[The first and third shifts are estimated to have to struggle until one or two o’clock. 】
Sun Shaozong believed that there were two attackers in this murder, and naturally he found more evidence on the body.
…
Rewind time to a quarter of an hour ago.
While the servants of the Rongguo Mansion hurriedly rushed to the ear room to spread the word, Sun Shaozong naturally would not be idle. Starting from the fatal wound on the neck, he checked the various traces on the surface of the corpse inch by inch.
First of all, except for the head and neck, there are only two hands that have no obstructions.
The left hand is relatively dry, but there is a little frost on the palm of the right hand, which is probably the appearance of sweating before his death - but other than that, there is no more information.
The deceased was wearing a sable fur with lapel collar. The area of the back stained with dust was slightly larger than the area where the body landed. It is inferred that after being attacked and fell to the ground, there should have been a brief struggle and twisting, but the magnitude was not very large and the time was short. Not very long.
Similarly, the heels of the deceased's deerskin boots also left traces of treading on the ground.
After undoing the sable fur with the lapel and the padded jacket inside, it was found that there were a lot of sweat stains on the body. Obviously, the temporary combination of the padded jacket and the sable fur was too warm.
Why is there sweat even on exposed palms
Has he ever tucked his hands into his sleeves for a long time and refused to take them out even when he felt hot
Why is there no sweat on the left hand
Is he clutching something in his sleeve
But on this palm, there is no long-term holding of anything, and there are traces left...
In addition, Sun Shaozong also found another scar on Jia Huan's left arm.
First, the scar was on the outer back of the upper arm, and the area was only the size of a grain of rice. Second, Jia Lian had a slight skin disease and had a lot of rashes from his shoulders to his elbows, so he almost missed it at first.
Fortunately, Sun Shaozong had the habit of repeated inspections, and it was only in the second inspection that he found something strange.
Through observation and comparison, Sun Shaozong quickly concluded that the wound was caused by a sharp object—it was very consistent with the gilt step on the fatal wound.
Did the murderer attack Jia Huan twice with that golden step
This kind of speculation turned out to be a success, but Sun Shaozong always felt that it seemed to conflict with some details of the scene.
for example…
The shocked emotion in Jia Huan's eyes.
Since he had been stabbed in the arm by the murderer, and there were signs of a fight under his ribs, it stands to reason that Jia Huan's emotions before his death should be dominated by panic.
Of course, these small flaws can barely explain the past.
However, in order to be safe, Sun Shaozong decided to re-examine the traces on the surface of the corpse, especially near the stab wound on the left arm.
Facts have proved that his steadiness is right: in the back of the left upper arm of the lapel Diaoqiu, he found new evidence!
It was a small piece of sable fur that was lying down. Because it was mixed in the environment where the back was under overall pressure, it looked very inconspicuous. In addition, it was contaminated with dust and the current dark environment, so I didn't notice anything wrong before.
However, after careful comparison, it can be confirmed that the degree of lodging in this part is slightly more serious than that of the places around the left and right that were also pressed by the arms.
These differences alone don't explain much.
What really made Sun Shaozong such a treasure was the parts of the lodging mink fur that were stuck together—to be precise, they were frozen together by a small amount of moisture.
After a simple test, it was confirmed that the frozen moisture should be sweat.
At the same time, according to the results of the two servants who tasted it with their tongues, there was a powdery smell in the frozen sweat, which was exactly the same as the frosty sweat on Jia Huan's right hand.
Now a reasonable inference can be made: Jia Huan probably used his right hand to cover the sore spot for a long time after being stabbed in his left arm, so that his palm covered in fur sweated, so he left such traces.
And in this way, the inference that the murderer attacked Jinjin Buyao twice and Jia Huan was even more untenable.
Since Jia Huan had a period of respite between the two attacks, and if he had any signs of being restrained, then he could completely escape, ask for help, struggle, etc. during this interval. .
Besides, since Jia Huan has already been attacked once, he must be very wary of the murderer. How could he give the opponent another chance to kill him after a period of time
In short, no matter what aspect he considers, there should not be only two scars on his body, and more traces should be left at the murder scene.
And Jia Huan's corpse shouldn't be lying in the most hidden place in the whole bamboo forest - you must know that this forest trail is only 30 steps in total, and if you dodge a few steps, it will deviate from the center.
Not to mention emotional issues...
A more reasonable inference now is that after the first attack, Jia Huan quickly confirmed his safety, so instead of running away and calling for help, he continued to stay in the center of the bamboo forest.
But how was he sure that he would not be attacked again
Murderer's Guarantee
Jia Huan is not stupid.
murderer…
ran away
This is very possible!
If the owner of this gilded Buyao is really the one Sun Shaozong guessed, it is almost impossible for her to kill Jia Huan.
If it is said that he accidentally stabbed Jia Huan to death in a panic, it may still be possible, but after the first attack, after a period of time, he launched a fatal blow to Jia Huan...
Maybe she really ran away and left the murder weapon at the scene!
This also explained the question of why such a murder weapon, which would obviously reveal its identity, remained at the scene.
When Jia Huan saw her escape, he naturally didn't feel that there was any danger, so he stayed where he was, clutching the sore part of his left arm, waiting for another person to arrive.
As for the reason...
"Steward Zhao."
Sun Shaozong suddenly turned his head and asked Zhao Zhongji: "Now that people's debts are eliminated, why don't you tell me the truth, Brother Huan recently owed gambling debts again?"
"this… "
Zhao Guoji hesitated for a while, but nodded and said, "He sneaked out for a long time that day, and when he came back, he complained about his bad luck. He probably lost a lot."
now it's right!
The reason why Jia Huan appeared in the bamboo forest in the middle of the night, and even after being attacked, had to wait, was mostly because he was eager to fill the hole in the gambling debt, so as not to be discovered by Jia Zheng who suddenly returned to Beijing.
but…
Why didn't he borrow money from his mother, Concubine Zhao
Concubine Zhao followed Jia Zheng and worked for more than two years in Jiangxi, so she shouldn't have saved any savings.
"This time Concubine Zhao came back, did their mother and son get along alone?"
"It just took a while."
Zhao Guoji smiled bitterly and said, "It was probably because of the fourth brother that the mother and son had a big fight - my sister was crying just now, and she said that she was digging her heart out.
I see.
This time Aunt Zhao gave birth to a son outside, and the whole family was kept in the dark, even Jia Huan's own son was no exception.
For Jia Huan, who is paranoid by nature, this is undoubtedly a betrayal, and it is normal for him to have a dispute with his mother.
That's why he didn't ask his mother for help, but raised money in private.
But given Jia Huan's notorious reputation for hating dogs, apart from his sister Jia Tanchun, no one in this manor would be willing to lend him money, right
But Jia Tanchun had already given all his money to him when he repaid the loan last time - and for this reason, the suspect that Sun Shaozong had previously identified was Jia Tanchun.
[Although Shi Xiangyun is also poor herself, her family always shows her poverty and has no extra expenses. There is absolutely no reason for such a product.
Xue and Lin were both short of money, and Xichun was still in mourning recently, and it was impossible for him to wear such a hairpin, so Jia Tanchun was the most suspect. 】
Besides Jia Tanchun, who is the other person invited by Jia Huan
Why did that person answer his appointment in the middle of the night
Could it be that he was holding some kind of handle, so he had to...
Sun Shaozong was pondering this, when Jia Baoyu and others rushed over, Sun Shaozong didn't have time to think any more, he just followed the previous calculation and confirmed the owner of Liu Jinchai's head first.
Unexpectedly, an abnormality was found on Xue Baochai at the very beginning.
Given the current state of the Xue family, it is absolutely impossible for Xue Baochai to use this kind of gilt hairpin. Could it be that...
Is she the second person to be held by Jia Huan
