Chapter 85: The Case
Why did the murder happen? Bao Qing is more depressed, if he goes out now, he will disrupt his original plan, if he doesn't go out, it doesn't seem to be good, the key is that this is the arrangement of these two women, it is really troublesome.
In the end, Bao Qing had no choice, so he asked Zhanzhao to get the two to the camp, this Zhuang Lei saw it, but invited Bao Qing to live in the yamen, but Bao Qing did not agree.
"What the hell is a murder?" Bao Qing asked as he went with Zhuang Lei.
"Three people died in one house!" Zhuang Lei said.
"Is the crime scene well protected? Didn't you push the officials to arrest quickly? Do you have to let it go?" Bao Qing was a little displeased, this murder case should be handled by the local state government yamen himself, why do you have to let yourself be a messenger to handle it, is it because he is full and has nothing to do?
"Lord Bao, the governor of Bazhou has not yet taken office, and the former governor was killed when the Liao people knocked on the side." Zhuang Lei replied.
"Zhuang Zhizhou, you said that if the Liao people attack now, will you run or hold on?" Bao Qing asked.
"This, it depends on the situation, the chief manager has the final say."
Bao Qing took Jin Wandao to the scene of the crime, but found that this Hongba was still there.
"I said Zhuang Zhizhou, this big case has to alarm Lord Qincha. If this is the Liao, I don't know how many people will die. Hong Ba saw Zhuang Lei coming with Bao Qing, glanced at it and said.
"Deputy General Hong has managed this military affairs in an orderly manner, and I, the state official in charge of government affairs, can't hold back. No, there is a lack of an official in the government, so I immediately thought of Master Bao. Zhuang Lei said.
"Lord Zhuang, what you said is not right, are you panicking when we are Qin Chabao Lord? Ran to your government to be a pusher? ”
"Okay, now that you're here, let's take a look! Who were the deceased? Bao Qing felt impatient.
"The deceased is that the three of them are all brothers, and they came to Bazhou together last year to do some business."
Bao Qing looked at the three corpses one by one, all of them were stabbed in the back, and they should have been slashed from behind suddenly. Bao Qing took a look at the knife marks, and the knife marks of the three corpses were different, which should have been caused by different knives. Bao Qing gently flicked the knife marks with his hands, and found that the cut skin and flesh were rolling, which should be that the knife was not sharp enough. At the same time, the depth of the wounds is quite deep, and the strength of this murderer is quite large.
Bao Qing looked at the corpses, paused and asked, "These three corpses were found together?" ”
"Yes, Uncle Zhang next door found it."
"In this way, there was more than one murderer at that time, and the three deceased were stabbed with different scars and different depths. It shouldn't be the same person. Moreover, the wounds of the deceased have the phenomenon of skin and flesh rolling, and the knife held should be a blunt knife, not very sharp, and the edge of the knife is curled, such a knife should be a murder weapon that kills countless people. I don't think a person in the rivers and lakes would generally use such a knife. After Bao Qing finished speaking, he looked at Jin Wandao.
Jin Wandao understood and said: "The people in the rivers and lakes should like to use sharp knives, and the people in the rivers and lakes attach great importance to their weapons. Therefore, such a clumsy weapon is generally not used. And when Jianghu people commit crimes, their favorite part to attack should be the throat. ”
"Judging from the traces at the scene, the three deceased did not engage in a fierce fight before they died, and they were obviously attacked from behind and died. As a person in the rivers and lakes, who is not discovered and wants to end people's lives with a knife, the best assassination method is to seal the throat with a knife. Bao Qing said.
"What do you mean? Was this murder committed by ordinary people? Murder in general? Zhuang Lei obviously didn't believe it.
"I suppose, maybe it's for their brother's money!" Hong Ba said, "In that case, let's go back, and leave it to the officials to deal with it." ”
Bao Qing shook his head and said, "Murder, then there must be a motive for killing." Murder is nothing more than for money, or revenge. For money, no traces of turning were found at the scene, indicating that the murderer left directly after killing several people. So it is impossible for money. ”
Everyone nodded when they heard this, this truth is very simple, everyone knows it.
"For **, apparently not! Vendetta? Do you think it looks like it? Once the hatred reaches the point where you want to kill, will you see if you will slash it? Bao Qing asked.
"If you have a grudge, I can't wait to cut a few more knives!" Jin Wandao said.
"This, then why is this murder?" Zhuang Lei was a little surprised.
Bao Qing spit out two words: "Maybe it's a task!" ”
"It's possible to buy a murderer!" Hong Ba said.
"Buying a murderer? If you were an employer, would you hire such a killer? Such an inferior weapon, such an assassination method? Generally speaking, most of the killers are people in the rivers and lakes. Bao Qing said.
"What do you mean by the mission? What task? Zhuang Lei asked.
Bao Qing thought for a while and asked: "Weapons are generally owned by three types of people!" One is the Jianghu people, who carry weapons to defend themselves. The second is the arrest of the government and the protection of the hospital. The third is the soldier. Judging from the knife marks just now, the murder weapon should be powerful in slashing, and because it is used too much, the weapon has a curl and is not very sharp. Let's see, what kind of talent meets this requirement? ”
"Soldiers?" Everyone was shocked and replied.
"Yes, soldiers, and veterans who have killed a lot. Only in this way can you cut with such force, and you can hack people to death with one sword, and you don't need to cut a second one. Only veterans who often go to the battlefield will use the weapons they use, and the blades of the soldiers' weapons should not be too sharp, otherwise they will be easily damaged in actual combat. I don't know my analysis, but Deputy Director Hong agrees? Bao Qing looked at Hong Ba.
Hong Ba was a little uncomfortable, and hurriedly replied: "This is indeed the case, but my lord, don't get me wrong, the soldiers I brought are not camps in the city defense, it is impossible to leave without permission, and now the Liao people are attacking at any time, how can they have the time to do this." ”
Bao Qing suddenly thought that this soldier killed these three brothers so unexpectedly, but he was afraid that it was really a task. And what instructed?
"Who discovered the murder scene first?" Bao Qing asked
"Zhang Laohan next door, by the way, people are also here. Zhang Laohan went to see Master Qinchabao. Zhuang Lei said.
The old man Zhang that Zhuang Lei said, Bao Qing had already noticed it. It was a plainly dressed, honest old man, standing alone beside the servant, a little conspicuous. The old man walked over, looking a little restrained, and when he saw Bao Qing, he wanted to kneel.
"Come, old man, tell me when you found out about the murder." Bao Qing asked.
"My lord, the old man heard a movement in this house last night, and later, when the old man couldn't sleep, he quietly got up and looked. Taking advantage of the moonlight, I happened to see three or four strong men walking out of this house. The old man said, his legs trembling slightly.
"What are you afraid of? Lord Chincha won't eat you again, look at you and scare you. Zhuang Lei said.
"It's okay! Okay, let me go back and think about this case! Bao Qing said.
"Huh? My lord, this is leaving? Zhuang Lei didn't expect Bao Qing to ask like this, and it was over, muttering inappropriately in his heart. It seems that he knows this Bao Qing very well, and he should break the casserole to ask to the end, and he has to bring some people back for trial, why don't you just ignore it and go back in a hurry?
"Why don't you leave? I'm not a god, go back and drink some wine, maybe I can solve the case! Bao Qing was displeased.
Zhuang Lei hurriedly said, "My lord, I didn't mean that. If you want to drink alcohol, there are many mansions! Why don't you hold a banquet for adults at the government office at noon? ”
"You're boring! I'll go back to the camp, then Xiaoyu is still waiting for me! Mr. Hong, let's go! Bao Qing said.
Seeing this, Hong Ba hurriedly smiled and said, "Haha, that Xiaoyu gave the adults a quick start!" In so many days, I haven't seen Xiaoyu's true face, Lord Bao is really amazing, admire and admire! ”
……
"Jin Wandao, this Zhuang Lei did everything possible to let me come out to solve the case, I'm afraid the purpose is more than that. You have some good hands and keep an eye on him. Bao Qing commanded.
"Your Excellency suspects that he has something to do with the Plum Blossom Gang?" Jin Wandao is responsible for protecting Bao Qing's safety, and the one he is most worried about is the Plum Blossom Gang.
"No, I want to see who instructed this Zhuang Lei, if I am not bad, Zhuang Lei should be the person of Lu Yijian, the old fox. Therefore, you'd better find someone to squat for me at the intersection of the pipeline, and Zhuang Lei should contact the capital soon. Lu Yijian, this old thing, it is estimated that he came up with the idea of letting us be cannon fodder this time. Otherwise, the official family can't think of it. Bao Qing scolded.
"Oh, what about Hongba?"
"Hong Ba doesn't care about him for the time being, after all, he is the deputy governor, and he has to rely on him to resist the Liao, and it is not easy to monitor. Now who we are the first to jump out, we will stare at whomever we want. ”
"Okay, my lord, you said this case!"
"Why do you have an idea about this case?"
"There is an idea, although this army is guarding the frontier, most of them are outlaws, they are murderous, they can kill people for no reason, there is no good thing!" Jin Wandao gritted his teeth when he talked about the border army.
"Did they kill your gossip hall?"
Jin Wandao nodded slightly, showing a painful expression, and said: "I hate these border troops so much, they are sometimes more poisonous than the Liao people!" ”
Bao Qing patted Jin Wandao on the shoulder and said, "Actually, these soldiers are all acting according to orders, and killing people for them means obeying orders." If the officer who leads the army is good, then the soldier is good! If the officer is a bastard, his soldiers must be bastards too. ”
When Jin Wandao heard this, he suddenly knelt down. Bao Qing was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly pulled him up and said, "What is this for?" There's your men behind here! ”
Jin Wandao choked and just wanted to speak, but Bao Qing shook his hand.
"I know what you think! You want me to check for you, what happened when the Bagua Hall was surrounded and suppressed! You have been following me, without complaints, and you will not give up on life and death, and I will give you an explanation for this matter. Actually, you don't have to beg me, because I'm not a hard-hearted person. I'm not like that Bao Hong, he knows something inside, but he refuses to tell it. Bao Qing was angry when he thought of Bao Hong, his daughters had become his own women, and he actually kept some secrets for Lu Yijian.
"Bao Zhixian may have a hard time, he has been living a miserable life! I don't blame him! Jin Wandao said.
But I blame him, this old stubborn! The person who I couldn't see clearly was actually him. Bao Qing scolded secretly.
