I am the best in the world with the crime solving system

Ma Huai was among the people to be investigated today.

Ma Huai.

This is the object Chen Chaoyan wanted to investigate a few days ago.

After breakfast, go to the investigation site.After checking the first two in a step-by-step manner, Chen Chaoyan walked into Ma Huai's house.

Ma Huai's house is huge, with four entrances and four exits vertically and vertically.Taking the criss-cross center as the axis point, the mansion is divided into four equal parts. Ma Huai's family lives in the northeast part; his uncle's family lives in the northwest part; The one to the southwest.The remaining part in the southeast direction is the public area, which is used to receive foreign guests and so on.

Seeing the small from the small, from the layout of the southwest, one flower and one grass are equally divided, it can be seen that the business of Ma's drugstore is very good.

I don't know if the business is simply good, or it is because of the protection of the judicial history of Ma Huai, the county guard, that the business has become good.

In short, because of Xie Xuan's presence, everyone in the Ma family was very polite.

Referring to the floor plan of Ma's house displayed on the light screen, it took another half an hour to arrange the inspection task. After the public area was inspected, Ma Huai's aunt suddenly brought out an eighteen-inch wooden box with enthusiasm. They stuffed themselves towards Chen Chaoyan.

From the gap in the wooden box she opened, it can be seen that it contains a ginseng with many thin whiskers.Chen Chaoyan didn't know how to tell the age of the ginseng, but judging from the way Aunt Ma Huai stuffed her ginseng and kept looking at Xie Xuan from the corner of her eye, the age of this ginseng might not be low.

Of course Chen Chaoyan would not want her ginseng.After clearly expressing her refusal, but she still refused to let her go, Chen Chaoyan said intentionally: "I appreciate Madam's kindness, but I don't want this gift. I won the position of case-solving officer because of the prince's trust. If I accept This bribe, I'm afraid I won't have to wait until tomorrow, I will end up with Mr. Song!"

Uncle Ma Huai looked at Xie Xuan awkwardly, "How can this be bribery, it's just a little care on my part."

He said so in words, but he didn't dare to be as tough as before in action.

Chen Chaoyan took two steps back at the right time, nodded slightly at her, then turned around and followed the yamen servant into the courtyard where Ma Huai's family lived.

The courtyard where Ma Huai's family lives is a large courtyard surrounded by two small courtyards. According to Ma Huai's mother's introduction, Ma Huai and his younger brother live in a courtyard to the east. Ma Huai's father and mother are still seven years old. My younger sister lives in a courtyard in the north.From the floor plan shown on the light screen, it can be clearly seen that the yard where Ma Huai's family lives is full of herbs inside and out.Occasionally seen trees and artificial hills are also planted for the environment of herbal medicine to prevent forest growth.

After getting a general idea of ​​the layout of the house where Ma Huai's family lived, Chen Chaoyan turned to look at Ma Huai's mother, the Second Madam.

Ma Huai's father was not there, saying that he had gone out to collect herbs a few days ago.Ma Huai was not there either. He was also one of the people who were exposed in the recent complaints.His younger brother Ma Kui was also away, studying at the county school.The only Mrs. Ma who was there took her seven-year-old daughter and followed them nervously, accompanied by uncle Ma Huai, uncle, uncle and aunt who came back specially.

After routinely listening to everyone's confessions and confirming that there were no problems or omissions, Chen Chaoyan asked the seven yamen servants who followed him to search the two medicine fields outside the courtyard in a direction from east to north.

After the servants dispersed, she also entered the medicine field.

The herbs in the medicine field are divided into pieces according to their medicinal properties.Judging by the softness of the soil, it should have been turned over in the last four or five days.

Ma Huai's uncle, Ma Wenda, and younger uncle, Ma Wenli, were courting Xie Xuan in every possible way. Chen Chaoyan was impatient to hear their chirping, so she quickened her pace and walked to the front.

Xie Xuan looked at her, but didn't chase after her, only motioned Ruolan to follow and protect her.

"The Ma family is really big." Yue Jian glanced back to make sure that no one from the Ma family had followed, and said in a low voice.

Ruolan glanced around and agreed, "It's really not small."

Chen Chaoyan focused on searching for clues, but did not answer their words.

Yue Jian followed her to look left and right a few times, and then said: "Such a big place, if you really want to hide one or two pieces of evidence, it shouldn't be easy to find."

Ruolan said succinctly: "Ms. Chen must be troubled."

While speaking, several people had reached the alley between the courtyard house where Ma Huai and Ma Kui lived and the wall.

The Jiaxiang is very wide, almost six feet long.

On one side of the wall, a row of maple and poplar trees are neatly planted.

In the medicine fields reclaimed under the maple and poplar trees, Pinellia and Yuanhu are planted.

Chen Chaoyan walked along the narrow path in the medicine field, and as soon as he reached the position opposite the window, the yamen servant who had already reached the north alley called out: "Miss Chen, there is something wrong here!"

Chen Chaoyan immediately rushed over with her skirt in hand.

When the yamen servants saw her coming, they all said, "Miss Chen, look quickly, there is something wrong with Yuanhu here!"

Chen Chaoyan looked in the direction of their fingers, and saw that the center of the medicine field planted with Yuanhu had died inexplicably.That piece is about a square in size.The reason for the withering is obviously caused by lack of water, but looking at the soil in that piece, it is obviously softer than other places!

There is a problem with this piece of land!

After taking a look at Xie Xuan and the others who also rushed over, Chen Chaoyan ordered: "Dig it out and see what's in the soil!"

The Yamen servants immediately moved after hearing the order.

Ma Wenli hurried forward to stop him, but a human hand was exposed in due course.

Ma Wenli immediately backed away in shock, "How could..."

"What's there?" Ma Wenda also came forward.Seeing the corpse that had been dug out, he was also shocked and took two steps back, then immediately turned around and asked Mrs. Ma, "Why are there dead people here?"

Covered by maple and poplar trees, coupled with the coolness of the soil, the corpse has just begun to decompose. Although the stench of corpses is obvious, it has not yet reached its peak.

So with just one glance, Chen Chaoyan recognized the identity of the corpse: Li Er!

Li Er's portrait had long been plastered all over the streets and alleys. After the yamen servants dug up his body and dragged it out of the mud pit, everyone in the Ma family recognized him instantly.

"This, isn't this Li Er?" Mrs. Ma San held her nose and said in shock.

The second Mrs. Ma's legs went limp the moment she saw the yamen servant dragging the corpse out.Relying on the support of the mother-in-law, he barely stopped.Hearing Mrs. Ma's words at this moment, her legs softened, her eyes darkened, and she passed out.

"Second sister-in-law!"

"Brother and sister!"

Mrs. Ma and Mrs. Ma immediately helped her up.

The mother-in-law and maidservants also rushed up in a panic.

Almost instantly, it became a mess.

Chen Chaoyan had no time to pay attention to them.

Her eyes fell on Li Er's body.

Li Er's complexion was black and blue, his eyes were protruding, and his lips and nails were bruised and purple.The cable groove on the neck is located at the Adam's apple, the stress around the neck is even, and the color is consistent.This is typical strangulation.

Taking out a handkerchief and wrapping it around his hands, Chen Chaoyan took a few steps forward, ready to examine the corpse up close.Seeing this, Yuejian quickly stopped her and asked her to wait for a while, then took out a mask from her pocket and handed it to her, "You said you wanted to draw me a mask pattern, but you haven't drawn it yet. This is according to my own ideas. Sew it, and try to see if it fits."

Chen Chaoyan should be fine.

The mask she made is similar to modern masks, except that the ear-hanging type is changed to a tie-up type.In addition, I don't know what kind of medicinal material she put in the inner layer of the mask. After wearing it, the refreshing fragrance instantly blocked the smell of the corpse.

After fastening the straps and telling her that the mask was fine, Chen Chaoyan's attention fell on the corpse again.

After pressing the exposed arm of the dead body, the muscles have become limp, and it is obvious that the dead body has been dead for more than 48 hours.In addition, the cornea has been severely clouded, and the corpse spots distributed on the right side of the right leg, right arm, and right side of the body will not fade, which can further prove that he died for more than 48 hours, and that he He was buried in the pit within an hour of his death.

Putting away the handkerchief, Chen Chaoyan stood up and looked around. When the yamen servants came over, they didn't know that Li Er's body was buried here, so the scene was not protected, and all footprints were destroyed.

but……

This is the courtyard where Ma Huai's family lives, and this is the backside of the courtyard house where Ma Huai and his younger brother Ma Kui live. The murderer will not be anyone else except their family.

Looking at the corpse again, Chen Chaoyan ordered the yamen servant, "Leave two people to bring the corpse back to the yamen, and the rest will continue to search."

The yamen servants were very active, scrambling to deliver the corpse.

Chen Chaoyan did not stop their performance, but went to the front to search first.

After Xie Xuan took a look at her, he ordered Lingyou in a cold voice, "Go back to the county guard's mansion immediately and inform Lord Feng, so that he can arrest the Ma clan immediately!"

Mausoleum travel should be, with a little tiptoe, people will go away like a fright.

By the time everyone in the Ma family reacted, they had already disappeared.

"My lord, please be kind, the grass people didn't know that Li Er was buried here..." Ma Wenda and Ma Wenli, who were the first to react, quickly knelt on the ground and begged Xie Xuan for mercy, "This is the yard of the second family, and it has nothing to do with us. "

"Save these words and tell Master Feng." Xie Xuan motioned Chonglou to stay and watch them, and chased after Chen Chaoyan.

Seeing this, the yamen servants who were still arguing immediately left two behind to send the corpse, and the rest followed closely behind.

Chen Chaoyan walked around the perimeter of the courtyard where Ma Huai lived, and then stood at the gate of the courtyard where Ma Huai lived, and ordered the servants who followed: "Go, search carefully."

The Yamen servants should be, and they entered the house one after another.

Chen Chaoyan followed behind them, walking side by side with Xie Xuan, "Judging from the condition of the corpse, Li Er died two days ago."

"Two days ago..." Xie Xuan tapped his palms twice with a jade bone landscape fan, "it was the time when Master Feng ordered the other two slots to also check themselves."

Chen Chaoyan glanced at him, "You suspect that Li Er's death is related to this?"

"No." Xie Xuan vetoed, and said, "You continue."

"No one knew that the body would be found here, so the scene was not protected." Chen Chaoyan said as he walked, "Whether we can get other evidence to confirm that Ma Huai is the murderer depends on the search..."

Before the words were finished, the yamen servant who entered the house to search called out, "Miss Chen, I found the hemp rope that strangled Li Er!"
