This is the second naked corpse murder case in Wangzhou.

A few days ago, in Fengshui County, there was also an 18-year-old woman who died naked, suffered humiliation before her death, and finally died in the wilderness.

The female corpse found in the Red Lake this time is exactly the same as the previous female corpse. Before his death, he struggled violently, his body was bruised, his fatal injuries were strangled to death, and the valuable objects on his body were also looted, so it was called the "flower picking robbery".

Qingyuan County Ya.

Back hall.

Lin Boqin sat beside the Taishi's chair and listened carefully to the autopsy report.

“…… Judging from the bruised fingerprints on his neck, the villain preliminarily judged that the two murders were committed by the same person. After finishing his work, he presented the written corpse grid to Lin Boqin.

Lin Boqin glanced at the corpse and frowned, "The suspect is obviously an adult male, but I don't know if he is still in Qingyuan. For the sake of insurance, Yang La, you ask the master book to write a list of articles and post it immediately, so that the people in the county can strengthen their vigilance, do not go out of the house at night, and do not walk disorderly during the day; Hu Yu, you will mobilize all the people in the yamen to inspect in the morning and evening, and ......"

"My lord! My lord! ”

But it was Fang Shuangping who hurriedly ran from the main hall: "Yuxuan Du's family has come to recognize the corpse!" ”

Lin Boqin stood up: "Spread quickly." ”

The Du family is a wealthy family in Qingyuan County and runs the best restaurant, Yuxuan Building. This morning, the Du family reported to the official, saying that the eldest daughter had not returned all night, and it happened that the female corpse was found in Honghu, so they asked her to come to the yamen to take a look. Lin Boqin took the black yarn and walked quickly to the court, where the Du family and his wife were already holding the corpse and crying, shouting: "Daughter! What a miserable death you had! Who is so deprived of conscience...... Woohoo......"

Hu Yu shouted: "Silence! Quiet! Your Excellency has something to ask you! ”

Although the Du family and his wife were heartbroken, they did not dare to make noise in the court, knelt on the ground, raised their hands to wipe their tears.

Lin Boqin sat behind the three-foot Dharma table and asked in a deep voice: "Who is in the hall, report your name." ”

Du Shi said: "My lord, the grass people are the shopkeeper of Yuxuan Building, Du Yuxuan." He pointed to the woman next to him, "This is Uchiko, Qi." ”

Du Yuxuan's gaze fell on the female corpse covered with a white cloth again, and he choked up: "This dead ...... Is...... It's my daughter, Jiaojiao. ”

Lin Boqin said: "What's going on, you tell me in detail." ”

Du Yuxuan wiped his tears and said: "Yesterday, Jiaojiao said that she went out with her friend Lu Xiaoyun to enjoy the flowers, but I didn't expect to go back overnight, I reported to the official this morning, but I didn't expect to meet Lu Xiaoyun again on the way back to Yuxuan Tower." Lu Xiaoyun said that Jiaojiao was with her last night, and she went out to buy rouge gouache at this time, and Neiko and I were relieved. But in the afternoon, Jiaojiao hadn't come back yet, and I was talking to Neiko to go to Lu Xiaoyun to ask, so I was summoned by Fang Xiancheng to come over to identify the body. After speaking, Du Yuxuan couldn't help crying again.

Lin Boqin said to the other party: "Let the people in the official room write a detention summons and take Lu Xiaoyun to the court." ”

Fang Shuangping was ordered to do so.

In just a moment, the two officials came over with Lu Xiaoyun.

Lu Xiaoyun was wearing a brownish green chest-length shirt, and she didn't seem to know what was going on, she struggled: "What are you doing?" What are you doing with me coming to the yamen? Let go of me! ”

Without waiting for Lin Boqin to speak, the Qi clan next to him cried and pounced: "You say! Didn't you kill my Jiaojiao! You're going to give my daughter back—"

Lu Xiaoyun was taken aback, and the hairpin on his head also fell to the ground, making a "ding" sound.

Lin Boqin slapped the shocked wood, and his face sank like water: "Qi clan!" Above the court, Hugh is presumptuous! ”

Although others are young, they are afraid of three points when they put on a straight face.

Qi withdrew his hand and knelt on the ground: "My lord! You must do justice to my daughter! What a wrongful death she had! ”

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoyun came to her senses, she glanced at the corpse lying on the ground, hesitated to step forward, bent down and slowly lifted the white cloth covering the corpse, and when she saw that the dead person was Du Jiaojiao, she suddenly took three steps back in fright, knelt on the ground, and her face was pale: "Jiaojiao...... What's wrong with Jiaojiao? ”

Lin Boqin and Fang Shuangping glanced at each other.

"Lu Xiaoyun, let me ask you, what did you do when you went out with Du Jiaojiao yesterday?"

Lu Xiaoyun knelt on the ground, seemingly immersed in shock: "I, let's go out for ......"

"Outing? Is it to go boating on the Red Lake? ”

"Yes......" Lu Xiaoyun shook his head again, "No, no, I didn't go to Red Lake!" ”

Lin Boqin's sword eyebrows twisted, and he asked sharply: "Is it the end!" ”

Lu Xiaoyun was about to cry, she was just a woman of seventeen or eighteen, how could she have been frightened: "Yes, I went to Red Lake." ”

"Nonsense!" Du Yuxuan pointed at Lu Xiaoyun and roared, "You clearly said yesterday that you would go to enjoy the flowers with Jiaojiao, how could you go to the Red Lake in the suburbs?!" ”

Lu Xiaoyun looked embarrassed: "I ......"

Lin Boqin said coldly: "Lu Xiaoyun, the court is ruthless, don't make it up." ”

Lu Xiaoyun must have heard about those punishment methods, and finally couldn't hold on, gritted his teeth and said: "Jiaojiao did go to the Red Lake yesterday, but ...... She didn't go with me, but with Song Zhihe! ”

Du Yuxuan and Qi reacted for a while before remembering who this Song Zhihe was. He said incredulously, "You lied! My Jiaojiao has long stopped associating with Song Zhihe! ”

"Nope!" Lu Xiaoyun retorted, "That's just the surface! If it weren't for your persecution, how could Jiaojiao have a tryst with Song Zhihe like a thief? ”

"You dare to ruin my daughter's reputation, I, I tear your mouth apart!" Qi Shi was furious when he heard this, and he stood up and was about to fight Lu Xiaoyun, but fortunately he was quickly stopped by the official next to him.

Yang La couldn't help but say, "Qi Clan, you despise the court, do you want to be punished?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Du Yuxuan hurriedly pulled Qi Shi aside: "Kneel down!" Lord Lin will definitely find out the murderer. After speaking, Du Yuxuan looked at Lin Boqin and said word for word, "My lord, that Song Zhihe is a poor scholar who used to live in the inn next door to Yuxuan Building. I kidnapped my daughter somehow last year, and I said that I would come back to get her fame...... Uchiko and I knew that this person was unreliable, so we ordered our daughter not to have any more dealings with this person. I didn't expect it...... I didn't expect that mad guy to kill my daughter! ”

Lin Boqin didn't expect that there were many people involved in this case, he pondered for a moment and asked, "Lu Xiaoyun, where is Song Zhihe now?" ”

Lu Xiaoyun hesitated: "In the inn next to Yuxuan Tower." ”

Lin Boqin glanced at Hu Yu, and Hu Yu immediately went with the other two officials to detain Song Zhihe.

Song Zhihe had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, wearing a green shirt, looking a little weak, when he came to the court, his knees immediately weakened, and he knelt down and cried: "My lord, I have been wronged——"

"Du Jiaojiao's body was found in Honghu Zhouzhu today, and according to Lu Xiaoyun, you and Du Jiaojiao were together yesterday. What happened when 1510 beckoned. Lin Boqin said in a deep voice.

Song Zhihe glanced at Lu Xiaoyun who was kneeling on the ground, and knew that he couldn't hide it, so he honestly explained: "My lord, the grass people...... Caomin and Du's eldest daughter Jiaojiao do have feelings for each other, and they also issued a letter of appointment last year and intended to marry. But because of the poverty of the grass people, Jiaojiao's parents did not agree to this marriage, and asked Jiaojiao not to say goodbye to me. But the ancients said, overlapping tears and brocade words, life is only love and hard to die! I have a deep affection for Jiaojiao, how can I break up because of this? Therefore, he had to hide his parents and communicate secretly. But the grass people swear that I am innocent with Jiaojiao, and there is no reluctance! Lu Xiaoyun and Jiaojiao are handkerchiefs, and they have helped us several times, and this time it is the same. Speaking of this, Song Zhihe couldn't help but redden, "Yesterday we made an appointment to go boating on the Red Lake, and we complained to each other, and when we saw that it was getting late, I personally put her in a carriage and watched her go to the county seat before I left." I never thought that it would be the last goodbye between heaven and man. ”

Lin Boqin was silent.

After a while, he asked, "You sent Du Jiaojiao away, but did anyone see it?" ”

Song Zhihe shook his head with a pale face: "It was very late at that time, and there was no one around. My lord, it's too late for me to feel sorry for Jiaojiao, how can I kill her? ”

Qi cried and reprimanded: "You are talking nonsense! You just can't get my daughter and deliberately kill her! ”

"Your Excellency!" When Song Zhihe heard this, he kowtowed to Lin Boqin, "What the grass people say, every sentence is true, if there is deception, you will not die!" ”

Lin Boqin's expression was calm, and he had no clue at this time.

He glanced at Lu Xiaoyun, who was kneeling in the hall, and asked, "Lu Xiaoyun, since you didn't go to Red Lake with Du Jiaojiao, why did you tell them that Du Jiaojiao was with you last night after seeing the Du couple, and you went to buy rouge gouache at dawn?" ”

Lu Xiaoyun was startled, and then cried: "My lord, I, I thought Jiaojiao and Song Zhihe were together, after all, a lonely man and a widow are very likely to happen...... Out of good intentions, I wanted to hide it for the two of them. ”

When Qi Shi heard this, he jumped up angrily and wanted to tear her mouth again, and hurriedly stopped her left and right.

Song Zhihe was about to cry, and he trembled and said: "My lord, I have always treated Jiaojiao with courtesy, and I have never crossed the thunder pool by half a step!" Please also find out the murderer of Jiaojiao and avenge her! ”

"You said you hired a carriage to send Du Jiaojiao back to the county, but do you remember the appearance of the coachman?"

"This ...... The grass people were randomly looking for carriages in Niuzikou, where cars came and went, and the coachmen were dressed in roughly the same way, so I really can't remember it. ”

Lin Boqin actually didn't think that Song Zhihe was the one who killed Du Jiaojiao, or that the murderer was a flower thief who had committed a murder in Fengshui County.

After all, the deaths of the victims in these two cases are very similar.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Boqin said: "Song Zhihe, the last person Du Jiaojiao saw before her death was you, and you can't provide evidence to prove that you sent Du Jiaojiao away." According to Dayuan's law, I must take you into custody and record your confession, and I can't clear your suspicion until the real culprit is identified. Do you have any objections to this? ”

Song Zhihe kowtowed upright, and said in a trembling voice: "The grass people have no objections, but I ask the adults to hang the mirror high, and they will find out the murderer of Jiaojiao and punish him severely!" ”
