Chapter 0002: Suicide
"The body smelled of alcohol in its mouth, and the deceased must have drunk a lot of alcohol before he died."
"There was an obvious serious wound on the body, the wound to the top of the head, which should have been caused by the head touching the ground before death, which was also a key injury that led to death. The second is multiple fractures on the body, but they are not fatal. ”
"The rest were bruises and skin injuries, all caused by the impact and friction of the crash. In addition, there was no trace of the body moving, which was due to death, but fell to his death. After carefully examining the body of the big girl Bai, he opened his mouth and ordered someone to record.
There have been few homicides in Kangping County in recent years, and Yuexuan Building is located in the prosperous place of Kangping County.
"The girl of the Bai family is such a good person, she has a good temperament, and she is docile, so the Ning family is really not a thing." Some regrets.
Although Xie Yu didn't expect the person she had just seen, she turned her head and jumped to her death. But in the past ten years, she has looked down on life and death, so she doesn't want to step forward and uncover the white cloth on the body of the big white girl.
The big girl Bai was covered with blood because of the heavy blow on her forehead, and now it has coagulated slightly, mixed with the cinnabar mole on her forehead. She was wearing a red dress today, her blood was unbridled, and her eyes were round, and she looked a little terrifying from a distance.
Lin Xiu glanced at the corpse of the white girl, and hurriedly turned his head sideways and asked Xie Yu to quickly cover the cloth.
"Don't look at the red-clothed ghost, be careful of pestering you."
Xie Yu didn't think much of what Lin Xiu said, she covered the corpse cloth with her, and said lightly: "I have no grievances with Miss Bai, what is she pestering me for?" It's you, can you settle the wine money in the Bai family in the past? Beware of Big White Girl begging you for money for wine at night. ”
Lin Xiu was so frightened by Xie Yu that he gasped, and squeezed out a smile, "One or two wine money is not enough." ”
Saying that, he felt a little cold on the back of his neck, rubbed his hands and asked with a shy face: "Is it feasible to borrow me one or two to settle the wine money with the Bai family first?" ”
Pulling out a tael of silver coins from his waist and throwing them to Lin Xiu, Xie Yu strode to a place and began to ask, "When did you find the body of Big Miss Bai?" ”
Miss Bai did not fall from the other side of the street, and the place where she fell to death was in the backyard of Yuexuan Building, so it was Zhao Su, a handyman in the store, who found Miss Bai.
Xu was frightened by this, and Zhao Su stumbled for a long time before he stumbled and said, "About ...... About three quarters of an hour ago, when I was just getting wine in the backyard, I heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, and I thought it was a guest on the second floor who had dropped something from the window, but as soon as I went out, I saw the eldest girl lying on the ground covered in blood. ”
Xie Yu met Miss Bai when she went downstairs, today coincided with the assembly, there were many people around her, she walked slowly, and it took nearly two quarters of an hour to walk to the county office.
Lin Xiu hurriedly summoned her back to Yuexuan Tower and galloped all the way, and it took less than a quarter of an hour. Back and forth, if the big girl Bai carried the wine upstairs and fell downstairs not long after, this hour would be exactly what Zhao Su said.
"Have you gone up to the top of the building to see?"
"I haven't gone up yet, today the big girl came and went upstairs with a straight drink, many of us have never seen each other, I never thought that the big girl would jump off the building and commit suicide."
Xie Yu frowned and asked, "How do you know that you committed suicide?" ”
As if he didn't expect Xie Yu to ask him like this, Zhao Su was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly explained: "Everyone thinks so. After the eldest girl retired from the Ning family, she had no intention of doing business in the store for a long time, and it was handled by the second girl for a long time, so she was afraid that the eldest girl would not be able to think about it for a while, and she never thought about ......it."
"Where are the two girls at this time?"
"The second girl went out of the city with people early this morning to pray for the eldest girl in Xiangji Temple, and someone has been sent to inform her. By the way, you want to go up to the top of the building to have a look? ”
Xie Yu nodded, and when she saw that Lin Xiu had also cleared the accounts, she pulled him upstairs with him.
Lin Xiu followed behind a little helplessly, "The roof of the building has already gone up to investigate that there is no abnormality, and even the presumptuous work has already asserted that she fell from the building and died, presumably she was drunk and couldn't think of committing suicide for a while." ”
Xie Yu squinted at him and asked coldly, "How can you be sure that she committed suicide and jumped off the building, not someone else deliberately murdered her?" ”
Lin Xiu was dumbfounded, so he had to wave his hand and say, "If you don't believe it, I'll accompany you up to take another look." As soon as the body of Miss Bai was discovered, a few of us had already asked someone to seal the Yuexuan Tower. After examining the bodies, we let the diners go. ”
"Besides, Miss Bai hasn't gone out these days, how can the murderer know that she came to Yuexuan Tower today, and followed her upstairs to push her down, and she was able to deal with everything without a trace and escape under so many eyes. If the murderer has such skills, why bother to make people suspicious. ”
Lin Xiu chattered behind Xie Yu, never thinking that Xie Yu's body suddenly stopped, and almost knocked Lin Xiu down the stairs, "You are walking upright, what are you doing when you stop?" ”
Xie Yu was standing on the stairs at the moment, looking sideways at the two gentiles who were carrying wooden boxes downstairs on the opposite stairs.
She had seen these two gentiles enter the Yuexuan Tower while sitting in front of the window, so she asked Zhou Su beside her, "What do those two people do?" ”
Zhao Su glanced at it and explained: "These are two people from the Western Regions who can do tricks, they came from Taiyuan Mansion and have been living in our Yuexuan Building, and they are ready to start performing in the county tomorrow. So the two of them were afraid that the items in the box would be lost, so they carried them with them when they went in and out on weekdays. ”
Xie Yu thought that the wooden box looked very bulky, why did these two people from the Western Regions bother to carry the box around, she squinted her eyes and said to Lin Xiu: "Stop those two people from the Western Regions and see what the box contains?" ”
Although Lin Xiu was a little reluctant, he still went to stop the two people from the Western Regions first.
When Xie Yu walked over, he listened to the two people from the Western Regions explain in a broken official dialect, "My name is Anash, this is my younger brother Anash, we have been performing all the way from our hometown to this place, and we have only come to Kangping County not long ago." This wooden box contains the things we will use for tomorrow's performance, and if we open it now, I am afraid that it will not be unusual tomorrow. ”
Before Lin Xiu could speak, Xie Yu said to Anash: "Today, there was a death in Yuexuan Tower, we are all ordered to handle the case, you just open the lid of the box and let us take a look, how about I and a few of my brothers go to cheer you on in person tomorrow?" ”
Anasan looked embarrassed and glanced at his brother Anash.
Anash thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "I know the laws of your court, so I am willing to cooperate with you." ”
As he spoke, he took out the key from his chest and opened the box, revealing its contents.
Lin Xiu was the first to take a look at it at this moment, and saw that the box really contained the objects used in the trick. He was a little curious, and couldn't help but want to reach out and touch it, but was stopped by Anash first, "These things are all prepared by us for tomorrow, if you don't know which mechanism is opened, I'm afraid you won't be able to clean it up for a while." ”
After that, he looked at Xie Yu and said, "I opened the box and showed it to you, can I leave now?" ”
Xie Yu took her gaze back from the contents of the box, she thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Let's go." After a pause, she said: "Although there are many contacts in Yuexuan Tower, no one has ever lost anything here. The next time you bring a suitcase, you don't have to bother carrying it upstairs. ”
Anash's eyes were stunned, and he immediately saluted Xie Yu and said, "Thank you for the reminder." ”
