Chu's Zhaohua

Chapter 27

When the two arrived at the gate of the yamen, many people had already surrounded them. The two of them were small and thin, and they easily squeezed into the crowd and stood at the front. At a glance, they knew what was going on. It was the county magistrate of the yamen who was trying the case. There were two people kneeling in the center of the meeting hall, an old man and a middle-aged man, and there was another person lying on the ground, and the lying person was covered with a white cloth, obviously dead.

The old man was about six or seventy years old, with a slightly arched body and a gray beard. The middle-aged man was about forty years old, with rough skin and ordinary clothes, just like ordinary people.

The first time Chu Yun saw the dead person, her face turned pale, her body tensed up, and she even hugged Chu Chan's arm tightly.

Chu Chan was a forensic doctor in her previous life, and she had seen many dead people, but now she looks normal.

The hundred paces covering the deceased were stained with a lot of blood, and they were still bright red, obviously they died not long ago.

Chu Chan glanced around, and besides the people nearby, Chen Qing was also among them, as were the other two assistants. It was obvious that they were on duty at the moment, and they also watched the fun together.

Chen Qing also noticed Chu Chan, and nodded at her slightly, and Chu Chan also smiled slightly.

In addition to these people, Chu Chan also noticed a middle-aged man in his thirties in the crowd. The man looks average, with a medium build, a square face, and a pair of eyes that make people a little unhappy. There is a hint of actuarial calculation and a hint of panic. Chu Chan made a note and went to look inside the yamen again.

The county magistrate said, "Who is down here calling for injustice!"

The middle-aged man in ordinary clothes hurriedly kowtowed, "My lord, it's a villain who complained, my father was murdered, I beg my lord to make the decision for the villain."

The county magistrate said, "Come quickly!"

The middle-aged man said, "Today, the villain came back from work and found blood stains in the backyard. He found my father lying on the ground. The villain panicked and hurried forward to help my father. My father only said "Ge" in the villain's ear. I went, the villain knew that the Ge family that my father said was the Ge family, and there were some grievances on weekdays. The villain was angry and went to the Ge family to find someone. Master Ge was still stained with blood. He admitted that he had killed my father by mistake, and begged the elder to be a villain Make the decision."

Everyone saw that Old Ge was covered in blood.

Chu Yun whispered in Chu Chan's ear, "This Ge Lao usually has a good reputation, but he can kill people. It's really unbelievable."

Speaking of Elder Ge, Chu Chan also thought of something. The Ge family is also a somewhat famous person in the county, just because the Ge family's main clan is an official in Yecheng, the capital of the Qin State, and as a branch attached to the clan, there are naturally some Although the little fame is only a side effect, life is not bad.

This Elder Ge seems to be blind, and he is usually kind, so what happened to this murder by mistake?
The county magistrate asked Ge Lao, "Is there such a thing?"

Ge Laodao, "It's all the old man's fault. I had some quarrels with Niu's father today. I was so angry that I picked up a stone and threw him at him. I didn't want to hit him too hard. The old man will punish him."

The county magistrate called Wu Zuo to come for the autopsy. Wu Zuo stepped forward to lift the white cloth and inspected it. Sure enough, he saw the traces of the stone smashing on the back of the deceased's head. Now the witnesses have admitted it. It seems that the lawsuit has been judged well. up.

When Chu Chan saw the scar on the back of the deceased's head, she couldn't help frowning, her eyes skipped over the deceased, and she immediately concluded that it wasn't Ge Lao who killed him.
