Yang Jing walked back and forth in the room a few times, carefully examining the contents on the floor before starting to inspect the cabinets.

The contents of the cabinet were all turned upside down, as if they had been looted by thieves, and at the bottom of a cabinet, Yang Jing found a stack of picture albums, and when he flipped through them, he saw some vivid pictures of the Spring Palace.

These spring palace pictures are the use of fine brush techniques, realistic images, delicate, the key parts are even more unsightly, in the pursuit of realism at the same time, but also adhering to the characteristics of Chinese painting, focusing on the charm and artistic conception, so that people can not help but feel hot and dry.

For example, the murderer in this case hit the female victim's head with a blunt object or a sharp cone in the morning, the sharp cone actually represents his male ability, and the sharp cone hits the woman's head one by one, which will make him feel that his man's ability is vented on the woman's body, so as to achieve spiritual satisfaction.

Since you can't get pleasure from normal channels, murderers usually have some sexual fetishes, and collecting the Spring Palace Picture is actually one of the ways, is this Du Kefeng really a murderer?

Yang Jing put the spring palace map back in its place and continued to rummage through the cabinet, but this time he turned out a lot of gold, silver and jewelry.

Du Kefeng has changed from a small supervisor to a general judge of Jiangling Mansion, and Yang Jing does not know how many dark transactions of officialdom there are, but there must be money to help him, so it is not surprising to find these belongings in Du Kefeng's room.

Yang Jing checked several cabinets one after another, all of them were property, at this time, there was no one else in the room except Song Ci, even Huang Zhengmin was waiting at the end of the screen with Lao Langzhong, Yang Jing didn't need to scruple too much.

After Song Ci felt the magic of fingerprint comparison, he once asked Song Fengya about Yang Jing's case-solving process, and also knew that Yang Jing had psychologically profiled the murderer, for Song Ci, this inference was full of subjective assumptions, but it was more clever than other officials, because no one studied psychology at that time, so Song Ci was not very acceptable to Yang Jing's so-called profile.

But watching Yang Jing turn out the spring palace pictures and other things, Song Ci was still a little surprised, because these spring palace pictures seemed to confirm Yang Jing's inference about the murderer, but until Yang Jing checked all the cabinets, there was nothing else to find except these spring palace pictures, which was inevitably a little frustrating.

Song Ci was an outlier among the officials of the Song Dynasty, and although he sometimes relied on subjective inference, he made forensic examination a systematic doctrine, and wrote books and theories, emphasizing evidence in everything, both in thought and action, and leading the way.

It's not that Du Kefeng is not suspicious, but in the absence of sufficient evidence to support it, Song Ci thinks that it is not appropriate to investigate a general verdict, but the social harm of this case is too great, so he agreed to bring Yang Jing over to investigate.

But these spring palace pictures do not prove anything, although the culture of the Song Dynasty was extremely prosperous, but at this time the science has been flourishing, and the literati are bound by moral models, but things like the spring palace pictures, many people will still secretly treasure them.

Because women in ancient times kept women's ways, they were obedient, and they rarely took the initiative in the affairs of men and women, which is why men like to look for flowers and ask willows, because fireworks women will take the initiative to tease and understand the love between men and women, and when they can't find flowers and ask willows, appreciate the spring palace map, which should be the best way to satisfy men's fantasies about that matter, so it is not surprising.

Yang Jing saw that Song Ci was silent, and he also knew that the old detective was a little disappointed, but he didn't intend to give up.

Because there is one place he has not searched, and that is Du Kefeng's bed!

In ancient times, the bed is often called the bed with the couch, which is both a bedding and a sitting tool, Yang Jing has always thought that Du Kefeng's bed is a stepping bed, in fact, the pulling step bed did not begin to appear until the late Ming Dynasty, although the bed of the Song people is very close to the pulling bed, but in fact, it should be called a bifer bed or a frame bed.

The bed also had three or four legs, and the bed was enclosed by an elaborate balustrade, with four or six wooden pillars erected to support the wooden roof above, and there was a terrace-like treadbed next to the bed for foot padding.

There is a lot of space in the shelf bed, and there is also a lot of storage space at the bottom of the bed, so Yang Jing lay on the ground, raised the candle and looked at it, and sure enough, he found a few boxes under the bed!

Song Ci was also overjoyed when he saw Yang Jing dragging out one of the boxes, and hurriedly came over.

These boxes have locks on them, but the outermost box is not locked, Xu Du Kefeng has opened it recently, and forgot to lock it because his withdrawal reaction made his brain confused.

Yang Jing put the light next to him and easily opened the box, but was stunned by the contents of the box!

Under the light of the fire, the box was full of women's belongings, including Champa embroidered shoes, headdresses, profane clothes, etc., and even some strips of cloth stained with black and red blood!

"It's... This is evidence!" Song Ci couldn't help but exclaim, if according to Yang Jing's psychological profile, the murderer is a psychologically distorted pervert, and after the killing, he will leave the victim's personal belongings as trophies or souvenirs, so as to take them out in the future and relive the picture of the murder to meet the distorted needs of his heart, then these things are likely to be left behind after Du Kefeng's murder!

Yang Jing looked at Song Ci and nodded, but shook his head again: "These are indeed evidence, but they can only prove that Du Kefeng had contact with these women and left their belongings, but it can't prove that these women were killed by Du Kefeng..."

Song Ci thought about it and nodded, it seems that Yang Jing is more meticulous than he imagined, Du Kefeng is looking for flowers and asking willows, and it is already an open secret that people often send some fireworks to the door to serve women, and it is understandable to leave some items, if he is a murderer, he will definitely be more secretive.

But it is undeniable that the appearance of these things has greatly increased Du Kefeng's suspicion, and in terms of current clues, Du Kefeng should be the closest candidate to the murderer!

Because he took hallucinogenic opium, it may cause him to go insane, and he has too close ties with those victims, and according to Wang Buliu's testimony, if he were replaced by other officials, Du Kefeng would have been branded as a murderer!

But the appearance of these items made Yang Jing more sure that Du Kefeng should not be a murderer!

Because the murderer has a long period of growth, from the inner demon to the sprout, to grow into a homicidal maniac, whether it is in the modus operandi or the way, it reflects this growth, for serial killers, killing people is something that cannot be shared, and can only be tasted slowly, but every time Du Kefeng recruits these women, he will complete it through his subordinates or his entourage, which obviously does not meet the characteristics of profile.

Moreover, Yang Jing is not sure that these items belong to the victims, perhaps these items were only given to Du Kefeng by the kiln sisters as a souvenir, and if you want to determine the owner of the items, you must further verify.

The problem now is that these are Du Kefeng's personal belongings, and Yang Jing also searched them without consent, and if you want to take these items out, you must get Du Kefeng's consent!

However, Du Kefeng is in a semi-comatose state at the moment, and his life has not been saved, but Yang Jing wants to investigate him as a murder suspect.

Yang Jing was embarrassed in his heart, but he heard Song Ci remind in a low voice: "Du Tong's sudden upheaval does not rule out the possibility of malicious poisoning by others, and Governor Huang, as the local governor, should be verified clearly..."

Although Du Kefeng had taken an overdose of opium, the person who provided the opium was still unfounded, so if he used this as an excuse, he would just bring all these things back!" Yang Jing thought in his heart, and couldn't help but nod and smile at Song Ci, sure enough, Jiang was still old and spicy!

The search is over, but for Yang Jingneng , there is still one important thing that has not been found, that is, opium!

Du Kefeng took a large dose of raw opium to cause the danger he is now, so where is the rest of the opium?

"Du Kefeng has been addicted for a long time, and he has been off the drug for so long, after getting it again, he will definitely show weakness and treasures, I am afraid that the treasure is generally hidden on his body!" Yang Jing thought so, so he groped around Du Kefeng's body, and sure enough, he found a heavy paper bag in his arms, and when he opened it, there was a large piece of black opium paste, which was pressed into the shape of a tofu block, and a piece was missing from the corner, and there were still Du Kefeng's tooth marks on it!

"This is the opium you are talking about?" Song Ci also came over curiously, wanting to take it over to take a look, but Yang Jing waved his hand to stop him.

"Ge Lao, there are fingerprints left on this paper package, as long as it is compared, you can know who sent it!"

When Song Ci heard this, he couldn't help admiring Yang Jing's carefulness and caution, he just leaned over and sniffed the smell of opium, looked at it for a while, and let Yang Jing wrap it in a handkerchief and put it away carefully.

It also took a lot of time to search the room, and the two of them were carefully looking at the contents of the box, and the people had prepared all kinds of medicinal soups, and Yang Jing hurriedly pushed the box back under the bed.

Huang Zhengmin, the eldest lady and the old man walked into the room again, and Yang Jing treated Du Kefeng according to the original plan.

A few old men also put away that little bit of caution, after all, they also participated in the treatment, if Du Kefeng couldn't be saved, they couldn't run, Yang Jing was Song Ci's son and nephew, with Song Ci's support, they didn't have such a big backstage, so they became more and more cautious, and they were all busy according to Yang Jing's instructions.

Because of the need for catharsis and the like, the scene was really not very elegant, Yang Jing just left a few people to listen, and the other personnel were all rushed out, Huang Zhengmin also stayed outside, Song Ci was old after all, so he arranged to rest in the next room, and Song Fengya and Xu Fengwu waited for him.

The smell in the room was extremely unpleasant, but Yang Jing had long been used to it, and several old men saw that Yang Jing was doing dirty work but his face did not change, and he couldn't help but praise Yang Jing.

And after treatment, Du Kefeng's condition finally stabilized, and when the fish belly appeared white in the east, Du Kefeng was finally pulled back from the ghost gate by Yang Jing!

"The pulse has been stabilized, prescribe some warm decoction for a few days, there should be no big problem..."After the old man led by the old man took the pulse, he breathed a sigh of relief, and several other Lang Zhong were also excited, this is not only to save Du Kefeng's life, but also to save their lives!

The old man led by the old man stood up and bowed to Yang Jing, feeling guilty for the previous disdain and ridicule, Yang Jing returned the salute humbly, and the other old men also bowed and apologized, Yang Jing didn't even dare to say that he didn't dare to put on the posture of a junior, and finally made these old men admire.
