Brocade clothing

Chapter 15
Qin Butou looked at the master, and the master handed over something: "My lord, Qin Butou went to check it out personally. There is indeed a pair of twin sisters in Liu's residence. One is named A Zhen and the other is named A Bao. They died so badly." It is clear whether it is Ah Bao or Ah Zhen."

"What about the other one?" Master Xu frowned as he looked at the testimony in his hand.

"Missing." Master replied.

Master Xu frowned even tighter, and continued to look at Chu Qing: "Even if this is the case, it does not prove that you did not kill the person."

"Last night when Caomin was there, the deceased died for more than twelve hours, and at that time, Caomin was still in Qingshui Town." Chu Qing replied.

"You're lying!" the butler hurriedly said from the side.

"Silence!" Master Xu patted the gavel: "Speak, butler."

"It's such an adult. This person sneaked into my Liu residence as Liu Cui's natal brother. He originally had malicious intentions. Later, it was obvious that he killed someone. He insisted on pleading that it was Abao who died more than twelve years ago. Shi Chen, intending to use this method to exonerate himself, his heart is to be punished, my lord. How can a young man know so clearly about things that Qian Wuzuo doesn't even know?" The housekeeper said "filled with righteous indignation".

"Chu Qing, are you convicted?" Master Xu asked.

"The grass people don't recognize it." Chu Qing glanced at Qin Tuntou, who nodded to her, and she was relieved.

"Come on, please invite Qian Wuzuo and Liang Wuzuo to be present." Master Xu said.

Not long after, Qian Wuzuo and Liang Wuzuo came to the scene, but what was surprising was that there were two other Wuzuo behind them, who were invited by the neighboring county overnight.

"This is?" Master Xu looked at Master.

"My lord, this is the order of Catcher Qin, who said that he will do a verification later." The master said.

"That's it," Mr. Xu didn't ask anything, but looked at Qian Wuzuo and Liang Wuzuo: "Can you two find out that putting the corpse in ice can delay the death of the corpse?"

The two shook their heads: "I haven't found it, there is no record in the ancient books."

"Chu Qing, did you hear clearly? Since there is no substantive proof, then my lord will pronounce the sentence now, and Chu Qing will kill..."

"Wait." Chu Qing stopped Master Xu's next words: "Although Qian Wuzuo and others didn't find the classics, what if Caomin can prove it on the spot?"

"Huh?" The gavel raised by Master Xu slowly lowered: "On-site proof?"

"Yeah." Chu Qing nodded to Qin Butou.

Qin Butou came forward: "My lord, in order to prevent unjust cases from happening, this subordinate boldly did a verification without telling your master. I wonder if it is possible to submit the verification result?"

The people watching outside the lobby were also watching curiously, not understanding what they were going to do, and whispering to each other.

Master Xu glanced down the hall, and someone from the hall immediately shouted: "Submit it, submit it, we need to see what kind of verification it is, can putting the corpse in ice really delay the time of death of the corpse? How to verify this?" ?”

"Yes, yes, we need to see..."

"..."

When the crowd whispered to each other, Mr. Xu just nodded his head: "Qin Butou, present the things."

Qin Butou responded, glanced at Chu Qing and the butler, waved his hands, and asked people to lift the things up.

But after the thing was lifted up, everyone fell silent, and the surroundings suddenly became so quiet, completely silent.

It's just because it was two corpses that Qin Tutou had someone lift up, or two corpses with their heads and bodies separated.

"Qin Tutou, you are..." Mr. Xu turned pale and managed to maintain his composure.

"Here are two corpses and four corpses. The four foremen present will examine the two bodies and tell the time of their death." Qin Butou waved his hand, and immediately the officer tore off the white cloth, a little timid. He immediately covered his eyes, not daring to look at the bloody scene.

The four of Qian Wuzuo were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, but said nothing else, stepped forward and began to examine the four corpses carefully.

The four corpses are two adult men, with two heads and two bodies. The head and body are cut off from the neck respectively. It seems that they should be death row prisoners, and the cuts are neat.

After the four forensic examinations were completed, they wrote their own autopsy lists on the white cloths at the soles of the four corpses, and then returned to their positions.

Mr. Xu couldn't understand what Qin Butou was going to do, but he didn't say much. Qin Butou had been by his side for so many years, and he still trusted him. This was the first time he made a decision privately. But it's not worth pursuing too much.

Qin Butou waited for all the assistants to go back, and then returned to the front of the hall, pointed to the four corpses, and explained to everyone: "These four corpses came from two corpses. Let's take a look now, the four have experience What is the time of death written by the author?" Qin Tutou went to the first head, picked up the autopsy sheets of the four authors, and read them one by one: "Male skull, the time of death is about five hours. "

He continued to walk down, and when he reached another head, he read: "Male head B, the time of death is about eleven o'clock."

He didn't stop, and continued to walk. When he reached the first corpse, he picked up the autopsy sheet and said, "The autopsy sheets for the four corpses are still the same. The male body C died about five hours ago."

He raised his head, glanced at Chu Qing, then looked at the helpless crowd, and continued to walk to the last corpse: "The male corpse died at about eleven o'clock."

After he finished speaking, he faced Master Xu again: "My lord, this subordinate is finished."

"But, this... Qin Tutou, why didn't I understand what you mean? This can prove it? It's not obvious, but it needs to be verified? Two corpses, one dead for five hours, one dead for eleven Shi Chen, what's the use of this?" Master Xu was at a loss.

But Qin Tutou smiled and said: "My lord, I haven't finished talking yet. How do you think the four bodies of A, B, C and D should be combined? Which one is one?"

Master Xu was also amused: "Captain Qin, are you testing my IQ? It must be A and C. Didn't you see that the time of death they verified was five hours?"

Everyone also nodded: "Yes, yes, isn't this obvious?"

Qin Butou didn't speak, but waved his hand to let the yamen servant do it.

The yamen servant then picked up A's head and put it on C's corpse, but a shocking scene appeared, the head and the body couldn't completely overlap, everyone was dumbfounded, and stretched their necks to see: "Oh my god, this, What the hell is going on here? Why can’t they match? Don’t tell me that A and D are a corpse, but it’s five hours since the head died, but the body is eleven hours! Could it be that a person’s head and body can still die? no the same?!"

There was an endless stream of questions, and Qin Qin looked at Chu Qing and nodded.

Chu Qing then said: "Let me explain, these four corpses, put together, are two complete corpses, the time of death is the same, they are all prisoners who were executed at [-]:[-] noon yesterday."

"..." Everyone gasped and stared at Chu Qing in disbelief. Is he crazy?
Chu Qing continued: "Qin Tutou can testify to this point. The reason why everyone finds it incredible is because the four corpses died at different times." She motioned for Qin Tutou to do it, and Qin Tutou took the head of Jia When it landed on Ding's body, it fit perfectly, and everyone was dumbfounded.

Five hours of head death?Eleven hours after the body died?
how can that be?

Chu Qing looked at the housekeeper whose face changed, and continued slowly: "Everyone has also seen that the head of this corpse is different from the time of death of the body. The specific reason is that the head was killed five hours ago last night. I got the ice cellar and frozen it, so this scene happened. This is what Qin Tutou wants to prove to the adults. After the corpse is frozen, it can indeed delay the death of the corpse. And the head of the frozen corpse will bleed from the seven orifices. Qin Botou can also prove it. Therefore, the grass people are not guilty, and the corpse of Ah Bao in front of him has indeed been frozen."

As soon as Chu Qing's words fell, the entire hall fell into a deathly silence. No one said a word for a long time. After digesting Chu Qing's words, they couldn't help clapping their hands.

They have never seen such a proof of their innocence, and they have really learned a lot.

The four of Qian Wuzuo also stared at this scene dumbfounded. They looked at each other, and then looked at Chu Qing with a bit of confidence and praise. I'm afraid this young man is not simple.

The housekeeper opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Mr. Xu: "Ahem, from this point of view, it is indeed the case. It seems that this little brother has added another touch to the classics. I can write Add it to the application submitted by the letter."

"But about your lord's matter..." the butler couldn't help but said, anxiously, if you let this matter go lightly, what would the master say?
"Silence!" Mr. Xu felt a headache when he heard the voice outside the hall, whispered to the master, then coughed, and said solemnly: "The evidence for this matter is convincing, the judge once again pronounced the verdict, and Chu Qing was released without charge. In the case of the murder of A Bao in the Liu family, the murder suspect will be caught and interrogated later, and he will withdraw from the courtroom."

"Mighty——" The thud thud thud knocked on the ground, and Master Xu left the hall with a flick of his sleeves.

Only then did Chu Qing heave a sigh of relief, and looked at Qin Tutou with gratitude.

At the same time, outside the lobby, behind the crowd, two slender figures stood there silently, taking in all the scene of the court hearing just now.

The leading man was tall and straight, and his majestic aura made people couldn't help but take a few more glances. At this time, he was standing at the end of the crowd, so he didn't attract attention.The man had one hand behind his back, and a pair of black pupils were tightly locked on Chu Qing who was in the hall, thoughtfully.

"Master?" Yu Zufeng took his eyes away from Chu Qing, put away the surprise in his eyes, he really saw the right person at the beginning, but it's a pity that this little brother of the Chu family is too stubborn.

"Go." The man's thin lips moved, turned around, and strode out.It was as if he was just watching a play, Chu Qing was in the play, and he was outside.
