Dayong Nu sentenced to death

Gai Heng felt that it was not easy for him to be the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture.

Moan endlessly.

Su Rao didn't respond, followed him through the ceremony, and finally arrived at the morgue. The so-called morgue is a row of simple mud-tiled houses with a vent on the top.

Inside, a few thin boards were supported by low stools, and the corpse was placed on them.

White cloth mask.

There were some insect repellent and deodorizing powders sprinkled around, but even so, the smell of dead bodies could not be concealed.

Especially when it is nearly May, the temperature warms up.

Corpses decay faster.

Not only is the stench unbearable, but it is also easy to attract insects and flies, which are inexhaustible, so there are very few corpses left in the yamen. Usually, after being inspected by a servant, the family members will either take them away or send them to Yizhuang.

Or dragged directly to the mass grave to hide it.

Because the situation of this person was similar to that of the Peach Blossom Banquet case, Gai Heng deliberately detained him.

"Master Su, the one on the left is the face towel and gloves."

The guard brought something and handed it to Su Rao. Su Rao changed her face without changing her face, and pushed the door open. Gai Heng thought for a while, but still stood by the door, resisting the desire to gag, looking forward to it.

Flies and insects fluttered around the white cloth, circling and lingering.

As soon as she took off the white cloth, they swarmed up like a swarm, burrowed into the festered skin wound, and gnawed at the flesh and blood.

"The fatal wound was in the neck, the throat was cut...the blood was let out, and he lost too much blood and died..."

"There was blood in the mouth, the roots of the teeth were loose, and the tongue was clipped."

"There are restraint injuries on the hands and feet, and blood on the knees of the legs is caused by kneeling for a long time."

The results of her autopsy were not much different from what was written in Wu's autopsy case.

but……

These injuries were all caused by torture during his lifetime, and he was able to subdue such a strong man, tie him up, and move his corpse.

It shows that the murderer himself is not weak.

And the mental quality is very strong.

This point coincides with the murderer who killed Li Cheng, and they deliberately dumped his body to cause trouble, so it is no wonder that Gai Heng made such an inference.

The difference is that Li Cheng's tongue was pulled out and his eyes were gouged out, but the man's eyes were intact.

Only the tongue was cut.

Su Rao stared fixedly at the corpse for a long time, her gaze wandering over him, never letting go of every detail.

detail……

When her eyes brushed against that hand, she froze for a moment, then took out the veil soaked in medicinal fragrance to cover her mouth and nose, leaned over to examine it carefully.

The knuckles of the index finger and the tip of the thumb of this person's left hand had a thick layer of calluses, which looked very abrupt on the dark blue skin.

This location...

How could cocoons be left behind?
Su Rao lifted Cibai's hand, gestured once or twice in the air, frowned and thought for a while, puzzled.

Then put it aside for the time being.

"My lord, have you found anything?"

Gai Heng saw that she was silent and thoughtful, so he hurriedly asked.

Su Rao shook her head with her back turned to him, "Not yet."

Hearing this, Gai Heng couldn't help pursing the corners of his mouth in disappointment. He had expected this result a long time ago. After all, the deceased's body had been carefully checked several times. If there were any clues, he would not find out until today.

"My lord, come out as soon as you finish reading it, otherwise you will get the smell of corpses and it won't go away for a few days."

"understood."

Su Rao looked at the other positions, except for the head. Logically speaking, the cause of death of this person was already known, so there was no need to waste any more time. However, out of caution and habit, she still walked to the top of the corpse.

Disassemble bundle inspection.

After this investigation, her eyes narrowed slightly, she turned to Gai Heng and said, "Master Gai, please find me a razor."

"what?"

Gai Heng didn't react for a while, "What do you want a razor for?"

"Shave his head."

Su Rao replied without changing expression.

Now Gai Heng's face became even more ugly, "Here, the body, hair and skin of the parents are all dead, so do you still need to shave your hair..."

"What do you say?"

She gave Gai Heng a cool look, and Gai Heng's heart trembled. Without further words, he quickly ordered someone to bring a razor.

He watched in horror as Su Rao raised the knife in his hand and shaved that head bald very skillfully.

"Master Gai, come and take a look."

After Su Rao finished shaving, she put down the knife and called out to Gai Heng. Gai Heng didn't want to go there, but he met her eyes, gritted his teeth, and still took a few steps forward.

"Sir, what's wrong?"

"What can you see from that far away? Come here."

Dense flies and festering flesh rushed into his eyes, and the stench was suffocating. Ge Heng was afraid that he would pass out if he smelled it, so he quickly covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve, and moved to the side of the corpse.

Su Rao pointed to the bald head: "Look, what is this?"

Looking along her fingers, Gai Heng's complexion changed slightly, he even forgot to hold his breath, and asked anxiously, "This, isn't this the scar?"

"Yes."

The ring scar on the monk's head.

Looking at the number of ring scars, this person used to be an eminent monk, but he grew his hair back to become a vulgar monk. The scar was burnt with cigarette butts, and no hair can grow anymore. There is no abnormality from the outside.

But as long as you spread it carefully, you can find it soon.

The strange callus on his left hand is presumably caused by twisting beads and praying to Buddha all the year round.

"It's actually a monk who has returned to vulgarity..."

Gai Heng's face turned pale, and he said with a wry smile, "You did the autopsy too carelessly, so you didn't check it."

Su Rao ignored his complaints, glanced down at the hair balls on the ground, and made a rough estimate: "According to the length of the hair, it looks about 26 inches. If he hasn't trimmed it since he returned to vulgarity, it's probably about [-] inches. four years ago."

"Four years ago what?"

Gai Heng's mouth turned faster than his brain, and just after he finished speaking, he was startled to make a slip of the tongue, and quickly corrected it: "Your Excellency, you mean, this monk became vulgar four years ago?"

"Ah."

Su Rao explained: "There are traces of the human hair growth cycle, and a rough calculation can be made."

"It seems that the people below must speed up and find traces of him before he was alive, so that we can find out who killed him."

The more this happened, the more impatient Gai Heng became. He tried to test Su Rao: "My lord, look at the murderer's method of killing and the intentional throwing of the corpse. Could they be the same person?"

"There is no shortage of possibilities."

Su Rao didn't say anything to death, before finding out the truth, everything must be left to the imagination.

Gai Heng has been thinking about this for the past few days, and hearing her ambiguity now makes him even more anxious.

"If the two murders were committed by the same person, then he will definitely kill again. There is absolutely no reason for such a person to commit murder."

"Ah."

It is this kind of murderer that I am most afraid of encountering, because they are hard to detect and even harder to catch.

Hidden deep in the sea of ​​people, everyone can be him.

Su Rao saw that Gai Heng took off the hand covering his nose in a daze, as if he completely forgot that he was still in the morgue, and just kept staring at the corpse.

Maybe it's worrying about the bumpy future.

After all, every case that happened in the capital city is a heavy burden for him.

Su Rao covered the body again with a white cloth, and walked out of the courtyard with the distraught Gai Heng.

After much deliberation, he decided to pour another basin of cold water on him.

"Master Gai, if the two murders were really committed by the same person, it would be a big trouble indeed. This person is so meticulous and skillful in killing. Do you think he will only have these two lives in his hands?"
