprentice.
Considering that his method of cutting open the chest cavity is very rusty, it should not be too short.
In addition, in broad daylight, the corpse was loaded on the ship and transported to the left side of the Dali Temple - the time to transport the corpse from the first scene to the time on the ship, naturally there was not much left.
If the means of transportation to transport the body can be found, it may be possible to find out the approximate scope of the first murder scene.
In other words, if the murderer is really a beggar, there shouldn't be any means of transportation, right?
Could it be that they killed someone on the shore and then discarded the body......
In this way, Dao Yan's master and apprentice may have disguised themselves as monks and hid in the tidal flats near the Dragon King Temple—a place that is quite desolate and has reeds in them, but it is indeed a good place to hide.
It's just that they never imagined that someone would be able to detect their every move, and it would also attract the revenge of their enemies.
Tut~
Deduction here, I have to be confused by the ability of the owner of the black post.
It's useless to think about it now, so let's take a look at the autopsy first.
After careful inspection and inspection, Sun Shaozong jumped off the canopy boat and rushed to the morgue in the southwest corner.
…………
Compared with the Shuncheon Mansion, where corpses are kept all year round, the morgue here is much more 'deserted', and even the necessary stench is just nothing.
This is a clear proof of sluggish performance!
When Sun Shaozong walked into the coroner's room in Dongshou, Chen Jingde was covering his nose and cowering in the corner with a disgusted expression.
found that Sun Shaozong came in from outside, so he hurriedly put away the veil and stepped forward to salute.
Seeing that it was not enough for him to salute himself, and he had to call the two servants who were busy to come over, Sun Shaozong hurriedly waved his hand and said, "There is no need to be polite in this place, how about it, have you found out something?" ”
The two servants were also sincerely afraid, until Sun Shaozong got closer to take a closer look at the corpse, and then hurriedly explained: "Back to the eldest master, that thin monk, the fatal wound should be a knife in the chest, this huge can't be judged for the time being, but it should be the same." ”
"What about the evidence?"
"There was a puncture wound on the thin back of the back, which penetrated deep into the bone, and it was different from the marks and methods of cutting open the chest, so we deduced that it must have been the mark left by the initial full force of the piercing—and to be able to penetrate such a position has obviously caused a fatal wound."
"Although the shoes were taken off, the shape of the corpse spots generated from the heels suggests that the deceased must have been dragged at one time - lying on his back and his heels on the ground."
"And ......"
Although the morgue of Dali Temple seems to be deserted, these two servants are both shrewd and capable, and even if the level is not as good as Lao Xu of Shuntian Mansion, it should be different.
However, Sun Shaozong did not fully rely on them, and listened to their explanations while observing carefully.
Although he also examined the body that day, the body was still 'fresh' at the time, and some traces were not visible - for example, the dragging corpse spot on the heel was not visible at that time.
Seeing that Sun Shaozong observed carefully, he was not frightened by the disemboweling corpse, and thinking about the reputation of this adult, the two of them gradually became bolder.
"Sir, please see."
One of them picked up a handful of things from the case next to him, and said cautiously: "This is the residue taken out of the stomach of the corpse, it seems that they have just eaten it not long before they died." ”
Although he was bold, he didn't dare to send that thing to Sun Shaozong's eyes, and he was even ready to ask for guilt at any time.
But he was clearly overthinking.
Sun Shaozong has gained a lot of 'knowledge' on the battlefield in the past two years, how can he be afraid of a mess of leftovers?
At the moment, he didn't care about the sour smell, and went to the front to take a closer look.
"Huh? This thing seems to be ......"
And when he looked at it, he really saw the strangeness of the writing!
The yellow, orange, and orange pieces of food that have not had time to digest look like sour and hot dried bamboo shoots - a special dish that I have tasted in Qingxuguan and improved at home!
And looking at these residues, as well as the dogwood fragments stained on them, and some less obvious spices, it is obvious that they are the original hot and sour bamboo shoots.
In this way......
Before the two fake monks died, they even went to Qingxuguan to swagger through the market?
Since they dared to act like this, it was obvious that Dao Yan's master and apprentice were very confident in their disguises, and based on this, they should not take the initiative to hide in the reeds.
Secretly refuting the previous inference, Sun Shaozong immediately ordered: "Deputy Chen Temple, you quickly go to Qingxuguan to the left, find a restaurant called Yingkelai, and inquire about yesterday morning, if there were two monks who ordered their signature dish of sour and hot bamboo shoots." ”
"If there is, first ask them about the time of their appearance, and then go from Qingxuguan to the Dragon King Temple, give me a careful investigation, and be sure to find out the witnesses along the way!" ()
