female catcher

Chapter 176 Nameless Poison
At Jiang Xiyuan's insistence, he finally sent Xia Chu home, all the way to the gate of the courtyard.Xia Chu opened the door and asked him if he would go back, Jiang Xiyuan nodded without saying anything with a smile.

When Xia Chu entered the courtyard and wanted to close the door, he propped the door with his arms and leaned in a little, "I will let Liu Qi stay in the mansion for a few days, if there is anything you can't solve, you can ask him to come to the general's mansion to find me. do you know?"

The words are serious words, but when they are whispered with a drunken smile, they are a bit seductive.Xia Chu nodded with a very serious look, trying to bring the atmosphere back to business affairs, "I understand, just don't worry, my lord."

Jiang Xiyuan seemed to be deliberately trying not to let her succeed, so he moved closer, "Are you drunk?" There was a faint cool breath on him, mixed with the slightly sweet aroma of wine, very similar to what Chu Xia had smelled in modern times A kind of mint liquor.It was too close, even in the night she could see his trembling eyelashes, and the atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous again.She hurriedly took half a step back, "I didn't, it's fine."

Jiang Xiyuan laughed, his teeth were neat and white, and he looked innocent. It seemed that all his actions were just overthinking in Xia Chu, "Drinking can help you sleep well, so go in."

He pulled the door out, paused when there was only an inch wide gap, and said to Xia Chu who was in the courtyard: "You must not think about my affairs." After speaking, the door panel closed softly.

Xia Chu went back to the house, but Jiang Xiyuan stood outside the courtyard and did not leave immediately. He took out a hairpin and tied his hair in a bun casually.

He looked at the gate of the courtyard and said silently: If you can sleep well, you can sleep well. If you are still troubled by your heart, instead of making you think of others, you might as well think of me.After standing still for a while, he turned and left,

After a while, Xia Chu didn't realize if he had been fooled by Jiang Xiyuan.

It might be okay if he didn't say that before he left, but she couldn't stop herself from thinking about it in a mess, and finally couldn't bear the alcohol and fell into a dream.The night she dreaded passed in such a muddle, and it was a good night's sleep.

Waking up early in the morning and walking to the courtyard in the early summer, the teacup that Su Zhen used was still on the stone table. In the dim sunlight, it seemed like a story left over from a previous life.

She looked down, and the tea inside had evaporated to only half a cup, leaving circles of traces of the process on the cup wall.After a moment of silence, she took the cup into the kitchen, dipped it into the basin after hesitation, and washed it carefully.

Since it can't be kept, the only choice is to let it pass.

After a good night's sleep, Xia Chu arrived at the government office refreshed and refreshed, and the others hadn't come yet.She took the jar of medicine out of the cabinet and went to find Dr. Liu by herself.

After Guangji Hall closed, Dr. Liu did not go to other pharmacies to sit in the hall.I was alone at home, and someone came to seek medical advice because of his name, so he would look around and earn some porridge and rice money. He didn't feel tired at home, and lived a peaceful and natural life.

After Xia Chu saw him and exchanged a few words, he put the jar of medicine on the table, "This medicine jar has the words Guangjitang written on it, do you see that it is the medicine from Guangjitang in the past?"

Dr. Liu took off the lid and smelled it, nodded and said, "That's right, I made this prescription in the past, it's for stopping bleeding and healing wounds."

"Then can you tell if there are other drugs mixed in?"

"Other medicines? What kind of medicine?" Doctor Liu was about to pick out the ointment with his hands, but Xia Chu hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't touch the poison. I tried it yesterday, and I only used a small amount, a fish. Instant death."

Dr. Liu was taken aback, and put the medicine on the table, "What kind of medicine is so poisonous?"

"That's exactly what I want to ask you." Xia Chu smiled bitterly, "If I can tell the difference, I don't need to bother you. There is a murder case that may be related to this, please do me a favor."

After hearing this, Dr. Liu thought for a while and got up to find a piece of paper and a small wooden stick. He took some medicine from the jar and wiped it on the paper.

"How?" Xia Chu asked hopefully.The identification methods in ancient times were backward, but the poisons were also underdeveloped. There were not many toxic substances, and they were all made from natural materials, unlike modern chemical poisons.Xia Chu thought it wouldn't be too difficult to tell, but seeing Doctor Liu frowning, he felt that he might be thinking simply.

Dr. Liu pondered for a moment, stroked his beard and said, "The paper is fine, so it's not corrosive. It's not arsenic, either. Arsenic is ore, and the powder can't be completely melted. There's nothing in it."

"And are there any other potent poisons besides arsenic?"

"Nyxony is very poisonous."

"Dony money? Is there any in it?" Xia Chu asked anxiously with renewed hope.

"Nyxony is also a medicinal material. If it really got mixed in, it's really hard to tell. After all, it's already been made into ointment." Doctor Liu pointed to the pot of medicine, and said: "Well, tell me first. The condition of the deceased should be inferred."

At the beginning of Xia, he hurriedly told Dr. Liu about Yue Xiaohong's death and the autopsy.But he shook his head as soon as he heard it, "It's not Nux."

"Are you sure?"

"Nymoqianzi is also called the drug of pulling machine. The reason for this name is that the head and feet of the person who died after being poisoned by this poison will be rickety, which looks like a machine. But you said that the deceased was lying flat on the bed, so It wasn't nuxon poisoning. His lips and hands were cyanotic, but he was suffocating."

Dr. Liu thought about it again, but still shook his head, "There is also the hook kiss, which will cause suffocation, but according to what you said, the wound of the man is not big, and with this amount of medicine, he will not die. Talent is."

Xia Chu was stunned for a while after listening, "Is there anything else?"

"That's all the old man knows." Dr. Liu said apologetically, "The medicine has three parts of poison, so the poison also has three parts of medicinal properties. There are also many prescriptions for ginkgo, nuxe and arsenic, all of which are used in the same amount. If the amount is just right, it is medicine, and if it is too much, it is poison. This jar of medicine is trauma medicine, and it is only used on a few small incisions on the body, and the poison will not kill you instantly."

Xia Chu thanked him very disappointed, and left without success, holding the jar of medicine at a loss as to what to do.When passing by the West Market, she looked at the tall Taiguang Building, and her thoughts were brought back to that scene of playing dragons and phoenixes.That day, Yue Xiaohong on the stage had already turned into a white bone, and that day, Young Master Huang had disappeared into the vast crowd, which made people feel extremely sad.

Thinking of Su Zhen, Xia Chu was still sad as expected, but she knew that no matter how sad she felt, it would eventually pass.It's like the beautiful past has become a memory.

She simply let her emotions go, thinking about the encounters and acquaintances all the way, thinking about it bit by bit, and slowly walked back to the government office.

At this time, the teahouse opposite Taiguang Building was already full of voices. The shopkeeper did not expect that the business would be so good when he got up early. Wang Huai in the hall cast a grateful glance.

Wang Huai came early in the morning, talking about Yue Xiaohong's case to Brother Du who was sitting opposite him, and other brothers ran to the nearby teahouse to spread the word, gradually a room full of people gathered.

Of course Wang Huai's eloquence is not as good as Chang Qing's, but after all he used to be a fast catcher, so when he talked about cases and government affairs, he was eloquent and fluent, quite credible.

"Let me tell you, is what you said true! The government office refused to be promoted yesterday, saying that there was no evidence. Now that the evidence has been found, why is it still not interrogated!" Someone stood outside and asked loudly.

Wang Huailang laughed, and replied loudly: "This brother is still thinking too much. Was Tang Baoxin found out by his government? No. It was found out by the Defang team! You all know that. "

Some people echoed and said they knew it, while others asked, this murderer is the murderer, who made the difference?
"Then how can it be the same! Boss Yue is going to sing in the palace. The Gabang is gone, and the higher-ups can watch it. Asking who solved the case, do you want to say that the German class can't make it? If you don't believe it, just watch it." Well, when the time comes, the government will definitely introduce individual murderers, and that will be due to his contribution at the beginning of Xia!" Wang Huai said very firmly.

He had worked under Xia Chu's men before, so he knew her ways.Now that the government office is not promoted, it means that the murderer is probably not Tang Baoxin, but someone else.But everyone believed that Yue Xiaohong was killed by Tang Baoxin, so Wang Huai took advantage of the situation and added the section about meeting Zheng Lian on the street yesterday, making the matter even more real.

"If you don't kill the real culprit, how can it be regarded as an explanation to Boss Yue! The government thinks we are easy to fool!" Someone shouted angrily, "What is he at the beginning of Xia!"

"Hey, don't say that." Wang Huai stopped the conversation with a smile, "With his seniority and age, if there is no one behind him who can catch the head, why is it not considered a thing? But even if he is protected With him being a headhunter, he also has to put on a show to score points, doesn't he?"

"But I heard that Xia Butou has no background, who will keep him?" someone asked.

Wang Huai's brother stood in the crowd and took the conversation, "Who else will keep her? She is a head catcher in the government office, so naturally the immediate boss of the government office will keep her!"

"Isn't that the same problem? He has no background, so what is Mr. Jiang doing protecting him?"

"Hey, if you ask me, who should I ask? If it's a man and a woman, it's easy to guess. What else can happen between the two men? Don't talk nonsense."

This is said in reverse, but it is more effective to say it in reverse.Someone in the crowd immediately dismissed the words and began to guess.After buzzing for a while, Du Shan asked Wang Huai in a loud voice, "I mean, Mr. Jiang really doesn't know Mr. Xia Butou? You have stayed in the government office, you can always see something, right? "

"I can't say that. Although I'm not in the government office now, I'm not the one who talks about people behind their backs." Wang Huai waved his hand, "You just listen to what I just said. We are all crew cut The common people can't make a big impact, and if the higher-ups can't hear you, why don't you just let him make trouble? It's a pity that you all want to help Boss Yue to seek justice, but I see, this is the way it is, it depends on his Xia Chu wanting to kill Who, it's definitely not Tang Baoxin anyway."

"That won't work!" Du Shan slapped the table and stood up, "Boss Yue's matter can't just be so unclear!"

"It can't be unclear!" A group of people also shouted.

Wang Huai stood up and sighed: "Boss Yue, if someone knows, he should be relieved! But what's the use of you shouting?"

I don't know who suddenly yelled: "Go to the government office! Let Xia Chu make it clear!"

"Yes! Go to the government office!"
