Seeing that Sun Shaozong was fiddling with the thing with his saber, he looked over and over for a while, then turned the corpse over and stared at Bai Shengsheng's buttocks.

He was secretly sighing that he was unlucky, to have such a serious boss on the stall, but suddenly someone behind him said angrily: "Erlang, you've been tossing and turning, have you seen anything?"

The head of Ma Lian was startled, and looked back quickly, but it turned out that Jia Lian and others were impatient, and finally got the courage to lean over - at this time, in addition to three servants and five health servants, there were actually more servants around him. A handsome young man.

The head of Ma Lian hurriedly greeted all the yamen officers to come forward to greet him. The scene of the crime was messy for a while, only Sun Shaozong stood still and lifted the legs of the corpse to look up and down.

Jia Lian is so patient to deal with these 'scumbags'

Without squinting his eyelids, he took two steps closer, reached out and patted Sun Shaozong's shoulder, half complaining and half jokingly said: "Erlang, what treasures have you been searching for? Look at your meticulousness, I don't know. , I'm afraid I thought it was Cao Sikong's Captain Mojin here!"

Only then did Sun Shaozong stand up straight, and he threw the waist knife to the head of the horse face.

The head of the horse face hurriedly took it, seeing that the scabbard was clearly twisted with some dark yellow filth, and hurriedly poked it into the snow to rub it a few times, but he heard Sun Shaozong say: "Keep it for now, anyway. It's a piece of evidence."

The head of Ma Lian hurriedly raised the knife again, but he looked left and right, but he couldn't see these filthy things, how could they look like evidence.

Seeing a smile on Sun Shaozong's face, Jia Lian hurriedly asked, "Erlang, what clues have you found?"

Sun Shaozong grinned and said eloquently: "It can basically be determined whether this person died of poisoning, or was killed by a good concubine - that concubine should be a young woman who lives alone, and is not a prostitute, but has a high reputation. woman."

When everyone around him saw his promise, they couldn't help but be a little skeptical.

It is difficult for others to ask, but how can Jia Lian hold back

He hurriedly asked, "How do you know that the one who killed him was a young and romantic woman, and you also know that the woman is not a prostitute?"

Sun Shaozong pointed at the head of the horse's face and said, "The stuff on the scabbard is usually caused by a romantic disease, and I just checked it carefully. This guy's stuff is very neat, and there is no acne. It can be seen that this stuff It came from someone else."

After a pause, he continued: "Besides doing that thing, it's not easy to get attached to this thing, so I concluded that this person died of poisoning when he was having a good time with a woman, or just finished doing it. And only in this way, will these filth remain on the corpse, and there will be no time to clean it up."

Everyone was stunned when they heard it, but they saw him looking back and pointing at the man's corpse, and said, "This man's hair is dry and bifurcated, the skin behind his ears is rough and dark, and there are many calluses on his feet. Obviously, he is often running around."

"But his teeth are very neat, the flesh on his hands is very tender, and he seems to be someone who doesn't work hard. Combining the two, we can basically tell that this person is either a small businessman or a businessman. stewardship."

"A master like him who has some spare money in his pocket should look down on those prostitutes who have been in the dark, and most likely will find a young and beautiful woman."

Everyone was amazed when they heard this.

In particular, the yamen headed by the head of the horse-faced class, in addition to admiration, concealed a little shame - I and others have been busy all morning for nothing, and it is not as good as what others have earned in a moment!

Jia Lian still insisted, "Then how do you know that the one who killed him must be a young prostitute, not a prostitute in the brothel?"

"Could it be that Brother Lian hasn't been to the brothel?"

Sun Shaozong said with a smile: "This corpse was obviously thrown out last night. There are so many people in the brothel. If you want to make such a big sack in the middle of the night, it is difficult for ordinary prostitutes to do it, right?"

Jia Lian was about to retort immediately, saying that many of the courtesans in the brothel were also single-family.

However, he is not a fool after all. He immediately thought that with the financial resources of a walking businessman, if he wants to sleep with the oiran in the Qinglou, he may not be able to get his wish if he goes bankrupt. Besides, what reason do those oirans have to kill a small businessman

Seeing a headless case, Sun Shaozong teased out the context, and the spirit of the head of the horse-faced class was also raised.

I saw him slashing the knife on his waist with the 'evidence', and said excitedly: "Master, there are at most fifteen or sixteen young prostitutes around here. This vicious and vicious woman has been arrested and charged!"

As he said that, he was about to greet the yamen to act separately.

Who knows but heard Sun Shaozong say, "Don't worry, I still have a few clues to finish here."

"Any clues?!"

The head of the horse face widened his eyes in astonishment. The inference just now was amazing enough. Who would have thought that this Sun Tongjuan had discovered other clues!

Jia Lian was also very interested when he heard the words, and hurriedly urged Sun Shaozong to come quickly.

I heard Sun Shaozong say: "First of all, it should be an accident that the body was thrown here - I paid special attention when I came here. This place is not far from Wanliu Pond, so I should throw the body into the pond no matter what."

"So I deduced that the murderer wanted to transport the corpse to Wanliutang to throw the body, but he was frightened on the way, so he threw the corpse here - so there is no need to check the direction of Wanliutang. "

"In addition, there are clear scratches on this person's armpits, shoulders, and ankles, which shows that he was lifted up by two people together after his death, and this person is only one meter tall... Cough, this person is less than five feet tall. Chi [1 meter 66], and the born is very thin, and it is inferred from common sense, not to mention a man and a woman, even if two adult women work together, they can easily move."

"But there are obvious drag marks on the buttocks of the corpse, so if there is no accident, there should be only one accomplice by the woman's side, and it is either a minor child or a frail old man."

Hearing that he even deduced the characteristics of the murderer's accomplice, everyone was dumbfounded.

But Sun Shaozong's performance wasn't over yet, he pointed at the corpse and said, "Also, among the murderer and his accomplice, one of them has injured his left ring finger, and he doesn't usually use much strength, so some of the scratches on the ring finger are very shallow. , and some don’t even see it at all.”

"what!"

As soon as Sun Shaozong finished speaking, he saw the handsome young man beside Jia Lian jumping more than three feet high, and exclaimed excitedly: "I know, I know! It was Jie Feng who killed, definitely the one who Jie Feng killed!"
