Chapter VII: Unsolved Cases in Beijing

saw that only Li Yiwei, Li Changhuai, Poria and Li Changci were left in the hospital.

Poria said to Li Yiwei: "I wonder if Master Li still remembers an incident fifteen years ago. ”

Li Yiwei frowned when he heard this: "But what about it? ”

Poria nodded, "Exactly." ”

Li Yiwei's heart tightened, and he said with some uncertainty: "But since that time, this matter has not happened for several years, Miss Poria, why are you so sure that Wang Er's death is related to that incident?" ”

Poria led Li Yiwei to Wang Er's corpse, "Lord Li, please take a look." ”

I saw Poria squatting down and lifting the placket in front of Wang Er.

"Ahh

Wang Er's chest actually broke a hole!

"Huai'er." Li Yiwei shouted his son's name worriedly.

When did Li Changhuai see such a scene, he covered his eyes and fled in a panic, not even paying attention to his father's call.

Li Yiwei's original intention was to let his son have a long experience, after all, he was already fifteen years old, although Chu Yi of the General's Mansion next door was one year older than Li Changhuai, but he had already taken up a position in the army, and he followed General Chu to the northwest to participate in the war last year.

But seeing Li Changhuai so embarrassed, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed in his heart, and felt that he was still too anxious.

But as soon as he turned around, he saw Li Changci on the steps so calm, and suddenly had a different emotion in his heart.

For a moment, I felt that Changhuai was still used to being pampered since he was a child, and he didn't have this daughter who had been wandering outside for more than ten years.

"Miss Poria smiled, Changhuai saw this kind of scene for the first time, and couldn't help but be a little frightened." Li Yiwei wanted to try his best to save his son's face.

Poria smiled at Li Yiwei, but turned her gaze to Li Changci not far away.

"Miss Changci is not chaotic in the face of danger, and she is very courageous."

Hearing this, Li Yiwei also looked at the daughter he didn't like, but he had to admit that the calmness on Li Changci's body at this time, even if it was him, was a little inferior.

Seeing that both of them were looking at her, Li Changci decided not to continue in a daze, she slowly walked down the steps and stood in front of Poria.

"Miss Poria Cocos, I wonder if you can tell me about what you said about fifteen years ago?"

Poria stood up and saluted Li Changci, her tone very calm.

"Miss Changci wants to hear it, so naturally I won't hide it, but this matter is really strange, and the slave doesn't know much."

"Miss Poria is modest, and I have heard a little about the things of the year, and in the end, Lord Duan was responsible for inquiring about this matter, and I heard that it was not in the matter after the Qin guards made a move, I don't know why, now it is in my house anyway, and I ask Miss Poria to solve my doubts." Li Yiwei raised the question in his heart on the side.

Seeing that both of them had questions about this matter, Poria didn't waste any more time and talked about what she knew.

Fifteen years ago, at the beginning of the beggar group in the capital, there was a beggar who died mysteriously, according to another beggar who reported to the official, the beggar who died was in good health, and he was still asking for food together the night before, but after one night he died in the alley, his face was pale, and his eyes were protruding.

Strangely, the beggar had a strange red stripe on the back of his neck, and there was a hole in his chest, and the heart inside was missing!

Although it was terrible to lose his heart, the dead was a beggar after all, and not many people would pay attention to it, and after the officers and soldiers searched for a few days and did not find the murderer, the matter was over.

As a result, every half month, a beggar dies for no reason, also with red stripes and no heart.

After the death of the third beggar, the beggars of the entire capital ran to the gate of Dali Temple and asked Xiaoqing Temple at that time to administer justice for them, and the matter was gradually known to everyone.

At first, everyone thought that the murderer used a kind of poison, and after poisoning the person, he would dig out the heart to satisfy his perverted hobby, so every deceased person would have red lines on the neck, but no matter how many doctors examined, no signs of poisoning were found in these people.

Later, an experienced servant speculated that the red lines on the neck may have been left by the killer who strangled the victim to death with some kind of rope or something.

But what puzzled everyone was why the victim turned pale for no reason, which is completely different from the symptoms of suffocation, and the marks of the hole in the chest did not seem to be caused by tools, but rather from someone who had passed his hand through the chest.

Although the Dali Temple investigated carefully, the murders still occurred.

Soon, the fourth victim and the fifth victim appeared one after another, and the people of the capital lived in fear all day long, and the Dali Temple did not find the murderer for a long time.

By the time the tenth victim appeared, the people no longer believed in the imperial court, and even rumors began to spread in Beijing, "There are demons in Beijing who like to eat people's hearts." ”

Many people began to walk out of the city.

When the capital couldn't keep people, the emperor finally got angry.

At the feet of the Son of Heaven, there was a phenomenon of monsters eating people, and even the phenomenon of people fleeing, which was intolerable to any emperor.

So the emperor issued an order, the matter by the king of Duan, the full supervision of the matter, not only so that all the officials of Dali Temple must catch the murderer of the matter no matter what, and sentenced to death, but also increase the number of forbidden troops, strengthen the inspection of the entire capital, once the perpetrator is found, kill on the spot.

As a result, the army could be seen patrolling the streets of the capital all the time, and sure enough, under strict defense, when the twelfth victim appeared, the clue was finally discovered.

According to the people present, that night, it happened that Qin Feng led several forbidden soldiers to patrol the streets, and suddenly heard a few screams, just near a few people, but unfortunately when they rushed over, the twelfth victim had already fallen in a pool of blood, and the murderer was carrying something into the alley.

Hearing the coming, the murderer quickly ran towards the depths of the alley, Qin Feng's eyes were fast, and he shot an arrow at the man, after the person was shot, he ran faster, several people hurriedly chased after him, after several changes, the murderer had already run into a dead end, but when the forbidden army chased him, he didn't find anyone, and only some blood stains were left on the ground.

However, Qin Feng and the others were sure that what they saw was a woman, and they found a leaf in the hands of the twelfth victim.

Since that time, this incident has never happened again, and over time, it has been designated as one of the unsolved cases in the capital.

"That's what I know, Lord Li, you see, the death of this second prince is the same as those people fifteen years ago, it must not be the work of Miss Changci."

Hearing such an inside story, Li Yiwei also knew that it was absolutely impossible for Li Chang to resign, fifteen years ago, she was only three years old, how could she kill twelve people in a row.

It's just that the situation is even worse now.

At present, what needs to be considered is whether Wang Er's death is a beginning, and whether the original person is going to make a comeback.

Li Yi weighed the rights, but still felt that it was safe to report the matter in the morning, after all, if such a murderous person was still secretly left in the mansion, wouldn't the lives of himself and his family be very dangerous.

"Miss Poria, this matter is very important, and Wang Er's matter needs to be bothered to go back to Duanwang's Mansion to explain at this time."

"Naturally, I'll go back to Duanwangfu immediately, just ......."

Before Poria finished speaking, she looked at Li Changci, obviously not worrying about leaving by herself, leaving Li Changci alone here.

Li Yiwei hurriedly answered: "Miss Poria, please rest assured, Chang Ci is my daughter after all, and I will naturally keep her safe in the house." ”

Li Changci knew that although Poria was ordered by Chu Lingshu to stay by his side, he could also feel Poria Cocos' concern for him, so he smiled at Poria and said, "Miss Poria can rest assured, I have been wandering outside since I was a child, and I still have some strength to protect myself." ”

Regarding Li Changci's strength, Li Yiwei and Poria both thought that she had learned a few times outside the school, but neither of them broke it.

In the end, Li Yiwei took Wang Er's body to Dali Temple to find Xiao Sizheng, while Poria rushed back to Duanwang's mansion to inform him of all this.

Maybe the two of them were used to Li Changci's calmness, and they didn't even think how abnormal it was to leave a woman in the courtyard of a dead person.

As a result, in less than a morning, only Li Changci was left in the entire Qinglian Courtyard.

And the news of the death of the Qinglian Courtyard spread in the Li family, and the people did not dare to enter the courtyard, so at noon, no one came to bring food to Li Changci.
