Chapter 2 Trapped in Prison

Li Canghai looked up and saw a man who looked like a county order coming from a distance with a few guards.

The county man went straight to the mountain temple, he glanced at the scene, and suddenly shouted, "Who let you enter the scene of the crime?" Don't leave yet! ”

The villagers crowded in the temple were shouted by the county and withdrew from the temple one after another.

Li Canghai took the opportunity to look at him a few more times, and said in his heart that this county Cheng still knew that he was protecting the scene of the crime, so he should not be a foolish official, maybe he could prove his innocence.

After a brief understanding of the situation, the county Cheng looked back and forth in the temple again, and then conducted an autopsy.

"Master Di, the little girl died so miserably, you have to be the master of the people's wife, woo woo ......." The old woman threw herself in front of the county and cried out heartbroken.

Di Huai picked up the old woman and comforted: "Old man, don't worry, this official will find out the murderer and give you justice." ”

"My lord, what else is there to investigate, that is, he killed Jing'er! Poor Jing'er is going to get married today, but she didn't expect to suffer such a bad luck! The old woman beat her chest and paused, pointed at Li Canghai and cried.

Di Huai's eyes lit up, he looked at Li Canghai coldly, and said sharply: "Who are you, where are you, why did you appear in Xiaoyang Village, and why did you kill people?" ”

It was a matter of his own life and death, Li Canghai also became dignified, he had just been reborn here, and he didn't want to be charged with murder.

"Back to my lord, in Xia Li Canghai, Yanzhou people's family, I missed the hostel because I was in a hurry, so I came to Xiaoyang Village to rest. But I didn't kill anyone, I hope you will see it! ”

"You said you didn't kill anyone, but is there any evidence to prove it?" Di Huai's eyes widened, and he shouted very majestically.

"This ...... Not really. Li Canghai's brows furrowed, and he said with a headache: "Although I hid in the temple, I kept sleeping, and I didn't know that someone had been killed until I was caught by them." ”

The village elder on the side angrily leaned on his crutches and said tremblingly: "Your Excellency, don't listen to his nonsense." This mountain temple has been locked from the outside since sending Jing Ya in last night. What's more, there are still people who keep vigil outside the temple and do not see anything unusual. But when we went to the temple this morning, the lock was still locked outside the door, and there was only one key. ”

Di Huai nodded and muttered: "Yes, I have seen that the windows in the temple are closed, and there is no trace of prying, unless the lock is broken, others will not be able to enter." ”

Li Canghai screamed in his heart that it was not good, he still just knew that the situation was like this, and everything this old man said was very unfavorable to him.

Sure enough, after Di Huai pondered for a while, he raised his eyebrows, pointed at Li Canghai and said angrily: "Bold thief, it is rude for you to stay in the temple overnight." It's hateful that you don't want to be grateful, and you actually harm people's lives, which is really hateful. Left and right, take back the county government with me, and the official will ascend to the court to announce the verdict on a certain day! ”

Sentence? As soon as he heard the verdict, Li Canghai panicked.

"Slow down, adult!" It was a matter of life and death, and Li Canghai realized that only he could save his life.

"My lord, when I first arrived in Xiaoyang Village, I had no grudge against the deceased, so why did I want to kill her? I have no motive to kill her! ”

The so-called 'backing the mountain', putting his life in the hands of a county magistrate he didn't know at all, which was unreliable in itself, Li Canghai decided to use the criminal investigation knowledge he had learned in his previous life to prove his innocence.

This sentence made Di Huai hesitate, there must always be a motive for killing, not to mention that he is polite and polite, and he does not look like a vicious person.

Li Canghai breathed a long sigh of relief, and his heart had a door.

He calmed down for a moment, and then said, "If I kill someone, why do I still hide in the temple, why don't I escape at night?" ”

Di Huai seemed to feel that what he said made some sense, his face softened a lot, and motioned for him to continue.

With permission, Li Canghai's thinking quickly turned.

"And one last thing, you say I killed someone, so where is the murder weapon? Where is the victim's head? Li Canghai listed the mysteries in an orderly manner, he looked at the village elder and said, "Did you rush into the temple and find the murder weapon and the head of the deceased?" ”

The village elder was stunned, he shook his head and said, "I really haven't found this." Perhaps, you may be able to hide it. ”

Li Canghai sighed, and then said: "The mountain temple is only the size of a palm, except for the god platform, there are some sundries left, the entire temple is clear at a glance, where can I hide?" ”

The village elder thought about it, and it was indeed as he said, the mountain temple couldn't hide things at all, let alone a striking human head.

"Sophistry, it's all sophistry! If Jing Yatou wasn't harmed by you, could she have been harmed by the mandrill demon? The old man seemed to think that he was the murderer, and he trembled with anger.

Li Canghai shook his head, this was obviously an old stubborn, arguing with him was tantamount to wasting time, he simply looked at Di Huai.

Di Huai pondered for a long time, and finally said: "The village elder is angry for the time being, what he said is not unreasonable. The investigation of the case is based on real evidence, and without evidence, the county cannot convict him. ”

Di Huai paused, and he continued: "What's more, there was a lot of blood around the deceased, and there was no blood on his feet, which means that the deceased was not by the deceased's side before he died. ”

This sentence made Li Canghai look at Di Huai with admiration, and this person was also meticulous in his observation.

The deceased's head was cut off, and a large amount of blood must have spurted out of his neck, but there was not a trace of blood on his body.

When Di Huaineng said this, he basically ruled out the possibility that he was a murderer.

"Your Excellency! I've been sleeping behind the idol, and it's impossible to kill without blood. Li Canghai's face finally relaxed, and he said excitedly.

Di Huai's face was a lot soothed, but his brows were twisted into Sichuan characters.

He ordered everyone to let Li Canghai go, and said, "This official will not detain you for the time being, but you are still suspicious. Until this case is solved, you are not allowed to leave Xiaoyang Village. ”

Li Canghai also looked solemn, he nodded, and muttered: "My lord, this case is not only about the innocence of Zaixia, but also about a human life. If the adult does not give up, can I cooperate with the adult to investigate the case? ”

Di Huai glanced at him in surprise, and from his previous words, it could be seen that he was a thoughtful person, and it should be helpful to have his assistance and the case.

Di Huai thought for a moment and nodded: "You are a suspect in this case, so it stands to reason that you cannot participate in the case." However, the county has opened up and agreed with you to investigate the case. I hope you can wholeheartedly assist the county, find the real culprit as soon as possible, and give you justice. ”

Li Canghai nodded heavily, and said in his heart, I want to see which bastard framed me, and I have to beat him all over the ground to find teeth.

At this time, he had completed the autopsy and came to report the results, and many villagers gradually gathered around.

"How's the corpse doing?"

"Back to my lord, the time of the deceased's death should be between the ugly hour and the midnight last night, the deceased has no other injuries on his body, the neck scars are smooth, and he should have been beheaded by a sharp weapon such as a machete."

"What else have you discovered?" Di Huai asked with a frown.

"There is also the fact that the deceased seems to have been humiliated." He replied.

As soon as these words came out, it seemed to explode among the villagers, and everyone showed expressions of disbelief.

Di Huai suddenly felt that the matter was serious, he calmed the villagers, and then looked at Li Canghai.

Li Canghai felt that he should stand up at this time, and it was necessary for him to give everyone an explanation, after all, he was in the temple from beginning to end.

"It's a strange thing, I didn't hear anything after I fell asleep. Can you be sure of the humiliation of the deceased? ”

He was a little confused, and asked suspiciously, "Do you mean the specific hour?" ”

Li Canghai shook his head and said: "It's not the hour, I mean, whether her humiliation was before or after death." ”

He was a little embarrassed and said: "The woman's physical examination needs to be examined by the sitting mother, and I can't judge the specific situation." ”

Di Huai looked at him suspiciously, not understanding why he suddenly asked this, so he asked, "This...... Is there a difference? ”

"If the deceased was humiliated before death, it is very likely that it was a love killing." With a large amount of research on criminology, Li Canghai is keenly aware of the slightest clue.

"We can guess that the deceased had made a personal agreement with someone for life before his death, but now he is about to get married, and the person who married him is not the person who has a personal life agreement with her, and then the person has a grudge, so he does such a heart-wrenching thing."

Li Canghai's words shocked everyone, but this is a hypothesis.

"According to you, why did that man take the life of the deceased when he loved her so much?" Di Huai's brows tightened a little tighter, and he asked suspiciously.

Li Canghai shrugged his shoulders: "Maybe the murderer thinks that what he can't get, others can't even think of." ”

"And what if you are humiliated after death?" Di Huai pursed his lips, as if he felt a little uncomfortable with this sentence.

A creepy scene instantly appeared in Li Canghai's mind, and he shuddered violently.

"If he was humiliated after death, it can only mean that the murderer is a perverted murderer."

After Li Canghai finished speaking, he instantly got goosebumps.

Rape corpse? You wouldn't do such a perverted thing if you were a normal person, would you?

Di Huai pondered, and after a moment he asked, "Does this have anything to do with the murderer?" ”

Li Canghai touched his nose, and said in his heart, Master Di's mind didn't seem to have turned a corner.

Sighing helplessly, Li Canghai said firmly: "My lord, whether the humiliation is before or after death, it shows one problem, that is, the murderer is a mentally ill person. ”

As a county magistrate, Di Huai has judged many cases, and Li Canghai said that he quickly understood.

"What you say makes sense, but it's just speculation. Also, how do you know for sure that the killer must be someone with a heart disease? And not the bandits? ”
