Chapter 45: Evil
Avon Pavilion, a real brothel, is also the leader of its peers, not because of how luxurious it is, but more because it is the backstage of the government.
The women in the Avon Pavilion are all young and innocent ladies.
If a person in charge commits a major crime, his family members will either be beheaded together with the prisoner or sent to the frontier.
But young girls who are still beautiful will be sent to this brothel to work as official prostitutes, and many rich men or officials will be entertained, but the only condition is that they never sleep.
Because of the retention of a virgin body, you can wait for the day in the future to sell for a large price.
Their men bought official prostitutes, could be servants, could be concubines, and of course, lucky people who directly became wives also abounded.
The scale of Avon Pavilion is not small, and the geographical location is also the most luxurious commercial street in the north city.
The upper and lower three floors, carved beams and painted buildings, red walls and green tiles.
As soon as you enter the lobby, the structure of the second and third floors is a hollow ring design, surrounded by an iron fence.
There are also multiple rooms on each floor, and all guests who come here can enjoy a separate room, standing in the lobby on the first floor, you can hear the sound of laughter and laughter coming from each room.
Not only that, but there are also lingering piano sounds and reverberating songs, resounding throughout the Avon Pavilion.
Each floor has a hidden passage that extends inward, and it is followed by a passage that is flanked by rooms where many of the women live.
The only difference from the room in the lobby is that it is unusually quiet at this time, so quiet that people mistakenly think that they are in a no-man's land, and they can clearly feel their hearts beating.
Not only that, but the sign of 'internal construction, temporary closure' has already been hung outside the gate of Avon Court.
Liu Ling returned to the room in the passage on the third floor, changed into a long dress with juan yarn and gold silk embroidery that she often wore in Avon Pavilion, wore a royal blue dotted emerald pearl hairpin, a peacock silver step, and a pair of ruby earrings on her ears.
With outstanding demeanor, red lips and bright teeth, Liu Ling is a beautiful embryo born with a hundred charms.
At this time, Liu Ling's demeanor was quiet, completely losing his flea-like frizz, Liu Ling followed the old bustard and the two thugs, and walked to the second floor above the front lobby, a two-room house.
As soon as Liu Ling stepped into the door, she saw a huge plush carpet, lying on her stomach and becoming familiar with Wang Yu.
And on the couch in the innermost part of the room, there was another Tan Xiang she was familiar with.
Liu Ling was in a room full of incomparably desolate things, looking at her good sister who had lost her life characteristics, and her whole expression was very depressed.
Liu Ling turned around and asked the old bustard: "What about the four officials, why aren't they here?" ”
"They couldn't see the blood here, so they asked to stay in another room, and Mom, I was worried that they would collude with each other, so I simply let them have a room by themselves.
Oh, there were four men who didn't leave last night because they were drunk, and they were all fools......
It's not all right, it should be twelve people, and each of the four gentlemen brought an entourage with them. One is Sha Yu, the son of the restaurant owner, the other is Gu Xingchen, the second son of the owner of the silk village, one is Niu Youqian, the son of the owner of the money village, and the other is Qiu Xiting, the son of our Beicheng County Cheng.
Mom, I've heard you say before that anyone at the scene of the murder can be the murderer, so I didn't dare to let them go. ”
What Liu Ling said when she was chatting with the sisters of Avon Pavilion before was actually heard by the old bustard and remembered in her mind, it was really not easy, no wonder she could stand in this position of the old bustard for so many years.
……
Liu Ling began the autopsy, leaving the thugs to guard on both sides of the closed gate.
The old bustard prepared a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and wrote down all the findings of Liu Ling's autopsy at any time.
Leaning over, Wang Yu, lying on the yellow peony carpet, was eighteen years old, three months older than Liu Ling.
She was dressed in a dark silk ruffled skirt, with her palms open, her arms and legs in a climbing position, her right cheek against the carpet, her lips slightly closed, and her eyes wide open.
And the bones at the back of Wang Yu's head, shattered by the blow, have shown a blurred state of flesh and blood, and a piece of dark red blood around his body has coagulated, which makes people feel shocked.
Tan Xiang, who was wearing a full-breasted Ruijin skirt, was less than seventeen years old, and the time of her death was almost the same as Wang Yu's.
Tan Xiang was lying on the carved hollow couch upright, her lower body pants had been taken off and discarded on the top of her head, her legs drooping, and she landed barefoot.
Her face was pale, her hair was disheveled, her eyes were wide open, her eyeballs were prominent, blood was flowing from her mouth and nostrils, and her entire face was black and purple.
Tan Xiang's lower body, both sides of her thighs, and even her skirt were stained with a large number of men's Yuanyang.
This kind of death is the same as the Lu Yuan killed by Qin Xuan, first attempted rape, and in anger, he covered his mouth and nose with other objects, causing him to suffocate to death, and finally continued to rape in a frenzy.
……
After Liu Ling finished the autopsy, she stood in one place, scanning the room that had once familiarized her.
The red curtains hung high on both sides, there is a light red lacquer table in the corner, on which is placed a gilded beast pattern copper furnace, and the original smoky incense in it is now like the dead Tan Xiang and Wang Yu, which have long lost all their life.
In the middle of the room are two long tables that merge together, with cups and plates on them.
The old bustard beside Liu Ling looked at Liu Ling's gloomy face and asked, "Liu Ling, do you see why the two of them died?" ”
Liu Ling pursed her lips: "Tan Xiang was suffocated to death by someone who covered her mouth and nose with the underwear placed on top of her head, and then the murderer bullied her heartbrokenly.
And Wang Yu, I think she should have seen the scene of Tan Xiang's tragic death, and tried to run out to call someone, but was directly hit in the back of the head by the murderer.
And the wound on the back of Wang Yu's head, which can be smashed into such a tragic situation, is obviously not a sharp weapon like a sword, but a blunt instrument without a blade and a tip.
Being able to smash the back of Wang Yu's head like this, even with a blunt weapon, requires a lot of arm strength, which shows that this murderer has a martial arts foundation.
However, in the entire room, although there are many objects that can be called blunt objects, there is no blood left on them.
If the murder weapon was indeed an object in the room, the murderer would not have discarded it after the crime, because the murderer could kill so blatantly, and the room was so messy, he didn't have to do anything more to hide the murder weapon again.
Also, if the blunt weapon is not any of the items here, but an object carried by the murderer, after the case is completed, there should be two possibilities: first, the murder weapon is still on the murderer's body; Second, the murderer was afraid of being suspected, so he threw it away or hid it......
Oh, Mom had better send someone to take a closer look at our entire Avon Pavilion. ”
