"Ahh I said, Little Stone, what's wrong with you? These blood marks on the face, tsk! Did you tease your she-cat again last night? Hahahaha! ”

Early in the morning, Mao Guangjian looked at Shi Yuning's face with a few shallow blood marks, and couldn't straighten his waist with a smile, and Nie Xiaohu and the others also laughed more than once.

"Alas! Don't mention it! Shi Yuning shook his head, looking frustrated.

"What's wrong? Tell us about it! ", Nie Xiaohu said with a smile.

"That's the case, I think you've been working on cases with Tiger Boss for a few years, and you've learned a little bit of skill more or less."

"Well, that's good! Not bad! Nie Xiaohu smiled and nodded.

"Just yesterday evening, as soon as I got home, I just entered the living room, and I found that there were several muddy footprints on the floor of the living room, and I could see at a glance that it was a man's footprints, so I went to the bedroom and the side room to look, and found mud footprints on the floor of the side room, and there were traces of people lying on the bed!

I looked carefully on the bed and found not a single hair. I searched at home again, and found that my bottle of daughter red, which had been treasured for many years, had been drunk by half a catty!

Therefore, I concluded that there must have been a man in the house, who must have been a bald man, and that he had a great relationship with my mother-in-law! Because my bottle of daughter red is very well hidden, no one can find it except me and my wife, can she take out all the wine for the man to drink, can the relationship be shallow? ”

"Hmmm! The analysis makes sense! Nie Xiaohu nodded with a smile.

"And then?" , Cao Xiaohui asked curiously.

"Later," Shi Yuning said with a dejected expression, "just when I asked my wife who the adulterer was, my father-in-law came out of the latrine in the courtyard......"

"Hahahaha!" , Mao Guangjian and the others burst into laughter again.

"Report ~~~!"

At this moment, a catcher ran into the hall, and Mao Guangjian and the others immediately stopped laughing, and their faces returned to a serious expression.

"What's the matter?" , Nie Xiaohu asked, the nerves around his body were tight.

"Yongtai District Pang Rushui came to report that a patient in his house was killed in the room last night!"

"Where's the person?"

"It's right outside!"

"Bring it in!"

"Little old man has seen adults!" As soon as a long-haired old man entered the hall, he bowed to Nie Xiaohu and said.

"What's your name?" , Nie Xiaohu sat on the top and asked with a serious face.

"The villain's name is Pang Rushui, he lives in Yongtai District, and he is a doctor who sees a doctor."

"What happened last night?"

"Lord Hui, that's right, I have a patient named Zhou Zhiming, who broke his hands and feet because he was going up the mountain to collect firewood, so he lived in my home so that I could treat him.

When I went to change his dressing this morning, I found that he had died in bed, and he was suffocated by someone covering his mouth and nose. ”

"Lead the way!" , Nie Xiaohu said as he walked out.

Two quarters of an hour later, under the guidance of Pang Rushui, Nie Xiaohu and the others hurried to the gate of his courtyard.

This is a small courtyard, located in a relatively remote place, there are only a few houses scattered nearby, a high fence wall for one person, a courtyard gate made of wooden planks, two main houses in the courtyard, and two side houses on the east and west sides.

There was a stove in the southeast corner of the courtyard, and at this moment the fire was rising in the stove, and a medicine jar was sitting on it, and a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old was squatting beside the stove, and the yard was filled with a strong smell of medicine.

Seeing Nie Xiaohu, Pang Rushui and others coming in, the young man quickly got up, called out to the master in a low voice, and bowed to the side.

"Where's the person?" , Nie Xiaohu asked as soon as he entered the door.

"My lord, please come with me", Pang Rushui finished speaking and walked to the side room on the west side and south.

There was a lock on the door, Pang Rushui took out the key and opened the door, and then retreated to the side.

Nie Xiaohu frowned, stared at Pang Rushui and asked, "Why is the door locked?" ”

"As soon as I found out that someone was dead, I immediately locked the door for fear of alarming the others," Pang Rushui hurriedly explained.

"Hmm", Nie Xiaohu nodded slightly and stepped into the room.

The furnishings in the room were extremely simple, a wooden bed, a bedside table, a cabinet against the wall, and other than that, the room was empty.

At this time, a middle-aged man was lying on the bed, his arms and legs were clamped by wooden boards, firmly tied with strips of cloth, his body was covered with a thin quilt, his eyes were round, his face was purple, and his body was cold, and he had been dead for a long time.

The corpse was quickly handed over, and the deceased had died of suffocation, and the time of death was the ugly hour last night.

Nie Xiaohu found the deceased's tooth marks on the inside of the quilt on the deceased's body, and there were tearing holes, and found several silk threads between the deceased's teeth, which were obviously suffocated by someone covering his mouth and nose with the quilt on his body.

"Let's talk about what happened, from yesterday evening," Nie Xiaohu said as he stared at Pang Rushui.

"Yes, sir!"

Pang Rushui thought about it a little and said: "The deceased's name is Zhou Zhiming, who was sent half a month ago, and fell down because he was going up the mountain to collect firewood, and broke his limbs, so he lived with me so that I could treat him.

Because he is strong, in the prime of life, and the injury is also recovering well, yesterday evening, I asked Wang Yeheng to decoct him a pair of blood and stasis medicine, after feeding him, he fell asleep, this morning I prepared the healing medicine, planning to change it, but who knew that as soon as I entered the door, I found that he had died in bed.

I took a general look, and it looked like someone had suffocated me and nose covered, and I felt that something was important, so I locked the door and hurried to report to the police. ”

"Did you hear anything last night?"

"No", Pang Rushui shook his head and said, "The old man has always slept more deeply, and because of his advanced age, he slept relatively deadly, and I really didn't hear any movement last night." ”

"Is there anyone else in the deceased's house?"

"He also has a wife and a five-year-old daughter at home, and he is also a poor family."

Pang Rushui sighed and said: "The old man treats the poor, he has never sought profit, as long as the principal, Zhou Zhiming is an honest man, everyone around here knows him, he is honest, he has never heard of a dispute with anyone, I really can't think of who will harm him!" ”

Nie Xiaohu frowned slightly and thought for a while, and then asked, "Who else do you have here?" ”

"In addition to the old man and the medicine boy Wang Yeheng, there are two more patients, both of whom are elderly people, and they live in two side rooms in the east."

Pang Rushui pointed to the two side rooms on the east side and said.
