Chapter 44: Another Homicide

Rifle Inn,

Li Luodi was nibbling on a big chicken leg and was getting closer to Zao Wou-ki, who was drinking white porridge with pickles on the other side.

Zhao Wouji saw that Li Luodi's mouth was full of oil, and then looked at his white porridge with clear soup and little water, which was instantly tasteless.

Just when Li Luodi pulled Zhao Wuji to chat hard, Bai Xiaoer knocked on the door gently, "Brother Luo, Jingzhao Mansion Liu Zhutou is looking for you!" ”

"What's the matter with him?"

Since Li Luodi promised Liu Neng to be a temporary servant yesterday, that is, a white servant, Liu Neng was overjoyed, so that the former did not need to clock in and out of work on time every day, and only needed to appear when there was a case.

This era is limited by technology and equipment, and most of the cases in ancient times are headless cases.

Recently, due to the matter of the envoy of Western Xia, the above issued a death order to Jingzhao Mansion, and it is strictly forbidden to have fights and brawls in Shangjing, let alone homicides.

Therefore, the security of the entire Shangjing City is now extremely strict, and the forbidden army will patrol any street in Shangjing at any time.

In addition, the Red Lotus Sect has been about to move recently, and a little red has come back from the dead, which has made the people in the capital panic.

Li Luodi knew that Liu Neng suddenly came to him, it must be related to the case, but he didn't know if it was related to a little red.

"I didn't say it, but looking at Liu Zhutou's appearance, it's still very urgent."

"That's it!" Hearing this, Brother Li Luo's eyes flashed, put down the chicken bones that he had gnawed, and immediately smiled apologetically at Zao Wou-ki, "Brother Zhao, the little brother has something to delay, and I will talk to you when I finish dealing with it." ”

"Li Gongzi, please!"

After Li Luodi left, Zao Wou-Ki looked at the remaining half of the roast chicken, salivated, looked left and right, and after making sure that there was no one, he just wanted to pick up the roast chicken to satisfy his hunger.

Seeing Brother Li Luo go and return, he broke in, picked up the remaining half of the roast chicken in Zao Wouji's eyes, and left, and at the end, he wondered, "Brother Zhao, I see that the porridge in your bowl has not moved much, is it that you have no appetite!" ”

"When I come back, I'll ask Big Mouth to add some green cabbage leaves to it next time I cook porridge for you."

"With green accents, it's a little more appetizing."

Zao Wou-Ki......

"Liu Zhutou, did you go to Yihong Courtyard again last night?"

After coming to the lobby, Li Luodi saw Liu Neng wandering left and right outside the door of the inn, staring at the dark circles under his eyes and looking impatient.

"Okay, Brother Li, don't make fun of me, I've been scorched lately!" Seeing Brother Li Luo, Liu Neng's anxious expression suddenly surged with a hint of joy, and then said with a wry smile, "Hurry up and clean up and follow me to a place." ”

"Another case?" Hearing this, Li Luodi didn't joke and got serious.

"Well, outside the capital, thirty miles away from the official road, someone reported to the official, saying that he found a dead person, who died miserably and was stabbed several times."

"Oh!" Hearing this, Li Luodi did not speak, and waited for Liu Neng's next words.

Sure enough, Liu Neng's expression was slightly solemn, and he continued, "Not far from the deceased, a deceased who was also dead was found in a bush, and on his left shoulder, a lotus flower was engraved. ”

"Red Lotus Sect?" Hearing this, Li Luodi frowned slightly.

"Well, hurry up and pack up, let's go over."

"Wait for me for a while, I'll go and apply to Lord Chen before I can leave the inn."

Hearing this, Jing Mingsi, who was guarding the door of the inn, clenched his fists and arched his hands, "Li Shusheng, Brother Chen will explain to us, Li Shusheng enters and exits the inn, no need to report, please just do it!" ”

Just now Liu Neng wanted to enter the inn, but was stopped by the mirror in front of the door, and refused to let Liu Neng and other officials enter on the grounds of the Western Xia envoy station.

Seeing this, Liu Neng had no choice but to wait outside.

"Then there are the two brothers of Mirror Mingji!" Hearing this, Li Luodi replied, and immediately stopped delaying, and followed Liu Neng and others to the outside of the capital.

Originally, Li Luodi and the others could only take the No. 11 bus, that is, on foot.

But when it came to the Red Lotus Sect, Liu Neng had already asked the officials below to bring the horses, and everyone rode out immediately.

Li Luodi rode a fast horse and galloped in Shangjing, riding very carefully, for fear of hitting pedestrians, and looked at Liu Neng who was galloping in front of him, and wondered, "Can you still ride a horse in Shangjing?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Nengtou, who was riding in front, did not reply, "Theoretically, it is not possible, but except for the scouts who report the military situation, the Jingming Division, the East and West Factory, and the Jingzhao Mansion that handles the case, other people, even the royal relatives and nobles, cannot ride horses in the capital." ”

After about three hours, Li Luodi's buttocks were sour, and he arrived at the scene of the crime.

By the time Li Luodi and Liu Neng arrived, there were already officials on guard to protect the scene of the crime.

The scene of the crime was a field, and the person who reported the crime was an old man who had come to the field to look at his wheat, and saw a dead body walking beside the field that had long been breathless.

After reporting the case, the nearby officials hurriedly came, and after searching around, they found a man in black in the bushes not far away, and after careful investigation, they found a lotus mark on his left shoulder.

Therefore, he realized that the matter was very important, so he reported it to Jingzhao Mansion.

"This person should have lost his anger last night, judging from the corpse spots on the deceased's face, the time of the crime should have been last night!" Li Luodi took a closer look, looked at the corpse spots on the deceased's face, the stiffness of his limbs, and asked the official who was docking with Liu Neng.

"Oh, who is this?" The official saw that Li Luodi was white, as if he was not catching fast, and said curiously at the moment.

"Wang Zhutou, let me introduce you, this is Li Shusheng, Li Luodi, who is on this year's high school list." Hearing this, Liu Neng hurriedly introduced to Wang Zhutou on the side, "At the same time, it is also me, who spent a lot of effort to invite a temporary consultant. ”

Hearing this, Wang Zhutou was stunned, and then admired, "It turned out to be Li Shusheng, who is worthy of being the person on this year's list, thoughtful, and not bad at all with what he has reported." ”

"There are also multiple knife wounds on this person's body, but they are not fatal wounds, what really killed him was the overnight pursuit, which made him tired and exhausted, and finally escaped here, and after killing the man in black next to him, he died of exhaustion."

"As for this person suspected to be from the Red Lotus Sect, there is a fatal knife wound on the neck, it is obvious that this is a fatal knife, and he was killed by this person."

Hearing this, while admiring Wang Zhutou, he was puzzled, "Then why did this person die with several knives, and the remnants of the Red Lotus Sect on the side only died with one sword?" ”

Hearing this, Brother Li Luodi clapped his hands, stood up and said with a smile, "Judging from the scene, it is not only this remnant of the Red Lotus Sect who is chasing and killing this person, it should be a number of Red Lotus Sect disciples, obviously this person's martial arts are higher than the remnants of the Red Lotus Sect." ”

"From the messy clothes of the deceased and the messy footprints on the field, it can be seen that they should have searched for what they were looking for on this person after they beat and killed him."

"Then, take the corpses of the rest of the accomplices away to avoid future troubles, probably in a panic, leaving behind the corpses of accomplices that fell in the bushes."

"To sum up, it should be so."

Eh, why Li Luodi is very clear about the injury examination, because his father in this world is a very famous coroner, and he has been playing it since he was a child.

"Awesome!" Seeing that Li Luodi finished his analysis, Liu Nengwang caught the first-class officials and praised them.

"It is imperative that as long as the identity of the deceased is identified, the case can be slowly sorted out."

In a homicide case, the first thing must be to find out the identity of the deceased, and then investigate the interpersonal relationships of the deceased before his death, and then slowly determine whether it is a vendetta, a love killing, or a murder for money.
