When Hua Jianying heard the news of Lu Qingfan's return, he immediately put on his clothes, put on his hidden weapon, and left using Qinggong, regardless of the wounds still stained with blood.

After returning to Wuji Tower, Hua Jianying, who had changed his clothes, sat in front of the stone room, his chestnut eyes looking at the small hidden weapon twirling with his fingertips, his expression flickering.

"Knock, knock," regular knocks on the door sounded. As Hua Jianying said, "Come in," Dun San walked in from the door. Seeing that his master's face had improved, he asked in surprise: "Is the original poster healed?"

Sure enough, did you still go to Xun Yun Zuo?

"Um."

Hua Jianying calmly threw the concealed weapon back into the tray, and said calmly: "Such a small thing bites my bones, making it difficult to sleep peacefully every day...Pfft, it is indeed a cold sea."

He was clearly about to die, but not only was Yun Xi able to save his life, but he also suffered such a big loss secretly. The people around Lu Qingfan were like mad dogs, with a secret ruthlessness about dragging people into trouble even if they didn't care about their lives.

"It has to be Miss Yun's wonderful rejuvenation." Dun San said happily: "As long as the original poster is good, nothing else matters."

"You said..." Hua Jianying wanted to ask Dun San if he had ever had that strange throbbing, but as soon as he started talking, he realized something was wrong: "That's all, please step back."

"yes."

Dun San's expression turned from expectation to sadness, and the respect faded away, leaving Hua Jianying alone to continue looking at the small hidden weapon in confusion, and his heart was still hesitating about the strange emotion towards Yun Xi at that time... This was the first time in his life that he felt

Such soft and cowardly thoughts come.

No one can give Huajianying the answer.

Let's say that in the Criminal Department, Yun Xi put on clean clothes and went straight to the study room. She found that all the adults and colleagues from the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Dali Temple were there, waiting for her.

"The deceased Wu Yan died probably between noon and Shen time the day before yesterday."

After seeing the ceremony, Yun Xi did not hesitate and immediately stated the cause of death of the eldest son of the Yuanzheng Hou concubine: "There was uncondensed lunch in his intestines and stomach. In addition, a cross-time comparison of the subordinates' confessions provided by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, it can be roughly accurate at this time.

Within the paragraph.”

Because the body of the deceased had been soaked in water, it is difficult to estimate the time of death as accurately as the previous time of death.

If the body had not been found in time, depending on Yunxi's caution, the time span would have been wider.

"There were two kinds of water plants in the deceased's belly, so it can be concluded that someone must have drowned the deceased first and then killed him. I guess that the deceased suffocated and fainted for the first time but did not die. The murderer was panicked and did not check, so he chose something different.

I kept doing it and kept hiding the body in the place where the murder was committed."

This was the place where Wu Yanshi's crime took place later.

"Doesn't that mean that finding the pool where the deceased first drowned may greatly narrow down the scope of suspects?" Dali Temple Si Zheng Yu Zhi said while thinking.

"Yes." Yun Xi nodded.

"What if the deceased suddenly wakes up when he is halfway through the move and has the instinct to survive again, wouldn't he have to fight the criminal again?" In the eyes of Mr. Chao Zhong of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, everyone must have a strong desire to survive.

.

"Perhaps the criminal ignored Wu Yan's begging for mercy, or was coerced by Wu Yan. Out of fear and panic, he chose to silence Wu Yan forever." Lu Qingfan said calmly: "The second time, the criminal confirmed that Wu Yan was dead.

Then leave."

Later, someone discovered the deceased and reported it to the authorities.

Based on the autopsy results, everyone brainstormed and deduced the details of what happened to the deceased during his lifetime.

After Yun Xi finished speaking, she did not take the credit alone. She said seriously that Uncle Zheng from the Metropolitan Procuratorate had made great efforts when investigating the crime scene, so that he could gather clues based on the corpse and hit the target.

"Zheng Wuzuo did a good job."

Lu Qingfan took the initiative to praise, and Chao Zhong also joked: "Under Yun Wuzuo's 'encouragement', Zheng Wuzuo is more attentive than before."

Next are some detailed inferences made by Yun Xi about the murderer: "Firstly, this person is well versed in the nature of water; secondly, he is familiar with Wu Yan, and knows that he will definitely retaliate after he comes back to life, so he took the risk to kill and silence; thirdly, this person is very

It is possible that he is an expedition to the Marquis's Mansion, or someone who is quite familiar with the terrain of the Marquis' Mansion."

Being able to drag the body away without being noticed by the slaves in the yard, the murderer may have a good idea of ​​how to order the sentry posts.

"Is it another 'Jin Duke's Mansion'?" Ran Piao guessed in a low voice.

The Duke of Jin has already taken the lead in letting everyone see the dirty things happening within the aristocratic family.

Is the truth behind Wu Yan's death similar to this? Is it also the crime committed by someone within the government?

"Until the case is solved, these will not be known for the time being." Lu Qingfan's implication was to ask everyone not to have preconceived ideas, which would hinder objective thinking in investigating the case.

"The Metropolitan Procuratorate has already sent people to monitor the expedition to the Hou Mansion. Except for the place where the body was found, other lakes and ponds have also been spared. The Hou Mansion is basically under supervision. You can go and investigate again at any time; Wu Yan's relevant files have been

I gave it to Lord Ran."

Chao Zhong is really a man of affairs, and he does everything well.

Lu Qingfan nodded after hearing this and said that he would really have to go to the crime scene again later.

Next is the autopsy of Wu Tao in Jingning Bofu.

Yun Xi said: "Wu Tao died from a weapon wound. The weapon was shaped like a long dagger, with a sharp tip and a blunt edge."

Putting the pattern of the weapon on the table, Yun Xi also took out the drawing of Wu Tao's wound for the adults to compare.

"There are a total of twenty-three medium and large wounds on Wu Tao's body. The most fatal one is the three inches of vital organs under his abdomen, which also revealed the appearance of the murder weapon."

Yun Xi roughly gestured the length and said: "Because the dagger is slender and easy to hide, the criminal who was wearing ordinary clothes immediately hid the weapon after killing Wu Tao in the crowd and quickly entered the crowd to hide, so no one from the Yamen could find it.

There is no trace of him."

Yun Xi thought for a while and then added: "But I can't confirm whether the other stab wounds were caused by the same dagger."

Except for the wounds on the vital points, the other wounds were very superficial. Not to mention a dagger, a sharper silver hairpin could have been used. But judging from the traces, it is more likely that it was a dagger.

"No wonder. I heard someone said that there was a lot of people on the street that day, and there were many people parading and juggling. After Mr. Wu was killed, no one saw who was responsible."

When chaos arose in the midst of busy work, the officers naturally arrested anyone they saw suspicious, and lost track of them while tracking him around.

Once you have dressed up as an ordinary person and properly concealed the murder weapon, it may not be easy for others to identify the murderer.

"This is strange. Mr. Wu was hacked to death more than twenty times in the crowd. How could he..." Why didn't he scream?

Master Chao Zhong’s doubts were also the same as Yun Xi’s during the autopsy.

"Maybe there are too many people, or..." Lu Qingfan, who had not spoken for a long time, said lightly: "Maybe there is more than one murderer."

As soon as Ren Danqing heard Lu Qingfan's tone, he knew what he was going to do. He quickly walked to the table and took out the map.

"My lords, let's take a look."

Everyone quickly found several streets and alleys that Wu Tao passed by that day.

"You said there were a lot of people juggling where Wu Tao passed by that day." Lu Qingfan clicked on a few street corners, and then gathered at the place where Wu Tao died:

"If those people were originally in a group, or there were many accomplices among them during the period, they took advantage of the large number of people and stabbed each one, then left after slashing. In the end, the inconspicuous criminal stepped forward and killed him with one blow. This would make sense.

Got it."

Yun Xi suddenly said: "They don't even need to use the same dagger, as long as it can cause wounds."

This method of confusion was like the horn of hell before Wu Tao's death. Faced with so many people suddenly approaching, even if Wu Tao roared in pain, there was no response.

Just when he wanted to continue struggling for help, the murderer stabbed him in the vital part and fell in a pool of blood.

At that time, he seemed to have lost the ability to cry out for help.

Thinking of this, everyone's expressions were filled with compassion.

At the moment when he was about to die, Wu Tao must have been extremely desperate, right?

"The murderer was about the same size as Wu Tao, and the weapon he carried was what everyone saw."

Yun Xi found some subtle physical evidence on Wu Tao's body: a silk thread that did not belong to his clothes, strange grass clippings stained on the soles of his shoes, and a white handkerchief in Wu Tao's sleeve.

"What can a thread mean?" Chao Zhong's eyes widened, not understanding why such a small object should be mentioned.

"It's hard to tell. Maybe it was left behind when the murderer used the murder weapon. Maybe it was accidentally hit by a passerby passing by Wutao. Maybe it's useless."
