Da Song Private Investigator

Chapter 476 The person sleeping in the box.

Early the next morning, the weather was so clear that people wanted to shout loudly.

After getting up, Hwarang washed his face in the courtyard. There were a few sparrows standing on the edge of the room. They were chirping and jumping, as if they were celebrating the coming of spring. After washing his face, Hwarang looked up at them, thinking that these birds could Really no worries, as long as they don't have no food like winter, they can be happy all season.

There is a willow tree and several potted flowers planted in the courtyard of the detective agency. At this time, the willow tree has sprouted new buds, and the willow branches have softened a lot. When the wind blows, they will rise up. Hwarang thinks that today is really a good day.

But in such a good weather, something not very good happened.

Hua Lang and the others came to the state government office, Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce were about to go out, seeing their expressions seemed to be in a panic, Hua Lang stepped forward and asked, "Brother Bao, Mr. Gongsun, why are you in such a hurry?"

Gongsun Ce said as he walked, "The big thing is wrong, that Wu bone is dead."

"Dead?" Hua Lang was startled, and then quickly asked, "Who reported the case, and how did he die?"

Gongsun Ce sighed, and said, "It was the boy from Dong's mansion who came to report the case, because their master Dong Yuanwai was pestered by the remaining jugglers and couldn't leave. The boy didn't say anything about the exact cause of death." Clear, let's go and talk."

The group stopped talking and hurried to the Dong Mansion, and then went directly to the backyard.

At this time, the backyard was a bit noisy, and the remaining three jugglers, Lin Qing, Liang Tian, ​​and Liang Dou, were surrounded by Dong's servants with sticks, as if they were going to tie them up, but Liang Tian and Liang Dou They are definitely not ordinary people, they are very powerful, so few people just came forward, while Dong Yuanwai, Dong Cheng, stood aside and got angry, as if he felt that these few people framed him, it was really abominable.

When Dong Cheng saw Bao Zheng and the others coming, he hurriedly went up to him and said, "Master Bao, you are here. These people...they framed me as the one who killed their companions and wanted to beat me. If it wasn't for this My mansion, now I don’t know what they have achieved, Mr. Bao, you should quickly solve the case and let them leave here, I would rather pay them twice the price.”

At this moment, Lin Qing was being protected by Liang Douliangtian. When he saw Mr. Bao coming, he became more courageous and said: "Our two companions died in your house. Do you think you will give us twice the price?" If you are willing to give up, you must give us an explanation and find the murderer."

It's normal for these people to have this kind of reaction, so Bao Zheng didn't blame him too much, but just told them to be calm and wait until the inspection is over.

After calming down the anger of both parties, Bao Zheng and Hua Lang entered the boneless room, but when they saw Wu Gu's body, they still couldn't help the palpitations and wanted to escape from the room as soon as possible, because they found Wu Gu's dead body. It turned out that he died in an iron box. The iron box is not very big. I am afraid that even a seven or eight-year-old child cannot lie in it, but Wu Gu's body is lying curled up inside, with his mouth open. It was very big, with its eyes open, and it looked really scary like that.

This scene was a bit shocking. After Bao Zheng and the others saw this, they were really worried that they would not be able to sleep tonight. Hua Wan'er, who was relatively timid, had already turned her face away at this time. She really didn't dare to watch this kind of scene.

Hwarang asked someone to get Wu Gu's body out of it. When Hwarang went to check, Wu Gu's body could no longer lie flat, it could only curl up like he was in a box, giving people the feeling of is a ball.

But no matter what happened to Wu Gu's body, Hwarang was still able to check the cause of death. Hwarang found that the deceased's tongue had stuck out of his mouth, his face was blue and dark, and there was no scar on other parts of his body, let alone signs of poisoning. Hwarang After this inspection, he shouted to the people outside: "Who was the first to discover Wu Gu's body?"

At this time, Lin Qing came in from the outside, and he quickly replied: "I was the first to discover Wu Gu's body. When I came in, I found that the iron box was locked. The lock was opened, and Wu Gu was found to be dead." Lin Qing said, pointing to the lock on the table, which was open at the moment, but it was obvious that it had been pried open.

In Lin Qing's words, Hwarang and others heard something strange, but he didn't ask first, but said to Bao Zheng and the others: "The deceased's tongue sticks out and his face is blue. He can't breathe. This, together with what Lin Qing said, shows that Wu Gu was locked in a box and suffocated to death."

After Hua Lang finished speaking, Bao Zheng immediately asked his own doubts: "Wu Gu is fine by himself, why would he be willing to be locked in a box? Could it be that someone stunned him first?"

Bao Zheng looked at Hua Lang and asked, but Hua Lang didn't answer, Lin Qing said from the side: "Master Bao doesn't know, the reason why Wu Gu can shrink his body freely is because he was locked in a box of this size since he was a child. He just got it out of practice, so even if he grows up, he still sleeps in the box every night, because he said it gives him a sense of security, and when I saw the lock on the outside of the box, I immediately felt that something was wrong."

After listening to Lin Qing's words, everyone couldn't believe their ears. Is what Lin Qing said just now true? Does anyone really feel safe sleeping in a box of this size? If so, he What kind of things have you suffered before to make this happen?

Lin Qing seemed to see everyone's disbelief, so he continued to explain: "When I met Lin Qing, he was an artist performing clavicles on the street, because I am also an artist performing street performers, so we got along very well. , when I found out that he slept in a box at night, I also felt very strange, so I asked him why he did this. He refused to say at first, but then our relationship gradually improved, and he also He once confided that he seemed to be a concubine at home. He was a child born to his father and a servant girl in the mansion. After he was born, the wife of the main house killed his mother. Locking him in a box of that size, he spent his youth like that. Then one day, he finally couldn't bear this kind of domestic violence, so he ran away from home. The only thing he brought out was this box , he..." Lin Qing couldn't speak anymore when he said this, he was a little choked up, probably because he sympathized with Wu Gu's experience, or because he thought of his miserable life, he couldn't control himself for a while.

When everyone heard this, they already understood what happened to Wu Gu, a street performer with a miserable childhood.
