Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 715 Weird Murder Case

"This... what the lord said is true, but since they are a family, why did he kill the whole family? I really can't figure it out!" Han Qu said in a daze.

Li Canghai rubbed the center of his brows, this is what he couldn't understand, after a little thought, he said, "Who was the first to discover the corpse?"

"My lord, I'm the head of the workshop." Han Qu replied.

"Let him come in and answer." Li Canghai said.

A moment later, a man walked in.

Li Canghai glanced at him and asked, "Are you the head of this workshop?"

"Returning to the adults, the villains are." The head of the workshop replied with his head bowed.

Li Canghai nodded, and said, "I want to ask you, how did you find out that this family was killed?"

"Returning to my lord, the villain found out around Maoshi. Last night, the villain heard something going on in the old man's house, and thought there was a conflict in their house. So after getting up early in the morning, he planned to come to persuade him, but he knocked on the phone for a long time. There was no one coming at the door, so the villain looked through the crack of the door, but unexpectedly saw two corpses lying in the courtyard. The villain was frightened, so he hurriedly reported to the official." The owner of the workshop still looked a little Terrified.

Li Canghai touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and asked, "So you live next door?"

"Back to the adults, the villain lives next door."

"What did you hear last night?" Li Canghai asked.

"My lord, I only heard the sound of things breaking last night." The master replied.

"Is it just the sound of breaking things? Could it be that there is no shouting?" Li Canghai asked suspiciously.

The Fangzhu shook his head and said, "The villain didn't hear any shouts."

Li Canghai frowned when he heard this.

"My lord, what's the matter?" Han Qu asked cautiously.

"Strange, how could there be no screams at such a tragic scene?" Li Canghai said to himself.

Han Qu thought for a while, and said, "My lord, could it be that the old man covered their mouths when they killed someone, and that's why they couldn't make any sound?"

Li Canghai shook his head and said: "No, judging from the situation at the scene. The old white man killed the old woman first, then entered the side room, killed the young couple, and finally killed his grandson. Even if he can cover One person's mouth must never cover two people at the same time. Besides, his grandson has time to run to the courtyard, which means that they have time to shout. But the question is, why didn't they make a sound?"

After pondering for a while, Li Canghai asked the workshop owner: "Let me ask you, how is the relationship between the old man Bai's family?"

"My lord, the old man's family has always been harmonious, and there has never been any quarrel." The owner of the workshop replied.

"This is strange. Since they are very harmonious, why did the old man kill his family?" Han Qu asked suspiciously.

At this time, Wu Zuo had already checked the body.

Li Canghai walked over and asked Wu Zuo to report on the autopsy.

"My lord, these five corpses, except for the old man, were all killed by biting their throats. The fatal injuries were all on their necks. Apart from that, they had no other injuries on their bodies. It can be confirmed that the perpetrators were It's this old man." Wu made a report.

"What is the cause of this old man's death?" Li Canghai asked.

"My lord, there is no fatal injury on this old man, he seems to have died from exhaustion." Wu Zuo replied.

"Death from exhaustion?" Li Canghai was a little surprised.

Wu Zuo nodded: "This old man seems to have gone mad suddenly. After killing someone, he exhausted his strength and finally died of exhaustion."

"Besides this, are there other injuries?" Li Canghai asked with a frown.

"There is still a scratch on the back of the old man's right hand, which seems to be scratched by some kind of animal." Wu said.

Li Canghai rubbed the center of his brows, and told Wu Zuo to retreat temporarily.

"Master Han, send someone to investigate immediately, who saw old man Bai last night." Li Canghai ordered.

"I'll do it right now." Han Qu took the order and turned to leave.

Li Canghai looked at the several corpses lying side by side in the courtyard, and fell into deep thought.

The originally harmonious family suddenly encountered a catastrophe, and the murderer was actually the head of the family, which is really incomprehensible.

Judging from the situation at the scene, it seems that the old man Bai suddenly went crazy and lost his mind to make such a crazy move.

However, how crazy is it to be able to do anything to your loved ones?
What surprised Li Canghai the most was that the old man Bai's killing methods were simply weird.

There are many ways to kill people, but it is unimaginable that the old man killed by biting his throat.

An hour later, Han Qu came to report, saying that no one in the neighborhood had seen the old man Bai.

In addition, snowflakes began to fall in the sky again, so Li Canghai had no choice but to order the corpse to be sent to the morgue temporarily, while he returned to Dali Temple.

In the main hall of Dali Temple, Li Canghai propped his head with his left hand and kept turning the Langhao brush in his right hand, lost in thought.

The case of the old white man exterminating his family reveals strangeness everywhere.

Although the murderer was the old man Bai, and the old man Bai was also dead, but why the old man suddenly went crazy is something people can't figure out.

Soon another half day passed, Li Canghai was eating lunch, but Han Qu hurried in with two yamen servants.

"My lord, I have something to report! I hope you will forgive me for disturbing your meal!" Han Qu said.

Li Canghai put down the bowl and chopsticks, and said disapprovingly: "It's okay, what did Mr. Han find out?"

"My lord, these two people were on duty near Anlefang last night. They said they had seen old man Bai last night," Han Qu said.

Li Canghai looked at the two yamen servants, and asked, "You two met old man Bai last night? Tell me what happened."

"Yes, yes. When the younger two were watching the night last night, they saw the old man bring sauced meat home. The details are as follows."

Then, the two yamen servants described the process to Li Canghai.

Of course, they didn't say anything about the sauce meat in Old Man Bai's hands.

After listening to it, Li Canghai touched his chin and pondered: "So, old man Bai was pretty good at that time?"

"My lord, according to what I saw, there was nothing unusual about the old man at that time." The yamen servant surnamed Bian replied.

"You just said that the sauced meat in his hand was rewarded by his superiors? What does this old white man do for a living?" Li Canghai asked.

"My lord, the old man Bai is a handyman of the Huotou Army of Longwuwei, and he specializes in doing laundry and burning firewood for the Huotou Army." The yamen servant replied.

"Longwuwei?" Li Canghai frowned.

"My lord, what's the matter?" Han Qu asked.

Li Canghai rubbed the center of his brows, and said, "It's nothing, you guys retreat first."

"It's your lord." Several people saluted Li Canghai and retreated.

"Longwuwei, Longwuwei..." Li Canghai rubbed his chin and started talking to himself.

Suddenly, Li Canghai seemed to remember something, and hurriedly called Zhou Feiyan.
