Yang Qiuchi asked Wang Dong: "What's the matter with you going to the ship's house to pay the boat gang fee?" ”

But all the criminals who have been arrested and brought to justice have a common mentality, hoping to atone for their crimes, and this Wang Dong is no exception, listening to Yang Qiuchi suddenly ask about this gang fee, he replied busily: "Hui Si Lao: On the large and small rivers in the northeast of Sichuan, as long as the people who support the fishing boat to fish, almost all of them are the gang of the boat gang, and they must pay the gang fee according to the regulations." ”

"What if I can't pay it?"

"Then, then you have to tow the fishing boat and hit the board."

"Playing the board?" Yang Qiuchi was slightly stunned, is this a gangster in the rivers and lakes or a government yamen, and asked: "What bad things have you boat gang done, do you know?" -- If you can tell valuable news, you may be able to atone for your sins. ”

In fact, Yang Qiuchi knew very well in his heart that this Wang Dong was an ordinary fisherman, and what he wanted to know, the old man and his son would also know. Sure enough, Wang Dong cried and shook his head: "In addition to paying the help fee on time, how can we know about the things in the gang." ”

Yang Qiuchi leaned down and asked in a low voice: "Then do you know who killed the wife and children of Lord Shen Fengsongshen, the last governor of Bazhou?" Did you boat gang do it? ”

A trace of horror flashed in Wang Dong's eyes: "Villain...... The villain really doesn't know, but before that, I heard the brothers in the gang say that Shen Zhizhou is too, and he has ruined a lot of things for us, and the boss is already preparing to clean him up, but how did he do it, such a secret, if the villain could know, he would not stay on the Ba River to fish. ”

This is true, it seems that the matter of this boat gang cannot be found out in a few words. Yang Qiuchi ordered Wang Dong to be escorted back to the yamen, and at the same time ordered that Sun Mingjiang be acquitted.

Yang Qiuchi returned to the inner office, Song Qing and Hong Aya were very happy when they heard that Yang Qiuchi had solved the case of the floating corpse in the Ba River.

Hong Aya's craftsmanship is good, after this case, Yang Qiuchi has been worried about the case, plus sad Yunlu was forced to marry far away, so he didn't eat and drink well, and now he is full of thoughts about the boat gang, he didn't have much appetite, but as soon as he tasted Hong Aya's exquisite dishes, he threw everything back to his head, and he couldn't stop stuffing it into his mouth, and he was busy praising Red Aya.

Seeing Yang Qiuchi's greedy look, Hong Aya and Song Qing glanced at each other and laughed. Hong Aya said: "Master, you eat slowly, no one will rob you." ”

Yang Qiuchi chewed a piece of Dongpo elbow in his mouth, and said vaguely: "I know that no one will rob me, but this mouth can't wait to swallow so many delicious bones and brains immediately." ”

Seeing that Yang Qiuchi liked to eat the dishes he made, Hong Aya was of course very happy, and said, "Master, you have eaten countless meals made by Hong Aya, and you still don't get tired of eating." ”

Yang Qiuchi smiled and hugged Hong Aya, kissed Hong Aya's delicate red lips with the greasy mouth that was glued by Dongpo's elbow, and said, "The dishes made by my little baby Red Aya, I can't get tired of eating them!" I won't get tired of eating it for the rest of my life! ”

Hong Aya's red lips were pasted with oil by Yang Qiuchi, but she was very happy in her heart, and said softly: "The master loves to eat, and the red silk will be made for the master for the rest of his life." ”

"Good! That's great! Yang Qiuchi chewed his elbow and smiled.

Dangdang~! Song Yun'er tapped the plate with chopsticks and snorted: "Bh! Don't be so sensual, okay! ”

Yang Qiuchi laughed, pouted and was about to kiss Song Yun'er, so frightened that Song Yun'er giggled and flew away, Yang Qiuchi was going to kiss the mud doll Song Qing again, and Song Qing was also scared to run around with a grin. For a time, the house was full of spring.

After eating, Yang Qiuchi began to think about the case of Shen Fengsong's wife and children who were killed by the boat gang and thrown into the Ba River.

After listening to what Zhan Zhengzhan said about this case, Yang Qiuchi had a preliminary plan, and used a method of killing two birds with one stone, assigning Shi Qiujian to the ship's firm to find out the ballast, and took the opportunity to arrest Lin Xiang, on the one hand, to find out the whereabouts of the thin iron chain, and to solve the murder of Li Hanbao by Wang Dong, on the other hand, to force Lin Xiang to confess the inside information of the boat gang, so as to solve the case of the boat gang killing Shen Zhizhou's wife and children and other crimes of the boat gang.

It didn't take long for Yang Qiuchi to think of further investigation ideas, and now that he has solved the Bahe floating corpse case, he can concentrate on dealing with the boat gang.

According to the current situation, the boat gang is obviously a gangster, and to deal with this kind of crime of the underworld, we must be cautious, plan and then act, once we make a move, we must cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and leave no trouble!

The gangsters are in the dark and they are in the light, and if they are tough, they will suffer a lot, because they can't find where the enemy is, and they must lure the snake out of the hole.

Yang Qiuchi arranged for Shi Qiujian to find the ballast and pretend to be killed by Lin Xiang, and then arrested Lin Xiang, which was the first step to lure the snake out of the hole, hoping to lure out the senior leaders behind the boat gang and even the bureaucrats behind the scenes who acted as an umbrella for them.

The first thing to do now is to investigate whether the murder of Shen Fengsong's wife and children really exists, then an open coffin autopsy is required.

Yang Qiuchi first interrogated some officials and officials in the yamen to confirm the existence of this matter, and then carefully interrogated the person who disposed of the corpse at that time, and learned that after finding the body of Shen Fengsong's wife and children, Shen Fengsong was sad and crazy, no one took care of him, and was sent back to his hometown.

The place where the body was buried was in the lower reaches of the Ba River, dozens of miles away, and Yang Qiuchi decided to investigate again the next day.

Early the next morning, Yang Qiuchi took Song Yun'er, Shuang'er, and Xue'er, two pretty girls, to carry the forensic physical evidence investigation box, and under the protection of Nangong Xiong's escort team, led by several people who were responsible for burying the corpse, walked dozens of miles, and finally came to the burial place.

The Ba River was so strong that the body was found floating dozens of miles downstream.

It had been several months since the incident, and the weather was so hot and humid, Yang Qiuchi was a little worried that the corpse had been highly [***] or even ossified, in that case, a lot of evidence would be lost.

The grave was dug up, and two coffins, one large and one small, were pried open by a few grievances, and a strong smell of corpses emanated from the coffin, which was unbearable.

Everyone else frowned and covered their noses to avoid it, but Yang Qiuchi was happy in his heart, with this strong smell of corpses, it means that the corpse is at least in the stage of decay, which is much stronger than white ossification.

After opening the coffin and waiting for the smell of the corpse to dissipate somewhat, Yang Qiuchi put on the special gloves that Feng Xiaoxue sewed for him to investigate the corpse, ready for examination. Examine the corpse in the large coffin first.

Song Yun'er also followed to the coffin, and when she looked inside, a corpse lying inside was already [***], unrecognizable, if it wasn't for the dress she was wearing, it would be really difficult to tell whether it was a man or a woman.

Song Yun'er had never seen a corpse with a height of [***], and she couldn't help but exclaim in fright when she saw this terrifying scene.

The last time he investigated the case of killing Wang Dianshi, he opened the coffin in the temple for an autopsy, and the body was also high [***], but that time it was Liu Ruobing who accompanied Yang Qiuchi, and Song Yun'er didn't catch up. And the corpse of Zhao Qinglan, the concubine of Wang Dianshi, who was hanging in the primeval jungle of Zhenyuan Prefecture that Song Yun'er caught up, although it also began to [***], but the degree of [***] was not so heavy, and it was always hanging in the wilderness, and the smell was not so bad.

And this time, the corpse was sealed and buried in the soil by the coffin, and the [***] smell has been sealed in the coffin, although it was opened and ventilated for a while, the [***] stench in the coffin was still relatively strong, which was really unbearable.

As soon as Song Yun'er looked at it for a while, she felt that her eyes were hot and very uncomfortable, and she was shocked and took a few steps back.

Yang Qiuchi turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" Yun'er. ”

"I ...... I think the smell is so strong, and my eyes are hot and uncomfortable. ”

"This corpse smells poisonous from decay, you go to the side first, and wait until it's better."

Hydrogen sulfide is produced after the corpse [***], a nerve poison that irritates the conjunctiva of the eye, causing heat, pain, and blurred vision in the eye, as well as irritating the respiratory tract.

Originally, the open coffin autopsy should have carried the body to a ventilated place to blow away the toxic gases as much as possible before the examination. But Yang Qiuchi was anxious to inspect it, and the corpse was already high [***], and he couldn't move, otherwise it would all be rotten and fall apart, and besides, he was also used to this kind of stimulation, so he didn't wait for the smell to completely dissipate, so he went up to inspect it. Song Yun'er didn't know, so she also followed, but she got drunk.

Yang Qiuchi continued to check. According to several evidence of the buried corpse, this corpse is Shen Zhizhou's wife Pan.

After examination, the corpse had blunt trauma to the back of the head, the wound was oval, there was a large area of epidermal peeling around the wound, the skull was depressed and fractured, the edges were irregular, and there were several radial fracture lines extending around. One large bone fragment and two smaller bone fragments were found in the fracture area.

Judging from the wound, it is preliminarily judged to be caused by slamming the back of the head with a pebble similar to a river. This wound alone is enough to be fatal.

Although the heads of the two corpses were already [***] high, they could still roughly make out a motif carved with a moon on their foreheads, like a ship. Listening to Zhan Zhengzhan catching the head, this is the sign of the boat gang.

Sure enough, Yang Qiuchi secretly scolded in his heart, this boat gang is really arrogant to the extreme.

There are more than ten obvious knife cuts on the chest and abdomen of Shen Zhizhou's lady's body Pan's body, of different sizes, and after measurement, there are three sizes, all of which belong to stabbing weapons, according to which it is preliminarily speculated that at least three murder weapons have stabbed the deceased. Because the corpse has been [***], the skin layer on the surface has dissolved and decayed, and the corresponding wound under the dress can only be seen as an approximation, and the murder weapon is inferred, and it is more necessary to rely on the wounds left by the murder weapon on the dress.

There are no visible wounds to the legs. After carefully inserting the probe into the wound cavity, the depth of the wound was measured, all of which were deep into the chest and abdominal cavity, judging from the corresponding parts, it was estimated that the heart, lungs, liver, stomach and other parts had been pierced or punctured.

Judging from the large areas of dark red blood-like marks on the dress worn by the corpse, these stab wounds should be prenatal wounds, because only prenatal wounds can cause such a large area of bleeding, and almost the entire dress will be dyed red.

If it is stabbed shortly after death, although it will bleed, because there is no heart beat, the pressure of blood flow disappears, and the blood flows out under the action of gravity, so the amount is very small, and such a large area of blood will not be formed. Also, if the wound is facing up, it usually only bleeds from the body and does not flow out of the body.

The body in the child's coffin was already [***], the clothes were also covered with dark red blood, and there were several stab wounds on the chest, front and back, and according to the size of the wounds on the clothes, there were also three obvious different sizes, proving that there should be three different sizes of stabbing tools to stab the baby who was just one year old.

The wounds on the child's clothes matched the three wounds on Pan's dress, indicating that it was likely that three people stabbed Pan and the child one after another, and some people smashed the back of Pan's head with pebbles.

Seeing this tragic situation, Yang Qiuchi couldn't help but scold, "Beast! At this time, I heard a muffled cry behind me, and when I turned my head to look, I saw Song Yun'er standing behind me sobbing.

Yang Qiuchi said: "Yun'er, do you feel better?" ”

Song Yun'er nodded: "These people ...... These people are so cruel! ”

"Yes, you will not spare them!" Yang Qiuchi also said hatefully.

"Brother, have you found the clue to the murderer?"

"According to the current situation, it should be the boat gang who did it, and the murderers are likely to be three people, who they are and who they are instructed by, I don't know yet, but I will definitely find out!"

"Hmmm! These people are so cruel to a child, they catch them, and they want to break them into pieces! ”

The autopsy has made it clear that the wife and children of Shen Fengsong, the former governor of Bazhou, were murdered brutally. This is the basis of the murder. If the body is not found, or if the body proves that it was not homicide, then the basic basis for filing a case for investigation obviously does not exist. Now that it is certain that he was murdered, there is a basic basis for the investigation of the criminal offense.

When Yang Qiuchi and his entourage returned to Bazhou, it was already evening. He decided to immediately interrogate Lin Xiang, the treasurer of the ship's trading house.

After a hurried dinner, Yang Qiuchi took Song Yun'er, Master Jin and personal guards to the prison and began to secretly interrogate Lin Xiang, the shopkeeper of the "Boat Family Firm".

Lin Xiang was sitting on the ground with iron chains and wooden flails. He knew that he was in trouble now, and killed the follower of Yang Qiuchi, the uncle of Zhenyuan, who was a small official of Bazhou from a small official of the fifth grade, and he must be very promising, if the boat gang did not come forward to deal with it for him, he would be dead. But he asked his guy Ryuuji to find the big shopkeeper to save him, but he didn't move, how could he not worry.

Seeing Yang Qiuchi leading people to the prison, Lin Xiang didn't know whether it was joy or misfortune, and looked at Yang Qiuchi in fear.

The guards hurriedly gave the eldest man a seat and served fragrant tea.
