Chapter 48 48 Xiyue Town

Li Chan and Li Yuan of course resisted this question, "The person who was killed was my father, would I harm my own family?"

They protested to Captain Qian.

Captain Qian looked at Su Yan cautiously, and seeing that his expression did not change, he said with a sad face, "You two ladies, you don't know that most of these cases are committed by close relatives."

Although Li Chan was dissatisfied, since Captain Qian had spoken, she had no choice but to answer, "I have been in the mansion all along."

"The west wing is very close to the main room. Didn't Miss San hear any strange noises?"

Li Chan recalled for a moment and shook her head, "Maybe I didn't notice it."

Li Yuan also said: "I was in my room too, I didn't hear anything."

Xiangxiu's eyes flickered.

Su Yan carefully observed everyone's reactions. Seeing Xiang Xiu like this, he asked, "But is there any problem?"

"I……"

Li Chan got angry when she heard her hesitating, "Just say whatever you want to say. Do you think I can eat you?"

Xiangxiu lowered her head and whispered, "It's not the Third Miss, it's the Second Miss."

Li Chan said, "It's all the same. Don't worry. I promise that no one in the Li family will embarrass you."

Li Yuan: “…”

Why did you agree to it for her?

Xiangxiu secretly looked at Li Yuan and found that Li Yuan was looking at her. She lowered her head in panic and whispered, "Actually, I went to the second young lady's room last night. The second young lady didn't have dinner. I was worried about the second young lady, so I went to look for her, but she wasn't there."

Li Yuan was startled, his face was quite cold, "I have always been here."

Xiangxiu said blankly: "But I knocked on the door and no one answered."

Li Yuan said coldly: "Maybe I went to bed early and didn't hear it. Didn't you see it when I left this morning?"

Xiangxiu didn't know what to say.

Although Su Yan could tell that Li Yuan was lying, she was unwilling to tell the truth and he couldn't force her, so he stopped pestering her.

As for Xiangxiu and the other two, they said they had always been together.

Su Yan was thinking about going to see the body and didn't worry about it anymore.

Captain Qian was already tired, and discussed with Su Yan: "Miss Su, I have other official duties. How about I leave a few constables for you? If you have anything, you can tell them, or you can come to the yamen to find me. How about that?"

Without Captain Qian around, Su Yan could do things more conveniently. She nodded happily, "Captain Qian, please do as you wish."

Captain Qian selected a few detectives and asked them to stay with Lin Bo.

Lin Bo reminded with a straight face, "I have to do the autopsy. I can't believe a little girl like you can do such a thing."

Su Yan subconsciously wanted to say a few perfunctory soft words, and the thoughts in his mind were unconsciously revealed - "If you look down on women, you will never get a wife in the future."

Lin Bo: "..., I never thought about getting married!"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the detectives looked at Lin Bo.

The sun hasn't even set yet, and he's already openly announcing that he won't get married. I'm afraid it means... he can't wait to get married?

The detectives smiled as if they understood me.

Lin Bo: “???”

Being stared at by a group of people, Lin Bo didn't dare to say anything, but he still didn't know why these people were smiling at him.

Su Yan walked towards the main room first. Lin Bo took the opportunity to grab a constable and asked, "What were you laughing at just now?"

The constable was very secretive. "Don't worry, I never thought of mocking you. Getting married is really not easy."

Lin Bo: “???”

The constable consoled him, "I know you want to get married. When I was your age, I almost went crazy thinking about it. Don't worry, I will definitely find a matchmaker to introduce you to someone else!"

Lin Bo must be crazy about getting married, otherwise how could he shout out such a sentence for no reason?

Thinking of this, the constable felt a little sorry for him.

He is almost twenty years old and still hasn't married or had children. It's really a bit late and pitiful.

Lin Bo: “…”

Why are you all pitying him?!

Su Yan has already walked into the main room.

The incident happened suddenly and she didn't have time to check carefully. Now when she came in, she felt a cold air moving in the room.

Li Ji's body had been put down, and the rest of the body remained as it was.

Su Yan checked the door first, "There is no sign of forced damage to the door."

Then, she walked to the body and was about to squat, but Lin Bo ran over first and said, "I'll do it."

Su Yan looked over helplessly, "Together?"

"I am the coroner of Xiyue Town. Captain Qian believes you, but I don't. What can a little girl like you see?"

Su Yan said: "He died of suffocation."

"Nonsense, the man was hanging from the beam, you saw it with your own eyes. If you have the guts, tell me more and I will believe you."

Su Yan didn't mind saying more, but Lin Bo's tone made her unhappy.

How did it become a tone of "testing her"?

Su Yan said seriously, "I am indeed a coroner. Captain Qian also agreed to let me do the autopsy. I know you are relieved. I can also do the autopsy with you. If there is anything wrong with the autopsy process, you can point it out. Everyone around is your people. Why do I need to prove it to you again?"

After she finished speaking, she squatted beside the body again to check.

Lin Bo: “…”

Captain Qian did say that he wanted Su Yan to participate in the case, and even left the constables under her command. Although Lin Bo didn't know why Captain Qian obeyed a little girl, this was a fact.

Lin Bo was in the wrong. Looking at the other detectives, they were all trying to hold back their laughter and were obviously happy to see him being humiliated.

What's more, he secretly pulled Lin Bo and said, "In fact, Miss Su is very pretty, and you are both coroners, so you can chat with each other."

After saying this, the constable glanced at Yun Xing standing not far away and shuddered.

Although the detectives only know some simple kung fu, they can tell the strength of their opponents.

They would rather die than provoke people like Yun Xing. If they fall into his hands, they will most likely be in a situation where they can neither live nor die.

The constable laughed, "Forget it, you are not worthy of her."

Lin Bo: “…”

He deliberately put on a stern face and waited to watch Su Yan perform the autopsy.

We will soon find out whether she has real ability.

After Su Yan finished the inspection, he slowly said, "He was strangled to death by the murderer with a thin rope, and then hung on the beam by the murderer after he died."

A constable said: "Li Ji is a man. If it was a woman who committed the crime, I'm afraid it would be impossible to hang him after his death."

In the entire Li residence, Mu Mu was the only man.

"He must have been hanged after his death," Su Yan pointed at the marks on Li Ji's neck and said, "You can clearly see a groove on Li Ji's neck..."

The constable came closer and asked, "It looks like it was strangled by two ropes?"

"You could say that one of them I call the Hanging Ditch and the other the Le Ditch."

"What's the difference?"

"One is hanging, the other is strangulation. Simply put, the first is caused by hanging, and the second is strangulation. The two grooves are obviously different. The groove of strangulation is horizontal and circular, while the groove of hanging has a visible pattern, which is easy to distinguish. I am very sure that the murderer strangled Li Ji first and then hung him up."

Su Yan's explanation was simple and easy to understand. Unlike Lin Bo, he was too lazy to respond when the detectives asked him a few more questions. He was just busy filling out the autopsy form.

The constable deliberately angered Lin Bo and praised him, "Miss Su is much better than Lin Bo!"

Lin Bo: “…”

He looked at Su Yan with a complicated expression.

Although he could distinguish these traces, he didn't expect that Su Yan was really a coroner.

Maybe he is a coroner with some skills.
