"The corpse spots are pale red, and the skin on the surface of the corpse has shrunken, expanded, and turned white due to long-term immersion in water, and these external features are very similar to drowning, but the deceased's hands are in a natural relaxed state, and there is no sign of grasping on the hands, and the nail gaps are also very clean, which does not conform to the characteristics of natural drowning."

"What does the second sister mean?"

"He killed and drowned." Yan Su asked how to remove the broken method on Yan Mutong's face: "If she is the third sister." ”

"What if?"

"Don't you think it's strange big brother?"

"What's strange?"

"The third sister's face is very strange, although long-term soaking will cause the deceased's face to swell and deform, but doesn't the eldest brother think that the third sister's face is a little deformed?"

"I don't see it." Yan Weilin looked at Yan Mutong's face that was obviously deformed: "To be honest, I don't really remember what the third sister looks like. She is different from Yun'er, although Yun'er is also a little willful, but she is used to socializing with people, although she was not close to me in the past, but when she met, she would always come over and call me a big brother. Tong'er hates my estrangement from my mother, and has liked to turn her back to me since she was a child. Therefore, all I have left in my mind are vague images of her appearance. ”

"Maybe it's me thinking too much, the murderer not only intended to kill her, but also deliberately made the scene look like suicide and drowning, so I shouldn't do anything else with this move."

"What did my sister say?"

"Nothing." Yan Suwen put things away: "Big brother, call a few girls to come in and freshen up the third sister." She is such a beautiful little girl, she must not want to leave in her current appearance, and she must not want to use her current appearance to meet her aunt. ”

"I see." No matter how he is not close to his mother and sister, Yan Weilin is still sad at this time.

"I asked my eldest brother to help me check the matter before, but I have an eyebrow?"

"Sister didn't say it, I forgot, I've found out."

"What about people?"

"Locked up in my yard."

"Let's take a look." Yan Suwen handed the small medicine box to Er Rong, who was waiting on the side: "You watch here, let those girls give their hands and feet to the third sister." ”

"Miss, don't worry." Er Rong carried the small medicine box and nodded solemnly.

The Moyun Hall where Yan Weilin lives is not far from Yan Suwen's Ning Xinzhai, and there are two children in front of him, one is called Yan Qi, who is not smiling, but he is a martial artist. Of course, this martial arts is compared to other small houses in the house. The other is named Yan Shu, a scholar equivalent to Yan Weilin, who is responsible for helping him sort out medical cases and the like. These two people can be regarded as one inside and one outside, one literate and one martial, Yan Suwen is the most common Yan Shu, because he often follows behind Yan Weilin. The one I saw today is indeed Yan Qi.

"It turns out that the two of them are twin brothers!"

"Yes, didn't the second sister know about it originally?"

"I don't know. In the past, I only knew that there were two people in front of my eldest brother, one was called Yan Qi and the other was Yan Shu, but I didn't know that these two people looked exactly the same. ”

"It looks the same at the rough, but if you look closely, you can immediately tell the difference between the two. Yan Qi is an elder brother, Xijing, but he is a martial arts practitioner. Yan Shu is a younger brother, happy and hilarious, but he is a scholar next to me. Moreover, Yan Qi likes to wear black clothes, and Yan Shu likes to wear blue. Yan Qi doesn't like to have ornaments on his clothes, but Yan Shu likes it very much. In terms of appearance, the two are indeed very similar, but Yan Qi has a single eyelid, Yan Shu has a double eyelid, and the eyes are bigger than Yan Qi's. ”

"Big brother is really observing."

"It's not a deliberate observation, if it were you, you've been with them since you were a child, you can tell these differences." Yan Weilin glanced at Yan Qi and asked, "What about people?" ”

Yan Qi held his sword and looked at the house behind him: "Stay inside." ”

"So obedient?" Yan Suwen felt that something was unusual.

"Miss, don't worry, she can't give birth to a moth." Yan Qi opened the door, and Yan Su asked to understand what she meant. A little girl of about fourteen or fifteen years old, dressed in maid costume, was tied up and thrown on the bed.

"Who taught you all this? My big brother? ”

"No, it was taught by the master when I was practicing martial arts before." Yan Qi didn't have any expression on his face.

"Oh, the master who taught Yan Qi to practice martial arts was originally a prison official of the Criminal Department, and because he injured his leg while performing official duties, he went home and opened a martial arts gym. At that time, I was still in my grandmother's side, and when my grandmother chose a scholar for me, she fell in love with the two brothers. Yan Qi has a steady temperament and can endure hardships, so his grandmother sent him to the martial arts hall to practice martial arts. Yan Shu, although he is clever, he has no longevity, and he is frizzy in doing things, so in order to sharpen his temperament, he let him read with me. Yan Weilin explained: "Second sister, you have been to the Criminal Department, so you naturally know what kind of place it is, and who are the people who can be on errands in it." Yan Qi's master, in addition to teaching him some physical strength, will also teach him some other things. For example, this bundles people. ”

"There's nothing wrong with learning more." Yan Suwen raised his feet and stepped into the house: "I just heard the silence in the house, and I was worried about whether this person would run away, or commit suicide in fear of sin." is so bound, don't say escape, even if there is poison in this mouth, you can't bite it. ”

"It's poison." Yan Qi spread out his hands.

"It's—"

"Red Pill." Yan Qi glanced at it: "A kind of poison used in the rivers and lakes, it is colorless and tasteless, and it is said that it is still sweet when you enter it." It is extremely toxic, and once it enters the viscera, it will kill immediately, and many people like to use it, including those corrupt officials in the DPRK and China. ”

"Your master told you this, too?"

Yan Qi nodded.

"The Criminal Department can collect a lot of money every year, and it is said that this red pill only costs one or two pieces of silver. The taste is good, the effect is good, the price is cheap, and it is easy to carry, so many people in Yecheng will prepare some. ”

"Feelings, this is still a regular stay at home, I don't know if we have it in the house."

"The Yan family doesn't need this." Yan Qi gathered his hands and put them away.

"That's right." Yan Su asked and nodded: "If the Yan family wants to die alone, they really don't need to use this red pill." ”

"Is the second sister going to be tried here?"

"No!" Yan Su asked and shook his head: "Big brother's Moyun Hall is used to study medical books and medical skills, and it is not suitable for torture. ”

"Torture?" Hearing these two words, Yan Weilin couldn't help but feel a chill on his back: "Doesn't the second sister just need to ask her?" ”

"Big brother thinks, if I ask, will she say?"

Yan Weilin and Yan Qi glanced at each other and shook their heads hesitantly.

"That's it." Yan Su asked and turned around: "Yan Qi, you have worked hard to carry her to the Yan family's dungeon." That dungeon, you should know where it is, right? This is the same place where I was last detained. ”

"Yan Qi knows." Yan Qi returned to the couch and resisted people at once: "Yan Qi was also locked up before. ”

"You've been locked up too?"

"It's not the eldest prince." Yan Qi carried the maid and walked straight past Yan Suwen.

"Yan Qi was imprisoned by my father when he was young. At that time, my relationship with my father was even more rusty than it is now, and my father couldn't reprimand me in front of my grandmother, so he could only take Yan Qi and Yan Shu and them lose their temper. Yan Qi is stubborn, and he is not afraid of his father, and he always protects me in front of him. His father was so angry that he had him locked up in a dungeon, most often for seven days. ”

"The eldest brother is going to let the eldest uncle keep Yan Qi so closed?"

"Of course not." Yan Weilin sighed: "I went to beg my grandmother, but my grandmother said that I shouldn't mention Yan Qi and them to talk, and I also went to my father in private, but the words are not speculative, except to make him more and more angry, I have no better way." ”

"The eldest prince also went to the dungeon, and he held his quilt and stayed in the dungeon for seven days." Yan Qi, who had already walked outside the door, explained lightly: "From then on, Yan Qi's life belongs to the eldest prince." ”

"Big brother really stayed for seven days?"

"In less than seven days, I begged my grandmother outside for a day, and then went to my father to argue for a long time, and finally I had no choice but to go to the dungeon with my quilt. My grandmother felt sorry for me, she was afraid that I would freeze to death, and that I would starve to death in the dungeon, so she took us all out. ”

"At that time, how old was the big brother?"

"Seven or eight years old, I can't remember." Yan Weilin looked at Yan Suwen's eyes: "Since then, the Yan family's dungeon has never locked up anyone. So, the last time my sister was locked up, I really didn't know. If I knew, I would have taken Yan Qi to smash the door of that dungeon. The Yan family is a doctor, how can this doctor set up a private dungeon, and the people who are imprisoned are their own relatives. ”

"What the eldest brother said is, if you are in charge of this Yan Mansion in the future, we will seal the dungeon. Now, I have to use this dungeon to interrogate this girl. Yan Su looked at Yan Qi's back and asked, "What is the name of this girl?" ”

Yan Qitou didn't reply, and gave three words: "I don't know." ”

Yanfu dungeon.

"Tell me, what's your name?"

"Pearl."

"The original name? I mean, that's what your original name is? ”

"Yes."

"Okay then." Yan Suwen clapped her hands, walked up to Zhu'er, and squatted down: "Now, can you tell me how the third lady of your family fell into that well?" ”

"What the second lady asked, Zhu'er didn't know how to answer."

"Just tell the truth, you don't have to deliberately process it, and you don't have to deliberately look for any words."

"Pearls don't know."

"Don't know? Can you tell me what happened to all the mud on your shoes and the broken leaves of these green bamboos? ”

"It's not Pearl's shoes."

"It's not yours, whose is it?"

"Pearls don't know." Zhu'er still insists on those five words as always.

"Pearl, don't test my patience. When I ask people, patience is very poor. ”

"Zhu'er really doesn't know, if the second lady doesn't believe it, you can go and ask, ask the sisters who often stay with Zhu'er, have they ever seen Zhu'er wear such shoes. Besides, Zhu'er's feet are small, and these shoes don't fit at all. ”
