After dinner, Chen Yuan followed Yu Bantou and his group to the Yu Mansion.

Yu Shouqian's body was still in Yizhuang, and Yu Enming thanked guests behind closed doors, so no relatives or friends came to express condolences at this moment.

The entire Yu Mansion was deserted, and the servants were walking cautiously for fear of making any noise and attracting attention.

Bantou Yu has also been inspecting the Yu Mansion with his government officials for two days. He is willing to bring Chen Yuan here this time in the hope that she will find something different.

Even if you want to search the Yu Mansion, you cannot throw away the etiquette of meeting the master first. Yu Enming cannot avoid it. As the current owner of the Yu Mansion, he must also receive the government servants well.

Yu Quan and Chen Yuan met Yu Enming, who looked normal, in the main hall, "Master Yu."

"Board leader, Chen Wuzuo, please take a seat." Yu Enming politely invited the two of them to take a seat, and then said to the boy waiting beside him, "Serve tea to the distinguished guests."

After the murder occurred, the busiest people were the government officials running around.

Bantou Yu is a serious and responsible person and doesn't like to waste time dealing with people. Anyway, few of what Yu Enming says is true.

"Master Yu, it's no need. We have an errand and we have to ask the eldest son to send someone to lead the way. We also want to see the place where Master Yu drowned."

Yu Enming's expression was very calm, "Didn't you see the place where my father drowned? There is nothing to see there."

Hearing what he said, Chen Yuan got a headache.

That day, when she and Lieutenant Ge were waiting for the principal, they waited for a while on the waterside pavilion. At that time, she did not know that that was the place where Mr. Yu drowned.

Because the tables, chairs, and food on the waterside pavilion had all been cleared away, making it impossible to tell that anyone had set a table there and had a meal.

The main problem in this case is poor communication and untimely communication of information. First of all, the Yu Mansion reporting officials are Aunt Rong’s maids who have gone through all the trouble to report to the county government officials. Lianqiu knows very little information, and the government officials also know very little.

limited.

When Chen Yuan got the news, she was only informed to go for an autopsy. She didn't know any other information. The government officials didn't know anything. She had no right to ask the servants of the Yu Mansion. If she asked, no one else would say anything.

Lieutenant Ge Xian was present, but he did not ask. As a subordinate, Chen Yuan had no right to ask. Lieutenant Ge Xian only regarded himself as the coroner supervisor and did not interfere with others. Chen Yuan understood that he was protecting his own safety and was afraid that he would make too many mistakes.

.

At the same time, Official Wei Dianshi and Huang Tuiguan were already punishing the housekeeper who had been captured by the Yamen officials...

The Yu Mansion cleaned up the crime scene in a timely manner. The tables, chairs and benches were put away, and the bowls, chopsticks, and wine cups used for eating were also washed.

That's it, I can't find anything wrong with it.

Just because someone cleaned up the scene, it cannot be said that Yu Enming was the real murderer of his father, because the information the county government received at that time was the words of the housekeeper and his family.

Yu Enming believed the housekeeper Decai's words and thought that his father accidentally fell into the water and drowned. He cleaned up the scene and took care of Yu Shouqian's remains. It was questionable but it was normal behavior. After all, this was ancient times, and the spread of the law was not very popular in ancient times. Therefore, Yu Enming's behavior,

It does not amount to destroying the scene of the crime, nor does it violate Nanli criminal law.

The Yamen was closely related to the Yu Mansion, and its attitude towards Yu Enming was very friendly, and they did not even summon him to the Yamen for investigation.

It's obviously a very simple case...

Yu Quan didn't answer Yu Enming's question. He just looked at Chen Yuan. He didn't find anything. Today, he just hoped that Chen Yuan could see something.

"Master Yu, we are just going to take a look at the scene as a routine matter. Is there any inconvenience?" Chen Yuan couldn't guarantee what else he could see there.

"The Yamen is investigating the cause of my father's death. How can I not cooperate?" Yu Enming easily resolved Chen Yuan's little temptation.

Chen Yuan didn't think she would be better than the government officials. Her purpose was just to see the scene again, as long as the other party agreed.

Later, Yu Enming personally took Chen Yuan and his party to Tianxiang Pavilion again.

Yu Quan pointed to a corner on the right side of the waterside pavilion, "Butler Decai said that Yu Shouqian fell into the water at this location."

Then he drew a circle in the middle of the waterside pavilion, "The dining table was placed here at that time."

…

Ren Chenyuan has been to many crime scenes, and she is a little helpless when faced with such a clean scene.

Apart from bruises and scratches, there were no other external injuries on Yu Shouqian's body. Even if she could react with luminol and brought an LSK fluorescent lamp, nothing would be found here.

Different from the day before, Chen Yuan now had the authorization from the county magistrate, and there was no direct superior to suppress her. In addition, the squad leader trusted her, and it was easier for Chen Yuan to ask questions, "Yu squad leader, De Cai was standing there at that time.

where?"

"That water corridor." Yu Bantou turned around and pointed to a corridor on the left side of the water pavilion.

"Can you trouble Master Yu to have the tables, chairs, dishes, wine bottles and wine bottles used by Master Yu when he had dinner that day, and have them brought out and arranged as they were on that day?"

Not understanding the environment of the Yu Mansion, she could not reconstruct the crime scene in her mind like the detectives in movies and TV series. Due to helplessness, Chen Yuan could only reconstruct the crime scene based on the environment.

"No trouble." Yu Enming hesitated for a moment, then told the boy beside him, "Just follow what Chen Wuzuo said."

The boy was very efficient, and it didn't take long for the group to bring a round dining table.

There are two wooden chairs next to the round wooden table, and there are also two pairs of bowls and chopsticks on the table, and there are even two wine glasses.

After reading Decai's confession, he didn't hear that there were two people eating at that time. Chen Yuan asked doubtfully, "Why are there two sets of bowls and chopsticks? Is there anyone else eating with Mr. Yu that day?"

There was a moment of silence in the waterside pavilion. A boy who had just set up the tables and chairs said, "I was the only one eating that day."

Chen Yuan looked at him, he was an honest and loyal servant, "Who are you? Did you eat alone when you saw Master Yu that day?"

"Little Yu Tao."

The boy was a little cautious, but he responded smoothly, "On that day, the younger ones also came to set up and clear the tables and chairs. While the master was eating, the younger ones were waiting outside the courtyard. The maid who passed the dishes didn't stay too much. I didn't see him during this period.

When outsiders come in and out, there is only one butler to serve in the courtyard."

With no one else coming in or out, could it be that Decai and Yu Shouqian were having dinner together?

Chen Yuan, "When you collected the bowls and chopsticks, did you ever find that another pair of bowls and chopsticks had been used?"

"Master, that pair of bowls and chopsticks have been used, and the other pair of bowls and chopsticks are clean."

"Yes."

The servants and maids who served that day all confirmed.

Chen Yuan, "You came in to collect the dishes and chopsticks as soon as Mr. Yu fell into the water? Or did you get the master's order to clean up the tables and chairs after making sure that Mr. Yu died?"

The eldest son was standing nearby. She directly asked questions related to the eldest son. The servant girl was uneasy and did not dare to speak out, for fear of giving the wrong answer.

Yu Enming did not feel embarrassed at all after being suspected, "You just answer according to the truth at that time."

Yu Tao replied, "We heard a thud from the waterside pavilion, but we didn't take it seriously at first. After all, the aunts occasionally throw rocks into the lake for fun when they are bored. Until the next moment, the housekeeper shouted for help.
