Chapter 199: Murder (I)
"Who was the first to find the body?" Yang Yaozong looked at the corpses of the Turks huddled on the ground. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Returning to the Prophet, it is small...... The first of the small discoveries. A man dressed like a shopkeeper lowered his head and shrunk in a whisper. I saw that the face of the shopkeeper was pale, and he looked frightened.
On the way to the scene of the crime, Yang Yaozong had already informed Yin Ruxin, Liao Qiniang and Mu Qinghan that a Turkic merchant had been killed in the inn room that Yin Ruxin had just opened, and the three women were surprised. But what worries Yang even more is that this is the second Turkic merchant killed this month.
When he arrived at the inn, Yang Yaozong was a little relieved to see that the room where the crime occurred had been guarded by the officials. When the first Turkic merchant was killed, the scene of the crime was chaotic, and a lot of evidence could not be collected, which made Yang Yaozong very annoyed. For this reason, Yang Yaozong ordered all the officials to guard the scene of the crime as soon as they discovered it, and no one was allowed to enter or leave the scene at will, and to touch anything at the scene of the crime without authorization. It is necessary to keep the scene of the crime as it is as it is, and only after the adult and the servant in charge of solving the crime arrive at the scene and obey the orders and commands before taking action.
Yang Yaozong walked to the door and looked at the shopkeeper and frowned, "Don't be nervous, let me ask you, how did you find the body?" ”
"Back to the Prophet, the Turk who lives here is named Chadugan, and he is a merchant. When he came back at noon, he ordered the little one to prepare some food and drink and bring them to his room. When the little one brought the food and drinks, he knocked on the door and no one answered, and he found that the door was hidden. So he gently pushed the door open, and found Chadugan lying on the table, as if asleep. ”
Shopkeeper peeked at Chadugan who was lying on the ground, hurriedly turned his gaze to look at Yang Yaozong, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and continued: "So...... So the villain put the wine and food on the table, and gently pushed and pushed Du Gan, trying to wake him up. Who knows...... Suddenly he fell from his stool to the ground. Small...... The little one saw that there were blood stains on the placket of Chadu's dry clothes, and he dared to test his snort. It was found that Chadugan was no longer breathing. The frightened little one hurriedly turned around and ran out to call someone. It happened that there were several officials downstairs eating at that time, so they hurriedly ran up and blocked the place. ”
Yang Yaozong nodded and looked at the wine and food on the table and said, "How long did it take for you to prepare these wine and food and serve them here?" ”
The shopkeeper said directly: "It's only about a quarter of an hour." ”
Yang Yaozong said: "Okay, you go down and rest first." ”
Yang Yaozong turned around and saw Mu Qinghan and Liao Qiniang carefully observing Cha Dugan's corpse, and Yin Ruxin looked worried.
"Xin'er, what are you worried about?" Yang Yaozong paced to Yin Ruxin's side and whispered.
"I've been in contact with Chadugan a few times, and he originally wanted to buy two shops here to sell leather goods and open a restaurant. And he was born in the barge horse department, and it seems that he is still a nobleman in the barge horse department. If that's the case, Ayi should know this person too. ”
"Barge?"
Yin Ruxin frowned and nodded.
Yang Yaozong whispered: "If this is really the case, I'm afraid it will be a little troublesome." “
Mu Qinghan and Liao Qiniang also came to Yin Ruxin's side. Mu Qinghan whispered: "I checked the corpse of the Turk, he died in the same way as the Turkic who died a few days ago, he was killed by a knife on his throat. And look at the knife edge should also belong to the same knife cut. “
Liao Qiniang nodded approvingly.
Yin Ruxin pondered for a moment and said: "Two Turkic merchants have died this month, the first merchant is just a small tribe of merchants, even if you can't find the murderer, you can pass by." But I'm afraid Chadugan's death is not so perfunctory. I'm afraid of ......."
Yang Yaozong said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid that someone will deliberately do it, and they will use this matter to set off a contradiction between us and the Barge Horse Department, and it will also make the Hu people who come here to do business, especially the Turks, disappointed in our management, and affect the development of Zhangye." So we must catch this murderer and stop him from doing it for whatever purpose! “
"Your Excellency!" Liu Liu walked to Yang Yaozong's side and bowed and said: "Xia Guan has already asked Niu Er about them, they had lunch here just now, and when they heard the shouts of the shopkeeper, they hurriedly ran up, and after coming here, they blocked this place, and did not find anyone walking out of this room, nor did they let anyone in the inn leave the inn." As for the floor where Chadugan lived, he was the only one who had returned. None of the others have returned. “
Yang Yaozong nodded, paced to the window, pushed hard, and did not push open the window that had been inserted inside, and then walked to the corpse of Chadugan to take a look, and walked to the door along the bloodstains on the ground. There are several footprints on the blood stains on the ground, and after comparison, it is already known that they were mistakenly stepped on by the shopkeeper.
Yang Yaozong closed the door and saw that a lot of blood had been splattered on the door.
Mu Qinghan walked to Yang Yaozong's side and frowned, "This is ......"
Yang Yaozong frowned and said, "If my guess is right......" Yang Yaozong looked at Mu Qinghan beside him, walked behind Mu Qinghan, covered Mu Qinghan's mouth with one hand, and gently gestured between Mu Qinghan's neck with the other hand and said: "Chadu should not have made a sound before he died, otherwise he would definitely alarm the people who were dining downstairs." So he should have been covered by the murderer before he cut his throat and died. Because the blood from the cut throat will spurt out from the wound, and the blood on the door should not have been sprayed on the person's body, so I guess that the murderer should have cut the throat from behind. “
Yang Yaozong's posture seemed to hug Mu Qinghan tightly from behind, although the occasion was inappropriate at the moment, and Mu Qinghan also knew that Yang Yaozong was covering up how the murderer committed the murder for himself, and he had no other meaning. But she still couldn't help her heart beating, and she was secretly happy in her heart. After all, since the two opened their hearts that day, there has not been such an intimate move.
"Qinghan, Qinghan!" Yang Yaozong had already let go of Mu Qinghan, walked to her front and raised his eyebrows to look at her with a crimson face.
Mu Qinghan heard Yang Yaozong's soft call in a trance, suddenly woke up, realized his gaffe, and hurriedly nodded and whispered in shame: "Chadugan should be as Yaozong said, he should have been attacked and killed from behind." Seeing that Yang Yaozong was still staring at him, Mu Qinghan said angrily: "What are you looking at? ”
Yang Yaozong said with a wry smile: "What I discussed with you just now is that Chadugan may know the murderer, he should have opened the door to let the murderer in, and then when he closed the door defenselessly, the murderer took the opportunity to kill him." ”
"Huh?" Mu Qinghan's beautiful eyes widened, but her face was even redder than just now.
