201,201 Doubtful(2/2)

of cruelty.

Zhan Zhao frowned and looked at the closed double-glazed window... With such a closed structure, in addition to being quiet, people outside the house could not hear the sounds inside, even if the deceased he killed called for help or screamed.

You can't hear it from outside.

Zhan Zhao also noticed that there was no kitchen in the small building upstairs and downstairs, and there were very few traces of life. It seemed that the Qian boss did not rent this building for living, but it was just a place for him to commit crimes.

Are you killing so many people just to get eyes? There are so many corpses in mass graves, why don’t you just dig them up if they don’t mind them? Even if you bribe the government officials or the executioners who carry out the death penalty, there are many ways to keep eyes, so why kill people?

Is it just to make the altar on the second floor that you spend so much time and effort? What is it for? Witchcraft?

Compared to Zhan Zhao, Gongsun's "workload" on the second floor is much greater.

Mr. Gongsun first drew the altar in detail with pen and paper, and then dismantled the altar piece by piece with his own hands. He preserved everything, put it in a box and took it back to the Yamen, especially the two wooden carvings.

Mr. Gongsun, Mr. Bao and Mr. Qin are all well-educated and knowledgeable people, but none of them knew what kind of sacrifice this was, and the two wooden carvings with chicken bodies and human heads were even unheard of.

Gongsun picked up the small copper stand in the middle and thought about it.

Zhao Pu asked, "What's wrong?"

"There may be something on this table." Gongsun was not sure, so he put the table into a box and asked the government officials to take it away.

Finally, all the suspicious items on the second floor were cleared. Everyone avoided the hole in the middle of the floor, opened the cabinet door, and carefully moved out the headless skeleton.

After opening the cabinet, everyone discovered that the body was tied up in chains and shaped like a rice dumpling. It was wearing gray clothes and had a large blood stain on its chest.

Gongsun stared at the corpse lying flat in a daze. Downstairs, Zhe Ying helped bring up the head and placed it on the cavity of the corpse.

Gongsun was a little puzzled, "It's strange, why is there so much blood? This blood doesn't seem to belong to the deceased himself."

Zhan Zhao also came down from upstairs. When he saw the body, he said there were many bloody clothes in the cabinet upstairs.

Gongsun ran upstairs and took a look around. When he came down, he frowned even more. "Everyone drowns, and the eyes must be removed completely. It is best to do it after the person is dead and the amount of bleeding will not be so much."

Damn, what's going on with the blood on your chest?"

Mr. Bao also frowned - so far this case is full of weirdness.

Zhan Zhao asked Master Qin, "Sir, did the corpse floating in the West Lake have any external injuries?"

Lord Qin shook his head, "No, they were all drowned."

Gongsun touched his chin and said to himself, "Could it be human blood?"

Zhan Zhao studied the clothes and shoes of the deceased. Judging from the body shape, "Boss Qian" was thin.

Magistrate Qin also felt strange, "Is it possible that the murderer was very skilled in martial arts? The deceased were all young and strong men, and it was not easy to subdue them."

Gongsun inspected the body and concluded, "The deceased did not know martial arts."

Zhan Zhao asked the policeman to call Butler Li who had been waiting downstairs.

Old Li Tou looked very anxious.

Zhan Zhao asked him two questions.

"How are you sure that the deceased is Boss Qian's? How can you tell me that you have never seen him before?"

The butler pointed to his nose and said, "Boss Qian's nose is a little crooked, so it's easier to recognize him."

Zhan Zhao looked at Gongsun, and the gentleman raised his eyebrows slightly - which was a good reason.

Zhan Zhao then asked, "Why are there so many changes on the second floor and there are still bloody clothes in the cabinets upstairs, but your people didn't notice it?"

Butler Li said that this small building is not a big deal among his family's many properties, and they don't care too much. In fact, the five-year lease has just expired. They just sent someone to take a look before they decided to sell the place.

Mr. Bao and Mr. Qin both frowned. This housekeeper is very old and refuses to say anything now. He is just trying to shirk blame and avoid suspicion.

Zhan Zhao asked who was checking this building. Butler Li said that he was not sure. It was probably just a boy. He might not have even gone to the third floor, but just walked around the first floor and left.

Gongsun and Zhan Zhao both frowned - saying it means not saying it.

Mr. Qin did not let the housekeeper go, and asked the yamen to take him directly to the yamen to record a detailed evidence. On the other hand, he sent the yamen to Li Mansion and took Li Chengfeng and everyone else to this small building.

People who had contact with Boss Qian went to the Yamen to ask questions.

After that, Mr. Bao and Mr. Qin went back to the Yamen to ask questions. Lin Yehuo took the four children back to the other courtyard first. Zhao Pu and Bai Yutang were waiting at the snack shop.

It wasn't until dark that Zhan Zhao and Gongsun finally completed a thorough search of the entire small building and walked out.

Both Bai Yutang and Zhao Pu felt a little distressed - it was finally over, okay, it had been a whole afternoon!

The Ninth Prince was dissatisfied - Is this Yamen competent? Why is it more tiring to be a slave than to be a military advisor in the military camp?

The fifth master is also very dissatisfied - this yamen is simply buying people's lives. It's too shameful to get such a small salary after being so busy!
