Everyone stared at it, but saw that this official was extremely thin, and the fruit was similar to Ziqi's height and shape.

Chen Ying came to the hall again at this time, with both arms exerting force, he raised the "Qiao Xiaodi No. 2", placed it near the thin little official, turned to the three officials and explained: "The 'Qiao Xiaodi No. 1' is specially used to demonstrate the wound, so that the adults can see the direction of the knife clearly. The 'Little Brother Qiao No. 2' is stuffed with some cotton wool, leather and other materials, similar to the real body, which can be used to demonstrate the action of a knife piercing the body. ”

Everyone had already discovered that the "Little Brother Qiao" No. 2 was also marked with the location of the knife wound, which was exactly the same as the "No. 1", but the weight was obviously heavier, and Chen Ying had some difficulty when he lifted it.

After placing the paper figure, Chen Ying took off the cloth cover on the top of the thin wooden stick in his hand, and it turned out that the tip of the wooden stick was extremely sharp, and the red paint was burning, like a drop of blood, which was quite terrifying.

"This wooden thorn is the same length and sharpness as the murder weapon. Previously, after many verifications, the Minnu came to the conclusion that the tip of this wooden thorn pierced the body of 'Qiao Xiaodi No. 2', and its feel, resistance, and travel trajectory were extremely close to the real knife stabbing body. Now, the maiden wants to ask the official to demonstrate the action of stabbing. ”

She handed the wooden stick to the official and smiled: "Assuming you are Ziqi, please stab this paper man with this stick." Fu took a few steps closer and whispered a few words to him.

The official took the wooden stick, looking confused, obviously not understanding too much.

Chen Ying had to talk about it again before the official could figure it out.

But he also knew the courtesy, and cautiously confessed to the top, and then took the wooden thorn and walked to the back of "Little Brother Qiao No. 2".

"Please stab in this position, don't deviate." Chen Ying said, deliberately pointing out the red mark that stabbed the heart: "This knife is the most serious fatal wound, and it is of great significance in this case to demonstrate the direction of its wound, remember." ”

The officer nodded, lifted the stick, and stabbed hard at the red mark.

However, he soon felt awkward.

He was nearly a head shorter than the paper figure, and if he wanted to pierce from the marked position, he had to hold the stick flat to his lips.

At this angle, it is difficult to exert force.

He tried three times, but the stick always pierced a little half, and he couldn't get it in again.

He thought about it for a moment and switched to holding the stick with his backhand.

This posture is obviously better.

He thrust forward again, and the stick finally landed smoothly.

"Stop!" Chen Ying immediately shouted.

The officer was startled, and the movements of his hands suddenly stopped.

Chen Ying asked him to step back first, and successively showed the back and front of "Qiao Xiaodi No. 2" to the hall: "Adults, please look at the trend of this knife, the mark on the back of the middle at the entrance, but its exposure is far from the original position marked on the chest. ”

Chen Ying carried the "Qiao Xiaodi No. 1" over again, and made a mark on the chest of the "Qiao Xiaodi No. 1" according to the bleeding point stabbed by the officials on the "Qiao Xiaodi No. 2", and then connected the head and tail of the knife, and as a result, a "↙" shaped line was obtained.

In this way, the knife stabbed by the Xu official is in the shape of a ">" with the original knife wound, and its starting point is the same, but the end point is completely opposite.

Chen Ying pointed to these two lines, faced the three officials in front of the hall, and said, "You have also seen that if you are holding a knife in your forehand, with Ziqi's height, it is difficult to stab Qiao Xiaodi in the position of fatal injury. And if it is changed to a backhand knife that is easy to exert force, the trend of this knife is completely opposite to Qiao Xiaodi's original knife wound. ”

There was silence above and below the hall.

According to Chen Ying's demonstration, it seemed impossible for Ziqi to stab such a knife wound on Junior Brother Qiao's body.

You know, the official is a man, and with the strength of a man, he can basically lift the murder weapon to the jaw and stab it upward, let alone a woman?

"Miss Chen's words are far-fetched." Cao Zilian finally raised an objection.

Up and down the hall, there was no sound, but he spoke calmly and circled back and forth.

"Killing people is not a drill, the scene is changing rapidly, how can you be like you, everyone stands in a row, and there is no superfluous step?" He curled his lips mockingly, and looked at Chen Ying coldly:

"Since a criminal has the intention to kill and has his own plan, what about his short stature? Wouldn't it be enough to take something and pad it? Besides, who guarantees that Little Brother Qiao will be stabbed while standing? If he accidentally slipped and stabbed these knife wounds with the strength of a human offense, it would not seem difficult to do so. ”

"Lord Cao's opinion is very pertinent." Chen Ying didn't refute him, but even nodded in agreement: "Then, next, let's rehearse these two situations according to what Master Cao said." still asked this official to play Ziqi. ”

Chen Ying returned to the small lacquer case and whispered a few words to an errand officer, who hurried away, and after a while, four men dressed as chamberlains stepped into the court.

"There's a eunuch of Laosun." Chen Ying bowed to the man in advance.

As soon as they saw this person, the three chief judges in the hall were all accommodating.

That eunuch Sun is not an outsider, it is the second-class steward of Jianzhang Palace-Sun Chaoli.

Chen Ying's face was as usual, and she said with a smile: "Your Majesty is the eunuch Sun and leads three junior eunuchs to supervise the whole process of the people's women's investigation and evidence collection. Due to the limited manpower, the folk girl dared to ask him to help demonstrate. ”

Everyone had already heard of this matter, and when they saw that Chen Ying really invited the waiter, Zhao Wuyi disdained it, and Cao and Xu were silent.

Sun Chaoli returned the salute, led the three little eunuchs to step forward, and bowed down like candles outside the four screens: "The slaves and maids have seen Your Majesty." ”

"Up." Behind the screen, he whispered, and without saying more, He Shun'an then appeared and said sharply: "Your Majesty is waiting for you to do things." ”

Sun Chaoli complied, bent down and retreated to the bottom of the hall, and smiled at Chen Ying: "If you delay Miss Chen's big business, the miscellaneous family will sue you." ”

Chen Yingzi would not blame him, greeted him with a few words, and cut to the point: "Now I want to ask Eunuch Sun to present the evidence and explain it to the three adults." ”

Sun Chaoli waved his hand with a smile, turned to the front of the hall, and lowered his face: "The three adults, the slaves and maids have been searching around with Miss Chen for the past three days, and have done a lot of verifications, and now the two scenes when the little brother Qiao died, are demonstrated to the public. ”

He turned around and waved his hand, and the three little eunuchs went outside the hall, lifting and lifting, and brought several pieces of furniture.

"Let's assume the first scenario first: Ziqi used things to cushion her feet, raised her body, and stabbed Brother Qiao to death." Chen Ying said in the tone of a narrator, pointing to the furniture in front of the hall one by one: "There are three kinds of things that can be used for stepping feet in Brother Qiao's house: foot pedals, round chairs, and armchairs. ”

Sun Chaoli also said: "The slaves and maids have weighed, and the height, size, and weight of these three pieces of furniture are the same as those in Qiao's little brother's house, and the shape is also the same. ”

He bent down, took a few steps back, and gave up his position, and Chen Ying asked the thin little official to step forward again, and let him stand on the footrest, round stool, and armchair in turn, raise his body, and then attack "Little Brother Qiao No. 2" with sharp wooden thorns.
