Dayong Nu sentenced to death

Chapter 491 A ruin, scorched corpse melted into wine
The bamboo house was burnt into blackened ruins and nearly [-]% collapsed. The servants of Jingzhao Mansion cleaned up the main house first, and found a charred corpse, which was clearly placed on the cleared space.

The stench of burning was almost nauseating.

Gu Cheng and the others and Xiao San had experienced big scenes, so they just wrinkled their noses uncomfortably, and then covered their faces with their sleeves to avoid inhaling more odors.

The moment Xun Zeli and his group saw the scorched corpse, their stomachs twitched, they turned around and ran to the side, holding on to the tree trunk and retching for a long time.

"Are all the people in the Imperial City Division so useless?"

Xiao San glanced at their backs faintly, and his tone was mocking and sarcastic. Gu Cheng also saw the situation over there, and said in a low voice: "The Imperial City Secretary is too leisurely, don't talk about investigating cases, removing corpses, and arresting thieves. I haven't seen any of them."

"Then what do you do all day?"

Now it was Shen Yuan's turn to be dumbfounded, watching Su Rao walking towards the pile of ruins, while paying attention, he said distractedly.

"Walking around the streets on horseback, hunting on horseback..."

Of course, there are some Gu Cheng who, out of consideration for face, did not say it directly, that is, cockfighting, dog walking, and hawk hunting...

After the left-behind Jingzhao government servants took out the body, they walked around twice pretendingly, and said goodbye to Su Rao.

"The fire started from the side of the house, more precisely, from the corpse..."

Shen Yuan and the others responded immediately.

"After the wine is burned, there will still be a little smell of distiller's grains around, but this smell is mixed with the stench of burnt corpses, and it is easy to be ignored."

Su Rao stood up and patted the dust on the corner of her skirt, "To be precise, it's the wine jar."

The deceased was in the shape of a fist, the surface was completely carbonized, and there were no clothing residues of clue value left.

This walk took away the other people stationed here in the Jingzhao Mansion, and left all the scene to them.

Xiao Fan swore that he really didn't mean to be arrogant, but that there are too many things that can be used in ceramic jars, and they are very common.

"Okay, I'll leave this to Su Jianling."

"How did the girl see it?"

In the busy murder scene, they are the only group of people who are leisurely and contented. If you can ignore their frowning and ugly faces, people will really think they are here to play.

The oil and water on his body flowed out with full combustion and soaked into the ground.

"Okay, then the follow-up autopsy and evidence collection will be taken over by the official alone, and the Jingzhao Mansion will not intervene."

"After the body caught fire, the deceased has been here, and there is no sign of moving."

The three of Xiao San looked at each other and were speechless for a while.

Gu Cheng glanced at the pile of scorched ruins where he couldn't tell where. He pondered for a long time, but couldn't understand the reason behind it.

Isn't that a little too insulting for it!

Xiao San said in a daze.

Su Rao led the two of them along the ruins cleared by the yamen servants, to the place where the body was found. The scorched ground had outlines, the color was darker than other places, and the burn marks were heavier.

Su Rao squatted down, followed the staggered gaps of burning materials, and pointed to a crooked black wooden bench that had already collapsed on one side: "After the fire broke out in the house, it was burned, and because of the loss of balance and support, it would face the fire. It collapsed in one direction, presenting a slope with a lower bottom and a higher top, and the ash layer after incineration is different according to various factors such as the burning sequence, the ignition point and the non-ignition point, and the traces of the ash layer are also different.”

Gu Cheng and Xiao San looked at each other, and they chased after her side by side. When they saw the dagger in her hand for digging things, they twitched the corners of their mouths in unison.

Gu Cheng and Xiao San walked up to Su Rao, seeing that she was staring at the pile of ruins as if she seemed to be, and did not dare to disturb her.

Gu Cheng and Xiao San suddenly realized.

Her eyes can always find clues in various subtle places, Gu Cheng said: "So, he deliberately set fire to destroy the corpse."

After a while, Su Rao said: "The burning is so clean, there are at least three or five fire points, the fire started from the side of the main house, spread to the right window, followed by the east room, and finally the west kitchen..."

Apparently they had received news from the city.

Su Rao's words startled both of them at the same time, and the fire started from the dead body, so to speak, "When the murderer set the fire, the person was already dead?"

The corpses were most severely damaged.

"Take it!"

He left after speaking.

However, Su Rao didn't have the heart to think about it, she dug out a piece of broken porcelain from the ashes, which was already scorched black.

After hearing this, Xun Zeli rarely refuted. He snorted coldly and stood a little further away, holding his nose, as if he didn't intend to come over.

"Look at that stool..."

Yinxuewei who was with him naturally followed suit.

Xun Zeli and him looked at each other for a moment, then turned and walked out: "It's just right, I'm too fuzzy to stay here."

Gu Cheng's eyes are far away, full of melancholy: "I'm just telling the truth. Today's Imperial City Secretary doesn't have the slightest glory in the past...Why deceive yourself and others."

After all, this is a magic weapon that is hard to find in the world.

"There is also the possibility of incapacity."

"I see."

"You didn't pay attention."

Everyone looked at Xun Zeli.

They go to stop the people who come over.

Xun Zeli and the others heard these words when they came back from vomiting, their expressions were not good: "Don't forget, you are also a member of the Imperial City Division."

Actually use it to dig ash.

The wine fueled the combustion, which is why the body was burned like this.

Su Rao spoke clearly at once, and the yamen servant smiled and cupped his hands and said, "That's natural, this case will be a laborious supervision order, and I will resign from my humble position."

What did you find?

She casually threw it to Xiao San, Xiao San took it in her hand, and watched her continue to search, and then intermittently found seven or eight pieces of the same thing nearby.

There is no reason to bury one's own family with outsiders like this.

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Cheng and Xiao San lowered their bodies at the same time, and took two deep breaths. After each inhalation, the burnt smell rushed straight from the nose to the top of their heads, and they almost vomited.

After Su Rao finished speaking, she glanced at something inadvertently, she turned around suddenly, went to the ruins and squatted down, took out the snake blade and fiddled with it casually.

regain control of the situation.

"Why wine and not something else?"

He looked at Xun Zeli and his party standing beside him, with menace in his eyes, "This is an order, wait for me to invite you in person?"

Afraid that the burning would not be clean enough, I lit several places on purpose.

Gu Cheng immediately ordered: "Yinxuewei, guard the surroundings, and no one else can come near."

"This is... a porcelain altar?"

Su Rao looked at the expressions of the two as if they had eaten flies, and shook her head helplessly, why bother!
"Girl, what should we do now? Do we need to clean up the things in the ruins to see if there are any usable clues?"

Su Rao didn't answer his question directly, but looked around and said lightly: "Except for the smashed wine jar, these tables and chairs are only burned, which proves that the deceased did not struggle violently before death."

"In a big fire, there are limited clues left."

"Two or three people are enough."
