Chapter 356 Quack and Random Killing
The Jianghu people will not get involved with the imperial court, and the imperial court will not interfere with the affairs of the Jianghu people. The two sides are not in conflict with each other.
But having said that, there seems to be a big problem in this little city.
A thousand-faced ferocious phoenix is in the city, the crazy monk Du Chun is outside the city, and Tang Lianyu, the eldest daughter of Tang Feng Company, is the one who leads the way. The Wen and Qing families, who have always had a grudge, committed murders almost at the same time and blamed each other. The government Not only did they not try to reconcile, but they covered it up...
It's so troublesome, really troublesome.
Qin Yan felt like his scalp was numb just by looking at the information he had obtained so far. He especially wanted to get rid of Yang Yiyi and rush to Liangcheng to join Zhou Yuxuan.
But she knew that if she really did this, she would be punished even if she got punished.
However, Yang Yiyi seemed completely unaware of how deep the water was, and she stupidly asked Wen Peng about the situation at the time of the crime.
For a big family business like this, there are several accounting offices.
The accountant who died in the Wen family was the youngest among them. He was introduced by the old accountant in the family. It is said that he was a cousin of the old accountant.
He is about thirty years old, and he is a kind-hearted person. He has worked in the Wen family for two months, and during this period, he has never been romantically involved with anyone. He is a well-connected person.
At the time of the incident, he was alone in the room. Since it was almost the end of the year, he had to pay accounts to female workers and the silk factory. The accounting clerks were very busy, and many people would work by midnight.
This was originally a very common thing, but early the next morning, a servant saw that the light was still on in the deceased's room, thinking that the deceased had fallen asleep while settling accounts.
However, there was no response when I knocked on the door. When I opened the door, I saw that the cashier was dead on the table.
The government sent people to investigate and found that the fatal injury was a sword wound on the back of the neck, which penetrated directly through the back of the head. The technique was sharp and fast, and a life was lost with just one sword blow.
Wu Zuo judged that the deceased was killed in the early morning, probably around Chou hour. The more specific time is unknown.
At this time, everyone in Wen Mansion was asleep, and no one saw anything unusual or heard any movement.
The reason why the Qing family was accused of doing this is actually very simple.
The Qing family has an inherited swordsmanship that is famous for its speed, accuracy and ruthlessness. It can indeed penetrate the back of a person's head with one sword.
But this reason is indeed too far-fetched. It's just that the two families have always had a grudge. Before the Wen family even spoke, there was already news that the Wen family was blaming the Qing family. As time went by, it became clear that this rumor had noses and eyes, and it was hard to tell whether it was true or not. Fake.
Of course the government can't handle the case so casually, not to mention that the other party being accused is also a big family in Silk City, but they don't seem to be handling it properly at all. The people who came looked at it and left. It's been half a month and there is no news at all. .
It feels like someone killed someone and then spread the news to blame the Qing family in order to provoke conflict between the two families.
But then again, who would do this?
Just listening to Wen Peng's description, it is difficult to pinpoint the scope of the murderer. After all, the operation of stabbing the back of the head with a sword is not impossible to copy. Anyone who has some experience in using swords can do it.
The more I think about it, the more trouble it becomes, but Yang Yiyi seems not to be afraid of the trouble, and even says she wants to visit the room of the deceased...
She is really brave.
——
Qin Yan wants to be a thief, not a hero, and she definitely doesn’t like asking for trouble.
On the contrary, Yang Yiyi, I just want to be a hero, so when there is injustice, I will naturally take care of it.
Upon hearing that someone seemed to be deliberately provoking a dispute between the two families, Yang Yiyi, who originally felt a little troublesome, immediately said that the heroine will take care of this matter!
——That’s really easy to fool.
Wen Peng called the servant and asked the servant to lead the two of them to the deceased's room to check.
When I arrived at the place, I discovered that the living conditions in the accounting room were really good.
The Wen family's accountant lived in a separate small courtyard, and he was given two rooms. The small courtyard even had a pool, rockery and a quiet bamboo forest.
Since it may be an additional house, the Feng Shui is not good, and there is a sharp eaves diagonally opposite the house, so a small Bagua mirror is hung on the door frame to block evil spirits.
Among the two rooms, one of them was filled with clutter, and some unorganized books and the like could be seen stacked on the cabinets.
It is said that this accounting clerk is new. He may be busy with work and has not yet sorted out his personal belongings.
The other room is where you work and live, but the furnishings are relatively simple, including a wardrobe, a bookshelf, a bed, and a set of tables and chairs.
The Four Treasures of the Study and a pen holder were also placed on the table. A stack of unused thick rice paper remained untouched. Some blood stains were faintly visible on the edge of the table.
"My master has given orders that the two heroines can watch as they please. If you have any instructions, please call the younger ones at any time." "Have any outsiders come in here?"
"No, since the accident, only officials have come in to check, and nothing has been touched."
After Qin Yan asked this question, she turned around and saw Yang Yiyi looking at her with a look of help.
How could Yang Yiyi do any research? Her only impression of this room was that it was very clean and nothing else.
You have no idea what you promised just now!
Did you trick me!
However, Qin Yan felt a little relieved to be looked at by Yang Yiyi like this.
After all, Qin Yan was chased and beaten by Yang Yiyi three times, so it was inevitable to feel happy when she saw her defeated.
So she didn't bother to complain about Yang Yiyi, and walked to the table and looked at it carefully.
There was not much blood left on the table. You must know that stabbing the back of the head is not a cut of a finger. There are many blood vessels on the scalp, not to mention a lot of blood and brain matter in the brain.
There was only a faint trace of blood on the table, like a blurred pattern, and you wouldn't even notice it if you didn't look carefully.
He looked at the ground again, and there wasn't even a single blood spot left.
Qin Yan judged: "This man has excellent swordsmanship and uses a fast sword that is rare to see."
The blow pierced him and he pulled it out immediately. The blood was so fast that it stuck to the sword. The operation was so smooth that it may have happened in an instant. The deceased didn't even realize that he had been stabbed. He died instantly as soon as everything went black. .
Seeing this scene, it seems that it is not so far-fetched to suspect the Qing family. Anyone with this ability in the entire Silk City may really be the quick sword of the Qing family.
However, without seeing the body, Qin Yan could not tell whether it was a three-foot sword, a short sword, or a shorter weapon such as a dagger.
This difference is still very big. The length of the weapons is different, and the strength and skills are of course also different. If there are injury examination records of the two people, we can make a more accurate judgment.
"There was no murder weapon found in the house, right? Did the government say what caused the death?"
The servant shook his head:
"The government didn't say anything. They just asked Wu Zuo to take the corpse away for examination, and then let us take it back for burial."
The person had already been buried, so she went to dig the grave.
To be honest, Qin Yan wanted to be a snitch, not a tomb robber. She really didn't dare to do such a thing.
“Are all the books on the bookshelves account books?”
"No, that's the book Mr. Accountant brought himself."
Yang Yiyi's words reminded Qin Yan, and she asked:
"The accountant was settling accounts when he died. Has the account book been put away?"
"this……"
The servant was a little hesitant, after all, not everyone could see the account book.
"I just want to confirm, are there any blood or other stains on the ledger?"
"I've never heard of blood stains, but I heard from other accountants that the accounting was wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"I don't know the specifics, I just heard about it. How about the two heroines go with me and ask?"
Yang Yiyi nodded quickly and fiercely.
Although Li Chengqi could not speak casually in front of Qin Yan, the operation was almost the same as usual. The only difference was that Qin Yan made the plans and Yang Yiyi was responsible for the killings.
However, it is still at the stage where the truth is unknown, and Yang Yiyi can only be responsible for Gaga...
