I'm a detective for Dongchang

Chapter 39

Happy to take a bite of the steamed stuffed bun, wow!It's still from Weixianglou...

Lu Xizhi squinted her eyes happily, immersed in the fragrant gravy for a long time aftertaste.

"Do you like raw fried food?"

"Well, this is a traditional snack in my hometown..." Lu Xizhi pursed her lips, she missed her mother.

Wang Yuanzhi glanced at her, took a bite of the steamed stuffed bun, looked around, and said, "My master's favorite food is hamburger, two slices of bread, with a thick piece of beef or chicken sandwiched in between, and put A few lettuce leaves. Don't you like it?"

When it came to food, she became interested and said to him: "Well, the deep-fried smell is too strong, I call it junk food, but if you don't like it, you don't like it. Sometimes you are too busy with work, and eating hamburgers is the easiest Convenience and save time."

"Master also said the same thing. Forensic doctors are very busy. At first, it was because of saving time. Later, it became a habit. If you don't eat for a day, you will panic. She said that she died of myocardial infarction at the age of 42. It is a kind of cardiovascular disease in the human body." As he said, Wang Yuanzhi smiled and pointed to his heart, "So after she came here, she never ate deep-fried or fried things."

"Does she often bring up the past to you?"

Wang Yuanzhi nodded, then shook his head again.

"In the first two or three years, I often talked about it, but I was just a child at that time, and I couldn't understand her emotions, so I just remembered the food... Hehe." Wang Yuanzhi felt a little regretful.

"Where did she... did she wake up?"

"Master was in Yizhuang. When I woke up from a maid's coffin, my father and I thought we had seen a ghost." Wang Yuanzhi laughed, "I immediately took a few talisman papers and pasted them on her head on the coffin. As a result, Master I sat up immediately, tore off the talisman paper, and jumped out of the coffin with a strong push. My father and I kowtowed to her, telling her not to eat us. Haha."

That picture appeared in Lu Xizhi's mind, and he burst out laughing.

"Later, Master found traces of homicide from a corpse sent to Yizhuang, and thus assisted Dali Temple in cracking down on a case of kidnapping, raping, and murdering a woman. The Song Siqing of Dali Temple at that time asked her to work as a priest in Dali Temple, but She gave up and chose to stay in the small yamen instead."

"why?"

"She didn't say it."

"Your master has never been married. Could it be that she has never been in love here?"

"You also know that being a prostitute is a lowly profession. Whose boys and girls are willing to marry us?" Wang Yuanzhi first sighed, and hesitated to speak. After thinking about it, he said: "Master has encountered pursuit. There is also a man who has intended to have a relationship, but that man has a well-matched wife, and the master is not willing to be a concubine, let alone destroy their marriage."

Lu Xizhi remained silent, she would have done the same thing, no matter what, she couldn't accept sharing her family with others.

She took a bite of the bun and asked casually, "Are you familiar with Yuan Yanxi?"

"Because Master saved Zhenyuanhou." Wang Yuanzhi saw that she didn't understand, "Zhenyuanhou is Yuan Changgong's father."

No wonder Dad called him Xiao Hou Ye.

That's even more strange, Lu Xizhi was puzzled: "He came from a noble family, how did he become a eunuch?"

Wang Yuan was taken aback, not understanding what she meant, he could only say: "What? Mr. Yuan Chang is not..."

Before he could finish speaking, a voice broke the conversation between the two.

"The two of you seem to be too busy." There was no emotion in the indifferent tone.

As if being caught for doing something bad, Lu Xizhi quickly stood up, and the bun in his hand almost fell.

Yuan Yanxi's eyes swept over the two of them, and with a cold snort, he walked straight to the lobby.

Lu Xizhi cursed secretly: This person is really unpredictable and has an irritable physique.

"Wang Yuzuo, Miss Lu, the policemen have already visited and are in the lobby now, you two come with me." Donghai explained the reason.

Wang Yuanzhi patted his clothes, stood up, and said politely, "It's not my job to solve cases. I'll stay here to examine the corpses. If I find anything, I'll notify you immediately."

Dong Hai said he knew, and then looked at Lu Xizhi.

She nodded quickly, swallowed the last bite of the bun, clapped her hands, and signaled Donghai to lead the way.

When he arrived at the lobby, Lu Xizhi found that it was not only big, but also...

Empty and deserted.

There is a large space of [-] square meters, and there is only one solid-color screen in the whole interior, and a long table of nearly two meters. At the moment, the stern Yuan Changgong is sitting on the back of the table, and then there are eight chairs at the bottom. Other than that, nothing.

Is Dongchang so poor?

"Everyone is here, let's start." Donghai ordered succinctly.

"Mr. Yuan, let me first report the basic situation of the place where the incident happened," Qi Yong said.

Yuan Yanxi nodded.

"The owner of the burned house is Zhang Qingyou, 45 years old, a carpenter; his wife is Li Fengzhen, 42 years old; the couple only have two daughters, the eldest daughter is Zhang Caixia, 23 years old, married three years ago; the younger My daughter is Zhang Caiyu, 20 years old. We asked the neighbors around. In addition to Zhang Qingyou and Li Fengzhen, the youngest daughter Zhang Caiyu has been living here with her parents. She just moved back and brought her man and two children with her. Her man's name is Fang Daqiang, and he does some physical work. One of the two children is over two years old, and the other is only one year old."

"There are so many people living in such a small place in their house, even the original utility room has been vacated." Zhang Dong interjected.

Qi Yong replied casually: "I told their neighbors that they usually deal with that the younger daughter originally lived in the east wing, but the eldest daughter and son-in-law gave it to them after they moved back, and they lived in the utility room."

"What does their family rely on for a living?" Lu Xizhi asked.

Qi Yong said: "Zhang Qingyou does some carpentry work every month, and Li Fengzhen occasionally does some tailoring work to supplement the family. The younger daughter has a disability in her calf and no one wants to use it, so she helps her mother at home. The eldest daughter Zhang Caixia used to work as a girl in a family, but she was dismissed for some reason. Then she got married and gave birth to a child. After returning to her natal family, she never heard of going out to work. The basic situation of Zhang’s family is so much for the time being.”

Lu Xizhi concluded that the family had a large population and lived in poverty.

Zhang Dong replied: "By the way, I was in charge of the final cleaning work on the site. Under a wall of the main house, I found a pile of broken silver, which added up to about ten taels."

"Could the murderer go after the ten taels of silver?" A voice guessed.

The voice sounded familiar. Lu Xizhi looked over and realized that it was... Wen Yiming who liked Chen Xiuzhu. It seemed that he had come out of the haze.

Lu Xizhi said: "I think the possibility of making money can basically be ruled out. Then a large family is crowded in such a small house, and it is not bad for their family not to make money from others. It is basically a low-income family. Live on personal wages."

"I agree with Miss Lu, this is not a murder case because of money." Qi Yong seconded.

Yuan Yanxi nodded, and asked, "What did they find out about their family's daily relationship? Is there anyone suspicious?"

"It's just a preliminary inquiry this morning. There is no suspicious person yet. According to the current neighbors, their family is quite honest. They don't interact with people around them very much, and they never quarrel with others. I don’t understand how someone would murder them, and I haven’t heard that they have any grudges against others.”

"Expand the scope of the investigation a little bit more. Especially the elder son-in-law, whose in-law's house lives well, how did it become a backdoor?" Yuan Yanxi ordered.

Lu Xizhi also agreed with this point. The eldest daughter and eldest son-in-law were wiped out within half a year after returning home. There is something wrong with this.

Qi Yong, Zhang Dong, and Wen Yiming all said yes.

"I still have a little doubt. The burning scene was so horrific. Wang Yuzuo said that it was caused by the murderer using a lot of lamp oil and placing flammable dry firewood and hay around the dead?" Lu Xizhi said.

Qi Yong replied: "Yes, there are traces of burning lamp oil around the several dead."

"Is lamp oil not expensive?"
