Di Renjie ordered people to gather all the corpses in one place, and inspect each of them one by one. After a long while, Di Renjie stayed there, pondered for a moment, did not speak, but instead walked back and forth in several places, his expression gradually changed. Get serious!
"Strange! Really strange!" Di Renjie muttered to himself!
Li Yuanfang's hearing is very good. He heard Di Renjie's whisper to himself. He leaned to Di Renjie's side and asked, "My lord, what are you saying strange?"
Di Renjie paused, twisting his beard: "Yuan Fang, don't you think this murder scene is a bit strange?"
Li Yuanfang looked around, Xiao Ying approached when she saw it. Li Yuanfang thought for a moment, and said, "My lord, what a humble job did not see is anything strange? It's normal?"
Di Renjie stroked his long beard lightly and slowly said, "It's because it's too normal, so it's the strangest thing!"
Li Yuanfang looked at Xiao Ying, Xiao Ying looked at Li Yuanfang, both of them looked puzzled!
Di Renjie said: "Look at the location of the dead, some in the front hall, some in the yard, and some in the back house. Then look at the clothes on their bodies. We can be sure that they are not at night. They were killed when they fell asleep. Since these people were not asleep, they were killed without resistance. Think about it, a few people with sharp blades suddenly appeared in the yard. The first reaction of these people should be What is it?"
Xiao Ying said bluntly and without hesitation: "Of course it is to escape? Can you still stand there waiting for someone to kill?"
Di Renjie smiled slightly and twisted his beard: "Well, yes! But as we see it now, there are no messy footprints in this courtyard, which means that they did not run away. Looking at the state of their deaths, they should be unprepared. All of them were killed, what does this mean?"
Li Yuanfang suddenly said: "My lord, I understand, these murderers knew these people who were killed, so they chose not to escape, and they didn't expect these people to kill them!"
Di Renjie nodded and said, "Yes! Only in this case, these people will be killed unsuspectingly, otherwise there will not be so many geniuses who report the crime. If these people encounter these murderers and realize the danger, they must be They will run away and yell, and this jucai food shop is located in a busy city. If these people who were killed yelled, they would be heard by their neighbors.
If the grain store does not open the next day, someone will definitely report to the official as soon as possible! "
The governor Yao Wenyuan said: "Dare to ask the imperial commissioner, how do you know that these people have been dead for many days?"
Di Renjie twisted his beard and smiled and said: "Of course these corpses told me. Although these corpses do look like they just died recently, don’t forget that these guys were all dead outside, even if these two guys died. The front hall, but the front hall is also an open space. Now that the weather is cold, the corruption of these corpses will be delayed for some time. The boss and the two female corpses died indoors, because there was a charcoal fire in the room, so the temperature It will be taller, so the characteristics of these three corpses will be significantly different from these five corpses! Look, the boss’s corpse, mouth, nose, belly, two ribs, slightly blue flesh on the chest, and abdomen Slightly swelled inside, obviously he should have been dead for about three days!"
The provincial governor Yao Wenyuan knew nothing about the post-mortem, and he didn’t know anything about it. Di Renjie saw Yao Wenyuan’s doubts and said, “Actually, you can find circumstantial evidence. This is a grain shop. Yao Cishi only needs to ask the shops around the grain shop. The grain store hasn’t been opened for a few days, so naturally it will be clear! Go!"
Yao Wenyuan heard that he led people out of the grain shop, while Di Renjie walked from the front door to the back door, and then from the back door to the front door in the grain shop. After walking back and forth a few times, he finally stopped at the counter in the front hall and turned over. I flipped through the account book on the counter, and soon took the account book into my arms!
At this time, the governor Yao Wenyuan ran back, "Old Ge, you are really a god. The next official asked about the shops around the grain store. They said that this jucai grain store has not been opened since it was on the board three days ago!" Yao Wenyuan Bow down and salute!
Di Renjie smiled and waved his hand, and asked, "Do you think there seems to be something missing in this grain store?"
Everyone looked at each other, their faces were filled with confusion, and they shook their heads one after another!
Di Renjie stroked his long beard lightly and smiled and said: "We checked all the rooms in the grain shop, and there were no traces of turning over. It means that these murderers did not come for the money from the grain shop, but you Look at that!"
Everyone looked in the direction of Di Renjie's fingers and found that Di Renjie was referring to the stable in the backyard of the grain shop!
Li Yuanfang said, "My lord, isn't that the stable? What's so special about that
"
Di Renjie smiled and said, "Isn't it strange that there are no mules and horses in the stables in a normal grain store? Also, look at this location again!"
As Di Renjie said, he walked to the side of the stable and pointed to the ground. There were two track marks on the ground. Di Renjie continued: “This should be the place where the grain shop’s carriages are parked, but now the horses are gone, and the carts are gone!”
Li Yuanfang said: "My lord, maybe the guy drove the car to deliver food to a major customer, or where did he go to collect the food?"
Di Renjie smiled slightly, took out the account book he got from the counter from his arms, handed it to Li Yuanfang, and said, "Look at this account book. This account book clearly records the wages paid to the guy, and it is just because of this. Seeing that there are only these five guys in this grain shop, and all five guys died in the grain shop, then who drove the carriage out?"
Li Yuanfang opened the ledger, and as Di Renjie said, there were only five people in this grain store!
Xiao Ying rolled her eyes and suddenly said, "Old Ge, are these murderers for the grain in the grain store? They killed people, and then they drove away the grain stored in the grain store by a carriage!"
Without waiting for Di Renjie to speak, Li Yuanfang laughed and said, "Hahaha, Commander Xiao, it seems that you don’t know much about this folk fireworks? Judging from this account book, this grain shop is profitable. If you take the property of the grain shop owner Robbery, let alone this cart, there is more than enough food for three carts without carts. Several masters killed eight people just for a cart of food? Is this too ridiculous?"
Xiao Ying gave Li Yuanfang a white look, but did not answer!
Di Renjie was amused by the two, and smiled and said, "Well, Yuan Fang is right. Look at the small warehouse in the front hall, the food is still there. If they were for food, how could they let the small warehouse in the front hall go? What?"
Xiao Ying was dubious, and ran to the small warehouse behind the counter in the front hall, opened and checked one by one, and found that the food was there!
In addition, the novel app I'm currently using, both Android and iPhone support!
Seeing Xiao Ying walking back disappointed, others knew the result without asking!
Di Renjie looked around the entire courtyard again and said: "Wen Yuan, take the corpses away, and send someone to seal it up!"
Assassin Yao Wenyuan responded with a yes, and immediately arranged for his subordinates to execute, Di Renjie was about to leave, and just as Di Renjie stepped out of the door of the grain store with one foot, he suddenly hesitated for a moment!
