Chapter 306: The Murder of the Envoy (3)

This woman, who is really ignorant and fearless, actually sat down. Even if it is a guest of the palace, I am afraid that there is no such bold person......

Xu Chu didn't know anything about their thoughts, after all, she and Xiao Qinglang's way of getting along was like this. Therefore, I don't feel that there is anything wrong with sitting down and looking through the case file.

Xiao Mingzhu naturally doesn't feel that there is anything wrong, in her eyes, one is the third uncle, and the other is the third uncle's sweetheart and master. The two of them sit together, which is the right thing to do. If one day, Sister Chu respectfully trembles like a hundred officials seeing the third uncle, then it will be unacceptable.

Xu Chu looked at the thick stack of case files, and heard Xiao Qinglang say that the Three Law Divisions had found nothing in the past few days, and couldn't help but be surprised. Logically speaking, in a serial murder case that is inferred to be the same murderer, the murderer's motive, frequency, location or method of committing the crime will have certain rules. The more times you commit a crime, the clearer the clues will be, and the more traces the killer will leave behind.

Now, there have been six murders in a row, and if you add what happened in the palace today, it means that seven people have died. Even if you can't catch the murderer, you should at least know about the murderer's situation.

However, Xiao Qinglang said that the people of the Three Law Divisions did not find a clue. In other words, they don't have any clues at the moment except for the seven autopsy sheets!

Xu Chu's gaze subconsciously swept to the three people standing in the study with ugly faces, and saw that the three of them did not refute Xiao Qinglang's words, and immediately understood, but he was afraid that Xiao Qinglang's words were not exaggerated.

She shook her head, said no more, and directly opened the autopsy sheets sandwiched in the case file. However, I saw that the autopsy list was clearly organized and the examination was very detailed. From the appearance of the corpse's clothes, to the scars on the surface of the body, to the top of the head and private parts, nothing is missing. It can be said that they did everything they had to do, except for the fact that they had never been dissected.

"This matter is so tricky, and the corpse is the last trace left by the deceased, and the examiner of the Three Law Divisions has not even performed an autopsy?" Xu Chu raised his head and looked at Xiao Qinglang with a cold face suspiciously.

Xiao Qinglang's eyes were deep, but he said with a little coldness: "It's just because the identity of the deceased is different, and I can't be sure that I can get more clues after dissecting the corpse." Therefore, those talents did not dare to dissect easily. ”

I am afraid that it will disappoint those who criticize and follow the superiors.

After all, as a servant, he can go all the way to the three legal divisions of the capital to serve, and he has the identity of an inspector, he can already be regarded as a leader.

Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, no one has been famous all over the world. Even though he has some reputation, he cannot escape the eyes and prejudices of the world. And among them, only the inspector can be looked down upon.

Of course, because of this, they are afraid when it comes to the autopsy. To put it nicely, it is prudent. To put it mildly, it is because I am worried that after the autopsy, I will not be able to find out what is useful, and then I will fall into the hands of others.

It's fine if it's just ridiculed by outsiders, but once it comes to the forces of the DPRK and China, they will be timid. It is said that it is dissected, even if it is some special moves, I am afraid that it will be avoided one or two.

It is precisely because of this that the three law divisions solve the case, and many times there will be many twists and turns.

This is also why, after Xiao Qinglang saw Xu Chu's autopsy for the first time, he was full of thoughts about letting her join the Three Law Division.

Regardless of qualifications, just talking about Xu Chu's upright temperament and the autopsy that others can't reach is enough to shock the inspectors. If she is there, I am not afraid that I will not be able to get rid of the bad habits and luck thoughts of those inspectors.

Xiao Qinglang has been involved in criminal prison since he was a child, so he naturally knows what effect a good examiner's autopsy sheet will have on the investigation. Just like the cases from Yunzhou City to Jinzhou City, and then from Jinzhou City to Beijing, no matter how big or small, clues can be found from the autopsy results.

Thinking of this, Xiao Qinglang couldn't help but think of what Xu Chu had said. The real work is to examine the body in detail, like a coroner, and to deduce the cause of death, the time of death, and the fatal part. In addition, it is also necessary to conduct a survey of the environment and the site to find more traces. And a real servant should play a pivotal role in the investigation of the case, rather than being dispensable.

In this way, the status of the yamen should not be such an embarrassing and despicable existence. Otherwise, it is inevitable that there will be "scars of misgrasp, upside down, and so on; If there is a serious case, there will be no blinding".

It's like Feng Chengzuo will be greedy for money, and then falsify the autopsy. If they form a system like local officials, become yamen officials, or have enough status and monthly income, then those who are willing to take risks and cheat will only be much less.

There was silence in the study, and the atmosphere was solemn, except for the sound of Xu Chu constantly flipping through the case files.

After half an hour, Xu Chu spoke: "There are a lot of suspicions in the case file, just like the first person who skinned the dead, since he only had a bloody corpse left, where did the human skin go?" How did the murderer manage to peel off the whole skin? ”

"Also, in the capital, it is extremely prosperous, that is, the night market can be open until dawn. The murderer can avoid people and throw the body in a place that is not easy to find, and each place is so clever that it is difficult to find for a while, but it will not be impossible to find for a long time. And how did he do it? ”

Xu Chu said, and asked Xiao Qinglang for a map of the capital.

"When I first arrived, I didn't know the name of the street in the capital, and I bothered the prince to help me draw it."

Xiao Qinglang marked the six corpses as he said, and then looked at Xu Chu with a smile and continued to analyze.

In his heart, he had already speculated about the murderer's situation. It's just that when he saw Tang Qiaozheng and others whose faces were getting more and more ugly because of Xu Chu's analysis, he still had an indescribable feeling in his heart. But he didn't know whether to be angry or laughing, as if the subordinates he brought out were so poor that they should be angry. But seeing that his sweetheart is analyzing the facts of the case, and every sentence is stepping on the idea, it seems that he should be gratified.

"The deceased who has been cooked, as a strong man in the northern Xinjiang, since he can set up his own tribe, how can he be easily captured? There shouldn't be many cases that can make him lose the ability to backhand and let others slaughter him. ”

"And Nabi, who has a relationship with those clothed mounds? Why did the murderer choose to abandon him in a clothed grave? ”

"The deceased who died of poisoning in the end, logically speaking, he should be familiar with the properties of the medicine, how could he die of his specialty? It is recorded in the case file that his food and consumption on that day were all registered in the register. After inspecting the scene that day, the three law divisions found no abnormality, and there was no trace of the reed. How did the deceased die, and how did he get into his body and poison him? ”

"In fact, there are a lot of cumbersome suspicions, and there are many places that can be traced. It's just that the officials of the Three Law Divisions probably put the cases together from the beginning, trying to find common ground, but ignoring these puzzling places. ”

Tang Qiaozheng said embarrassedly: "At the beginning, Xia Guan and all his colleagues had studied and investigated this, but there was really nowhere to start. There were no witnesses, and there was no indication of why they had left the inn, so ...... It's as if you're approaching a dead end. ”

"In addition, the likes of Nabi and Aireti, according to the guards, never left the inn. However, one was found dead in the cemetery, and the other was poisoned to death, and there were no poisonous items at the scene. ”

"At that time, the lower officials had interrogated the people of the post station, including the officials sent by the Jingzhao Mansion to protect the envoys, as well as the nearby merchants, and no one found anything abnormal."

"So this thing is really weird......

Among the three, only Lou An said unhurriedly: "The inner court has never intervened in this matter, but in my opinion, the death of the envoys may have been their plan." The death of a few envoys, but they can take the opportunity to discuss with the court about the court, so that they can survive, this matter can be regarded as a good deal. ”

Tang Qiaozheng and Sikong Hansu couldn't look down on Lou An, who was a eunuch, and immediately mocked: "Yes, the leader of the clan and the heir of the clan are dead, it is really cost-effective." ”

Lou Andang and the two of them were a raccoon dog, and they were just about to laugh back. But Xiao Qinglang, who heard the superior, snorted coldly, and immediately, his face sank and he could only shut up.

"Okay, this king took the case. Go back and stand by for the time being, and if there is a need, the king will have them find him. ”

Xiao Qinglang's original plan was to ask Xu Chu to pass the examination of the Criminal Department and then become a veritable inspector. Because she really passed the autopsy assessment, others have nothing to say.

But at the moment, it seems that there is a little bit of time.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but rub his eyebrows, it seems that he will have to ask the imperial brother for advice tomorrow. After all, it is impossible to re-examine the autopsy by bypassing the examiners of the three legal divisions, and even if the autopsy results are out, I am afraid that they will be criticized.

Xiao Mingzhu, who had never spoken on the side, asked with a sad face at this time: "Third uncle, Sister Chu, is this case very tricky?" ”

Xiao Qinglang was silent, Xu Chu glanced at him, and seeing that he didn't have any hints, he sighed and said, "It's indeed a little tricky." The longer the time interval passes, the less the bodies of the first few people can be examined. Now, we can only hope that after the murderer commits the crime, he will have some mistakes left under his audacity. ”

Generally speaking, the perpetrators of serial homicides like this have either lost their caution under the rampant. Or, they will become more cautious and more daring and careful......

"Then who do you and the third uncle think the murderer will be?"

Xiao Qinglang frowned and shook his head, "I haven't investigated yet, so I can't speculate easily." Wait for the autopsy before making a judgment. ”

Fortunately, because of the importance of the matter, all the places where the corpses were found were guarded by the Three Law Divisions, and no one was allowed to enter or leave without permission. And the palace is too, near the water pavilion, it has long been closed to people.
