Chapter 67: Breakthrough
Based on the results of his autopsy and Shu Yu's statement, the monkey felt that the amount of information was too small, which was not enough to prove Shu Yu's innocence.
The body monkey pondered for a moment, and said to Shu Yu:
"Miss, you are thinking about it, if there is any other information that has been missed."
Shu Yu frowned, trying to recall what had happened, but he still felt that he had not missed other useful information, and shook his head at the body monkey and said:
"That's how it happened, I woke up after I fainted, Mingli had already come, and after a while, the officials of the government were all here, and you all knew the last thing."
"Wait! You said that after you woke up, Lu Pingchuan was already dead, and then the people from the government came? ”
Nangong Mo seemed to have thought of something and reconfirmed.
Shu Yu didn't know why, he didn't know what Nangong Mo meant, nodded and said:
"That's right, when I woke up, Lu Pingchuan was already dead, and Li Pingping from the Qinglou happened to pass by and bumped into ......"
When Shu Yu said this, he also found a coincidence, and did not continue, but reorganized his thoughts before continuing:
"It seems that their bureau is not shrewd, and they still leave a lot of flaws."
The body monkey asked puzzledly:
"What do you mean by that, Miss?"
Shu Yu slowly explained:
"The officials of this government came too quickly, from the time the people in Qinglou found out about the murder to the people from the government office, it was just a cup of tea, and the time for Wan Zilou to go to the government was at least half a pillar of incense, and it took at least a stick of incense to go back and forth, and this government servant came so quickly, which proves that they already knew in advance that there was going to be a murder here."
Hou Mingli was also present at the time, witnessed everything going on, nodded and added for Shu Yu:
"Miss is right, and looking at Li Pingping's behavior, it definitely has an inexplicable relationship with the Xing Zhutou just now, and the key is that she was the first person to scream when she found the murder."
Nangong Mo organized all the useful information, silently kept it in his heart, and asked Shu Yu again:
"Xiaoyu, do you remember how long you fainted?"
Shu Yu thought about it for a while, and could only roughly say:
"I went to Wanzi Mansion just at noon, and I chatted with Lu Pingchuan for about half a pillar of incense time, after drinking water, I fainted to death after drinking tea, and when I woke up again, the sun was not yet setting in the west, and it was only a stick of incense at most."
Nangong Mo felt that Shu Yu's information was almost understood, so he turned around and asked the body monkey expectantly:
"Body monkey, the prince of Fang Cai asked you to check the corpse with you, but you can find it."
The body monkey smiled slightly, and with a serious face, this smile looked very obscene, and replied lightly:
"I don't dare to brag about other things, but I still know a little about autopsies and poisons."
Shu Yu glanced at the monkey angrily, they were all in this stall, and they didn't forget to brag about themselves, Shu Yu pretended to be angry and said:
"Body monkey, when have you been, you are still boasting about your skills, if you find anything, say it directly, be careful that I deduct your silver."
Shu Yu had no choice, the only thing that could threaten the body monkey was estimated to be only silver, and sure enough, as soon as the body monkey heard that Shu Yu was going to deduct his own silver, he replied nervously:
"Don't! Miss, didn't I mean to say it! ”
The monkey cleared his throat and continued:
"Lu Pingchuan did die of poisoning, and according to the timeline that Miss just said, this poison is obviously a kind of poison, I have seen Lu Pingchuan's facial features, hands and feet, and smelled the peculiar smell emanating from Lu Pingchuan's body, I can determine that this poison comes from the Nanban Baiyue Snake Spirit Sting, it is a kind of Gu poison."
Nangong Mo nodded and said:
"Hmmm! This is a very useful clue, at that time, we can start with the Gu poison aspect, maybe there will be gains, are there any other clues? ”
The Body Monkey nodded and responded:
"There are two other details, which are not explained, Lu Pingchuan's neck has a slight strangulation mark, although it is very shallow, it can still be seen that he was strangled with a rope or cloth before his death."
The body monkey changed his voice, and then said:
"There is another place, that is, Lu Pingchuan's arms and mouth, Lu Pingchuan's arms are bruised, obviously his arms are held by a person with greater strength than him, or a martial artist with some martial arts, and there is a slight misalignment in the jaws, which proves that it is poison under the jar of someone's mouth."
Hou Mingli obviously belonged to the state of the blindfold, and asked suspiciously:
"Uncle, the little nephew is unknown, even if Lu Pingchuan's jaws are slightly misaligned, how do you know that he is poison that has been put in a can."
It's okay for Hou Mingli not to ask, but when he asked, he was knocked on the head by the body monkey, and he hated the lesson that iron is not steel:
"You kid, you are so stupid, that Gu poison smells very great, which normal person would drink that thing by himself, Lu Pingchuan's jaws are misplaced, which proves that he was pinched by someone, Lu Pingchuan struggled, so it would be misplaced, why struggle, then someone must be trying to give him a pot of poison!"
Hou Mingli nodded with a sudden realization, with an expression that was the same, looking at the face of the monkey, he suddenly stepped aside aggrievedly, and muttered:
"In this case, if I didn't say it in the hall just now, at least it can prove that Miss is not a murderer, and Miss doesn't have to be imprisoned here."
When the body monkey heard Hou Mingli muttering like this, he just wanted to lose his temper again, but Nangong Mo stopped him and said something for Hou Mingli:
"As a monkey, Mingli is still young and has no experience in the rivers and lakes, so it is normal to have questions, take your time, and there is no need to blame.
Nangong Mo then patiently explained to Hou Mingli:
"Mingli, things are not so simple, if we told these speculations in the hall at that time, then they would have the opportunity to destroy the evidence, and it will be even more difficult for us to find out the truth, Lu Pingchuan was drugged, this cannot exonerate Xiaoyu, although Xiaoyu is a woman, it doesn't mean that Xiaoyu can't do it, after all, Xiaoyu still has you by his side, they can say that you are holding Lu Pingchuan, Xiaoyu is still drugged, and it is still the same nonsense. So we can only get direct evidence to prove that Xiaoyu is not the murderer, then it is useful. ”
Hou Mingli was obviously unconvinced, and retorted:
"But how can the young lady have so much strength to pinch the jaws of a big man out of place."
Seeing that Hou Mingli was so stubborn, the body monkey suddenly became angry again, knocked Hou Mingli on the head again, and taught:
"I said that you are really an elm head, I can't tell you clearly, you have time to learn more from Young Master Nangong. Haven't you heard that there is no excuse for the crime you want to add, as long as there is no direct evidence to prove that the young lady is innocent, then Zhao Chongwen can continue to mess around, so many people in the public court are watching, and the prince will not find a reason to protect the young lady at that time. ”
Hou Mingli was knocked on the head twice by his uncle, and was taught twice, his face couldn't hold back, and he retreated to the side with a look of grievance, and he didn't dare to say anything.
