Chapter 4: Losing gloves for fear of leaving a curse

Hua Qiao sat opposite Hua Youcai, holding her cheeks and watching Daddy slowly clean up the tools on the table.

"Daddy, are you going to come to the door tomorrow to arrest Master Guo?" Hua Qiao felt that there must be something wrong with that Guo Chengshilang, and he should be caught and beaten by the yamen first, maybe he would tell the truth.

"Arresting people, can you just rely on the evidence you secretly obtained?" Hua Youcai shook his head and smiled:

"Although the undertaker is a fictitious position, it can be said from the official character that he is at the same level as the county order, and he doesn't need to kneel when he sees the county master. If I come to the door tomorrow to ask for an autopsy, even if he wants to drag the county master out, he will not let me touch the corpse. On the contrary, it will also arouse his alarm, and if the body is burned, there will be no evidence left. ”

Hua Qiao pursed her mouth again: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, there's nothing to do with him?" ”

"Don't worry, wait for the first seven days, and you have to verify your body before sealing the coffin and burying it. If the body is filled with mercury, the mercury will slow down the decay of the internal organs of the corpse, and then I will bring up the abnormality of the corpse and need to re-examine the body...... As for finding the real murderer of the mercury, it is not a matter of preciousness. Don't cause trouble. ”

Hua Youcai finally covered his toolbox, these stainless steel tools brought from that world, only this set, from the twenty-ninth year of Hongwu to the present, has been used for twenty-seven years, every time it is used, he carefully wiped and put it away, although it cannot be said that it is the same as new, but it is still a complete set of autopsy tools.

"Daddy, why did you say Master Guo killed Miss Guo?" Hua Qiao is still struggling with this problem, Master Guo has no motive to kill, his baby girl, if he is killed, why does Master Guo want to cover up for the murderer?

"Now he's a suspect at best, and you can't talk nonsense without evidence. Don't you remember the rules of the way? He only talks about the facts he sees and reacts, speculates on the facts of the case, and arrests the criminals, which is the matter of the head catcher and the master of the yamen. Hua Youcai didn't know how many times he had chattered about this sentence, he glanced at the desktop and said:

"By the way, the gloves are no longer needed, take them. If you want to use them in the future, wash them and put them in an iron pot behind the house to cook for half an hour. "Behind the utility room, Hua Youcai specially set up a pot to cook the gowns and gloves he wore during the autopsy, and sterilize them at high temperatures.

"Huh? Don't you need to leave evidence this time? "There's something strange about buckwheat. The evidence that was finally recovered, if it wasn't for his luck, he would have almost been broken by the people of Guo Mansion. This one, Hua Qiao didn't dare to say it to Daddy.

Hua Youcai smiled and said to Hua Qiao: "Mercury will volatilize, and it's useless to keep it." Huh? I only saw one glove under the saddle, and the other one was on you? ”

"No, the gloves touched the corpse, and I won't carry it in my arms, besides, I took a shower and changed my clothes just now, but I didn't have it on my body...... I remember the two of them were stuffed under the saddle together, but Daddy didn't see it, right? Hua Qiao was a little nervous, and hurriedly walked to the stable. The rain had stopped, but there was still some water on the ground. The father and daughter stepped on the stagnant water and went to the stable.

Hua Qiao took off the entire saddle and looked for it: is it really not?

"You...... No...... Take it off in a coffin, right? "Hua Youqian asked.

"No, no, both of them were still in their hands before they climbed the wall...... Wall Climbing ...... Daddy, could it be that you lost it while climbing the wall? Ah Tuan said nervously: "Or maybe when I stuffed it into the saddle, I lost my ......."

"Tonight has paid off. Go back to your house and sleep, and I'll look for it. Which wall are you walking on? Hua Youcai began to untie the reins on the pillar, and he didn't want his daughter to cause anything for him.

“…… The back wall, in the middle of the wall, I pulled out a brick, and I climbed the wall from there...... Daddy, I'll go with you......" Hua Qiao is going to cry. This glove is unique and was taught to do by Daddy. Daddy also has a pair, many people have seen them wearing gloves for autopsy, if someone picks them up, they must be the first to think of their father and daughter.

"Hurry up and go to sleep, and tomorrow morning you have to help A-Niang deliver the goods to Xiaowangzhuang. It's okay, Daddy is here, I'll find it. After Hua Youcai finished speaking, he had already led the horse out of the yard.

Where can the buckwheat still sleep, and her ears have been listening to the movement outside. As soon as he heard the sound of Hua Youcai entering the door, he jumped up, put on a piece of clothing and rushed out, and asked in a low voice, "Did you find it, Daddy?" ”

Hua Youcai frowned and shook his head: "Maybe it rained heavily just now, and it was covered by muddy water on the road, the white color is so obvious, I haven't seen it after looking inside and out a few times." And you said that there was a brick on the wall, but I searched all the walls around it, and there was not a single brick missing......"

Hua Qiao was dumbfounded. It's over, the bricks can't grow on their own, someone must have found out!

As soon as she saw Hua Qiao's flat mouth, Hua Youcai smiled and comforted her: "It's okay, it's okay, go to sleep, you have a father." If you fall on the road, you will say that your father accidentally dropped it when he passed by. If it fell into the coffin, it was said that it was accidentally dropped inside during the autopsy. In the past two days, you must not pick up other people's coffins again! ”

"Got it, Daddy...... But you can't put my gloves on...... What if I drop my gloves over the wall? Hua Qiao lowered her head and said sneeringly.

Hua Youcai sighed before saying, "Just now, Daddy has already climbed over the wall and looked for it along the wall, but there is no inside." It's a blessing or a curse, and it's a disaster that can't be avoided. Now, we have to take one step at a time. ”

"Today's incident, you have to keep it in mind, and you must be cautious in everything in the future, and the most important thing is to be careful, and find the clues of the case from the details. It's good that the case is not solved, you lost everything, and you turned around and became a suspect, aren't you disgraced your father's face......"

"Daddy! Your legs! Hua Qiao followed Hua Youcai to the house, and she found that Daddy's leg was limping, and she couldn't help but scream.

"Shh......h It's okay, it's okay, I jumped off the wall just now, stepped on a stone, and stumbled...... "Hua Youcai is about to turn fifty-five, if he is still working in the Public Security Bureau, although he has retired from the second line, he has not yet retired, he doesn't want to admit that he is old."

But he also clearly knows that in the Ming Dynasty, where the average life expectancy is less than fifty years old, he is already an old man.

The buckwheat's intestines are all repentant, why are you so careless? not only harmed Daddy, but also buried an invisible bane. Alas! It can't be like this again!

Here, Hua Qiao and Daddy were worried about the white glove that was nowhere to be seen, and over there, in the west wing, a young man in a white shirt with scattered wet hair was putting a cleaned five-finger glove on a rope next to the bed.

He opened his large palm and compared it on the glove, and smiled:

"Your hands, so small!"
