383. The murderer and the deceased are familiar
Lin Xi turned out the confessions of other guests, including the shopkeeper.
Putting all the messages together, it turns out that Yueqin's timeline looks like this.
Yesterday at noon, Yueqin left the inn and went to a rouge shop a street away to buy a face, and returned to the inn room half an hour later, never reappeared.
At noon, Yueqin opened the door and called a guy at the door of the room and asked for lunch.
Coincidentally, it was Li Tian who brought lunch to Yueqin at that time.
Yueqin's attitude towards him was not enough, so it was him who went to Yueqin last night to ask if he had dinner.
Li Tian went to bring lunch to Yueqin, sent it in and then came out, did not stay inside, and Yueqin also gave him a reward.
After that, Yueqin never came out again, and no one went in again.
In the evening, another guy saw that Yueqin gave Li Tian a lot of reward at noon, so he wanted to go and stammer, and heard Yueqin in the room telling him to get out.
In the end, it was Li Tian who went over and found the deceased inside.
After combing through these, Lin Xi thought that he should order someone to summon Li Tian again, as well as the two guests who went in, whether the deceased he saw at that time was the one in the morgue.
But it's okay to ask Shen Chen, and Shen Chen also looked at the door at that time.
"Mother, it's a little strange here." The Tao of the Second Treasure Hu.
Lin Xi looked at him: "What? ”
Erbao gave Lin Xi the confession he was reading, and on it was the confession of the owner of the rouge shop, "This shopkeeper said that Yueqin had picked up rouge in their store for a long time, but when she left, she only bought one box. I see other people say that Yueqin has been in the rouge shop for half an hour, except for the time spent on the way back and forth, it can be regarded as a long stay in the store, why did she only sell one box in the end? ”
And the shopkeeper said that he didn't expect Yueqin to buy this box, which means that Yueqin may not have tried this box before. I haven't tried it, so why buy it? Why not buy the one you tried before? Have you tried it for so long? ”
Lin Xi didn't expect this, and praised him: "Erbao is amazing, your father will come back and tell him later." ”
Erbao nodded excitedly and continued to look at it seriously.
It is also said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, and then someone outside called Lord Shen.
Lin Xi immediately got up, and when he walked to the door, he saw that Shen Chen was coming in outside, followed by the county lieutenant, and the two walked while talking.
Seeing Lin Xi, Shen Chen nodded slightly to say hello.
The county lieutenant hurriedly said, "Lord Shen, you are a good man!" Xia Guan really didn't know that Yueqin was fake! The official has already finished the trial, from the inn to the yamen morgue, except for the pretense, only the two officials who are responsible for bringing it back have touched Yueqin's body. And because Lord Yang attaches great importance to it, the morgue is guarded by a special person, and without the instructions of Lord Yang and the lower officials, outsiders can't go in! ”
"And those two said that they had something to do in the morning and took leave, don't worry, the lower official has already ordered someone to bring the two officials!"
Shen Chen bowed his head, and after entering, he rummaged through a pile of materials on the table, and ordered without raising his head: "The county lieutenant of Lao immediately sent someone to investigate the people he had come into contact with before his death, where he had been, and what he had done. ”
"The murderer ......" the county lieutenant tempted.
Shen Chen said: "I'll check, you just have to check and shorten the scope." ”
"Okay!"
The county lieutenant left happily, as long as he was not responsible!
When the county lieutenant left, Erbao asked curiously, "Dad, what did you find in that house?" ”
Lin Xi also waited curiously for Shen Chen's answer.
Shen Chen finally found what he wanted at this time, and said while watching: "I have checked the scene, and I committed suicide by taking poison at home, the doors and windows are intact, and no one else has entered." There was no struggle, and the possibility of coercion by others was preliminarily ruled out. Specifically, I also need my wife to help me with an autopsy. ”
"No problem!"
Lin Xi said, glanced at what Shen Chen was holding, and found that it was an inspection of the scene of the deceased's room.
She asked, "Shen Chen, do you think that the dead and the dead have something in common?" ”
"That's right, both sites are so clean that there are almost no clues." Shen Chen frowned.
After thinking about it, he said to Erbao: "Erbao, you and Wu Jiu stay here well, don't run around." ”
Wu Jiu was at the door.
Erbao realized the seriousness and nodded obediently.
Shen Chen looked at Lin Xi, "Follow me." ”
Lin Xi answered, and Shen Chen directly took her out of the yamen.
This made Lin Xi puzzled: "Where are we going?" ”
Shen Chen said while reading the confession: "Go to the writer." I didn't let the men leave the bodies alive, so as not to destroy the scene. After I have been there, and when I go back to the inn, I will take a look at the room where the deceased lived, so that I can confirm some suspicions. ”
Lin Xi approached him and asked, "What conjecture?" ”
Shen Chen closed the confession and said, "Conjecture about how the two died." ”
Lin Xi was surprised: "Didn't you say that he committed suicide by taking poison?" ”
Shen Chen said: "Looking at the scene, this is indeed the case. But it's too similar to the inn scene, and I suspect that there are people in common involved in the two cases. In other words, when he committed suicide by taking poison, there was a second person present, that is, the murderer of the deceased who appeared in the inn, watching him drink poison and die, and then left quietly. ”
Shen Chen already knew from the county lieutenant that the deceased was not Yueqin, so Lin Xi didn't say anything more.
But hearing him say this, she said: "That is to say, since the deceased is not Yueqin, and the autopsy report is not true, so the murderer bought it to fake, and then forced it to die before people found out, so as to break this clue?" ”
Shen Chen hummed and said, "And, if my guess is correct, the two people sent by the county lieutenant to find them are probably also dead." Only in this way can the clues of the entire case be completely broken, and people will not be able to do it. ”
Lin Xi sighed: "Then how do you check it out?" ”
Shen Chen said: "Check the two sites first. In addition, for all the people who had been in contact with the deceased, I arranged for Yang Shizhong's people to go to the interview again, according to the questions I raised. I'll think about it when they get the results into my hands. ”
When Lin Xi heard this, he hurriedly told Shen Chen what he and Erbao thought of, and said, "There were two people in Yueqin's room last night, the deceased and the murderer. This murderer may be Yueqin, but I tend not to think so, because the woman doesn't have that much strength. ”
"So I think Yueqin ran away as early as when she went to the rouge shop, and it was a man who wore a human skin mask and disguised himself as her when she returned to the inn. As for the size, it should be that this man knows some bone shrinking skills or something. And he must have some ventriloquism, and he can disguise the voice of the Yueqin. ”
"In addition, if she changes someone for no reason, it is impossible for the person who is monitoring her not to notice it, unless this person is an acquaintance with Yueqin and is extremely familiar with her every move, so she can successfully return to the inn with the truth."
"Makes sense."
Shen Chen lifted the curtain and instructed the people outside to go to the county lieutenant to relay some of the things he wanted to ask.
