The two of them discussed the case in a very professional manner. Li Qingcha said: "According to this idea, let's find the body in the backyard first." The yamen runners were shocked when they heard this. They thought, there are more than 20 corpses here, how can their distribution be determined just by the knife marks? Isn't this a joke? Sun Wei didn't think there was anything wrong. After the on-site inspection at the Hong family just now, he already knew how powerful Li Qingcha was, and it would not be excessive for him to do any magical thing. I saw three people busy. "The child died in the backyard by default..." "The fatal wound on this corpse was on the right chest. It was caused by a stab wound. The wound was slightly wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, which is consistent with the characteristics of a Yingsang Bao steel knife." "This man was killed by a chop. The knife strike was heavily weighted towards the wrist, which is a characteristic of Yingsang's swordplay."
…… Everyone was stunned. Not long after, it was determined that the twelve bodies were placed in the backyard of the Hong family. Xiang Nanyu did not hesitate and lowered his voice. "The wounds inflicted after death were not made by a steel-clad knife." "It is true. Where are the other bodies?" "I just took a quick look and the fatal wounds are very similar, which means the murderer who entered through the front door was armed with the same weapon." As an expert in swords, Xiang Nanyu was very confident. "I've checked it. The width doesn't vary much. The wounds were caused by stabbing, stirring, and chopping. Horizontal cuts are rare and not fatal. Based on this, it can be inferred that it was a sword wound." As she spoke, the girl lowered her voice. "But there is one that is different. The fatal wound was not caused by a sword. I think... it looks like poison." Li Qingcha's eyes lit up. "I thought it wouldn't be so easy, but it turned out to be so easy." "Have you guessed it?" "That's about right. First they faked the wound on the body, and then they were in a hurry to burn the body to destroy the evidence. If it wasn't to cover up the extra body, what else could it be for?" Hearing this, everyone present shuddered. There was one more person inexplicably involved in the murder case... Who is this deceased person? Why was he killed?
Sometimes, death is not that scary; what is more scary is the disappearance that is unknown to outsiders. Li Qingcha sighed, "If it were me, I would never do that. If I were to do it, I would do it thoroughly." Xiang Nanyu couldn't help but be curious. "How thoroughly?" "It's simple. Just cut up the bodies of the Hong family members and randomly match their arms and thighs. Even for me, it would probably take me ten days or half a month to figure out who the extra person is." "..." Xiang Nanyu thought that if his cousin committed a crime, it would be impossible to solve it. "devil." Li Qingcha couldn't help but smile. The method she mentioned is actually the core trick of a mystery novel, "Astrology Murder Magic". Many TV dramas, such as "Young Justice Bao", have paid tribute to it. So, there is nothing wrong with the devil, because the novel begins with "I am possessed by the devil." Li Qingcha whispered in the girl's ear, "Don't worry, I, a devil, will always stand on the side of the human race, don't be afraid~" My brother's breath is so hot. Wet, Right ear droops. Xiang Nanyu: ... Her cheeks turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. Gong Lianxue watched from the side and whispered in a low voice: "Little Pumpkin, I'll return the favor I owe you." Chapter 204: A show of force Based on the monthly tickets and rewards, I will start updating tomorrow. ￥￥￥￥￥￥￥￥￥￥￥￥ Xiang Nanyu pushed Li Qingcha away. "Cousin, don't bite...ah...I mean, don't snort." Li Qingcha: ￣□￣｜｜ Why does it sound like I'm farting when I say this? She coughed lightly and turned to Sun Wei.
"Sir, since we have found another body, the first and most important thing should be to identify him, right? In short, we definitely cannot treat him as a member of the Hong family." Sun Wei was a little hesitant. Judging from the wounds, this body was definitely not "created" by the murderers of the Hong family massacre. but, "Use this as evidence to conclude that they are not members of the Hong family..." "Who said it was evidence?" "what?" "How can the wound be used as evidence? At most, it is a clue, indicating that there is something suspicious about the body. However, if there is a suspicious point, it must be investigated, isn't that right?" Li Qingcha had a smile on his face. Sun Wei sighed. "Sir, you are right. I will go find the coroner right away." "Sir, the autopsy is indeed very important, but the most urgent thing is, maybe we can start with the identity of this person, and then proceed simultaneously, wouldn't it be more efficient?" Sun Wei was stunned. Soon, he reacted and asked, "Have you found any clues, sir?" "Just some reasoning." Li Qingcha picked up a piece of ginger and put it in his mouth, chewing it to extract the juice, then spitting out the residue, and then walked to the corpse. She raised her corpse's right hand, "First of all, this person has pen calluses." The ancients could write with brushes and still produce calluses, which meant they must have worked very hard. and, "This person seems to have tried to remove the callus. You can see here that there are obvious scratches. But even so, it is impossible to restore the skin to softness. Instead, it leaves rough scratches." Everyone nodded. This feature indicates that the deceased was a person who was always writing. Li Qingcha continued, "Another very important point is that this person is wearing a square scarf, which shows that he is not an ordinary person, but has made great achievements." As soon as they heard the word "gong ming", everyone immediately understood. From the direction of Xiucai, as long as the missing person is found, the identity of the deceased can be basically determined. There are not many scholars in Bozhou Prefecture, so starting from the various academies is countless times easier than looking for a needle in a haystack. The yamen runners could not help but whisper to each other.
Gradually, they began to discuss in one direction. "Speaking of which, when the Qi family was exterminated, did you find the butler among the corpses?" "No, I haven't seen it." "Although the Qi family only has a dozen people, since they have even strong maids, there shouldn't be no managers or accountants, right?" "That makes sense. How can a business not have an accountant?" …… The voices of discussion gradually grew louder. Li Qingcha's eyes lit up. "Are you sure he is from the Qi family?" "This……" If the yamen runners say "maybe", that's fine, but if they say "definitely", it's impossible because they are afraid of taking responsibility. Sun Wei couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that Li Qingcha was still young and inexperienced after all. He said: "Don't worry, sir. This matter will be verified soon. The Qi family is a local noble family and they would not employ outsiders as accountants. This person must be from Bozhou... um..." "how?" "Why would a scholar work as an accountant? He is so young, wouldn't it be good for him to continue preparing for the imperial examination?" Sun Wei seemed to have discovered the bright spot. He looked at the corpse and shook his head. "No, Mr. Li, look, he's not wearing a jade pendant." Those who have achieved great achievements will wear jade pendants. Li Qingcha said: "It's natural that I can't find the jade pendant. After all, when I was at the Hong family..." Halfway through her words, she suddenly realized the problem. Her previous reasoning had subtly changed because of the new discovery. "Sir, let's continue our investigation in the direction of the scholar." "That's...ok." Sun Wei didn't say anything more. He ordered the yamen runners: "Go find the coroner first. As for the identity of the deceased, we will talk about it tomorrow morning. Go to each academy and ask every household, looking for those who are close to the Qi family." "promise!" The yamen runners walked towards the door of the morgue. Unexpectedly, as soon as they went out, they seemed to be frightened by something and retreated step by step.
Sun Wei looked over and was stunned. "Lord Jane!" The man was wearing an official uniform with a peacock embroidered on it, just like the prefect of Beijing, Feng Weiqi. Obviously, this person is the governor of Bozhou Prefecture. Sun Wei lowered his voice and introduced: "Jian Zengren."
