Travel to ancient times to be a fast catcher

Chapter 108

"Why did you leave the dossier here? Haven't you looked for it since I left?" Chu Xiaoyun asked.

Clerk Zeng explained in embarrassment: "These are expired files and official documents that need to be destroyed. Because the new master has not yet taken office, they are temporarily piled up here. I don't know how these files are mixed in. It should be No way... I flipped through it in the morning, but I didn't find it..."

Chu Xiaoyun understood the reason for the backlog of documents to be destroyed. The original boss, Bo, was implicated in the case of the Wang family last time because of his faction with the county magistrate, and has now been sent to prison. The officials appointed by the imperial court are different from the small officials and servants that the localities can recruit independently. Therefore, there are still many vacancies in the Hejing County Yamen, including the post of Bo, who is the signatory.

"This is too careless." Chu Xiaoyun said, "Hurry up and see if there are any other dossiers mixed in here." "Hurry up and look for it."

Zeng Shuli hurriedly said to the new junior official.

Chen Tong hurriedly looked through the backlog of documents to be destroyed. Seeing this, Chu Xiaoyun and Yu He hurried forward to help. After a few people poked around, they actually found another document that was still within the deadline.

Clerk Zeng held the documents he had dug out and smiled apologetically to Chu Xiaoyun: "Chu Boss, Deputy Yu, fortunately the things have been found, I hope this matter will be convenient for today..." Chen Tong

also Stand aside and make an apologetic smile.

I have to forgive others, and forgive others, Chu Xiaoyun didn't want to offend anyone, and he didn't want to take matters into his own hands, so he just said: "No one is at fault. We are here to read the files, and we borrowed them first, so we need to trouble the clerk Zeng to register and sign Let it go."

"Oh, okay." Seeing that Chu Xiaoyun wanted to pretend that he didn't know anything, Shuli Zeng naturally couldn't ask for it, and hurriedly agreed.

Coming out of the signing office, Yu He asked, "Boss, what's your plan next?"

Chu Xiaoyun looked at the dossier in his hand: "If I don't find the dossier, I plan to go to Baishui Village to investigate the situation of the deceased, as well as some situations in the village back then." Chu Xiaoyun raised the dossier in his hand

. Dossier: "But now that the dossier is found, I want to see what is recorded in the dossier first. But Baishui Village needs to understand the situation without delay..."

Yu He thought for a while: "If not, let's split up. You are reading the file in the arresting room, I will go to Baishui Village to investigate the situation, and we will collect the news later. If I haven't come back after the release, I will communicate with you tomorrow, what do you think?" Chu Xiaoyun thinks this is a good idea, Yu

He As soon as he came back, he got twice the result with half the effort. The two of them are really great partners.

"Okay, then be careful on the road, and pay more attention to safety when inquiring in Baishui Village. This file has been recovered, but a phalanx of the dead bone parked in Baishui Village disappeared last night. The guard in charge None of the villagers found anything abnormal, so this case may not be that simple. Now the other party is in the dark, and we are in the open, so you must pay attention to safety." Chu Xiaoyun reminded.

"Head...Okay, I see. Thank you for your concern, I will pay attention."

The two split up after finishing their work. Yu He went to Baishui Village to investigate the situation, and Chu Xiaoyun returned to the house to check the files.

It is recorded in the file that seventeen years ago, on the eighteenth day of the autumn month, villagers from Baishui Village came to report to the officials, saying that a villager who had fled the country and lived in the village died unexpectedly, and asked the government to make the decision. The yamen sent people to investigate and learned that the deceased had fallen in his own house, and his friends found him dead when they visited. Because the deceased was poisoned and bleeding from seven orifices, and the death time was a bit long, erythema and festering appeared on his body. Friends suspected that he died of poisoning, so they made a big fuss in the village, begging for an explanation, and threatened to report to the government. In order to get rid of the suspicion, the villagers of Baishui Village took the initiative to report to the officials.

During the autopsy, the magistrate sent by the county government found that the nails of the deceased were black and black, the seven orifices were bleeding, and the face had been corroded by poison. In addition, when the villagers reported to the officials, it had been about three days since the death of the deceased, and the body had already begun to rot. Wu used the silver needle to pierce the throat of the deceased, and when it was pulled out, the silver needle turned black, so it was determined that the deceased died of poisoning.

Whether the deceased committed suicide by taking poison or was poisoned to death, when the county government investigated the relevant situation of the deceased, they learned that the deceased made a living by collecting herbs, and usually sold the collected herbs to a fixed pharmacy. During the investigation, the arresting room also arrested the shopkeeper of the pharmacy. Later, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy fell off a cliff and died during the arrest process.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy was only sent for questioning, but died unexpectedly because of this. The relatives of the shopkeeper went to the county government to appeal for grievances. Then it was determined that the deceased was bleeding from the mouth and nose, and the nails were gray, and based on the food placed on the dining table at home that day, it was believed that the deceased was poisoned by accidental ingestion. The two conclusions made it difficult for the county magistrate to make a decision. In order to find out the truth, the county magistrate ordered a morgue to investigate the truth. After seven days, the body of the deceased did not turn black, and the deceased was not buried until the tenth day.

On the day of burial, the body of the deceased was only yellow, not black. Therefore, in the end, the county government came to the conclusion that the deceased did not die of poisoning, but a poisoning incident caused by eating similar food by mistake. The case was finally determined to be death by accidental ingestion.

Looking at the records in this file, Chu Xiaoyun felt that it was incredible. How did a corpse that had been confirmed as poisoned by Wu become a case of accidental ingestion? The difference in judgment before and after this operation is too great. In the modern society of the previous life, it would be a major forensic accident, and there should be corresponding restrictions in ancient society.

Chu Xiaoyun couldn't wait to find out who made this inconsistent judgment, and many things should become clear when he is found. Chu Xiaoyun turned to the last page, and a shocking thing happened. The last page of the dossier signed by the judge, investigator, and verifier was torn away!

Finally, the history of this case is available, but the list of people who handled this case is gone! That is to say, the witness line is broken.

Chu Xiaoyun couldn't help but punched the case table. This case was too fucked up. First, the file could not be found, and then the deceased's phalanx was lost. Now the file was found, but the important link was gone.

"Husband, what's the matter?" Su Wen who was startled by Chu Xiaoyun stopped what he was doing and looked up.

It was only then that Chu Xiaoyun remembered that there was his little husband who was pregnant with Liujia in the small room. He calmed down instantly in his excitement, and hurried over to pat Su Wen on the back: "Did it scare you?" Su Wen

touched Stomach touching: "I was taken aback by you. But I'm okay, the little guy kicked me just now, I guess I was frightened by you."

Chu Xiaoyun patted Su Wen's stomach in fear, and kept stilling. The little fetus in the belly apologized: "Baby, I was wrong about my father just now and scared you. I can only promise you that I will not lose my temper in the future." Hearing Chu Xiaoyun's

solemn promise, Su Wen couldn't help laughing up. He pushed Chu Xiaoyun: "He doesn't understand either."

Chu Xiaoyun said solemnly: "He must know my attitude."

Su Wen looked at the desk: "Touched by the case again?"

"It's a little bit. "Chu Xiaoyun opened the dossier and showed it to Su Wen, "The last page recording the person who handled this case was torn off."

Su Wen looked at the remaining traces after being torn off: "Why would someone tear up this page?" Page, could it be that someone doesn't want people to know who handled this case?"

"Wenwen is right. From this point of view, there may have been problems when this case was handled." Chu Xiaoyun said, "Originally I plan to find out about the situation from the policeman and foreman who handled the case, but now this way is blocked." "

Then what do you plan to do next, husband?" Su Wen asked.

"For now, we can only wait for Yu He to come back and find out about the situation in Baishui Village. The two of us will first summarize the situation we have, and then make plans based on the final situation." Chu Xiaoyun said, "If Yu He If there is no progress in the investigation in Baishui Village, then an autopsy should be considered." "

Husband, do you think that the two cases may involve the same person?" Su Wen asked.

After Su Wen's question, Chu Xiaoyun now has to seriously consider the relationship between the dead bones washed down by the landslide and the owner of the house where the corpse is now buried.

The villagers all said that the dead bones could not be the owner of the house, because the owner's was not buried there, and the tomb is still there. But why is it such a coincidence that the two died at the same time, one was confirmed to be poisoned, and the other was also verified to have been poisoned? In the end, what made Wu Zuo change his conclusion? Which of the two conclusions is true?

"This has not been confirmed, and no conclusion can be drawn yet. However, there are no important clues. If the investigation does not progress, this is the only way out. After all, this file also records that the deceased in the accidental eating case was also verified at the beginning. He died of poisoning."

Su Wen nodded in understanding.

Afterwards, the two were busy with each other. Chu Xiaoyun waited until the time to release the government office, and Yu He hadn't returned to the county government office yet, looking at Su Wen who was still helping him sort out the official documents due to his mobility problems.

Su Wen has been working overtime with him recently. He feels that he owes too much to his little husband, so let's not wait today, go home first, and let Su Wen have a good rest. After all, it's okay to take a short break in the small room, it's not a place to live. Summarizing the news and discussing the next move can only be left tomorrow.
