The wife of the power minister's family

Xu Jing said: "During the epidemic twenty-four years ago, many doctors who practiced medicine in Anping County with Lin Chengzhao actually realized that something was wrong very early on, but they did not want to cause trouble, so they did not investigate the matter in depth.

But Mr. Zhou of Tianyi Pavilion has some personal enmity with the Lin family. He has been secretly pursuing this matter over the years and told me his suspicions. I went to Anping County a few days ago just to find the man who was with Lin Chengzhao. The two stewards understood the situation. Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived in Anping County, one of the stewards was killed and dismembered. The person who ordered the murder of that steward was Lin Chengzhao. "

Xu Jing didn't need to explain what happened next. Yao Shaoyin also understood. He frowned slightly and said: "If Madam Xu had put another steward who could be a witness under surveillance a few days ago, Lin Chengzhao should have known about it at that time. The incident fourteen years ago could no longer be concealed, but why did he have to flee Xijing until today?"

Smart people will flee immediately when they realize something is wrong.

And Lin Chengzhao is definitely a smart man for being able to conceal such a heinous crime for so many years.

Xu Jing sneered and said, "Of course, he thought he still had someone to rely on."

Yao Shaoyin was stunned and immediately remembered that the people behind Guangmingtang were from the Jiang family!

This matter is no longer a secret in the court.

If the Jiang family wants to use Guangmingtang to win the qualification to supply medicine to the army, they will definitely not tolerate anything happening to him.

Lin Chengzhao thought that the Jiang family would help him, so he didn't escape in the first place!

And Lin Chengzhao suddenly wanted to flee Xijing in a hurry today. Could it be because the Jiang family was unwilling to help him, and the Jiang family had abandoned the Lin family? !

After figuring out all the details at once, Yao Shaoyin couldn't help blurting out, "Then Lin Chengzhao really doesn't need to let Shi Wenfeng poison him!"

It is difficult for my own family to protect itself, let alone continue to compete with Xinglin Hall supported by Mrs. Xu.

Why should he go to extra trouble and cause trouble to Xinglin Hall?

Xu Jing said coldly: "That's right, and given his current situation, one more or one less crime won't change anything. There's no need for him to lie to us.

He was not the one who instigated Shi Wenfeng to poison him. "

For a moment, a question arose in everyone's mind - if it wasn't Lin Chengzhao who instigated it, then who was it?

Yao Shaoyin suddenly thought of something, his face froze slightly, he carefully approached Xu Jing's ear and whispered: "Mrs. Xu is not suspicious of the Jiang family..."

He just suddenly remembered that the Jiang family and Madam Xu are now in a competitive relationship!

Moreover, to be honest, in the eyes of outsiders like them, Madam Xu and the others suddenly interfered in something that the Jiang family had been planning for so long, which was somewhat unkind. The Jiang family was so angry that it was possible to find a way to retaliate. .

But deep down in his heart, he naturally didn't want the Jiang family to do this.

After all, his superior, Jiang Zhaoyin, is from the Jiang family. If this matter is really a battle between the Jiang family and Madam Xu, and he is a little guy caught in the middle, how pitiful he would be!

Xu Jing said coldly, "It's not the Jiang family either."

Yao Shaoyin was startled, and just as he was about to subconsciously ask why, a government servant suddenly ran in and shouted loudly: "Report to Yao Shaoyin, Shi Wenfeng... Shi Wenfeng's body has been found!"

Everyone's expressions suddenly changed.

How could Yao Shaoyin care about anything else? He lowered his face and said, "Tell me the specific situation!"

"Yes, a husband just came over to report the case, saying that when he and his friends were fishing by the Xiaodong River this morning, they caught a... corpse. He was shocked and immediately ran to the government office to report the case. I and several brothers went over to take a look and confirmed that the body was the missing Shi Wenfeng!" Xiaodongjiang is in the north of Xijing, and the house Shi Wenfeng rented is in the southeast of Xijing.

After he escaped through the tunnel, he did not leave Xijing, but went to Xiaodongjiang in the north!

Yao Shaoyin said in a deep voice: "Go over and take a look immediately!"

Because the poisoning incident has been basically confirmed to have nothing to do with Xu Jing and the others, and now another murder case has occurred. Yao Shaoyin paused, turned to look at Xu Jing and said, "Mrs. Xu, are you willing to assist us in investigating this case?"

Xu Jing certainly had no reason to be unwilling.

A few people quickly arrived at the place where the body was found, but they saw that it was far away from the dock of Xiaodongjiang River. The surrounding area was filled with ordinary people's residences, which was far less lively and prosperous than the dockside.

Liu Langjun and his friend Cao Langjun who discovered the body were still standing there. After Yao Shaoyin arrived, he was not in a hurry to see the body. He looked at them and asked: "When did you discover the body? On weekdays, you guys But do you often come here to fish? Are there many people coming here near here? "

Among the two people, Cao Langjun looked more outgoing and took a step forward to answer: "Little man... Xiaoman and Liu Langjun are good friends and share the hobby of fishing, so they would meet up to fish here from time to time. Because it is far away from the docks and streets, the environment is relatively quiet, and many people like to come here to fish.

But also because this place is not near the main street, not many people come here on weekdays.

After lunch today, Liu Langjun and I came here. The body... was found around Shen Shizheng (four o'clock in the afternoon). "

Yao Shaoyin nodded and took Xu Jing to the body not far away.

But seeing that Shi Wenfeng was still wearing the same blue-gray clothes from yesterday, Xu Jing put on her gloves and mask, squatted next to him, first roughly inspected his body, and said in a deep voice: "The deceased's body was completely stiff and stained. The color will not fade when pressed. It is judged that the deceased has been dead for at least six hours. It is now about 2:30 PM (5:30 pm). The deceased disappeared after returning home yesterday afternoon. His time of death should be after returning home yesterday afternoon. By around 9:00 this morning (five o'clock in the morning).

Because there are relatively few people around here on weekdays, it is unlikely to find a witness who happened to see the murderer commit the crime. "

A government official on the side suddenly said: "It is very likely that the murderer chose this place. He asked Shi Wenfeng to come here and kill him."

No matter how you look at it, this place is a very suitable place for killing people.

Another officer immediately said: "Nine times out of ten, the person who killed Shi Wenfeng was the one who ordered him to poison him. Then...how did he know that Shi Wenfeng could escape from his home?"

After knowing that the person who let Shi Wenfeng live in the courtyard with a tunnel was Lin Chengzhao, most people felt that the person who ordered Shi Wenfeng to poison could not have known that Shi Wenfeng could escape from his home through the tunnel.

After all, there is no need for Shi Wenfeng to tell that person about the existence of the tunnel. If that person does not know the existence of the tunnel, it will only be a good thing for Shi Wenfeng.

He and that person are not close friends. Strictly speaking, the relationship between the two is subtle and dangerous. Shi Wenfeng is not an idiot. He must know that he is in danger of being killed and silenced after he succeeds. And the authentic existence, This is his trump card to save his life.

How did the murderer know that he had escaped from his home? And let him come here and kill him?

Everyone looked at each other for a moment, and soon someone took a breath and said: "There are only two possibilities. One is that Shi Wenfeng took the initiative to contact the murderer, and the other is that the murderer... knew about the existence of that tunnel a long time ago!"
