Volume 3: The Case of Hundred Ghosts at Night Chapter 83: Brothers
Xing Qianqiu and others quickly arrived at the "Yingbin Building" in Beicheng.
This is where the Dachu envoys live. The atmosphere in the Yingbin Building seems to be very tense at the moment. The government officials have surrounded the Yingbin Building.
"What's going on?" Xing Qianqiu came outside the Yingbin Building, saw Yamen Sun, and asked in a deep voice.
"Commander Xing, Mr. Duan." Sun Yamen greeted the two of them, and then whispered: "The deceased's name is Duguyuan, and he is the deputy envoy of the Dachu Mission. After Shen Shi returned to his room drunk last night, he has been there until the end of today.
I just left the room. I said I was going out to do some errands, but as soon as I walked out of the back door of the reception building, I died."
"How did you die?" Xing Qianqiu asked in a deep voice.
"According to the servant who was following Dugu Yuan, a female ghost in white fell from the sky and directly held Dugu Yuan in her arms. After the woman in white flew into the sky, Dugu Yuan's body fell to the ground.
His head is also missing." Sun Yamen said: "People say it is a hundred ghosts who kill people!"
"Another headless corpse?" Duan Ming and Xing Qianqiu looked at each other, and under the leadership of Sun Yamen, they came to the back door of the Yingbin Building.
The back door was open at the moment, with two government officials standing next to it. There was a large pool of blood on the ground, but Duguyuan's body was not here.
"Where is the body?" Duan Ming asked in a deep voice.
"He was taken back to the embassy." Sun Yamen sighed: "The ambassador of Chu firmly disagreed with leaving the body here. We have no choice..."
"Okay." Duan Ming sighed.
Duan Ming and Xing Qianqiu then began to check the surrounding situation, trying to find clues.
"Only that servant saw it? Where is that servant now?" Duan Ming searched for a moment, but found nothing, and asked in a deep voice.
"He has been imprisoned in the room." Sun Yamen said: "Indeed, only he saw it."
"Okay, I'll go see the body first, Lao Xing, you go and interrogate the servant." Duan Ming said.
"Okay." Xing Qianqiu nodded.
If it was really only the servant who saw it, then that servant is the most likely.
Soon, Duan Ming came to the room where Duguyuan's body was stored, opened the window to let the sunlight in, and then Duan Ming came to Duguyuan's body.
Duguyuan's body was placed on the ground. It could be seen by the candlelight that the neck of the body was flat and smooth, and blood was still flowing out from his broken neck.
"Seventh cervical vertebra." Duan Ming frowned slightly. Judging from the severed ends, Dugu Yuan's corpse had exactly the same symptoms as Xu Hansan's corpse.
Duan Ming then examined Duguyuan's body bit by bit, hoping to find some clues.
"Huh?" Just when Duan Ming inspected Duguyuan's right hand, he narrowed his eyes.
He found a white silk thread between the nails of Dugu Yuan's right hand. The material of this thread was exactly the same as what he had found on Zichu Street before.
"Woooooooooo..." At this moment, Duan Ming suddenly heard a hint of faint crying.
Duan Ming suddenly turned his head and saw a figure floating quietly outside the window.
Yes, it's Piao. After all, this is the second floor of Yingbin Building. How could there be anyone standing outside the window?
This figure's hair was hanging down, covering her face, but she looked like a woman, and the weeping sound came from her hair.
Duan Ming narrowed his eyes and was about to shout, when he saw the figure flying out of thin air and disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Duan Ming quickly walked to the window and looked outside, but there was nothing outside.
"Lao Liu, what's wrong?" Hearing the movement upstairs, the Yamen guard standing outside raised his head and looked at the window.
"Did you see a white figure just now?" Duan Ming asked in a deep voice.
"No." Several government officials looked at each other and shook their heads.
"That's it." Duan Ming frowned slightly, closed the window, and quickly left the room.
At this moment, Xing Qianqiu was interrogating Duguyuan's servant. Duguyuan's servant was trembling all over, like a frightened quail.
"Really, I didn't lie!" the servant repeatedly emphasized: "Mr. Dugu and I just went out, and the female ghost flew down from the sky with a whoosh, and then flew up with a whoosh, and Mr. Dugu flew up.
died."
"Do you really think there are ghosts in this world?" Xing Qianqiu asked in a deep voice.
"Hmm, I didn't believe it originally, but today, I believe it, I really believe it!" the servant shouted.
"Old Xing!" As he spoke, Duan Ming walked in, glanced at the servant, and then looked at Xing Qianqiu: "How is it?"
"If you bite him to death, you are a female ghost who kills someone." Xing Qianqiu sighed and said in a deep voice.
"That's it, maybe it's really the female ghost who killed someone." Duan Ming said solemnly: "Okay, don't waste time here, find someone to send Duguyuan's body back to the morgue, and I'll take care of it again
Check, you have more important things to do."
"What's the matter?" Xing Qianqiu asked confused.
"Don't forget, you have to accompany the princess to entertain the Marquis of Chu tonight." Duan Ming said with a smile.
"But, the murder case here...how can I have the intention to entertain..." Xing Qianqiu said solemnly.
"You have to go even if you don't have any thoughts!" Duan Ming said, "Just leave it to me."
"Then, okay." Xing Qianqiu looked at Duan Ming's expression and didn't understand what Duan Ming was planning, so he could only nod in agreement.
"Wait, none of you can leave!" At this moment, a loud shout came from outside the house, and then a man with a beard pushed the door in: "We have traveled thousands of miles to come to your Daqi, we are pregnant
I came here out of sincerity, and then what? Brother Dugu died here! You must give me an explanation today."
"This is the ambassador of the mission, Tuoba Yankang." Sun Yamen walked in quickly, and then said to Duan Ming and Xing Qianqiu: "I can't stop him."
"Ambassador Tuoba, please rest assured." Xing Qianqiu said solemnly: "Our Mirror Division will definitely solve the case as soon as possible and bring justice to Dugu Deputy Envoy."
"Crack the case as soon as possible? Just now I heard you say that a female ghost killed someone outside. I think you are just a loser!" Tuoba Yankang shouted: "Now you are going to treat people to dinner? You, the Qi State, want to humiliate you.
Are we great?"
"Hey, Mr. Tuoba, look at what you said." Just when Xing Qianqiu was about to reply, Duan Ming suddenly said: "Looking at how wise and powerful you are, the reason why you said this is definitely because you don't understand.
What exactly is going on now?"
"Huh? What do you mean?" Tuoba Yankang looked at Duan Ming doubtfully.
"When it comes to solving a case in the Spiegel Division, the most powerful person is not the criminal commander, but me." Duan Ming said: "As long as I am here, it will take a matter of minutes to solve your case!"
"Divide, divide into what?" Tuoba Yankang was stunned.
"Oh, I mean it's very fast." Duan Ming said with a smile: "We in Da Qi have no intention of looking down on Da Chu. To be honest, Commander Xing is looking for none other than Princess Mingzhu Li Waner and our
Chuhou."
"You may not have heard of Princess Mingzhu's name, but you must know her father, who is King Jing'an."
"King Jing'an!" Tuoba Yankang raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, then why do you think our criminal commander is looking for them? To eat and chat?" Duan Ming asked.
"Is it possible that it's because of this case?" After pondering for a while, Tuoba Yankang said in a deep voice: "Even King Jing'an and Marquis Chu of your country are concerned about this case?"
"Of course, Da Chu is my best friend in Da Qi. The affairs of Da Chu are also the affairs of my Da Qi. We are all half-brothers in a different country and in a different place!" Duan Mingshang said.
He took a step forward and patted Tuoba Yankang on the shoulder: "So, not only King Jing'an, but actually even His Majesty is paying attention to this matter!"
"Ah? Did it reach the ears of your Majesty so quickly?" Tuoba Yankang felt that his brain was completely exhausted... This chapter has been completed!
