Mystery Case

The heavier you are, the more you need to adjust ---

Doctor Sun: When are you going to wake up?

He Wuzuo: When I wake up, this story is over.

Dr. Sun: = 0 = There is nothing wrong with finishing it quickly, you see someone talking so much nonsense.

He Wuzuo: Well then, I'll wake up in the next chapter.

Dr. Sun: So fast?Actually, I’m just talking about it ╮(╯▽╰)╭

He Yuzuo: Master Chu, only I can bully you.

Dr. Sun: 00 I seem to be able to foresee my future (wiping sweat, ready to run away)

Chu Jiangkai inspected Gu Pan's boudoir,

Unlike ordinary girls' boudoirs, Gu Pan's room has no other tables or decorations except the dressing table, probably because she is afraid that it will be inconvenient for her to move.

Gu Pan's maid Die Er followed behind him, her face pale.After Chu Jiangkai called her over, he didn't ask her anything, just walked around on his own, and Die Er, who was at a loss, could only follow him.

After watching for a long time, Chu Jiangkai stopped and turned to look at Die'er.

Die'er was startled and cried out softly.

Chu Jiangkai habitually showed a gentle expression on his face, and said, "What's your name?"

"Servant, servant Die'er." Die'er said tremblingly.

"Die'er, when did you find out that Miss Gu had an accident?" Chu Jiangkai's voice was naturally very soft, and he spoke softly, like a breeze blowing on his face.

The uneasiness in Die'er's heart was soothed by this voice, and she whispered, "It's about Haishi."

"Tell me about the details."

Die'er said, "Miss usually goes to bed at Xu time. She couldn't sleep at night. She said she couldn't sleep. She also said she wanted to eat dessert and asked me to get it, so I went. It happened that there was no kitchen, so I asked the cook to help me make some pastries." When I came back, I saw... saw..." Die Er choked up, unable to speak.

Seeing that she was about to cry, Chu Jiangkai didn't ask any more questions, and waited patiently for her to recover.

"I saw that Miss... is dead." As if this sentence drained all of Die'er's strength, causing her body to sway, Chu Jiangkai hurriedly called for someone to help her sit down first.

Chu Jiangkai asked her, "Where did that pair of scissors come from?"

Die'er wiped away her tears and said, "The lady brought it here because she said she wanted to have her nails trimmed. Normally, the master doesn't allow these sharp objects to be placed in the lady's room for fear of hurting her."

Is it really suicide?Chu Jiang had some doubts in his heart.

First Zhuang Xu, then Gu Xi, and then Gu Pan, there seemed to be a five-element thread between the three of them, which connected them, but Chu Jiangkai couldn't catch that thread.

He recalled seeing Gu Pan with Pei Xinyong this afternoon, she was not unusual, but mistook Pei Xinyong for Pei Xinyong.

What she said at the time was a little puzzling.

"You and Xin Yong are really similar."

It's just that she didn't say what it looked like.

"So, Die'er, are you the last person to see Miss Gu?" After thinking for a moment, Chu Jiangkai asked again.

Die Er nodded, "Miss stayed alone in the room at night, and I waited on her."

"Then did she say anything?"

"No, she was just dazed and preoccupied. I thought she had some conflict with Young Master Pei, so I asked."

"What did you ask?"

"I asked, did Young Master Pei bully Miss? It was just a joke, but how did you know that Miss suddenly changed her face and became angry, and told me not to talk nonsense."

"Is your lady easily angered?"

"Miss has a calm temper and rarely gets angry."

Chu Jiangkai only said that there was some conflict between Xinyong and Gu Pan. He wanted to ask Xinyong to come over and ask about the process, but he didn't want him to see the fact that Gu Pan was dead, so he was struggling endlessly.

Over there, Wei Gui painted a similar scene and asked Chu Jiangkai to pick up the corpse, so Chu Jiangkai had no choice but to put the matter aside.

People are always inseparable from birth, old age, sickness and death, but committing suicide is a serious sin. In Buddhism, those who commit suicide suffer the most, and have to suffer the pain of committing suicide every seven days.

At what point does a person choose to commit suicide?

Chu Jiangkai thought about this question several times in his mind, but he couldn't come up with a result.

For example, that day, when He Renjue was attacked and his life and death were unknown, Chu Jiangkai did not have the idea of ​​committing suicide, he just wanted to crush the murderer.

But Gu Pan's expression when he died was very peaceful, as if she was just leaning on Xiao Tian on the soft couch, and she could wake up with a slight shake. It was obvious that a sharp knife pierced her heart, but she didn't see any pain. Its solution.Unless... she is willing to die.

What is it for?Chu Jiang asked Die Er, "Is there anything different about Miss Gu in recent days?"

Die'er bowed her head and thought for a while, then said, "Miss has always been in a good mood since she met Young Master Pei. It's just that a thief came to the house that day, and after being beaten away, Miss was a little depressed."

"Are you scared?"

"The slave does not know."

Chu Jiangkai stopped asking questions, and instead carefully inspected Gu Pan's body.

In fact, Master Chu still has some respect for the dead. Although he has seen many dead bodies in different ways, it is still difficult for him to get used to it. Involuntarily he began to miss He Renjue.

If you don't love lovesickness in your life, you will love it, and you will suffer lovesickness... Master Chu lowered his head and smiled wryly.

Gu Pan's fingertips were already cold, and there were no wounds anywhere on his body, the most fatal one was the one on his chest.

The time of death was between Xushi and Haishi. She held the scissors so hard that she couldn't break them apart. It should be judged as suicide.

The point is, the reason for suicide.

Who was the person who broke into Gu's house that day?That man was the murderer who killed Gu Xi, and was it the main reason for Gu Pan to commit suicide?

Gu Xi's main duty is to protect Gu Pan's safety, and he is often with Gu Pan.

His family was poor and he didn't have many friends, and he recognized that person's words again... Could that person have something to do with Gu Pan?

Gu Pan, does Gu Pan know the identity of that person?

A possibility flashed through Chu Jiang's heart, and his heart froze as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head.

Could it be him?

Just as Chu Jiangkai was hesitating, two people came outside the door, one was Zhuang Zhongyan whom Chu Jiangkai recognized, and the other was Gu Yizhi.

The corners of Gu Yizhi's eyes were red, as if he had cried.He said solemnly that there was only one daughter, Gu Pan, in his family, and the blow of losing a son in middle age was too heavy for him.If it hadn't been for Zhuang Zhongyan to support him, he might have fallen down, right?

Chu Jiangkai stood up, looked at them at the same level, with three faces and six eyes, but was silent.

I don't know how long the silence lasted until Zhuang Zhongyan broke the deadlock and said, "Lord Chu, I didn't expect my son's case to be closed, and my best friend's beloved daughter... how do you explain it?"

Chu Jiang opened the way, "Miss Gu committed suicide."

"Suicide?" Zhuang Zhongyan seemed unbelievable. After repeating the word, Gu Yizhi's reaction became even more intense. He said, "How is it possible? How could Pan'er commit suicide?"

"..." Chu Jiangkai didn't know how to answer.

"She's always been fine, why did she suddenly..." Gu Yizhi leaned on Zhuang Zhong's shoulders, his face was invisible, but his voice was choked with sobs.

Chu Jiangkai really wanted to say some comforting words, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't, especially when the murderer came to his mind.

"Lord Chu, there is no reason for Miss Gu to commit suicide suddenly." Zhuang Zhongyan comforted Gu Yizhi and said to Chu Jiangkai, "...Is there still something hidden?"

Although Zhuang Zhongyan didn't point out anything, Chu Jiangkai had a feeling of being penetrated.

"You are Binzhou's parental officer, don't take human life lightly."

"..." Chu Jiangkai nodded slightly and said, "I know."

After the rest, I started to fight again...Life
