Chapter 249: Headless Corpse by the Bed

The next day, when Gu Yi opened his eyes, he felt dizzy and had a dull pain in the back of his head.

There was a pungent wine smell in his nose, mixed with some other familiar smell, and he felt sore all over his body and had a splitting headache.

Suddenly a group of officers and soldiers broke into the door, and Cheng Dao, the judge of Kaifeng Mansion, walked in with a group of people.

Gu Yi endured the pain and sat up, only to notice that on the side of the bed where he was lying, there was a bloody corpse lying on the side of the wall.

What was even more frightening was that the corpse had no head.

And I happened to be sleeping next to this corpse!
Rao, Gu Yi followed his father to see many cases, and was used to seeing countless strange ways of death and corpses, but he had never seen such a scene of "intimate contact" with corpses.

Thinking that he might have spent the whole night with the corpse last night, Gu Yideng's scalp felt numb, and he stumbled to his feet quickly before looking at the dead in detail.

I saw a headless man lying on the bed embroidered with red peonies. His naked upper body was bloody and bloody from being poked by a sharp weapon.

A bloody sword fell to the ground, looking like a murder weapon.

Gu Yi's mind was in a mess, and he couldn't remember how he got upstairs after being drunk last night, and what happened to this corpse.

Cheng Dao and the others felt their scalps tingle when they saw this scene.

However, he quickly reacted, and the guards immediately detained Gu Yi as soon as he gave an order.

Cheng Daodao: "Mr. Gu, I'm sorry. The Kaifeng Mansion received a report this morning, saying that a bartender in Fan Lou did not return last night. Maybe he was victimized. Unexpectedly, it has something to do with you, Young Master."

"Wait a minute." Gu Yi wrinkled his aching forehead, "Judge Cheng, I definitely didn't kill anyone."

"It's not certain. You were drunk last night in Fanlou, and the bartender in Fanlou kindly sent you upstairs to rest, but you killed him. There are all witnesses and evidence, and you still want to deny it?"

"Master Cheng, Master Cheng."

A voice came from outside the door, followed by a man and a woman. The man was about forty years old, with a calm demeanor. The woman was very young, dressed in snow, with a cold face.

The man walked up to Cheng Dao, saluted respectfully, and then said slowly: "I wish you a long time, Mr. Cheng."

"You just want to wish for a long time?"

Cheng Dao sized up the middle-aged man in front of him, the biggest wealthy businessman in Kaifeng City, Zhu Kejiu, the boss behind Fan Lou, a famous man, but this was the first time he saw him today.

Zhu Kejiu nodded: "It is Zhu Kejiu, I heard people talking about the accident in the building, so I came here to check."

"That's just right, I would like to trouble Zhu Wai to go and identify the deceased. Is the deceased the bartender who was missing last night in the building?"

Zhu Kejiu only took a vague glance, then looked away in fright: "The clothes on his body are exactly the clothes of the bartender in Fan Lou."

On the contrary, the snow-clothed woman who followed behind him stepped forward, carefully inspected the headless dead body, and said slowly: "This person is not from Fanlou, let alone the bartender Wang Er."

"Who are you?" Cheng Dao asked.

"Oh, this is Zhu's beloved daughter, named Lingyi. She knows much more about the affairs in the building than I do."

"So that's the case, why did Miss Zhu say that this person is not the bartender in Fanlou?"

Zhu Lingyi said: "This man has a thick callus on the tiger's mouth on his right hand, which is caused by years of martial arts practice, and—"

Her eyes fell on the bloody neck, and after a while, "His coat was changed temporarily, and the second button is misplaced."

Hearing this, Cheng Dao also looked at the corpse.

Sure enough, as Zhu Lingyi said, the coat was worn carelessly, probably because the changer changed it in a hurry, and even buttoned the wrong buttons.
