Chapter 481: Weird Silk Thread
"Qin An, come, let me introduce you. This is Zhao Jingxuan, the governor of Zhongnan Province, who found it, and this is his inside-in-law. ”
When Xiao Yuchen heard the young man's question, he immediately opened his mouth to introduce him.
After introducing them one by one, he grabbed Qin An's hand and walked to the side and asked in a low voice.
"How's that for you to do?"
"Everything is according to the orders of the prince, no one has ever entered the back kitchen, and it is still the same as when the corpse was found."
Xiao Yuchen couldn't help but nod with satisfaction when he heard this answer, and patted the other party's shoulder heavily, looking very approving.
Qin An was also very happy to see Xiao Yuchen like this, which showed that he should really want to have a good relationship with Xiao Yuchen.
Jiang Li was not interested in these things in the officialdom, she was more curious about why Xiao Yuchen emphasized letting the other party keep the scene.
She knew that people in those days had no idea about protecting the crime scene. And even if they keep fingerprints and other things, at most they can compare them when they find the real culprit, and a lot of evidence at the scene cannot be verified.
After all, this is not the era of high-tech to help solve cases.
Jiang Liang thought wildly in his heart, and while following behind Zhao Jingxuan, several people arrived at the scene of the crime together.
Before she got closer, Jiang Liang felt a strong smell of blood in her nose, and she almost didn't choke on it.
"Why does it smell so strong here!"
Jiang Liang couldn't help frowning, covering his nose and looking at Xiao Yuchen, wanting him to answer his doubts.
Xiao Yuchen waved his hand, looking like he wanted them to witness it themselves.
Seeing that he had no intention of answering, they could only continue to walk forward.
When he arrived at the door of the kitchen, Jiang Liang only glanced at it and understood that the chef had been dismembered.
"This ...... That's too ruthless! ”
Even Zhang Qingting, a person who is used to seeing the impermanence of the world, couldn't help but exclaim when he saw this scene.
Xiao Yuchen also nodded approvingly, he also felt this way after seeing the scene.
Jiang Liang looked at this scene and retreated a little, she didn't expect the murderer to be so frustrated and kill people in the back kitchen.
For chefs, the kitchen is their battleground and the most sacred place for them, where they can cook delicious dishes and develop new dishes.
It can be said that Jiang Li's favorite place is the kitchen, and when she holds the spatula in her hand, she has a feeling of holding the whole world, just like she is a general who scolds Fang Xuan, and everything can be created by her.
However, this chef can no longer be on his battlefield in this life, and even he was killed here in the end.
"Are you alright?"
Zhao Jingxuan had been paying attention to Jiang Li's emotions, and when he saw her ugly face at this time, she was obviously very uncomfortable, so she couldn't help but worry.
"Otherwise, you'll just wait outside and don't go in again."
"No, I want to know what's going on."
Jiang Liang shook his head, and a wave of anger arose from the bottom of his heart. She's got to find that vicious bastard!
She wanted to walk in as she spoke, but was stopped by Xiao Yuchen.
"Mrs. Zhao, don't be impatient! It's not easy to get into. ”
"Why?"
Jiang Liang was a little puzzled, she could see that Xiao Yuchen knew something inside, but it was hidden like this, which made her feel very strange.
"Is there a problem here?"
Xiao Yuchen didn't know how to explain, but turned his head to look at Qin An beside him.
Seeing this, Qin An knew that it was time for him to behave, and coughed lightly, and then said to Jiang Liang and them: "We don't know the approximate reason, that is, there were officials who went in to take away the corpse before, but they were accidentally injured. Everyone thinks that this place is evil and dare not enter. ”
Zhao Jingxuan didn't expect this to be the case, and his expression was a little subtle.
He glared at Xiao Yuchen coldly, already understanding that someone hadn't told the truth before.
At that time, Xiao Yuchen ran to the post house in a hurry, and said that he couldn't delay any longer, otherwise the case would be the first to arrive.
I really believe in his wickedness!
"In addition to this strange phenomenon, is there anything unusual at the scene?"
"The smell of blood is very strong, and there is a lot of blood on the ground, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the blood that a person can have."
The people of Dali Temple are still very professional in handling cases, just by observing the scene, it can be seen that the amount of blood on the ground is too large, and it is not something that one person can have.
Jiang Liang noticed these after being reminded, and immediately looked towards the ground.
She also soon discovered that the blood was a little different, some of it was darker, some of it was brighter, some of it was obviously oxidizing quickly, and some of it was not yet coagulated.
If it were all the blood of a person, in this same environment, there should be a puddle of brown blood on the ground now, not such a strange appearance.
"Some of this blood is pig blood, some is chicken blood, not just human blood."
Jiang Liang observed for a while and came to a conclusion, "Blood contains different components, so it will look different colors. ”
Jiang Liang couldn't explain to everyone from the composition of blood cells and other things, but she was a cook and usually didn't come into contact with these things, so she quickly saw that something was wrong.
"This ......"
Qin An really didn't expect that there would be such a thing, and suddenly showed a very strange expression.
Most of them didn't expect that Jiang Lei, who was the governor's wife, would still know these things.
Jiang Liang shrugged his shoulders and didn't care about the attitude of others.
She turned to look at Zhao Jingxuan, wanting to see if he had found something.
"Ah Xuan, what do you think?"
"There's a net laid here."
When Zhao Jingxuan heard Jiang Liang take the initiative to ask, he knew that she was almost gone, and she was willing to take care of herself.
At this time, he knew that the opportunity for reconciliation had come, and immediately explained to Jiang Li.
"Look at it."
As he spoke, Zhao Jingxuan suddenly pulled out a hairpin from Jiang Li's hair, raised his hand and picked it at a place, and everyone saw a silver silk thread appear in front of them.
"What is this?"
Xiao Yuchen suddenly exclaimed at this scene, he didn't expect this kind of unexpected discovery. "Is this what hurts the servants?"
He didn't think that there were these silver threads in this kitchen, and if that was the case, it would explain why someone would get hurt when they entered it, and it should have been these silver threads that scratched it.
As long as the thread is tight enough, and in the case of surprise, it is very likely to hurt others.
Soon, Xiao Yuchen had a bold guess.
"Will it be ......?"
His face turned pale, and he was incredulous at his guess.
"Excluding all factors, the most unlikely possibility that remains may be the truth."
Zhao Jingxuan nodded affirmatively at Qin An, and ordered: "You go find some strips of cloth and come over, I want to see how many of these things are here." ”
Qin An saw that Zhao Jingxuan had really made a discovery, and he didn't dare to delay at the moment, so he hurriedly answered and ran out, apparently looking to find cloth.
When he trotted to deliver the found strips of cloth to Zhao Jingxuan's hands, he saw Zhao Jingxuan pick up the strips of cloth, one of which was tied to the silver thread he had just found, and the other side carefully tested the way with a hairpin, and tied the silk thread he found to the strip of cloth in turn.
He walked steadily, slowly exploring.
Qin An also knew what he was going to do when he saw it, and hurriedly beckoned his servants to start looking for it by learning Zhao Jingxuan's movements.
"Don't miss a single mistake from top to bottom, not just from above, but also from other positions."
Zhao Jingxuan saw that they all started to help, and immediately admonished.
Everyone understood what he meant, cooperated for a while, and finally found all the silk threads in the kitchen.
Knowing the location of the silk thread, everyone no longer needs to be so careful, for fear of being hurt.
It was only at this time that everyone realized that what they felt strange at first was actually not strange at all, but that the perpetrator's methods were more clever, so that they were kept in the dark for a while.
