Fast Travel: The Daily Life of the Buddhist Villain's Self-Saving

Chapter 73 The No. 5 Scholar Who Failed in Rebellion [-]

Ye Yan brought Su Luochen to Hongyue Pavilion, the largest restaurant in the capital, and booked a private room. After the two sat down, the shopkeeper came in with the menu in person. He saw that Ye Yan didn't come to eat alone today, but brought I came with a friend and was surprised for a moment, but as the shopkeeper of the largest restaurant in the capital, he has a very high professionalism, he immediately came back to his senses and respectfully said to Ye Yan: "Nine thousand years old, what do you order today?" ?”

Ye Yan handed the menu to Su Luochen and said, "You can order."

Su Luochen said embarrassingly: "How embarrassing is this? Today, nine thousand years old are spending money, how can the lower officials be good at it?"

Ye Yan said impatiently: "What are you good at? If you ask you to order a dish, why are you talking so much nonsense? If you don't order it, we'll eat wontons. You treat me!"

Su Luochen quickly took the menu and ordered it. It took only a while after ordering the dishes to be served one after another. Ye Yan looked at the meat dishes on the table and asked doubtfully, "Why are you so skinny because you love meat so much?" Like a bamboo pole with skin and bones?"

Su Luochen thought to himself: What is a skinny bamboo pole? My son's figure is obviously tall and thin. Do you know how to appreciate it, you dead eunuch? !

However, he did not dare to scold him due to Ye Yan's lustful power, he could only say: "Xiaguan has been in poor health since he was a child, no matter how much he eats, he doesn't grow much flesh."

Ye Yan nodded and said, "Oh, then aren't you wasting food for nothing?"

"..." Hearing this, Su Luochen really wanted to kick the dead eunuch in the face, but he tried his best to hold back in order to save his own life.

Although they came here for dinner, the investigation is still the key point, so Ye Yan looked at Su Luochen and said to him, "Yunqing, please tell me your views on these five cases."

Su Luochen thought for a while and said, "First of all, the victims of this series of serial murders are all 16-year-old girls. Although the victim's body is covered with bruises, they have not been violated. Therefore, it is impossible to determine whether the murderer is a man or a woman. Secondly, the five The cases all happened within half a year, so there are two possibilities: the first possibility is that the murderer is a novice, if so, we should start with the first case he (she) committed, because the murderer committed the crime for the first time The general experience is not very sufficient, and evidence is often left behind; the second possibility is that this is not the first round of crimes committed by the murderer. The murderer may have committed crimes before, but he is not in the capital. Taking the records of similar unsolved cases across the country half a year ago for analysis, Xiaguan is more inclined to the second possibility, because the first of the five cases in the capital is the same as the next four cases, the scene of the body dumping is very clean, and no clues are left , so I believe that this is not the first time the murderer has committed a crime."

Ye Yan nodded and said: "I agree with you. I will order Qilin to collect records of the same type of unsolved cases across the country. However, this matter involves too much scope, and it may take longer."

Su Luochen added another one: "Also, when you send people to investigate, let them investigate in private, so as not to overwhelm the enemy. And after the investigation, we should focus on the case where the murderer committed the crime for the first time, except for the reasons I just mentioned In addition, serial murderers often have some special reasons for their first murder, and it is easiest to get clues from here."

After listening, Ye Yan nodded in agreement.

After lunch, the two separated. Ye Yan went to arrange tasks for Qilin, while Su Luochen went to the homes of the other four victims to inquire about the situation, but still did not get any useful clues.

The next day, shortly after Su Luochen Xiachao returned to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, someone came to him, and the person who came was Ye Yan's subordinate, Ye Yi.

As soon as Ye Yi entered the door, he cupped his hands and said to Su Luochen: "Master Qiao, another dead person was found this morning, and now the body has been sent to Yi Zhuang. Lord Qiantui is waiting for you in Yi Zhuang."

Su Luochen quickly said, "Okay, I'll go right away." After speaking, he went to Yizhuang with Ye Yi.

When they arrived at Yizhuang, Ye Yi led Su Luochen to find Ye Yan. When Su Luochen found Ye Yan, he was examining the body.Su Luochen walked to the corpse and asked, "How? What did Nine Thousand Years find?"

Ye Yan looked up at Su Luochen and said, "The name of the deceased is Du Juan. Her family has just come to confirm the body. The deceased is 16 years old this year. The time of death was between Haishi yesterday and Choushi today. Her body was killed at Chenshi today." A beggar was found in an alley where few people usually go. Her body had eleven wounds, old and new, none of which were fatal. The fatal wound was on her chest, and she died of being stabbed in the heart with a sharp knife."

"Du Juan? Isn't it Miss Sun's maid Xiaolan?" Su Luochen asked in surprise.

Ye Yan replied: "The deceased is indeed not Xiaolan."

Su Luochen continued to ask: "When did she disappear?"

Ye Yan replied: "Nine days ago."

"Nine days ago..." Su Luochen fell into deep thought after hearing Ye Yan's answer.

So far, excluding Xiao Lan, who has not yet been found, there are currently six victims.

The No.1 victim, Li Ying, disappeared half a year ago, and was found dead half a month later; the No.2 victim, Song Lianer, disappeared seven days before Li Ying’s death, and Song Lianer’s body was found three days after Li Ying’s body was found. The dead body, that is to say, there was only ten days between when she disappeared and when the body was found; the No.3 victim Lu Xiaoyan disappeared three months ago, and the body was found seven days after the disappearance; the time when the No.4 victim Zhang Cuihua disappeared Seven days earlier than Lu Xiaoyan, but her body was found No. 18 days after her disappearance, so although Zhang Cuihua disappeared earlier than Lu Xiaoyan, she died later than her; No.5 victim Sun Jingyi disappeared 6 days ago, The body was found half a month later; No.[-] victim Du Juan, who disappeared nine days ago, was found today.

Ordinary serial killers always follow a certain pattern when committing crimes, but the time interval between the disappearance of these six victims and the discovery of their bodies is different, which does not conform to the serial killer's killing routine, which makes Su Luochen think deeply. Puzzled.

After examining the corpse, Ye Yan suggested to go to a restaurant not far from Yizhuang to have dinner, but now another girl died, but they still didn't get any useful clues, and Xiaolan's life would be in danger at any time. The frustration left Su Luochen with no appetite at all, he rejected Ye Yan's proposal and left alone.

After returning home, his mother and sister-in-law had already had dinner, and they were sitting in the yard chatting at this time. Su Luochen was about to go back to the house after greeting his mother and sister-in-law, when suddenly he heard a familiar fragrance wafting from his sister-in-law. , So he asked: "Sister-in-law, have you changed your face powder today?"

The sister-in-law nodded and replied: "Yes, you have a sharp nose. Lengxiangge has released a new fragrance powder in the past two days. It smells fresh and elegant, and it is very unique. It is the only one here, so it is very popular."

"Lengxiang Pavilion?" Su Luochen usually only pays attention to places that sell food, and never pays attention to places that sell rouge and gouache.

The sister-in-law smiled and said: "Of course you, a big man who is not married, don't know. This Lengxiang Pavilion was opened a year ago, and the owner is a foreigner. The rouge powder in Lengxiang Pavilion has many colors, good texture and unique fragrance. So it became the most popular incense powder shop in the capital in less than a year. But why do you suddenly care about this? Do you have a sweetheart? Want to give her incense powder as a gift?"

Su Luochen quickly waved his hand and said, "Nothing! I'll just ask casually."

Seeing this, his mother said, "Yunqing, you are seventeen this year, and it's time to discuss marriage."

As soon as Su Luochen heard that he wanted to propose a marriage for him, he resolutely objected: "Mother, a man should make contributions first. Didn't the eldest brother marry his sister-in-law after he became a colonel?" Let him marry a woman?Absolutely impossible, he is still waiting to find the reincarnation of Yan Yunze and him to live together.

When his mother heard him say this, she glared at him and said, "Can you compare with your elder brother? Your elder brother has been fighting outside all year round. If your sister-in-law didn't dislike him, he would still be a bachelor. You are different." , you are the number one scholar in the new department, and now you are working in the Ministry of Punishment, and you are also very handsome, recently, many matchmakers have come to the house to propose marriage."

Seeing that it was useless to refuse, Su Luochen had no choice but to avoid the matter first, so he said, "Mother, I've been busy with a big case recently, so I don't have time to take care of it. Let's bring it up to me after I finish investigating the case." about it, okay?"

Seeing that her son still had important matters to attend to, his mother had no choice but to say, "Okay, let's do as you wish."

Su Luochen smiled at his mother and said, "Thank you, mother, for your understanding. Then you two will chat slowly first. I have something to go out." After finishing speaking, he turned and ran outside.
