Jiang Wu didn't care about these frivolous things. The most important thing now was to see how the body was doing.
Rongan Hall has been sealed, and servants have been sent to form a circle. Jiang Wu entered the room and saw that the old lady's body was lying on the bed. She was lying on her back, and a short knife was pierced in her chest. There was dark red blood.
It showed through the clothes.
"What time is it now?" she asked.
The maid next to her lowered her eyebrows and said, "As for Miss, it's noon now."
Just now, Grandma Liao said that she went to Jiang Qingshan's study angrily in the morning. This time should be Chen hour. Grandma Liao came over as soon as she found the body. Now the time is noon. One hour in ancient times is converted into two hours in modern times.
, then the time when the old lady was killed should be Sishi.
The murderer was brave enough to dare to kill someone in broad daylight.
Jiang Wu originally wanted to conduct a preliminary test by himself, but at this time Jiang Qingshan came to the door: "You don't have to worry about this matter. Just tell the outside world that the old lady suddenly fell ill."
Jiang Wu was a little surprised: "So you don't plan to report to the official position?"
"I'm afraid it will make people laugh if you report the matter to the Marquis Mansion." Jiang Qingshan said calmly.
"But human life is at stake. Since this person will kill the old lady, if we let him stay safe in the house, what if he kills the next person? Besides, the old lady is the second wife. If this matter is dealt with by the second wife in the future,
Knowing that, wouldn't it be another handle?" Jiang Wu's mind was spinning very fast. She knew very well that Jiang Qingshan didn't care about the old lady's life at all. If someone wanted to make this matter bigger, he would probably order the troublemaker to be killed.
People sink into wells.
However, the case has just happened now, and now is the time to solve the case the fastest. The longer the days go by, the faster the evidence will disappear.
She thought that these words were considered from Jiang Qingshan's perspective as much as possible, because he didn't care about the so-called justice. He only cared about whether this matter would affect the reputation of the Hou Mansion, because the old lady was the second wife.
Bian's biological mother died in the third room where she inherited the title. The rumors outside may not be so unpleasant.
In the end, Jiang Qingshan was still unwilling. He just said: "The matter will be revealed here. Notify the second house, just say that there is a sudden illness, and give the old lady a grand burial."
Jiang Wu was stunned.
If he hadn't known it was impossible, his attitude would have made people doubt whether he killed this person.
"But..." Jiang Wu was about to speak but was interrupted again, "Stop being so, go back to your room and rest."
Jiang Wu: "..."
No, we can't just let it go. Besides, there are many aspects worth digging into in this case. The old lady only arrived at the Hou Mansion the night before yesterday. Because it was quite late, she didn't notify the various courtyards to come out to greet her. Yesterday morning, because
She had a quarrel with her about the greetings, and she was probably still angry in the afternoon. However, Jiang Qingshan was not in the house yesterday, so she had no place to complain. It was not until Jiang Qingshan returned to the house this morning that she found a chance. The result of the complaint was probably not good.
It went too well, so she complained to Grandma Liao and then went to sleep again. Then she was killed in her sleep.
"Wait, father——" She called Jiang Qingshan loudly.
"Please give me a few days, father. If I don't report it to the official or make a big fuss at this time, I will receive the punishment after the case is solved." Jiang Wu took a few steps forward, lifted up his skirt, and neatly
Kneeling down, "As long as father doesn't object, I will find this person in two days."
Jiang Qingshan's expression changed several times, and finally he snorted coldly, "Only one day."
"What..." Jiang Wu still didn't react.
Jiang Qingshan said: "I'll give you one day. Before tomorrow night, I want to see the results. If I can't see them, I won't be allowed to investigate this matter again."
Jiang Wu agreed without hesitation.
…
"Examination - The deceased woman was about sixty-eight years old. She died at the age of two. She had developed preliminary rigor mortis, stiffness of the masseter muscles, cervical muscles, and facial muscles. The mandibular joint was fixed. The fatal injury was on the chest. The cause of death was lung disease.
The body was ruptured due to being stabbed with a sharp instrument, resulting in massive bleeding and shock. There were no other wounds on the deceased's body, and microscopic skin flakes were found between the middle fingers."
"In addition, because the deceased was stabbed in the lungs, blood spurted along the trachea, and blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth."
Jiang Wu spoke quickly and wrote ink very quickly, although there were some words she couldn't understand.
The preliminary autopsy has been completed, and the next step is to investigate the scene. The bedroom where the old lady is located is very gorgeous. The room is very large. There are two windows, one on the left and one on the right. The windows are closed from the inside.
There were no footprints in the room, so there is currently no evidence to prove the gender of the murderer.
"Miss, I've sent Baiguo and the others to ask the servants in Rong'an Hall. They all said they didn't see anyone come in just now," Mo Hua said.
I didn't see anyone coming in...something wasn't right.
"What about Aunt Liao? Call her over. I have something to ask her." Jiang Wu wiped her hands. It was not easy to stay at the crime scene to ask questions, so she ordered people to lock the windows and doors of the house.
After he died, he moved a chair outside to ask questions.
Grandma Liao cried so hard that her whole body became weak, and she was dragged by others when she entered the door.
"Mother Liao, please tell me what you said before, without missing any details."
But Grandma Liao just cried and said: "It's useless... Even the old Marquis didn't want to take care of it. Maybe you sneaked in and killed me while I was not in the bedroom! Now you are still pretending to investigate the case.
"
"If you are asked to speak, then speak well. If you keep biting and biting like this, believe it or not, my lady will sell you out!" Mo Hua took a step forward and shouted fiercely.
This girl now has the demeanor of a big maid.
Grandma Liao is an old man who has been working in the house for decades. How can she be intimidated by a little maid? Grandma Liao said "poof", pointed at her and scolded: "You whore.
My old lady's reputation is lost here, and I want to seek justice for my old lady. It was your young lady who made rude remarks yesterday, and today my master is so angry that he is so angry!"
Jiang Wu, even the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, couldn't bear her saying that.
But she didn't want to argue with anyone now. She just knocked on the armrest and said calmly: "Mama Liao, there is no need to rush to seek justice for your master. If this case cannot be solved, you will be buried."
"Sacrificially... buried?" Grandma Liao was confused. She relied on taking care of the old lady, and recently managed to buy a house for her grandson in her hometown. Why was she going to be buried now?
Seeing her confusion, Jiang Wu chuckled and said: "In the final analysis, this old lady has nothing to do with me. If the murderer cannot be found, I will be grounded for two months at most. But you are different. I am grateful for your master-servant relationship.
How about I show your loyalty to your father and let you stay with the old lady for a long time even underground?"
