Chapter Eighty-Six: Who Is the Murderer?
Although Yang Qiuchi didn't understand the truth of this, he saw that Song Zhixian was admiring Bai Sumei's "filial piety", and what this representative of the feudal social bureaucracy said should represent the ideology of the ruling class, since the ruling class thinks that this is right, then it is inconvenient for him, a modern youth from the 21st century, to interfere too much.
Song Yun'er smiled: "Brother, you don't even understand this?" I thought you knew everything. ”
"Of course I know everything!" Yang Qiuchi smiled and teased her.
"Doodoo, blow the conch!" Song Yun'er grimaced, "Since you know everything, then tell me," Song Yun'er pointed to Yin De's corpse on the ground, "How did he die?" ”
Yang Qiuchi looked at Yin De's terrifying corpse, and said slowly in a deep voice: "She was strangled to death by Bai Xiaomei!" ”
This sentence made everyone's whole body chill, and Song Yun'er said, "Hey! Don't be scary, okay? Still shrank beside her father Song Zhixian, and cautiously glanced around, at this time, the sun was sinking in the west, the wind was gusting in all directions, and the corpses lying on the ground made this place seem to have become a Shura field. Song Yun'er was even more frightened, thinking: Bai Xiaomei died a few days ago, could it be her ghost......
Yang Qiuchi patted Song Yun'er on the shoulder, Song Yun'er was looking around nervously to see if there were any ghosts, Yang Qiuchi's slap scared her so much that she almost jumped up, shouting: "Death!" You. ”
"You're still a chivalrous woman, that's all you dare!" Yang Qiuchi said with a smile.
Song Yun'er asked nervously, "Didn't you say that this Yin De was strangled to death by Bai Xiaomei's ghost?" ”
"It was Bai Xiaomei who killed it, not Bai Xiaomei's ghost!"
"What white little sister...... Not a ghost...... What the hell are you talking about? Song Yun'er was confused, and her surname was Sarai.
"Bai Xiaomei was actually not killed by Old Man Yin, but strangled to death by Yin De - Old Man Yin just covered her mouth and caused her to fall into a coma, but she did not die, and later Yin De choked Bai Xiaomei's neck for insurance, and finally strangled Bai Xiaomei to death. Yin De is the real murderer, so Bai Xiaomei seeks revenge on him. ”
Song Yun'er shivered and looked around: "How do you know?" ”
Mr. Bai Qian also frowned, unable to understand the meaning of Yang Qiuchi's words.
"I know because I'm observant! By observation. Yang Qiuchi smiled, "I checked the bodies that day and found that the size of the pinch marks on the necks of the two sisters were very similar, indicating that it was probably done by the same person." Moreover, the pinch marks were long and wide, and the force used was so strong that they crushed the throat bones of both of them, which is generally only possible for young people, and the various abnormal behaviors of Yin De later made me suspect that he had done it. ”
"That's right! I also think Yin De is very abnormal," Song Yun'er said with the benefit of the whole thing, "He saw that his little sister and sister's eyes opened, and he was so frightened that he sat on the ground, not even knowing that his hand was pierced by a nail. Also, when he saw Sister Bai Sumei come back from the dead, he was not happy at all, but nervous as if he was something. It must be a thief! ”
Yang Qiuchi gave a thumbs up: "Smart, Yun'er is very observant, she is really getting smarter and smarter!" ”
Song Yun'er smiled proudly.
Bai Qian always asked: "Young Master Yang, how do you know that my daughter Bai Xiaomei didn't die when she was pinched by Yin Lao's thief, but was strangled to death by Yin De later?" Song Yun'er, Song Zhixian and the others also looked at Yang Qiuchi expectantly.
Yang Qiuchi said: "Didn't Old Man Yin say it, when Bai Xiaomei shouted, Old Man Yin covered Bai Xiaomei's mouth with his hand, which can be confirmed from Bai Xiaomei's bruised face and bleeding gums in her nose and mouth. The reason why I am sure that Bai Xiaomei did not die at that time, but just passed out, is because when Yin De pinched her later, this pinch had an obvious life reaction. ”
"Life reactions?" Song Zhixian and the others asked in unison, they couldn't understand what this meant.
Yang Qiuchi smiled and said: "To put it simply, life reflection is that if people are still alive, when they are stimulated by the outside world, the body will cause corresponding reactions. For example, subcutaneous hemorrhage is a typical sign of a antemorta injury. ”
"Wounded before death?" Song Zhixian has never heard of this term, "What is a prenatal injury?" ”
"Injuries before and after death are whether the injury was present during the deceased's lifetime or formed after death." Yang Qiuchi patiently explained to them, in fact, these concepts are in Song Ci's "Record of Clearing Grievances", but Song Zhixian did not specialize in them, and they did not study them.
"Let's take this case as an example, Bai Xiaomei's fatal injury is the pinch mark on her neck, if the pinch mark on Bai Xiaomei's neck is a pre-mortem injury, it means that she was not dead at that time, and Yin De pinched her, that is intentional homicide; If the choke mark was a postmortem injury, then he was pinching a corpse, which was at best an attempted intentional homicide. ”
Song Zhixian was a little confused again: "Attempt? ”
This term is not easy to explain accurately in two words: "Failure is the failure to achieve the goal." "Not exactly, but most of it refers to this meaning, "If Bai Xiaomei was already dead when Yin De pinched, then he could not bear criminal responsibility for Bai Xiaomei's death." Instead, the old man Yin, who covered his little sister's mouth and caused her death, should bear criminal responsibility for intentional homicide. ”
"Criminal, criminally responsible?" This made Song Zhixian even more confused.
Oh my God, these words are all modern criminal law terms, of course, these ancient people don't understand, but you don't need modern words, and Yang Qiuchi doesn't know the ancient words, how to explain them? It seems that they can't go on any more, and if they do, they will think they are nervous.
Yang Qiuchi waved his hand: "In a word, if the pinch mark on Bai Xiaomei's neck is injured before death, then the murderer is Yin De, and if it is injured after death, the murderer is his father Old Man Yin!" ”
"Oh, Xian, Xian makes a point." Song Zhixian realized, thought about it, and asked, "Then how do you know if you were injured before you were born, or if you were injured after death?" ”
"The little nephew carefully observed the pinch mark on Bai Xiaomei's neck, there is subcutaneous hemorrhage, this is the life reaction I just said, if she was dead at that time, there would generally be no subcutaneous hemorrhage. Therefore, the pinch mark on Bai Xiaomei's neck is a pre-mortem injury, and the murderer should be Yin De. And Old Man Yin only stunned Bai Xiaomei, he was only responsible for the act of forcible annihilation, and the act of covering the stunned belonged to the scope of the use of violence in the crime of forcible annihilation, and did not constitute a crime alone, so Old Man Yin did not bear criminal responsibility for Bai Xiaomei's death. ”
After Yang Qiuchi finished analyzing endlessly, he saw Song Zhixian and others looking at him with their mouths open, and realized that he had said a lot of criminal causality theories in modern criminal law, no wonder they were stupid. However, how to explain these problems clearly with ancient criminal theories, Yang Qiuchi has not studied.
Song Yun'er blinked her eyes and asked, "Brother, you said that the pinch marks on Sister Bai's neck are subcutaneous...... What's under the skin? ”
"Subcutaneous bleeding."
"Oh, yes, subcutaneous bleeding, does it mean that it was injured before death?"
Yang Qiuchi secretly thought that it is not so simple to judge the injury before death, in addition to the naked eye, the most reliable is to use a histological microscope to observe to see if there is a tissue inflammatory reaction; Special histochemical staining can also be used to detect changes in various enzymes in the tissues around the injury. However, none of these methods can be explained, and they can't understand it.
Yang Qiuchi nodded: "It's basically certain." ”
Song Yun'er glanced at Yin De's corpse: "Brother, you have been around for a long time, but you still haven't made it clear, why is the murderer who strangled Bai Xiaomei's sister Yin De?" ”
