Chapter Fifty-Six: The Fish That Slipped Through the Net

Along the way, Yun Sheng couldn't understand why Zhang Qiye asked her to solve Zhang Jiusheng's heart disease, and then she didn't find Zhang Jiusheng for the next whole day.

When she stood at the door of the Yamen autopsy room, she thought to herself, Zhang Jiusheng is really becoming more and more mysterious, and she doesn't know who she learned from.

Coincidentally, Zhang Tong was carrying the autopsy box and was about to go out.

As soon as Yun Sheng saw his equipment, he immediately became interested, and at the same time put Zhang Jiusheng's abnormality behind, grabbed Zhang Tong's arm, and asked with great interest: "What are you going to do?" What's wrong? ”

Zhang Tong rolled his eyes, his face was a little unkind, he put Yunsheng's hand away, and said: "You also know that something is wrong, if you want me to come forward, the least thing is nothing more than an injury, you still look happy?" ”

Yun Sheng was stunned, touched his face, immediately restrained his expression, and began to reflect on herself, when did she start to care about human life?

Seeing her like this, Zhang Tong also softened his expression and said, "The Xiao family has been destroyed, and the only young master of the Xiao family is missing, I am going to go now, do you want to pack up and go with you?" ”

"Yes!"

In a hurry, Yun Sheng took his autopsy box and followed out of the yamen.

"It's good to like to learn, but you seem to have forgotten that we are all fakes." Zhang Tong walked in front of him, and said slowly in a low voice: "We want to do justice, no matter whether this person was a wicked person or a good person in his life, he is just a poor person when he dies, what happened to him in his life, we must tell the world through our hands, and the body he left behind is the only evidence that he has lived in this world." ”

"Hmm." Yun Sheng nodded heavily.

Just now, she is indeed frivolous, and she really deserves to be beaten well.

"Even though we have seen many lives and deaths, we still need to be in awe of life." Before stepping into the gate of Xiao Mansion, Zhang Tong stopped and turned his head to Yun Sheng.

"Understood." Yun Sheng was also extremely solemn.

The tragic situation of Xiao Mansion made Zhang Tong frown, for many years in Fan County, he has been at the scene of many murders, but he has never been at the scene of the murder case. When they arrived, they saw blood beginning to appear from the gate, that is, the porter Xiao Bo was the first to suffer misfortune.

"A knife cuts the throat." Zhang Tong squatted next to the cold corpse of Xiao Bo in the porter, and his tone was heavy.

Yun Sheng was stunned: "It's the same as Mr. Zhou and Zeng You's death." ”

Zhang Tong was silent, and only got up after a long time, and said: "But we can't be sure that it is the same person who does these three things, maybe someone is imitating, and a fatal knife is the usual method used by many people who practice martial arts, saving time and energy, and killing all the people in a house in one night, even if they are all powerless people, it is not easy." ”

Yun Sheng said: "Yes, I'll go in and have a look." ”

"Where's Guan Chu?" Zhang Tong suddenly grabbed a small catcher who was about to carry the corpse of the porter Xiao Bo on a stretcher and asked.

The little catcher was stunned, and then said: "Guan Zhutou was in it early in the morning, and he said that he was counting the number of people." ”

"Oh, go ahead, be careful." Zhang Tong thought for a moment, watched the little catcher carefully carry Xiao Bo's body onto the stretcher, sighed and followed into the courtyard.

Because it was night when the accident happened, the courtyard was very clean, and almost all of the people who were killed died in their own beds, including the lord and wife of the Xiao family, as well as several concubines, all of whom died in the same condition, all of them had their throats cut. The perpetrator's methods are extremely simple, without a trace of emotion and pity, as neat as crushing an ant.

The hearts of all the people who watched this sank.

Although the Xiao family's reputation in Fan County is not very good, no matter how you say it, it is dozens of lives.

"The murderer acted decisively, even if he came to destroy the door, I don't know who this Xiao family offended, and he actually suffered such a catastrophe." Guan Chuzheng walked out of a concubine's room, clapped his hands, looked up and said to Zhang Tong, who was waiting outside the door: "The third aunt of the Xiao family, who is not yet 20 years old, was killed in her sleep, even if she is a murderer, she still has a little conscience, she didn't let her die too painfully, I roughly checked it, and these people who had an accident in the Xiao family died in the same way." But you better go in and have a look, you're more professional than me. ”

Zhang Tong didn't speak, and stepped into the house in silence, while Yun Sheng didn't follow, she checked every room where the accident happened as quickly as possible, and finally came to the same conclusion as when she first entered the Xiao Mansion and saw Xiao Bo's body.

The murderer is a person.

It was also him who killed Zhou Xuanming and Zeng You.

Guan Chu took a small group of people to help, and soon moved all the corpses of Xiao Mansion back to Yamen, and Zhang Tong's coroner's coroner had to be expanded, with a total of 37 corpses, from the old man to the child, not a single one was spared.

"Crazy." Yun Sheng looked at the bones of a child who was not yet ten years old and said angrily.

Zhang Tong's fist hidden in his sleeve has not been released since he stepped into the Xiao Mansion, and when he saw the child, he instantly smashed his fist against the wall. He breathed hard, trying to calm his emotions, but the turmoil in his heart fell like a raging storm, smashing him all over his body.

He never thought that the other party would be so desperate.

If those adults may have done wrong, how can this child do something unreasonable? If you are innocent, you will not die well.

"Huh? Why didn't you see the corpse of the young master of the Xiao family? Yun Sheng took a book and asked.

Zhang Tong finally came to his senses, took the book, compared the corpses one by one, and frowned: "I just remembered that when I was in the Xiao Mansion just now, it seems that Guan Chu said that he didn't find the body of the young master of the Xiao family." ”

"No body found." Yun Sheng muttered.

Suddenly, Zhang Tong's eyes lit up: "I didn't find the body, maybe the person is still alive." ”

Hearing Zhang Tong say this, Yun Sheng couldn't help but feel a little hope in his heart.

"The master of the Xiao family is a well-known bully in Fan County who is unreasonable, several aunts and wives in his house were robbed and deceived, and the son Xiao Hengyan he gave birth to is also a master who bullies the soft and is afraid of the hard, and often robs the women of the good family, I don't know how many times he has been arrested by Guan Chu, at that time, the adults were not very in charge, so they only sent Guan Chu to deal with it." Zhang Tong said slowly: "Maybe on the night of the accident, Xiao Hengyan was not at home and escaped the catastrophe, and I don't know where this kid will be?" ”

Yun Sheng frowned, at first glance, it seemed that some of Xiao Hengyan's behaviors were very familiar, and after thinking about it, don't you like beautiful girls in general?

"Since that's the case, then I'll go to Guan Chu now, and let him go to the Goolan yard, the teahouse and the theater to find it, maybe this kid is still sleeping in which gentle township, I don't know what happened at home? If he were still alive, he would know who was going to destroy their family. ”

Zhang Tong nodded and urged: "You hurry up, I'll come to the autopsy first." ”

When Yun Sheng found Guan Chu, he was patrolling the streets, and when he heard Yun Sheng and Zhang Tong's thoughts, he nodded again and again, called a few quick catchers, and assigned them to different urban areas of Fan County one by one to search, and also sent a few people to guard the gate of Xiao Mansion, for fear that Xiao Hengyan would suddenly go home.

Zhang Jiusheng hadn't seen anyone for a day, Yun Sheng and Zhang Tong were in trouble with dozens of corpses, they didn't think of Zhang Jiusheng at all, and when he came to the door by himself, Yun Sheng was already so tired that he was paralyzed on the ground, and he didn't want to move.

"Guan Chu told me everything." When Zhang Jiusheng came to the door of the autopsy room, he looked at Yun Sheng, who was looking up at him, and opened his mouth to say.

"Good work." He said, very sincerely.

"My lord, in the tragedy of destroying the door, thirty-seven corpses, all of them died by cutting their throats with extremely sharp daggers, and they were not tortured. There was no murder weapon at the scene, the murderer came and walked quickly, and he left after killing people, without stopping or hesitating at all. Zhang Tong took off his gloves, picked up the white cloth that was put aside and wiped his sweat.

Zhang Jiusheng sighed: "What about the person who reported the crime? ”

"The report is a distant relative of the Xiao family, Lu Zhi, who just entered the city this morning, is a painter, and came to paint at the invitation of Xiao Ting'an, two out of forty, has a wife and children at home, and is happy, I haven't heard that there is a conflict with Xiao Ting'an. Even if there is, it won't be so serious as killing the whole family, plus he paints, Xiao Tingan is giving money, and he has a good life, there is no need to get along with money for a person like Xiao Tingan. Zhang Tong held a small book that he used to record clues at any time, and said slowly: "What's more, he doesn't know martial arts, and the one who kills the Xiao family is a master." ”

"Then there's no suspicion." Zhang Jiusheng said.

Zhang Tong shook his head, with a little embarrassment on his face: "Xiao Ting'an acted domineering in the past, and he had too many enemies, if it is said that someone can't get over it in his heart, it is not impossible to buy murder." ”

"Indeed." Zhang Jiusheng stuck his waist in his head, and his mind was full of mush.

Yun Sheng looked at it and interjected: "Guan Zhutou has already taken people to investigate the county's Goolan courtyards, teahouses and theaters, Young Master Xiao may still be alive, as long as he is alive, we can find some clues from him." ”

"We can't just rely on Xiao Hengyan, this kid is too unreliable." Zhang Jiusheng said.

Zhang Tong deeply agrees with this.

Zhang Jiusheng thought for a while, looked at Yun Sheng and said, "You go to Xiao Mansion with me again, Zhang Tong will try to see if he can find other clues on the corpse." ”

Zhang Tong nodded, turned around and went back to the autopsy room.

And the two of them also went to the Xiao Mansion non-stop, but Zhang Jiusheng seemed to have forgotten a little, the Xiao Mansion was destroyed, and the house was full of blood, and when he was just about to step into the threshold of the gate, the faint smell of blood wafting from the air stopped him from moving forward and choked the throat of his fate.

He felt that his life was facing great resistance at this moment.

Yun Sheng took a few steps forward, easily crossed the threshold, only to realize that Zhang Jiusheng did not follow up, turned around, thought about it, suddenly pulled an arc, and said shyly: "My lord, come in!" ”
