Xiao Cunyu spoke seriously and raised his hand. Zhule quickly opened the package. In an instant, the faint stench that had just come out spread immediately and rushed into everyone's mouths and noses.
The yamen runners subconsciously covered their noses tightly, and even Lord Zong couldn't help it.
Xiao Cunyu's eyes were too sincere, and it would be unacceptable for Lord Zong not to go over and take a look at the corpse. He had no choice but to bite the bullet, move a little closer, and take a quick glance.
Just one glance and Lord Zong almost vomited.
"Call the coroner over!" Lord Zong shouted hurriedly.
This case is probably not a simple one. The body has been broken into pieces like this. It looks really... shocking.
If he didn't know that Xiao Qi was not the kind of person who would kill or chop off corpses, he would probably have arrested the master and servant immediately.
"Xiao Qillang, where did you dig out this corpse?" Lord Zong said with a serious face.
"A mass grave is a good place to kill people and bury the bodies." Xiao Cunyu said.
Master Zong was a little uneasy. "You just said that she was murdered... Who was it? Do you have any evidence?"
"The murderer is her husband, named..." Xiao Cunyu hesitated for a moment, and at this time the ghost hurriedly made up for her. After listening to her, Xiao Cunyu continued, "Li Niang's husband Qiu Yun, and his accomplices were his mother and sister. The murder weapon was a garlic mortar. Qiu Yun first smashed Li Niang to death, then dismembered her body. He also scraped off Li Niang's flesh, boiled it into broth, cut it into slices, and sold it to customers who went to the mutton restaurant."
As soon as Xiao Cunyu finished speaking, everyone's faces turned pale.
What is a major case? It's a major case if it involves a large number of people, if it involves powerful people, and if it's a case of vile interest... it's even more of a major case!
"Xiao Qillang, this is not a place where you can joke..." Lord Zong panicked.
"Master Zong, have I ever joked with you? I know some tricks with magic puppets. If the victim and I are destined to be together, I can calculate her life and seek justice for her. Qian Li Niang's husband is extremely vicious. After killing and dismembering the body, he asked her mother and sister to cooperate and create the illusion that Li Niang eloped with someone, making her family despised by others. She felt guilty and compensated him. If you don't believe me, just check it out." Xiao Cunyu was still very serious when he was seeking justice for the ghost.
Lord Zong immediately sent people to investigate Qian Li Niang and capture her relatives.
The coroner stepped forward and verified it again, and his final statement was exactly the same as Xiao Cunyu's.
After death, the body was dismembered and the bones were chopped into several pieces. Based on the texture of the tiny bit of soil nearby, the coroner was able to calculate that Li Niang had died about seven or eight days ago.
It will take some time to arrest the person, so we naturally cannot just keep the court open and wait.
Lord Zong then had the corpse carried away and asked Xiao Cunyu to go to the back to rest for a while.
Later on, Xiao Cunyu became even more impolite. He ate every snack that Lord Zong had sent over, and did not forget Tieyi and Zhule, letting them fill their stomachs.
But Zhule... couldn't eat it.
"Why don't you eat? This sesame snack is so delicious." Xiao Cunyu saw Zhule standing there and urged him to eat.
Zhule was speechless. "Master, I've been picking worms at the mass grave for a long time...looking at these sesame seeds...I can't swallow them."
Xiao Cunyu understood.
But she still enjoyed the meal.
Seeing his heartless look, Master Zong felt that this child might be stupid. It was a pity that his son always praised Xiao Qi for being smart every time he came home, but wasn't he ranked last?
