Xu Hong is indeed a thoughtful personal guard.

As expected, when Yi Yan returned to his residence and opened the door, he found a gray-white corpse and two wooden doors in the yard.

Seeing Zhan Shuyun, Xu Hong came up to him and said, "Sir, it is preliminary estimated that the deceased has been dead for at least three days. The specific cause of death still needs to be confirmed."

Yan Yan glanced at the wooden door and the empty door frame, "Sir, are you demolishing the house?"

Xu Hong scratched his head in embarrassment and laughed: "In urgent matters, obey authority, in urgent matters, obey authority. I will cultivate this!"

Zhan Shuyun took out the money: "No need to repair, are these enough?"

Yi Yan looked at the two taels of broken silver presented to him and smiled and said, "It's just a joke." Then he stretched out his hand to take it, "But there is no reason to refuse the money sent to the door."

His hands were so cold that Zhan Shuyun calmly withdrew his hands and went to inspect the body.

"Although I have not yet convinced Mrs. Tao to let him do an autopsy, I have seen the corpses in Tao's house. They look very different. No matter how old and dim Mrs. Tao is, she will not mistake her son. How do you judge this body?"

Is the body Tao Ying's?" Zhan Shuyun asked, pointing to the body.

Judging from the two contacts, although this girl is a bit difficult to deal with, she is not an unreasonable person. There must be some suspicions that they have not discovered yet.

"Of course Mrs. Tao will not mistake the appearance of her son, but the limit for ordinary people to touch the body after seeing it is limited. There are still a few who dare to investigate and examine it carefully. Mrs. Tao is no exception. She just recognized a picture of Magistrate Tao.

Face."

"Are you referring to the art of face-changing?" Zhan Shuyun thought for a while, "There are strange and obscene techniques for face-changing in the world. Most of them use human skin masks and some makeup and powder tools to modify them to achieve a real look.

The effect is good, but what’s fake is still fake, and there will be flaws, but there’s nothing wrong with his face.”

Xu Hong was confused. Why couldn't he understand? However, he did not interrupt, but listened carefully. After all, it was a major matter of investigating the case!

He is a mature little adult!

"Don't be imprisoned by common sense." Yu Jin said, "Not everyone will follow the rules. Compared with appearance, I believe that the body can't lie. There is a scar on the left hand of County Magistrate Tao. The shape of the scar is similar to that of this body."

The marks on the corpses match... what if the murderer didn't change the faces, but changed the heads of the two deceased people?"

Changing your hair? What a ridiculous and bold idea!

Xu Hong's hands moved faster than his brain.

"Sir! It's true. There are scars at the base of this man's neck, and there are also traces of sutures! There are indeed scars on his hands, but they are not obvious and can easily be ignored. Miss Yu's guess is right, it's amazing!"

Zhan Shuyun was in a rather complicated mood at the moment, so how did she think of it? As she said, was she not bound by common sense and not following the rules?

"Miss Yu, do you know that your suspicion is even greater." Zhan Shuyun looked at the embers, "Compared to what ordinary people can't think of, more people are willing to believe what they saw with their own eyes, or... what they committed with their own hands."

Ember smiled: "I know that this evidence will expand my suspicion. This is what I told you this morning. However, I have no motive for murder, and rather than baseless speculation, I think it is better to speak with evidence. I

I also want to investigate this murder case as soon as possible to prove my innocence."

Zhan Shuyun stared at Yu Yan's face for a moment. The smile remained unchanged, gentle yet distant, and looked impeccable.

true and false.

His eyes swept over the cold white hands clasped in front of him, and he suddenly sneered.

Sure enough, it's not fear.

I dare to think that others don't dare to think, how could someone who may have even touched a dead body be so afraid of a dead body that they tremble.

"Ask the master to take the body away, and we will go to the Tao Mansion to meet Mrs. Tao for a while."

If it was true as Yu Yan's guess, Mrs. Tao's son had been stabbed long ago.

It was precisely because of this knife that the case, which was more likely to be characterized as an accidental death than initially, was officially turned into a murder case.

I don’t know whether it was luck or misfortune, but Mrs. Tao’s stubbornness led to the discovery of this vicious case, and the death method of murder and head replacement showed that the person behind it was something extraordinary.

Either for conspiracy or to cover up.

Zhan Shuyun gently raised his brows, I am afraid that this group of people at the border of Zhiqin'an will not be able to calm down.

——

"You're talking nonsense! How could I possibly admit my son by mistake!"

Mrs. Tao is still as stubborn, arrogant and unreasonable as ever.

Xu Hong felt tired and sighed for countless times.

This old woman is really difficult to deal with. She had previously complained about her daughter-in-law, who bit Miss Yu, but in order to obtain evidence and conduct an autopsy, the old woman refused and scolded them for being stupid and incompetent, using her words and physical actions.

Okay, poor parents in the world, it’s understandable that they can’t accept using a knife on your son, but they have moved another person who is suspected of being her son, and they have broken it up and told her the truth.

But the old woman kept saying over and over again, "It's impossible to mistake my son!"

Although the position of county magistrate is a seventh-grade petty official, petty officials are also officials, and the county magistrate's family members are also officials' family members. Unless it is absolutely necessary, it is not easy to use status to suppress people, and it is easy to be criticized in the officialdom.

Yu Yan and Zhan Shuyun stood aside and watched Xu Hong try his best to dissuade him. The old woman was stubborn and sighed together.

Zhan Shuyun raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why are you sighing?"

Ember smiled: "I sigh that I am extremely pitiful. My innocence has been completely ruined by the 'lover' who made it up out of nothing. It has spread throughout Qin'an County. Now I don't even dare to leave the house. This case has not been solved for a long time. Mr. Tao

People are even less cooperative..." The Ember Speaker looked at one person, their eyes met, and their smiles deepened: "There are still people who look at me with resentment and try to use their eyes to delay me. Am I not pitiful?

The Tao family's coffin was bought in my shop."

Zhan Shuyun glanced at her and snorted, noncommittal.

You were accused of being a suspect and yet you came to someone's home to help with the autopsy. Is it possible to be grateful if you don't feel resentful? Just because someone bought your coffin?

However, he is very courageous to dare to open a coffin shop at such a young age.

So being weak and scared is just an act, right?

"Generally, an autopsy can only be carried out with the consent of the family members, and Mrs. Tao is not the only family member of Magistrate Tao." Yu Yanxiang said it as if unintentionally.

Zhan Shuyun glanced at the embers again, then looked at the beautiful woman not far away, and understood.

But he did not immediately adopt Ember's suggestion, but was observing.

The beautiful woman, Tao Zhang, looked at Yu Yan with resentment in her eyes. According to what Tao Zhang said, Yu Yan conspired with her sympathizer to murder Tao Ying. It was normal to treat Yu Yan with this attitude. However, Zhan Shuyun's eyes were slightly

Oh, why does he feel that there is a hint of jealousy in this resentment?

This is interesting.

The two rarely crossed paths, and the only intersection at the moment was with Magistrate Tao. Magistrate Tao died, and Mrs. Tao and Zhang accused Yu Hu of collaborating with her sympathizer to murder Tao Ying. Mrs. Tao and Zhang seemed to be jealous of Yu Hu, and what's more interesting is that Yu Yan seemed to

He was very familiar with the body of Magistrate Tao, and could remember the inconspicuous scars on his hands, details that even Mrs. Tao ignored.

Zhan Shuyun's eyes flickered back and forth between Yu Hu and Tao Zhang with a playful expression.

If we speculate based on common sense...

Zhan Shuyun: The eyes gradually become abnormal...

Ember: Please stop your imagination!
