The Brocaded Tale of The Girl Si

There was no news of Qiu Lu for a while, and Zhen Shicheng focused his attention on the autopsy situation.

Mrs. Yongchangbo was not killed with one blow, but had several wounds. In this case, wouldn't she make a sound to wake up Yongchangbo who was sleeping beside him?

Zhen Shicheng pondered this question, and his eyes fell on Jiang Si unconsciously.

Will this little girl who went straight to the closet and found important clues in the first place know anything?

Maybe he should listen to her thoughts.

Thinking of this, Zhen Shicheng strode towards Jiang Si.

Xie Qingyao thought that Zhen Shicheng was asking her questions, and his lips moved: "Sir—"

Zhen Shicheng smiled gently: "Miss Xie, don't be nervous, I have something to ask Miss Jiang."

Jiang Si smiled: "What do you want to ask, Lord Zhen?"

"Miss Jiang, let's take a step to talk."

"Ashi—" The sudden pain of losing his mother made Xie Qingyao extra dependent on Jiang Si.

Jiang Si comfortably patted the back of Xie Qingyao's hand, and followed Zhen Shicheng to the distance.

Xie Qingyao watched as the two walked to a distant tree and stood still. Then he retracted his gaze and walked to Xie Yinlou's side. He said anxiously, "Brother, what do you think Master Zhen wants to ask Ashi?"

Xie Yinlou's eyes were still chasing the slender figure, and he said in a low voice, "Maybe she asked how she discovered the abnormality in the wardrobe."

This is what Zhen Shicheng wanted to ask. Jiang Si listened to the silence for a moment and said frankly: "I smell a strange fragrance, and the source of that strange fragrance is the wardrobe."

"Idiosyncratic fragrance?" Zhen Shicheng remembered the smell of blood in the room, he couldn't help shaking his head, and looked at Jiang Si with surprise, "How did Miss Jiang smell it? I just stayed there for a while, and smelled everything except the smell of blood. not."

Thinking about it carefully, there was indeed a faint scent lingering in the wardrobe, and he thought it was the incense that women are used to.

Jiang Si blinked and said in a playful tone, "Perhaps the little girl is gifted."

Zhen Shicheng smiled.

He didn't think Jiang seemed to be fooling him.

I have been an official for many years, and I have seen too many people and things. There are always some people who are different. Some are unforgettable, and some are born to know. Compared with the little girl in front of me, she just has an outstanding sense of smell, which is already considered unusual.

However, this talent is really unique for solving cases.

Zhen Shicheng stared at Jiang Si, wishing that his son would quickly trick the little girl into going home, er, no, he was married, and he would be able to follow suit in the future.

"Miss Jiang, this officer has a question that I want to discuss with you." Jiang Shi's unusualness made this highly capable third-rank officer invisibly put her on an equal position.

"Master Zhen, please speak." Jiang Xi did not show any flattered feeling, but still looked calm.

From the past life to the present life, she has learned a lot and changed a lot, but she is still not good at how to flatter people and set things up.

This is probably due to her nature. She has never been a woman with long sleeves and good dance, but a stupid girl who is a bit arrogant and stubborn and loves to make small tempers.

"Under what circumstances, the victim has been attacked many times without making a sound to alarm the people sleeping beside him?" Zhen Shicheng already had guesses in his mind, but he liked listening to other people's opinions and verifying each other.

If the two guess the same, it is undoubtedly a very happy thing.

Jiang Si was not surprised by the question raised by Zhen Shicheng, and calmly said what was in his heart: "The little girl thinks it is some kind of incense. The murderer wants not to disturb the person sleeping beside the victim, but only makes the victim silent. It can't be foolproof, after all, everyone's sleep situation is different, some people still sleep nothing until dawn even if it thunders and rains, and some people don't need to hear any sound, and the unpleasant smell can wake him up. So I think the biggest possibility is that both Yong Changbo and his wife inhaled some kind of incense at that time, so that the murderer successfully completed the plan of killing and framing."

Zhen Shicheng nodded again and again, patted his palms and said, "That's right, this is the greatest possibility!"

Jiang Si frowned and thought for a while, and said, "The little girl has another guess."

"You said." Zhen Shicheng's attitude towards Jiang Si became more and more serious.

"The incense may be ignited by the murderer hiding in the closet, so the aroma left in the closet is the heaviest."

Jiang seemed to be wondering what that peculiar scent was from the very beginning. If it was the scent of the dew on the murderer's body, it was unlikely that it would stay indoors for so long.

When she heard the post-mortem situation of the girl, she suddenly became enlightened, and suddenly thought of what the most likely thing is.

"It's just that the little girl can't understand a little bit. If she ignites the incense in the wardrobe, how can the murderer ensure that the incense will not be harmed by the incense?"

Zhen Shicheng stroked his beard and said, "There are many kinds of incense sticks. Since the murderer uses it, he must have taken precautions in advance."

As the two were talking, a yamen hurriedly ran over: "Sir, someone has been found!"

Zhen Shicheng immediately stopped communicating with Jiang Si and asked, "Where is the person?"

"In the lotus pond in Bofu Garden."

Zhen Shicheng immediately followed his subordinates to the Lotus Pond.

The lotus pond was already full of people. Seeing Zhen Shicheng coming over, the yamen immediately shouted: "Let's all let you, our adults are here."

The crowd parted to make way.

Jiang Si followed behind Zhen Shicheng, and as the crowd moved away, he saw the woman lying by the pool at a glance.

The woman's upper body was lying on the edge of the pool, revealing her swollen side face, her lower body was still immersed in water, her dress was entangled with lotus leaves, and the scene was extremely terrifying.

Xie Qingyao stared at the female corpse by the pool and clenched his hands tightly.

The chatter of the people buzzed.

"It's really Qiu Lu, why did she die here?"

"It's too scary. Maybe it was Qiu Lu who killed his wife and committed suicide."

Xie Qingyao trembled and held Jiang Si's hand. In June, the girl's hand was as cold as ice: "Asi, my mother has always been kind to Qiu Lu, how could she—"

Jiang Xiwei squeezed Xie Qingyao's hand back: "Everything needs to be checked by Master Zhen."

Zhen Shicheng continued to cross-examine while the girl was doing the autopsy.

"Uncle, since it was Qiu Lu's duty last night, haven't you seen her?"

"I see. Although Qiu Lu was on duty last night, my wife sent her down to rest."

"About when?"

Uncle Yongchang thought for a while and said, "It should be at the end of Xu and the beginning of Hai."

Zhen Shicheng glanced at everyone slowly: "Have you seen Qiu Lu since then?"

The maid in the main courtyard couldn't help but look at the big maid Dongxue.

Everyone knows that Mrs. Uncle's four maids slept in the same room, and it was Dong Xue who shared the room with Qiu Lu.

Dong Xue was so frightened that she thumped and knelt down: "My maid Jue Qian, I'm sure Qiu Lu has never come back!"

"In other words, no one has seen Qiu Lu since the beginning of Hai?"

Everyone was silent.

"Speak!" Yongchangbo roared.

At this time, a timid voice came: "There is something, the maid does not know whether to say it or not-"

"But it doesn't matter, everything is up to this official." Zhen Shicheng looked at the maid who spoke.
