Chapter 60: The Murder of the Restaurant
In the study of Liyuan County and Zhixian County, Cao Xiu, who had changed into civilian clothes, sat at his desk and wrote to refill the file of Song Zhixian.
As soon as Wang Xiancheng heard that there was a new development in Song Zhixian's case, he rushed back from outside the city non-stop, he stood at the table, and watched Cao Xiu write the six words "died from burning iron nails", and sighed in his heart, "My lord, you are really a god......man
Cao Xiu glanced at him speechlessly, "Wang Xiancheng, can you stop saying this in the future?" ”
Wang Xiancheng was puzzled: "Why? ”
Cao Xiu pursed his mouth, "Anyway, I'm not so godly, I don't get tired of saying this every day, I don't get tired of listening to it, and I'm tired of listening to it." ”
Wang Xiancheng: "Okay, but my lord, you are really smart, in just one day, you found out the cause of death that people with more than ten years of experience can't find out, if this matter spreads, it will definitely cause a sensation in the entire Jiangning Mansion......"
"It's just luck."
Cao Xiu shook his hand, "Moreover, what kind of sensation is not sensational, the county doesn't care, by the way, the night Song Zhixian died, who in the county government went to the study to see him?" ”
Wang Xiancheng curled his hand and pointed his finger, "It is written in the dossier that no one dares to hide this kind of thing." ”
Cao Xiu glanced at Wang Xiancheng and said, "It said that Wang Xiancheng also went to see Song Zhixian that night, I wonder if any suspicious characters were found?" ”
The murderer did it during the period before Liu E was driven away by the man in black and turned back.
Liu E went back and forth for a total of one hour, that is, two hours.
The file said that during this time, Wang Xiancheng, Lin Zhushu and Zhang Zhutou had successively approached Song Zhixian, so the three of them were very suspicious.
Wang Xiancheng touched his beard, thought for a while, and said: "There were no suspicious characters at that time, Xia Guan was the first to go to see the county magistrate, and when he came out, he happened to meet Master Lin, who could testify, as for Zhang Zhutou, Xia Guan did not know." ”
Zhang Zhutou was the last person to see Song Zhixian, and the suspicion was the greatest, Cao Xiu thought that the probability of the Shen family killing people was very small, but now that he looks at it, he may not.
This case is still in the fog, and they have to slowly explore it again, at this time, Cao Xiu suddenly said: "By the way, how did the group of demon monks handle it last time?" I remember when I was in prison, I didn't see them......"
Wang Xiancheng said: "They have all been exiled for 3,000 miles, and three of them have been sentenced to death, and the file has been sent to the Criminal Department, and the lower officials will reply soon." ”
Cao Xiu bowed his head and continued: "In this case, the group of abducted women have all been recovered?" ”
Wang Xiancheng said: "Thanks to the adult's sentence that the official is not in charge of the people, it is better to go home and sell bamboo rats." This sentence, for the lower officials, is like a stick in the head, the lower officials dare not slack off, since the day of the accident, has been busy with this matter, although sometimes those people in the village are forced to be anxious, wielding hoes to kill the lower officials, but the lower officials still stubbornly rescued the girls who were sold, so far, there are still two women who have not been rescued, but the lower officials will do their best. ”
Cao Xiu stood up and arched his hand: "Wang Xiancheng has worked hard. ”
Wang Xiancheng said with a smile: "It's all for the people, and it's not hard work." ”
Cao Xiu didn't know what to think, and the conversation changed, "By the way, I remember that when I first arrived in Liyuan, Uncle Liu from Wang Xiaomei's village said that there were many cases of missing women in Liyuan County, and the batch of Pufu Temple was just one of them, so the others, are there any clues?" ”
Wang Xiancheng's face turned red, and he said apologetically: "I'm really ashamed, if it weren't for the adults to find out where Wang Xiaomei was being held, the lower officials and others wouldn't know that there was a problem with the Pufu Temple." ”
Cao Xiu said: "Okay, but there doesn't seem to be a similar incident recently. ”
Wang Xiancheng: "Maybe it's because of the case of the Pufu Temple, the other thieves don't dare to do it." ”
Just as Cao Xiu and Wang Xiancheng were talking about the kidnapping case of a woman in Liyuan County, someone came from under the corridor.
It is the official of the county government.
"Report to the two adults, there was a murder case in the drunken immortal building in the east of the city."
It's business.
Wang Xiancheng asked, "What about County Lieutenant Ding, did he go?" ”
The official said: "The county lieutenant is still outside the city, and he has not been able to come back for a while. ”
Cao Xiu said solemnly: "Let's go and take a look." ”
……
Cao Xiu and Wang Xiancheng went all the way to Zuixianlou.
The deceased was the owner of Seongdong Buzhuang, and when he was found, he was lying in the guest room of the restaurant.
The boss's surname is Ma, because he is a frequent visitor to the Zuixian Building, and he generally likes to stay overnight, so the people in the restaurant didn't care at first.
In the morning, when the restaurant guy went upstairs and knocked on the door, no one answered, because Boss Ma usually likes to get up late, but at noon, at eleven o'clock, before the person woke up, the people in the restaurant thought that something might have happened.
As soon as he knocked the door open, he found Boss Ma lying on the ground, bleeding to death.
Boss Ma, Ming Teng, is in his forties, fat, white-faced, and wears a crimson robe.
"It's arsenic...... Song Caiwei saw Cao Xiu hurriedly walking out of the study, and also followed him, at this moment she picked up the wine glass on the table, sniffed it lightly, and judged the cause of death of the deceased.
Then, she turned into a maid, squatted beside Ma Teng, and examined it carefully.
Outside the guest room, there were many onlookers, and some people pointed at Song Caiwei, who was conducting an autopsy, "Who is this little girl?" How bold is it to dare to touch the corpse......"
"And the deceased is still a man, this woman is indecent."
"It's immoral, it's really immoral, how will she marry in the future......"
The piercing voices came into Song Caiwei's ears one by one, but she turned a deaf ear.
Cao Xiu in the room naturally wouldn't let his little girl be wronged, he glanced at Wang Xiancheng.
Wang Xiancheng understood and instructed the officials gathered outside the door, "Drive them all out......
After giving the order, when he turned around, he persuaded Cao Xiu: "My lord, Miss Song is like this, it is indeed a little inappropriate." Song Ci of Yizhuang, the lower officials have already sent someone to invite, why don't we wait? ”
Cao Xiu said: "What are you waiting for, this county believes in Miss Song's ability very much, she will be my assistant in the future." ”
"Assistant?" Wang Xiancheng was stunned, and felt that Cao Zhixian in front of him was a little different.
Cao Xiu touched his nose and said, "Yes, in the future, she will do everything about the autopsy." ”
Wang Xiancheng said: "What about Song Ci?" ”
Cao Xiudao: "It's the same, isn't it good to have two servants in a county?" Of course, Miss Song only follows me, she is my assistant......"
Wang Xiancheng nodded and didn't say anything more.
At this time, Song Caiwei stood up and said: "The corpse spots of the deceased are not obvious, but the corpse stiffness has spread all over the body. The time of death should have been between midnight and midnight last night. ”
Cao Xiu was trembling as the shopkeeper of the restaurant on his side, "Who did the deceased see last night?" ”
The shopkeeper's surname is Qian, and the shopkeeper said: "I didn't see anyone either, it was the Lanxiang girl from Wanhualou, she didn't leave until the hour, but at that time, Boss Ma went out to deliver it in person." ”
