Chapter 80: Who Died?
Mr. Chen was not buried, he had no family, and the domestic servants were locked up in prison, so the county government bought him a coffin and stopped the coffin in Yizhuang.
As soon as he heard that the autopsy was going to be re-examined, he went to Yizhuang to bring the body out, checked it again, and then went out to ask Gu Junruo and the others who were waiting in the courtyard, "What does Madame want to test?" ”
Gu Junruo was silent for a moment and then said, "Hand." ”
"I know that people's right and left hands are a little different because of different habits," she said. ”
He nodded: "Yes, people usually use the right hand, so generally speaking, there will be more calluses on the right hand than on the left hand, and the muscles will be different." ”
After a pause, he said, "But this corpse has been charred, and you can't see it by looking at the skin, but you can see the bones." ”
This is a large amount of work, and it will damage the corpse to a certain extent.
Gu Junruo said: "You check it first to see if there is any abnormality." ”
After doing so, he went back to the house to have an autopsy.
It wasn't until the afternoon that he came to the result, he washed his hands, changed his clothes, and went to see Han Mu and Gu Junruo, and reported: "My lord, madam, this corpse is left-handed. ”
Han Mu's eyes widened slightly, and he turned his head to look at Gu Junruo, "Mr. Chen is also left-handed?" ”
Gu Junruo said: "Whether he is left-handed or not, you can ask Chen Shi, and you can also ask his old friend." ”
Han Mu thought about it for a while, then called Ding Si, "Go and ask the county school to come over and ask him to bring some manuscripts left by Mr. Chen." ”
Ding Si should go down and immediately go to ask for someone.
The Luo family was not very far from the county government, and Ding Si quickly brought people in, along with Luo Yu and He Ziyou.
Han Mu glanced at He Ziyou in surprise, not understanding how he followed these two people.
Luo Jiaoyu was a middle-aged man with a pale face, and Luo Yu helped him in.
Han Mu glanced at the two of them, his eyes fell on Luo Yu, and asked flatly, "Luo Yu, aren't you in charge of the laborers, why did you get here?" ”
Luo Yu hurriedly said: "Lord Hui, today is the middle of the month, and Mrs. stipulates that in the middle of each month, the laborers can have a day off, so I will also take a break today." ”
She saw Han Mu looking at her father, and hurriedly said, "This is my father." ”
Sect Luo also hurriedly saluted, Han Mu waved his hand and asked, "Sect Luo and Chen Jian are friends?" ”
"Yes," mentioning his good friend, Luo Jiaoyu's face turned even paler, and he said with a bitter face: "Not long before the incident, my family borrowed two catties of grain from him, and I really didn't expect him to suffer this catastrophe." ”
He looked at his daughter, and Luo Yu immediately took out a painting from the blanket he was carrying on his shoulders and handed it over.
Luo Jiao said: "This is something that adults want. ”
He said: "Although Mr. Chen and I are friends, he rarely writes, but paints more. ”
Xiaobei took the painting and gave it to Han Mu.
Han Mu took a look at it, and handed it to Gu Junruo casually, anyway, he couldn't tell if it was right-handed or left-handed.
On the painting is a Linxue red plum, and there is an inscription next to it, Gu Junruo asked: "This word is also inscribed by Chen Jian?" ”
Although Luo Jiaoyu was puzzled, he still nodded, "Yes." ”
Gu Junruo rolled up the scroll, "Luo Jiaoyu has seen Mr. Chen draw with a pen, I don't know if he is usually right-handed or left-handed?" ”
Luo Jiao said: "Naturally, it is right-handed, and Mr. Chen is not left-handed. ”
Chen Jian is not left-handed, but the people who died in Chen's house are left-handed.
Gu Junruo and Han Mu glanced at each other, and they both thought of Zhang Yuan.
Han Mu returned the painting to Sect Luo, "It's okay, let's go." ”
After taking the painting, Luo Jiaoyu asked, "My lord, I wonder when Mr. Chen's body will be taken away?" ”
He said sadly: "Mr. Chen helped me when I was in danger, he has no family, and I should handle the funeral for him, so I also ask the adults to allow me to take his body away for burial." ”
Han Mu said expressionlessly: "It's still early for this matter, you go back and listen to the news." ”
He probably won't be able to get the body.
Luo Jiaoyu looked puzzled, "Why, hasn't the murderer been determined to be Ma Shuifeng and Zhang Yuan?" The next thing they want is that if they can't catch the murderer, they won't be allowed to bury the victim, right? ”
Han Mu said: "Who said that I only allowed the victim to be buried after I caught the murderer, this county just asked you to wait, not to mention, do you need to get the body, there is also a Chen family servant in the prison." ”
He Zi hurriedly walked up to him and whispered, "You are gentle, why are you so fierce?" ”
Han Mu glared at him, "What's wrong with me?" ”
Luo Jiaoyu agreed, and sighed: "Okay, I hope that the adults can catch the murderer as soon as possible, in order to comfort Mr. Chen's spirit in the sky, and when Chen Shi brings out the corpse, I must hold a funeral for him again." ”
Han Mu waved him away.
Luo Yu helped his father to leave, and He Ziyou raised his feet and was about to follow, but Han Mu, who was quick-eyed, grabbed the back collar.
When the two of them walked away, Han Mu frowned and looked at He Ziyou, "What are you doing with them?" So idle? ”
"How can it be called idle? I'm here to help you understand how the cash-for-work work in the county town has been carried out in the month we have been away."
Han Mu took the opportunity to ask, "How's it going?" ”
"It's not bad," He Ziyou said: "Miss Gu is really wise, Luo Yu is very capable, assisting Master Zhao to do things in an orderly manner, and the refugees who come to the county to seek work are very convinced of her." ”
Han Mu frowned slightly, "What does Master Zhao do for food, why do you let an outsider take the lead?" Shouldn't he be responsible for such things as cash-for-work? ”
"Come on, don't mention your Zhao master book," He Ziyou said: "I understand, your Zhao master book is like a loach, in the past, when Yixian was sad, he could eat enough and not be wronged at all, let alone now." ”
"I heard that the Zeng family, the Yao family, and the Yue family were very polite to him," he said, "In the month of your absence, the Zeng family and the Yao family have been close to him." ”
Han Mu said indifferently: "If you are close, you can be close, as long as you don't blame me on the matter, otherwise I will have to worry about changing the master book." ”
Now he is not very familiar with Yixian, if he changes the main book, he will not be able to find anyone to change it for a while.
Han Mu pondered for a moment and frowned fiercely, "No, Ma Shuifeng and Zhang Yuan still have some reasons to kill Chen Jian, but what is the reason for killing Zhang Yuan?" ”
"Zhang Yuan is dead?" He Ziyou was shocked, "Have you found the body?" ”
Han Mu glanced at him and said, "The charred corpse in Chen's house is not Chen Jian, but Zhang Yuan. ”
He Ziyou looked confused, "No, I haven't seen you for half a day, how did I get to this point?" How do you know that it's Zhang Yuan and not Chen Jian? ”
Han Mu didn't bother to explain, and called directly, "Xiaobei!" ”
Xiaobei immediately stepped forward and pulled He Ziyou aside, explained to him in detail this and that, and then He Ziyou understood.
He was so surprised, "Chen Jian's hand is smart, not only killed people, but also avoided all suspicions, and he can start over with a different identity." ”
