Chapter 333: Roasted Pepper Preserved Eggs (4)
Liu Sanqing, who goes back and forth in the mine and fights with others when fighting for rough stones, is not weak, but the beggar who committed the crime, looking at his trembling appearance being held there by the servants of Jingzhao Mansion, how can he be Liu Sanqing's opponent?
The murder weapon was a long knife with a missing mouth, and the wound drawn by such a murder weapon was difficult to imitate, so it was thrown next to Liu Sanqing's body at this time. Wu Bucai, who came over, carefully checked the wound and nodded to indicate that the murder weapon was indeed this knife.
Liu Yuan squatted down, picked up the long knife that was missing and checked it in his hand: this long knife is very light, but the style is very common, and among the finished long knives in the blacksmith shops on the street, the best ones sold are these long knives.
It's not because of how good this long knife is, it's because the materials used for this long knife are "saved", so it sells cheaply.
For most people who recruit a family guard, the reason "cheap" is sufficient.
The guards guarding the home and the courtyard are mostly useful as a deterrent to ordinary people, mostly to catch one or two small thieves and ruffians and hooligans. When catching such people, most of the time they don't need a knife, because they may not be able to use a knife or two times throughout the year, so naturally choose the cheapest one, and don't feel distressed if they throw it away.
The long knife in front of him should have been thrown by others, and it was picked up by this beggar for self-defense.
"I inquired, Liu Sanqing went to drink flower wine last night, drank a few more glasses, and got drunk out of the Qinglou in the middle of the night, and when he passed by here, he asked the beggar to recognize him," the messenger glanced at the beggar who described the withered and numb beggar on the side, and said, "Seeing that Liu Sanqing is wearing gold and silver, and his life is good, but he only got a rancid steamed bun all day yesterday, and the grudge for many years rushed to his head for a while." ”
"Liu Sanqing was so drunk that he couldn't even walk steadily, and he didn't bring the guards who followed him in Su Rili, so he didn't resist at all and was directly cut to the ground by him." When the officer said this, he couldn't help but shake his head, "This cut, how can you still accept the hatred?" ”
"I cut a lot of knives, but I don't know how many times Liu Sanqing was hacked to death." The officer said, "He didn't come back to his senses until he was completely out of strength and fell to the ground, and then he sat there and didn't move," and as he spoke, the officer couldn't help but look at the beggar again, and saw that the beggar was numb, and couldn't tell whether it was sympathy or disgust or any other emotion, but he felt that his heart was full of mixed tastes and complicated tightness. After a pause, he continued, "When someone passed by at dawn, he asked people to help watch the scene, and he surrendered himself. ”
The messenger of Jingzhao Mansion explained the whole thing very clearly, and the cause and effect were smoothed out, and he couldn't find the problem for a while.
It's just that the timing of Liu Sanqing's death was too coincidental, and the eucalyptus died suddenly in the process of investigation, just like the Mao in charge, and his death was too coincidental.
Bai Zhu and Liu Yuan were silent, and after looking at Liu Sanqing, who was lying on the ground with knife marks all over his body, he paused for a long time, thought about it, and the two turned to the beggar who looked numb, Bai Zhu said: "You are now unclothed and hungry, and it is a difficult time for your life. This Liu Sanqing is very likely to be related to the eucalyptus we are waiting for, and he died so suddenly, which really makes people wonder if someone is afraid of him saying more. You have been at odds with him for decades, if you don't kill him sooner or later, you killed Liu Sanqing at this time, and it is hard to guarantee that the two of you will not think more about whether someone instructed you to do this and promised any benefits. ”
As soon as the words fell, the beggar, who was originally drooping his head and looking numb, suddenly laughed out loud, and after laughing twice, he spoke: "My lord, not to mention that after killing someone, I will be killed, according to the law of Darong, I will not escape the death penalty, so I said that myself, time is running out now, what good can I pull back from Lord Yama?" ”
Bai Zhu and Liu Yuan couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, and the messenger who spoke first nodded and said, "I've asked the doctor, it's so true." He has been begging like this for many years, and his body has long been unable to bear it, and when he kills people, no one sees it, if he wants to escape, he may not be able to escape, and he really doesn't have to sit there and wait for people to pass by. ”
As soon as these words came out, Liu Yuan immediately said: "What if he is not a murderer but just bears the blame for others?" He ......"
Before the words were completely finished, Wu Bucai, who was squatting next to the corpse, interrupted Liu Yuan's words: "Judging from the knife wounds on the surface of the corpse, the murderer is very likely to be him, and it is not easy for others to imitate it." ”
After a pause, without waiting for Bai Zhu and Liu Yuan to ask, Wu Bucai pointed to the knife wounds and said, "The murderer's knife strength is not deep, and his strength is not great, which is consistent with his condition. ”
"And these knife wounds, from the point of view of cutting in and withdrawing, should be a left-handed one," Wu Bucai said, pointing to the beggar's hand, "Look at the calloon on his hand, you can see that he is left-handed." ”
At this point, the official of Jingzhao Mansion also nodded and said, "I have asked people who know him, and it is indeed true." ”
"Not only that, although the knife marks are a little messy, but judging from the distribution location, it matches his height, so he is very likely to be the real murderer." Wu Bucai said.
Of course, yes or no, it remains to be determined again by these investigators, he is just a noon worker, in charge of the autopsy.
After listening to what Wu Bucai said, Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu fell silent again, the situation of this beggar ...... It's really hard to buy.
As for the beggar's family...... The official of Jingzhao Mansion shook his head and said, "Back then, his wife was separated and his child died of illness, although his wife remarried, she had already died a few years ago. is that the relatives who fell into the well for him have passed away one after another, and this person really has nothing to be manipulated now. ”
At this moment, I heard a voice coming from not far away: "The place where you begged for a long time was in the suburbs of the city, where the officers and soldiers would not easily expel you unless they had to, so a large number of beggars and homeless people had gathered, but today, how could you appear here?" ”
The voice...... Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu were stunned, turned his head to look over, and saw Zhao You shouting "let one go" to push aside the crowd, and followed Lin Fei from outside the crowd.
After raising his hand and saluting and calling "Lin Shaoqing", Liu Yuan, who was reminded, immediately turned his head to look at the beggar: "Lin Shaoqing is right, this place is less than a moment away from Jingzhao Mansion, you have been begging for many years, how can you not know that the closer you are to the official mansion, the easier it is to bump into the errand or officers and soldiers, and the easier it is to be expelled?" ”
All the avenues in Chang'an City are not allowed to beggar, and once the officers or soldiers see the beggars begging on the main road, they will expel them.
This place...... Looking at the wide road, there was not a single beggar in sight, obviously knowing the rules.
Liu Sanqing may indeed die at his hands, but it will never be met by chance, this beggar lied.
