Chapter 4949 Xiyue Town
Lin Bo's attitude improved. "Can you see anything else?"
Su Yan snorted and ignored him.
Lin Bo: "..., why are you so petty?"
Su Yan was blunt, "You are ugly, I don't want to be generous. Change to someone prettier, and I'll be generous."
Su Yan looked towards Yun Xing.
Lin Bo was shocked. "He doesn't even dare to show his whole face! If you have the guts, make him take off his mask and compete again!"
Yun Xing glanced over with a cold gaze.
Lin Bo: "..., brother, I also think you are the best looking."
The detectives' eyes were rolling to the sky.
The rest of the examination was completely led by Su Yan. "There are two wounds on Li Ji's fingers. There are white fragments on the wounds. It should be that he broke the porcelain cup and was cut by the porcelain fragments."
Su Yan picked up the broken white porcelain cup.
Lin Bo recalled: "Xiangxiu said that after the bride was lost last night, Li Ji came home furious and smashed the porcelain cup."
Su Yan asked: "How was the matter of the bride being replaced with a rotten corpse finally handled?"
After she fell into the water, she went back to look for the sedan chair, but there was no one near the bridge.
Lin Bo said, "Mu Tou sent the sedan bearer away. Li Ji is very angry. The sedan should be in the mansion. Let's go and take the rotten corpse away."
"Were you here last night?"
"We have to get rid of the rotten corpse."
Li Ji's situation has been basically understood. The bride turned into a rotten corpse last night. Li Ji was furious when he returned home. At about 10 p.m., Li Ji was killed.
He has a strange personality and was completely humiliated by what happened last night, so Xiangxiu and the others didn't dare to disturb him.
It was not until Su Yan and Yun Xing came to look for Pei Jian that Xiang Xiu saw that Li Ji had not left the house for a long time and went to check, where she found Li Ji's body.
Apart from his fingers, there were no other wounds on Li Ji's body.
Su Yan had some guesses in his mind, and when he heard Lin Bo's words, he thought, "Where is the rotten corpse?"
"The body was buried a few days ago. I have contacted the deceased's relatives and asked them to take it back and rebury it."
Su Yan looked at Lin Bai and asked, "How many coroners are there in the government office?"
Hearing this, Lin Bo's thick eyebrows twisted slightly. He looked calm and said, "It's just me."
Su Yan stared at him closely. "A few days ago, Li Ji's bride was also replaced with a rotten corpse. These corpses were buried recently. Was it a natural death or murder?"
Lin Bo: "...both died accidentally, and the government went to collect their bodies."
"Where did you find the bride?"
"Li Ji gave the other party a sum of money, and then they forced their daughter to marry Li Ji."
"Have you found the bride?"
“…”
Lin Bo said nothing.
Su Yan changed his previous arrogance and seemed to flatter Lin Bo. "You are the only coroner in Xiyue Town, and the person who knows the most about corpses in the whole town. You can't tell me that the bride has turned into a rotten corpse? You know this is impossible."
The detectives craned their heads to watch the fun.
Just now Su Yan was targeting Lin Bo, but now he is praising him?
This matter is not their business. They are only responsible for watching the fun. Anyway, Su Yan is a lively and cheerful girl, she would never beat Lin Bo to death.
They didn't notice that Lin Bo's expression was completely different from before.
Lin Bo raised his eyelids and said coldly: "I don't know, the bride is missing."
Su Yan looked at Lin Bo's reaction and smiled with his eyes narrowed.
Lin Bo's heartbeat suddenly quickened.
Su Yan stopped questioning him. She turned to the detective and said, "Please send the body to the morgue. I will perform an autopsy if necessary. There is one more thing I would like you to investigate."
The constable said, "Miss Su, just speak frankly."
These people have been following Captain Qian for a long time, but Captain Qian is just taking things easy and isn't very serious about handling cases.
Sometimes, even when they could see the suspicious points, Captain Qian would turn a blind eye. As long as the county magistrate did not give any orders, Captain Qian would push the issue away.
It is easy to work for Captain Qian, but after a long time, it is inevitable to feel guilty.
Su Yan's style of doing things is completely different from Captain Qian's, and surprisingly, it is quite to their liking. They even work more attentively than usual.
Su Yan walked between them and whispered a few words, but Lin Bo couldn't hear clearly.
His expression was gloomy and unclear. Although he couldn't hear Su Yan's words clearly, he could see Yun Xing looking at him.
Lin Bo turned around and didn't look at them.
Only after the body was moved away did Su Yan begin to observe the main room.
There were no signs of fighting in the main room either. Except for the white porcelain cup that was broken by Li Ji, everything else was normal.
Li Ji had evil intentions. There were a few dusty scriptures on his bookshelf, and more miscellaneous talks and storybooks.
There are even a few books that specifically talk about sex.
Su Yan opened one of the books and became more and more... interested the more he read.
She watched with great interest.
The ancients had a really good writing style. Although it wasn't straightforward, it was always just right. If she had the chance, she would definitely...
The scroll was taken away.
Su Yan was still unsatisfied, and looked over with dissatisfaction, meeting Yun Xing's gaze.
Su Yan: "..., what are you doing?"
Yun Xing glanced at the scroll and asked, "What do you think of this thing?"
Su Yan is very tough, "People need to keep learning to make progress!"
Yun Xing looked at her expressionlessly.
Su Yan: "..., I want to find evidence in it, find evidence."
She lowered her head guiltily, but she didn't expect that the moment she lowered her head, her true feelings came out - "It's human nature for men and women to have affairs. What if I can really keep ten male lovers in the future... Yun Xing really doesn't understand romance."
Yun Xing decided to burn all the books.
After looking at the main room, Su Yan concluded, "There is really nothing else in Li Ji's mind except women."
It can be said that he has nothing in his head and relies entirely on his wife.
Yun Xing put the scriptures back on the bookshelf and said in a steady voice, "Is his murder related to his marriage?"
Su Yan moved closer to Yun Xing and looked up at him curiously, "Are you interested in murder cases?"
Yun Xing lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes trembled, and he turned around quickly, "Just asking."
"It's not a bad thing to be interested..." Su Yan wanted to put her arm around Yun Xing's shoulder, but he was a little tall and uncomfortable. She forced Yun Xing to squat a little, and said contentedly, "The rotting corpse is indeed unusual, but I think it may have nothing to do with Li Ji's death."
Although Yun Xing was half squatting, his body was very steady. He asked, "Isn't it possible that someone was playing tricks on him, deliberately disrupting the marriage, and blaming the ghosts and gods for Li Ji's death?"
"If the two brides returned to their parents' home, perhaps the murderer was just trying to scare Li Ji, but now the two brides are missing. The most direct consequence of the bride-for-corpse swap is that the brides disappear and the marriage cannot be held. Similarly, killing Li Ji can also lead to the same result. If he wants to steal the brides and kill Li Ji, isn't the murderer repeating the same thing?"
"Is it possible that the murderer killed the two brides as well?"
"So far, the government office has not seen the bodies of the brides. And Lin Bo just said that the two brides were forced to marry because their families were poor and their parents accepted a large sum of money from Li Ji. They are probably happy not to get married."
Su Yan gave Lin Bo a bright smile, "Mr. Lin, am I right?"
