Chapter 155 Eight Treasures Makeup 09
Bo Ruoyou got up in the morning and was having breakfast when there was a knock on the door of the house.
She was a little surprised, and soon she saw Hou Yang coming in from the outside with sweat all over his head. Bo Ruoyou stood up and took two steps to greet him, “Why are you here so early? But what did the arrester find out last night?”
Bao Ruoyou knew that Wu Xiang had captured the suspect and found the coffin nails. Seeing Hou Yang coming in such a hurry, he thought that the murderer had a clue. However, Hou Yang took a breath and said, “No, girl. There has been another murder in the Aviary. The policeman sent me to ask you to come over and do an autopsy——”
Bo Ruoyou’s heart instantly sank to the bottom. While asking Zhou Liang to get the autopsy box, he asked: “How did the deceased die?”
Hou Yang said with a pale face: “He was pierced through the head with a nail.”
Bo Ruoyou’s knuckles in his sleeves suddenly clenched, and he shuddered for a moment. A nail penetrated his head. Isn’t this a way to torture and kill the blood sparrow?
Getting into the carriage, Bo Ruoyou went straight to the Bird Garden.
When they arrived at the Bird Garden, Wu Xiang was already waiting at the door. He interrogated Song Zhongming in the middle of the night last night. His eyes were now black and black, and there was half a stubble on his chin. When he saw Bo Ruoyou coming, he wiped his face and woke up. God just stood up to greet him.
Bao Ruoyou couldn’t help but ask: “Didn’t you catch a man hiding coffin nails yesterday?”
Wu Xiang cursed in a low voice, “It’s a bird tamer. He later confessed, saying that what was hidden inside was not coffin nails, but money earned from chewing grass and other birds in the garden. , about a hundred taels of silver, had been hidden in the warehouse, but I didn’t expect that the silver disappeared, but turned into a nail in the coffin, and was captured by the Yamen.”
Bo Ruoyou was greatly surprised when he heard this, “The money was exchanged for coffin nails?”
Wu Xiang nodded, “We are investigating this matter, but early in the morning recently, the servants in the garden discovered that another person had died, and his suspicion was completely eliminated. As for whether he was greedy for money, it is secondary.”
Bao Ruoyou pondered for a moment, “Did the murderer deliberately want to transfer you away?”
Wu Xiang gritted his teeth and said: “That’s probably true. I was careless. After I caught the person, I thought he was the murderer. There were only two people left in the garden last night. After the night, they also rested. , I didn’t know something happened in the garden. If I had known it earlier, I should have left people everywhere to guard it as before.”
Bo Ruoyou raised his eyes and looked at the lush Aviary Garden. Both cases happened in the middle of the night. It was already certain that he was someone in the garden. However, there were almost a hundred people in the garden. The murderer was very thoughtful while hiding. , it is really difficult to deal with, “The murderer would use such tricks to lure the tiger away from the mountain. It is indeed quite skillful. Who is the deceased? Where did he die?”
“The deceased’s name was Ye Fei, who was also an opera performer in the garden. As I said yesterday, several of them studied under a master. Ye Fei was also one of them. He died on the rockery beside Yuehu Lake. among.”
Bao Ruoyou recalled carefully, “Ye Fei, when I asked Yu Xun’s boy that day in the garden, he mentioned this person and said that this person can also tie the auspicious knot on Yu Xun’s belt.”
“Yes, I did mention it.” Wu Xiang said coolly: “Liu Qing, Ye Fei, and a man named Chen Mo, as well as a steward of the bird garden, together with Yu Xun and Jiang Xing’s little I took them back to the Yamen for careful interrogation. They were released early yesterday morning. In the afternoon, I got the news and found the coffin nails to pick them up. No one expected that something would happen in the evening.”
“The murderer must have been waiting for this moment. He had set a target long ago. He wanted to wait for Ye Fei to come back before framing Song Zhongming. He took advantage of the fact that most of the government officials in the park were gone and took action boldly.”
Wu Xiang said in a deep voice: “This man first predicted that he would kill someone, and even the method of killing. We were on guard for several days, but we still let him make a move. After nightfall last night, there was nothing in the garden. People were walking around, and this Ye Fei even took a rest early, but he didn’t know how to get out of his yard.”
After a slight pause, Wu Xiang said: “What killed Ye Fei was a coffin nail. You will know it later when you see it.”
Bo Ruoyou nodded, and the two of them walked along the path to the bank of Yuehu Lake. When they arrived, they saw that the officials had surrounded the rockery, and the Prince of Nan’an County stood outside with a white face, and two attendants One on the left and one on the right supporting him who was crumbling.
Seeing Bo Ruoyou and Wu Xiang, the Prince of Nan’an County said: “You should catch the murderer as soon as possible. This is too scary. I won’t be here for the next few days. If you need anything, just ask the supervisor.” After this time, my garden will also be destroyed by the murderer!”
He wiped the sweat on his face with a handkerchief with trembling hands, but the cold sweat dripped down as if it could not be wiped clean. Bo Ruoyou looked at him, shook his head and walked towards the hole guarded by the Yamen. .
This rockery is more than two feet high, with dwarf pines planted on it. It is a wonderful sight in the garden. The center of the rockery is hollow, and a corridor with a height of more than half a person is passing through it. Wu Xiang took the lead and entered the corridor. As he walked away, the officer following behind said: “The Prince of Nan’an County went in just now to see the deceased. He was almost fainted from fright. We were the ones who carried him out.”
Bo Ruoyou pursed her lips and said nothing. Soon, she smelled the smell of blood.
The corridor is not high, so even she has to lean forward a little. It is dark inside, with bright light pouring in from the occasional hollow. There is an uneven stone road under her feet. After turning a corner, Bo Ruoyou looks at Arriving at the body lying on the ground.
This is a hollow stone chamber measuring one foot square in the heart of the mountain. It is quite high above the head. Everyone can finally stand up straight and enter through the entrance. The exit is right in front, which is also a dark corridor half a person’s height.
Lying on the ground is a young man with his hands and feet tied. He is lying half-curled on the ground. A sharp coffin nail penetrates the temple on the right side, passes through the entire skull, and stabs the temple on the left side. The blood flowed down the wound and formed a lake of blood in the low-lying area under the body of the deceased. Since the place was not well ventilated, the smell of blood gathered here, making it pungent and nauseating.
Even though Bao Ruoyou had seen many cruel methods of killing, when he saw the corpse, he could not help but feel chills in his heart. It was strange that Zhao Yue could be frightened and fainted.
Because the light was dim, a yamen official lit a torch. Bo Ruoyou put on her gauntlet, held up her embroidered mouth, and stepped forward to examine the body.
The body of the deceased was still a little stiff, and blood flowed down his forehead, covering his face. Bo Ruoyou removed the blood stains on his face, and first checked the head, face and body surface. Soon, Bo Ruoyou said: “The eye mask of the deceased There were a small amount of blood streaks and white dot-like turbidity, which did not spread significantly. The corpse spots were dark purple-red and did not fade with acupressure. They were mainly distributed on the left side of the body. The deceased should have been stabbed sideways by the murderer with coffin nails, and then maintained this posture. He had not moved, his whole body was stiff, and his body was as hot and cold as here. Preliminary speculation is that the time of death of the deceased should be around midnight last night.”
After Bao Ruoyou finished speaking, Wu Xiang ordered the yamen on the side to take note. After briefly checking her neck, hands and feet, she then carefully looked at the wound on her head where the coffin nail had penetrated. The blood foam had already formed on the wound. After Bo Ruoyou carefully cleaned the scab, the **** wound was exposed. Cheng Yunzhi said that the human forehead is the most vulnerable place, and now this coffin nail was inserted from here.
After half a stick of incense, Bo Ruoyou straightened up, “The flesh and blood at the wound curled inward. The deceased was nailed here alive with coffin nails. This injury was also a fatal injury. The coffin nails were brand new, and there were seven The length of the coffin is much longer than the coffin nail used to kill the bird last time. The murderer must have planned this and prepared longer coffin nails early in the morning.”
The coffin nails were also stained with blood. Bo Ruoyou looked at them carefully for a moment, “The diamond-shaped carvings on the top of the coffin nails have some slight signs of wear…” She thought for a moment, “What did the murderer use to seal the coffin?” The nails were smashed into the temples of the deceased. Although the temples were fragile, it was not easy for the coffin nails to pass through the head. The murderer must have used something like a hammer, stones, etc.”
The time of death was at Zishi, which was almost the same as Yu Xun’s death time. The method of killing this time was exactly the same as the method of killing the blood sparrow with a nail in the coffin. Now it can be concluded that the murderer was indeed foreshadowing the murder.
Wu Xiang showed a solemn look that he had not seen in a long time, “I searched his garden and saw no signs of fighting, but his hands and feet were tied up. What do you think?”
Bao Ruoyou leaned forward to look at the knot, “The rope is tied with a slip knot, and it is a very common three-set knot. Anyone who has done a little binding or other work can tie such a knot. The murderer will die. His hands and feet were **** in order to make him suffer the pain of being crucified alive.”
Having said this, Bo Ruoyou checked the mouth and nose of the deceased. “There was also a lot of blood in the mouth and nose of the deceased, which must have penetrated the meninges and overflowed. In addition, there were many scratches in the mouth of the deceased, which must have been caused by stuffing. Don’t let him speak out.”
Hearing Bo Ruoyou said that the murderer wanted the deceased to suffer the pain of being crucified, everyone felt their scalps numb. At this time, Bo Ruoyou frowned, “Except for a few scratches on the deceased, there were no visible signs of death. There were other external injuries, and the knots on his wrists and ankles were also very strong, but there were no signs of struggle on his hands, as if the deceased had been **** unconsciously.”
Bao Ruoyou looked at Wu Xiang, “Check what Ye Fei ate and drank last night. I suspect that the deceased was unconscious before he was kidnapped here.”
