Chapter 143: A Visit to Yicheng
The first visit to Yicheng was empty, and the three of them did not give up, and came again after an appointment. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
This time I was lucky, Yicheng was drinking tea at home.
Seeing Li Rong and the three of them coming to the door, Yi Cheng asked, "I heard that Uchiko said that you came to look for me, is there something wrong?"
Li Rong and the three of them glanced at each other and said, "My lord, the three of us do have something to do with you, but I don't know whether to talk about it or not." ”
Yi Cheng smiled: "Where did you learn this set, I don't know if you should talk about it or not? You have all come twice, don't you want you to say okay? ”
Li Rong nodded and said, "Lord Yicheng is quick to talk, then we won't hide it, here's the thing, we suspect that the deceased did not die of illness, but was killed." ”
How to say it, how to say it, Li Rong thought about it for a long time, but after thinking about it carefully, it was not as effective as it was with the discernment.
Officials don't like others to play some twists and turns in front of them, and showing up may make others unhappy, but there are also two benefits.
First, the other party already knows what you want to say, and if you say it directly, he will see your sincerity, and at the same time have a sense of superiority that everything is under control;
Second, what you say is not in the interests of the other party and makes him unhappy, but your straightforward behavior will make him feel at ease, and he will think that you are a stunned young man, admit death, and be easy to deal with, so as to relax his guard against you.
Li Rong saw that after he said this, Yi Cheng's brows were relaxed, and his face was also light.
Suddenly, he knew that Yi Cheng should have known what they were going to say for a long time, and he had already developed a sense of superiority.
Yi Cheng took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and said unhurriedly: "I have also heard a little about you, I heard that you have inquired about my post station inside and outside the past few days, for this matter?"
When the tea was empty, someone was going to fill it, and the little woman who the three of them had seen yesterday trotted over, picked up the teapot, and carefully filled the cups of the crowd, and almost spilled it.
Yi Cheng frowned, and said in a low voice: "In front of outsiders, what are you doing when you come out from a woman's house?"
The little woman glanced at Yicheng in a panic, quickly put down the teapot, and left everyone's sight in a panic.
Yi Cheng smiled and said, "Neiko is clumsy with hands and feet, so the three of them can see the joke." ”
Li Rong and the three shook their heads one after another, indicating that they didn't care.
"My lord, to tell you honestly, we sneaked into the autopsy room and found that the deceased had a big hole in his chest, which is certainly not what would happen to the dead of illness. Chi Jiankou said quickly.
Yi Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly, raised his voice a few points, and said, "Oh? You also sneaked into the autopsy room?"
Li Rong knew that it was going to be bad as soon as he heard it, there are rules everywhere, especially in a heavy place like the coroner's room, no one is allowed to enter without a warrant, although Li Rong and the three of them are martial artists who went to the state capital to participate in the assessment, and they have certain privileges, but they are not among them when they sneak into the coroner's room, let alone meddle in local cases!
"My lord, we ......"
Li Rong was about to open his mouth to explain and round Chi Jian's words back, but Yi Cheng waved his hand suddenly and said: "No need to explain, I already know about this matter, and I don't plan to embarrass you, but you can't do it again, besides, you must not tell others about everything." ”
"Yes, sir. Li Rong and Li Wushuang breathed a sigh of relief, feeling like they had escaped death.
Chi Jian didn't understand where he had said the wrong thing, but looking at Li Rong and Li Wushuang's expressions, it seemed that it was quite serious, and he suddenly shut up and stopped talking.
"Actually, you are right, the deceased did not die of illness, he killed him, and based on the autopsy, we suspect that the murderer was most likely a ripper. Yi Cheng said.
"The ripper likes to dig out the heart and take the bones after killing, the heart of the deceased is indeed missing, and the ribs are also taken away, very cruel, it is rumored that the ripper is strong in martial arts, and the elite of the Terracotta Division has not been able to leave him behind, my small post station is not an opponent, I can only report to the state capital, please send someone to check. ”
After listening to this paragraph, Li Rong and the others knew that Yi Cheng did not know about it, but that he felt that the murderer was too famous and that the post station might not be able to deal with such a murderer, so he tried to find a way to take everyone away and wait for the support of the state capital.
It's right to think about it, if Yi Cheng told Lao Su that his son was killed by the ripper, Lao Su couldn't know the ripper, and he would definitely make trouble in the post station, asking the post station to catch the murderer and give his son justice.
In this case, the post will take a huge risk, and Lao Suo and his family may also lose their lives as a result.
This sentence alone is enough to illustrate Yicheng's foresight.
"Your Excellency understands righteousness. Li Rong praised him, and suddenly changed his words and said, "My lord, when you first saw that corpse, did you find anything abnormal?"
"Abnormal?" Yi Cheng was stunned, and after recalling it carefully, he said: "I didn't find anything abnormal, I just knew that someone was dead at the beginning, and I didn't observe it too carefully." ”
"Then who has touched the corpse before and after you?" asked Li Rong.
Yi Cheng was alert for a moment and asked, "Why are you asking this?"
Li Rong opened his mouth and said with a dry smile: "It's just curiosity." ”
Yi Cheng was silent for a while, took the teacup and drank it all, and said, "I still have something to do, I need to go out, you can go, leave the post station as soon as possible." ”
Yi Cheng was giving an eviction order, and Li Rong and the three of them had no choice but to get up and leave Yi Cheng's house.
They have gained some from this trip, but there are still many problems in the clouds.
"Li Rong, there must be something wrong with the identity of that little woman. While walking on the road, Li Wushuang suddenly whispered to Li Rong.
Li Rong nodded and said: "When I came last time, I found out that her dress and speech and demeanor do not match very well, and she generally feels very cowardly. ”
"The biggest flaw was that she poured the tea all over. Li Wushuang added the most important point.
Tea is full of deception, this is said to be in the guest when pouring tea can not be full, there is a lot of knowledge in this, one of the more simple is: the tea is hot, full of not good to take.
As far as the identity of the post is concerned, if he wants to marry a wife, he must be a good match, the post man has an official status, and of course he cannot marry an ignorant and rude woman.
But the little woman just now, whether it is dress, temperament, or words and deeds, does not seem to have been educated and cultivated, and feels that she is the daughter of a peasant family, illiterate and incomplete.
"It's not good to draw a conclusion on this matter, let's go to the autopsy again in the evening. (To be continued.) )
