Chapter 39: The Luoyang Bloody Case
The express delivery business is being carried out in an orderly manner, after all, it is a new thing, and the people do not understand it for a while, and it is also within the scope of Zhao Zili's expectations.
Just as everything was going according to plan, a murder broke the peace in front of him.
In a small stall less than a mile away from the Song Palace, a father and daughter who sold breakfast were found dead at home, and the death was so tragic that even the well-informed Plum Blossom Pavilion was startled.
Tu Qianqiu, over forty years old, used to be a famous swordsman in the rivers and lakes, and hated long hair, so he shaved himself into a plank, with a dark complexion and small eyes.
Now he has become the owner of the Sixth Pavilion, and the Sixth Pavilion is also responsible for the investigation and detection of the Luoyang homicide case.
"Look at these newcomers, they're all about to spit out the bile." The deputy pavilion master of the sixth pavilion of Lengyan, as his name suggests, is a veritable rose with thorns in his name.
"Everyone still has to adapt, are there any clues on the scene of Wanpeng." Tu Qianqiu came to the scene, this place was too close to the Song Palace, and he had to pay attention to it.
Wan Peng, a member of the Sixth Pavilion, is usually taciturn, but in fact he is jealous and hateful in his heart, he is not tall, but he has a delicate mind, and he has found many clues that have been overlooked.
"It's a master's doing, boss, come and see." Wang Peng brought Tu Qianqiu into the house.
The furniture in the house was messy, and it was supposed to be after a fight, but the surrounding residents were not aware of it, and it was obvious that the resistance was not strong.
There were two corpses in the room, the first was an old man, lying face down on the ground, pierced through the heart with a sword from the back, it seemed that there was no reaction, it was definitely a swordsman who could be instantly killed.
There was also a woman on the bed, her throat had been cut, her hands were tied, but the body was face up, and blood was spraying everywhere.
There was also blood and towels left behind by the murderer after wiping it in the basin on the side.
"Boss, look, the murderer obviously knows the old man, there is no fight in the yard, obviously the old man brought him in."
Wan Peng then said: "The murderer came in and killed the old man with a sword, and then grabbed the woman and tied it up and threw it on the bed, killing her. But there was no further violation, the most important thing was that the shape of the blood spray was very weird, there were not a few drops of blood on the woman's body, but there were a lot of them on the face, and it shouldn't be like this to cut the throat. ”
Wan Peng thought about several situations that did not match the bloodstains at the scene, which made him very distressed.
Leng Yan carefully looked at the surrounding traces, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and said to Wan Peng: "Will the murderer ride on this woman, and then separate her throat, and then use his body to block the blood that spurts." ”
Wan Peng slapped his thigh and said: "That's right, that's right, if that's the case, the situation at the scene will be completely explained, but the amount of blood sprayed out is not right, it seems to be a lot less." ”
"It should have been drunk by the murderer." Tu Qianqiu said that he suddenly remembered that several similar murders had been reported in several state capitals not long ago.
"Boss, you mean the murderer drank the blood that spurted out." Leng Yan was also a little sick to her stomach suddenly, which was also terrifying.
Wan Peng suddenly remembered something, and said: "By the way, there was also a murder case in Liangzhou last month, and the description in the file is very close to now, and Xiqin seems to have also appeared, but the information is incomplete and it is not certain whether it was committed by the same person." ”
"It seems that it is still a transnational serial killing, and he can safely escape from Western Qin, it seems that this person's martial arts and strategies are first-class." I didn't expect the situation to become so complicated, Tu Qianqiu's expression was solemn, and he said: "There are more than ten days left to be the birthday of the queen's mother, and the case happened again near the Song Palace, and the murderer must be caught within five days." ”
Luoyang has a large population, and what happened can spread quickly, not to mention that at the door of his home, Zhao Zili also heard the rumors.
"Uncle Xiang, I heard that there was a murder nearby, right?" Zhao Zili asked Gao Xiang to ask.
"Back to the prince, it was a small shop, the father and daughter were killed, and the subordinates still knew them." Gao Xiang was a little embarrassed, although it was a small shop, it was very close to the palace, and Gao Xiang had often visited it for so many years.
"Hey, everyone has a life." Zhao Zili also shook his head, and at this moment, Fan Wusu walked in.
"Lord Wang, one of the two masters who have been monitoring the palace suddenly disappeared, and his subordinates felt that something was wrong, so they came to report that Xie Bi'an had gone to search for it secretly." In the face of this unknown enemy, everyone did not dare to slack off, and this sudden change immediately aroused Fan Wuxuan's vigilance.
Zhao Zili didn't pay much attention to the murder, but at this time, there was one less person in the monitor, and he couldn't help but have some associations.
"Uncle Xiang, if you want to borrow the file of the murder case, just say that this king has nothing to do, pass the time, and the people of the Plum Blossom Pavilion should cooperate." Zhao Zili didn't want to be in unknown danger.
"Yes, my subordinates will do it."
"Fan is not saved, you continue to monitor the remaining person." After the arrangement, Zhao Zili called the newly recruited guards quicksand and war repair, and he was also a Jianghu ranger who lived in Luoyang for a long time, and was impressed by Zhao Zili's bearing after the state banquet and came to defect.
"I've seen the prince, but I don't know what to tell my subordinates to get up." As the name suggests, the quicksand man is superb and extremely good at fighting, just like quicksand, which makes people unable to break free. War repair, nicknamed Ruthless Xiushi, looks like a weak scholar, holding a book of Analects in his hand all the year round, and there are a variety of hidden weapons in the book that make people unguardable.
"Outside the palace, there was a murder, but it seems to be related to the palace, you took half of the guards in the palace to control outside the palace, and reported it as soon as there was news." Zhao Zili's move was to startle the snake, if it was really for him, he would definitely make a move when he saw the emptiness in the house.
The two received the order and immediately began to act.
In a dark corner not far from the palace, a man wearing a black cloak and holding a red broken sword hid in the damp sewer with dull eyes, and seemed to be very afraid of the sun, and he had not seen the sun for many years, his teeth turned yellow, his pupils were brown, and he faintly saw red fluorescence in the dim light.
The skin has been reddened, blistered, and ulcerated by the sun, and the arms under the cloak are faintly visible after scarring, and the nose, ears, and fingers (toes) have begun to die, and serious areas have begun to mutilate.
"Epidemic, I know you're nearby, you can't escape, no one can escape the tracking of the disaster, for the sake of my colleagues, I can give you a good time." The person who came was the typhoon disaster, and not long ago, he suddenly received an order to betray the organization and fled to Luoyang.
So he and the Yan Plague soldiers split into two ways, he was responsible for tracking the epidemic, and the Yan Disaster continued to monitor the Song Palace.
Hearing the sound of the wind disaster, the epidemic disaster obviously produced fear, at this time his injuries were not healed, when he escaped from Xiqin, he was injured by the master of Xiqin, and fled all the way to Luoyang, originally wanted to defect to Prince Rong, but he didn't expect Prince Rong to die, and he had no choice but to kill people in Luoyang.
Knowing the horror of the storm, the plague held his breath and couldn't let out a breath until it was confirmed that the storm was gone, and then he walked out of the sewer.
Looking at the sun that was about to go down, madness appeared again on the white face of the plague, the night was his best cover, without the suppression of the sun, he could exert his strength to the fullest.
Leaping forward, jumping onto the fence, and began to search for the next target, a few more, a few more virgin injuries would be completely healed, and a low, terrifying laugh came out of his mouth.
Plum Blossom Pavilion, Gao Xiang saw Tu Qianqiu: "Lord Tu, my prince heard about the recent murder, and he is bored at home, and I don't know if I can see the file." ”
"What's wrong with that, this incident happened around Prince Song's mansion, and it is natural for the prince to pay attention." Tu Qianqiu quickly took the file over, and attached a lot of other case files.
"In fact, this murderer is a transnational murderer, there are similar murders in several countries, all the information collected by the Plum Blossom Pavilion here, the prince is highly talented, maybe he can really find out something."
After Emperor Wu received the report from the Plum Blossom Pavilion, he guessed that Zhao Zili might be concerned about the case, so he had already ordered that if the King of Song sent someone to ask, he must fully cooperate, and Emperor Wu's mind was also very simple, his son was not a few years old, and he would try his best to support what he wanted to do.
"Thank you, Lord Tu." Gao Xiang returned to the palace with a stack of files, and Zhao Ziyu also came to visit Zhao Zili in the palace.
When he saw the dossier, he couldn't help asking, "Seventh brother, you are now recuperating your body, why do you have to spend your mind reading these dossiers." ”
Zhao Zili smiled and said: "I also know my body, if I can live one day at a time, I can't keep it like this, look at the file and raise my spirit." ”
"It's okay, I also asked the sixth sister, and she also said that instead of letting you just rest with nothing to do, it is better to find something to do, maybe it will help the seventh brother."
Zhao Zifeng is now immersed in studying medical books, soaking in the Tai Hospital all day long to consult Li Shizhen, she thinks that if there is a miracle that can cure Zhao Zili, even if it is not cured, it is good to prolong her life.
"The sixth sister has a heart, and the death of a person is either lighter than a feather or heavier than Mount Tai. can benefit Da Zhou and Nanqiang, and I can be regarded as a well-deserved death. ”
When Zhao Ziyu heard this, he couldn't help but be impressed by Zhao Zili's mind and bearing again, and said: "Seventh brother, your talent is definitely first-class when you look at Da Zhou, if it weren't for the conspiracy, the eldest brother and the second brother would definitely not be your opponents, and the position of prince is within reach." ”
"Silly girl, what's so good about being an emperor, look at my father, how much helplessness, how much involuntary self-help, it's better to be a carefree king like now, and when your body is better, Seventh Brother will go to the fiefdom and live a few years of carefree life."
Zhao Zili said while looking at the file in front of him, he always felt that something appeared in his mind, but he couldn't grasp it, and suddenly saw Zhao Ziyu grasping the bright red peach, and when he bit it, the juice splashed, and he instantly understood something.
"Ninth sister, you can help spread out all these files and put them on the ground."
Zhao Ziyu hurriedly helped, and soon the dossier was spread out one by one in the front hall, Zhao Zili paced back and forth in the dossier, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, as he expected.
