Chapter Seventy-One: Step Shake Tassel
"What's going on? Who is the murderer? Di Qing hurriedly asked.
"I know the murderer, but there are still some mysteries." Li Canghai whispered, and the two quickly came to the deceased.
Di Qing glanced at the corpse and said with certainty: "The wound is half a finger long and an inch wide, judging from the shape of the wound, it should be held by someone holding a dagger and inserting it diagonally into the chest from top to bottom." Hey, there are pinch marks on the neck of the deceased? Could it be that the deceased was stabbed to death while being choked by the neck? ”
Li Canghai looked at her dumbfounded, and couldn't help but admire: "Qing'er, when did your mind become so meticulous?" However, there is one more suspicion that you have not found. ”
Di Qing heard Li Canghai's praise, and she didn't feel happy in her heart.
In fact, she knew that all she could find was the superficial injuries. The way to solve the case depends on her brain and talent, and her talent is not reasoning, but martial arts.
"What's the doubt?" Di Qing was a little curious, all the superficial scars would definitely not escape her eyes, which was also the experience she had accumulated when she walked the rivers and lakes.
Li Canghai turned over the corpse and pointed to the corpse's spine.
The person who practices martial arts definitely does not know much worse than Lang Zhong's understanding of human bones and acupuncture points, and she can see at a glance that one of the deceased's spines is out of place.
"This ...... How so? Di Qing was surprised, she reached out and touched the spine a few times, and her face suddenly became solemn.
Seeing the change in her face, Li Canghai immediately asked, "Qing'er, what did you find?" ”
"This bone joint was forcibly broken by someone with finger force, and judging from the degree of dislocation of the bone joint, the martial arts used seem to be hard skills such as 'dragon claw hand'." Di Qing glanced at him and said seriously: "The person who started should be a martial arts master." ”
Li Canghai was silent, Di Qing's martial arts attainments were very high, and he believed that Di Qing would never be mistaken.
In fact, he had such an idea early on, but he had limited knowledge of martial arts, which made Di Qing come to judge.
Now he knows who the murderer is and knows the murderer's killing methods, but there is still one suspicion that he has not ascertained, that is, the murderer's motive for killing.
Di Qing saw that he was deep in thought again, so he surrounded the corpse by himself.
After a while, Di Qing suddenly exclaimed: "Canghai, do you think the posture of the deceased's left hand is very strange?" ”
Li Canghai was closing his eyes and thinking about the case, and when he heard her words, he said casually: "Maybe it was caused by struggling before death." ”
"No, his fingers are naturally curved, as if he is pointing at something." Di Qing shook his head, looked in the direction of the deceased's index finger, and searched over there.
There was a cabinet in the direction of the deceased's finger, and Di Qing squatted on the ground and groped for the floor under the cabinet with her hand.
After a moment, she suddenly exclaimed with joy: "Canghai, what do you see I have found?" ”
Li Canghai glanced at it disappreciatively, he found that Di Qing was holding a jade pendant in his hand, and after he saw the jade pendant clearly, the whole person suddenly stood upright.
He snatched the jade pendant, looked at it over and over, and finally showed a smile on his cold face.
"Qing'er, you are such a genius! In time, you will definitely be able to become a world-famous goddess! Li Canghai suddenly hugged her, kissed her hard, and then ran outside hahaha.
Di Qing was stunned instantly, she only reacted for a long time, touched her lips, and suddenly a flush appeared on her face.
The first floor of the inn, under the leadership of Chang Tou, was quickly arranged into a temporary public hall.
Li Canghai was sitting precariously, holding tea with a cold face, Di Qing and Chang Tou stood on both sides, and eight officials holding Pu knives lined up on both sides, quite a bit of the majesty of the yamen.
"This official is the order of Zhengyang County, and if there is a murder case, now the court will be heard, and everyone must tell the truth, if there is a lie, it will be severely punished!" Li Canghai glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice.
Chao Chang Tou made a look, Chang Tou immediately understood, and then, Liu Cuier and Zhuo Bufan were brought up.
Li Canghai took a sip of water and asked lightly, "Liu Cuier, the deceased is your husband?" ”
"Lord Hui, it is the husband of the slave family." Liu Cuier knelt on the ground and replied.
"Liu Cui'er! You are so bold that you dare to kill your husband, how did you kill people and commit murder, and you are not quick to recruit from the truth! Li Canghai's voice suddenly raised a lot, and he shouted with a cold face.
This shout startled everyone, not only the onlookers, but even Liu Cuier was stunned.
"My lord, I am wronged! The slave family has never killed anyone, how could the slave family kill their husbands, wronged, my lord! Liu Cui'er suddenly whimpered and sobbed.
Chang Tou was stunned, he scratched his head and said, "My lord, are you mistaken, how can this little woman kill someone?" ”
Li Canghai snorted coldly, he stared at Liu Cuier and shouted, "Do you think that if you don't admit it, the official will have nothing to do with you?" ”
"Your Excellency has wronged! The slave family really didn't kill anyone! Liu Cuier shook her head desperately, crying pear blossoms with rain.
Chang Tou looked a little unbearable, he wanted to speak for her, but he was shocked by Li Canghai's gloomy expression, and he sighed helplessly.
"Hmph, you slut really doesn't cry when you don't see the coffin, look at what this is?" Li Canghai took out a string of silver tassels from his sleeve, threw it in front of Liu Cui'er, and said coldly.
When Liu Cuier saw the silver needle tassel, her face instantly turned pale.
"This thing was found from the hands of the dead, do you recognize it?" Li Canghai's eyes were like torches, staring at her tightly.
Liu Cui'er's breathing became short, and she hurriedly turned to look at Zhuo Bufan, giving him a look like a distress look.
"This is the step on your head to shake the tassel, but when you commit the murder, you are dragged by the dead in your hands. What else do you have to say? Li Canghai slapped the teacup and shouted.
"My lord, this is just an ordinary tassel, how do you determine that your sister-in-law is the murderer?" Zhuo Bufan walked out at this time and said loudly.
Li Canghai put down the teacup, as if he had expected him to ask this question, so he said: "This tassel and the step shake on Liu Cui'er's head are one, as long as you see whether its fracture is consistent, you can determine it." After a pause, he leaned forward and said lightly: "What's more, she said before that she was in the toilet when the deceased died. So the question is, since she is going to the toilet, why did the step tassel on her head fall into the hands of the deceased? ”
Di Qing's face was slightly cold, and she said coldly on the side: "If the deceased didn't run to the thatched house and snatched her tassels, then she was lying." ”
Zhuo Bufan was speechless for a while, he looked at Liu Cui'er who looked frightened, and said in a deep voice: "My brother was killed, and my sister-in-law was inevitably a little panicked, and it is understandable that she said the wrong thing in fear." ”
"Oh, but when the official asked, she was thinking clearly, her tone was steady, and there was no hint of panic." Li Canghai couldn't help but sneer: "Do you think that this official is blind?" ”
