Bao Maodian's body was found in his bedroom, it was completely unrecognizable, his clothes were burned and everything was burned, and his identity was identified by a wrench on his finger.

Dieshui County is only a small county town, Pingxin embroidery workshop is big, the silk produced every year will not only be sent to the capital as a tribute to the emperor, but also let many people in Dieshui County eat, such as silkworm raising, weaving, to provide food, clothing, housing and transportation for traders.

Therefore, many people are very familiar with the people in the embroidery workshop, and they have an impression of what they wear and what they wear.

A restaurant shopkeeper who often brought food to Bao Maodian was called to identify the body.

"This face...... This small face is really unrecognizable. The shopkeeper was embarrassed and said: "But this wrench is indeed the shopkeeper's, and in the small impression, he has been wearing it, and it will definitely not be wrong." ”

A jade wrench, the water head is very good, the ice species floats flowers, and it burned in the fire for a night and a half days, and it didn't crack.

The wrench finger was glued to the blackened finger, and if you wanted to take it off forcefully, you would have to get a thick layer on it.

"Cui Chengzuo." Bu Changbei said: "Although this is Bao Maodian's wrench, can you confirm that this corpse is the owner of the wrench?" ”

Personal belongings are not the same as the person.

Bu Changbei asked, thinking that he was suspicious of this person.

Cui Xiao tried to be as careful as possible, but he still inevitably took off the wrench roughly, dipped it in water with a handkerchief, and wiped the charred black muscle and skin tissue on it.

Then took the corpse's other hand.

This wrench, Bao Maodian is not worn on the thumb, but on the index finger.

Cui Xiao pinched the index finger of Bao Maodian's other hand and asked the restaurant shopkeeper who had identified the wrench just now.

"This Bao Maodian, is he fat?"

The restaurant shopkeeper shook his head.

"Is the hand thick or thin?"

The shopkeeper of the restaurant was asked.

"How do you say that?" The shopkeeper frowned and said, "It's not particularly coarse, it's not particularly thin......"

It's a normal person, and it's not a perennial manual worker, but it's not a scholar's slender fingers.

Cui Xiao simply called several errand officers and asked them to stretch out their hands.

"Look at it." Cui smiled and said: "Bao Maodian's hand, which one is it like?" ”

The hotel shopkeeper looked at it for a long time, and it felt as if he didn't feel anything.

Fortunately, there were a lot of people at this time, so Cui Xiao asked him to watch a few more.

Even Bu Changbei and his subordinates, who were standing on the side, also gave their hands.

Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper of the restaurant fell in love with Bu Changbei's hand at a glance.

"This ...... This adult's fingers are quite similar. But adults have white skin, and Bao Maodian's hands are not as white as adults, the thickness is about the same, and the skin is about the same, but they are not as good-looking as adults. ”

Bu Changbei only listened to the black line on his face.

He had a feeling that he had been molested, but that the flirting was not obvious.

But it's hard to say anything, of course he knows that the hotel shopkeeper is just talking about things, borrowing him a gut, and he doesn't dare to be disrespectful to himself.

Cao Xianling called a few people who were familiar with Bao Maodian and asked them to identify them.

Identifying fingers and recognizing facial features is not the same, it is not so easy, everyone hesitated and discussed, and finally determined that Buchangbei's fingers are indeed the most similar to Bao Maodian.

Bu Changbei is also very calm, you say it's like it, just look at it, what else can you do. He is a big man, can he still twist and pinch?

Cui Xiao then asked, "My lord, can I pinch your fingers?" ”

Pinch it casually, otherwise what else can you do?

Cui Xiao was not polite at the moment, and he was about to get started immediately.

Buchangbei still couldn't help but block it.

Cui Xiao was stunned for a moment, reacted immediately, even said sorry, took off the gloves that had been touching the corpse just now, and stretched out his hand respectfully.

Bu Changbei gave her a reserved handle.

Touch it, whatever.

Cui Xiao actually pinched it twice, and then took the wrench that had been wiped clean and put it on Buchangbei.

"This corpse is not right." Cui Xiao said: "Bao Maodian has worn a wrench for more than ten years, and the size must be very appropriate." But the fingers of this corpse, although the flesh and skin have been burned, but judging from the bones, the flesh covered with flesh is thicker than Bao Maodian's fingers. He should wear this ring very, very tightly, and he should cut his finger out one by one. ”

Bu Changbei's voice was very cold: "You said that this corpse is not Bao Maodian, how sure are you?" ”

Cui Xiao said wait a minute, returned to Bao Maodian's corpse, and opened his mouth.

Cui smiled and said, "Bring a torch." ”

The sky is already a little dark, and the autumn days have begun to be short, and it is still a little cold.

Someone hurriedly came over with a torch, Cui Xiao took the torch and looked carefully at the corpse's mouth.

No matter how badly burned the corpse was, the inside of the mouth was always intact, and the tongue and teeth were not damaged.

"It's really not Bao Maodian." Cui Xiao said: "Bao Maodian is the owner of the embroidery workshop, he has a solid net worth, fine clothes and food, and he eats very fine food. But this corpse, the teeth are very worn, and it can be seen that the food it usually eats is very coarse. ”

It's no secret that Bao Maodian has a taste for food. The chef who used to work in the embroidery workshop, and the shopkeeper of the restaurant he frequented, can be sure that he is a person who is well-dressed and frequented, and he is very good at enjoying it.

Everyone had never heard such a statement, but Cui Xiao was very serious.

This corpse is the same as the previous one, and there is also black ash in its eyes, and it is reasonable to infer that it was also drugged and lost its mind and burned alive.

A substitute for the dead.

It is not known how many substitutes there are among the thirty-two corpses.

There are even two children's corpses, which look the same size as Bao Maodian's children, but they are not Bao Maodian's children, no one can say.

Finally, Cao County's order said: "Could it be that Bao Maodian committed a crime and escaped, afraid of being caught, and found someone to confess the crime, and wanted to fake his death to escape?" ”

And Buchang came all the way from the capital to arrest people, but when he arrived, he had already burned to death. No wonder his face was so dark at the time.

Let the commander of the Jinyi Guard personally arrest people, this Bao Maodian's crime seems to be not small.

Bu Changbei's face is also a little dark now, and he ordered his subordinates.

"Leshan, Tonghe."

There are a total of fifteen people in Buchangbei's party, of which twelve are his subordinates. The other two were dressed slightly differently from the twelve, and Cui Xiao analyzed that they should be cronies.

Bu Changbei said: "Wanted Bao Maodian, let our people in." ”

The two responded.

Just when everyone was in the clouds, Xi Leshan took out a bamboo tube from his arms and lit it, and a green light rushed to the sky.

The night was deep, and the green fireworks were roaring into the sky, and Cui Xiao's eyes followed all the way, muttering, "It's so beautiful." ”

It's pitiful, I haven't seen anyone set off fireworks in this poor country for most of the past half a year. The Chinese New Year is coming up in a few months, and this year's New Year must be very sad.

Buchangbei was close, and when he heard Cui Xiao's small voice, he glanced at her and didn't speak. I was probably thinking that a girl is a girl, even if it's a girl who does a job, she still sees new things with a beautiful eye.

Half an hour later, a neat team, with hundreds of people, entered the county seat.

Cao Xianling looked at the tall horse, only to feel a heart attack, his legs trembled, and he couldn't breathe.
