The old man of the yamen was also a little impatient: "Did you find anything?"

The corners of Bai Wushuang's mouth curled lightly: "Things are indeed strange."

"Tell me more."

"There's no hurry." Bai Wushuang said and turned the corpse's arm again, motioning for him to feel it.

"This corpse was found when it was ugly, but the corpse is now in a stiff state, if the ugly time is the time of the woman's death, then the corpse is only slightly hard at most, and there will be no such stiffness."

Hearing Bai Wushuang's words, he was a little surprised, and asked him with his eyes, and he nodded, proving that what Bai Wushuang said was correct.

Bai Wushuang continued: "From this, I determine that the time of death of the corpse is not the ugly time, but before the ugly time."

"Moreover, if she hanged herself, at the last moment, she would have stretched out her tongue due to lack of oxygen, but this corpse did not, so it can be seen that she was not hanged either."

In just a few words, it set off huge waves in everyone's hearts, and they thought that a simple case was so complicated.

If the case is judged in such a vague way, and the murderer is followed, won't this woman be unjustly killed?

Just when everyone was talking, the shopkeeper said unrelentingly: "General, don't listen to her nonsense, she said this to clear her suspicion."

As soon as the shopkeeper's words fell, he felt a sharp gaze shoot at him, and when he looked back, he saw Bai Wushuang leaning on the pillar, looking at him with a smile.

In fact, Bai Wushuang was also more curious, what kind of benefit would make this person so desperate to splash dirty water on them?

The old man of the yamen thought for a long time, and then sorted out what he had just reported to him, and looked at Bai Wushuang with a complicated expression: "What you said is good, but what evidence is there to prove that you are not a murderer?"

"This is easy to do, the adults will release me first, and I will naturally give the adults a satisfactory answer."

Bai Wushuang's voice fell, and the shopkeeper immediately shouted: "My lord, you can't let go of the murderer!"

"The shopkeeper reacted so violently, isn't the shopkeeper afraid of finding out something?" Bai Wushuang sneered, and the meaning in his tone was very obvious.

The shopkeeper swallowed his saliva and didn't dare to say anything more......

"Okay, this official will release you, if you dare to play any tricks, this official will definitely do his best to arrest you."

"Thank you, sir!" Bai Wushuang arched his hand and turned back to his room, paying attention to the movement downstairs.

After they left, Bai Wushuang quietly slipped out and stripped off the corpse's clothes, in ancient times, she would be scolded for disrespecting the corpse, she could only choose to act in secret.

Sure enough, there were some kiss marks on the corpse, as well as obvious signs of struggle.

The corners of Bai Wushuang's mouth hooked up a smile, straightened the corpse's clothes, and slipped back as if nothing happened.

After sitting in the inn for a while, Chi Jingyu walked in with a cold face, and Bai Wushuang anxiously checked his whole body to make sure that he was not tortured.

After breathing a sigh of relief, I wanted to laugh at myself for being stupid, what kind of person is Chi Jingyu, if anyone can make him hurt, then don't do it to him, a general.

Chi Jingyu held Bai Wushuang's hand, made a color, and motioned for Bai Wushuang to go in and speak.

"I think it's probably the shopkeeper."

The two sat opposite each other at the table, and Chi Jingyu spoke.

Bai Wushuang shook his head: "I don't think so, if it were him, he wouldn't react so strongly when facing the corpse."

Although the two disagreed, Chi Jingyu knew that Bai Wushuang had always been keen on problems, and acquiesced to her investigating according to her own ideas.

After leaving the prison, Bai Wushuang first ruled out the suspicion of the shopkeeper through a secret visit.

In this way, she can focus her investigation on others.

That night, she left the town when the night was quiet and went to Yizhuang, which was two miles away.

There is no time to delay for now, as the decomposition of corpses in the damp environment will accelerate, and if it is delayed for another day, it will be more difficult to find key evidence.

Bai Wushuang tied his long hair in his hat, dressed in black, and quietly sneaked into Yizhuang, where he saw a caretaker over half a hundred years old dozing off at the door of the dilapidated house.

She cautiously turned sideways, not wanting to open the door's eyes when the caretaker opened it.

"Who? Even the idea of a corpse was hit! The caretaker was startled at first, but when he saw that the masked Bai Wushuang was a little thin, he became a lot bolder.

Bai Wushuang knew that he couldn't reveal his identity, so he grabbed the stones on the ground and threw them at the guards.

Hearing a muffled scream, the caretaker staggered to the ground.

"Get a good night's sleep!" Bai Wushuang snorted and helped the caretaker who had fallen to the ground to his chair.

Walking into Yizhuang, there are only a few lanterns lit in the dark, and the rancid smell can be smelled even through the black coarse cloth, and the further you go, the stronger the smell.

"It stinks...... It's better to leave here as soon as you're done. Bai Wushuang frowned and muttered to himself, coughing dry because of the choking smell, and tears were about to flow out.

In the dim light, she finally caught a glimpse of the corpse lying in the corner.

Out of respect for the deceased, Bai Wushuang stepped forward and clasped his hands together and whispered: "It's no wonder, I'm also wronged for you." ”

Then Bai Wushuang endured the ubiquitous stench, approached the female corpse that had not yet entered the coffin, and stood in front of the morgue to untie her coat.

After a brief observation, she became more and more sure of her judgment, the body was suspended for a short time, and that it had died before that, and that the blood had not collected at the end of the limb after death.

Bai Wushuang slowly turned over the lifeless body again, and found that the back of the morgue was the same skin color as the rest of the body.

"It's been so long since you've been dead and you haven't seen a corpse spot?" Bai Wushuang asked herself suspiciously, she clearly remembered the characteristics of the corpse described in the book.

After re-tying the deceased's clothes, Bai Wushuang lifted the petticoat again, and then she found a bigger clue.

In the faint light, I saw imperceptible mottled blood stains hanging between the legs of the corpse, obviously having been wiped afterwards.

It has been confirmed that the female guest officer was violated during her lifetime, and the only thing left is to remove the toxins left in her body.

However, the toxins have been absorbed and decomposed in the body, and Bai Wushuang must find another way, and the conventional method of collecting toxins obviously cannot work.

After some thought, Bai Wushuang took out the dagger he had brought with him in advance and cut it at the pale and blue skin of the deceased.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Bai Wushuang couldn't help but exclaim, "How could this be? ”

She saw that the clotted dark red blood clots were silvery-white, as if oil paint was mixed in with them.

The obvious signs of poisoning are strange and unpredictable, and the toxins left in the female guest officer's body are extremely special, and there is no relevant record in the book.

Bai Wushuang carefully preserved the strangely colored blood in a vessel, restored the corpse to its original state, and left Yizhuang.

Next, she narrowed down the scope of her verification, and spent most of her day finding a book that recorded strange news in southern Xinjiang, and found records about strange poisons in southern Xinjiang.

After comparison, she soon found that there was a poison called water paint poison that was completely consistent with the situation of the female guest officer, and went directly to the yamen, and after presenting this discovery, the old man of the yamen was immediately speechless.

Although this matter is still confusing, it can finally help Chi Jingyu get rid of suspicion.

In the evening of the same day, the master of the yamen sincerely apologized, and then let him go.

The two returned to the inn together, wary and wary of the current situation, and did not begin to discuss the matter until they entered the room.

Chi Jingyu asked with a gleng look in his eyes: "Are you sure that the poison in that woman is the water paint poison of southern Xinjiang?" ”

Bai Wushuang nodded affirmatively, and took out the evidence contained in the vessel to show Chi Jingyu.

"Water paint poison is colorless, odorless, and easily soluble in water, and after taking it, she will immediately fall into a coma and die of poison within half an hour, I suspect that she voluntarily took it before being violated."

Hearing her explanation, Chi Jingyu said thoughtfully: "You mean she doesn't know anything about the whole process?" Violated unconsciously? ”

Chi Jingyu observed the dark red blood clots wrapped in silver-white oil on the outer layer, and the poisoning phenomenon was indeed as Bai Wushuang said.

Once the body is poisoned, the toxin will slowly seep into the bloodstream, and the two will be neutralized to form a silvery white color, which will attach and envelop the blood until it completely coagulates.

Bai Wushuang nodded, put the utensils away and responded: "This is the most reasonable inference, but it seems that she was instigated by others before she fell unconscious, and her purpose is unknown." ”

Hearing this, Chi Jingyu was inspired, his eyes flashed and he said: "It seems that she is just a pawn of the people behind the scenes, why is this matter not sooner or later, it happened next door to us, maybe it is no accident." ”

Bai Wushuang also agreed with his speculation, originally they were tight-lipped about their trip to Southern Xinjiang, but someone died of the strange poison in Southern Xinjiang and died under their noses.

Antecedents and consequences, the spearhead has an obvious point.

"It seems that someone is coming at us, and it seems that they are secretly preventing us from going to southern Xinjiang, or for another purpose." Bai Wushuang said as he pondered, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Chi Jingyu making a gesture of boos to her.

Bai Wushuang was stunned, his eyes widened and he leaned over to him and whispered: "What's going on, is there an ear on the wall?" ”

"Shhhh......h

Bai Wushuang's heart suddenly rose to her throat, and she couldn't help but feel a little nervous, full of worry about Chi Jingyu.

If there really was an assassin listening outside the window, Chi Jingyu would inevitably have to fight the other party, and Bai Wushuang didn't want him to add new injuries to the crime of being imprisoned.

The sky gradually darkened, and the moment the oil lamp was lit, two figures appeared inside and outside the window.

"What people!" Chi Jingyu roared angrily and pushed open the window with lightning speed.

However, the black shadow dressed in the costume of southern Xinjiang only glanced at him, and his agile and thin body jumped up to the eaves lightly, and the trembling sound of tiles swished.

"Wood, don't chase it!" Bai Wushuang saw that he was about to climb out of the window to chase the assassin, and immediately stopped him.

The sound of tiles on the eaves faded away, and the Assassin disappeared into the night.

The dim oil lamp was lit in the guest room, and Chi Jingyu was persuaded to stop, but he was unwilling, and leaned over and looked out of the window for a long time.

Bai Wushuang instructed Xiao Er to bring the dinner food to the house, she looked at Chi Jingyu's gloomy face and sighed softly.
