Chapter 34: Tie her to your side

Knowing that his suspicion of her was deeper, Chen Chaoyan still asked knowingly: "It's too complicated, I don't understand?" ”

Xie Xuan put down the teacup, took out the jade bone landscape fan and unfolded it, shook it lightly, and asked casually, "What is the mechanical injury?" ”

"Mechanical injury...... Chen Chaoyan directly endorsed, "the injury caused by the mechanical action of various injurious substances to destroy the structure of human tissues or physiological functions is called mechanical injury." ”

"What else is a mechanical injury other than boxing?" Xie Xuan still spoke in a nonchalant tone.

"Let's get back to the case." This theoretical knowledge is endless. And many modern words, she could not explain in the language of this dynasty. Therefore, Chen Chaoyan simply changed the topic and said, "The murderer can use the concussion of the base of the skull to cause bulbar hemorrhage to fake the scene of suicide, so he should be extremely familiar with the structure of the human body." In addition, there were no clues left at the scene, and it can be inferred that the murderer was skilled in martial arts and had a certain anti-investigation ability. ”

Seeing that Xie Xuan only looked at her with a smile, he didn't answer. After Chen Chaoyan raised his eyebrows, he continued: "After the Zhou family had eaten at the time of the week, Zhou Zhong had another meal in the early morning. This time, when Ling You went to Zhou's house to inquire, what did Mrs. Zhou say? ”

Xie Xuan got up and walked over to her. When he got closer, he propped his hands on the armrests on both sides of her wheelchair and looked down at her eyes, "In addition to faking suicide by making bulbar hemorrhage, what other means does Miss Chen know about faking suicide?" ”

Except for the autopsy, in ordinary life, Chen Chaoyan has never been so close to a living person of the opposite sex, especially such a picturesque beautiful boy. After swallowing two mouthfuls of saliva quietly, Chen Chaoyan teased: "Does the prince want to use beauty to let me tell my teacher?" ”

Xie Xuan hooked the corners of his mouth, and did not deny or admit it: "Zhou Zhongcai is just a non-existent Sicang history, he can only exploit ordinary people, two thousand five hundred and forty-two yuan, even if the ordinary people of the entire Luyang County are exploited, they can't exploit so much money." So, where did he get all this money? ”

Embezzlement!

Chen Chaoyan thought of these two words almost instantly.

It's just that the history of Sicang is not in the stream, nor is it included in the imperial court establishment, and the Yulu is issued by the county guard itself. If a person in such a place can embezzle 2,542 yuan, how much did his boss and his boss embezzle? Chen Chaoyan was just about to ridicule a few words, but suddenly it occurred to him that in ancient times, when imperial power was supreme, almost all the allocation of large sums of money was related to disaster relief. According to the memory of the original owner of the body, there has been no disaster in Luyang County for nearly ten years.

So, this money ...... How did it come to be, and what does it have to do with her?

Chen Chaoyan looked at Xie Xuan and said with a smile: "Where did all this money come from, and what does it have to do with the means I know to commit suicide?" ”

"It seems that Miss Chen hasn't understood the seriousness of this matter yet," Xie Xuan was stunned by the bright smile in her eyes, and after getting up and taking two steps back unnaturally, she said slowly, "Zhou Zhong died last night, and when he died, the splattered blood stains that should have appeared did not appear, what does this mean?" ”

Chen Chaoyan still had a smiling expression: "What does it mean?" ”

Xie Xuan looked into her eyes, "Miss Chen only used blood stains to solve the Bao family's massacre yesterday afternoon, and Zhou Zhongcai died in the evening, and after her death, the splattered blood stains also disappeared. What does this mean, Ms. Chan? ”

It shows that the murderer is a person from the county guard's mansion!

But...... It still doesn't seem to have anything to do with what she knows about the means of suicide. Chen Chaoyan endured it, and finally teased without holding back: "The prince doesn't have to test me around the bush, where I am taught, I will naturally say it when I can say it, and when I can't say it, it is useless to tempt." In addition, for now, I am on the same side as the prince. I'm not a murderer and I won't be a murderer. ”

Xie Xuan playfully: "For now? ”

"Or else?" Chen Chaoyan raised his eyebrows, "The prince is noble, and I am just an ordinary person." When the prince returns to the capital, I will continue my old life. If there is no accident, the prince and I will never cross paths again in our lives. So the prince doesn't have to waste his tongue again and again to test me. ”

Xie Xuan joked: "Miss Chen is really bitter in order to get rid of me. ”

Chen Chaoyan Wan'er: "Didn't the prince take the same pains to test me?" ”

Xie Xuan took two steps closer: "If I'm not mistaken, I seem to have a life-saving grace for Miss Chen." ”

"The prince does have a life-saving grace for me," Chen Chaoyan said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "but the prince's use of me to lure Lord Zhou into the bait is enough to offset this life-saving grace." In addition, I solved the tragedy of the Bao family for the prince, and took over the case of Zhou Zhongcai, and the two combined, the prince's kindness in treating me and my brother is enough to repay. ”

Xie Xuan sat back on the chaise longue, leaned on a few points, and said slowly: "According to the meaning of Miss Chen's words, you and I don't owe each other. If another accident happens, and you and I continue to intersect, then Miss Chen is a suspicious person? ”

"It's not." Chen Chaoyan said sharply, "If there is another accident, let me and the prince intersect again, it can only prove that I am good enough and the prince urgently needs me!" ”

Xie Xuan was stunned for a moment, then chuckled. Then, through the curling tea mist, he raised his eyes to look at her. Looking at this moment, her eyes as beautiful as a fox, and the light of confidence, calmness and certainty loaded with her bright eyes completely covered up her various defects such as dull yellow skin caused by long-term malnutrition, and became extraordinarily dazzling, and her heart suddenly felt a tide of emotion.

After narrowing his eyes slightly, after suppressing this inexplicable emotion, he raised his eyes again, looked at Chen Chaoyan, who had returned to his usual appearance, and suddenly thought: If you tie her to her side and pamper her with delicious food and drink for May, June and July, I wonder if she can be better than the first beauty in the capital of Taifu Mansion?

Once an idea is generated, it quickly takes root in the bottom of his heart, Xie Xuan looked at it coldly, and did not intend to cut it off. After only taking two sips of tea, after pressing the crazy growth of the branches, he casually said, 'Then wait and see', and then turned the topic back and said: "What else does the murderer have besides knowing enough about the human body, martial arts and counter-reconnaissance?" ”

"In general, homicide cases are for three purposes: first, revenge; the second is love; The third is wealth. It is unclear which case it will be for. Chen Chaoyan saw that he finally stopped pestering her teacher, and while he was relieved, he immediately replied, "But when you investigate, you can start from five aspects, one is Zhou Zhongcai's social relationship, that is, the person who has close contacts with Zhou Zhongcai, either openly or secretly; the second is the fertile land he bought on the outskirts of the city; the third is the source of Zhou Zhongcai's meal before he died; Fourth, the two deeds of deed; The fifth is Song Yanzhong. ”

Xie Xuan motioned for Bai Shao to pour her a cup of tea, and after that, he asked quietly, "Do you suspect Song Yanzhong?" ”

"Sort of." After thinking about it, Chen Chaoyan said, "If the murderer cleaned up the splattered blood stains and was affected by the tragedy of my breaking the Bao family, then the murderer or one of the murderers is very likely to be from the county guard's mansion." According to your train of thought, there is someone behind Meng Baishan, and this person is very likely to be in the county guard's mansion, so the people in the county guard's mansion will have to do a screening sooner or later. ”

"Song Yanzhong is the nephew of Mrs. Song and has a close relationship with the Song family. It just so happens that he is a person from the county guard, and I can't understand his words and deeds, and in terms of suspicion, he is undoubtedly the biggest one in the county guard. ”

Xie Xuan nodded and said, "Accept it." However, "there are not 100 restaurants in Luyang County, but 80, and it is probably difficult to find out the source of Zhou Zhongcai's meal before he died." This also has to rule out the premise that the food was brought by the murderer from his own home, if not ruled out......"

"Check slowly, don't be in a hurry." Chen Chaoyan took his words lightly, "So far, the clues found in this case have no clear direction. If you want to catch the murderer, you can only find the same way until you find the exact evidence. As for the meal before he died, it was not so much a clue as evidence that confirmed that Zhou Zhongcai was killed by him. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Chaoyan suddenly remembered the wine pot and the deed of borrowing that Ling You brought back, and hurriedly put aside the teacup and asked, "What about the jug and the deed?" Give it to me! ”
