Wen Xiaoyun's eyes were deep, "Mother Su found the Wang family's courtyard for the first time, and it was under the leadership of others that she found Su Xuexin's place of residence, although it usually only takes half a day to arrive, but how can you not eat, drink or rest for half a day?"

So when she found her son's place to live, it took almost the whole day.

After directly hitting the scene of her son's tragic death, she should naturally be crying and mourning. He tossed back and forth with the yamen all night, set off at dawn the next day, ate along the way, bought a lot of tools for revenge, and returned to the royal courtyard with great accuracy without the guidance of others. It should have taken longer than the first time, but in fact the two journeys took almost the same amount of time.

This seems reasonable on the surface, but as long as you dig a little deeper, you can know that this is almost impossible for Su Mu at that time. ”

"But the testimony of the witness is there," Yin Nuo's eyes widened, and he analyzed in disbelief, "There can only be two possibilities, one is that the witness told a lie, and the other is that the witness told the truth." But if it is true, it will be contrary to Su Mu's. ”

Wen Xiaoyun's expression was even more solemn, "I'm more inclined to the second possibility, Su Mu told a lie, she didn't go down the mountain alone, and there was a transparent person hiding by her side." This person helped her find the way together, hurried the way, and helped her do everything in the strange Teng County. ”

A huge bead of sweat immediately trickled down from Yin Nuo's forehead, and he stared straight at Wen Xiaoyun, full of surprise, "A transparent person who is invisible? Only Su Mu knows, but others don't know? ”

Wen Xiaoyun bit her lip, her brain was running rapidly, "This person has not appeared in the sight of the government or the people around the crime scene, otherwise he will definitely be recorded by the government." Later, when he rushed back to the palace from the scene of the crime to take revenge, he should have deliberately avoided the eyes of the world. ”

Yin Nuo: "Who could that be?" ”

Wen Xiaoyun shook her head, "I don't dare to make a direct conclusion now, and I need further evidence to support my guess." As she spoke, she raised her head and continued the previous topic, "Now, there is one last question left, can the family of the royal palace be found to testify?" What was Su's mother's attitude after she was arrested? ”

Yin Nuo raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, recalled for a moment, and continued: "The dismissed servant of the Wang Family Courtyard did not appear in court to testify, because after finding the murderer Su Mu, all parties felt that the case was very clear. There is no need to look for other people who have little to do with it.

The most important testimony in Wang Baoyan's murder case is that of the woman of the neighbor of the Wang family. After discovering Wang Baoyan's body, Tengxian Yamen began to look around for all kinds of suspicious traces. It didn't take much to ask the woman's head.

According to her testimony, the Tengxian Yamen quickly circled the suspicion in her mouth, wrapped it with a bow and arrow, and hurried to bump into one of her old women.

After that, the prefect of Wang took a few of us to hurry to Teng County. With cat ears and a big beard, I searched around for news, and finally captured Su Mu in a Taoist temple.

After Su's mother was arrested, she straightforwardly explained all the details of the case, and then hanged herself in prison without waiting for the yamen to be convicted and sentenced. ”

In the end, Yin Nuo let out a long sigh, "Even if Governor Wang himself personally went to Teng County to supervise the handling of the case, he didn't find any flaws in it at that time. ”

"By the way," Wen Xiaoyun asked again, "What about my uncle?" Didn't he come to Teng County at that time? ”

Yin Nuo shook his head, "My father was investigating the case elsewhere at the time, and when he received an urgent letter from the prefect of the palace and returned to the city, the case was already closed. ”

Wen Xiaoyun lowered her head and thought about it, "This case is far from being as simple as it seems on the surface. ”

Yin Nuo grabbed Wen Xiaoyun's arm and asked eagerly: "What do you guess, there is no one else at this time, so don't sell it, just say it." ”

Wen Xiaoyun raised her hand and patted Yin Nuo's hand as if soothingly, and cut straight to the point, "My inference starts from Su Mu's motives.

Of course, Su Mu's motive for killing was very sufficient, but why didn't she leave more traces of impulsive killing on Wang Baoyan's corpse? And why would they risk being discovered by others and painstakingly throw the body into the well? ”

Yin Nuo held Wen Xiaoyun's hand with his backhand, and said with some excitement: "These two issues seem to be unrelated, but they are actually one problem."

After figuring out the truth about Su Mu's corpse, the reason why she chose this murder method was also clear. ”

Wen Xiaoyun's eyes were also a little excited, "That's right, that's it."

Let's start with the act of sinking corpses. There are generally two motives for submerging a body in well water. The first is to hide the body, to hide the traces of the murder, so as to delay the reaction of the world and buy as much time as possible for himself to escape.

The second is to borrow the cold property of well water to keep the body fresh and disguise the real time of death of the deceased. ”
