Tang Shuhuai blushed now.

The Tang family's uncle pushed him angrily, "Why are you still standing there? Go and get it! Isn't it just in your treasure house?"

He said with a worried look on his face. He didn't know why his younger brother was so out of tune and his hobbies were very different from ordinary people.

Not only did he sing the dead people's songs, he also collected dead people's belongings without even a trace of dirt. Every day he was either going crazy or driving his family members crazy.

Because of this, he was only in his early thirties and his hair was already gray with worry, making him look like he was fifty.

Tang Shuhuai said "Oh" and then trotted out.

Seeing him leaving, Wu Jiang walked quickly to the door, put his boots outside, and then ran back to Gu Shiwei, "The old man's autopsy showed the results. Wang Quan did not die of a sudden illness. Instead, he was shot into his ankle with a poisonous needle first."

"The poisonous needle is still in the bones. The old man said it is not the kind of poison that bleeds from all the orifices like Li Zhenxian. But it can make people paralyzed and stiff."

"This is consistent with what Tang Shuhuai just said. He should have fallen straight down."

Wu Jiang said and touched his chin.

"But it's a pity that the body has already decomposed. There is no way to judge whether his feet were caught by water plants or walnuts at that time."

If the person died not long ago, many facts can be inferred from the bruises on the body. Unfortunately, as time goes by, this kind of evidence cannot be preserved.

Gu Shiwei looked at Wu Jiang thoughtfully, "What about the angle at which the poisonous needle was injected? Is it forced in by internal force or by a crossbow machine?"

Wu Jiang opened his eyes and looked at Gu Shiwei, "My dear, how about we make a change. You come to Kaifeng Mansion as a promotion officer, and I go to the Imperial City Division to kill you?"

As he said this, he felt it was a pity.

After all, this court belongs to Erlang. That is to say, spies like Huang Chengsi are not limited to men, women, old or young. Sometimes it is easier for women to act.How could the nearby Yamen want a girl's family?

"It's really unfair. You are obviously much better than me in terms of family matters. I am still a foundation, and you are already a tall building."

Gu Shiwei was too lazy to pay attention to his nonsense and brought him back to normal, "What do you say, old man?"

Wu Jiang said "oh" a few times and spoke without hesitation, "He said it, he said it was shot from the bottom up. If Wang Quan was standing on the bridge, it might have been shot from the shore. Yes, but he was walking on the shore, so it could only have been shot from the water."

"As for whether it was thrown by a martial arts master or shot by a crossbow machine, he didn't mention it. I guess he couldn't tell."

The corner of Gu Shinwei's mouth twitched, did the old man know that you said that about him?
No wonder Wu Jiang went straight to Tang Shuhuai after returning from the cemetery. He must have been instructed by the old man to come here to prove their suspicion that the murderer was hidden in the water through Tang Shuhuai's confession.

Gu Shiwei never thought that she was the only smart person in the world.

She would not be so arrogant as to think that she was the only one who could think of the level at which the letter Chen Shenji wrote to Wang Quan was stolen.

"It's this walnut! After I got it back, I had someone make a bracket and put it on my ancient shelf. I haven't touched it at all. What it looked like when I picked it up is what it looks like now. .”

"Is it such a coincidence? You happened to have kept the evidence that the government needed in good condition," Gu Shiwei looked at Tang Shuhuai and choked.Tang Shuhuai was stunned and waved his hand quickly, "No, no. If this walnut is not cleaned, the scent of the water ghost may remain on it, and it may one day be able to summon spirits. It is a rare treasure worth collecting. But If it is cleaned, it is just an ordinary walnut, worthless.”

He said, hesitated for a moment, and handed the walnut to Gu Shiwei.

Gu Shiwei took it and saw that it was indeed an ordinary walnut, worthless.

As Tang Shuhuai said before, this walnut is wrapped with a red rope. This red rope is not a single strand, but has been carefully braided and has many wear and tear on it. It is an old thing worn around the neck all year round.

Gu Shiwei picked up the walnut, walked to the door and looked at the light.

This kind of walnut pendant has irregular grooves on its surface, making it very easy to hide dirt and evil. However, this one is fine, and there is no obvious foreign matter to the naked eye.

Gu Shiwei handed the walnut to Jing Li, who was standing aside with his arms folded, without stopping.

Jing Li held the walnut's hand and hesitated for a moment. He looked around at the people in the room, felt relieved, put the walnut under his nose and closed his eyes.

"The smell of water plants and moss is very light, almost inaudible. It has a strong smell of incense, like the kind of strong fragrance used by barbarians in the Western Regions to cover up body odor. This smell is so pungent that it almost covers up other smells."

"Well, there's also the smell of some animal excrement. Its owner might live in a cowshed or pick up dung."

Jing Li said, not daring to open his eyes for a long time.

What a shame!In public, he sniffed around like a dog and said such mysterious words that made people laugh.

Could it be that Gu Shiwei was deliberately humiliating him?There are many high-ranking officials in the Imperial City who want to tame their subordinates, so they do this.

"How long will it take for you to be blind if you use this nose once?"

Hearing Gu Shiwei's words, Jing Li opened his eyes suddenly. Are you blind?

Just as he was about to curse, he saw Gu Shiwei looking at him with admiration, "It's amazing! As I speculated, this walnut was probably left in the river a long time ago and hung on the water plants, and then in It was lucky enough that it hung on Wang Quan's ankle when he fell into the water."

"But when Tang Shuhuai went into the water to save people, the murderer was also hiding in the water. He was searching for the things on the king's body that had not yet left."

"The first time you couldn't pull Wang Quan, it wasn't that he was entangled in the water plants, but the murderer was also pulling him. The walnut you accidentally caught was probably pulled from his neck."

"Walnuts tend to trap dirt and evil. If they are soaked in water for a long time, the cracks are likely to turn green and have a strong smell of aquatic plants."

Gu Shiwei said and looked at Jing Li with praise again, "The reason why it is difficult to investigate cases on rainy days is because rain can easily wash away traces of crimes. Footprints, smells, and blood will all disappear under the erosion of water."

"If this walnut had been at the bottom of the water early in the morning, even a talented person like Jing Li would have only been able to smell the strong smell of water."

Therefore, the person who was ordered by the mastermind behind the weapon-breaking case to take away Wang's secret message was not the rescuer Tang Shuhuai, but the murderer who had been lurking under the water early in the morning, the "water" that Liu Yang told her. ghost"!
Jing Li watched Gu Shiwei's mouth move open and close. His ears were buzzing and he couldn't hear clearly what Gu Shiwei was saying.

Four words bounced around in his mind: "Extraordinary talent" and "powerful person"!
Yaoshou!This peak is so powerful, you can grasp seven inches of him as soon as you get there!
He's not afraid of anything, he's just afraid of being touched!If you scold him, he can scold him back!But she praised him!
