The first work of the imperial prison

Beizhen Fusi.

Ye Baiting turned over and got off the horse at the gate, refused Qiu Yiqing to send him off again, and ran into the yard without looking back.

Xuan Guang wanted to rush in, but his master reined in him: "Don't go."

The black horse's neck hurt from being strangled, and the whites of his eyes almost turned out. He shook his head and snorted at his master, very dissatisfied.

Qiu Yiqing watched Ye Baiting's figure disappear into the yard, and stayed silent for a long time before lowering his eyes slowly, and rubbing Xuanguang's big head comfortingly: "Work obediently, and wait until everything is over... When you are beautiful."

I don't know whether he was talking to the horse or himself.

... As we all know, no matter how close a horse is raised, he can't understand people's words.

Ye Baiting ran all the way into the backyard, her heart was beating so fast, she reached out and touched her face, okay, not only the ears, but also the face was hot!Why did he have a brain twitch just now, and was molested by the dog man!Obviously, even if you make a mistake, you can still fight back, and then push back, how could you forget it!

The two armies did not perform well before the battle, and the first game was very disappointing.

But what can be done?The best opportunity has been missed, so I can only pretend that nothing happened, and wait for the next time to come back!Call the dog man to see his skills!Right now, work is still important...

He washed his face with well water, changed his clothes, and went to Wu Zuofang.

The morgue was ready, and the bodies of the two deceased had been carried back to Beizhen Fusi. Ye Baiting changed into a smock and gloves, and began to conduct a more detailed autopsy, especially the dancer Yu Linglong.

The first step is to examine the appearance traces carefully.

The make-up on the face of the deceased was gorgeous, and it looked like the heavy makeup needed for performances. The powder was slightly thicker, and the color of the cream used on the cheeks and lips was also very thick. She must have cried, and there were tears in her eyes. Looking sideways, her cheeks...

Ye Baiting gently wiped the area near her chin with her fingertips, sure enough, there were very light bruises, she was probably slapped in the face.

Her lip balm is also a little flowery, the edges are blurred, and there are rubbing marks. It doesn't look like it was blurred during the kissing process, but rather... Ye Baiting gently pinched the deceased's chin, and skillfully opened her mouth. Blood was found between the teeth.

He carefully observed the blood, and even used a mirror to enhance the brightness, and checked with brighter light. There was no scar on the girl's mouth, her tongue was fine, her mouth was fine, and her throat was clean. So where did the blood come from?

There is only one explanation - she bit someone, so hard that the blood came out from the bite!

Therefore, among those involved in the case, the existence of wounds is very subtle...

Ye Baiting wrote down the word 'wound' on one side of the post-mortem grid, and reminded himself that he would tell Shen Jiang to pay special attention to this point during the investigation and visit.

The deceased was wearing a dance skirt, which was two-piece. The upper body fit slightly tight, the skirt was wide and elegant, and the waist was looming in the middle. You can imagine how beautiful she was when she was singing and dancing, but now, the looming waist A lot of bruises were pinched out, and the man's fingerprints were broad and obvious, reflecting the jade-colored skin, looking dirty and violent.

The upper body of this kind of clothes looks tight, but it is easy to be pushed up, and the skirt is especially easy to lift up casually, which cannot protect oneself well.

Ye Baiting has experienced the scars on her fingers before, but now he observes more on other parts, such as the arm wrapped under the slightly tight sleeve.Those small scars similar to coarse gravel, or scratches on the cover, are also found on the forearm, but more and heavier are bruises, and they are all distributed on the outside of the arm——

This is the resistance injury that occurs when the girl is violently attacked and raises her hands in front of her to block.

There were tear marks on the dance skirt on the body of the deceased, one of which was very obvious, it was torn by human external force, and there were a few small marks that were not so obvious, as if it was hung somewhere...

Ye Baiting picked up a pen and continued to record in the post-mortem grid. At the same time, he wrote the key words on another piece of rice paper, which he planned to send to Shen Jiang later, reminding him to look for the possible remnants of the deceased's skirt.

The skirt was taken off, and the deceased's legs were also covered with injuries. The knees went up, and the bruises became heavier as they went inward. It was the kind of level that even if you were an outsider, you could tell at a glance what she had gone through.

Ye Baiting frowned deeply, examining these scars carefully.

They are all bruises pinched out with fingers, some are deep, some are shallow, some have clear edges, some have blurred edges... It seems that they are not formed by one force, but superimposed.

Ye Baiting guessed that the person who harassed the girl might not be alone.

Further up the test, some scars are even more shocking.There are bloodstains and lacerations...

The human body is delicate, especially girls. If you are inexperienced or too excited, some intimate behaviors can easily cause scars, but what kind of voluntary behavior is accidental injury, and what kind is forced tearing, forensic doctor will take a look It is very clear.

In voluntary intimacy, even if there is a tear, it is along the natural growth direction of the organ. Involuntary there will be a lot of struggling movements, and the common location of the wound is different from the former.

"She definitely didn't want to, this is deliberate infringement!"

Ye Baiting did the autopsy as carefully as possible, without missing any details, so as not to let the deceased suffer a second crime. The entire autopsy took a long time, and he was writing while doing the autopsy. He was so concentrated that he didn't drink a sip of water all afternoon.

Sure enough, some new things were detected. In the past ten hours, that is, last night, the deceased may have had intimate acts with more than one man... It seems that many people in this wine party are dishonest.

This also needs to be told to Shen Jiang and Qiu Yiqing that men may lie to each other and cover up each other, and pay attention to the logical inconsistencies in their confessions.

Next, an anatomical inspection is performed.

Ye Baiting also completed this process carefully and rigorously. The deceased had edema in the lungs and bleeding spots in the intestines. Combined with the traces detected before, it was very obvious that the cause of death of the deceased was drinking fake wine and being poisoned.

Some of her organs were damaged, some of which were caused by the poison of counterfeit alcohol, and some were accumulated over time. Daha was not lying when he said that she drank very well. The deceased may have had the habit of drinking for a long time. It has a great impact on the organs, especially the liver and kidney.

There is evidence of this, and her teeth.

The enamel on the inside of the deceased’s teeth was damaged. Similar damage has been seen in previous cases. This was caused by frequent vomiting, gastric acid upwelling, and tooth corrosion. Discord; for example, pregnant women have nausea and vomiting; for example, they have the habit of picking their throats to induce vomiting due to body anxiety or other reasons...the other is that they often drink alcohol, and it is inevitable to vomit when drunk.

These are not difficult to check and confirm, just let Shen Jiang pay attention.

It's just that such serious corrosion marks on the teeth must be frequent, long-term drinking, and people who like alcohol can't stand it. It's hard for Ye Baiting not to think of the deceased's occupation.

He has been here for such a long time, and he has some understanding of the local social situation. The fireworks venue is not illegal here, but the girls inside are all cheap, and it is difficult to get out.The Jiaofang Division is different. It is not a non-governmental organization, but an official organization. It does not engage in flesh and blood business in the open.

But after all, it is not an absolutely decent place. Generally, the people who go in are the female family members who have been convicted by the government. They are of low status and have no future. You can't afford to be offended by high authority, you have to be careful, some girls want to earn a living and live comfortably, slowly, they form a special set of unspoken rules, and they won't do it blatantly like brothels and Chuguan. business', but it is inevitable to be exposed to such things.

You definitely don’t dare to make trouble. Without the family and the support of relatives, the girls are already struggling just to survive. If the trouble is serious, it will only be themselves who suffer. Most of them suffer from bullying, just want to be bullied Others have forgotten that if you can live well in the future, no matter what, at least it is much better than brothels, Chu houses, and private nests, isn't it?

If you want to eat well in this line of business, and get along well, among other things, knowing your eyes and being sensible is the most important thing. If you want to get involved in men's drinking games, the most important thing is this 'wine table culture', Ye Baiting thought, this This Yulinglong girl is probably more poisoned by these four words than most people.

But accepting fate is accepting fate, and people's hearts are people's hearts.

There is no other way ahead, you can't go to other places, you can only live in this kind of place, and you can only master this kind of survival skills, which does not mean that this is your favorite way of life.Some people may have been staring at these shortcuts early on, wanting to climb up, want to hook up a reliable benefactor, and have nothing to worry about since then, and some people don't want to, all the hard work is just to save some money by themselves , for better future.

Yu Linglong... which one is it?

Ye Baiting couldn't figure it out.

He just shook off the white shroud and slowly covered the stitched corpse, covering the girl's bruised body and beautiful youthful face.

If there is an afterlife, I hope you are a lucky girl, accompanied by flowers under your feet, and family and friends around you.

……

On Shen Jiang's side, he soon received the note brought by the young master, and immediately began to pay attention.

The trace evidence collection of the crime scene and path is in progress. It is easy to emphasize the color and fabric of the skirt, but it will not be so fast to check whether the deceased has been drinking frequently and whether the body is in pain. At least the companion of the deceased must be interrogated to see her What is the difference in lifestyle...

Linglong was not the only one who participated in the song and dance performance that night. Among the dancers, there was a partner who was familiar with her. Those who are easy to be invited by name are the ones who are able to drink. Yu Linglong is their senior, she is a celebrity in the Jiaofang Division, she is often called out to perform dances, so she often drinks. Ordinary men may not be able to match her drinking capacity. Drinking So much, it's normal to feel sick after drinking, she has seen Yu Linglong vomit many times, most of them are drunk, it is definitely not some kind of pregnancy sickness, they are in this line of work, they know what troubles should not be touched, and Yu Linglong can't get sick. No, except for the discomfort after drinking, she has always been fine. She also practices dancing every day. She has a body that is not easy to gain weight, so she does not need to use special methods to control her weight...

Shen Jiang then understood that the young master didn't need to worry about the autopsy error at all. There was nothing wrong with the autopsy. Yu Linglong just drank alcohol frequently, which had become a habit. Whether she wanted it or not, her internal organs would be damaged to a certain extent.

After asking the confession, Shen Jiang went to Yu Linglong's room again.

He has learned that recently, the imperial court has been busy with the important affairs of the missions inside and outside the court. Daha's side has been playing tricks, saying that he wants to watch songs and dances, hold banquets, and have several rounds of small gatherings. In these days, Yu Linglong performed dances more than once and always stayed at the mission. For her convenience, Daha specially allocated a room for her to rest here when it was late at night and it was inconvenient to leave.

But this room is a bit off, on the west side near the outer wall, far away from the courtyard where the missions gather, probably because of this, Yu Linglong occasionally dares to stay overnight, because it is very close to Dazhao's guards.

Shen Jiang entered the room and looked around. There were a lot of things in the room, including women's makeup jewelry, skirts of various colors and materials, in different sizes, and some musical instruments he couldn't recognize at all. With wall shelves, it filled the whole room.

There is a large piece of ground in the middle of the room, and the middle floor is very smooth, even glowing.

Shen Jiang took a closer look and found that the room was very clean. In order to entertain Shituan, the people in Honglu Temple did not slack off and even refurbished the seal paint. The ground is so smooth...it should be stepped on frequently.

The frequency of stepping on it was so high that it polished the ground, and I knew it was not a normal thing. She was practicing dancing in the room?

Staying late at night, in my own room... Shen Jiang thought about the reminder on the young master's paper, and summed up the key words. This girl is good at dancing, not to mention adapting, at least she knows how to deal with the so-called 'drinking table culture'. She doesn't like this from the bottom of her heart. This kind of thing, I don't like to 'serve' men like that, but I can't accept it.

But she seems to be very self-disciplined and not against dancing?

"Huh? Is this a wine jar?"

Shen Jiang found two jars of wine on an elevated shelf in one corner, black pottery, small jars, the two were exactly the same, and could hold three catties of wine at most. It has been opened, and there is a smell of alcohol.

He sniffed it closer, and it was very fragrant.

Shen Jiang does not dare to say that he is a person who understands wine, but he is free and likes to drink a few sips. Fortunately, he can tell the difference. The taste of this wine is not strong. It seems too light at first smell, but there is a hint of sweetness after careful tasting , It lingers in the nose for a long time, making people want to taste it...

This is good wine.

This girl can drink it!

Shen Jiang observed carefully, the position of the shelf is slightly off, people who enter the room will not see it at first sight, it is just two jars of wine, which can be put on the ground or stuffed in the cabinet, but they are Put it on the most beautiful shelf in this room... Yu Linglong should cherish it very much.

One jar of wine has been sealed with mud, and the other jar of wine has been opened, and she drank half of it. Who did she drink with the opened half jar?Could it be that she raised someone here?

"Shen Baihu! There are discoveries here!"

"I'm coming!"

Shen Jiang was so busy that he hit the back of his head with his feet. There were too many puzzles and doubts, so he didn't have time to think, so he could only write down the points he found one by one, and sent them back to Beizhen Fusi, and handed them over to the young master, asking him to sort them out when he was free. .

In the dead of night, the sound of the dripping glass is silent.

Ye Baiting had already finished all the work, returned to the room, spread all the information slips sent back on the small table, sat cross-legged, sorted out little by little, and the face of the deceased gradually became clear in his mind.

The dancing girl Yu Linglong, seems to be very adaptable to the rules, she can eat everywhere and mix well, but she probably doesn't like this kind of life very much. She really resists the approach of men, but she can't resist, but these external tribulations, it seems Even failed to destroy her spiritual world, she has a very pure love and devotion to dance, and she will practice by herself in the middle of the night when no one is around. She also has a different understanding and attitude towards alcohol. She will be forced to get drunk and vomit on the days of dancing, but she still has a good impression of wine... She has very good wine and good taste.

Dancing isn't wrong, neither is alcohol, it's the people who don't have the same attitude.

She doesn't want to go with the crowd and really commit herself to a certain man. She has many secrets hidden in her heart, and she also has things and people she wants to protect and cherish.

Who is the half of the wine in the jar shared with?In her life circle, who is the person who is the closest and the easiest to become friends with?

Shen Jiang wondered if Yu Linglong had a man in the mission, who could share wine with him, and dance in the room to show him at night, but Ye Baiting thought it was unlikely. For Yu Linglong, in her own small space, Dancing and drinking are both very intimate things, detached from the mundane, and endowed with another spiritual meaning. It is not possible to share if you have a certain degree of acquaintance, and intimacy is far from enough.

The mission's visit is short enough to establish this kind of 'friendship'. Girls have high requirements for the perception and expression of emotions. It is not easy to do this kind of thing.

Ye Baiting carefully looked through the documents in his hand.

Yu Linglong is beautiful, and is easy to be liked by men, but in Jiaofang Division, this is a point of competition. Even if she is not sharp, she can easily "get in the way of others", and it is difficult to make close friends. Full of all kinds of rumors and gossip, it is really impossible to have a deep relationship with anyone.

So who is this person?Who can appear in her life circle?

Ye Baiting slid his fingertips across the table, and suddenly thought of a person who was at the banquet last night, another woman, Su Jiujiu.

When asked today, Su Jiujiu said that she was accused of going the wrong way, so she accidentally arrived at the front hall. She was about to leave at that time, but Lu Ming saw the plot and couldn't leave. But the banquet took place at night, last night Su It is true that Jijiufang needs to come over to clear and restock, but this is to check for omissions and fill in gaps after the previous order transaction. Her junior brother can come alone. Why is she also here?

Are you not afraid of accidents in the dark at night?

She said that she was pointed the wrong way and arrived at the front hall, so where was the place she originally wanted to go?Is there anyone she wants to meet at this banquet?

Yu Linglong was chased and ran away in a panic, and ran all the way to the vacant wing to the east. She didn't want to be bullied, but she didn't shout out from the beginning to the end, why?What concerns does she have?

Are these two girls related?

Forget about ordinary drinking games, the violation Yu Linglong received this night did not come from one person, this group of men like to play this kind of thing in drinking games, and they don't have any good intentions, a woman may not be able to satisfy them, they Is there another prey, is there a more dirty and disgusting idea hidden?

In this wine bureau, who is taking the initiative, who is seducing whom, who is threatening whom, and who is resisting whom?

And Lu Ming.

There are traces of Yu Linglong's fingernails on his wine cup, which shows how strong the two sides' rejection was at that time. He is a master, has no official background and no family background. If he can enter such an elegant hall, will there be... Make Daha very satisfied, make his immediate superior Zhong Xingyan very satisfied?

His work content is really as simple as helping Zhong Xingyan take care of the business and accompanying the head of the mission?Is he seeking money, or sex, or is it all about money and sex, not for himself, but for others?

Ye Baiting's fingertips landed on the table, it's hard to say anything else, it should be possible to find out who these men are lecherous.

After thinking about it for a day and a night, it was a bit of a headache. He insisted on writing down the problems he was thinking, folded them, and handed them to Jin Yiwei outside, and asked them to give them to Shen Jiang and Qiu Yiqing respectively. He washed his face and went to bed.

Before he fell asleep, he heard the sound of the dog running. It was so late at night that the dog was about to fall asleep, but Qiu Xingqing still didn't come back. What was he doing?

Qiu Xunqing was really busy.

It seems to have been agreed tonight. At the time when the mission has an accident, it is moving everywhere. There is movement in Longfeng Trading Company. The latest news comes from Shizhou. Yan Rouman also sent special clues. People are also ready to move!

For example, the deputy leader, named Mu Ya, didn't stay in the yard obediently, but ran out with his face covered, his whereabouts were surreptitious, and the target was unknown.

There are too many threads everywhere, and I can't catch them at all.

Zheng Ying followed Qiu Suqing up and down the walls, jumping up and down, sweating all over, and almost scolding his mother: "Didn't their mission commit murder today? How can they be so troublesome!"

"It's because of a murder..."

Qiu Yiqing looked at the figure in the dark night in front of him, and his eyes narrowed. It was because of the murder case that it was easier to fish in troubled waters.The motive of the murder may involve various aspects, and it is difficult for outsiders to distinguish clearly whether their purpose of action is the murder or something else.

All the way forward, passing by a familiar place, that is Beizhen Fusi.

Qiu Yiqing saw her room at a glance, and the candles in the window had already been extinguished.

Tonight...he might not be able to go back, and he didn't know if Xiao Zuo could sleep well.

"... Huh? The front is Su Ji Winery! Mu Ya, don't want to do anything to this family... The command is not good, the Su family is afraid of danger!"

Before Zheng Ying's voice fell, Qiu Xunqing had already jumped out quickly, tapped his toes a few times, and flew to the periphery of Su's winery!

However, there is no need for him at all. The masked man in front had just arrived at the wall of Suji Distillery. He has a bow on his back, and holds a self-made long wooden barn in his hand. His silver head reflects the cold light of the night, and his gaze is as powerful as a falcon. Because of his incomplete legs and feet, his standing posture is still not as good-looking as ordinary people, but no one can ignore him. The murderous look revealed at this moment.

he's a veteran, he's strong
