Chapter 58: Crime Scene
Lu Jinping said: "Your daughter-in-law heard that she died of illness, and the pain of your loss of wife is not healed, this single king actually sprinkled salt on your wounds, it is really hateful, we will punish it severely, you can rest assured." ”
When Wang Dunzi heard this, he couldn't help but look sad and expressed his gratitude with tears in his eyes.
Lu Jinping asked, "How did your daughter-in-law get sick?" Why did you die so quickly? Why did you stop for a day and then be buried in a hurry? ”
Wang Dunzi sobbed and said: "When she came home that day, she said that she was uncomfortable, I asked her to rest in bed for a while, and I cooked by myself, but after the meal was ready, I asked her to eat, but she couldn't get out of bed, which frightened me, and quickly went to Lang Zhong to see, saying that it was the plague." This frightened me, and I quickly asked my father and mother and children to hide in a relative's house, and I took care of her, but in the middle of the night people were not able to do it, and before dawn they died, because I heard that it was a plague, so I hurried to bury the body, and then I mourned. I was afraid that the disease would be too severe, so I hurriedly buried him. ”
"So that's it." Lu Jinping nodded suddenly in realization, "By the way, but I don't know which Lang Zhong you invited?" can be so accurately judged that it is the plague, and your daughter-in-law died of illness in half a day, it can be seen that this plague is very powerful, don't infect everyone, you know, the plague I heard people say that it is very fast, fall ill in the morning, and die in the evening. It's too scary, I have to find this Lang Zhong and find a way to check and prevent it for everyone. ”
Wang Dunzi opened his mouth wide, a little at a loss, he obviously didn't expect that after Lu Jinping comforted him a few words, he actually asked him to say the Lang Zhong who confirmed his wife's condition. With his mouth open, like a carp out of water, he didn't know what to say.
Lu Jinping smiled and said, "You shouldn't tell me that Lang Zhong doesn't know where to go, right?" Or maybe it's some kind of bell doctor or something, it's better not to say that, because you are not alone, there are many villagers around you, if there is a bell doctor in the village, then others will definitely know that it is impossible for the bell doctor to land in your yard from the sky, right? ――You can tell me, who is this Langzhong? ”
At this moment, Xu Dunzi was dumbfounded, and subconsciously asked: "The lord won't suspect that I killed my wife, right?" ”
"You guessed it, I'm not suspicious, I'm confirmed. Your lady did not die of illness, but was murdered. Before you came, we had conducted a preliminary examination of your lady's body, and found a hole-like fracture the size of an egg on your lady's forehead, and a strip-like depressed fracture in the back of the head. Both fractures were fatal, and either could cause her immediate incapacity. So, it can't be that she committed suicide, and it can't be that you said she got the plague, and if it was, how did she get the head injury? ”
Xu Dunzi shuddered and looked at Lu Jinping in horror.
Lu Jinping walked to the corpse and lifted the sheets, pointed to the egg-sized hole on his forehead and said, "Will there be a hole in your plague head?" What a joke. Say, what's going on? ”
Wang Dunzi completely collapsed, and knelt on the ground with a grunt: "I confess, my daughter-in-law was killed by me." I heard that she was stealing people outside, and when I asked her, she didn't admit it, and I couldn't get angry, so I killed her. ”
"Where did you kill you?"
"In the kitchen of my house. We had an argument and I killed her. ”
Lu Jinping said to Luo Justice, who was next to him: "You will interrogate the specific process of how he killed people, and I will take someone to his kitchen to inspect the scene." When he is done, you can take him to their kitchen and see if my inquest results match his account, and you will know if he is telling the truth. ”
Justice Luo hurriedly agreed. Lu Jinping asked Ye Qingqing to carry the forensic investigation box on his back, take the bear to catch his head, and under the guidance of Wang Cunzheng, he came to Wang Dunzi's house.
Wang Dunzi was arrested and taken away, and their family was panicking, and when they saw that the arrester was coming again, they hurriedly came up to ask what was going on.
Xiong Zhutou said: "We suspect that Wang Dunzi murdered his wife, and now he is recording a confession, Lord Lu personally came to investigate the scene, you go outside and wait, no one is allowed to walk around at will." ”
Lu Jinping took Ye Qingqing to the kitchen outside Wang Dunzi's house, asked Ye Qingqing to guard the door and not allow anyone to enter, and then walked into the kitchen with the forensic investigation box, closed the door, and looked around the house first, but found no obvious blood stains or anything like that, and no traces of murder. It seems that the scene has been reprocessed.
Lu Jinping squatted down, opened the forensic investigation box, took out fluorescence-enhanced protective glasses and put them on, and took out the ultraviolet laser forensic detector to open and irradiate everywhere.
Suddenly, his eyes fell on a stone mill in the corner of the kitchen, the handle of which was bent at right angles, and under ultraviolet light, through the fluorescence-enhanced glasses, he could clearly see the pale cyan fluorescent reflection that was different from the surroundings. At the same time, clumps and guttate fluorescence reflections were also found on the surface of the stone mill and on the ground nearby, suggesting that there were suspected blood stains on the stone mill handle, the stone mill, and the ground.
Lu Jinping paid attention to the handle of the stone mill, which was similar in shape and size to the foramen fracture of the deceased's forehead. Continuing to probe, a pale cyan fluorescent reflection was also found on a long rolling pin placed on the board, indicating that there was also something suspected to be blood on it.
Continuing to look at the other seats in the kitchen, nothing more noticeable.
Lu Jinping walked out of the kitchen door, picked a small branch from a tree in the yard, returned to the kitchen to measure the diameter of the handle of the stone mill, made a mark, and after coming out, he called the bear catcher over and asked him to take the branch to compare the round hole on the deceased's forehead to see if it could match, and at the same time told Luo Justice that the on-site investigation here has been completed, and if the inquiry is over, Wang Dunzi can be escorted over for on-site identification.
Soon, Xiong Zhutou and Luo Zheng escorted Wang Dunzi and them over. Wang Dunzi's parents saw their son coming over outside the courtyard, and they immediately cried, and asked if they had made a mistake, and their daughter-in-law died of illness, not their son.
Their weeping was drowned out by a cold word from Justice Law. Luo Zheng coldly told them: "Your son has confessed that he killed his daughter-in-law, but we didn't execute him, he confessed in the courtyard of Wang Village, and many people heard it." ”
As soon as they heard that their son confessed to killing someone, the old couple suddenly collapsed on the ground. I thought it could be that the yamen was mistaken, but it turned out to be true. At this moment, he suddenly lost his backbone.
Seeing Yi Xingchen standing in front of the kitchen door, Luo Zheng hurriedly stepped forward and said, "This guy has already confessed to murder, he said ......"
Lu Jinping waved his hand and said, "Don't say it first, you come into the kitchen with me, I will tell you the results of my investigation, and speculate how he killed people." Let's correspond to what you just heard from him, see if my judgment is correct, and see if I can get mutual corroboration. ”
The reason why Lu Jinping said this was not to show off, but that he wanted to use this method to convince Luo that his Taoism was very helpful in solving cases, so as to strengthen his trust in his detection skills and lay a good foundation for him to finally embark on the road of criminal justice in the future.
When Luo Zheng heard this, he was a little surprised, and said: "The lord has not heard Wang Dunzi's confession, so he knows how he killed people?" ”
"Didn't I tell you? I have learned from a wandering monk to solve a case with Taoism, and I have already used the Taoism I have learned to investigate the scene, and I will tell you about the results of my speculation based on Taoism to see if it can be consistent with the confession you just heard, so that you can prove whether he is telling the truth, or whether his confession is supported by the on-site investigation, and whether it is consistent with the investigation results. This is an important means of proving the merits of the case. ”
A look of reverence suddenly appeared on Luo Zheng's face, and he followed Lu Jinping into the kitchen. Lu Jinping beckoned Xiong Zhutou to come over and listen. The bear catcher also hurriedly followed to the door, standing at the door and watching them.
