All the people in the hospital acted like a meal. Lingxiang is not cheap any more. She has already vowed not to marry and serve his wife all her life. Now when something happens, the first reaction is that Ling Xiang died.
As soon as Dugu's heart was tight, he immediately returned with the maid. His face was tight, his lips were slightly pursed, and he asked in a deep voice, "how is Lingxiang now?"
"I cut my wrists, and the room was full of blood. When I came, I had already invited a doctor, but I felt that it was a little bit hanging." The maid's face was pale, but the train of thought was still very clear, and his words were in order.
Dugu family didn't ask any more questions, but he quickened his pace and walked into the courtyard where Mrs. Xiao lived.
Mrs. Xiao's body is still on the bed of the original bedroom before it can be buried, and Lingxiang's room is next door to Mrs. Xiao's bedroom. However, when Mrs. Xiao was alive, Ling Xiang built a small bed in Mrs. Xiao's bedroom and stayed in the room, convenient to serve at any time.
Ran Yan also followed a group of Dugu family members into Lingxiang's house. Just entering the room, there is a strong smell of blood. Many women cover their mouths and noses with sleeves.
In the room, the Duke of song had already come. Several young men stood at the curtain of the inner room and stopped most of the people outside. The specific situation inside could not be seen from outside.
Ran Yan followed Dugu, but he was not stopped.
In the house, Lingxiang was lying on the couch neatly, holding a bloody knife in his right hand, a neat wrist cut wound on his left wrist, and blood was sprayed everywhere on the wall of the tent in the house, but the splashing position was relatively low, and only a small amount of blood was stained on Lingxiang's white dress.
There was a pool of blood on the ground.
For more than a month, ran Yan stayed by his wife's side every day, but he didn't say much to Ling Xiang, so he was not very familiar. Even so, ran Yan was sad when he saw the familiar person turn into a corpse.
Xiao Song, aware of her emotional change, leaned over and secretly held her hand. Ran Yan is slightly surprised, struggling twice, but his hand is still in his hand.
There are too many people in the room. Ran Yan is afraid that his movements will be too big to be noticed, so he has to let him hold it quietly. Her hands were wrapped in warm palms, and the uneasiness in her heart gradually calmed down. Instead, it was a very down-to-earth feeling.
At first glance, this scene has almost no flaws. If it is not a professional in this field, he would surely think that this is Lingxiang's loyal suicide.
However, the Duke of song, who had experienced many vicissitudes of life, felt that there was something wrong with the scene, even though they could not see any flaws in the scene. The brothers are discussing whether to inform the government.
After a few brief remarks, the result has already been achieved. The Duke of the state of song turned his head and said with a face, "Yue, it's up to you. Check it out."
The Xiao family is a well-known family. If it is really a murder, it will be bad for reputation. But there is no guarantee that Ling Xiang's death will be covered up. The best way is: no matter how Lingxiang died, the public would unanimously declare that he was martyred to the Lord, and gave high funeral rites to confuse the public. He investigated the matter in private and found out the murderer to the government, Use the relationship in the family to block the news.
Xiao Song didn't want to take the job, but the whole house of people could not help him.
He released ran Yan's hand and let everyone out of the house, leaving only a few witnesses and a few maids beside his wife. He told Bai Yi to call 30 guards to come over and guard the lady's yard.
Then Xiao Song began to investigate the scene of the crime. Ran Yan understands his habits. He likes to investigate the scene in person, rather than wait for his subordinates to report the search results. The guards are all rude people who only look at the big ones, and some subtle clues can easily be ignored.
"Search Lingxiang's room and Mrs. Tai's room to see if anything is missing." Xiao Song looked at the two rooms carefully, and then ordered the four maids beside Mrs. Xiao to go into the room to check.
The Duke of song and others went out of the house and sat down on the waterside pavilion in the courtyard, deliberating on the funeral while waiting for the results of Xiao Song's initial search. And the women all went back to the little east house.
Ran Yan can't help but gather together when he sees the body, especially when he has not been breathing for a long time. Many small clues on the body are clearly visible at this time.
After a short time, Liu Qingsong also rushed to come, together with ran Yan, to check the body of Ling Xiang.
"How about it?" Xiao Song saw ran Yan lift the curtain out, immediately asked.
While pulling the gloves down, ran Yan sat down on the mat beside him. "The wound on the wrist is smooth. According to the wound, it is really caused by the short knife in her right hand, but The wounds caused by the dead themselves and others are different in strength and direction. The wound on Lingxiang's wrist is very deep, the inside is big and the outside is small, but Lingxiang's posture of holding the knife is clearly not a backhand knife. "
Generally speaking, one cuts his wrist with a knife in his forehand, and the wound is big outside and small in the inside, while others cause the opposite.
However, some people like to hold the knife with the backhand and cut from the inside to the outside. For example, some people who are used to using double knives.
"What's more, if it's suicide, most of them will have" exploratory wounds. ". People will have a sense of fear when they attack themselves. It has nothing to do with whether they have the will to die or not. This is a natural reflection of the human body. When the first knife goes down, it will probably not be a very deep wound. If you want to die, you will definitely have to mend one or two more. " Ran Yan continued to see that Xiao Song had no doubt, so he continued, "the wound on Lingxiang's wrist is only one knife, and the bone can be seen deeply. Unless it is a person who has received special training, ordinary people can't cut such a deep wound on their own body so neatly."No matter how brave you are and how determined you are to die, ordinary people will have a sense of fear subconsciously when they attack themselves. They think that the attack is very heavy, but in fact, when the knife goes down, it is absolutely not as powerful as others.
"The most important thing is that Ling Xiang's eye has bleeding spots under the conjunctiva. I suspect she was smothered to death before cutting off the wrist artery." Ran Yan finally summed up his own views.
When a person just suffocates, the heart stops suddenly, but the blood flow of the whole body will not stop immediately. When the murderer cuts open the arteries of the dead, there will also be splashing, but the force is far weaker than that of living. The artery on Ling Xiang's wrist was cut off together. If she had been alive at that time, the blood spots sprayed would have been more and wider than now.
Now it is basically certain that Ling Xiang was murdered.
After a search there, liang'er came in and reported, "Jiulang, the remains that Mrs. Tai said to give to my aunt are missing."
In addition to Ling Xiang, the most important thing Mrs. Tai relies on is liang'er, so she also knows some of the things she places.
"Relics? What kind of things? " Xiao Song asked.
Ran Yan has not had the opportunity to talk about it with him, so he took advantage of this moment to tell his wife's account carefully.
Who would steal Mrs. Tai's remains? Why steal that thing? (to be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to start( qidian.com )Your support is my biggest motivation to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets. )
