Hua Qiao and Hu Yanjin soon arrived at the Deadhead Cliff. Why is it called Guillotine Cliff? It's not that people will break their heads when they reach it, but a long time ago, a weathered boulder on the top of the mountain rolled down, and the top of this hill became flat, like a broken head.

There is a cliff cave under the cliff, because it is not far from the roadside, occasionally people will go to rest inside, especially in case of strong wind and rain, this cliff cave is even more popular.

Now, there is a circle of people in the cave. Surrounded in the middle was a charred corpse. There was still a ...... in the air The taste of barbecue......

Hua Qiao breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, it's a half-scorched corpse.

When Yi Chengjin saw them coming in, he was stunned for a moment, he thought that Hu Yanjin went back to ask the master to come with flowers, but he didn't expect that it was buckwheat that came. He was a little curious: A woman, isn't she afraid to see a corpse? What's more, after even the leaders saw this charred corpse, two of them spit out their lunch......

The main thing is that everyone hasn't eaten dinner yet, or they vomit more.

Hua Qiao nodded at several people, and several of them had seen the search family just now. She took off the rattan basket on her back, took out a mask and white gloves from it and put them on. Hu Yanjin glanced at her gloves twice: Oh, you have a new one, then you don't have to pay it back.

Hua Qiao did not immediately turn over the corpse, but carefully examined the ground around the corpse. The reason why everyone concluded that this charred corpse was the fugitive Chen Kai was mainly because there was a waist plate on the ground that burned the rope, which was a bronze plaque, which was engraved: Tongzhou Guard.

Waist cards are right.

Some of the remaining pieces of clothes around the corpse, one or two pieces of the original cloth and color can still be seen, and the buckwheat picked it up and looked closely, it was the maroon silk silk worn by the middle-aged man that day. More obvious is the corpse's shoe, which looks like a pair of leather boots in the shape of the charred shape, and the upper of the boot separates from the sole of the boot after burning, and the sole of the boot is preserved intact.

Yi Chengjin, Hu Yanjin and these heads are very familiar with this kind of sole, military attachés love to wear, this kind of boots are called "creepers" by them, the bottom is light but strong, is leather wax injection, can be waterproof. The Ming Dynasty forbade the common people to wear boots, even if the officials wore boots, they were the same as clothes, there was a hierarchy, but they could not be high. Looking at the size of the sole of the boot, it also matches Chen Kai's height.

But Hua Qiao always felt that something was wrong.

The corpse was basically burned out, and the fire was extinguished naturally. Judging from the thick grass ash under him, Chen Kai found a lot of hay to help burn. It seems that his desire to die is still resolute, no, it's her!

The external gender characteristics of the charred corpse were completely indistinguishable, but Hua Qiao felt that the bone size was wrong, it was more like a woman's skeleton. She picked up the soles of her shoes, compared them to the charred corpse's feet, and looked up at Hu Yanjin.

Hu Yanjin and Yi Chengjin immediately noticed her action, and the two stepped forward to take a look, and quickly understood Hua Qiao's suspicions.

This is not Chen Kai, or even ...... Not a man!

Hua Qiao pulled down her mask and whispered, "I need to dissect this body to see if she was burned before or after her death?" ”

Dissect? Neither of them has ever heard of this word, but since there is "solving the cow", there is naturally "solving people", and "dissection" is easier to understand, cut with a knife! But...... Autopsy is a crime......

Yi Chengjin stood up straight, and the six heads around him from afar said: "You go to the entrance of the cave to guard, the girl will check the corpse in a while, as soon as the charred corpse is turned, the skin and flesh may fall off and it may be more disgusting, you can stay if you want to, and if you want to have dinner, go to the entrance of the cave and wait." Before the words fell, several big men ran away and disappeared.

Seeing that there were only three of them left in the cave, Hua Qiao opened his rattan basket, took out a knife, and cut it down the mouth, nose and throat of the deceased.

Hua Qiao also clearly saw that this person did not have an Adam's apple, and there was no doubt that he was a woman.

"This is a woman, there is no soot in her lungs, she should have been burned after death, and after burning, there are still strangulation marks, it is possible that she was strangled to death. Chen Kai put his clothes and shoes on her, pretending that he had self-immolated and died. Since he changed his clothes in a hurry, he will hide the clothes he has changed. ”

"If you want to disguise, why find a woman? Wouldn't it be easy to expose yourself? Yi Chengjin was a little puzzled. As he spoke, his eyes swept to the corners of the cave.

Hu Yanjin knew that Chen Kai had an injury on his leg, and he may have been forced to find a woman to be a substitute for the dead ghost.

"There it is!"

The two hurriedly looked at Hua Qiao, only to see that she picked out a very inconspicuous little golden hairpin from the ashes under the scorched corpse's head, that is, a hairpin with a mushroom head on its head, which had been burned by the fire, and the hairpin had been deformed.

"This is called a gold wrap, it is generally a pair, a woman from a common family, with a pair of gold wraps fixed buns, which is already very good." Hua Qiao saw that the two men were inexperienced, so she explained to them.

The three of them slowly turned over the charred corpse again, and pulled it in the grass ash for a while, but they didn't find the second one.

Hu Yanjin said: "Chen Kai has no coat and boots, he shouldn't be able to run far, it is estimated that he will hide until dark before coming out, we will search overnight, even if we can't find it, there is movement outside, he will not dare to run out easily." Block him in Baoying tonight, and go to find someone at dawn. ”

Yi Chengjin looked at the female corpse on the ground and said, "Want to be lively? Isn't it lively to solve the case overnight? After speaking, he walked out of the cliff cave, explained a few words to the heads outside, and the two heads hurriedly went to the Baoying County Ya.

The head of the Criminal Department found a charred corpse on the cliff next to the county seat? Is this worth it? Xu Xian ordered to immediately gather people and rush to the Broken Head Cliff. When I arrived, I found out that there was also a Si Zhilang from the Emperor's Mansion. The official titles of the two are above the county order, how dare Xu County order slack off, and quickly let Hua Cheng come forward for an autopsy.

Hua Qiao squatted next to Daddy, Hua Youcai checked it, and came to the same conclusion as Hua Qiao: this woman died first and then burned.

Hua Youcai pointed to her neck and added: "The groove in her neck did not even disappear because of incineration, and the thyroid cartilage plate and cricoid cartilage were fractured, so the cause of death tended to be strangled." ”

The people in Baoying County are used to listening to Hua Youcai say those strange terms, and they don't have any special reactions, but Yi Chengjin and the heads of the criminal department are like listening to heavenly books, staring and opening their mouths, and even the charred corpse doesn't look so disgusting.

No wonder Hu Yanjin wants to learn skills from Hua Youcai, he is really a god! Yi Chengjin praised it in his heart.

Since there was a dead person, Lord Yi asked for an overnight investigation, and the county government team went back to sound gongs along the street and check door to door if there was anyone who had not returned home after dark.

Two households were quickly found.
