Chapter 084: Perfect Confession
Chen Ying completely ignored this, and only looked at Pei Shu fixedly, with a mocking look in his eyes: "Master Pei, is he planning to close the case like this?" Suicide by throwing himself into the lake? ”
Pei Shuwei smiled, raised his eyebrows and said, "What's the matter?" Does Miss Chen San have any other evidence to prove that Jiao Xing did not commit suicide by throwing herself into the lake? ”
He turned his gaze away and looked at Jiao Xing's body, his dark brows furrowed, and his voice changed to his usual coldness: "The deceased soaked under the water for three months. Even the most experienced ones are difficult to detect extradermal injuries. My people have experienced her bones, and have come to three conclusions: first, the bones show no signs of blackening, so the possibility of poisoning is ruled out; 2. The limbs and skull are intact, and the possibility of killing is ruled out; Third, the laryngeal bone is intact, so the possibility of strangulation is ruled out. ”
Chen Ying looked at him with some surprise.
She didn't expect that Pei Shu had a deep insight into the methods of murder, but in this short article, he pointed out the three most common forms of killing. It turned out that this Master Pei was still a very experienced criminal official, so it was no wonder that he would be transferred to the Criminal Department.
However, even so, his rhetoric is still too one-sided.
"If someone ties her hands and feet, gagged her, and throws her into the water, it can kill as well." Chen Ying said, his tone returning to his former calmness, "In addition, it is also a way to use drugs, alcohol or other things to make him faint and then throw him into the water." ”
"The wound outside the skin is difficult to detect at this moment." Pei Shu shook his head and said, as if he hadn't noticed, his patience was getting better: "As for drugs and the like, this corpse has been soaked in water for several months, and nothing has been soaked, how can I check?" ”
"I'm not asking an adult to examine her for skin wounds, or for alcohol or drugs or anything like that." Chen Ying explained, looking extremely serious: "I mean, please ask Master Pei to shift the direction of the investigation to the people." A big living person is gone, and it is impossible for the people around him not to know, so why don't you visit more? ”
Pei Shu half-tilted his head, looked Chen Ying up and down with the rest of his gaze, and said, "In the eyes of Miss Chen San, the officials of our Criminal Department seem to be useless." ”
As he spoke, he took out a stack of paper from his sleeve, shook it twice in his hand, and raised half of his eyebrows: "If I say that I have obtained enough confessions to close the case, will Miss Chen believe it or not?" ”
Chen Ying stared at him for a while, then stretched out his hand: "Show me." After a pause, he felt that his tone did not seem to be very good, so he changed his words again: "Please show me the confession." ”
Even though there was an extra word "please", her tone remained unchanged, calm to the point of rigidity.
Pei Shu hugged his arms with one hand and supported his chin with the other, looked at her thoughtfully for a while, and suddenly raised the raised eyebrows again: "If the official doesn't want you, I'm afraid that if it's a girl, you will have to make a note on that little fold?" ”
"I will." Chen Ying nodded immediately, as if he didn't hear the teasing meaning in his words at all: "Every word that the adults say, every step of the adults in the investigation of the case, I will record it in detail and present it to Your Majesty at the right time." ”
"Wow, you really write!" Pei Shu raised his eyebrows and shouted, his fingers scraped over his chin, and after a few breaths, Fang shook his head and smiled: "The girl is on the order to investigate the case, and this official can't ignore it." So he showed the confession to the girl. ”
After finishing speaking, something flashed in his lowered eyes, and he laughed twice: "It's not important anyway." ”
He spoke slowly, but he moved very crisply, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he handed over the confession.
Chen Ying didn't say anything polite to him, he took the paper in his hand, and only glanced at it, and his heart was cold for a moment.
This is really a confession, and it is quite complete on visual inspection.
She didn't bother to pay attention to Pei Shu anymore, and looked at it at a glance.
This confession was made by five witnesses, three of whom were servants in the courtyard of the prince of Xingjibo, and the confessions of the prince and his wife.
In the confession, everyone said in unison that Jiao Xing competed fiercely with a beautiful maid named Xiao Zhen before her death, and just a few days before her disappearance, she had another dispute with Xiao Zhen, and was punished by Mrs. Shizi for kneeling for half a day. At that time, the prince didn't take much care of her, and called Xiao Zhen to serve for several days. Jiao Xing became a little disheartened, and showed her misanthropy several times, and a few days later, she disappeared.
Hao Duanduan suddenly lost a maid, and he was still the pillow person of the prince, and the lady of the prince, who was in charge of the housekeeping of the first courtyard, asked herself. didn't want to, but Xiao Zhen suddenly jumped out, only to say that Jiao Xing ran away, and said that many valuable jewelry in her house were also wrapped up by Jiao Xing.
Fugitive slave plus stealing, this matter is not small, Mrs. Shizi wanted to report to the government, but Shizi Ye is a person who misses the old love, probably pity Jiao Xing was spoiled by him, so he stopped Mrs., only said that it was just a girl, ran away, once reported to the fugitive slave, it was tantamount to forcing her to a dead end, in the end it hurt the heavens and the peace.
As a result, no one made a public announcement about this matter, and the prince sent someone to find it privately, but he didn't bother too much. In his confession, he claimed that he planned to report his illness to the government office in a few days, which can be regarded as a complete love affair with Jiaoxing.
"Two months ago, Xiao Zhen was sold." Pei Shu's voice rang out, still with a little carelessness: "As for the reason for the sale, it is that this Xiao Zhen is disrespectful to the housewife and acts flamboyantly, so Mrs. Shizi took the lead and sent her away." ”
A perfect confession, perfect to the point of almost distortion.
Chen Ying's face was pale, and he was no longer angry.
She was not an irritable person in the first place, and the intense and short-lived emotions of Fang Cai were also in the conversation with Pei Shu, and after getting this confession, they all dissipated.
It was one of the things she had expected, but it came sooner than she had expected.
She held the pile of paper, no questioning, no dissatisfaction, the breath on her body was calm and distant, like a peaceful lake in front of her, and what she said had nothing to do with it.
"I found out that Master Pei came alone." She said, raised her head and stared at Pei Shu, the corners of her mouth curled: "My lord...... Don't believe it, do you? ”
A very abrupt question.
Pei Shu's complexion changed slightly.
It's just that the aura on his body is really complicated, suitable for officials and bandits, and always a little cynical, so this slight change is also integrated in the middle, and it is difficult to distinguish between them.
