Warm fragrance cloud around

Cheng Jiangyun seemed to feel the same way as she did. When presenting the case, he specifically mentioned the testimony of several family members of the Fu family. Originally, they still had work to do last night, but Fu Tao, the head of the family, specially gave them money and asked them to take Jianyuanhou with them. The young man went out to have a good meal. If someone really planned it deliberately, at least Fu Tao should know about it.

But now he has become a corpse that cannot speak.

Sincerity Bo is used to fooling around on weekdays, and it seems that he has not yet grasped the seriousness of the situation. In his opinion, cockfighting and running dogs every day is a serious matter. He has no ambitions and ambitions. It is impossible for the temple to find any decent evidence, and there is no reason to continue to detain him. As for the possibility of being maliciously framed, he has never even thought about it.

After seeing his daughter, Uncle Chengyi let go of most of his anxiety. Seeing that the two of them had almost talked, and muttered that they should go home quickly to wash away their bad luck, Lin Junnuan couldn't bear to reject his own father, so he could only blink his clear eyes. Xiang Cheng Jiangyun.

"Uncle, I'm sorry, you can't leave yet." Cheng Jiangyun ruthlessly rejected her request, "This massacre is too brutal, before the truth is thoroughly investigated, in order to avoid public opinion, please stay in Dali Temple for a few days. "

Although she feels sorry for her father, Lin Junnuan can understand Cheng Jiangyun's decision. Now there is no evidence to prove that Bo Chengyi is not the murderer. There may be someone secretly targeting him behind the scenes, and letting him go rashly will definitely attract criticism.Fortunately, Dali Temple is under Master Cheng's control, so she can visit her from time to time without worrying about her father being wronged in prison.

She comforted her father in a soft voice, picked out the driest and cleanest cell for him, and thought about asking Xia He to bring some soft bedding and clothes later. After all, the facilities in the cell were shabby, and she would still be there when she left. He specially stuffed money into the jailers and told them to take good care of Uncle Chengyi.

"Brother Lin, what is the relationship between you and Uncle Chengyi?" A jailer who used to have a good relationship with him was very curious, "Speaking of which, you are all named Lin, so you are not a family?"

Before Lin Junnuan opened his mouth to fool around, Cheng Jiangyun next to him snorted coldly, "Midget your own business, keep your mouth tight." The jailer shrank his neck and dared not speak too much, so as to save her from explaining.

After setting up Uncle Chengyi, the two left the cell and shared the same room after a long absence.There were a lot of books and papers piled up in a mess on the desk, and Lin Junnuan subconsciously packed them up, and continued to ask for information about the case while tidying up.

The six bodies of the Fu family were all found in the main hall of the main house.There must have been a fierce battle in the hall, the tables and chairs fell to the ground, and the teacups and teapots were broken everywhere.The murderer's method of killing was brutal, and almost all of the corpses had more than one wound.The murder weapon was a sharpened kitchen knife. The murderer did not take it away after the murder, but discarded it at the murder scene.According to the wife who helped the cook, the kitchen knife was taken from Fu's kitchen.

After hearing the report, it was true that they did not witness the scene directly. The two came to the Fu family's house together. At this time, many people gathered outside the gate to watch the excitement. In the tragic situation, there was not much condolence for the loss of the neighbors, and the spectators also praised the venue and shouted in amazement, cursing the murderer for a bad death.

The Jingzhao Mansion arranged for officers and soldiers to guard the door to prevent irrelevant personnel from entering. Cheng Jiangyun asked people from Dali Temple to replace them. The defense was stricter than before to ensure that even a fly would not even try to trespass on the scene.

Before he got close to the main house, he smelled the pungent smell of blood. Lin Junnuan had a keen sense of smell, and felt that the stench went straight to his brain. Nose bite the bullet and walk to the hall.When Cheng Jiangyun handed over a handkerchief when he was holding his breath and his face turned red, Lin Junnuan didn't care about being polite, so he took it and tightly covered his nose to feel better.She was in such a hurry when she went out that she forgot to put on her handkerchief.

The blood of the family blended and infiltrated without distinguishing each other. Eyes are dazzling scarlet. The corpses have not been transported away, and they are scattered in the hall. The faces of the dead are covered by blood. The tables and chairs that fell on the ground were also soaked in the splashed blood, and the carved patterns could no longer be seen from their original appearance.Being in it is like being in hell on earth.

Even though Lin Junnuan had a rough nerve, after seeing this tragic scene, he still ran out of the room and retched for a long time before recovering. The other people in Dali Temple were not much better than her. Although Cheng Jiangyun didn't seem to have any obvious reaction , but his face was darker than the night.If Uncle Cheng had planned such a tragedy just to put blame on him, the murderer would be damned.

Lin Junnuan was very puzzled as to whether his father, who had always been doing nothing, really offended such a cruel person.

After taking several deep breaths at the flowers and plants in the yard, she covered her nose and stepped into the room again.Cheng Jiangyun was already arranging for someone to move the corpse, she couldn't help, and focused on observing the furniture in the room.

There are two mahogany grand master chairs on the main seat in the hall, and there is a mahogany table in the center. It may be because it is far away from the place where the murderer committed the crime, but the grand master chair was not spattered with blood.There should have been three high-ranking chairs and two small square tables on the left and right sides, but the tables and chairs were overturned during the fight, and the blue and white porcelain used for decoration on the back side was also broken in a pool of blood.The hall is covered with a carpet of dark golden auspicious cloud patterns, which symbolizes good luck, but unfortunately it is also stained with blood so that the original appearance cannot be seen.

When the murderer committed the crime, the members of the Fu family should have been awake. There were messy palm prints or footprints on the ground, tables and chairs. There was no way to detect fingerprints in ancient times. Lin Junnuan could only judge based on the size of the palm prints. The one who struggled the most should be It was Fu Tao's eight-year-old daughter.

"Did anyone hear a strange sound last night?" With such a rampant murder, it is impossible for the victim not to call for help. She also asked Uncle Chengyi this question in Dali Temple just now, but it is a pity that Uncle Chengyi fell asleep too dead after being drunk, and was stunned. heard nothing.

Cheng Jiangyun shook his head regretfully, "The servants are not here, and the neighbors also went to bed early yesterday. The caller said that he heard screams, and thought it was a wild cat, so he didn't take it to heart."

"What time?"

"Second watch, around Haishi (nine to eleven o'clock in the evening)."

The guard carried the corpse and planned to put it in the yard for the autopsy, but Lin Junnuan suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"

She stared straight at the feet of the dead.After a whole night, there is no way to accurately determine the time of death of the dead, but it is still possible to speculate based on the state of the corpses.

The second son, Fu Lang, hardly stepped on blood on the soles of his shoes, but only got a few splashes of blood, so he should be the first to fall down.Then there was his wife, Wang Shi. According to her lying position, after the murderer killed Fu Lang, she tried to block herself with tables and chairs, but she died under the knife in the end.Fu Tao and his wife had wounds on their backs, and they were lying facing the door. They should have been killed when they were about to flee. The bodies of their grandfather and granddaughter were huddled in the corner of the hall. No obvious wounds could be seen. Judging from their faces, they were probably strangled or killed. Smothered.

Of course, this is just her speculation, and the specifics will depend on the results of the autopsy.

Lin Junnuan was very concerned about one thing. There was blood all over the room, but there were no bloody footprints leading to the door. The murderer probably left with bare feet or changed shoes after the murder. This created a new situation. The question is, if the murderer intends to blame Uncle Chengyi, why not just make a bloody footprint leading to his guest room before changing his shoes?Or wouldn't it be more convincing to stain some blood on Cheng Yibo's clothes?

Could it be that the murderer didn't set the blame on purpose, but that Uncle Cheng was unlucky enough to run into a murder case?

Just as he was deep in thought, there was a piercing wail from outside the gate.

"What's going on?" Lin Junnuan frowned and looked at Cheng Jiangyun. He called his subordinates to go out and have a look. Not long after, his subordinates brought a young man in.

"It is said that it is the youngest son of this family. He just returned to Beijing from another place today."

Fu Hao, the youngest son of the Fu family, rushed over immediately after entering the door, weeping with his arms around his father's body, "My son is unfilial, my son is unfilial, why didn't he come back sooner!"

If you had come back one day earlier, you might be lying here now, Lin Junnuan complained silently, squinting his eyes to observe Fu Hao's movements carefully.He hugged his father and cried so loudly, but it seemed as if he didn't find the bodies of the two elder brothers next to him. The relationship between the three brothers was probably not very good.

After crying for a while, his father, Fu Hao may have also discovered the omission, and symbolically cried his brother, sister-in-law and niece one by one, but with the previous impression, Lin Junnuan always felt that it was hypocritical.

Fu Hao didn't come back sooner or later. He came back right after his family died. The timing itself was very delicate.

Seeing that he was almost crying, Cheng Jiangyun ordered someone to help him up and take him to the side hall, where several servants of the Fu family were also waiting for questioning.Regarding Fu Hao's sudden return, most of the servants were stunned. They murmured in whispers about why the third master had returned. Lin Junnuan guessed that there might be something hidden in it.

Not to mention, there is only one single seedling left in the Fu family, and all the money in the house and shop belongs to Fu Hao. Based on this alone, he has a very strong motive to kill.

Cheng Jiangyun began to question everyone, but she couldn't get in the mouth, so she just listened and sorted out her thoughts, trying to piece together the whole picture of the case.

At noon yesterday, the Eldest Master Fu Tao asked someone to bring back the news that a banquet will be held to welcome Uncle Chengyi in the evening. According to the calculations of several women in the kitchen, the opening time of the banquet is about Youzheng, which is a little later than the meal time of Fu's family in the past, and the dishes will be served. Later, Fu Tao specifically explained that this meal might last very late, and asked them to go home and rest first, and then clean up the next day.

Surprisingly, Uncle Chengyi passed out after drinking a few glasses of wine, and the Fu family could not leave the guests aside to eat and drink. Even so, Fu Tao was still in a good mood, and gave everyone a holiday with a wave of his hand.

"You mean, the leftover food and drinks from yesterday haven't been cleared yet?" Lin Junnuan couldn't help but ask when she thought of this, and the mother-in-law nodded timidly.

She glanced at Cheng Jiangyun for advice, Cheng Jiangyun nodded in agreement, and Lin Junnuan rushed to the kitchen.

It is late autumn now, and the night is very cool. The food has not gone bad after being left all night, but it seems that cockroaches and mice have visited at night, and many leftovers have been pulled out of the plate, making it smelly everywhere.

Lin Junnuan found a few wine bottles from the dishes, uncorked them one by one, smelled them and took a look.There is a small amount of white powder remaining at the bottom of one of the wine bottles, which is most likely a drug.

The reason why Uncle Chengyi, who has always been a scary drinker, got drunk so quickly may not be drunk, but fainted.
