(44) Hidden feelings
Let's say that Shen Mo investigated the unsolved case in Qu County that day, although the case was over, there were still a lot of doubts left, and it happened that Dr. Jiang asked to continue with Shen Mo in private, so Shen Mo responded and followed him to the inner room.
Doctor Jiang stopped Shen Mo.
"Has the stolen corpse general been placed in the county office?"
Shen Mo looked at him and nodded faintly.
"The annoying general took me to the workshop." The doctor responded to Shen Mo in a low voice.
The workshop is located on the east side, across the courtyard, and in order to temporarily preserve the corpses, the morgue was built with special bricks and built in a different way.
Although the room was cold, it was relatively dry, and the body that had been brought back had been simply embalmed by the county government for examination. However, due to the different degrees of decay, it is inevitable that there will be a disgusting smell coming out.
But, as doctors and generals, they have seen everything.
Shen Mo took the tolerance and work of the yamen according to military regulations.
Doctor Jiang stood next to a corpse that had not completely decomposed, and suddenly asked Shen Mo:
"The general also found the wounds on the surface of the corpse, right?"
Shen Mo nodded, looking at the body in front of Dr. Jiang.
That's where he had doubts.
The autopsy showed that the bodies of all present had different causes of death and different degrees of decomposition, except for one thing, the corpses all had very fresh wounds, as if someone had deliberately done it in order to destroy the corpse.
Of course, there is also a little abnormality, there is only one corpse, which is in too good a state of preservation, as if it has been embalmed a long time ago - and this corpse is Dr. Jiang's father.
"The scars on the corpse, did you do it?"
Shen Mo frowned, obviously upset, stealing the cemetery was already a serious crime. And when the coffin was opened and the corpse was hanged, he realized that this Dr. Jiang was ready to die for the original purpose.
He personally saw the body of Dr. Jiang's father, whose neck bones were dislocated from top to bottom, and he died of suffocation, most likely suffering a heavy blow from the back.
"It's me." Doctor Jiang's tone was firm and unwavering: "I saved Jiang Huan, and forced Jiang Huan to do things for me by threatening him to report to the government that he had been a tomb robber." As for the old lady of the Yu family, it was because of sympathy and helplessness that she was forced to agree to us stealing the body. ”
"But the two are not the masterminds, opening the coffin and insulting the corpse were all done by the next person, Jiang Huan is just helping to carry things, and the old lady only knows the cause of the corpse robbery, but does not know the process and result."
"I'll confess all the crimes, but General, what follows, I hope to talk to you alone, there's a mezzanine in the room, it's safe, we can go inside."
Having finally come to this point, we must be careful in everything and must not fall short.
There was a mezzanine room at the back of the room, surrounded by walls and no windows, and wide enough for two or three people to sit side by side, just right for this private inquiry.
Xu Ban and the others withdrew from the door and guarded the door of the room. To avoid leaking secret talks, the people from the Shen family's army stood in a circle around the house, and even two squatted on the roof, which could be called a strict guard.
Doctor Jiang stood up and bowed to Shen Mo to the ground.
"Thank you, General," he remembered Shen Mo's dark and calm pupils, and finally felt some comfort in his heart.
Shen Mo was the only lantern bearer he waited for in the long dark night.
"Everything the grass people did was for the sake of their deceased father, and I hope that the general will be my father and avenge his grievances." His voice trembled slightly with excitement, and he shifted his tone slightly.
Shen Mo sighed in his heart.
And so it was.
"Did you steal and damage the bodies of others to cover up the fact that you exhumed your father's body?" He thought for a moment and asked, "Are you suspicious of your father's death?" ”
Dr. Jiang smiled bitterly.
"There is nothing wrong with what the general said."
Not far from Shen Mo's conjecture, Jiang Rong's father died five years ago, but Jiang's father died not because of joy and mourning, but because he committed suicide in fear of sin, and the reason was rumored to be that he collaborated with the enemy and committed treason. According to the Yamen crime record, Jiang's father privately saw that the spy was caught by the official on duty, and confessed after being interrogated by the county order, and was finally imprisoned in the prison, waiting to be beheaded, and finally committed suicide with a clothes belt hanging from the beam in prison because of remorse in his heart.
But now, this matter is really a huge loophole, and the injury to the neck bone of Jiang's father's corpse is especially obvious.
"My father was convicted, our family didn't believe it, I specially checked with the official jailer, so that I had the opportunity to visit the prison, how did I know that when we met, my father did not mention a word of defense, only sighed, and told me to take care of my mother and Wantong, and when it was time to part, he suddenly held my hand and left something in my sleeve."
Dr. Jiang untied his bound arm and tore it the slightly raised part of the arm, tearing off the fake skin, revealing a pair of winged butterflies with blood stains and blue gems.
There was a distinct scar on his arm, as if it had been cut with a knife, and it had become a dent when it had grown.
"There are occasional thieves in my house," Dr. Jiang said with a sarcastic smile, "but they must not have thought that I hid the evidence on my body that day and never took it out." ”
"The general doesn't know, my father is the elder brother of the county commander's wife, but he doesn't want to be framed by Chen Chang like this......" Jiang Rongyan came here, his eyes gradually dyed red, "As soon as this incident came out, everyone said that the county ordered the righteous destruction of relatives, and my father was scolded by thousands of people, and even the coffin was ......"
He took a deep breath before continuing: "And my family, only because Chen Chang was jealous of my possession of evidence, so they were not destroyed. ”
When he found out everything, he planned to persuade his mother to remarry, and planned to foster Wantong into the clan, and then started the whole corpse robbery case.
Shen Mo's fingers resting on the wooden bed tapped lightly, and his expression remained unmoved.
"How do you confirm that Chen Changnai is the mastermind?"
Dr. Jiang was silent for a moment.
"He admitted it himself."
He looked up and described the scene word by word.
After Jiang's father's death, he visited Mrs. Chen and found that Mrs. Chen was also suspicious of her brother's death. Mrs. Chen, Jiang Yun, ordered Jiang Rong to hide in the cabinet, and asked Chen Chang in person.
When Chen returned home, he was in a very good mood and wanted to share the news of his upcoming promotion with Mrs. Chen, but he heard Mrs. Chen's questioning words:
"There are no good results during the tenure, how can the husband get the promotion opportunity?"
"There is no merit," Chen Chang raised his voice and put the cup back on the table: "Madame doesn't congratulate me, but says such sour words." ”
Mrs. Chen smiled coldly: "Chen Chang, you and I have been married for many years, I only want to ask you, do you feel guilty about exchanging my brother's life for a promotion opportunity?" ”
There was a sudden silence in the room.
Chen Xianling looked at Mrs. Chen, carefully looking at it from head to toe, slowly, slowly, with a distorted smile on his face.
Then he smashed the teacup to the ground with a thud, then picked up a sharp shard and quickly walked towards Mrs. Chen. Mrs. Chen couldn't dodge, and was kicked back a few steps by him, and sat down on the ground with her chest clutched, her back pressed against the cabinet behind her.
Chen Chang squatted down to look into her eyes, and his right hand, which was holding the fragment, grabbed Mrs. Chen's hand, and the fragment pierced into the palms of the two at the same time, and a string of red blood beads rolled out.
"Jiang Yun, I really like you so much," he grabbed Mrs. Chen's hand and rubbed it lightly on his cheek, "I love you too much, otherwise, you will also die." ”
is obviously not a young couple, and it is clear that they have passed and stand, but they use such sticky movements and tones.
Jiang Rong, who was hiding in the cabinet, saw that his hairs stood on end, and a feeling of nausea came out of his stomach.
