Chapter VI: Homicide

The next morning, Shen Lian, who had just ordered Mao, suddenly heard the thud of the drum outside the yamen being hammered, and the sound was deafening.

Several of the officers were talking and laughing, discussing with each other the girl they were looking for in Baihualou yesterday.

After hearing the sound of the drums, Shen Lian saw that their faces were all stiff, and then immediately rushed out.

Shen Lian also followed behind and went to understand the situation.

In fact, he didn't really want to go, but he couldn't bear a heart that wanted to eat melons.

With so many colleagues, you shouldn't get involved in any trouble, right?

I followed behind, and when I saw that things were not good, I pulled my legs and ran.

According to the laws of Dayu, the common people are not allowed to enter the yamen directly when they report to the officials, and they need to beat the drum of grievances outside the yamen first, and then they can tell their grievances when the officials come to take over the case.

As the distance got closer, the drums became louder and louder, and from the continuous sounds, Shen Lian could feel the grief in the hearts of the people who beat the drums.

At this time, he didn't want to go, but the ignorant Zhao Gangjing grabbed his arm and pulled him away.

"Boss, hurry up, someone is complaining."

"I ....."

Outside the yamen, next to the drums, a thin boy of fifteen or sixteen wiped his tears and continued to beat the drum.

Shen Lian saw that the young man was wearing linen clothes, which were covered with dust, his face was dirty, his hands and wrists were red and swollen, and there were traces of suspected being tied.

Seeing several officials in poor clothes coming, the young man immediately knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing, "Please avenge my sister, she was killed." ”

As he spoke, the young man's tears burst into tears.

At this time, Shen Lian noticed that the young man not only had a wrist injury, but also marks of being beaten on his face, the corners of his mouth were cracked, and his right eye was red and swollen.

"Dead?" All the officers were shocked.

Dayu law, murderers pay for their lives!

"Don't cry yet, make things clear, what's your name? Who killed your sister? Among the errand officers at the scene, Liu Baihu had the largest official position, so he asked.

"Grass people Guan Xu, my sister Guan Lin was killed by the son of the servant of the ministry." The boy's voice trembled, and he said as he kowtowed.

Bang!

Shen Lian was like being struck by lightning, he was in a trance, and he almost fell.

Guan Lin, is it the woman from yesterday?

"What nonsense!" Liu Baihu was also startled, and his face instantly lost blood, "Do you know who the servant of the Ministry is?" The family members of the officials who framed the court officials were to be sent to the army! ”

"The grass people don't know, but when the man humiliated my sister, he said that his father was a servant of the ministry, and asked the adults to make the decisions for the grass people, and the grass people only have one relative, my sister." The boy cried sadly.

Liu Baihu secretly said that it was troublesome, this second ancestor actually caused a fatality!

Shen Lian's face was even more pale.

"Why don't you go to the county government office?" Instinctively, Liu Baihu didn't want to take over the case.

"Back to my lord, the county government is all bad people, a while ago, he injured the grass people for no reason after drinking, and the county master not only did not give a grievance, but also wronged the grass people for stealing; The grass people have seen the poor master here patrolling the streets, teaching bullies on the street, and they know that they will be able to redress the grievances of the grass people. ”

Alas, the sorrow of the toiling masses.

Homicide cases can also be accepted by the Patrol Division.

At this time, the people passing by heard the movement and stopped to watch.

Seeing that there were more and more people, Liu Baihu sighed, he glanced at Shen Lian, and then said to the young man, "Where is your sister's body?" Take us there. ”

"It's in the grass people's house."

Liu Baihu sent someone to call him and go together.

On the way, through inquiry, Shen Lian understood the ins and outs of the matter, and deduced the case in his mind.

According to Guan Xu, after dark yesterday, a group of people suddenly broke into the door, and the noble son led by him threw Guan Lin, who was sewing clothes, to the ground without saying a word, doing dirty things.

After Guan Xu was beaten, he tied his hands, gagged his mouth, and hung himself on the beams of the house.

The more Guan Lin begged for mercy, the more excited the noble son became, and claimed to be the son of the servant of the ministry, and asked Guan Lin to cooperate obediently and take the initiative to serve.

Later, because Guan Lin resisted, he bit Li Wei's shoulder, scratched his neck, and was severely beaten; After Li Wei finished doing bad things, he let his attendants take turns to do bad things.

Afterwards, Li Wei used a bamboo stick to stab Guan Lin's ten fingers and special positions, and Guan Lin fainted in pain.

After Li Wei woke him up with urine, he forced Guan Lin to bite the corner of the table, and he bombarded Guan Lin with his elbow on the back of the head, causing all his teeth to be shattered.

Guan Lin fainted again, and after Li Wei stepped forward to confirm that the snort was still alive, he threw down fifty taels of silver and left.

About half an hour later, Guan Xu successfully broke free from the hemp rope, stepped forward to inspect his sister's injury, and found that he had long lost his breath and heartbeat.

Damn it! Brute!

Li Wei's crime reminded Shen Lian of a case he had handled in his previous life.

In the same way, a second-generation official spoiled the girl in the flower season, and brutally abused him to death, and when the human and material evidence was complete, Shen Lian filed a case for investigation and arrested; But because of this person's strong background, after many operations, in the end, the superiors came to the conclusion that the evidence was insufficient and he was acquitted.

Shen Lian was angry but found his superiors to argue, and was scolded for obeying orders!

At that time, the girl's mother cried in front of Shen Lian and passed out, became depressed, and unfortunately passed away three months later.

The girl's father was grief-stricken and asked the rich second generation for an explanation, but he was seriously injured, and then characterized as intentional homicide and imprisoned.

In order to bring the real culprit to justice, Shen Lian has repeatedly proposed to re-investigate the case, but it has been rejected by his superiors.

The last time, his superiors warned him that if he continued to pester, he would be transferred to work in the western mountains.

Guan Xu in front of him made Shen Lian recall this matter again.

He clenched his fists, and a wave of anger rose in his heart.

According to Shen Lian's previous plan, he would stay in this world for a while, and after he had thoroughly figured out the way, he would then make a fortune with the rich scientific knowledge of his previous life.

I know all the skills of the traverser, I can make silver by making wine and soap, and I can make more than I can show my saints in front of people who copy poems.........

And the bad luck of being imprisoned at the beginning and almost being beheaded made Shen Lian more cautious, so when he met Li Wei yesterday, he didn't want to be involved too much.

But now it's different, Guan Lin's experience touched Shen Lian a lot.

If Li Wei is not punished, I don't know how many innocent girls will suffer from flying disasters.

For Shen Lian himself, Li Wei is also a big trouble.

Youzhou Kajun is a place where people eat people, if you are really transferred there, and you still have a fart, it would be good to survive.

What's more, Li Wei warned yesterday that he would kill him halfway!

Shen Lian was convinced of this, and Li Wei would definitely do what he said.

The case in front of you may be an opportunity to settle the trouble once and for all.

In Dayu, the murder is enough to bring down anyone!

Looking at Guan Xu, who was crying and crying beside him, extremely pitiful, thinking of the case in his previous life and his current situation, Shen Lian took a deep breath and said silently in his heart: Just fight! I'm a professional at solving cases! Men'er Qing.... Surveillance is retrieved first, then fingerprints and DNA are taken...

Wait, there is no surveillance in this world, and there is no biometric identification technology.

What's going on?

Shen Lian was depressed, the kind that was slightly desperate.

Guan Xu's house is a dilapidated house, and the old wooden door squeaks as it is pushed.

The front yard is small, but it is very tidy, and it can be seen that Guan Lin is very diligent.

Standing outside the door of the hall, Shen Lian was immediately attracted by the female corpse inside.

The shocking tragedy is worse than the girl in the case in his previous life.

"Don't move!" Shen Lian scolded Liu Baihu, who wanted to enter the house to check, for fear that he would destroy the scene, "Lord Baihu, be careful with your step, don't destroy the evidence." ”

After finishing speaking, Shen Lian cautiously walked into the door, and pretended to follow closely.

Liu Baihu stood in place and was stunned, stepping on the position that Shen Lian had stepped on and entered the house; The rest of the personnel looked at each other, choosing to stay outside.

It's really her!

Although the female corpse was injured on her face, Shen Lian recognized at a glance that it was the woman who escaped from the carriage and asked for help.

"It's really a beast!"

Even though the elderly servant was used to seeing all kinds of scenes, he was still shocked by the tragic situation of the female corpse in front of him.

The corpse has stiffened and has corpse spots.

After an autopsy, the conclusion was reached.

The time of death was about an hour, the woman was violently violated for a long time before her death, her body was severely torn, and there was a white liquid residue in her body, which was large and smelled of heather, which was by no means left by one person; The cracks of the fingernails of both fingers are pierced into the bamboo sticks, and the bamboo sticks are also penetrated in special places; Teeth shattered, the back of the head hit hard....

Shen Lian investigated further in the hall and found that there were bite marks and bloody broken teeth in the corner of the dining table; There was a hemp rope hanging from the beam, and the blood marks on it matched Guan Xu's wrist; There are signs that the door has been violently opened from the outside...

Judging from the whole, this is the first crime scene.

"Huh? What is it? Jade? ”

The man who examined the corpse suddenly asked.
