Chapter 43

Xu Wei always felt that his wife was boring, with mediocre looks and bad temper.After two years of marriage, there was no movement in her stomach. If it wasn't because she was his cousin, Xu Wei would have divorced her long ago.

Last night Xu Wei went to the Yanyu Building to have some fun, but unexpectedly, his cousin came up to him and yelled at her.Normally, Xu Weiren would have tolerated it, but there are still so many people who stick to the girl he wants, Xu Wei will never give in, and doesn't want to lose face.

When Xu Siniang left, Xu Wei was still thinking that he wanted you to look good when he went home.But he didn't expect that Xu Siniang didn't go home at all, but died on the tree.

"My lord, I'm telling the truth. I drank too much last night, so I didn't go home with Si Niang. If I knew something would happen to her, I wouldn't let her go home alone!" Xu Wei was anxious Explained, but did not dare to look at the corpse on the ground.On the way here, he had heard all about it, what was hanging on the tree, and the intestines were all over the ground, just thinking about it would seep into people, okay?

The hawker who got up early and set up a stall was the first to discover the body. When he mentioned the scene at that time, he still felt a little weak: "Well, don't you know, my lord, I heard birds singing before the little one came here, wait for the little one to lift up." First, tsk tsk, guess what?" The peddler pointed at the top and gestured, "There are so many crows pecking at her corpse, and some of them are flying in the sky. But the little one was so scared that he almost peed his pants..."

Sun Dalian and Li Dazui were responsible for collecting clues, while Xiao Chengfeng stared at the corpse in a daze.

Wu made an autopsy and said that the time of the deceased's death was probably around midnight.But Xu Wei said that Xu Siniang left before Haishi, so what happened in the middle of this hour?

Thinking that he couldn't ask anything for the time being, Xiao Chengfeng ordered them to carry the body back, and then focused on investigating the social relationship of the deceased.

After Ximenkong heard the case, he opened his mouth and asked, "Is the deceased's clothes still neat? Maybe he was raped before he died?"

Xiao Chengfeng was a little dazed when he heard the words, he hesitated for a moment and said: "It looks good..." Except that his abdomen and clothes were torn apart.

"It's okay to just look at it!" Ximenkong shook his head and said, "Hurry up and ask me to do an autopsy."

"This," Li Dazui stepped forward in embarrassment, and explained to Ximen Kong, "Although she has gone, she is still a woman. I wanted to investigate, but her family disagreed, saying that the dead should not be defiled." Her reputation..."

"Bah!" Ximenkong couldn't help sneering, and laughed with the corners of his lips curled up, "It's not good for her to be alive, but it's even worse if she dies? If you don't find out the clues and catch the murderer, the dead will be buried in the ground. If you can be reconciled, if you can An Sheng? It's ridiculous!"

Li Dazui nodded in agreement, he was a little embarrassed when he thought of the faction, and said: "But my lord, if they make trouble in the Yamen because of this, it's not too good." He said, "My lord, why don't we find a woman to check it out? On the one hand, it can preserve Xu's reputation, and on the other hand, it can help us understand the case. What do you think, my lord?"

Ximenkong thought about it, and thought that this method is feasible, but this person is the only candidate?Seeing that he was interested, Li Dazui suggested again: "My lord, I think we might as well find some stable women. They deliver more babies and know a lot. It shouldn't be a problem."

"If that's the case, then..."

"Wait a minute!" Xiao Chengfeng, who had been sitting silently by the side, suddenly stood up and said to Ximen Kong, "I do know a person who is more courageous than ordinary women, and has more knowledge than Wen Po."

Ximenkong became interested and asked, "Oh, who is it?"

"The shopkeeper of Ren Medical Hall, Gu Ruo!"

Gu Ruo couldn't figure out why the people from the yamen came to him.After she saw the miserable corpse, she finally understood, this is, using herself as a forensic doctor?

Xiao Chengfeng hasn't seen Gu Ruo for two days, but it feels like it's been a long time.It's a lie to say that she doesn't want her, but she has said that, if he keeps pestering her, it will seem a bit condescending.

Xiao Chengfeng has always been sought after by women, and he finally fell in love with him, but that person still doesn't like him.Thinking of him, Xiao Chengfeng is not someone who can't afford to be taken care of and let go of. He really can't be a husband and wife, but just be a friend.But when he really met Gu Ruo, Xiao Chengfeng realized that what he said earlier was bullshit.

He just wants to marry her, why can't they be husband and wife and friends, absolutely impossible!

Xiao Chengfeng was struggling inside, while Ximenkong on the other side was urging Gu Ruo to go and see if there was anything unusual about the corpse.Gu Ruo hadn't done much psychological preparation before he was pushed to have a close contact with the corpse.Fortunately, Wu Zuo had prepared gloves so that he wouldn't really go "intimate".

Ximenkong had also arranged for a Wen Po to accompany Gu Ruo, thinking that he could be a companion, but unexpectedly, after entering, the Wen Po yelled "My mother is here" and kicked her legs and passed out.In the end, it was Gu Ruo who did it himself, and they were guarding outside through the curtain.

When Gu Ruo came out from inside with a calm expression, and said that the deceased had not been violated.Ximenkong couldn't help but think highly of her—bold and careful, steady and calm, not bad.Thinking about it, he secretly elbowed Xiao Chengfeng, and blinked to show that he had a good vision.Seeing his expression, Xiao Chengfeng smiled helplessly.

Gu Ruo didn't notice the interaction between the two, and his mind was still on the corpse.

"My lord, I wonder if Wu Zuo has ever examined the corpse?"

Li Dazui said from the side: "After a general inspection, I know the cause and time of death."

Others didn't know why Gu Ruo asked this, but Xiao Chengfeng's heart moved slightly, and he asked, "Ah Ruo, what did you find?"

Gu Ruo nodded to him, hesitated for a moment and said, "I just took a look at the wound, it was a laceration, I don't know what weapon the murderer used, the wound surface is not smooth, presumably it is not a sharp weapon..."

Li Dazui couldn't help interjecting after hearing the words: "The girl said all these things..."

"Big mouth!" Ximen Kong stopped Li Dazui, shook his head at him, and said to Gu Ruo, "Miss, continue."

Gu Ruo smiled at Li Dazui, and continued: "Just now I took a look at the abdominal cavity of the deceased, and found that her other organs were all there, except the liver was missing. I feel a little strange, and I don't know if Zuo has done an autopsy. Think about it and tell the adults."

Missing the liver?

The men present were all taken aback, Ximenkong said in surprise: "Wu Zuo didn't check the abdomen, unexpectedly the murderer took out the dead man's liver. But why did he take the dead man's liver?"

Gu Ruo was also silent. Thinking of Jack the Ripper, he raised his eyes and said, "I heard about a strange case before. The murderer also liked to open the Ripper, and he only killed prostitutes. And every time he committed a crime, he would eat the internal organs of the deceased. The methods are also very cruel."

"Then has the murderer been caught?" Gu Ruo shook her head slightly: "The murderer is very cunning, and the case has been going on for decades, but he has never been caught. The two cases are somewhat similar. The murderer killed the deceased in such a weird and cruel way, there should be his purpose. Like the murderer I mentioned before, he hates prostitutes, so why did the murderer in this case commit the crime?"

Seeing that they were all deep in thought, Gu Ruo simply expressed his thoughts: "The murderer struck very cleanly, so I don't know if this is the first time he has committed a crime. If it is not the first time, then has he been a victim before? Can we get in touch?"

Ximenkong clapped his hands and said: "Young lady is indeed very knowledgeable, Ximen admires it. In this way, I won't take up the girl's time. Thank you for cooperating with us, I'll take care of you."

"My lord, you don't have to be polite. I just hope that the murderer can be caught as soon as possible to comfort the souls of the dead. Since there is nothing wrong, the girl will leave."

Ximenkong smiled and said, "Okay, Chengfeng, you go see Miss Gu off."

Xiao Chengfeng looked at Gu Ruo, pursed his lips, and stopped talking.On the contrary, Gu Ruo nodded and smiled at him, with no alienation on his face.

When the two left the Yamen, Gu Ruo turned to him and said, "You still have something to do, so go in first. I'll just go back by myself."

"Ah Ruo, you..."

"What's wrong with me?"

Xiao Chengfeng clenched his fists, his peach blossom eyes sparkled, and he said aggrievedly: "You haven't seen me these two days."

Gu Ruo was a little speechless, and couldn't help laughing: "How can I see you if you don't come? You have official business, I can't go to Dali Temple, and delay your business."

I wish you would delay, but how can I say this.

Xiao Chengfeng smirked, and said in a low voice: "Then can I still go to you in the future?"

Gu Ruo was puzzled, and nodded straightly: "Of course, I just drew a few pictures of farm tools, come over when you are free, let's discuss it together."

"Okay!" Xiao Chengfeng grinned, the breath that was stuck in his throat was finally gone, "Then let me see, how about going to see you tomorrow?"

"It's all right, then I'll wait for you to come over."

After turning around, Xiao Chengfeng felt relaxed, his smile was like a flower, shining like a star.

Ah Ruo said wait for me, hehehe, as long as I keep working hard, I will win her heart one day.Thinking of Gu Ruo's refusal before, Xiao Chengfeng made a secret plan. He wanted to fight for his parents, and if he couldn't, he would ask his sister for help.Auntie loves her so much, as long as she speaks softer and has a thicker skin, it should be fine.

As for that willow, Xiao Chengfeng lowered his face - he turned to his cousin and said, whoever he likes to send, he really doesn't want to provoke such a goblin!

However, Xiao Chengfeng paused. If he didn't strive for great achievements, how could he be promoted to a higher rank, and how could he let his elder sister and the future emperor's nephew rely on him?I still want to go to Yangliu, I just hope that this matter can be finished soon.

Gu Ruo was walking on the road, thinking about the corpse.

She vaguely felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what it was.Why don't you wait and take another look, maybe you're thinking too much, but what if it's really a clue?

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" A man riding a horse kept yelling. The horse seemed to be frightened and galloped down the street uncontrollably.

When Gu Ruo came to his senses, he had already reached the middle of the road, and a horse rushed towards him.Gu Ruo looked at the manic horse and the anxious person immediately, and forgot to react for a while.She stood blankly in the middle of the road, about to be hit by a horse.

Just when passers-by were sweating for her, someone gave her a hand.Then Gu Ruo fell into a warm embrace, but bumped the man until he coughed.

As calm as Gu Ruo, thinking about the scene just now, I feel a little scared in my heart.She raised her head in a daze, and saw a pretty face, as bright as a peach and plum, with a radiant spirit, and she looked like a young man like jade.

But for some reason, when Gu Ruo looked at him, he always felt familiar.
