Qing Yuanqi case, seven

Today's Meicheng has a little rain, the raindrops are falling, the suburbs are full of the sound of rain hitting the leaves, and the rain also falls in the river, flooding the ripples of the beginning.

Meicheng, next to a large river.

"The deceased was found two hours earlier by a ferryman. The deceased is a man, who looks like he is about the age of confusion, because he was found in time and the water is not deep, so he has not been soaked in water for too long, nor has he been swollen, and his clothes are still there, and his face can be checked, but no one has come to report the case recently, so it is impossible to confirm the identity of the deceased at present. A catcher with a big knife at his waist said, the catcher was dressed in a robe, with a hat, and the appearance of a young man, with a resolute face and a long beard.

Accompanied by Song Ci, Song Gong came to the riverside on the outskirts of Meicheng, where the body was found, because the body was found in the suburbs, the conditions were limited, and there was no bed or anything......

People don't want to see it, either.

Song Ci was holding an oil-paper umbrella for his father, and it was raining a little heavily.

Song Ci was still dressed in white, and Song Gong's official uniform was never changed. Zhou Feifei, Er Fatty, Sheng Xia, Mao Mao, Yue Chang, Cui Ziyuan and Kong Jie, they also came with umbrellas because of curiosity, and everyone discussed their inner thoughts.

Yue Chang said in a low voice: "I just heard from them that the body was well preserved, and I don't know how it died. ”

"Did you drown or was you killed?" Cui Ziyuan said.

Midsummer nodded and said, "Both are possible. ”

Zhou Feifei touched his chin and pondered: "Is it too coincidental that Meicheng has been killed for two consecutive days? If this person was killed, is it possible that it is related to the death of that thief?"

"I always feel that if something is wrong, I feel weird. The second fat man Wu Qizheng also said. "What about you, what do you think?"

"Amitabha, sprinkle ...... The poor monk did not dare to speak falsely. The empty ring said.

"Why do you always think you're weird today?" Zhou Feifei said jokingly.

But the empty ring dodged his eyes and did not pick up everyone's topic.

Everyone didn't care about the difference in the empty ring, but the expression of the empty ring was still seen by Zhou Feifei.

At this time, the rain stopped, and on the other side, Song Gong planned to conduct an autopsy in person.

This attracted everyone, Yue Chang stepped forward and asked, "Lord Song, bother, we are also curious about this case, and we think that this may be related to the death of that thief, dare to ask if we can help solve the case together?"

The catcher on the side was about to stop it, but at this moment, Song Ci on the side spoke first: "Yes, father, they are all knowledgeable and strange people, and their suspicions are not unfounded, so let them help us together." ”

Song Gong is not a rigid person, I saw him think about it, nodded and said: "It's okay, you need to start from all aspects to solve the case, if you have any ideas, just say it." ”

Everyone clasped their fists in thanks.

Under everyone's gaze, Song Gong stretched out his hand and uncovered the broken straw mat.

Midsummer was a little afraid to look at it, although it was not the first time she had seen a corpse, and she had made the best preparations, but the moment the straw mat was uncovered, Midsummer still showed a very sad expression, and her stomach was tumbling

And Cui Ziyuan, who was surprisingly bold, had no waves, and was carefully observing the dead body under the straw mat at this time, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

The corpse was soaked in water, so it was white all over, but it was still yellow, its eyes and mouth were slightly open, and its limbs were stretched.

Song Gong probed very carefully from head to toe, only to see that he even moved his hand, untied the man's clothes, pressed the man's abdomen with his hand, pinched the man's mouth, looked at it carefully, and even turned over to inspect it, and then stopped.

"How?" Song Ci hurriedly asked. ”

I said categorically: "This man did not drown. ”

Everyone was puzzled, and Zhou Feifei even asked, "Why did your lord say this?"

Although it is only a temporary view, Song Gong has many years of experience in judging cases, and if he is not sure, he will definitely not draw conclusions at will. I saw him take the white cloth that came from the courier next to him, wiped his hands, and said: " The most powerful evidence is that this person does not have too much water in his abdomen, and the person who is really drowning will definitely drink a lot of water due to suffocation, which makes it difficult to breathe, that is, the water enters the chest and lungs and dies, but I see that although this person has mud and sand between his fingernails, which is in line with the image of drowning, there is not a lot of water in his abdomen, let alone water into his chest and lungs, so this person should have been seriously injured before he died, and then fell into the water, and he was not dead when he fell into the water, because of the struggle and the nails were filled with mud and sand, and finally, the cause of death was not drowning, but injury and death!"

This reasoning combined with Song Gong's years of experience was really impressive.

"Move the person back to the morgue first, and confirm the identity as soon as possible, the person's enemies and those who have recently come to the river need to be carefully interrogated. ”

"Yes!" the jailer ordered, and hurriedly beckoned someone to move the body back.

"Eh," Song Gong sighed. "Ci'er, there is one thing that is very strange, I don't know if you can see it. ”

"Wounds! There were no wounds on the man's body. Song Ci said.

Song Gong nodded, "Eh, it seems...... It's getting more and more confusing. Song Gong touched his beard and said.

On the other side, Zhou Feifei transmitted his voice into the secret: "Did you feel something?"

"Dead air!" Yue Chang said.

......

The rain is still falling.

Meicheng Teahouse.

Although so many strange things have happened one after another, but the teahouse still has to do business after all, at this time, Zhou Feifei and they really have nothing to do, and their mobile phones are out of battery, so they have to come here to listen to the news.

They came in without paying, and the gatekeeper remembered them.

Remember that gold bar, too.

"Dare to ask, Zhou Feifei, Wu Qizheng, Mao Mao and Midsummer are a few guest officers?" a fellow came to their private seat and asked.

"What's going on?" Zhou Feifei asked.

"The shopkeeper has something to discuss, he said, if you want to know the answer, please come with me, rest assured, he knows that he can't hurt you. The guy said.

"Answer?What is the answer?" Zhou Feifei had a question in his heart, got up, and stepped forward with Maomao in his arms.

The second fat man smiled at Mai Weizi and said, "I'll be back soon." ”

No one could have imagined that behind the teahouse, there was actually a mechanism, and the guy just turned the flower pot slightly, and a secret door opened. The guy made a gesture of please, and said, "I can't know the secret inside, I'm only responsible for bringing everyone here, the shopkeeper said, there is no danger inside, if you can trust him, please do it." With that, the man turned and left.

"I want to go in and have a look. Mao Mao said, "That person is very interesting, I would like to see what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd." ”

"It doesn't matter what medicine he is, his cultivation is not as high as ours, what can he do with us?"

"You really are, although it is prudent to walk the rivers and lakes, but you are not so distrustful. After Zhou Feifei finished speaking, he also walked in with Maomao.

Midsummer didn't say anything, just followed everyone closely.
