Chapter 345 Murder at the Posthouse ([-]) Second Watch

"There are too few clues at the moment, and they are the most chaotic at the moment. I put the coffin in the county government office, and said that we will leave for Beijing today, and I will arrest these two. If you don't have time to prepare, you will definitely find a way to destroy the corpse in the coffin first, the easiest way is to burn it... It depends on the skills of the dark guards and Feng team!"

"Even if the person who destroyed the corpse is caught, it may be difficult to prove who the mastermind is."

"There is a saying that if you do many unrighteous deeds, you will die. As long as he dares to continue doing it, I will have a chance to know who he is! Don't worry!"

The two were talking in a low voice, and the members of Team Feng came to the courtyard with several small cloth bags.

When the couple saw the silver taels that had been carefully hidden being dug out, they went crazy and wanted to rush forward to grab it, but they were given a slap by one of the members of Team Feng and passed out.

The courtyard was suddenly quiet.

Qin Wubing didn't say anything else, he just stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, with a serious expression.

He blamed himself a little. If he had come to take a look earlier yesterday, maybe... Even if it was possible to save him, his brain would be damaged due to long-term lack of oxygen, but only after he was rescued would he know the result. What if it was all right?
A life was delayed because of his worries, Qin Wubing blamed himself more and more, and the expression on his face became more solemn.

Feng Ming frowned, and asked in a low voice: "Are you thinking too much again? Do you think that if you do something, he can do it?"

Feng Ming pointed to the coffin.

Qin Wubing remained silent, expressing his acquiescence.

"I remember that before I went to Xining, I had an argument with you. You said that no matter who you are, life should be valued and should not be taken lightly. I said it was because you were not forced to the point where it was either his death or your death. Many people In order to live, you can’t help yourself, why don’t you? The people only worry about food and clothing, and our step...is life and death!"

Qin Wubing looked at the dark coffin and said:
"A thought of mine is a life. You let me ignore it. It's not easy!"

"How capable are you that you can kill someone in a single thought? Zhao Yicheng should have died at the hands of the gangster the night before. Lan, if you ignore this case, it is reasonable, I don't understand, what are you blaming yourself for?"

"You don't even understand! In the future, if you encounter a case, just don't delay it."

"I'm too lazy to care about you!"

……

Qin Wubing waited until the county magistrate brought someone to carry the coffin, and gave some instructions to the county magistrate, then pushed the couple back to the post house.

Along the way, Qin Wubing's mind was focused on restoring the scene of the crime, and when he returned to the post, he came to the victim's room. This Qipin county magistrate, who was going to take up the post in Ningyang County, was named Mei Zhongchun, and he was over [-] years old. At present, Qin Wubing only knows this, and Mei Zhongchun's official career will not be known until he enters Beijing.

The rooms in the post house are also divided into upper rooms and ordinary rooms, and there is also a Datong shop where the attendants can live.

With Mei Zhongchun's grade, he can only live in an ordinary room.

The room was simply furnished, with a bed, a collapsed table and a round table. The police said that the deceased was lying on his back between the bed and the collapsed table.

Qin Wubing was in no hurry to come to see the scene these two days, because he knew that everything he saw was fake, but he had to come and see, so he just stood in the room, imagining what it would be like when the crime happened .

The murderer should have entered the room openly, because the window of this room faces the street, and no one would risk climbing through the window in broad daylight.

At that time, Mei Zhongchun was supposed to be taking a nap, Qin Wubing stood in front of the bed and looked towards the door.

The door was not bolted, and the murderer pushed the door open. If Mei Zhongchun was awake and didn’t shout, then he knew him. Or, at that time, Mei Zhongchun was sleeping soundly, and the murderer quietly walked to the bedside, raised his knife and stabbed...

What if Mei Zhongchun was awake?The murderer and Mei Zhongchun knew each other, and Mei Zhongchun was sure to get up. The murderer walked to the bed, pulled out a knife and stabbed Mei Zhongchun in the heart.

Thinking of this, Qin Wubing suddenly turned around and looked at the couch. What if Mei Zhongchun was lying on the couch and taking a nap in the morning?

In Qin Wubing's understanding, the bed is for the master to sleep in, and the bed is for the servants to keep watch at night. Mei Zhongchun only brought a coachman and a follower. On the day the crime happened, the two went out to buy things for the road. He never came back, otherwise the police wouldn't just take away the so-called murderer.

The police did not forget these two people. At that time, the postman was nowhere to be found. It was the postman who recalled that after lunch, Mei Zhongchun's entourage and the coachman asked him where to sell things cheaply, and watched them leave the posthouse. .

Where did you go?The police in the county government don't have time to look for them.

When Qin Wubing was shopping with the old monk yesterday morning, he found out about this news. Even this kind of news could be spread.

Of course, it is also possible that the two of them came back and saw the three floors outside and three floors outside the posthouse. After hearing the news from inside, the two of them were afraid that they could not explain clearly, so they ran away in panic.

If so, where can the two go?Lu Yin is still in the post house, most likely he will return to the capital first before making any plans.

But why such a coincidence?The murderer happened to do it when the attendant was away, and the attendant happened to be out all afternoon.

According to Qin Wubing's deduction, the deceased Mei Zhongchun should have been killed after noon, but the murderer had to wait until dinner to reveal the matter. Aren't they worried that the entourage and the coachman would come back and break it?

Qin Wubing sat on the slum. The room was cleaned very cleanly, it can be said to be spotless, and the bedding was replaced with new ones. The old bedding was thrown away by the courier the day before yesterday. Qin Wubing ordered Sherlock Holmes to I looked for it, but I found it. It was picked up by a poor family and taken to the house. After being dismantled and washed, it was dried in the yard. The blood-stained cotton inside was still soaking in water...

In fact, Qin Wubing couldn't figure out one thing all the time, why he only killed the postman and not the postman?

Killed because Yicheng saw or knew something.

If you don't kill, it must be because you don't know anything.

What things do the postmen know but the postmen don't?It stands to reason that post soldiers often wander around in the post house, so it is easier to see what is right.

Feng Ming stood at the door without making a sound.

Usually there are old monks, Lin Huai and Guo Yi around, regardless of whether the questions asked by the three are useful or not, they can always help Qin Wubing's deduction. Ill expand my mind.
