Chapter 21: The True Murderer (3)
"Both of them had been poisoned before they died."
After a pause, Bai Hanyan looked at Bang'er and continued: "And this poison is nothing else, but an anesthetic extracted from the poppy, if the dosage is too much, it can paralyze people's whole body, so the murderer can easily kill people, and in the whole of Guiyang, the only person who can use poppies to paralyze people is the military doctor Bang'er." ”
"But, why did she do this, as far as I know, the military doctor Bang'er has no grudge against the three of her?" Cangli touched his chin and questioned.
"Because...... She loved Luan Ming, and when Chen Tingyu went to the harrier forest for Chen Siyu to bury the corpse that night, she happened to be seen by Bang'er, and when she saw that the person who was killed was Luan Ming, whom she loved deeply, the strong sorrow and heartache caused her to kill Chen Tingyu in such a cruel way. ”
"Then why didn't she kill Feng Chime and Chen Siyu together, and wait until last night when everyone suspected that the murderer was Chen Siyu and the others?" Cangli asked again.
"Because Bang'er is not sure, she only saw Chen Tingyu's abandoned corpse, and she didn't know what the truth was?"
Cangli nodded in realization.
"The strange laughter I heard in the harrier forest that day, and the person who attacked me in the bamboo forest, are you, Bang'er."
Bai Hanyan stared at Bang'er, waved his hand to signal the messenger to let go of her, walked to her side and continued: "And that day, Li Chengdu asked you to help lead out the murderer, and you happily agreed, because you know that Li Chengdu can't lead the murderer at all." It's just that you never expected that Li Chengdu would really attract the man in black, which also made you suspicious of Luan Ming's death, so you started to approach me in order to better investigate what you suspected,...... It wasn't until you found out that Feng Chime had an affair with Chen Siyu and knew that the child in Feng Chime's womb was not Luan Ming's, that you moved to kill.
”
Bang'er slowly raised her body, there was no trace of emotion on her face, only pure indifference and boundless dead silence, only when she saw Luan Ming's corpse, her eyes would light up.
"What Lord Han said is all speculation." A sinister aura rose around Bang'er's body, and at this time, she raised her eyes and glanced at Bai Hanyan, there was no clarity and warmth in her eyes, but instead of ruthlessness and gloom: "I remember that Lord Han once said that the murder weapon that killed Chen Tingyu was not a sword, but a silver wire or something, and it seems that Lord Han still hasn't found it, right?" ”
"What he said is right, Han Yan, even if Bang'er has a motive to kill again, there is no substantial evidence, and he still cannot be convicted." Duan Changge lowered his eyebrows and squinted at the white cold smoke, and reminded in a deep voice.
Bai Hanyan lowered his eyes and looked at Bang'er, couldn't help but feel heartache, and sighed: "Who said that I didn't find the murder weapon, didn't you take it out for me to see that day?" ”
Bang'er was a little stunned when she heard this, and immediately chuckled: "Lord Han is really as careful as dust, and he can't hide anything from you." ”
Bai Hanyan leaned over and took out a log box from her arms, and the blue moon jade buckle on it still had a hint of blood red.
"You're not afraid that I'll reveal your identity?" Bang'er whispered in her ear as she got up.
Bai Hanyan looked at her sneering face, and there was no fear in her heart, but she smiled openly: "I have nothing to fear in this world, I am only afraid that the real murderer cannot be punished, and the truth cannot be revealed!" ”
After saying that, he raised the box in his hand high and shouted to everyone in the hall: "This is the murder weapon that kills people." ”
"What is this?" Cang Li looked shocked: "This could be a murder weapon?" ”
Bai Hanyan nodded, and said to Duan Changge, who was sitting upright in the hall: "This is the ruler that Bang'er uses to measure medicinal materials on weekdays, Xia Guan once opened it to see, this ruler is made of extremely tough silk, and its blade is no worse than a sword." ”
"But you haven't found the lower body of Brother Chen Tingyu, Lord Han, although you are smart, I'm afraid you will never find it." Bang'er smiled contemptuously.
Bai Hanyan shook her head, she knew that Bang'er was no longer the innocent girl she knew, but an executioner who killed people without blinking.
"Lord Duan." Bai Hanyan bowed his hand to Duan Changge again: "The lower official has evidence to present." ”
"Bring it on." Duan Changge narrowed his eyes
。
Suddenly, the four little officials struggled to carry two pitch-black medicine jars and placed them in the hall, and Bang'er's face changed in an instant.
"Bang'er, you should be familiar with these two medicine tanks."
Bang'er's body trembled slightly, pursed her lips and said nothing.
"You mean to say that half of the bodies of the two of them are in this medicine vat." Duan Changge frowned, raised his hand and motioned for the little official to open the tight lid of the package, and when he landed, a smell of medicine mixed with a foul smell came to his face.
"Bring it down, bring it down!" Cangli covered his nose and waved his hand repeatedly, and the little official immediately lifted the two medicine jars down.
Bai Hanyan said: "Bang'er and a woman naturally can't resist the Chen family brothers who are extraordinary, so poisoning the two of them is her only choice, and the two of them have no defense against her appearance, Bang'er took the opportunity to use a silver needle full of poppies to pierce the legs of the two of them, and then commit murder after being paralyzed, but Bang'er also knows that the poppy has a characteristic, that is, after entering the human skin, the skin will become abnormally flushed, so he will not do anything, take away all the legs of the two of them, put them in the medicine tank at home, and destroy the evidence. ”
After a pause, she turned her head to look at Li Chengdu, and saw that he was staring at Bang'er, his eyes were red with resentment, and his hand uncontrollably hugged the wind chime in his arms.
Bai Hanyan returned his gaze to Bang'er, sighed heavily, and his heart was full of helplessness and sadness: "When Feng Chime lost her child that night, there was a moment when I doubted you, but I didn't believe that you were a wicked person from the bottom of my heart, so I dispelled this idea, and only pointed the finger of doubt at Chen Siyu and Feng Chime, so I went to find Lord Duan overnight to arrest the murderer, but I didn't expect that you would take advantage of this gap to kill both of her, and the means were even more cruel." ”
Cang Lihu looked at the corpses of Feng Chime and Chen Siyu suspiciously, and looked suspicious: "The way the two of them died is no different from Luan Ming and Chen Tingyu, how can they be more cruel?" ”
"It's not enough to kill people, but Chen Siyu was first punished in the heart, and then beheaded."
"Heartbreaking?"
"Not bad." Bai Hanyan's face was full of anger, his eyes stared straight at Bang'er, and he said sharply: "Bang'er, you first poisoned Chen Siyu, making him paralyzed and unable to move, and then you went to the house of the wind chime, just above the high pavilion, you took the bamboo that Li Chengdu had just cut from Chen Siyu's house, forcibly inserted it into the mouth of the wind chime, and kept pouring water into it, because the bamboo was fresh and unpolished, so the blade was very, and the wind chime was cut by the bamboo when he struggled, and the flesh and blood in his mouth were blurred, and he suffocated to death under extreme pain. And Chen Siyu actually watched the wind chimes being killed by you in the side pavilion, that kind of feeling like a knife cutting his heart, I am afraid that he will not die ten times! ”
Bang'er listened to Bai Hanyan's story quietly, her eyebrows lowered and she didn't say a word, Bai Hanyan stared at her and couldn't help but say angrily: "Bang'er, even if the wind chime is a great crime, you have been together for several years, how can you bear to kill her child and brutally kill her?" ”
Bang'er slowly raised her eyes to look at Bai Hanyan, her body trembled, and she laughed softly, and then the smile became deeper and deeper, and finally she laughed so much that even her waist trembled: "Cruel? Haha, what a joke! ”
Bang'er's eyes were full of mockery, and the anger on her body was even stronger: "Brother Luan loves her so much and gives her all his love, but in the end, what will happen to you, isn't the wind chime cruel, and Chen Siyu not cruel?" ”
"But there is my own law that punishes them, why do you bother to lynch them, how are you different from them?" Bai Hanyan said bitterly: "Bang'er, your hands are covered with blood, and this life will be ruined in hatred, for a person who doesn't love you, is it worth it to take your innocence and happiness?" ”
Bang'er stared at her, expressionless, and said word by word: "I am as happy as I am." ”
There was a slam that shook the hall, resounding throughout the yamen hall, Bai Hanyan's body trembled and his eyes were stunned, I don't know if it was because of this sound, or because of the words that knocked on his heart.
"The murder case of Luan Ming has been solved, the murderer Chen Siyu Fengchi is dead, and he will not be investigated, and the evidence of the murder of the military doctor Bang'er is conclusive, and the official ordered that he be beheaded in three days to show the public, so as to follow suit." Duan Changge announced the verdict in a cold voice, but Li Chengdu rushed up like crazy, knocked the defenseless Bai Hanyan aside, grabbed Bang'er's neck, gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "I killed you, I killed you!" ”
Several yacha hurriedly stepped forward to pull Li Chengdu and Bang'er away, and the scene was suddenly chaotic.
Bang'er let Li Chengdu and Yacha tear and pull like a puppet, but her eyes kept falling on Bai Hanyan, and for a moment, her face relaxed, and she gently hooked her lips and muttered a few words to Bai Hanyan.
Bai Hanyan's face changed in an instant, and he rushed towards Wan'er, but it was too late.
Bang'er's body slowly drooped to the ground to a withered flower, blood was spitting in her mouth, and the scarlet blood burned Bai Hanyan's eyes, she held her in her arms, and shouted at the servant: "Find the doctor, find the doctor!" ”
Duan Changge walked quickly from behind the copy, stretched out his hand to touch Bang'er's pulse, and for a moment he whispered: "It's arsenic, it's hopeless." ”
Bai Hanyan looked at Bang'er's miserable face, thinking about what she had just said: Sister, I'm sorry. Tears left uncontrollably: "Bang'er, why are you so stupid, is it worth it, is it worth it?" ”
Bang'er's face was unprecedentedly relaxed, the smile on her lips was like a flower, and she opened her lips with difficulty: "If, Luan Ming...... From the beginning, love is ...... Me, is it all going to be different? ”
A tear slipped from the corner of her eye, and with this regret, Bang'er slowly closed her eyes.
All this is finally settled.
Today, the wind is light, and on a high slope in the Harrier Forest, several new graves stand among the weeds.
Duan Changge stood up, looked at Bai Hanyan kneeling on the grave with his hands in his hands, burning paper money and paper clothes into the brazier one by one, and chuckled: "You can be a man." ”
Bai Hanyan lightly hooked his lips: "Isn't it good to have a lover who eventually becomes a family?" ”
Duan Changge didn't say anything, but raised his eyes to look at the names of the two people on the tombstone, slightly distracted.
"I think, if you give Luan Ming another chance to choose, he will choose Bang'er." Bai Hanyan gently wiped the names of Bang'er and Luan Ming on the tombstone, and then looked at the tombstone where Chen Siyu and the wind chime were buried together, and sighed lowly.
Perhaps, the wind chime is not absolutely ruthless to Luan Ming, at least she hesitated when she killed Luan Ming, so Luan Ming died an hour later than Orange.
It's just that this hour is more painful than death for Luan Ming.
Bai Hanyan thought, if God gave them another choice, what would be the ending.
Duan Changge sneered a few times, turned to leave, Bai Hanyan looked at the tail of his robe flashing in the corner of his eyes, but suddenly said intently: "Why did Lord Duan appear in the Harrier Forest that day?" ”
Duan Changge paused and glanced at her: "Do you doubt this official?" ”
"The lower officials don't dare." Bai Hanyan continued to burn paper money into the brazier, and said with a light smile: "Xia Guan is just a little unconvinced. ”
"Don't believe me?" Duan Changge walked towards her slowly, his thin lips slightly raised, as if he was smiling and contemptuous, and his eyes were cold.
Bai Hanyan raised his eyes to look directly at him and chuckled, "I just don't believe there will be such a coincidence in this world." ”
Duan Changge leaned down and slowly approached her, his eyes flashed with a treacherous light, he stretched out his fingers to stroke the hair next to Bai Hanyan's sideburns, and said with a smile: "If I said that I was chasing your taste, would you believe it?" ”
