Chapter 26: Joint resolution of the case
In the depths of Zhuxie Yamen, in a solemn building.
A thin and elegant middle-aged man in official clothes was smiling and saluting: "I thank Wenxi, the head of the Evil Punishment Department. Mr. Chen has no time to come here today, so I will welcome you two."< br>
"How dare you bother Mr. Chen with such a trivial matter? I will leave it to Mr. Xie to take charge today." A woman in white robe returned the greeting.
In this slightly plain room, there are two ice beds parked in the center, and the cold air is coming out. There are two corpses on the ice bed. They are a rough man and a beautiful woman. They are Yu Wenlong and Fengdie.
There were also two people standing on one side of the body.
One is a woman wearing a silver-white robe, with black hair hanging down to her waist. She has snow-white skin and ethereal eyes. She is holding a disk-sized white jade mirror in her hand. She does not look like an ordinary thing. This woman couldn't tell how old she was, and just standing there gave people a sense of being aloof from the world.
One is a majestic old man wearing the official uniform of the Ministry of Justice, with skin as rough as black iron and extremely sharp eyes.
The middle-aged director named Xie Wenxi introduced them one by one: "This is the Jade Mirror Priest of Wentian Tower. He is highly regarded by the great priests. He is willing to come to help today, but it is true that he was punished by me. "Xie Si is so proud."
The woman in white robe holding the mirror replied: "If Mr. Chen invites me, I will not refuse."
Xie Wenxi said again: "This is Mr. Wang, the chief prosecutor of the Criminal Department. He has solved countless major cases in the past forty years and is famous!"
"I don't dare to take it seriously." The old man was slightly modest, but looking at him The proud look between his eyebrows is quite useful.
Opposite the two ice beds, there are three young people from the Zhuxie Division.
A man with a tall and generous appearance is Shang Yunhai.
The other woman has a fair and delicate appearance, wearing a black fringed skirt, a white gauze shawl, a black ribbon around her waist, and a white jade hairpin. She stood there looking timid.
The last woman was dressed in white, without any makeup, and stood there quietly, but she seemed to have thousands of radiances gathered into her body. She was none other than Wen Yifan.
Xie Wenxi introduced the next three young people: "This is Shang Yunhai from the Xuanmen Hualong lineage, and Wen Yifan from the Yujian lineage. They are the two Zhuxie Divisions who are responsible for this case. Walking. This is Wei Ping'er, the descendant of the Danding lineage. Miss Wei Jiu is well versed in medicine, so she called her here."
The timid woman did not dare to raise her head, as if she was afraid of people. , but she didn’t react at all when she lowered her head towards the corpse.
"The reason why we invited both of you here today is because our Zhuxie Division encountered a difficult case." Xie Wenxi finally pointed at the two corpses, "This is the Nine Martingale lurking in our army. The spies and the girls from the brothel were all killed by the same poison. I don’t know if my Zhuxie Division was also infiltrated by Jiu Yang’s spies, or if they were poisoned by some other means. Please help me to see if I can find them. What clue.”
……
Next, Shang Yunhai briefly described the case so that the three foreign aids invited could understand it.
The most important thing is to determine whether there is any internal response from Jiu Yang in Zhuxie Division.
The composition of the Zhuxie Yamen is Chen Su and the eight disciples of Xuanmen he invited, plus some veterans of the Ministry of War who were sent to participate in the Battle of Tianxia. It is guaranteed to be an absolutely clean sword. , specially used to deal with Nine Martingale spies.
If there are internal problems like this, it means that Jiu Yang's penetration ability is extremely terrifying, and the matter is serious. To some extent, determining how Yu Wenlong died may be more important than digging up more clues through him.
This is how today’s joint verdict came about.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, Zhu Xie Division would not easily seek help from outsiders.
After listening to a series of situations, the Jade Mirror Priest was the first to speak: "I can try first to see if I can bring back their souls. But they have been dead for a long time, I don't know. Determine how many reunions can be made.”
“Just try, Priest Jade Mirror, don’t worry about the results,” Xie Wenxi said quickly.
The Great Priest Beiluo Shimen is one of the three great divine realms in the world. He sits in charge of Wentian Tower and rarely shows up. The priests under her are all accomplished mystics, and their status in the Yin Dynasty is extremely high. Even an organization like the Zhuxie Division, which is superior to other yamen, must respect them.
I saw the priest holding the white jade mirror, shining it at Yu Wenlong, muttering some ancient words in his mouth, the air around him began to buzz, as if something was talking to her echo each other.
Soon the noise expanded into a humming wind, and a wisp of turbid breath gathered on the chest of the corpse.
Response!
In that mirror, a deep vortex-like current appeared, vaguely enveloping Yu Wenlong's face with his eyes closed.
“Huh…” Priest Jade Mirror closed his eyes, as if communicating with the person in the mirror. After a while, she slowly dissipated her magical power.
"His emotions before his death ranged from unwillingness to anger, but overall he was relatively calm." Priest Jade Mirror said in a quiet voice: "He might have committed suicide, or he might have been willing to accept his own death."
Immediately afterwards, she used her magical power again to respond to the spirit of the butterfly butterfly.
Huh——
The wind blew up, and it was the same scene as before. This time, the face of the butterfly appeared in the jade mirror, but compared with Yu Wenlong before, Instead, it's a bit more blurry.
After the magical powers converged, Jade Mirror Priest opened his eyes, shook his head and said: "Although her death time is closer, she is only a mortal, and her spirit is too weak. I can only feel that she had some emotions before she died. Very sad.”
"This allows us to make conclusions about the environment before the death of the two people." Shang Yunhai said from the side.
"Priest Jade Mirror looks for clues from the soul, so I will look for clues from the body." Seeing that Priest Jade Mirror didn't get many clues, Wang Shendao lifted up his clothes and took out a bundle of cowhide bags from the hem. When it is spread out, you can see all kinds of knives, hooks, needles, scissors from large to small hanging on it...
The cold light is daunting.
"They all died of poisoning, right?" He impatiently took out a long silver needle, pierced it into Yu Wenlong's heart, and then pulled it out.
Then a scene that shocked everyone happened. Wang Shendao actually stuck out his tongue, licked the tip of the needle, and smacked it in his mouth.
"Hey! That's the heart-destroying Gu..." Miss Wei Jiu raised her hand anxiously.
"Don't be afraid, girl." Wang Shendao smiled nonchalantly, lifted up his sleeves and said, "Look what this is."
On his arm, there was a bulge. The golden flesh and blood rose and fell on his forearm, like a part of his body, or like a blood-sucking leech.
"Ah..." Wei Ping'er calmed down again.
Seeing this, Xie Wenxi said: "In ancient times, Saint Chu ascended and chopped down the Fantasy God Peak, and then fell ten major immortal species. One of them is called Tai Sui Gen, who can become an immortal if fed with the essence of the sun and moon. Eating its flesh and blood can detoxify all kinds of poisons, whiten the flesh and bones, and prolong life; feeding it with the flesh and blood of living beings can turn you into a demon. Eating its flesh and blood can strengthen your qi and blood, increase your cultivation, and make evil thoughts more intense. This piece of magic sword is definitely the legendary Immortal Tai Sui. Right? ”
"As expected of a member of Xuanmen." Wang Shendao nodded and said: "This is a piece of Immortal Tai Sui that I bought at a great cost back then. I have been feeding it for more than ten years. Without it, I would have died dozens of times."< br>
While speaking, he stabbed Swallowtail's heart again and smacked the taste.
Immediately, he said to everyone: "The taste of the heart-destroying poison on these two people is not the same. They should not be poisoned by the same person."
"You can taste the heart-destroying poison. Taste?" Wei Ping'er asked in a low voice, a little disbelieving.
"You don't know this, right? It's easy to distinguish between poisonous poisons. The taste of poisonous insects raised by different people is different." Wang Shen Dao said, "The heart-destroying poison is probably in Jiu Yang There are six or seven people who can be raised, and I have tasted half of them. The origins of these two people are definitely not from the same family.”
"That is to say, those who killed Yu Wenlong and those who killed Fengdie were not the same person, at least the source of the poison was different." Xie Wenxi concluded.
“However, no matter who raises the heart-destroying Gu, once swallowed it will cause a very rapid onset of effects, and this will not change. Therefore, the source must be food or people that the deceased came into contact with in a short period of time. Wang Shendao said again, "Listening to the case you just described, I would say that the swordsmen in the Zhuxie Department who had contact with this man and the people in Miaoyin Pavilion who had contact with this woman should be arrested and tortured. There will be gains."
"Mr. Wang, we can't go to jail without any evidence." Xie Wenxi said helplessly.
Wang Shendao glared: "What more evidence do you need? This poison is the evidence. If you ask me to deal with Jiu Yang's spy, I should rather kill the wrong one than let him go! What case can I handle with my hands tied?"
Is this the thunderous method used by the old criminals?
All those present could only smile.
Although the Zhuxie Yamen has done a lot of ruthless things in the past two years since its establishment, and the severity shocked everyone above the court, but the main reason is that it has nothing to do with anyone. If you are afraid, you will punish whoever needs to be punished. As for the specific methods of handling cases, Chen Su, the head of the Zhuxie Division, still adheres to principles and will not blindly abuse punishment.
If he was really that unscrupulous person, these Xuanmen disciples of Xianyun Yehe would not always help him.
"In my opinion, your case is difficult to solve." Shen Dao Guzuo shook his head and said: "If I really want to solve the case, I have only one idea."
