"Ahh The fat man screamed violently, realized something and lowered his voice: "This sword is at least worth a hundred taels of silver, the old Taoist priest is so poor that he clangs, how can there be a reason to throw away the sword after killing someone?" No matter how good this farmer's family is, it is not like a person who has hundreds of taels of silver at home, and throws away the sword in order to grab a few taels of silver, there is no such stupid person in the world! ”

Qin Lin gently put the Seven Star Sword back in its place, looked around again, and when he saw all kinds of blood stains splattering and dripping around the corpse, that strange smile appeared on his face again.

Finally, he carefully examined the body.

The deceased Ma Tang was about thirty years old, with fair skin, a good appearance, and a thin layer of fat powder on her face.

Niu Dali explained beside him: "Our whole village is related to each other, the eldest brother of the Ma family is still my cousin, he is a tung oil dealer, he has been running to the east of Sichuan all the year round to buy tung oil, along the Yangtze River to the downstream to sell, the family does not do farm work, in the small door of the small household is considered to be a good life."

My sister-in-law has a very good heart, and she is usually said to be respectful to the monks, but unfortunately she has not given birth to a boy and a girl until now, but she gave away her surname in a daze. Alas, Brother Ma was running business outside, and he didn't know that his daughter-in-law was killed......"

While talking, an old couple rushed in from the door, crying bitterly, it turned out to be Ma Tang's father-in-law and mother-in-law.

The old couple went to the neighboring village to visit relatives in the early morning, and got the news that their daughter-in-law had been killed, so they hurried home to see that the daughter-in-law who was still alive in the morning had turned into a cold corpse.

"The thief Taoist has killed his daughter-in-law's surname, and we are fighting with you for this old life!" The old couple roared and went to scratch the clematis.

The Taoist robe on poor Clematis was originally sewn up, but when it was grabbed by the old couple, it was torn apart, draped on the body one by one, and had to do everything possible to avoid the two desperate old men, and made a fuss.

Seeing that the master's situation was not good, Kong Qingzi hurriedly obeyed his disciple and stepped forward to advise: "Uncle and aunt, your daughter-in-law is really not harmed by the teacher, don't do it if you have something to say." Now that your daughter-in-law is dead, naturally she can't come back to life, wouldn't it be good for our master and apprentice to recite a few sutras for her, so that her soul can return to the west and ascend to bliss as soon as possible? ”

"Senior brother is not right," Yun Huazi frowned, and interrupted: "The Western Heaven Elysium requires a monk to recite scriptures to go, and our Taoist priests confess to pray for blessings and eliminate disasters...... Ah! ”

Before he finished speaking, the husband of the Ma family was angry, and he had already taken off his straw sandals and smashed him on the mouth.

Qin Lin frowned, the idea of on-site investigation was interrupted by this noise, and he made a look, Niu Dali went over to calm the old couple and let them wait outside the door, waiting for the government to come to investigate, and there would be justice when the case was clarified.

A few locks of the clematy's beard were torn off, the tied hair was scattered, the black blue at the left eye became a panda eye, and the Taoist robe was torn to the point that it was not much different from a rag, which was really embarrassing.

He finally managed to squeeze out a smile and arch his hand towards Qin Lin, thanking him for helping him again.

Qin Lin ignored the clematis and began to uncover the corpse's clothes a little, and found that the corpse spots had not yet been formed.

After death, the purple-red plaques that appear on the skin of the lower part of the corpse, called corpse spots, are the result of the blood circulation stopping after death, the lack of power in the cardiovascular system and the accumulation of blood along the vascular network in the lower part of the corpse, the emptiness of the high blood vessels of the corpse, and the congestion of the lower blood vessels of the corpse, and the capillaries and venules of the lower part of the corpse are filled with blood, and the dark red to dark purple-red marks presented through the skin are presented through the skin.

Since no corpse spots have been found for the time being, it means that the time of death is indeed at the stage when the clematis master and apprentice have breakfast at Ma's house to the time when the cow flat hair and tangerine leatherman find the body.

Seeing Qin Lin take off the deceased's clothes, the few people standing at the gate of the courtyard were all angry, and the harpoon was stunned and shouted, "Hey, why did you uncover the clothes of the third aunt?" ”

Qin Lin smiled: "I'll look at the injuries and look for clues." ”

"You're not a fool!" Stunned and pouted, but Niu Dali, who is the head of the people's strong team, has a high prestige in the village, and with him supporting Qin Lin, others have to put their complaints in their stomachs.

Qin Lin carefully observed the injury, his eyes suddenly lit up, his expression was very different from usual, and he stretched out his hand to beckon Xiao Fat Dun.

Lu Yuanzhi saw a number of wounds on the chest and abdomen of the corpse, large and small, and the blood gushing out had begun to change from bright red to dark red - of course he didn't know that this was the change in the color of the blood after being exposed to the air and the ferrous ions in the hemoglobin were oxidized to positive iron ions.

As for the wound itself, there didn't seem to be anything abnormal, Lu Yuanzhi shook his head in confusion.

Heran sneered twice, and Qin Lin pointed to one of the wounds that was about an inch long: "Fatty, take a closer look, what's strange about this wound?" ”

Lu Yuanzhi opened his eyes wide and looked at it carefully, and immediately said strangely: "Hey, no, this is after death with a sword!" ”

This time it was Qin Lin's turn to be surprised, and he made a gesture to ask the fat man to be quiet so as not to be heard by others.

There is a term in forensic science called life reaction, which refers to the reaction of the body after being stimulated during life, that is, when the body's circulatory and respiratory functions exist, and often becomes the key clue of the whole case when solving homicide cases.

For example, if a person is burned alive, because of inhaling hot air containing soot, the lungs will have edema caused by burns, and there will be smoke and dust remaining, and if the criminal sets fire to try to destroy the evidence of the crime after death, then although the corpse is scorched on the outside, the lungs will not have this kind of life reaction.

Now the victim Ma Tang, if she died under the Seven Star Sword, then the stabbed wound should have a life reaction, at least including massive bleeding and open wounds.

In addition to bleeding, skin, muscles, tendons, blood vessels, nerves and other tissues of a living person who are stabbed or cut have a certain elastic surname, and when a wound is formed, these [***] tissues on both sides should contract, pulling the wound to both sides and opening the wound.

The wound that Qin Lin was referring to not only had very little bleeding, but the wound itself was not as muscular as other wounds, and it was obviously formed after death.

However, Lu Yuanzhi has never studied forensics, how did he know?

The fat man smiled embarrassedly: "My family opened a butcher shop to kill pigs, and when I cut it, the knife edge was similar to the other wounds of this corpse, and the skin and flesh rolled on both sides, and there were many blood stains; When the pig is killed, the bleeding and hair removal are finally disemboweled, and at this time, the knife edge is the same as the one you pointed at Brother Qin, the wound is smooth, the skin and flesh are not rolled, and there is no blood. ”

Qin Lin suddenly realized that Lu Yuanzhi was an experience learned from life, and indeed the physiological reaction of pigs was very similar to that of people, and later generations also made a special genetically modified pig for organ transplantation, and prepared to use this pig organ to replace the patient's sick organ, because the physiological structure of pigs is not much different from that of people.

However, it is too powerful to be able to bypass from killing pigs to killing, who said that fat people are stupid? That's "honest and simple", meow a mi!

With Qin Lin's approval, Lu Yuanzhi was even more determined: "Hmph, it's the person who killed the cow." ”

Since there was a sword wound on the corpse that was made after death, it seems that the course of the case can be determined that Niu Bianmao killed Ma Tang, and then, in the process of escaping, found that the tangerine leatherman passed by the scene of the crime, fearing that the case would be exposed immediately, Niu Bianmao pretended to find the body with the tangerine leatherman, and covered up his crime as the informant - this practice is not uncommon.

After hearing the villagers talk about the Taoist priest having dinner at Ma's house in the morning, Niu Bianmao had an idea to shift the blame to the clematis master and apprentice, quietly took the sword, stabbed a sword on the corpse of Ma Tang, and then pretended to find the "murder weapon", so that he succeeded in blaming others.

After saying this reasoning, Lu Yuanzhi looked at Qin Lin without blinking.

"Your reasoning can be regarded as passing, but there is still an unexplained loophole," Qin Lin patted the fat man on the shoulder, "I won't tell you now, wait for you to think about it slowly." ”

Lu Yuanzhi had a bitter face and muttered a complaint: "Brother Qin loves to sell Guanzi......"

There was the sound of gongs opening the way outside, and a male duck was heard complaining loudly:

"How did you become a land protector, huh? Just suppressed the White Lotus Sect, this is another big murder case, I don't want to stay in Qizhou for a day, but fortunately, there is Lord Shi to help...... Lord Shi, today you have to give a late birth anyway, let's take the emperor's family to raise people and scholars, talking about the study of saints, and cultivating sincerity, this murder and overselling thing, I haven't seen it since I was a child! ”

Knowing that the eldest master of Zhizhou was coming, Lu Yuanzhi pulled Qin Lin's shirt and motioned him to withdraw, Qin Lin took two steps, thought about it and stopped, and stood against the wall of the courtyard.

Zhizhou Zhang Gongyu is the first year of Wanli Guiyouke three from the top three, after the household view of the county, six years to promote the judgment, ascend to Zhizhou, although the career is not a straight up, but also smooth sailing.

Unexpectedly, when he took office in Qizhou, the White Lotus Sect first made a mess, and finally calmed down, and then there was a murder case.

As the saying goes, human life is a matter of heaven, and the magistrates of the Ming Dynasty are most afraid of two things, one is that taxes cannot be collected, and the other is that human life cases cannot be solved, and compared with the first article, human life lawsuits are particularly hateful.

Because although the insufficient tax collection will affect the performance appraisal, it can still get a clear name of "cherishing the people's strength", and when leaving, the local gentleman will shed a few tears, and then give the people an umbrella, and engage in tricks such as taking off his boots and staying in office; And the murder case is not clear, not only the "external inspection" once every three years will fall into a "unclear case" test, which will greatly affect the official career, and when you leave office, the local gentleman will also scold you for being a foolish official in front of your back, making you not a person inside and out.

Therefore, Zhang Gongyu and Master Zhang, who rushed into the scene of the crime, had layers of sweat on his head.

Qin Lin only glanced at him, and his attention was attracted by the person who was holding on to the eldest lord - that person was majestic, with a full beard and a bright yellow flying fish suit, it was none other than Lord Shi Weishi, the Jinyi Guard of the city.

Shi Wei wondered why Qin Lin was here, but Qin Lin nodded to him for a long time, and Shi Wei also smiled and arched his hand.

Zhang Gongyu was guessing what Qin Lin was coming from, and even the head of the Minzhuang team under his command was humble and polite to him, and now he saw Shi Wei greeting him, and he was only a figure in the Jinyi Wei system.

"Hmph, there are too many things in Jinyiwei, this person doesn't know where to come from, Shi Wei doesn't introduce it, and the official doesn't bother to ask."

Zhang Gongyu nodded at Qin Lin and said hello.

Shi Wei will be wrong again, since Zhizhou and this young man know each other, and his attitude is still very natural and casual, then his judgment is correct, most of them are the princes and grandsons of which family, and there is no time to ask Zhang Gongyu at the scene of the murder, and as a Jinyi guard, he doesn't need to care too much about this young "noble son".

Zhang Gongyu was in a hurry, but when he came here, he took a look, okay, the murderer was caught, the murder weapon was also there, the human and material evidence were all there, and it was really effortless to solve the case, so he immediately turned his worries into joy, and said to Shi Wei: "Lord Shi, you are tired of running for nothing today, and the official will invite you to drink and watch the play." ”

Shi Wei nodded and didn't say anything, he was originally eating and drinking in the state government, but he was suddenly pulled by Zhang Gongyu when he encountered this matter, originally Jinyiwei was only responsible for rebellion and rebellion, and other things, and ordinary cases in the local area were not under his control.

Zhang Gongyu shook his majesty, his eyes were wide open, and his expression was awe-inspiring, like Bao Longtu and Di Renjie on the stage, he threw off the wide sleeves of his official robe, and shouted with all his strength:

"Come on, take down these three thieves and Taoists who committed murder to this official!"

Clematis was so frightened that the chrysanthemum tightened, and she also held back Dou E's strength to shout injustice, and dragged out her voice and shouted bitterly: "The master of Qingtian is above, and the poor road is wronged~~"
