Mu Yunmeng was very surprised by Xi Honglei's answer. He looked at Xi Honglei's solemn expression intently, and there was no trace of him joking. Mu Yunmeng smiled in confusion and asked: "Where can you go?
?”
"The world is so big, are you afraid that there is no place for me?" Xi Honglei obviously did not regard this question as a difficult problem. He answered Mu Yunmeng's question easily, and then Xi Honglei lowered his head and looked at it silently.
Those scroll information.
The room fell into silence. After a long time, no one said a word. It wasn't until Xi Hong burst into tears that she broke the silence. Zheng Siqi, who had been beside him, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are these documents newly sent to you from the government office?" Xi Honglai raised the things in her hands, handed them to Mu Yunmeng, and asked softly.
After Mu Yunmeng looked at it, he nodded. "Yes, it was just delivered this morning."
Xi Honglei stared thoughtfully at the scroll in Mu Yunmeng's hand, bit her lower lip hard, and asked: "Have you recently gone to see the coroner who went to do the autopsy last time? It was the one who came to Yizhuang with us.
Go."
Mu Yunmeng shook his head, then frowned and asked, "Do you doubt him?"
"If he examined all these corpses, then I have no reason not to suspect him." Xi Honglei frowned and looked at the scrolls on the table, which contained the autopsy information of the victims. "Although
I only examined one corpse, but what this author wrote is completely different from the conclusion I came to. And do you remember the first time we went to Yizhuang? He actually made an obvious mistake
, saying that the woman hanged herself. As a government official, I think he should not say such ridiculous things. Moreover, these cases have not been investigated clearly, so I was wondering if there was any
People within the government are up to something, and they don’t even want to solve this case?"
"Why did he do this?" Zheng Siqi on the side couldn't help but ask after hearing Xi Honglei's eloquent words. When she saw Xi Honglei and Mu Yunmeng looking at her, Zheng Siqi couldn't help but close her eyes.
He closed his mouth and looked elsewhere.
"I don't know the specific reason, but I suspect that he is coveting the beauty of these people." Xi Honglei kept recalling the little impression that the work left on her in her mind, and cautiously speculated.
It requires a strong psychological quality for a person to be a coroner and to be qualified for the position of coroner. Just like a modern forensic doctor, ordinary people can't help but feel sick and vomit the moment they see a corpse, but a coroner is different.
.In modern times, there are many people who know the law and break the law, and it is not uncommon for them to be forensic doctors but kill people. In addition to their good psychological quality, they also have some extreme ideas. Xi Honglei is more willing to directly say that they are psychological
Abnormal. After all, people who deal with corpses every day will never be the same as ordinary normal people.
"If it is really him, what are you going to do?" Mu Yunmeng thought for a while and asked aloud: "If we can't get evidence, we can't arrest him and bring him to justice."
"It's been a while since these cases. Except for the traces that can be found on the last corpse, I have given up hope on the corpses that passed through his hands. If it is really this person, he
All the evidence must have been wiped clean. So I thought it would be better to go back and find the evidence, rather than create some new evidence."
Xi Honglei looked at Mu Yunmeng with a smile on her lips, and said a method that Mu Yunmeng didn't expect. "I'll be the bait to lure him into committing the crime. It's a good idea, isn't it?"
"You?" Mu Yunmeng raised his eyebrows, glanced up and down at Xi Honglei, and asked with a chuckle: "Why do you think he will take action against you?"
Mu Yunmeng's words made Xi Honglei slightly unhappy. He curled his lips, Xi Honglei held his chin with one hand, narrowed his eyes and looked directly at Mu Yunmeng. "As for whether I look good or not, I don't want to talk to you.
Discuss. I put myself at risk to help you investigate the case, so you'd better not sit aside and watch it if it has nothing to do with you. I can help you once or twice, but I can't help you all the time."
"It's you who wants to win Leng Xiao, not me." Mu Yunmeng shrugged helplessly at Xi Honglei's dissatisfaction. Then he leaned on the back of the chair with his hands folded and asked again: "Why?
you?"
"He has been so honest recently, so he must have been alert. After staying in the government office for such a long time, I don't think he is so stupid that he doesn't know how to control himself. But do you remember that time when I refuted him in Yizhuang? What if?
If it were me, I think he might get angry and do something to me. Of course, this is just my speculation. Now we have no other way, and this is the only thing we can do."
After Xi Honglei set the target on Na Zuo, he immediately started taking action. He pushed Mu Yunmeng to go to the Yamen to find the information about Na Zuo, while Xi Honglei and Zheng Siqi sat in the room, waiting for Mu Yunmeng to return.
Yunmeng comes back.
"Aren't you afraid of death?" Zheng Siqi looked at Xi Honglei's side face and asked in a low voice: "The other party is a murderer who has killed several people. Aren't you afraid of dying at his hands?"
"I have your protection, what are you afraid of?" Xi Honglei raised the corners of his mouth, smiled slightly, and met Zheng Siqi's eyes with side eyes. "I am still useful to Leng Xiao, and he will not be willing to let me die now. If it is true,
When he dies, he becomes white again."
At least, she no longer had to bear the pain Leng Xiao had caused her.
Xi Honglei swallowed the last words back into her stomach and did not say them out. She has always been a person who is unwilling to admit defeat. It was the same before, and it is the same now. The reason for making this suggestion is that Xi Honglei knew that Leng Xiao would definitely arrange it.
People come to protect themselves, and Mu Yunmeng and the others will not sit idly by. In addition, Xi Honglei will definitely make some preparations herself. She has decided to take time to go to Sigu Mountain to pick medicinal materials as Hua'er said.
There were so many poisons she wanted to prepare, but she was still worried that no one would test the poison for herself...
After nearly an hour, Mu Yunmeng slowly returned to Xi Honglei's sight. Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Mu Yunmeng looked at Xi Honglei and said, "The man's name is Zhang Qiang. He is over three years old.
I'm ten years old. I heard that I got married once before, but my wife ran away with someone in the end. My mother contracted a serious illness and died at the end of last year, and she has been living alone now. She has been a widower for a long time, and almost all the corpses in murder cases over the years have been
It all passed through his hands."
"Since he is such an experienced old man, he is even less likely to make such a low-level mistake." Xi Hong looked at Mu Yunmeng with twinkling eyes. Regarding what he just said, Zhang Qiang's wife once told someone
I ran away, extremely interested.
This is most likely the original reason for Zhang Qiang's psychological distortion, isn't it?
"Where does he live?" Xi Honglei stood up and walked slowly out the door. When he walked to Mu Yunmeng's side, he asked softly.
"The streets of Luocheng in the west of the city." Mu Yunmeng quickly answered Xi Honglei's question. Looking at Xi Honglei's expression, Mu Yunmeng asked hesitantly: "You don't want to go find him now, do you?"
"I'm not that ready to die. I'm just asking casually. I will contact you before taking action and wait for my news."
After Xi Honglei finished speaking, she and Zheng Siqi left the room and disappeared from Mu Yunmeng's sight.
Walking out of Mu Yunmeng's residence, Xi Honglei stretched lazily. Inadvertently catching a glimpse of Zheng Siqi's sharp gaze, Xi Honglei smiled nonchalantly and said, "Come with me for a walk in Sigu Mountain."
Accompanied by Zheng Siqi, Xi Honglei came to Sigu Mountain. Standing on the mountain, Xi Honglei looked at the large patches of herbs at his feet with shining eyes, and couldn't help but feel happy.
"Are you here just for these flowers and plants?" Zheng Siqi asked disdainfully as she saw Xi Honglei squatting down with a happy face, picking the flowers and plants as if they were treasures.
"This is a good thing. You will know about it later." Xi Honglei answered Zheng Siqi's question meaningfully. After collecting enough materials for her to use for a period of time, Xi Honglei returned to Xi Mansion with satisfaction and locked himself up.
Entered the room.
The poison that Xi Honglei used on Zhang Heng last time was Tripterygium wilfordii. Tripterygium wilfordii has insecticidal, anti-inflammatory, and detoxifying effects. It is also used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, tuberculosis, leprosy, etc. So it can be easily obtained in the pharmacy.
You can buy it. But after different preparations, this kind of thing will become poison. The incubation period is usually about 2 hours or earlier, and the general death time is about 24 hours, and no more than 4 days at most.
Poisoning begins with symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain and distension, muscle pain, nose bleeding, vomiting blood, body and cold pill pain, hair loss in the later stage, and inflammation when in contact with the skin. Bleeding from the seven holes is the final fate of the poisoned person.
That day when Zhang Heng was walking on the street, Xi Honglei saw that his hair was sparse, his face was pale, and his exposed skin had changed. She knew that he was not far from death. And the moment she saw Zhang Heng bleeding from the corner of his mouth,
Xi Honglei was even more certain that even if he was not beheaded, he was definitely hopeless.
But today, Xi Honglei accidentally discovered Poison Arrowwood on Sigu Mountain! Poison Arrowwood is one of the most poisonous plant species. The sap is milky white and highly toxic. Once the sap enters the blood through a wound, it will be life-threatening.
Therefore, the ancients often painted it on arrowheads to kill wild animals or enemies. Xi Honglei carefully took back some branches and leaves of poisonous arrowwood, hoping to deal with Zhang Qiang in times of crisis. The poisonous arrowwood sealed his throat with blood.
It is the most suitable.
Xi Honglei filled the blade with the poisonous arrow wood's juice very carefully. After she was done, she quickly cleaned up the mess and hid the dagger. She took the remaining unused ones to the yard, and Zheng Siqi and Hua'er watched in confusion.
Then, everything was set on fire.
"What are you doing?" Zheng Siqi asked with a frown as she looked at Xi Honglei's strange behavior.
"There are bugs on it. It's not fun. It's better to just burn it." Xi Honglei answered Zheng Siqi's question calmly. Then after taking care of the poison arrow wood, he returned to the house again to prepare the remaining ingredients.
