Travel to ancient times to be a fast catcher

Chapter 105 The Mistake Case (1)

When Su Wen sorted out the books for Chu Xiaoyun in the small room, he took out the "Frontier Fortress Record" that was pressed underneath, and held it in his hand with emotion: "Mr. Duan gave us these books before he left. I also gave you a book on martial arts and mental methods. But this "Front Fortress Record" doesn't touch both sides, so what is he doing with this book?"

Chu Xiaoyun looked up at the book in Su Wen's hand, and after a moment of fugue, Ying said: "Increasing knowledge is also good, but it may also be that there are too many things that you don't want to take away."

Su Wen smiled and said, "You really think about it." As

he spoke, he put the book back on the shelf, and said sadly: "I can't think of a paragraph. The husband and his family left in such a hurry that they didn't even have time to say goodbye."

Chu Xiaoyun said: "Life is always about meeting and parting, and there will always be reunion."

Su Wen nodded melancholy.

Chu Xiaoyun asked: "Are you still used to working in the yamen?"

The murderer who assassinated him has not yet been brought to justice. After the Zhihe Bookstore closed, Chu Xiaoyun couldn't rest assured that Su Wen could be left alone at home. It was quite troublesome for Su Wen to be placed in an environment that affected his official duties. Before finding a place to resettle, he could only take Su Wen with him. However, he didn't worry about this matter for a few days, and he learned that after the purge of the county magistrate's faction in the yamen, many vacant positions now urgently need to be filled. Mr. Wei also issued a notice that if there is a shortage of personnel in each gatehouse, it can be reported in time. Master Yu is also stepping up to sort out the list of vacancies in the yamen, and will recruit from the public soon. Some civil servants can also participate in the test.

Chu Xiaoyun was very pleasantly surprised when he got the news. According to the recruiting plan given by Master Yu, Su Wen made targeted preparations for the copywriting positions he could participate in, and was finally shortlisted in the recruiting. It was logical to enter the yamen to work, and also entered the arresting room where Chu Xiaoyun was.

From then on, Su Wen had a legitimate name to stay by Chu Xiaoyun's side, which was not only convenient for Chu Xiaoyun to take care of his safety, but also for Chu Xiaoyun himself. Su Wen became Chu Xiaoyun's capable helper in official affairs, able to organize and file various documents and files according to Chu Xiaoyun's preferences, and sometimes even give some ideas of his own.

Chu Xiaoyun felt that this was really the best thing. Su Wen was his right and left hand handling the documents and files of the arrest house, so he didn't worry about the secrets being leaked.

After hearing Chu Xiaoyun's question, Su Wen smiled and said: "Of course I'm used to it. I'm doing these things more and more smoothly, and it's great to be able to stay with my husband every day.

Chu Xiaoyun heard Su Wen say so much . Said, and felt relieved: "That's good. Uncle Yu came across the county to support him, and it was time to revisit his old place. The yamen let him play here for a few days, and he will return to Yunling tomorrow. After the yamen is released tonight, we will give him a farewell party. "

That night, at the famous Yueke Restaurant in Hejing County, Chu Xiaoyun and many colleagues in the yamen had a farewell party for Yu's father. During the banquet, the guests came and went. It was very lively. Halfway through the banquet, suddenly someone from the arresting room rushed to report: " After arresting the head, the villagers of Baishui Village came to report, and a dead bone was found on the back hill. "

The whole banquet suddenly fell silent. It is indeed a bit unlucky for such a thing to happen at a farewell banquet, but Chu Xiaoyun had to ask: "What's going on? tell me the story. "

Today, a few villagers from Baishui Village went to do farm work at the foot of the mountain behind their village, and suddenly an unknown dead bone rushed down from the mountain. "The arrester said quickly, "Many people saw it at the scene. "

"How did that bone rush down the mountain? " "Chu Xiaoyun asked. "How can you tell it's nameless dead bones?" Isn't it the clansman buried earlier by the people in their village? "

"The autumn rains have been continuous for the past few days. Mountains have collapsed in many places in our county and in Jingxian County. The dead bone was probably washed down the mountain because the rain softened the mountain. They have never buried anyone there in their memory. Moreover, the dead bone was black all over, and it is suspected that he died of poisoning in front of him, but no one in their village has committed suicide by taking poison in recent decades." The police who came to report one by one Come on.

As soon as the policeman said it, Chu Xiaoyun understood that it was a landslide caused by long-term rain, and some buried things were exposed. Since the whole body of the withered bone was black, there were signs of poisoning, and no one in the village committed suicide by taking poison, it seems to be a homicide.

Chu Xiaoyun got up and bowed to Yu He and Yu's father: "Uncle Yu, there is a case to report in the yamen, it seems that Xiaoyun will owe you this banquet." Yu's father seemed to be fascinated by the fast

report , a little distracted. Hearing Chu Xiaoyun talking to him, it took him a long time to come back to his senses: "Ah, oh, it's okay, the yamen's business is important, you go and get busy."

Chu Xiaoyun nodded, and motioned for the few arresters who were going with him to get up quickly. Yu He said: "Yu He, you and the other concierge colleagues will spend more time with Uncle, go to Yunling another day, and I will apologize to Uncle." "Ah? Oh!"

Yu He seemed to be a little distracted, "Then, that's fine... ..."

Yu He's words were interrupted by Yu's father: "What are you going to do? Yu He, you are also a fast catcher. The yamen has official duties, so you should put official duties first. Go do your work and leave me alone." Father Yu said

. Then he said to the other concierges at the same table: "Go back and get busy. I'll stop here today. I, the old man, know what you guys think." The

case is urgent, and this banquet cannot go on. However, Father Yu wanted to kick Yu He and beat him, but Chu Xiaoyun still disagreed: "Uncle, let's go, let Yu He accompany you." After speaking, he said

to Yu He: "It's a long way, and it's rare for Uncle to come here. Tomorrow I have to go back again, you stay with uncle."

Yu He hesitated for a moment: "That's fine, I'll send the old man back to the post house first." The

arresters all left, and the other gatekeepers also lost their reason to sit down, and the farewell banquet ended.

Chu Xiaoyun hurried back to the yamen with a group of policemen and Su Wen. On the way, he arranged for Su Wen to stay in the hut. When he returned to the yamen, he was immediately taken to meet the villagers who came to report to the officials.

The few villagers seemed to be quite frightened, and they were stuttering when they spoke. But the advantage is that there are many people, you say what you say, let alone what happened. The content of what he said was similar to what the policeman went to report before. It seemed that the policeman who went to report was careful and did his homework. Chu Xiaoyun was very satisfied with this. Since he became the chief arrester, the arresters have been working more efficiently under his leadership.

"Let's go, go and have a look." Chu Xiaoyun waved his hand, "Take your assistant."

A group of people headed towards Baishui Village in a mighty manner.

Arriving at the scene at the foot of the mountain behind Baishui Village, Chu Xiaoyun observed the terrain. The corpse was indeed washed down by a landslide. The appearance of the corpse was indeed as reported by the villagers, the whole body was black and there were signs of poisoning. There were no traces of the prostitution organization on the bones, and it seemed that this person had been dead for a long time. As for how long he has been dead, it has to be verified by Wu.

"Senior, I'm counting on you now." Chu Xiaoyun bowed to the old assistant. Unexpectedly, just after he was released from Danzhou, this old master would run into two important cases one after another.

Having said that, Chu Xiaoyun glanced at the old Wuzuo, still a little worried, in this day and age, can the autopsy of the deceased be able to accurately determine the age of death of the deceased? The number of years of death can play a vital role in the case, and it is a very important condition to determine the identity of the deceased without any clues.

Chu Xiaoyun thought of the old Wu Zuo's accurate verification of the concept of giants in Zhou Ying's case three years ago, and felt that it was feasible. Two kinds of thoughts are mixed, and there are many doubts in my heart.

After hearing Chu Xiaoyun's words, the old Wuzuo was ordered to go forward to check the bones. He took off the box he was carrying with him, took out silver needles from it and stuck them into different places in the bones, and then took out a small hammer and beat them carefully. About half an hour later, the old man got up and reported: "Chu Butou, this corpse should have been disappointed about twenty years ago." "

What?" Chu Xiaoyun was quite surprised, "Twenty years? This number Is it accurate?"

The old Wu Zuo calmly replied: "Checking the bone age is a common thing in the business, and I haven't missed it yet. It's an approximate test at present, and I have to wait overnight for a more accurate time." The old Wu

Zuo As he spoke, he shook a clay pot in his hand.

"What is this?" Chu Xiaoyun asked suspiciously.

"Soak a small piece of the bone from the bridge into the potion." The old man said, "Tomorrow, we can see the state of the bone and know the exact time." "Well." Chu Xiaoyun felt that he

was A little underestimated the ancients, he stared at the bones, secretly thinking badly. What happened 20 years ago, time has changed, it is very difficult to check in the modern society of the previous life; with the level of technology in ancient times, it is even more difficult to check.

But since the villagers have reported to the officials, they can't ignore it. Chu Xiaoyun thought for a while: "Get this bone to the village first, and find a place to store it first. The rest will be discussed later." The

police stepped on the yellow mud and cleaned the bones out of the mud one by one. , Under the guidance of the villagers, they moved to an unused dilapidated house in the village.

Looking at the cobweb-covered, dilapidated house, Chu Xiaoyun frowned and said, "There is no other decent place? It rains in this house, so it must rain inside." The village chief laughed and said, "

Our village Most of the people in this village are from the old world, and the villagers are not very rich, so there are no spare houses to spare. How about I ask some strong young people to cover the roof of this house."

"Then act quickly, it looks like it's going to rain again today." Speaking of this, there is no other way. Chu Xiaoyun could only ask the village chief to repair the roof.

The village head got the instructions and hurriedly sent people to prepare.

After the villagers left, the policemen began to clean up the things in the house, so that the old man could conduct further autopsy.

"Then how did this room become vacant?" Chu Xiaoyun asked the village chief while checking in the room.

The village chief hurriedly stepped forward to laugh and said, "This house was vacant almost twenty years ago when a young man from other places died of poisoning due to ingestion. Because he died in the house at a young age, there was no one in the house afterwards. Dare to live..."

"Twenty years ago?" Chu Xiaoyun immediately asked after hearing this time, "He died of poisoning by accident?

" , It was about that time. He died of poisoning by mistake."

"Then why do you say that there is no one in your village who died of poisoning?" Chu Xiaoyun was a little speechless. He pointed to the pile of bones piled up in the room, "This bone is not Could it be the owner of this house twenty years ago?"

"Ah? That's not true, absolutely not." The village head quickly waved his hand.

"Why?" Chu Xiaoyun asked, "Isn't this the one who died of poisoning?" "

The place where the young man was buried was on the half slope of the road we came back just now. The grave is still in good condition. It wasn't this corpse that washed down. The place. And the young man died of poisoning from eating two kinds of incompatible foods by mistake, and his bones will not turn black." The village chief explained.

Seeing Chu Xiaoyun looking at him with disbelief, he hurriedly said, "Really, that's what the autopsy said at the time. If you die from food poisoning, your bones won't turn black." I didn't understand much about it, so I looked at the busy old foreman and said, "Sir, is that so?"

"Catch the head." A panting voice approached from far away, interrupting the old foreman's answer, "How is the situation here? Did you find anything?"

Chu Xiaoyun raised his head when he heard the call, and saw the person coming , with a bit of blame in surprise: "Didn't you be asked to accompany uncle, why are you here?"

It turned out that the person who came was Yu He.
