Mystery Case

Chapter 2 Volume 2

Xiang Butou: "Actually, I'm really 22!"

Master Chu: "I don't believe it! A typical old cucumber with green paint."

He Wu said: "Pretend to be tender."

Painter Wei: "Aren't you ashamed to pretend to be a 16-year-old boy at an age?"

Xiang Qiancong went crazy again, put his hands on Master Chu's shoulders and shook violently: "I don't look like I'm 16 years old, just tell me!"

Master Chu fainted: "Why am I always the one who faints..."

Master Chu is a good official.Even though he was extremely unwell, like standing on a small boat on the cusp of the storm, he still persisted to the scene.

Song Ci, a native of the Song Dynasty, said: Prison affairs should not be more important than the Great Rehabilitation, and the Great Rehabilitation should not be more important than the first love, and the first love should not be more important than the test.The investigation of the method by which the murder occurred can also be said to be part of the test, and even the slightest abnormality cannot be ignored.

The man's name is Zhao Renci, and his wife is Zhao Yuanshi. Zhao Renci is a well-known jewelry businessman nearby and has been doing business in Yangzhou for a long time.Zhao Yuan's natal family lived in a neighboring city, and they made their fortunes by betting on stones and engaged in jade trading.

Zhao Renci took Chu Jiangkai to his home.He, the Zhao family, is also considered a little rich, and his house is a rather spacious two-entry courtyard. The master's bedroom is in the backyard.Chu Jiang drove in and saw the woman lying on the bed with no head, the whole bed was stained red with blood, it was very strange.

Chu Jiangkai stopped and tried hard to adapt.Although he has been an official for several years and has seen countless dead people, he is still in awe of corpses.Reluctantly approaching, seeing a pair of simple jade bracelets tightly held by the female corpse, Chu Jiang thought about it for a while, and finally squatted down to study, but after all, he didn't understand jade. After looking at it for a while, he found nothing.But seeing the female corpse's fingers, the knuckles were horribly white, and I don't know if it was because of the rigor or because of the exertion before death.

He Renjue also came to the side of Chu Jiangkai, leaned down and looked at the fingers of the female corpse, her hair hung down on Master Chu's shoulder, with the fragrance of magnolia flowers so faint that it was almost inaudible. The four seasons magnolias are also planted all around. He has lived there for a long time, and it seems that he has also been infected with the fragrance, which is very touching.Master Chu smelled this smell, and his heart seemed to be at peace, no longer afraid.

"Look here," He Renjue's voice suddenly sounded, Master Chu, who was intoxicated, was taken aback, looked up, and it happened that He Wuzuo looked back at him, and by such a coincidence, the closest distance between the two was only a copper coin Master Chu couldn't react when he looked at He Renjue's dark eyes.

But He Renjue quickly turned his head away, so that Chu Jiangkai could only see the black hair on his back.Master Chu looked away in embarrassment and awkwardness, and couldn't help but cast aside himself. Why did he lose his mind like this, but he couldn't help but glance at the way he was seriously examining the corpse, and the soft lines of his side face made his heart skip a beat.Fortunately, he still hadn't forgotten where he was, so he quickly straightened his mind and concentrated on studying the case.

He Renjue looked at the female corpse, but silently put away a few tools without saying anything.When Master Chu saw it, he immediately understood, and shouted, "Is the painter finished?"

The artist carefully drew the scene of the crime without raising his eyes, and said, "No. Give me a quarter of an hour."

Chu Jiangkai stood up, patted his clothes, walked up to Zhao Renci, and asked, "What's the history of the pair of bracelets in Zhao Yuanshi's hands?"

Zhao Renci said, "It was passed down from my family's ancestors. It is only passed down to the eldest daughter-in-law. I usually go out and my daughter-in-law stays at home alone. Firstly, I am afraid of breaking it, and secondly, I seldom wear it out because of fear of unsafe conditions."

Chu Jiangkai murmured, "There are almost no Yuan surnames in Binzhou, so the Zhao Yuan family must be a local, right?"

Zhao Renci said, "Indeed, she is from Fujian, and her family is also in the jade business." Chu Jiangkai nodded and took a general look at the furnishings in the room.The placement of the furniture is not complicated, the only decoration is probably an ancient shelf near the window, on which are placed several antique jade wares, such as emerald cabbage, vases with gold-painted chi patterns and other valuable things.Seeing this, Chu Jiang became suspicious.The bracelet was held in Zhao Yuanshi's hands openly, and the value of the jade on the Bogu shelf was not low, but none of them was lost.He turned his head and said to Zhao Renci, "Take an inventory of the belongings at home and see if you lost them."

Zhao Renci let out a huff, and checked around, but found nothing.

Chu Jiangkai put on an expression of bitterness and hatred. I heard that he would look more serious this way, and said, "That's it..." That tone sounded very gentle, and it had nothing to do with words like seriousness.

Chu Jiangkai thought about it and carefully checked those doors and windows, and found that there was no damage.Then he asked Zhao Renci, "When you came, was the door open or closed?"

Zhao Renci didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly said, "It's concealed. The door is the same, and the door of the bedroom is also the same."

That said, it was not an ordinary homicide case.

Master Chu thought for a while, and then asked the artist Wei Gui, "Artist Wei, have you finished painting?"

Painter Wei looked at Chu Jiangkai with the whites of his eyes, and said, "Urge me to paint you as the protagonist of the next painting!"

Master Chu immediately fell silent.

Speaking of which, Lord Chu is a hard-working child.Although he is the biggest official in Binzhou, none of the friends around him regard him as an official. They hang shoulders to shoulders with him and say they are brothers and sisters.

Fortunately, he doesn't have many friends, except for some two who went on a tour, probably only Wu Zuo He Renjue, painter Wei Gui, and doctor Sun Si met.

And painter Wei's strange hobbies, coupled with his fiery temper, made Chu Jiang stay away from him.

Master Chu wandered around for a while, but found nothing.Going out of the house again, I saw a few fisher girls weaving nets in the small courtyard opposite, about seventeen or eighteen years old, so Master Chu walked over and said: "How many..."

Seeing him, the fisher girls blushed and said shyly, "Master Chu, why are you here?"

Master Chu is quite prestigious in Binzhou. It turns out that the No. 1 choice of the man in the dream of an unmarried woman in Binzhou is Yan Hongdu, the richest man in Binzhou, and the second is the governor of Binzhou, Chu Jiang.Now Boss Yan and his family's double-living and double-dwelling touring the mountains and rivers, the top spot on the list also fell to Chu Jiangkai.Master Chu is under a lot of pressure.He already has a goal, and he can only pretend to be stupid when he encounters the current situation.

"Cough..." Chu Jiangkai pretended to cough, and said, "A few sisters, are you familiar with Zhao Yuan's opposite door?"

One of them said: "Her grandma Zhao has a strong body, how can she make friends with us village girls and fisher girls." When she said this, others also echoed and said that yes, Zhao Yuan is very snobbish, and usually disdains to be with her. They are together.

"But..." The other girl hesitated for a moment, and said, "I do know that she has a close relationship with a man."

"what?"

The girls started chirping again——

"It means that man looks good."

"That's right, I bring food boxes every afternoon, and I won't go back until sunset."

"When you enter the door, you are still sneaky and afraid of being seen."

"Tweety has fallen in love with her."

"What are you poking about!"

"He said no, isn't he just asking about someone's background?"

"Hey, let me shave your ears to see if you still dare to talk nonsense!"

"Haha, girl, spare me!"

The girls chatted and frolicked, and Chu Jiangkai felt a little headache when he heard it.But the words of these girls also helped him a little.

"Girl..." Master Chu called in a low voice, one of them turned around and asked, "What else is there for Master Chu, my sisters will tell you everything they know."

"What is the identity of that man?"

"Huh? I don't know. But I remember his appearance." The girl described the man's appearance in detail, and Chu Jiang took a plan.

He said: "Just wait, I will find someone to draw him."

"That should be quick, we'll be leaving when the sun goes down."

Chu Jiang took three steps and two steps, and hurried into Zhao's inner room, but saw that Wei Gui was still painting, so he couldn't help asking: "Wei Gui, have you finished the painting yet?"

Wei Gui glanced at him with a half-smile, and said: "Lord Chu, you..." He stopped suddenly in the middle of his words, and only after a while did he say: "What's the matter?"

"Someone wants you to paint," he briefly explained the matter, Wei Gui smiled and said, "Okay." His eyes were not so good, and Master Chu's back felt chills when he saw it.

Painter Wei has a bad temper, but this one is smiling, in fact, he is laughing out of anger!Master Chu secretly sighed that his life was miserable, and then took a look at He Yuzuo, only to see that he was staring at the female corpse with no expression on his face, while the newcomer "Chongqian" Xiang Butou was standing next to him, not very serious Come up with the idea that "it's not good".

Just as he was about to do so, Wei Gui suddenly stood up, making such a huge noise that Master Chu was solidly startled.He looked over and saw that Wei Gui was skillfully packing up the painting tools, and asked, "Where are the girls you mentioned?"

"This way, this way!" Lord Chu hurriedly brought Wei Painter over

Wei Gui was patient, he listened to the noise of the girls and finished the painting.

"Ah, the painting looks really like it." Tweety said in amazement.Chu Jiang took a look at the finished product, he was indeed a very good-looking man.His facial features are gentle, his body is full of bookishness, but his eyes are protruding. He looks vicious and gentle at the same time. No wonder he attracts girls so easily.

"But what is the identity of this man? His relationship with Zhao Yuanshi seems to be very complicated." Master Chu said to himself, and one of the girls answered, "Isn't that right? Grandma Zhao at the opposite door usually doesn't leave the gate. If you don't step forward, how do you know what kind of guy it is."

Master Chu thought for a while, if it was really this unknown man who committed the crime, what was the reason?The belongings were not lost, but the head of the hostess was lost. It was so bizarre to think about it.

The most urgent task is to find out the identity of this man first, but Binzhou is not a small place, and it is also a wharf, with a huge population flow, so it is not easy to find someone.Master Chu rubbed his head in distress, accidentally caught a glimpse of He Renjue standing there looking at the distant mountains, and suddenly lost his mind.

Forget it, let's go back to the government office and think about it again!
