Chapter Ninety-Eight: A Cleverly Laid Out Murder Plan Above

After Liu Hua finished speaking, he looked at Huang Tianxiao in front of him, he paused slightly, and then continued to analyze: "After I examined Zhang Jun's body, I knew that he died of murder, not suicide.

The flaws came out of Zhang Jun's two hands, because Zhang Jun's two hands were so clean, there was nothing in his fingernails except for some pieces of hemp rope.

However, you don't want to think about it, there are still five or six green bricks under the feet of the deceased, and these green bricks are still sticking to the dirt on both sides because they were temporarily moved from the surrounding graves, and when you touch them with your hands, the dirt is all over your hands.

What if the deceased had really moved these bricks before he died? Why are his hands so clean? Why is there no black mud in the nails? Obviously, those green bricks that looked like the feet of the deceased were not moved by Zhang Jun himself.

Seeing this, I knew that Zhang Jun's death was murder, although I suspected that this matter was related to you, but I was not completely sure, and it was not until after Li Mu disappeared that I concluded that Zhang Jun's death was related to you. ”

When Liu Hua analyzed this, Huang Tianxiao nodded, and then interjected: "The vice president is right again, Zhang Jun was indeed killed by me.

After killing Miaohui, I changed my clothes and stood next to the county office. When I saw Zhang Jun leading a few arresters to go out quickly, I knew that Miaohui's body had been discovered.

I know the procedures of the county government for handling cases, if there is a homicide in the jurisdiction, the first task is to protect the scene, and the second is to carry out investigations, but if the nature of the case is beyond the scope of one's ability, it must be reported to the superiors.

Zhang Jun's ability I know, except for the main thing that can't be done, the rest of the things are all done, with his two hands to crack the headless female corpse case, it is simply a fantasy, so I conclude that after he sees the scene, he will definitely go through the procedure, that is, first go back to the county yamen to report, and then go to the prefect's yamen to report the case.

So I waited for him to appear at the gate of the county office, and as I expected, that is, about half an hour, Zhang Jun hurried back to the county office, and when he came out of the county office, I showed up and stopped him.

After seeing me, Zhang Jun was very surprised, and after being stunned for a moment, he asked me what was the matter? In order to trick him out, I made up a reason, I said that Tong Zhen, the chief catcher, was a guest at my house, and asked him to visit the chief catcher with me.

When Zhang Jun heard this, instead of being suspicious, he was very happy, and he couldn't wait to go home with me immediately, I was worried that walking with Zhang Jun would attract the attention of others, so I found an excuse to take the first step.

I instructed Zhang Jun that the chief catcher was here for a secret visit, and asked him not to make a noise about the matter, so as not to cause the dissatisfaction of the chief catcher, and after speaking, I went to the distance and hid to see if Zhang Jun had followed?

But I didn't expect that after Zhang Jun heard my words, in order to show his respect for the chief catcher, he went back and changed into a new clothes, and after wearing a new one, he walked in the direction of my house.

When he was about to come to my village, I stopped him outside the village, and lied that the chief catcher had heard about the headless female corpse, and went to the upper reaches of the river alone to find the source of the corpse.

As soon as he heard that he could connect with the chief catcher, Zhang Jun suddenly came to his senses, and without thinking about it, he drove the horse and ran with me towards the mass grave, and after arriving at the mass grave, he dismounted and looked around.

Seeing that there was no head catcher, Zhang Jun already had some bad premonitions, glanced at me, and wanted to run back on horseback, how could I let him get his wish, and restrained him with one body, and then strangled him with his hands.

Killing people is as simple as that, after strangling Zhang Jun to death, I took out the rope I had brought with me, tied the rope to the choke marks of my fingers, and then dropped his body on the crooked neck tree.

Then, I brought a few green bricks from the surrounding graves, stacked the green bricks at Zhang Jun's feet, and when the green bricks could reach the soles of Zhang Jun's feet, I was pushing the green bricks down and faking a scene.

After doing this, I rode home, and as you said, when I got home, I found some clay and purple mud in the yard and house, and at that time, I already knew that Zhang Jun had sent someone to Yangzhou Mansion to report the case.

Based on my understanding of the chief catcher, after he heard about this case, he would definitely rush to the canal to investigate the scene in person, and once the chief catcher came to Canal County, he would definitely come to my house as a guest.

I was worried that the chief catcher would be suspicious when he saw the clay and purple mud, so I cleaned the house carefully, changed into new clothes and waited for the chief catcher to appear, but I didn't expect that you, Vice President Liu, would come with you.

Through simple contact, I found that the vice president was thoughtful, so when he acted in the later stage, he was a little more cautious, but even so, he still showed flaws.

Just now, the vice president said that he suspected me because of Li Mu's disappearance? But in this link, I asked myself if there was any mistake, I don't know what the vice president locked me on? ”

"Smell." After saying this, seeing a trace of puzzlement on Huang Tianxiao's face, Liu Hua explained lightly: "When I went to Li Mu for the second time, I found that there was a smell of herbs in his office.

Afterwards, Tian Xu, who was in the same office as Li Mu, came over and explained that it was because Li Mu often helped his seriously ill wife boil medicine, and over time, he always had a smell of herbs on his body.

In fact, this sentence can also be applied to you, some time ago, because you often helped your father boil medicine, so you also have a smell of herbs on your body, but you can't smell it yourself.

When we went to Li Mu's house to look for Li Mu, we saw the kind of herbs that his wife often took at his house, and we also smelled the smell of herbs, which was very strange, the smell of herbs was not the same as the smell I smelled in Li Mu's office.

Do you remember that time when you came back late because you went out on an errand? At that time, because you didn't come back, I had to divide the labor with the chief catcher, serving your sick old father to eat and drink medicine, at that time, the chief catcher was responsible for cooking, and I was responsible for helping your father make herbs.

It was the first time I boiled herbs, and I was worried that the herbs would be spoiled, so I kept standing by the medicine jar, smelling the herbs and checking the heat, and I still remember the smell of the herbs.

When I went to find Li Mu with the chief catcher, although the smell of herbs in the room was already very faint, I still smelled it, and when I smelled the familiar smell of herbs in Li Mu's office, I knew that you had gone to find Li Mu.

Do you remember our division of labor at that time? You go to the rich gentry's house to consult those nuns and ask them if they know a nun about 30 years old, and I go back to the county government with the chief catcher to find Li Mu to understand the situation.

At that time, you should be in the house of those rich gentry in the county seat, instead of going to the county government to find Li Mu, if I am not wrong, the headless male corpse wearing your clothes should be Li Mu, right? ”
