Chapter Forty-Nine: I'm a Principled Man
No matter when or what era, the post-mortem line has always been treated as a very mysterious profession.
The dismemberment of corpses was even more unheard of for this group of ancient people.
Sex. Perceiving the county, dissecting the corpse online.
Think about it, how fresh and exciting, and how eye-catching.
In this world, there is no impermeable wall, and what Cao Xiu did today may soon spread throughout Liyuan County.
And the shock caused by the dissection of the corpse is not only in Liyuan.
As soon as the people who left Yizhuang returned home, they ran to tell each other, and it was in this situation that the news of the arrival of the new magistrate Cao Zhi followed the dissection of Yizhuang's corpse, and it spread rapidly like the exploding fireworks.
People who care, or don't care, who are well-informed, or who are not well-informed, know that they have a very powerful and alternative county magistrate in Liyuan County.
In a dark room, Lei Henggang sat down, as soon as he heard the news, he almost knocked over the medicine in his hand in horror, he coughed a few times in a row, covered his waist, and asked, "Dissect ...... Autopsy? How is it possible, the person surnamed Cao already knows about me? ”
The subordinate who was kneeling on the ground nodded and said: "Yes, it is our new county magistrate, he will not only perform an autopsy, but also dissect the body, what happened in Yizhuang just now has been spread, everyone said, where is this noble son who went south from Bianjing City, it is obviously the Lord of Yama who came out of the Hades Palace." ”
After hearing this, Lei Heng hurriedly said: "Quick, go to the West Wing and ask Mr. Xu to ......."
The subordinate agreed, and when Mr. Xu came over, Lei Heng had already drunk the medicine in the bowl.
When he saw Mr. Xu, he immediately knelt down, two lines of tears had rolled down, and said sadly: "Mr. save me and avenge the fifty-four members of my Lei family." ”
Mr. Xu helped him up and said, "You get up first, the adults are still thinking of a good plan." ”
Lei Heng was excited, "What else do you want?" Kill it! Those people in my family died in order to keep the secrets of adults, and the stand-in was found by me with great difficulty, and I raised him for ten years...... I'm a strong man with a broken wrist, I hope Lord Shen won't bear me. ”
"Presumptuous! Lei Heng, the matter has come to this, what do you want? Do you want to ask adults to kill you? A strong man with a broken wrist? Lord Shen is not also a strong man with broken wrists! Without your Five Ghost Mountain, the adult is half blind in Liyuan, and the adult is also bitter in his heart. ”
Mr. Xu looked at him sharply, "You must know that your life was begged by the old man from the adults with great difficulty, it is best to listen to us obediently, now, you are safe." ”
Lei Heng said: "But when will I be able to do it, I can't wait." ”
"Can't wait, wait."
"Well, at least, at least I have to arrest that treacherous Zhang Zhutou, this kid, I can't wait to break him to pieces."
"Don't worry, you'll be able to see him tonight."
Just when Lei Heng's side was in shock, Cao Xiu had already taken Song Caiwei and them back to the county office.
"My lord, your earth-shattering ability to cry ghosts and gods is really an eye-opener for the lower officials." Along the way, Wang Xiancheng was full of praise for Cao Xiu, giving full play to his dog-licking nature, "In my Great Qi Country, there are many people who can perform autopsies, and those who can dissect corpses are afraid that you are the only one, and it is really an honor for the lower officials to coincide with this meeting!" ”
"Wang Xian praised it." Cao Xiu smiled slightly, "This county has a withdrawn personality since childhood, and is not good at communicating with people, so I am only interested in the study of this criminal name, so I studied it in depth." ”
Wang Xiancheng glanced at him, "Adults seem to have a lot of research on the human body, could it be that the old man who fell at the door of your house was really taught?" ”
Cao Xiu nodded and did not deny it.
Wang Xiancheng immediately gave up, Cao Xiu saw that he was going to say more, and hurriedly said: "By the way, we will go to the county government in front, Wang Xiancheng will take us to Song Zhixian's study first." ”
Song Yuanming, the former magistrate of the county, died at the door of his office study at that time.
Seeing this, Wang Xiancheng looked at Song Caiwei behind Cao Xiu again, and immediately understood the situation, but said, "My lord just finished the autopsy, will you be too tired to go at this time?" ”
"I'm a little tired, but I still have to go......" Cao Xiu glanced at Song Caiwei, Song Caiwei lowered her head, and was very grateful to Cao Xiu in her heart.
Wang Xiancheng didn't say much, and when a group of people arrived at the county office, they immediately took Cao Xiu to Song Yuanming's study.
In fact, during the time of Song Zhixian's death, there were countless works and case solving masters who came to this room, so there was not much worth studying here, but Wang Xiancheng and others still kept the study, except for the place that was destroyed by those who solved the case, it basically did not change much.
Cao Xiu also knew that he couldn't see anything for the first time, he just came to familiarize himself with the scene.
"Before Lord Song died, didn't anything special happen?"
Cao Xiu walked into the study, looked at the furnishings of the study on the one hand, and asked Wang Xiancheng who was following closely behind him.
The layout of the study was simple, there was a bed for resting on the east side, and a table on the west side, and behind the table there was a large bookcase, and the bookcase and the desk were empty, and it was obvious that everything on them should have been sealed.
Wang Xiancheng listened to Cao Xiu's words and said: "In the three months before the incident, Song Zhixian had been busy, and he didn't even care about eating and sleeping, all day long, either outside, or in the public court, or in this study, on the night of the incident, nothing strange happened, but after Lord Zhixian came back from attending the dinner in Shen Mansion, his spirit was a little wrong......
Cao Xiu said: "You mean Shen Mansion? ”
Wang Xiancheng: "That's right, but it's nothing, it's just that the magistrate drank too much, and afterwards, someone went to the Shen Mansion to check, and Lord Shen cooperated throughout the process, but he couldn't find anything." ”
Cao Xiu was skeptical: "Could it be poisoned?" ”
Wang Xiancheng thought for a while and said: "It's not impossible, it's just that at that time, the servants tried it in various ways, but they didn't find the phenomenon of poisoning." ”
"Dissect the corpse!"
Wang Xiancheng smiled and said: "Dissecting corpses, in this world, I am afraid that only adults will you." ”
"Uh, okay......"
Cao Xiu touched his head, and soon, a servant came over to say that the wine and food had been prepared in the back hall, and invited Cao Xiu and the five of them to come over for dinner.
After waiting for the meal, Cao Xiu resigned from Wang Xiancheng and lived in the backyard of the county government.
In the backyard, Zhang Hu and Wu often went to the kitchen to boil water, they just moved in, there were no maids, not even the cook who cooked, it seemed that they had to do it themselves for a while.
Cao Yingying means that Cao Xiu will take care of their three meals a day in the future, but Cao Xiu is a county magistrate, and he is afraid that he will not even have time to rest all day long, so they really want to buy some maids and cooks.
However, these are all small things, and the most important thing now is how to catch Lei Heng.
Even if you don't arrest him, I'm afraid that Lei Heng may come to the door by himself.
In this regard, in the front hall of the courtyard, Song Caiwei was a little worried about Cao Xiu's safety, and suggested: "Otherwise, let Wu Chang or Zhang Hu sleep on the collapse of your front room every night, so that you can be better protected." ”
Cao Xiu thought for a while and said, "Aren't they too tired in this way?" If you have to keep vigil and protect me, I think it's better to forget it. ”
"No, no, that's it...... I had to take turns with the warbler. ”
"What? How can this work, you promise, I won't agree, this is about a man's dignity, let a girl's family sleep in my room, don't you worry? ”
Cao Xiu waved his hand, "Tell you, you're not worried, I'm still worried, I, Cao Xiu, am a principled person, and if I don't sleep, I won't sleep......"
