After the luck of rebirth was taken away, the true and false daughters teamed up

Chapter 182

Haitang lives in the room at the end of the corridor on the second floor. It is relatively quiet and has a relatively large space. It is considered a special treatment for an oiran.

Because she usually comes into contact with dignitaries and is more concerned about privacy.

Therefore, this place is more suitable for courtesans to live.

Jingzhao Prefecture Yin and Zhang Zhenren took Song Shiyun and Chunxiao all the way to the end of the corridor.

Standing at the door of the oiran, Song Shiyun glanced at Chunxiao and said, "Just wait here and don't go in. It might be a bit scary inside."

Chunxiao hesitated, "I, I'd better follow the lady in..."

Although she was a little scared, she couldn't leave the young lady alone no matter what.

Seeing her persistence, Song Shiyun said nothing and followed Zhang Zhenren into Haitang's room.

Jingzhao Prefecture Yin stood in the house and said, "This is Haitang's room. Her bones were found here."

The oiran's house is just different, divided into inner and outer rooms.

The inner and outer rooms are separated by a flower screen door.

What's going on inside can't be seen from the outside.

Song Shiyun looked around, "Who discovered it?"

"When the maid who was serving Haitang came to help Haitang wash up, she knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no response from Haitang. After pushing the door open and entering, she found Haitang on the bed, turned into a corpse." Zhang Zhenren replied : "Because this was Haitang's room, and Haitang disappeared again, leaving only a corpse. The old bustard of Meng Hongxiu was also frightened, so he reported it to the official."

Hearing this, Song Shiyun nodded: "The bones were found in the inner room, right?"

Zhang Zhenren nodded and pushed open the flower screen door: "Second Miss, you can go in and take a look."

Song Shiyun stepped in after hearing this.

As soon as she walked in, there was a pause in her steps, and her eyes were fixed on the bed for a moment.

because……

A white skeleton was lying on the bed.

Chunxiao, who followed her in, also saw this scene, and she couldn't help but exclaimed, "Ah!"

She seemed to realize that she was yelling a little too much, and she quickly covered her mouth.

Zhang Zhenren and Jingzhao Prefecture Yin also walked in at this time.

Song Shiyun walked towards the bed and asked, "Why are the bones still here?"

Jingzhao Prefect replied: "We originally wanted to take the bones back to the Ministry of Punishment, but the Tiansi Bureau felt that leaving the body here would facilitate inspection, so we left it here."

Song Shiyun couldn't help but look at Master Zhang, "What's the convenience of staying here?"

Why didn't she know that there was such a thing?

No matter how you say it, Meng Hongxiu is full of people, and if the bones are placed here, they might be destroyed.

Moreover, this environment is not conducive to autopsy.

Naturally, it would be more convenient to send it to the autopsy room of the Ministry of Justice.

Zhang Zhenren was still smiling, "It is easier to see what the scene looked like when the bones are preserved at the scene, and to deduce what Haitang went through when he died, otherwise it is always easy to forget and get confused. "

The governor of Jingzhao said: "What Master Zhang said makes sense."

Song Shiyun thought to himself, there is a reason.

She looked at Zhenren Zhang.

Logically speaking, if a murder occurs, the body will definitely be sent to the government as soon as possible.

But Zhenren Zhang left the body behind...

She had the feeling that it was Master Zhang who did this on purpose.

Otherwise, why would the body be left there for two days without being sent away, just waiting for her to come and see it?

But she didn't expose Zhang Zhenren. She walked to the bed, took out a handkerchief, wrapped her right hand, stretched out her hand to touch the white bones, and inspected them carefully.

Just like what Zhang Zhenren said before, there is no skin or flesh on these bones. They are clean and white, as if they are fake.

Judging from the surface, the owner of this white bone seems to have been dead for a long time, so the bone transformation can be so severe.

However, when he reached out and wiped it, the dead air attached to it had not dissipated yet.

Normally, seven days after the death of an average person, the death energy on the bones will completely dissipate.

When the bone-whitening is so severe, there won't be any death energy.The fact that there is still death energy proves that this corpse must have been dead for no more than three days.

It should be consistent with the time when the person in Meng Hongxiu found the bones and reported it to the official.

However, there were no traces at the scene except bones.

Song Shiyun checked carefully and only felt a faint yin energy.

It shows the traces of something coming.

There were no other traces, and Haitang's soul was not seen.

Song Shiyun's face darkened.

"Second Miss, did you find anything?"

Master Zhang came over at this time and asked Song Shiyun.

Song Shiyun shook his head slightly, "There are no traces."

Upon hearing this, Master Zhang asked hesitantly: "Didn't the second lady find any clues?"

Song Shiyun did not answer directly. After two seconds, she asked: "Where are the people in Meng Hongxiu? I want to see Haitang's maid and the old bustard, is that okay?"

Upon hearing this, Master Zhang turned to look at Jingzhao Fuyin.

Jingzhao Prefecture Yin came over and said, "Of course you can. When we came here today, we also informed Madam Yu's mother, as well as Haitang's maid, Mu Yun. They were all in the Madam's room. Ours People are looking at them, if the second young lady wants to take a look, I will take the second young lady there."

Song Shiyun said decisively: "Then go and have a look."

After finishing speaking, she picked up her steps and walked out first.

The others followed suit.

Zhang Zhenren and Jingzhao Fu Yin took them to the old bustard's room next door.

There are many people sitting inside.

Most of them were government officials, and there were only two women sitting inside.

The two women sat next to each other, hugging each other for warmth. Both of them lowered their heads, as if they were quite nervous.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, the two people instantly raised their heads and looked toward the door nervously and expectantly.

Seeing Jingzhao Fuyin, Yu's mother immediately stood up with a smile on her face and greeted him enthusiastically: "Master Fuyin, you are here. Your investigation is almost done. Can you let us Meng Hongxiu go?" ?”

The governor of Jingzhao glared at her expressionlessly, "How presumptuous!"

Yu's mother trembled all over and immediately stood in place.

Seeing this, the governor of Jingzhao continued: "The investigation is still going on. When we can allow you to continue to open the door for business, we will naturally tell you. Come here to find you now. We have invited a second lady to come here, and she is also People in Xuanmen, I want to ask you something, and you must cooperate."

Mother Yu laughed dryly and said repeatedly: "Cooperate, we will definitely cooperate!"

Haitang's maid Mu Yun also nodded quickly.

Seeing this, the governor of Jingzhao raised his hand to Song Shiyun.

Song Shiyun stepped forward, glanced at Yu's mother and Mu Yun, and asked directly: "You are all very familiar with Haitang. What I want to ask is, what did Haitang do every day before her accident? ,Do you guys still remember?"

Mother Yu was a little dumbfounded: "What have you done every day?"

She chewed the word "every day" hard.

Somewhat surprised.

Haitang is still in her teens or 20s after all. After so many years in Meng Hongxiu, who can remember what she did every day?
Let alone every day, they may not be able to remember even what happened two days before the incident.

Of course Song Shiyun didn't ask Haitang every day when he was alive.

Seeing that they had misunderstood, Song Shiyun added: "It happened one month before her death. Did she do anything unusual?"

Mother Yu and Mu Yun looked at each other, hesitantly.

"Unusual things?" Yu's mother asked Mu Yun, "Mu Yun, do you remember?"

Mu Yun scratched his head, feeling a little troubled, "Nothing is different from usual... After the girl gets up every day, she washes and dresses up. Almost all of the day is spent on dressing up, and then she eats and receives guests. , it’s all a matter of day after day, there’s nothing different about it.”

Song Shiyun frowned and said, "About a month before Haitang's accident, did you have contact with any strangers, receive any strange gifts, or see any strange people?"

Mu Yun thought for a while, then shook his head, "No, the guests who come to see the girl now are basically all the ones the girl is familiar with, there are only two or three regular guests, there are no outsiders, and the gifts they give are all the same. As usual, almost all of them are silver coins or jewelry, so there’s nothing strange about them.”
