Chapter 160: Found
There was no news of Qiu Lu for a while, and Zhen Shicheng focused on the autopsy.
Mrs. Yongchangbo was not killed with one blow, but had several wounds, and in this case, wouldn't she make a sound to wake up Yongchangbo, who was sleeping beside her?
Zhen Shicheng pondered this question, and his eyes unconsciously fell on Jiang Yi.
Will this little girl, who goes straight to the wardrobe in the first place and finds important clues, know something?
Maybe he should have heard what she had to say.
Thinking of this, Zhen Shicheng strode towards Jiang Yi.
Xie Qingqi thought that Zhen Shicheng was looking for her to question, and her lips moved: "My lordβ"
Zhen Shicheng smiled gently: "Miss Xie don't have to be nervous, I have something I want to ask Miss Jiang." β
Jiang Yi smiled: "What does Lord Zhen want to ask?" β
"Miss Jiang, let's take a step to speak."
"Ah-" The sudden pain of losing his mother made Xie Qingqi extremely dependent on Jiang Qi.
Jiang seemed to pat the back of Xie Qingqi's hand comfortingly, and walked away with Zhen Shicheng.
Xie Qingqi watched the two of them walk to the tree in the distance and stand still, then he retracted his gaze and walked to Xie Yinlou's side, and said uneasily: "Brother, what do you say Lord Zhen wants to ask Ah Xiang?" β
Xie Yinlou's eyes were still chasing the slender figure, and he said in a low voice: "Maybe I asked her how she found the abnormality in the wardrobe." β
Zhen Shicheng wanted to ask about this, Jiang seemed to be silent for a moment, and said frankly: "I smelled a strange fragrance, and the source of that strange fragrance is the wardrobe." β
"Strange fragrance?" Zhen Shicheng thought of the smell of blood in the room, and couldn't help but shake his head, looking at Jiang with a look of surprise, "How did Miss Jiang smell it?" The official had been there for a long time just now, and he couldn't smell anything but the smell of blood. β
Thinking about it carefully, there was indeed a faint fragrance lingering in the wardrobe, and he thought it was the incense that women were used to.
Jiang seemed to blink, and his tone was playful: "Maybe it's the little girl who is talented." β
Zhen Shicheng smiled.
He didn't think that Jiang seemed to be fooling him.
I have been an official for many years, and I have seen too many people and things, and there are always some people who are different, those who never forget, and those who are born to know, compared to the little girl in front of me who just has an outstanding sense of smell, which is already ordinary.
However, this talent is really unique in solving crimes.
Zhen Shicheng stared at Jiang with burning eyes, and he couldn't wait for his son to quickly trick the little girl home, uh, no, he was married home, and he could justifiably obey him in the future.
"Miss Jiang, this official has a question I want to discuss with you." Jiang's unusualness made this extremely capable third-grade master invisibly put her in an equal position.
"Lord Zhen, please speak." Jiang didn't seem to show a sense of flattery, and still looked calm.
She has learned a lot and changed a lot from her previous life to this life, but she is still not good at how to flatter people and set up these things.
This is probably due to nature, she has never been a long-sleeved woman who is good at dancing, but a stupid girl who is tall and stubborn and loves to make a small temperament.
"Under what circumstances is it that a victim is attacked multiple times without making a sound to alarm the person sleeping next to him?" Zhen Shicheng already had a guess in his heart, but he liked to listen to other people's opinions and verify each other.
If the two guessed the same, it would undoubtedly be a very happy thing.
Jiang seemed not surprised by the question raised by Zhen Shicheng, and calmly said what he thought in his heart: "The little woman thinks it's some kind of incense. The murderer wants not to alarm the person sleeping next to the victim, but the victim can't make a sound is not foolproof, after all, everyone sleeps differently, some people sleep until dawn even if it is thundering and raining, and some people don't need to hear any sound, the uncomfortable smell can wake him up. So I think the biggest possibility is that Yongchangbo and his wife inhaled some kind of incense at that time, so that the murderer successfully completed the plan to kill and plant stakes. β
Zhen Shicheng nodded again and again, stroked his palms and said, "That's right, this is the greatest possibility!" β
Jiang Ru frowned and thought about it, and said, "The little woman has another guess. β
"You say." Zhen Shicheng's attitude towards Jiang Xiang became more and more solemn.
"That incense may have been lit by the murderer hiding in the closet, so the fragrance left in the wardrobe is the heaviest."
Jiang seemed to have been wondering what that strange fragrance was from the beginning, if it was the smell of incense on the murderer's body, it was unlikely that he would stay in the room for so long.
When she heard the autopsy made by the maid, she suddenly became enlightened, and suddenly thought of what the incense thing was most likely.
"It's just that the little woman doesn't understand a little, if she lights incense in the closet, how can the murderer ensure that she is not harmed by incense?"
Zhen Shicheng touched his beard and said: "There are many kinds of incense, since the murderer uses it, he must have taken precautions in advance." β
While the two were talking, a servant hurriedly ran over: "My lord, the person has been found!" β
Zhen Shicheng immediately stopped communicating with Jiang and asked, "Where are the people?" β
"In the lotus pond of Bofu Garden."
Zhen Shicheng immediately rushed to the lotus pond with his subordinates.
The lotus pond was already full of people, and when he saw Zhen Shicheng coming, the official immediately shouted: "Let's let us go, our adults are here." β
The crowd parted and made a way.
Jiang seemed to be following behind Zhen Shicheng, and as the crowd got out of the way, he saw the woman lying on the edge of the pool at a glance.
The woman's upper body was lying on the edge of the pool, revealing her swollen side face, and the lower half of her body was still immersed in water, and her dress was entwined with lotus leaves, the scene was extremely terrifying.
Xie Qingqi stared at the female corpse by the pool, clasping her hands.
The chatter of the people was buzzing.
"It's really Qiulu, how could she die here?"
"It's too scary, maybe Qiu Lu killed his wife and committed suicide."
Xie Qingqi trembled and held Jiang Yi's hand, on a June day, the girl's hand was as cold as ice: "Ah like, my mother has always been kind to Qiu Lu, how can she-"
Jiang seemed to shake Xie Qingqi's hand back slightly: "Everything has to be checked by Lord Zhen." β
When the female maid conducted an autopsy, Zhen Shicheng continued to interrogate.
"Uncle, since it was the autumn dew night last night, didn't you see her?"
"See, although it was the autumn dew night last night, Uchiko sent her down to rest."
"What time is it?"
Yongchangbo thought for a while and said, "It should be the end of the year and the beginning of the year." β
Zhen Shicheng slowly glanced at everyone: "Then who of you has seen autumn dew in the future?" β
The maid in the main courtyard couldn't help but look at the big maid Dongxue.
As everyone knows, two of Mrs. Bo's four big maids sleep in the same room, and it is Dongxue who is in the same room as Qiulu.
Dongxue was so frightened that she knelt down: "The maid is shallow, I can be sure that Qiulu has not come back!" β
"In other words, no one has seen autumn dew since the beginning of the year?"
Everyone was silent.
"Speak!" Yongchangbo roared.
At this time, a timid voice came: "There is something, the servant doesn't know whether to say it or not-"
"But it doesn't hurt to say it, everything is up to the official." Zhen Shicheng looked at the maid who spoke.
