Chapter 118 Wasn't Suicide?

Qiu Mo wondered why her father had such an idea. One of these two lived in seclusion and had nothing to do with the world;
She couldn't help but leaned closer to Qiu Qianzhan and asked, "Qiu Fu has no grudges with the fourth brother, why did he kill the fourth brother?"

"Mo'er, you don't know about this..." Qiu Qianzhan was inexplicably embarrassed.I thought that although he was exhausted from running around with Wang Xianwei today, he still had something to gain, and now he just happened to be able to show off in front of his daughter.

"Wang Xianwei interrogated several servants of the Qiu Mansion and Shanchun Hall today, and they all said in unison that this is Qiu Fu, and they have been letting them pay attention to Shiro's every move before!" He was quite proud, thinking that he had finally done it. A valuable thing can make you look good in front of your daughter and son-in-law.

Why did Qiu Fu let others keep an eye on Qiu Silang?Qiu Mo and Wen Weixing looked at each other, and the doubts in their hearts became even bigger.

"This... County Captain Wang didn't ask, and they don't know about those people." Qiu Qianzhan expressed helplessness.

"As a living person, you can't just say that you don't see him or disappear. He doesn't have a document to leave the city. Forgive him for not being able to leave Chang'an City. All the right and wrong reasons, let's talk about it after we find him."

Qiu Mo knows that even if they think about it here, they will not understand what Qiu Fu's intention is to monitor Qiu Shihua.Let's wait until we see him and ask him face to face.

What Qiu Mo never expected was that the place where he saw Qiu Fu again was the morgue of Wuhoupu in Chang'an County.

Because Qiu Fu's body was already in disrepair when it was discovered, I was afraid that Qiu Mo would feel uncomfortable looking at it, and the matter of identifying the body was finally done by Wen Weixing and Qiu Shirong.

It was a bloated, fetid corpse.When Marquis Wu lifted off the white cloth covering his upper body, he immediately revealed the stiff, blood-stained, distorted face.Accompanied by the choking stench of corpses, even the imperial doctor Qiu Shirong, who was used to seeing birth, old age, sickness and death, almost suffocated, couldn't help but bent over and started to vomit.

This corpse was none other than Qiu Fu, the housekeeper of the Qiu Mansion.

"The corpse had been soaked in the well for two days. When it was found, it was face down, and the whole body was floating on the well water."

Marquis Wu had seen this kind of violent death a lot, he had seen one that was even more disgusting and smelly than the one in front of him, and when he looked at this corpse again, he didn't feel anything in his heart.He glanced at the medical officer squatting beside him vomiting, and then at the Zhonglang General Wen Weixing who was standing next to him without even moving his eyebrows, and immediately decided in his heart.

Or the one who has been on the battlefield and killed people is a real man.

"How did you find him? Was there anything unusual when you found him?" Wen Weixing even stretched out his hand and opened Qiu Fu's eyelashes: the pupils were dilated, and the whites of the eyes were bleeding. He was undoubtedly drowned.

"The body was found in Yankang Square, in a well 300 meters away from the Qiu Mansion. This well is usually used by a nearby family. It just so happens that the family has been out of the city for business these days. When I got water at home, I found the body, so I reported it to Wuhoupu, and let us fish it out."

Marquis Wu pointed to a piece of folded kraft paper placed next to the corpse and told Wen Weixing, "When we found the corpse, we found this piece of paper from the lining of his clothes. It looks like the suicide note of the deceased..."

Wen Weixing picked up the kraft paper, the kraft paper was very thick, and there was a thin layer of wax oil on the paper.This wax oil can well protect the paper from being soaked by water, but it must be painted after writing and waiting for the writing to dry.

As a suicide note, this operation is too troublesome, as if it is afraid that others will not find out.

Wen Weixing temporarily let go of his doubts, and unfolded the kraft paper to read.Qiu Shirong heard that Qiu Fu had left a suicide note, and after feeling less uncomfortable, he also covered his mouth, enduring his nausea and slowly walked to Wen Weixing's side.

"What did you write?..." Qiu Shirong moved closer, trying to see the handwriting on the paper clearly.But no matter how well protected it was, after soaking in water for three days, although the paper was not completely broken, the traces of the words on it were not very clear.

"He admitted that he attacked Shiro, because Shiro found out that he had an affair with Mrs. Tian and that he also participated in the murder of Mo'er's mother." This letter explained why he hurt Qiu Shihua, and his mental journey of committing suicide in fear of crime afterwards. .

suicide?To be honest, Wen Weixing always felt that something was wrong.This letter was very abrupt, and the writer was very organized. He spent a lot of time preparing the paper for waterproofing after writing it.

"If it were me, I would have waited until the letter was written and dried before applying wax, I would not have wanted to die." Qiu Shirong finally got used to the smell of the morgue, and no longer wanted to vomit.As soon as he returned to his normal state, his sensitivity as a doctor allowed him to discover the abnormality on the corpse.

"It's a bit strange..." Qiu Shirong pointed to the hand of Qiu Fu's corpse and said to Wen Weixing.

Wen Weixing looked in the direction of his fingers, and saw that although the corpse's hands were dead white and swollen, compared with his face, there was not even a single scrape or dirt.Especially his fingers, even under the nails are clean.

"What's wrong? What's the problem?" He didn't understand what Qiu Shirong was wondering about.

"If Qiu Fu committed suicide out of fear of crime, didn't he feel any fear when he threw himself into the well?" Qiu Shirong grabbed Qiu Fu's hand and looked around through a cloth towel.

"What do you mean?" Wen Weixing also felt something strange, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"People will struggle when they are afraid, and when they struggle, they will scratch or cling to things around them. Although there is nothing underground, at least debris such as moss and gravel on the well wall can always be found in his hands .No matter what, fingernails are not... so clean."

One word awakened the dreamer, and Marquis Wu who was standing beside them suddenly realized that this was a neglected detail.He also looked at Qiu Shirong with respect. The doctor is indeed a doctor, and his observation is really meticulous.He hurriedly greeted the two of them, then turned to report to County Captain Wang.

"So..." Wen Weixing and Qiu Shirong looked at each other, and a thought flashed in their hearts at the same time.

It is possible that Qiu Fu did not commit suicide.
