The Forensic Doctor's Daughter-in-law

Chapter 225 Why did he die, a back view (3)
The remaining paper on the painting table is a few blank sheets, with no traces of painting on them.

But since I came upstairs to paint, how could there be no paintings?Dou Zihan and the others wandered around, and suddenly, everyone's eyes were fixed, because, just to the west of the painting pavilion, there was a finished painting, on which there was a woman, who should be a very young and beautiful woman. This is what everyone present thought when they saw this painting for the first time.

But no one can see the appearance of the person in the painting through this painting, because the person in this painting is only a back view, only a back view is drawn, not a frontal portrait, probably the back view is really wonderfully drawn, It actually makes people feel that this back view is more thought-provoking than the front view.

When people see such a back figure in the painting, there will be a kind of longing in their hearts, longing for the person in the painting to turn around at this moment, turn around quickly, turn around, let yourself take a look, and thus It can be seen that the artist of the painter is indeed extraordinary. So, this painting appeared here, could it be that it was painted by Mr. Pei Shijiu?

Because it's just a back view, no one knows who the woman in this painting is?Although, when Dou Zihan saw this painting, her eyes flickered for a moment. She felt that although the dress on the portrait was just the back, the style, color, and the ornaments on the woman's waist were all familiar, very similar to her Qixi Festival. The dress worn at the temple fair.

But this guess is just a guess, she can't just say it in front of so many people.

Of course, for the few of them, the location where the painting hangs is the most important thing. If their visual inspection is correct, the railing next to the painting seems to be the location where Mr. Pei Shijiu fell.

Murong Yue was naturally the first to go up to the railing and looked down. The place facing the railing was indeed the place where Mr. Pei Shijiu fell. Although Mr. Pei Shijiu had already been carried back to his yard, the ground There were still blood stains that had not been treated, which had turned black, and attracted some flies and mosquitoes to swirl on it.

Murong Yue vigorously shook the railing in front of her with her hands. The railing was not broken, which meant that it was not the railing that was broken that caught Mr. Pei Shijiu falling from it.

Then, a normal person would not jump over the railing and fall directly, unless he wanted to commit suicide, but why did Mr. Pei Shijiu commit suicide?Suicide always has a motive.

At this time, several other people had also checked the railing, and they were all silent, only Dou Zihan and Mrs. Dingguo's eyes were still on the painting hanging next to them.

The ink and colors on the painting are all new, it should be painted by Mr. Pei Shijiu before his death.

Both Dou Zihan and Mrs. Dingguo felt that this painting, hanging on the place where Mr. Pei Shijiu fell from the building before his death, seemed to indicate something?Does it have anything to do with the death of Young Master Pei Nineteen?

"Husband, Murong, Zihan, the condition of the railing can rule out the possibility that the nineteenth brother fell to his death by accident, so now there are only two inferences left. One, the nineteenth brother committed suicide, and two, he was killed by someone else." Those who push it down, it is actually very simple to figure out this point, all you need to do is call the person who served the nineteenth brother up to inquire."

"Go and ask Xiao Anzi to come up." Master Pei ordered.Xiao Anzi was the personal servant of Young Master Pei Shijiu, and he was the first to discover that Young Master Pei Shijiu had fallen from the building. At this time, he was waiting downstairs.

"Yes, Lord Hou."

A moment later, a handsome boy with the appearance of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old servant went upstairs and stood in front of them.

The boy's eyes were still red, and he looked very sad. I don't know if it was Dou Zihan's illusion, but she always felt that there was something inexplicable flashing in the boy's eyes looking at her.

"Little Anzi has met Lord Hou, madam, Lord Murong."

"Xiao Anzi, how did you serve your master, why did your master fall from the upstairs, I still don't tell the truth." Murong Yue took the lead to ask.

"Returning to my lord, Xiao Anzi doesn't know. In the past few days, the son didn't want to be entangled by the girl from the Chen family, and he brought the little one here to paint as usual. At first, everything was fine, there was nothing unusual, the son was just quiet. The younger one is only responsible for grinding the ink and arranging the paper for the young master. After the young master finishes the painting over there, everything is still fine and there is nothing unusual. After the young master finished the painting, he asked the young one if the painting was good. Okay, the little one naturally agreed, and then the young master said that he also thought this painting was very good, so he wanted to hang it up. At this time, the son said that he was a little hungry, and ordered the younger one to prepare some snacks. The younger one took the order, went downstairs, and walked to the kitchen. On the way, he met sister Xiaohan. She was also serving in the young master's yard, and the younger one thought that there was no one else waiting for the pen and ink around the young master, so she asked Xiaohan to take me to the kitchen to ask for some snacks. Sister Xiaohan knew that the young master wanted some snacks, and she didn't refuse, so she agreed After getting down, he went to the kitchen. The little one saw that sister Xiaohan had gone to the kitchen, so he returned to the painting building. When the little one went upstairs, he saw the young master touching every corner of the painting with his hands. The little one didn't pay attention. Going up, the young master has always had a hobby, at this moment, the young one saw that the young master suddenly seemed to take two steps back, and seemed to say a word, and then the young one heard the young master calling someone's name, He turned to one side and jumped out of the railing. The little one was stunned when he saw this, and mistakenly thought that his eyes were blurred. Shocked, he even knocked over the inkstone in his hand, and wanted to shout: "Master, don't!" But the little one felt that he couldn't make a sound, so he watched the young master's body fall in front of the little one. At that time, the little one was frightened and stupid, and began to think that he had hallucinations in front of his eyes, but Immediately, there was a scream from behind. It turned out that sister Xiaohan happened to bring the snacks up at this time, and saw the young master fall from above. That's how it happened. Lord Hou, Mrs. Xiaoan knew that he had not taken good care of the young master, and was willing to accept any punishment."

Although Xiao Anzi was a little emotional, he probably explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly. From Xiao An's narration, he could hear that Mr. Pei Nineteen should have fallen by himself. No one else showed up, so this ruled out the possibility of being pushed down from behind and fell to death. Of course, this is just Xiao Anzi's one-sided statement. Whether what Xiao Anzi said is true needs further investigation.

"Whose name was the nineteenth brother calling before he fell?" At this moment, General Pei Houye, who had been silent all this time, spoke.

"Returning to Master Hou, the young master called...you called...Miss Dou." Xiao Anzi glanced at Dou Zihan, even if he didn't have to speak, the others probably understood what he meant.

"Is it me?" Dou Zihan frowned, and his expression became serious.She was also very surprised by the answer, but if Xiao Anzi hadn't lied, why did Young Master Pei Nineteen call her before he died?
