Song Ning wanted to open the coffin, not one, but seventeen in a row.

The city is full of sensations.

The people all gathered at the Tang family's cemetery, wondering how Song Ning would examine so many corpses.

This is a big scene, and I have never heard of anyone who opened the coffin so much at one time.

What's more, after three years, is it still useful in opening the coffin?

Everyone poked their heads out to see, but they were afraid.

The coffins of Tang Jiao's brothers, the two wives, the children, and the maid and wife buried nearby were all determined by Tang Yun and surrounded with hemp rope.

Everyone talked about the Tang family's case in the past three years.

Someone whispered: "This is all white bones, right?" ”

"It must be, it's been so long, it's rotten."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a corpse picked up from the coffin by the people in the torture hall in front of him, and someone exclaimed, "It's not white bones." ”

"Of course it's not white bones, the adults said that if the corpse is turned into white bones, according to the degree of sealing of the coffin and the soil moisture, it is generally more than five or six years."

The smell is not very obvious, everyone can see it from afar, the corpses of the torture hall are up one by one, and then Lord Song inspects, Zhao Zhutou records on the side, Shen Zhutou is busy reburying the corpse, and then there are people who volunteer to help fill the pit.

When inspecting the two Tang Jiao brothers, Lord Song stayed the longest, and someone said, "Is the adult cutting meat?" ”

"It should be, cut the flesh and see the wounds on the bones." There is humanity.

"Actually, if you look at the injury, you can't tell who is the murderer and who is not, right?" Everyone can't imagine that the corpse is rotten like this, and what else can be found.

Unless it is poisoned, the bones are black.

Because the surface of the corpse was decomposed, only a layer of fat was left on the surface, and no useful value could be seen from these, so Song Ning could only peel off the fat along the traces of the knife wounds.

After peeling it off, try to look at the scratches on the bone.

According to the strength of the murderer at that time, there were bound to be marks on the bones.

This is also the purpose of Song Ning's coffin.

"There it is." She said to Shen Wenyu, "Give me the candle." ”

Shen Wenyu raised the red umbrella again, and Song Ning used the light to determine the direction of the injury.

On Tang Jiao's corpse, a knife wound crossed the right shoulder and went down to the left, stopping at the five or six rib gaps, Song Ning put the candle flame aside, continued to peel it down, and stopped at the ribs.

"Shen Zhutou and Qiu are coming to see you." Song Ning didn't call Zhao Yi, she was still afraid that he would be disgusting for this kind of thing.

To be able to stand here and record her is already a breakthrough.

"How?" Shen Wenyu stepped forward, Qiu also looked closely, Song Ning said, "You watched the knife wound, which gradually became shallow and broke off here, why?" ”

Song Ning has a judgment, but he still wants to ask them to assist in the judgment.

"It's left-handed." Autumn tilted his head and gestured, "However, it doesn't seem to be very easy to use a knife. ”

Shen Wenyu bowed his head: "The position of the mouth is obviously paused, which means that the person who uses the knife is not smooth." ”

"Look at the line from top to bottom." Song Ning pointed to the position of the sternum, "The traces have obviously drifted a little." With the speed and force of swinging the knife, the blade actually floated. ”

Qiu said, "My lord, I'll try." ”

Song Ning bowed his head.

Autumn went and grabbed a wooden stake and plunged it into the ground.

He held a knife in his left hand and slashed at the stake diagonally.

"It's not smooth either!" Song Ning said.

Zhao Yi, who was holding the autopsy behind him, said: "This is obviously a person with a knife in his right hand, pretending to be left-handed." ”

"It fits your reasoning in the banquet room."

"Hmm." Song Ning said, "Combined with the empty house rented before, it is completely certain that this is a premeditated and well-targeted misfortune." ”

Meaning, the murderer planned for at least three months to create such a case by using the Tang Mansion as the target and Matsuyama as a scapegoat.

The murderer was successful and escaped with all his might.

Even, let them re-investigate until now, they are still able to keep killing people and killing people, confusing the public and trying to continue to get away with it.

There are enough arguments and evidence to clear Matsuyama's name.

But what about the murderer's?

The murderer was too shrewd, and in the process of killing, he did not leave any traces of his own.

"I'll continue." Song Ning then went down to check the rest.

Everyone was looking at that side.

Each corpse was raised and put back in.

Lord Song stood in front of the corpses of the two children and did not move for a long time.

"Lord Song is also very sad, the youngest of the Tang family is only five or six years old."

"Alas, iniquity."

Such young children, even if the murderer does not kill them, they cannot pose a threat to the murderer.

Song Ning squatted in front of the two small corpses, and she remembered the record of the two children in the file, each of which was killed in the abdomen.

He was a member of the Yamen at that time, and he is no longer in office.

This person's autopsy Song Ning has seen it many times, and his level is not particularly bad, but he is not a patient person, and the more he gets to the end, the more he will be fooled.

After he checked a few adults, when he came to the children, it was obviously a lot perfunctory.

There is no superfluous description other than a fatal stab in the abdomen.

"What is this?" Suddenly, Shen Wenyu saw a stone at the bottom of the coffin, and he said, "My lord, come and see." ”

The corpse got up and went out, and it was not found just now, and it was difficult to determine after it was displaced.

Song Ning picked up the stone and called out to Tang Yun: "Is this stone a burial companion you put in the coffin?" ”

Tang Yun glanced at it from afar and replied, "My lord, the villain arranged a few pieces of cloth and a string of copper coins at that time, and did not put these things. ”

Song Ning bowed his head: "It's not a burial but it's in the middle, it should be swallowed by the child." ”

This is the coffin of the eldest son, the child is thirteen years old, it should not be eaten by mistake, she wiped the stone clean, raised her eyebrows slightly and handed it back to Shen Wenyu: "Look at it." ”

He looked at it and handed it to Zhao Yi, and Zhao Yi said to Song Ning after reading it: "This child is smarter than his parents." ”

"It is also the first suspicion that has the value of this stone at this moment." Shen Wenyu said with a smile.

Song Ning patted the child's head and said with a smile: "Good boy! ”

If there is an afterlife, I wish you a safe and prosperous life,

"Take it." Song Ning took off his gloves.

Everyone put the body back in the coffin, and then put it back in the grave, and as the last handful of soil fell, she smiled and said to everyone, "It's hard work for everyone today." ”

The people who volunteered to help smiled and said, "Your Excellency is too polite, you don't have enough manpower, we should come to help." ”

"That's still something to be thankful for." Song Ning said with a smile, "Let's go, go to Zhang Biao's grave." ”

Zhang Zhichao agreed, but he had no choice.

Zhang Biao's grave is not far from here, and everyone gathers over there again.

When the coffin was opened, the degree of decay of the corpse was no different from that of the people in the Tang Mansion, but the color of the corpse and the color of the bones were different.

Needless to say, he died of poisoning.

"It's supposed to be snake venom." After Song Ning checked it, he said, "Taking it together with wine caused a myocardial infarction and caused death, if you are not vigilant and suspect him of murder, it is difficult to find out." ”

Not all poisons have obvious signs of poisoning.

"That's the mouth of the mouth?" Shen Wenyu asked.

Song Ning said: "At least, he just saved 10,000 taels in the account and didn't even know about his son, so he shouldn't have committed suicide in a hurry." ”

Today is indeed not in vain, and the harvest is great.

"I'm tired." Song Ning moved his neck, "Call it a day." ”

As she spoke, everyone began to get busy, Zhao Yi helped her pack her things, put the used knives in her specially sterilized porcelain jar, and packed the others in wooden boxes as they were.

The box was very heavy, Zhao Yi brought it up and looked at Song Ning, who was talking to the people, her face was a little pale because of exhaustion, but what she gave to others was care and hope.

Zhao Yi went to reminisce and realized for the first time that Song Ning never seemed to be discouraged, and even if he was occasionally depressed, it was just a joke.

She seems to have endless strength, inexhaustible intelligence, and endless insights to share......

He smiled and said softly, "Get in the car, we'll leave it to you here." ”

"Okay." Song Ning got into the carriage, Zhao Yi lifted her wooden box to the carriage and put it away, fixed the porcelain jar, and watched Song Ning leave.

He himself walked through the mud, discussed with everyone, returned the cemetery to its original state, talked and laughed with everyone, walked in the fields, and went to the city.

Song Ning went home directly to freshen up and change clothes, Bai Jiaojiao quietly pushed open the door, and secretly shouted: "Husband? ”

Qiuyi trotted out of the inner room, and when she saw Bai Jiaojiao, she immediately cried and laughed: "County Lord, why are you here!" ”

"I'll give my husband pancreas." Bai Jiaojiao held up a piece of pancreas, "Imported products, special fragrance, any smell can be removed when rubbed on the body." ”

Qiu Yi smiled and thanked: "Then take the slave in." ”

"Ah, there's a snake on the wall." Bai Jiaojiao pointed to the corner of the wall, Qiu Yi was startled, and turned back to look for it.

Bai Jiaojiao slipped past her.

"Husband." When Bai Jiaojiao entered the inner room, she saw Song Ning standing by the bucket in her clothes, smiling at her, "Send me pancreas, thank you." ”

"I'll make you a better one another day."

As he spoke, he took it from Bai Jiaojiao's hand.

"Why are you still dressed?" Bai Jiaojiao stomped her feet, "Why is it so slow, obviously I have been waiting at the door for a while." ”

Song Ning was speechless: "Don't you want me to be lazy for a while?" ”

"Then you wash it now, and I'll rub your back and wash your hair." Bai Jiaojiao said.

Song Ning saluted: "Don't dare to drive the county lord's mother." As he spoke, he pushed Bai Jiaojiao out, "Let's go!" ”

Bai Jiaojiao turned around and hugged Song Ning's waist, and the jack fell: "I won't go, I won't go, I won't go!" ”

"I know you're very tired today, and you've opened a lot of coffins, and I'm going to give you a massage to relieve your fatigue."

Song Ning was angry and funny: "Why do I think, you still want to play hooligan by the way?" ”

"No, no." Bai Jiaojiao shook her head vigorously and looked at her with blank eyes, "I just feel sorry for you." ”

Song Ning smiled and said, "I was wearing this dress to work just now." ”

"Huh?" Bai Jiaojiao couldn't hold it anymore, and sat on the ground with her buttocks, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

As he spoke, he ran out without looking back, shouting forsythia as he ran: "I want to change my clothes and take a bath!" ”

Song Ning laughed, and the unhappiness in his heart disappeared.
