Great Lawyer

Chapter 843 On-Site Verification ([-])

It's not past seven days, so Liu Youpeng's coffin is still at home.

When Du Jiuyan, King Gui, Pei Ying, Guo Ao, Sun Xiwu, and Lian Kui arrived, the mourning hall built by his family was full of people coming and going to offer their condolences.

Because Liu Youpeng was not married yet, his mother Lu selected a marriage for him among the common people in the clan, and adopted an adopted son.

The little girl was at most 15 years old, with a very delicate appearance. Kneeling in front of the coffin, she was very petite. She held the hand of her "son", and the two of them looked at the crowd in horror.

The "son" is three or four years old, he is very fair, he is held by the little girl obediently, he doesn't cry or make trouble, his knee hurts, he doesn't dare to be lazy and sit for a while, he can only move around, bit his lip and give birth endure.

"Keep crying." A woman glared at the little girl and angrily reprimanded in a low voice, "I don't understand any rules."

The little girl trembled in fright, hung her head and continued to cry.

Du Jiuyan raised his eyebrows, pointed to the coffin and said, "The idlers should get out, we are going to open the coffin for an autopsy."

"Open the coffin?" Lu jumped up, "This, this is unlucky, no!"

Zhou Yan stood aside and did not speak. He had inspected the corpse immediately, so he followed, not for the autopsy, but to stare at Du Jiuyan.

He now has more clues than Du Jiuyan, so he just needs to keep an eye on Du Jiuyan to see what he missed.

"Is there anything more inauspicious than death?" Du Jiuyan looked at Lu Shi curiously.

It is rare for Lu Shi to be spoken to so disrespectfully. She frowned and wanted to speak.Before she could speak, Du Jiuyan said: "Please cooperate, we are now handling the case by the government."

"I am a litigator, and I am also Princess Gui, haha!" Du Jiuyan reminded her while looking at her.

She was reminding herself that she couldn't afford to offend her status.Lu's heart was filled with anger, but she really didn't dare to vent it, so she could only hold back and said: "Wait a minute, my father is coming." She said, and hurriedly sent someone to invite Liu Min.

Liu Min hurried over, seeing that it was Du Jiuyan, he didn't dare to stop him, and whispered to Lu Shi: "Princess Gui is handling the case, why are you stopping us, we can't offend you, don't mess around."

"Yes!" Mrs. Lu didn't dare to say more, and asked everyone to retreat.

Zhou Yan stood beside the coffin.

Du Jiuyan doesn't care if he sees it or not, because even if he sees through the process, he may not be able to deduce the result.

Lian Kui and Sun Xiwu opened the coffin, and Liu Youpeng lay quietly in it. It had been several days, and the weather was hot, so the corpse had a peculiar smell, and his cheeks were swollen and blistered.

The corpse was carried out and placed on the coffin board. Pei Ying got ready and squatted beside the corpse to start the inspection.

Everyone stared at Pei Ying, thinking that she was not in a hurry, and she checked very carefully.

"This, all the women in Dazhou have done this kind of thing?" Lu Shi stood aside, feeling terrified in his heart.

In a blink of an eye, Pei Ying had someone take off the shroud that Liu Youpeng was wearing. Her face was heavy and she didn't dare to say anything.

"How is it?" Du Jiuyan squatted beside Pei Ying with gloves on, holding Liu Youpeng's hand to check.

The nails are clean, the body spots are unevenly distributed, and the back is more than the chest.

"Is this caused by being moved after death?"

Pei Ying nodded and said in a low voice, "That's true."

"Look at his nasal cavity and mouth." Du Jiuyan whispered in her ear, "See if there are any foreign objects inside."

Pei Ying looked at her and said strangely: "You suspect that he didn't drown in the bathtub?"

"Yes." Du Jiuyan said, "There are many ways to kill a person, and drowning a person is by no means the easiest."

If someone sneaked into Liu Youpeng's room, Liu Youpeng did not find the murderer at that time.Then the murderer behind the scenes, how to kill him?

He has many options.

For example, the neck was wiped off with a knife, the back of the head was hit with a heavy object, and the neck was strangled with a rope.

In Du Jiuyan's view, the act of holding his head in the bathtub was too strenuous.Especially people who are dying struggle so hard that ordinary people can't hold it back at all.

"In the bathtub, the water is clean." Du Jiuyan whispered, "If it is in other places, in the nasal cavity and oral cavity, there should be residue."

Pei Ying nodded. Diao Da also told her about this method, but it was not as straightforward as Du Jiuyan's.

Du Jiuyan handed her a handkerchief.

Pei Ying used very long chopsticks to wipe the mouth of the deceased.

Zhou Yan stood aside, his heart skipping a beat.He knew he had missed something.

He had suspected that the scene of the first crime was not the room.At that time, he also wanted to investigate, but because of too few clues and limited conditions, he later discovered Fu Ting, so he gave up this idea.

Now it seems that he just ignored the most important point.

Zhou Yan involuntarily took a step forward, wanting to see clearly.

Du Jiuyan looked up at him, Zhou Yan's face flushed suddenly, and he didn't dare to move again.

Du Jiuyan didn't bother to talk to him.

Pei Ying folded up the handkerchief and said to Du Jiuyan, "Okay, there are few clues about the deceased. If you don't do an autopsy, you can only go here."

"Let's do this first," Du Jiuyan said, "Let's go to the room where the incident happened."

Pei Ying should be, to pack up.

"Put it away." King Gui and Liu Min said, "We will come again if necessary, and you can bury normally."

It should be Liu Min's surrender.

When a group of people came out, Zhou Yan followed them neither far nor near.

Pei Ying whispered to Du Jiuyan: "The result of the investigation is very unsatisfactory. There is nothing in the mouth of the deceased."

She opened the veil and showed it to Du Jiuyan.

Du Jiuyan smelled it, and besides a foul smell, there was also an unspeakable fishy smell.

"Look at the dead man's room first." Du Jiuyan stared at the handkerchief thoughtfully.

Liu Youpeng's room remained in its original state, which was requested by Zhou Yan at the time. Du Jiuyan told Zhou Yan very generously: "This is a very good job. Until the final case is finalized, the crime scene will remain as it is."

Zhou Yan snorted, entered the door and stood aside.

The mattress was newly changed, without any wrinkles from sleep. Du Jiuyan pointed to the clothes on the screen and asked Liu Yi who came with them: "Is this the clothes Liu Youpeng changed?"

"Yes!" Liu Yi murmured in his heart, but he also heard about the bet between Du Jiuyan and Liu Zhen, so he didn't know how to deal with it.

Du Jiuyan took Liu Youpeng's clothes, smelled them, raised his eyebrows and said to King Gui: "My lord, come here."

King Gui came over, and the husband and wife stood in front of the screen, talking in a low voice.

After a while, Du Jiuyan walked to the tub and asked, "Is there another tub of the same size?"

"Yes, yes."

"Excuse me, bring it here, and get this much water again."

Liu Yi didn't dare to object, so he ordered someone to do it.

Zhou Yan showed disdain in his eyes, snorted coldly, and said: "With such a water level and the size of the bucket, visual inspection is enough, and we still need to test?"

Du Jiuyan ignored him.

Both the water and the bucket were brought over, and they were placed in the same position as the original bucket, and the water level was almost the same.

"Brothers," Du Jiuyan looked at Lian Kui and Guo Ao, "Which one of you is about the same height as Liu Youpeng?"

Gu Qingshan has experience, so he immediately raised his hand and replied: "I am much taller and stronger than him, I definitely can't."

This is the truth, but he has to get rid of it early, otherwise the princess will definitely cheat him.

"He," Guo Ao pointed at Lian Kui cleverly, "He, although he is a bit stronger than Liu Youpeng, he is about the same size."

Lian Kui groaned and shook his head belatedly: "I, I, I don't think I can sit in."

"It's up to you." Du Jiuyan pointed at Guo Ao, "Take off your clothes and go in."

Guo Au wanted to cry but had no tears, so he answered bitterly, took a bath in front of everyone, took off only his trousers, and went into the bathtub.

Guo Ao is of medium height, slightly thinner than Liu Youpeng, but after sitting in it, his legs are bent inside, and the water overflows to the chest.

"Gu Qingshan!" Du Jiuyan said.

Gu Qingshan went forward and said to Guo Au: "You resist with all your strength!"

Before Guo Ao agreed, he held Guo Ao's head down and stuffed him into the bathtub.

"Aww!" Guo Ao screamed, his neck creaked, and his head was desperately resisting.

Gu Qingshan exerted himself.

The strength was not small, but Guo Au's face was in the water. It is basically impossible to drown people at this level.

One is that there is not enough water, but that after the body is bent, the space left in the bathtub is not enough for a thumping head.

"Jiu, Master Jiu, help!" Guo Ao still had the strength to speak!
Gu Qingshan let go, Guo Ao was lying in the bathtub, panting, Du Jiuyan asked: "How do you feel?"

"No, nothing." Guo Ao shook his head, "I can still hold on."

Du Jiuyan hummed, and Guo Ao heard Gu Qingshan say: "The force is very strong, it is basically impossible to drown people like this."

Guo Ao's martial arts is definitely not as good as Gu Qingshan, but he pressed his head from behind, Guo Ao still resisted.Even Fu Ting, who has the strength of a unicorn arm, may not be able to do it.

"So you didn't ask me," Guo Au wiped away tears, feeling that it was not easy to be a qualified follower.

Zhou Yan stood aside, as if struck by lightning.He suddenly understood why Du Jiuyan wanted to experiment.

Because only by trying can this possibility be completely ruled out.

So, the most important thing to check now is not the cause of death of the deceased, but the scene of the first crime.

Where did the dead man die?

"Where's Ye Hu?" Du Jiuyan asked Liu Yi.

Liu Yi glanced at Zhou Yan and then carefully at Du Jiuyan.There is no comparison and I don't know the means of investigation, so it is so obvious to distinguish between high and low.

When Zhou Yan checked, he kept questioning the four people to estimate and judge.

Du Jiuyan was different, he just experimented when he came up, went through one by one, and inferred one by one.

In this way, every time she takes a step forward, she is sure and sure.

"Yes, this will bring him here."

Ye Hu bowed and was about to stand at the door, Du Jiuyan asked, "Where did you burn the bath water, and how much did you burn in total?"

"In the kitchen," Ye Hu said with his head down, "inside the pot."

"Go and see."

Du Jiuyan went to the kitchen with King Gui.

Just a simple iron pot and stove, with firewood piled next to it.The pot is not very big, but it is enough to boil a pot of hot water for bathing.

"Just, that's all." Ye Hu gestured at the water level, Du Jiuyan nodded, and asked, "If you mix cold water, do you think the water level in the tub is appropriate?"

Ye Hu nodded.

That sort of thing is estimating unless you do it all over again.

Du Jiuyan didn't ask any more questions, and said to Liu Yi, "Excuse me, please bring Liu Zijun and Liu Zifeng here."

After a while, the two brothers were invited over.

Du Jiuyan asked again according to the original words.

Liu Zifeng said: "...I do let the harsh words go, but it's just talking, I don't even have the guts to kill people."

"Me, me too," Liu Zijun said, "Although I don't like him, I won't kill him."

"Why don't you like him?" Du Jiuyan asked Liu Zifeng.
