The Delicate Lady Coroner

"Foster father, I'm going to the Han Bookstore." Bo Ruoyou said anxiously, and then looked at Father Fu, "Daddy, may I bother you to send a servant of the Hou Mansion to take my foster father home?"

Father Fu naturally nodded, and Cheng Yunzhi said: "But I have figured out the joints of the case."

Bo Ruoyou nodded, "I figured out something, and my daughter will have to go to the Yamen for a trip later--"

Cheng Yunzhi didn't ask much. Huo Qinghong looked at Bo Ruoyou curiously, but a little eagerly appeared in his eyes, "Where have you figured it out? What are you going to do in the library?"

Bo Ruoyou rushed to the library and was too lazy to talk to Huo Qinghong. Seeing that she was leaving, Huo Qinghong also stood up, "I also want to go and see—"

Father Fu was a little helpless, "what will the elder son do?"

Huo Qinghong said pitifully, "I haven't left the gate of the Hou Mansion for half a year."

This is the truth, Bo Ruoyou moved slightly when he heard the words, and said: "It's okay to go with the elder son, but I don't care about the elder son."

Huo Qinghong scratched his head, "Do I still want you?"

Bo Ruoyou didn't say much, and went straight to the outside of the mansion. Huo Qinghong ordered people to prepare horses. Seeing that he was coming, Father Fu quickly ordered the servants of the Hou Mansion to follow. .

Bo Ruoyou rode a carriage to the Hanshu Library, which was not far from Lanzhengfang. On the road, Bo Ruoyou was muttering something, as if he was thinking of something. When the carriage stopped in front of the library, Bo Ruoyou got out of the carriage and went in. Library.

She found the shopkeeper and only asked about the storybook named "Xunchai Ji". What the shopkeeper said was really the same as Feng's servant, and Bo Ruoyou hurriedly asked: "So many people come to buy this storybook these days?"

The shopkeeper smiled, "Naturally there are many. This is the latest story. There are also two restaurants who want to compose the law for the book and sing and act. The girl is here to buy the story."

Bo Ruoyou naturally shook his head, "The shopkeeper can remember who bought it before the 13th?"

The shopkeeper twisted his eyebrows for a moment, “After these days, I can’t remember, but not many people bought them in the first two days, but we don’t remember the appearance of the guests. Yes, I can't remember..."

Bo Ruoyou was a little disappointed, and Huo Qinghong looked at him, "What, did you think wrong?"

Bo Ruoyou shook his head and turned to leave the library and went straight to the Yamen. Huo Qinghong was at a loss for a while, but he hurriedly followed. When he arrived at the Yamen, he happened to meet Wu Xiang just coming back from outside.

Seeing Bo Ruoyou, Wu Xiang said with a distressed look that he had nothing to gain. Seeing Huo Qinghong followed, he couldn't help being very surprised, but Bo Ruoyou opened his mouth and said: "Catch your head, I know why Liu Yao seems to be dead. In the secret room—"

"You know?" Wu Xiang's eyes brightened first, but he quickly grasped the point, "How do you seem to be dead in a secret room?"

Bo Ruoyou said with a serious face: "Because this secret room was not set up by the murderer, but Liu Yao locked the door from inside, creating the illusion that the murderer murdered her in the secret room and then escaped."

Wu Xiang was taken aback. He had thought about many ingenuities, but in any case did not expect Bo Ruoyou to have such a simple reasoning, "This...she was seriously injured at the time, can she still close the door..."

Bo Ruoyou said: "She didn't get violently killed by contact with a pillar. The blood stains on the bed and the post-mortem were available. She was seriously injured and then lost too much blood and died. After the murderer committed the murder that day, seeing her bleeding uncontrollably, most of them felt terrified. Wanting to leave the house immediately, after he left, Liu Yao woke up, and then she closed the door."

"The blood stains behind the door panels are the best proof. We didn't figure out how there would be blood stains behind the door panels. If the murderer left behind, most people would hold the handle behind the door when they opened and closed the door. After not touching the door panel, the head catcher should remember that the blood stain behind the door is on my shoulder. I guess Liu Yao was dizzy and weak after closing the door. "

Wu Xiangben thought this inference was incredible, but Bo Ruoyou said that it seemed reasonable and reasonable. The theory of the secret room was indeed preconceived. Coupled with previous case handling experience, the first reaction was that the murderer deliberately arranged a secret room. As a result, they faked that the deceased committed suicide, but the nuns once again said that a lot of objects fell on the floor in the house, and it seemed that they had been disputed. If the murderer wanted to mislead them, how could he not clean up when setting up the secret room? What about the scene?

"There is some truth to what you said, because we thought about this matter too complicatedly."

Bo Ruoyou said: "In addition, Liu Yao may have closed the door for two reasons. One is that she is afraid of the murderer's return, and the other is that she wants to prevent the murderer from coming back to take the physical evidence he left behind. "

"Physical evidence?" Wu Xiang twisted his eyebrows.

"Head-catching, remember that there are many books of words on Liu Yao's book case?"

"Naturally remember, but we have read those books, and there is nothing unusual."

Bo Ruoyou shook his head, "The story on the storybook is indeed unusual, and there is no evidence of a few words, but the exception is the time when the storybook began to be sold on the market. There are so many storybooks on her storybook. The works are still quite new, but today I accidentally learned that one of the storybooks actually started to be sold half a month ago."

As soon as this remark came out, Wu Xiang immediately understood, "The textbook that started selling only half a month ago appeared in the nunnery, which means that someone bought it and gave it to her as soon as the sale started!"

He quickly recalled, "According to the confessions of the people before, no one in the Liu family mentioned that they had gone to see Liu Yao half a month ago, and the nuns said that there was no one in the sixth nunnery on the fifth and sixth day of the lunar new year, and the murderer must have gone on those two days. Go to the nunnery!"

Bo Ruo faintly nodded, "Yes, someone in the Liu family is lying. At the moment, we only need to find out who bought the script and who concealed the fact that he went to the temple to find the murderer!"

Wu Xiang grabbed his side knife, raised his thick eyebrows, and his eyes were bright. The dull and decadent moments ago were swept away, and he wished he could step into the Liu Mansion to take a person, "Which script is it?"

"It's called "Looking for a Hairpin". I have seen it in Liu Yao's cage a few times, and the Liu family will definitely find it now."

After Bo Ruoyou answered, Wu Xiang immediately instructed the ya chase to prepare the frame, and then asked her, "Are you going to go with me?"

Bo Ruoyou nodded immediately. At this moment, she looked back at Huo Qinghong as if remembering something, but saw that Huo Qinghong was also looking at her with bright eyes, and when she saw her, she immediately said, "Then I will go too."

Bo Ruoyou frowned, "What will the elder son go with? It is difficult for the elder son to go with the office."

Huo Qinghong was a little dissatisfied at first, but met Bo Ruoyou's gaze, and said deflated: "Then how am I waiting outside?"

Bo Ruoyou was a little helpless, looking at Wu Xiang, Wu Xiang quickly said: "If you don't enter the mansion, the Liu family won't feel anything, so the world's son is willing to follow it."

Bo Ruoyou sighed and looked up and down Huo Qinghong. He didn't see what Huo Qinghong was thinking for a while. Soon he was ready to go to Liu's house. On the way, Wu Xiang made some calculations and thought of Liu's house. The confession of the fourth son, "Do you remember that the fourth son of the Liu family said that on the sixth day of the sixth year, he went out of the city to go to Xiangguo Temple to offer incense, and was carried in because of illness on the way back."

Bo Ruoyou naturally remembered, Wu Xiang said again: "It was just that the two young men who followed him were interrogated that day. The two young men also said the same thing. They also said that there was a coachman as a testimony. Our people also went to Xiangguo Temple to interrogate. The Zhike monk in here still remembered him, saying that he left the monastery where he arrived at noon for two hours. According to the footsteps, it was dark when he returned to Beijing. Later, he felt a little uncomfortable on the road and arrived at the door of his house. Asked someone to lift a small sedan chair out and carry him in."

Bo Ruoyou thought about the location of Xiangguo Temple, "Two hours are enough to go back and forth from Xiangguo Temple to Shuiyue Temple..."

Wu Xiang said: "This one has also asked the monks in the temple. Among them, he will have a vegetarian meal in the temple. The monk who sent the vegetarian meal saw him kneeling before the Buddha statue and chanting."

Bo Ruoyou thoughtfully, "The testimony of the monk and the testimony of the servants, there will be more or less unbelievable places."

Wu Xiang nodded his head and expressed his approval. When the carriage arrived at Liu Mansion, Bo Ruoyou ordered Huo Qinghong to wait in the carriage, and then followed Wu Xiang into the gate of the Hou Mansion. Huo Qinghong lay on the windowside and looked at the gate of Liu Mansion. , She was dazed for a while, not knowing what she was thinking.

Liu Yan came to pick him up again in the Liu Mansion. When he heard that Wu Xiang was going to Liu Yao's house, Liu Yan immediately said, "Fortunately, if you come today, if it is one day later, we will take away the remains of the Seventh Sister."

Liu Yan led the way, and a few people went to this remote courtyard again, opened the door, and Bo Ruoyou glanced at the unmoved cage in the house. Although the cage did not move, she saw the stacked items in the box at a glance. Changed.

She stepped forward, "Has anyone been here in the past two days?"

Liu Yan was slightly surprised, "No, the keys are now in the hands of the steward. I opened the door to tell me. I didn't hear who entered the house."

Bo Ruoyou rummaged while listening to him. The last time she stayed in the house and read the booklet for a long time, she knew exactly where to put the books, but when she rummaged through the entire cage, even inside the house The book case was also searched, but the book "In Search of Hairpins" really disappeared. Seeing her look, Wu Xiang stepped forward and asked: "What's the matter? I can't find it anymore."

Bo Ruoyou nodded, "If you disappeared, the only thing that you missed was the book "In Search of Hairpins."

Wu Xiang immediately looked at Liu Yan with a deep gaze. Liu Yan felt weird when he heard it. He immediately ordered Xiaoyi to call the steward. Soon, the steward Liu of the House walked quickly, and Liu Yan shook the key in his hand. Where are they all stored? Can someone ask you for the key?"

The steward immediately said, "Second Young Master came to ask for the key once last night."

"What? Second brother came to ask for the key?" Liu Yan was very surprised.

The steward nodded, and said with some trepidation: "Second Young Master said that he wanted to come and see Seven Girls' relics."

Liu Yan looked at Wu Xiang hesitantly, and Wu Xiang twitched his lips, "Then you have to ask the second son to come over..."
