Tang Zhutou and Zheng Tongzuo glanced at each other and said, "The deceased's name is Cai Laoshi, a native of Dongyu Village, Lulong County. Tobo was fifty-six years old, and his wife died young. Left behind a son and a daughter. The daughter married away from another county, and the son became a door-to-door son-in-law and went to a neighboring village.

At present, the son and grandson have fled south with the woman's family, and no one has been found to come back to collect the old man.

As far as I know, Cai Laoshi has been raising eels for many years, and many stalls in the county have received his eels, and there has never been eel poisoning. Moreover, the big war is imminent, Dongyu Village is ten rooms and nine empty, and Zheng Laoshi has no enemies......"

When Tang Zhutou said this, he glanced at Zheng Chengzuo.

Zheng Cheng made a salute and introduced the autopsy.

"The horrific examination found that there were no obvious resistance injuries on the deceased's body, there were no signs of struggle in the house, and when the body was found, it was hanging from the beams of the house.

Suicide by a cantilever beam?

Shi Yong narrowed his eyes.

Such a familiar death scene.

Shi Yong of the Imperial Prison, Yin Xu Jinyuan of Shuntian Mansion, and Yu Chang, the apprentice of Zhang Zhukuai......

I don't know why, Shi Yong suddenly felt a force of fear at this moment.

It's an instinctive reminder, as if the cells of her body are awakening her memories, or perhaps the sensitivity and alertness she has cultivated over time. It's an extremely subtle feeling, hard to describe in words, but when you see this familiar scene, you instinctively feel scared.

This fear also comes from Daikoku's manic restlessness.

Da Hei's appearance is very similar to the night in Wash Alley, it follows Shi Yong's side closely, not leaving an inch, as if there is a demon around her, Shi Yong can't see it, but it can see it. In Da Hei's eyes, this demon has killed many people, and Da Hei is afraid of the demon and wants to protect her, which is why he is so manic.

The wind blew, and Shi Yong was startled by his own thoughts.

Looking left and right, she touched the big black head, signaled it not to be afraid, and then said to Tang Zhutou:

"Can you show me the scene?"

Zheng Yanzuo glanced at her, his eyes were slightly deep, "Please!" ”

Tang Zhutou and Zheng Tongzuo took Shi Yong to the place where Cai Laoshi was hanging the beam, the beam of the hall house, the rope had been untied, and there was a crooked chair on the ground.

Shi Yong glanced at Zeng Wu.

Zeng Wu pointed and said, "When I came first, the old man hung here." ”

Shi Yong asked, "How high is the rope?" Can you hang it back up and I'll see? ”

All:......

Everyone is dead, the work and the head arrest have been concluded, the inquest text has been drawn, what is it for him to intervene again?

It can be seen that Tang Zhutou and Zheng Chengzuo are very dissatisfied. But Shi Yong had a cold face and didn't look at their faces at all.

"Hang it back, and I'll come back when I've seen the water tank."

There are eight or nine large water tanks in the yard, which are hewn out of whole stones, some are round and some are rectangular, and it is said that Cai Laoshi used them to raise eels.

The last bucket of yellow eels in the tank had been carried back to the barracks by Zeng Wu, and now the tank was empty, full of thick, jet-black silt, and a layer of foul-smelling green pings floated on it, and the water tank was surrounded by thick moss, which was clearly unused for a long time.

There is only one of the tanks, and the water in it is relatively clear.

Zeng Wu said that those eels were fished from this tank.

Raising eels for a living?

Shi Yong glanced at Zhu Jiu and smiled.

"Brother Jiu, I'm tired."

Zhu Jiu's face turned green when he saw her smile.

"What? You're not going to ask me ...... again."

"That's right." Shi Yong pointed to the cylinders solemnly, "You use a bamboo tube to help me sample a copy of the floating liquid in each cylinder." ”

Sampling?

It's a very fresh word, and it sounds very powerful.

But if you think about it, isn't it just for him to be a coolie?

Zhu Jiu snorted lowly, gritted his teeth secretly, and whispered:

"I'm my first-class guard."

Shi Yong nodded, "I have a command token." ”

Zhu Jiu's brain ached, "Ah Shi, you can't do this to me." Lord just asked me to protect you, not for me to accompany you to fool around, for you to send......"

Shi Yong nodded: "I have a command token." ”

Zhu Jiu took a deep breath, smelled the stench and covered his nose.

"You're ruthless!"

Zhu Jiu went out to pick bamboo, cut bamboo tubes, and used them for sampling.

Shi Yong got up with Da Hei and returned to the house.

The rope was hung on the beam again, and of course it was inconvenient for the corpse to be taken out and hung again, Tang Zhukuai just symbolically hung a quilt on it and motioned for Shi Yong to see.

"At the time, it was pretty much that."

"How much worse?" Shi Yong asked rhetorically.

Tang Zhutou was slightly stunned, and before he could speak, Shi Yong turned his head to look at Zheng Yanzuo again.

"How tall is Cai Laoshi?"

Zheng Qizuo was stunned, and replied in the future: "About five feet five...... Isn't it? ”

About touching? Not?

Shi Yong frowned unhappily, "Zheng Cheng is doing errands, and he is not careful." ”

After that, she walked back to the yard herself, opened the body bag, took the soft ruler made by Zheng Chen to measure, and then checked the corpse and walked back to the house, let Zeng Wu help her pull the rope, measured the distance from the rope to the chair, and sneered.

"Cai Laoshi's height, hanging on the rope, I'm afraid I won't be able to step on the chair, right?"

Zheng Chenzuo's face changed color slightly, and Tang Zhutou's face was also a little embarrassed.

In the chaos, a lonely old man died when he died. How did he die? Who killed it? No one cares, they don't want to be troubled, how would they expect to meet a more real person?

Tang Zhutou said: "Song guard, this ...... When people want to kill themselves, they can always think of a way. ”

Shi Yong turned to look at Tang Zhutou, and said seriously: "You can think of a way for me to try, how can I hang my neck so much beyond my height, and still be able to rub the chair over?" ”

Tang Zhutou closed his mouth and remained silent.

Shi Yong turned his head to look at Zheng Yanzuo and sneered.

"Tang Zhutou doesn't understand, Zheng Yanzuo won't be unable to see it, right? The position of the hanged deceased when he was suspended in the air was different, and the strangulation marks on the neck were very different.

The ditch is an important piece of evidence to distinguish between hangings and strangulations. For those who die by hanging, the focus is on the front of the neck, the body is suspended, and the sagging weight will make the rope deeply embedded between the hyoid bone and the thyroid cartilage, leaving obvious scars on the head and neck, and there will be almost no strangulation marks on the back of the neck. And on Cai Laoshi's neck, although the eight characters can also be seen, the strangulation marks are irregular, and there is no rope hanging strangulation marks, which is clearly strangled and then hung up. ”

Zheng Chengzuo's face was pale, and there was sweat on his forehead.

"This, this...... Forgive Zheng for being dazzled, and go for a re-examination. ”

"Humph! You have the audacity to do such inaction. ”

Shi Yong glanced at them.

"It was clearly that he killed him, and he was determined to commit suicide. Don't think that if you go to war, there will be no one to control you. It's good to know. ”

After that, she turned around and walked out, Zhu Jiu happened to come back from chopping bamboo, and when she saw her so majestic, she was stunned, and her head hurt so much.

One master is difficult enough to serve, how can there be an extra master out of thin air?

Tang Zhutou and Zheng Qizuo were frightened, and hurriedly re-inspected and made documents, but Shi Yong stopped talking to them, taught Zhu Jiu to take samples, stepped on the horse and left.

What to say, she said.

She shouldn't have more things, she doesn't have much.

Zeng Wu saw Shi Yong's majesty, and scolded Tang Zhutou and Zheng Tongzuo so much that he couldn't open his mouth, and he didn't dare to speak out. But when he returned to Lu Longsai's barracks and reported the matter related to the white horse Fuzhou and the captain, he boasted to people about Shi Yong's power.

Zhu Jiu took the stinking bamboo tube, returned to the camp and handed it to Shi Yong.

"What do I think you're going to do?"

Shi Yong didn't do anything, just asked him to catch the gray squirrel.

Zhu Jiu is so angry.

Fortunately, during the day, he poked a rat's nest and found the nest of the gray squirrel, otherwise where would he find it?

When he went out angrily to catch the gray squirrels back, Shi Yong lined them up, and asked him to pour the silt collected from the water tank of Cai Laoshi's house one by one, and in less than a moment, two of the little gray squirrels died.

Shi Yong dissected several small gray squirrels on the spot, and not only found that their death was the same as that of the gray squirrels with eel poisoning, but also made a surprising discovery.

"I know what's poisoned!"

Zhu Jiu was busy for a while, wanting to know the result more than anyone else.

"What is it?"

Shi Yong glanced at him, and his eyes suddenly darkened.

A thought flashed through her head and she made an astonishing decision.

"I've got to get to the adults right away."

Zhu Jiu went to clean up her things when she saw her, and was startled, followed up, and kept rubbing her hands, "Ah Shi, what are you doing?" Do you know where the adults are? Are you going to look for it now? Can't you tell me first? Do you have to be the first to tell the adults? ”

Zhu Jiu followed Shi Yong around.

Shi Yong ignored him and kept hunched over to take things.

Suddenly, she didn't know what to think, straightened up, turned her head to look at Zhu Jiu, and said sharply: "Brother Jiu goes out first, I want to change my clothes." If it's too late, I'm afraid that the adults will be in danger. ”

Zhu Jiu was stunned, "Why?" ”

Shi Yong was difficult to explain, and he didn't have time to explain it to him.

"Are you going?"

"Go!"

Zhu Jiu paused slightly, ran out quickly, and helped her close the door.
