Chapter 24 Beast Language Solving the Case
Yesterday, she was squeezed back and forth in the palace fifteen times. Lin Xiu was exhausted both physically and mentally and slept until noon the next day before getting up.
No one came to invite him today. The ice he made yesterday was at least enough for the palace to last three days.
After getting up and having lunch, Lin Xiu first went to Zhaiyue Tower, prepared the ice for them today, and then returned to the Qinglisi Department.
After summoning Lin Xiu to the palace, the emperor rewarded a lot of ice to the nobles yesterday. There were naturally no yamen like the Qing Lisi. The officials and yamen runners here also had to do business in the steamer-like duty room.
Lin Xiu was determined to establish good relations with his colleagues of the Qinglisi Department so that they would turn a blind eye to his work and absent from work every few days. Therefore, this afternoon, there were cool breezes in all the yamen rooms of the Qinglisi Department. Not only were there huge ice cubes on all corners of the room, but ice water was also placed on the tables of the officials to cool off.
After half a day, Lin Xiu was very familiar with the officials from various departments of the Qing Office, Case Deposit, Cell, and Cell. As for the doctor, Lin Xiu did not go there in person, but asked the yamen to send enough ice cubes.
At this point, most of the officials and yamen officers of the Qing Lisi have changed their impression of Lin Xiu.
Although this young man from the Ping'an Bo family did not come to the Qinglisi Department very much on weekdays, he was really unspeakable in his behavior. He did not have the temperament of a playboy. He talked to him like a spring breeze blowing on his face, which was particularly comfortable. He used his ability to benefit the entire Qinglisi Department and prevent them from the suffering of heat. Their attitude towards him had to change his enthusiasm and friendship.
"You said, Lord Lin, why is it different from before recently?"
"Yes, he almost didn't come to our Qinglisi before, and he has been running very diligently recently."
"Mr. Lin's changes are more than that. He never talked to us before. Now he buys us breakfast and makes ice and cool down for us. It's like a different person."
"He seems to be really different from those powerful children..."
In a certain yamen room, everyone was talking about Lin Xiu, and at this moment, a snorted voice came from the crowd: "Hmph, what's the difference? Are the powerful and powerful all the same? After receiving a little favor from him, they regard him as their own?"
Everyone turned their heads and looked at a young official without saying anything.
They all knew that this rookie from the Qing Lisi was born into a civilian and had reached his current position step by step. He never looked down on the powerful and noble children who had entered the Qing Lisi. Some of the things that happened to him in the past also made him very hostile to the powerful and noble class in the royal capital.
...
Qing Lishu, Lin Xiu did not check in and leave today.
The Academic Academy is still a holiday. Every winter and summer, the academy will give students a month off to go home to visit their families. During this period, all courses in the Academic Academy have been suspended, and it is useless to go Lin Xiu.
Taking advantage of this period of time, I happened to be able to show my presence in the Qinglisi. In order to make my parents feel at ease, this job must be kept.
Lin Xiu was boredly sorting out the document files on the table. When he saw a colleague on the opposite side packing up his luggage and preparing to go out, he asked casually: "Mr. Xu, where are you going?"
Lord Xu sighed and said, "A case happened in the west of the city. I'll go record it."
In addition to recording and sorting out case files, the documents in the document library should also follow the constable and coroner to record the details of the scene, the witnesses oral statements.
Lin Xiu had been unable to sit still for a long time. When he heard that there was a heidedy, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Mr. Xu, I have to take care of you before. It's a hot day. I'll go there. I'm not afraid of heat."
He had never been to the document library before, and it was not an exaggeration to say that the other three were taken care of by the work of four documents.
The sun was poisonous outside, and Lord Xu was reluctant to go out. Is it uncomfortable to sit in the yamen room and blow the cool breeze? He symbolically shirked his responsibilities and said with a smile: "Then Lord Laulin."
Lin Xiu waved his hand: "You're welcome, you're welcome."
This time, the coroner and several constables from the arresting office were accompanied by the heterodyne.
Lin Xiu talked and laughed with everyone along the way, but there was only one person, always with a stern face and never smiled at him.
It was a young man, who was a little handsome, but he was not as cool as Lin Xiu. He didn't speak.
Lin Xiu remembered that this person was named Liu Qingfeng, who seemed to be the chief officer of the arrest office. He was not very old and had strong abilities. He had a great reputation in the Qing Lisi Department. He was once the first arrester of the Qing Lisi Department. Later, he was promoted and highly valued by the doctor.
He didn't remember when he offended him, but he didn't have a good face to Lin Xiu, and Lin Xiu wouldn't take the initiative to pay attention to him.
The group soon arrived at the crime scene.
This is a merchant's house in the west of the city. The yard is quite small. The big house with four entrances is larger than Lin Mansion. The house belongs to a merchant surnamed Wang, and it is this merchant surnamed Wang who has the accident.
This morning, he was found dead in his yard by his servants.
After the coroner's examination, he found that there was no other wound on his body, and there was only one fatal injury, located behind his head, and there was blood stain on one corner of the flower bed in the yard. After comparison, it was indeed Wang Yuanwai's.
In addition, the coroner also found traces of sprain at Wang Yuanwai's ankle.
One of the blue bricks on the ground was indeed loose. After a detective accidentally stepped on them, he almost fell down.
The case was much simpler than expected. All the evidence showed that when Wang Yuanwai was walking in the yard last night, he accidentally stepped on this loose blue brick, his body was unstable, and he fell to the ground.
By chance, his head hit the edge of the flower bed and died at that time.
The loose blue bricks on the ground, the sprained ankle marks on Wang Yuanwai's head, the fatal injuries behind his head, and the blood on the flower bed all illustrate this.
Of course, this is a life lawsuit after all. The Qing Lishu still conducted strict on-site investigations, asked everyone in the royal palace, and even restored the situation at the time of the incident. The results all showed that Wang Yuanwai died accidentally.
After Liu Qingfeng repeatedly surveyed the scene, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "We have carefully watched the scene. Wang Yuanwai died by accident. You can clean up the scene and prepare for his funeral."
"Master, why are you leaving like this!"
"How can we live..."
"Master, you are so cruel..."
...
When the Wang family heard this, they began to cry. The constables of the Qing Lishu often dealt with murder cases and were accustomed to this, but they sighed in their hearts that the Wang family died too frustrated. They finally earned such a big family business and had not had time to enjoy it, but they fell to death like this. It was a pity...
Just as the members of the Qing Lisi were about to leave, Lin Xiu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "This is not an accident, it was him killing."
After his words fell, the crying of the Wang family came to an abrupt end.
The eyes of the Qing Lisi also looked at Lin Xiu in unison.
Liu Qingfeng frowned, stared at Lin Xiu, and asked in a deep voice: "Lin Wenshu, all the evidence shows that Wang Yuanwai died by accident. Did you find any new clues? Where are you?"
Lin Xiu shook her head and said, "No."
These constables from the Qing Lishu Department had handled many cases and had sharp eyes. They surveyed the scene many times and checked all traces before they came to this conclusion. Of course, Lin Xiu, an outsider, could not have richer experience than their on-site survey.
Liu Qingfeng frowned even more, and his tone became heavier, with a bit of reprimand, and said, "Lin Wenshu, although life is at stake, it is not too much to be cautious. But everything is important to evidence. Please do not speak here without any evidence."
Lin Xiu looked at a bird cage hanging under the eaves. To be precise, he looked at the bird in the cage. It was a thrush. Many of the nobles and rich people in the capital liked to walk the birds for fun and took it as an elegant look. In order to be elegant, Wang Yuanwai also had a one at home.
At this moment, it was quiet around, and only this bird was screaming.
The next moment, Lin Xiu looked away, pointed his hand at one of the Wang family members, and said, "Wang Yuanwai was murdered, and the murderer was this person. If you don't believe it, you will know if you examine him."
Lin Xiu pointed at a man. Seeing Lin Xiu put the identity of the murderer on him, his face turned pale, he knelt on the ground with a thud and said loudly: "Sir, it's not me, it's really not me. How could I harm the master? If something happened to the master, I'd better go to the yamen to report the case. Please give me a clarification!"
Liu Qingfeng's eyes condensed. Just as Lin Xiu pointed at the man, he keenly discovered that an abnormal look of panic flashed in this person's eyes!
How is this possible!
You know, since he just stepped into the Wang family, he has been secretly paying attention to the expressions of everyone here. After many investigations, he has eliminated the suspicion of each of them.
This servant of the Wang family has always been a bit undoubted, but when Lin Xiu pointed at him just now, his eyes and expressions showed flaws!
If he was wronged and pointed out, he should be shocked, surprised, angry, and afraid, but he should not have such guilty panic.
Liu Qingfeng has investigated countless cases and arrested countless murderers with his own hands. The intuition that has been formed for a long time tells him that this person has a problem!
But how did Lin Xiu see it?
Liu Qingfeng looked at Lin Xiu and found that his eyes were calm and he could not see any emotional fluctuations.
He quickly calmed down his mood, pointed at the servant of the Wang family, and said, "If you have any problems with this person, take him down!"
Several constables received orders and immediately pulled the servant out of the crowd.
Just now, the Qing Lisi people thought that Wang Yuanwai died accidentally, so when they asked the Wang family, there was no point in mind. However, since the suspect was locked in, the questioning of him was naturally pointed out. At first, the person's answer was quite smooth, but after a moment, his self-evidentiary words were full of loopholes and even contradictory. Gradually, even the Wang family members could see that something was wrong...
A woman pointed at him and said in grief: "Wang Er, it's a pity that our Wang family is so nice to you, you actually did such a thing!"
After repeated questioning by everyone in the Qingguansi, Wang Er's mind finally collapsed. He knelt on the ground and cried, "Madam, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it..."
Under heavy pressure, Wang Er, an ordinary person, quickly confessed.
It turned out that as a servant of the Wang family, he had been secretly stealing Wang family's property because his methods were secret, leaving no clues every time, and he was never caught.
Unfortunately, when he stole the silver from Wang Yuanwai last night, he was arrested on the spot by Wang Yuanwai. He became a thief. The angry Wang Yuanwai wanted to send him to the official position at that time.
If he was sent to the government, at least one punishment stick would be inevitable. When Wang Er begged for mercy, he had a physical dispute with Wang Yuanwai and accidentally pushed him to the ground. Unexpectedly, Wang Yuanwai hit the back of his head and died at that time.
Wang Er was panicked at first. After calming down, he was worried that the government would punish him for murder, so he carefully cleaned up the first scene and carefully arranged the illusion of Wang Yuan's accidental death in the yard. Because his details were handled too well, even the members of the Qing Lisi were deceived.
"Damn it, I have seen those who have covered up the facts of murder, but I have never seen such a seamless arrangement!"
"I really didn't leave any clues to us!"
"You damn, you are really a talent. Why don't you do this with this ability? You have to go to the wrong path!"
...
The Qing Lisi was almost confused by Wang Er, and he was angry and angry. However, when he thought about busy and carefully checking the Wang family, he did not find any clues. Lin Xiu stood in the yard, doing nothing, but recognized the murderer at a glance, and countless curiosities arose in his heart. How did he know?
Even Liu Qingfeng put away his contempt for Lin Xiu and humbly asked, "Lin Wenshu, how did you see that he was the murderer?"
After this incident, he no longer thought that Lin Xiu had come to the despicable person of the Qing Lisi by walking through the back door. Even he took a look at it, but Lin Xiu could recognize the murderer at a glance. This documentary in the documentary was really capable.
He looked down on those powerful and powerful children, but he had to accept Lin Xiu's wise eyes.
Of course, Lin Xiu couldn't tell Liu Qingfeng that it was the bird in the cage that although no one saw what Wang Er did last night, a bird was seen from beginning to end.
