Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!

  Chapter 210 A Strong Man

  Chu Nanzhi followed Li Sanmu and several yamen servants to rush to the county captain's mansion.

It was also the wall that fell down and everyone pushed it down. A funeral was going on in the County Lieutenant's Mansion, but the courtyard was terribly deserted. Seeing the figures of the government servants, they huddled in the mourning hall obediently and did not dare to come out. In the end, they had to send a little maid to lead the way .

  Although he is just a Jiupin county lieutenant in a poor and remote area like Haikang County, the whole mansion is built in a very grand style, with pavilions and pavilions everywhere, which is quite artistic.

   Arriving in the courtyard where Qi Dongqiang lived, Guan Erbai had already ordered people to guard all the openings to protect the crime scene.

  Seeing the figure of Chu Nanzhi and his party, Guan Erbai immediately greeted him, and called out with a smile: "Sister-in-law."

  It is completely different from the previous cold attitude.

  Chu Nanzhi responded lightly, looked around, and asked casually, "Can you find anything unusual?"

  Guan Erbai shook his head blankly: "We don't have enough manpower, just enough to guard the scene, and we don't have time to look around."

  Chu Nanzhi nodded, and looked at the maid at the side: "Have any strangers come to the mansion today?"

  Thinking of the guests who might come to express their condolences, she narrowed the scope a bit: "Did anyone else come to this courtyard within this hour?"

  The little maid replied full of fear: "Since the head of the family was killed yesterday, Madam has been bedridden. My little man's daily life is served by servants. Except for the doctor who came to consult yesterday, no one else has been in the yard."

  Chu Nanzhi took a closer look at the maid, seeing her terrified appearance, she was submissive, not like she dared to kill with a knife.

  Furthermore, this maid looks mediocre, and a **** like Qi Dongqiang who hangs around in the court of love and moon is afraid that he will look down on the little girl in the mansion.

   "Let's examine the corpse first."

  Chu Nanzhi gave orders, and stepped into the room first.

  The bed in the bedroom was already covered in blood, and the blood extended from the side of the bed to the coffee table.

  Seeing this, Guan Erbai whispered in her ear, "It's throat cutting."

  Chu Nanzhi bypassed the bloodstains, and looked around the deceased carefully, only to see that the deceased's face was grim and distorted, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying before he died.

   Taking a closer look, there were two sunken white marks on both sides of the deceased's eyes.

  Chu Nanzhi thought for a while, afraid that someone tried to forcefully close the eyes of the deceased but failed, so these two white marks were pinched on the blackened face.

  She reached out her hand to touch the hollow at the corner of her eye, and found that the cheekbones at the corner of her eye had been damaged and collapsed.

  The assailant is probably no less powerful than a strong man like Li Ce.

   Probably not suicide.

   No need to check the poor cover-up at the scene, she first confirmed to Li Sanmu and Guan Erbai: "It's not suicide, it's homicide."

   "He killed?"

   A group of people looked at each other in disbelief.

Chu Nanzhi squatted down and checked the dagger he was holding: "If it was suicide, after the deceased cut open the neck forcefully, if the hand hangs down from the bed, it will fall apart feebly, but look at this dagger. Someone squeezed his palm tightly."

   As she spoke, she focused her attention on the gesture of pinching her fist again. There was an obvious tendency to bend her finger joints, which was in line with her previous guess, and the assailant was extremely powerful.

   Taking a closer look, she suddenly found blood stains stuck between the nails of the deceased.

  Break apart your fingers, and find a few traces of rough skin from the human body mixed in the blood from between the nails.

   "It seems that Qi Dongqiang once tried to resist the murderer's assassination. If I guessed right, he must have scratched the murderer's arm holding the knife. These rough skins trapped in the nails must have been scratched from the murderer's body."

  Chu Nanzhi watched carefully and carefully analyzed:

"This yard is not far from the mourning hall. If an unknown person comes in to commit murder, the deceased will definitely be alerted. Judging from the grim expression of the deceased, the corners of the mouth are closed and the eyes are wide open. It is obvious that the person is not aware of it until the moment of death. He wanted to kill him, but it was too late to call for help, and then his mouth was covered and his throat was cut and he died."

  After roughly analyzing the circumstances of the crime, Chu Nanzhi quickly ordered: "Going into the mansion to kill people in such a hasty way will definitely leave a loophole. You should look around carefully to see if you can find any clues."

  When Li Sanmu and Guan Erbai heard the sound, they immediately dispersed to the courtyard with a few servants to search.

   Taking advantage of this gap, Chu Nanzhi looked around the room while observing the maid.

  This little girl is skinny, even if she hates this young man, she doesn't have the strength to snap off his cheekbones or pinch his knuckles.

  Thinking of what happened on the night when Qi Dongqiang's case happened, Chu Nanzhi asked with confidence: "How does your little lord treat you?"

   "On weekdays, on weekdays."

  A simple question, but the little maid hesitated to answer.

   "It doesn't matter, both father and son died suddenly, and now even the county magistrate has been imprisoned, if you know something, there is no need to hide it for him."

  Chu Nanzhi comforted with a warm smile.

The little maid suddenly knelt down, rolled up her sleeves aggrieved and cried, and signaled to her: "The slaves and the older sisters in the house were bought by the Qi family forcibly. Get angry, the wound on this servant's hand was scalded with wax oil by Mr. Xiao Lang."

Chu Nanzhi fixed her eyes and saw bruises and a few scars on her arms, but there were no fresh scratches. She comforted her with distress: "You don't have to be afraid. Uphold justice, and I will definitely make decisions for you.”

"Um."

  The little maid replied pitifully, sobbing and stroking the tears on her face.

  Chu Nanzhi waited for her to stabilize before continuing to ask: "On the night of the 24th of last month, do you remember when your little man returned to your house?"

  The little maid recalled it in her mind, and said slowly: "I remember that I didn't return to the house until noon the next day."

   "Noon the next day?"

  Chu Nanzhi was startled, this is not what it sounds like.

  But on second thought, even if this kid killed Zhu Yue, he might continue to go back to the brothel and wait until noon the next day.

  Looking at the little maid with a smile, she continued to ask gently: "Then, have you heard about your little man and the daughter of a wealthy family in the west of the city?"

  The little maid shook her head blankly.

After pondering for a while, she suddenly raised her head and shouted excitedly: "However, these days, my servant often hears the little man venting in a muffled voice, saying something like 'little bitch, I don't want to come to the house even if I die'" if."

   "Well, I see."

  Chu Nanzhi stopped asking questions, thinking that the little maid didn't know too much, and led her out of the house.

At this time, Guan Erbai led two yamen servants and ran over in a hurry, shouting incessantly: "Sister-in-law, I found fresh climbing footprints on the west courtyard wall, and even crushed the edge of the wall. "

Hearing the sound, Chu Nanzhi followed a few people to the west courtyard wall, and when they got there, they saw a clear line of footprints on the edge of the wall, with mud marks on it, and the location they turned out was exactly as Guan Erbai said. Where it was crushed, there were white traces of ash.

  She first told Guan Erbai: "You leave two people guarding the county captain's mansion, and everyone who enters and exits must pay close attention."

   Then he took people out of the courtyard.
