013 Misfortune (3)
Now that the situation is urgent, Mo Dongqing hurriedly rushed to Beixian County to invite Miss Jiang, and the rest of the people followed Zhang Yu to He Mansion first.
Outside the gate of Hefu, which was still extremely lively, the vendors were all sent away for some reason. The door was closed and deserted. Lin Zhutou stepped forward and knocked on the door, and as soon as the doorkeeper opened the door knocker, the house was in a noisy mess. A few girls who swept the door muttered in the corner, and when they saw that they were coming, they were busy silencing.
Now he can't take care of the others, Lin Zhutou hurriedly asked the little guy, and led the way to see Steward Chen, who had an accident.
Steward Chen's body was carried to the lobby, covered with a white cloth, and the upper seat sat around the old man He, the eldest lady and the second lady, who were not very good-looking, and there were a few concubines who had never seen it next to them. More than a dozen maids were blocked by a few catchers who had arrived earlier, and almost all the people in the house were alarmed when they thought about it.
Lian Zheng raised his eyes and looked at Lin Zhutou, frowned and said: "Lin Zhutou, the corpse has been moved, the first scene should not be here, they moved the corpse without authorization, I am afraid that it will destroy the original evidence and clues." ”
These Lin catchers don't know, but the corpse has been passive, and He Mansion is not an ordinary big house, even if he moves the corpse, he can't be investigated!
Lin Zhutou raised his head and looked at the few catchers, they just shook their heads helplessly, and he knew the situation in his heart.
Lin Zhutou raised his hand and bowed: "Master He, did this corpse just come here?" Where did Steward Chen die before, and he took us to seal off the location. ”
Master He's face turned blue, and he glanced at the second lady Lin Rong fiercely, and turned his face with a blue face.
"He just died here, but Steward Chen had a chronic illness before, and it has always been a well-known thing in the house, but... Suddenly he died of illness, I sent a coffin, and then subsidized his family with some silver taels, how embarrassed to bother Lin Zhutou and the catchers came in a crowd. ”
When I said this, I was reluctant to explain.
I am afraid that this Chen Jiafu died uncleanly, so he was secretly unwilling to let people come to inspect it.
Now that we have come here, there is no reason not to test.
"Lin Zhutou, please arrange manpower to sort out the people in the entire He Mansion in an orderly manner, I will examine the corpse first, and then go with you to find the first scene." Pian Zheng rolled up his sleeves and looked up at Feng Yin.
Feng Yin understood the meaning of the kite, looked out, and asked a little guy to bring pen and paper.
When she walked into the lobby, she naturally didn't care about Master He and those ladies, and for her, the corpse was the most important thing.
"People who die of illness usually have sallow faces and gray nails." She lifted the white cloth that covered the corpse, carefully looked at Chen Jiafu's limbs and face, and then pressed his abdomen, "And the deceased's abdomen is soft and not swollen, not a person who died of illness." ”
"Who are you, you dare to spread wild in my He Mansion." The eldest lady suddenly slapped the table and got up, her face was full of anger, and her index finger pointed directly at the pitiful kite: "Lin Zhutou, I can't say anything if I bring a woman, but I dare to point fingers here!" ”
"Mrs. He, if you are not convinced, you can ask the yamen to invite a few more other servants to test it for yourself."
There was no anger on his face, he just looked up at Master He, and smiled: "Please ask Lin Zhutou to invite the most famous Ruan Zhuozuo from Beixian, I heard that he has a must-do autopsy, and he deserves it." It's best to invite those works in Nanxian County and Yinghe Town, which are all well-known. Once the case is solved, it is not an exaggeration to be praised by storytellers in the streets and alleys for half a year, until the streets are known. ”
The implication is that this is modest, and it is clearly a threat.
If you are afraid of making a big fuss, the more you want to hide and hide, then I will give you a hard time to make you ruined, everyone knows, it depends on whether you are willing or not!
When Gong stared at the pityan like a wolf and a tiger, the pity kite did not flinch, looked back at each other, and did not waver at all.
After a moment, he loosened his clenched fist and lowered his head: "Don't Lao Lin catch his head and work hard, now...... Very good. ”
If you really can't hide it, you won't be known in the streets.
He is a man after all, and he must save face.
"That's for the best." Lin Zhutou finally breathed a sigh of relief, thought about it, and explained: "Let all the people go to other back halls to guard, and Master He and a few ladies can go to the room to rest, and let them do a good autopsy." ”
Master He looked at Chen Jiafu's corpse complicatedly, sighed lightly, and glanced at Lin Zhutou, "There is a Laurin headcatcher." ”
"Where, Lin should do."
The fewer people know about the results of the autopsy, the better, and once the murderer is in the middle, clues are found, and the destruction of the body can only cause trouble. Covering up the mouths of the people a little for Master He, this is not Lin Zhutou's original intention, but how long can Master He hide like this.
Feng Yin waited for the little servant to take a pen and paper from the study and sent it over, and the pity kite gestured sideways, and Feng Yin nodded immediately.
Pian Zheng carefully inspected the surroundings of the corpse, checked the head, back, limbs, etc. of the corpse, and then said slowly: "The corpse spots have not yet been generated, according to the corpse stiffness, it took less than half a pillar of incense to die, the complexion was purple, there was no abnormality on the body and limbs, plus other symptoms, it should be poisoned to death." The deceased had dander in his fingernails, but there were no wounds on his body, and he may have scratched others during the dispute, whether he was a murderer or not, there must have been someone next to him when Chen Jiafu died. ”
"Can you tell what kind of poison it is?"
"There is no filth near his mouth and tongue, but there are white traces of vomit under the base of his tongue, he had a vomiting reaction when he died, and no wounds were found on his body for the time being, if it wasn't for the use of needles or something, the poison should have entered from the mouth, and the corpse should be dissected to see Steward Chen's stomach, to see what he had eaten, and then make a guess. If there was someone around him at the time, then he not only watched the housekeeper die, but someone even wiped the vomit from the corners of his mouth for him, and the area around his lips was very clean. So in the process of wiping, the other party may be scratched. ”
"Now that the weather is getting colder, those maids and maids, including Master He and several ladies, are all long-sleeved dresses, if they want to scratch, they must be caught in a position that has no sleeves and cannot be covered." Feng Yin put down the pen and paper and smiled faintly: "Just now, I see that there are a few freshly scratched scars on the back of Master He's hand, which are hidden in secret, but I haven't looked at it carefully." ”
"In this matter, there will be Lau Lin to catch the head, maybe we want to discuss how to decide?"
I think they have no right to search Master He's body, but these mansion compounds will give Lin Zhutou a little thin noodles.
A catcher hurried into the lobby to interrupt the discussion of several people, looking panicked.
"Boss, the second lady of He Mansion hanged herself in the room just now."
