Chapter 245: A Good Show That Has to Be Delivered to the Door!
“…… It is indeed Wang San recommended by the villain to the old lady, Wang San is simple, very hardworking, never cheats and cheats in things, and is strong and not easy to get sick, and is most suitable to take care of the master at this time. ”
The housekeeper Ma Yuan led the way for Lin Feng while explaining Wang San's situation to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng nodded, Ma Yuan's words were no different from Mrs. Wang, he thought for a while and said, "The people in your mansion, except for Wang San, are there no other people who are also suitable to take care of Wang Shaoqing?" ”
Ma Yuan shook his head and said: "Not really, in addition to Wang San, there are also two people who are in a similar situation to Wang San, but they all had some tasks that were not completed at that time, so the villain recommended Wang San." ”
Lin Feng bowed slightly, Wang San was not the only unique person, but because other people had a task on their side, Wang San became a must-choose.
And Wang Jian must have been killed and dropped in these two days, but Wang San has not reacted...... Did Wang San really not find out, or was it something else?
The real murderer's plan was so thorough, Lin Feng didn't think that he would ignore this only person who took care of Wang Jian.
So...... This Wang San, I'm afraid it's also a little special......
While thinking, the butler suddenly stopped.
"Lin Sizheng, we've arrived."
Listening to the housekeeper's voice, Lin Feng's thoughts retracted, he looked ahead, and saw them stopped in front of a wing room in the backyard.
At this time, the door of the wing room was closed, and there were two officials guarding the room.
The number of these servants is greater than that of the king's wife.
"Huh......" The housekeeper made a soft voice: "Before, no one was looking at Wang San, only one official stood not far away and stared at all the doors, and no one was allowed to leave the room, why are there two officials outside Wang San's room watching alone?" ”
When Lin Feng heard this, his eyes flashed.
No one looked at Wang San before, but now there are two people guarding the door.
So it seems...... Zhou Helin should have also judged that Wang Jian's death was not on that night, but in the two days when he was sick and alone.
However, Lin Feng was not surprised, let alone anxious because of this, Zhou Helin was a person with rich experience in detective cases, and he had also solved unsolved and difficult cases in his hands, so Zhou Helin was surprised if he couldn't judge these under his own prompts.
But judging these can only be regarded as the first step in this case, and it is still unknown who will reach the end faster.
"Let's go."
Lin Feng didn't bother with the affairs of the servants, and walked directly to the room: "Go and meet Wang San." ”
But before he arrived at the door, he was stopped by a servant: "Lin Sizheng, Zhou County Commander is interrogating Wang San in the room, no one is allowed to disturb him, and I ask Lin Sizheng to forgive me." ”
"Zhou County's order is inside?" Lin Feng raised his eyebrows.
The official nodded with his hand: "Zhou County's order has specially instructed that even if the sky falls, it can't disturb him to investigate the case...... Therefore, I hope that Rinji Temple understands. ”
"Father-in-law, this ......" Zhao Fifteen looked at Lin Feng and asked Lin Feng's opinion.
Lin Feng shook his head, he didn't embarrass the officials, thought about it, and said: "Since the Zhou County Order is here, then let's go elsewhere first, and when the Zhou County Order is finished, we will come back." ”
As he spoke, he turned around without any mud or water.
The matter of questioning witnesses is first-come, first-served, and queue up according to the rules, Lin Feng is not short of this time, and he does have a lot of places he wants to check.
For example, the bedroom at the time of the crime that night, such as the room where Wang Jian was alone for two days, and the place where Wang Jian's body was placed.
There is a possibility of finding more clues in these places, so he doesn't have to waste time waiting for Zhou Helin at all, and when he finishes turning these places, I believe Zhou Helin should finish asking.
"Steward Ma."
Lin Feng looked at Ma Yuan and said, "I don't know where your master's body is stored?" Take this official to see Wang Shaoqing. ”
Ma Yuan hurriedly said: "Because the case has not been clarified, the body of the old man has not yet been put into the ground, and it is now being placed in the temporary mourning hall." ”
"Lead the way."
"Please ...... from this side of the Rinji Temple"
Soon, under the leadership of Ma Yuan, Lin Feng came to the main hall of the palace.
The main hall, which is usually used to entertain distinguished guests, is now covered with white silk, and a dark red coffin is placed in the center of the main hall.
There were two guards outside the door of the main hall, and ordinary people couldn't get close to this place at all.
Lin Feng relied on brushing his face and entered the main hall with strict guards.
The housekeeper secretly glanced back at the official guarding outside, and whispered: "Before, the villain and the lady wanted to come to burn incense and paper for the master, but they didn't allow it at all, so that the master lay here for five days, and we couldn't mourn the master." ”
Lin Feng said: "Zhou County Ling is also afraid that the real murderer will mix in, destroy the corpse, and delay the investigation of the case, Wang Shaoqing, as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, believes that under Jiuquan, he will understand you, and after finding out the real murderer, it is not too late for you to burn paper and incense for Wang Shaoqing." ”
Lin Feng didn't think there was anything wrong with Zhou Helin doing this, of course, if it was him, it would be more humane, he would make sure that Mrs. Wang and they could not touch Wang Jian's corpse, and then limit an area for them to burn paper and kneel in this area.
In addition to the law, there is also love, Lin Feng believes that the law is never cold, and the existence of the law is also for the sake of a warmer world.
The housekeeper thought that Lin Feng would complain about Zhou Helin with him, but he didn't expect Lin Feng to agree with Zhou Helin, he nodded hurriedly and said; "What Lin Sizheng is saying is that the villain is not thoughtful."
Lin Feng glanced at the housekeeper and said in his heart: "You are not thoughtful, you are just too thoughtful." ”
The housekeeper knew that he and Zhou Helin were now in a competitive relationship, so he deliberately said Zhou Helin's inhumanity in front of him, so that he could share the same hatred with him, and it seemed that they were all on the opposite side of Zhou Helin, and the direction was the same, so as to gain a better perception of himself.
This housekeeper is really a good person...... It's a pity that competition is competition, and Lin Feng doesn't have the habit of saying bad things about others behind his back.
Coming to the coffin, Lin Feng looked at Zhao Fifteen and said, "Open the coffin." ”
Zhao Fifteen took a deep breath, pressed his hands on the heavy coffin board, and then his muscles exploded, pushing forward hard-
I heard the sound of "quack", and the dark red heavy coffin lid was pushed open little by little.
Wang Jian in the coffin slowly came into view.
Lin Feng came to the coffin, looked inward, and the first thing he saw was Wang Jian's pale face that already had obvious corpse spots floating on it.
In late autumn, the weather was already cold, so even after five days, the corruption of Wang Jian's corpse was not serious, and it basically remained the same as when he died.
Wang Jian was wearing a shirt with obvious traces of water stains, and it seems that Wang Jian was still wearing the clothes he wore when he was found dead that night.
Lin Feng looked at Wang Jian's face, only to see Wang Jian's eyes bulging, his eyes were white, his mouth was open, and his expression had an obviously distorted and painful expression.
"The expression is twisted and painful...... Was you abused before you died? Or is it that the real murder made Wang Jian feel pain. ”
"Huh...... It's ......"
Lin Feng suddenly lowered his body, and his fingers broke Wang Jian's head, allowing himself to see Wang Jian's neck clearly.
At this time, Lin Feng narrowed his eyes: "Wang Jian was strangled to death?" ”
I saw that there was a very fine strangulation mark on Wang Jian's neck, and the strangulation marks were parallel to the back, and finally gathered, which was obviously a trace of being strangled from the back of the neck.
"So fine, what is it? String? But such a thin rope, so strong, can an adult be strangled? ”
Lin Feng frowned, pondering in his heart: "And Wang Jian's heart has been dug out, and the real murderer has to dig out his heart left and right, why not directly pierce Wang Jian's heart with a knife to kill people?" Wouldn't that be more convenient and quicker? Strangling from the back is far less swift and convenient than stabbing to death. ”
"Could it be that after the murder, he used a rope to strangle the traces, trying to cover up the real cause of Wang Jian's death?"
Lin Feng thought as he carefully examined the strangulation marks on Wang Jian's neck, the strangulation marks were very strong, and there were obvious wounds with flesh and skin rubbing nearby, judging from the condition of the wounds, it didn't look like they were caused after death.
After thinking about it, Lin Feng stretched out his hand and grabbed Wang Jian's hand, he looked at the nails on Wang Jian's hand, and his eyes flashed slightly.
"The nail of the middle finger has bent marks, and there is a wisp of flesh in the nail, which is consistent with the situation when someone suddenly strangles and subconsciously reaches out to grab something like the rope that strangles the neck...... His nails were bent as a result, and there was a scratch near his strangulation marks that matched the flesh in his nails. ”
"Other features of death, lordosis of the eyeball, nasal condition, are also consistent with the cause of death of asphyxiation...... In this way, it seems that he was indeed strangled to death. ”
Lin Feng determined the cause of Wang Jian's death, but he was even more puzzled...... Obviously they are ready to dig out their hearts, but sooner or later they will have to stab their hearts anyway, so why do they want to kill people by strangulation?
And in the process of strangling Wang Jian, Wang Jian's hands were obviously not tied, and he obviously had the ability to resist, wasn't the real murderer afraid to get away with it and was escaped by Wang Jian?
"Something is wrong, there must be eleven points out of 10!"
Lin Feng has always used the method of logical reasoning, and he believes that any behavior of anyone has the logic that must be done in it.
But Wang Jian's death is obviously inconsistent with his inference about the real murderer.
This shows that either you have neglected something, or you have a problem with some of your judgments.
"Where exactly is the problem......
Lin Feng frowned and thought as he untied Wang Jian's clothes and went to check on the wound in Wang Jian's heart.
Sure enough, as the dossier said, there was an obvious hole in Wang Jian's heart, and the back could be seen from the front.
And there are obvious traces of ironing and sticking at the wound.
The autopsy cut open a part, allowing Lin Feng to see the thin threads that sutured the wound inside.
Looking at the appearance of the thin threads interspersed at random, Lin Feng said slowly: "It seems that the real murderer should only be able to use needles and threads, but he is not good at this." ”
The housekeeper couldn't bear to look at Wang Jian, and after listening to Lin Feng's words, he stretched out his head to take a look, and then said: "That's better than some people, such as villains, who don't know how to use needles and threads at all." ”
Lin Feng turned his head to look at the housekeeper's clothes, and said with a smile: "The subordinates of your palace have uniform clothes, even if they are worn out, you don't need to sew and mend them, and you naturally don't need to know how to sew and thread." ”
The housekeeper nodded again and again: "That's right, the villain only needs to manage the subordinates and serve the old lady well, and the rest really don't need to be considered." ”
Lin Feng retracted his gaze and continued to look at Wang Jian's corpse, he found that Wang Jian's arms, waist and abdomen, legs and feet had some bump scars.
Depending on the shiny appearance of the wound and the condition of the wound, there are signs of "life reaction", which is consistent with the characteristics of the injury before death.
"Is this a fight with someone in your life? Or, when he was strangled by the real murderer, not only were his hands not tied, but his feet were not tied, so he resisted, and in the resistance, he bumped into a hard object and left a scar? ”
Lin Feng's right thumb and index finger subconsciously rubbed, which was a subconscious behavior when the brain was running rapidly.
The more information he got from Wang Jian's corpse, the more strange Lin Feng felt, and it wasn't even strange, but a contradiction!
There is an obvious contradiction with some of the clues he got before!
This made him realize that some clues may not be as simple as they see.
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes, there was a dark tide surging at the bottom of his eyes, and he suddenly sneered: "It's really cunning enough, this is digging holes for us everywhere to mislead?" ”
"What?"
The housekeeper didn't hear Lin Feng's words clearly, so he couldn't help but speak.
Lin Feng shook his head, he carefully examined Wang Jian's corpse again, and after making sure that there was nothing missing from the corpse, he asked Zhao Shifu to re-close the coffin lid.
He walked out slowly and said, "Steward Ma, take me to the room where your master lived alone when he was sick." ”
Ma Yuan nodded hurriedly: "Lin Si is here, please ......"
It didn't take long for Lin Feng to come to a side room in the main room in the backyard.
There was no guard in this room, but there was a guard in the courtyard of the backyard, and the officer's eyes were always looking at these rooms, so if anyone came in or out, they would be spotted as well.
Looking at the location of this room, Lin Feng said, "Steward Ma, the location of this room seems to be a little off, right?" ”
Ma Yuan nodded hurriedly: "It's more partial, but this is to let the master rest quietly." ”
"It's quite quiet, the location is so remote, I can't wait for the sound to come." Lin Feng agreed.
Ma Yuan smiled and pushed open the door for Lin Feng.
Entering the door, Lin Feng found that although this room was the most side, the room was very spacious, and the decoration inside was very exquisite, obviously not always empty.
He said, "This room is usually occupied? ”
Ma Yuan said: "If there are relatives of the old lady who come to spend the night, it will be arranged in this room." ”
"I see, it's for relatives."
No wonder this room is so well decorated.
Lin Feng looked into the room and found that this room was divided into two rooms, the inner and the outside, and the outer room had tables, stools, cabinets and other furniture, all available.
A bookshelf leans against the innermost wall, the bookshelf is full of all kinds of books, on the left side of the bookshelf, there is a one-person high blue and white porcelain, and on the right wall, there is a bow and a sword, giving people a very unique feeling, as if living in this room is full of humanities and martial arts.
On the other walls of the room, there are also calligraphy and paintings, the characters are famous calligraphy, and the paintings are landscape paintings.
At this time, the room is very clean and orderly.
Lin Feng's gaze carefully swept over the outer room, the floor, the walls, the bookshelves, the vase, the bow and the sword......
He said, "After your master's accident, has no one been in or out of this room?" ”
The housekeeper nodded hurriedly: "No one came in or out, everyone was locked in the room by Zhou County's order, and they couldn't get out at all." ”
"So it's always so clean and tidy?"
"Yes."
Lin Feng bowed slightly, and glanced at the room again, his eyes slightly deep.
Then he stepped into the inner chamber.
Compared to the ornate decoration of the outer room, the inner room is a bit ordinary.
The relatively large bed, the dressing cabinet next to the bed, and the wooden hanger with vermilion lacquer carved auspicious cloud pattern on the side can hang clothes.
The quilt on the bed was neatly stacked on one side, and on the dresser was a food box, next to which was a recumbent tiger-shaped incense burner.
Lin Feng glanced at the neat bed, and thought in his heart: "Before leaving, the real murderer folded the quilt so neatly because he loved to be clean and tidy...... Or is it for some other reason? ”
After thinking about it, Lin Feng grabbed the folded quilt and unfolded it directly.
His eyes carefully examined the quilt.
The housekeeper looked at Lin Feng's strange behavior and couldn't help but say, "Lin Sizheng, what are you?" ”
I saw Lin Feng flipping the quilt back and forth, then shook his head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I'm used to not letting go of any details when investigating cases, so it looks strange sometimes." ”
He folded the quilt again and looked back at the dresser.
opened the food box on the dresser, and saw that there were bowls and chopsticks in it, and there were still some residues of things left on the plates, Lin Feng said: "This is the meal you sent to Wang Shaoqing?" ”
The butler nodded: "That's right." ”
"So many meals have been eaten, you never thought that Wang Shaoqing, who was sick, could have such a good appetite?" Lin Feng squinted his eyes and asked.
The housekeeper hurriedly said: "The meals I sent to the master before have not been eaten, and this is the only time it has been eaten...... And the old man always asked Wang San to put down the meal, and then take the food box away when the next meal was delivered, so he didn't hide it from Lin Sizheng, and the villain still knew that the food in the original food box was eaten. ”
"Every time?"
Lin Feng raised his eyebrows: "You mean to say that Wang San brought food to your master, and he didn't eat it in front of Wang San in person?" ”
The housekeeper nodded: "Sometimes the old man is not feeling well and doesn't want to eat, and sometimes the old man is afraid of infecting Wang San, so he doesn't let Wang San accompany him." ”
Hearing this, Lin Feng nodded thoughtfully.
He put down the food box, looked at the incense burner on the side, opened the lid of the incense burner, Lin Feng found that there was no incense ash in it, he said, "You lords usually like to use the incense burner?" ”
Ma Yuan nodded: "My lord likes the smell of rosin, and he likes to order some when he reads books, deals with official business, and rests." ”
In the Tang Dynasty, carpets and incense burners have almost become standard.
"There is no incense ash in the incense burner, did your master not light it when he was sick, or was it cleaned up by Wang San?" Lin Feng asked.
Ma Yuan shook his head: "This villain is not clear, since the master lived here, the villain has never come in again." ”
Lin Feng bowed slightly.
He lowered the lid of the censer and turned his gaze to look back at the inner room.
Looking at the neat beds in the inner room, looking at the floor without the slightest dust on the ground, looking at the neatly arranged hangers and dressers, after pondering for a moment, he said, "Let's go, go to your master's bedroom." ”
Several people left the room where Wang Jian lived alone, and were just about to walk towards the bedroom where Wang Jian's body was found, when suddenly, Lin Feng heard someone shouting to him.
"Rinjimasa! Oh no! ”
Lin Feng paused, turned around to look, and saw the gossip expert Li Haomiao walking over quickly.
His expression was solemn, his face was a little bad, and he whispered something directly in Lin Feng's ear.
After finishing speaking, he hurriedly looked at Lin Feng and said, "Lin Sizheng, what should I do?" ”
When Zhao Fifteen and the housekeeper saw this scene, they all looked at Lin Feng with some curiosity and blankness, they didn't know what was going on, judging from Li Haomiao's performance, it didn't seem to be a good thing.
Seeing that Li Haomiao was so serious and dignified, the hearts of both of them also subconsciously hung up.
But who knows, after Lin Feng heard this, he shook his head very calmly: "Don't worry about him." ”
"What?"
Li Haomiao was stunned for a moment: "But he said he was ......"
"Nope!"
Lin Feng shook his head directly.
"No?" Li Haomiao looked at Lin Feng in a daze.
Lin Feng said: "I said that he didn't solve the case, do you believe him or me?" ”
Li Haomiao blinked, and was about to speak, when he was suddenly interrupted by the footsteps of a servant.
I saw that the official who had led the way for Lin Feng ran over quickly, and after he came to Lin Feng, he gasped for breath, and his face was full of joy and self-satisfaction that he couldn't hide, and said: "Lin Sizheng, Zhou County ordered the little one to invite Lin Sizheng to pass." ”
"Let the forest temple pass? Is Zhou County Ling already asking Wang San? The butler asked suspiciously.
Seeing that the official secretly glanced at Lin Feng, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and said: "Asking Wang San for such a trivial matter, how can it be worth asking Zhou County Order to invite Lin Sizheng to go over...... The reason why Zhou County Ling asked the villain to invite Lin Sizheng was because ...... He's already solved the case! ”
"What!?"
The housekeeper's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked shocked and surprised: "Zhou County's order has already solved the case?" Are you saying he's found the real culprit? ”
Zhao Fifteen also looked at the official in disbelief.
I saw that the official chin was slightly raised, and he looked proud: "Zhou County Ling has solved countless unsolved and difficult cases, and this case will naturally not stump him...... That's right, he's already found the real culprit. ”
Saying that, he looked at Lin Feng, with an unconcealed joy of victory in his eyes, and pretended to sigh: "Lin Sizheng, it's a pity that Zhou County ordered Xianlin Temple to solve the case in one step." ”
Looking at the smug appearance of the servant, and thinking back to the conversation between Lin Feng and Li Haomiao, Zhao Shifu finally understood what Li Haomiao meant by "not good".
Li Haomiao was the first to know the fact that Zhou Helin had solved the case, so he hurriedly came to inform his father-in-law......
But if I heard correctly, my father-in-law seems to have said ...... No! No case solved!
Zhou Helin said that the case was solved, but his father-in-law said no......
What's going on here?
He couldn't help but look at Lin Feng, Li Haomiao also stared at Lin Feng, the official didn't know about the conversation between Lin Feng and Li Haomiao just now, and he also looked at Lin Feng with a smug expression.
Then, they saw Lin Feng sigh and shook his head: "I didn't want to join in this excitement, but since Zhou County Decree took the initiative to invite, I can't save Zhou County's face, so I'll go through it myself, I really want to know how Zhou County Decree solved the case." ”
When the official heard this, he immediately smiled, what he was waiting for was this, he hurriedly said: "Lin Si is please, Zhou County Order is waiting for Lin Si Zheng." ”
Seeing this, Zhao Fifteen couldn't help but whisper: "Father-in-law, is it really okay?" ”
Lin Feng shook his head with a smile and said, "Believe me or him?" ”
"Of course I believe you."
"Then let's go......"
Lin Feng said slowly as he walked: "This is a good opportunity to understand the real murderer, and then substitute the perspective of the real murderer...... Watch a good show that has to be delivered to your door. ”
