The Delicate Lady Coroner

Bo Ruoyou was awakened by the knock on the door. She opened her eyes and looked out the window. She saw that the sky was not bright yet, and she was in a trance. There was nothing on the boat for a few days, and the sky was not bright yet. How could anyone call her ?

The knock on the door rang again.

Bo Ruoyou was completely drowsy, and hurriedly asked, "Who?"

"It's me." It was the voice of Huo Weilou.

Bo Ruoyou was taken aback, and immediately got up and put on clothes. If it were normal, she would have woke up soon, so she soon regained her energy. Because she didn’t know what was going on, she put on her skirt and only a simple bunch of hair. Then walked out. As soon as the door opened, Huo Weilou stood at the door, covering the sky and waiting. His face was dark, and he immediately looked at Bo Ruoyou's heart.

"Master Hou, what's the matter?"

Huo Weilou turned and looked at Bo Ruoyou. Her hair was loose and loose, and a small half hung on the side of her neck. Her eyebrows and eyes were still a little lazy, but her eyes were extremely clear. Some loose neckline swept past, and then looked away, and said solemnly: "Comb your hair and put on a cloak, ready for an autopsy."

Bo Ruoyou's eyes opened slightly, "A post-mortem?"

Huo Weilou looked at her again, "Li Yuchang is dead."

Bo Ruoyou frowned while pulling her hair back again. Who is Li Yuchang?

Huo Weilou saw her doubts, "Boss Jade."

It turned out that Bo Ruoyou's real name was Li Yuchang...Bo Ruoyou understood it, but never expected that he would die. She pulled her hair a few times, then copied the cloak and put it on, and went out neatly.

Huo Wei glanced at her up and downstairs, and then turned around with satisfaction when he saw everything.

Father Fu and Lu Ke were gone, only Huo Qinghong yawned and opened the door, "Big Brother, what's wrong?"

"It's dead."

He didn't explain much to Huo Qinghong. First, he took Bo Ruoyou downstairs. When he reached the second floor, Bo Ruoyou saw that the entire corridor on the second floor was crowded with many people, especially the Yuchun class. Most of the other passengers were awakened. At this moment, many people stood scattered behind the railing and looked towards the stern deck.

Bo Ruoyou couldn't help taking a step closer to Huo Weilou, "Houlf, why did Boss Yu die?"

Huo Weilou said as he walked: "Before the two-pillar incense, the boatman who collected the anchor pulled up the anchor when the rope was entangled. What was supposed to be a debris, but when he looked down, it was a corpse. The boatman was shocked and notified Shen Ya. Shen Ya asked him to salvage the body before he recognized Li Yuchang."

As soon as the two came down to the first floor, they saw Father Fu rushing to greet him, "Master Hou, Youyou, everyone in the Yuchun class knows. At this moment, they are watching Boss Yu’s body crying."

Bo Ruoyou thought that the people in the Yuchun class that Shicai saw on the second floor were all unnamed, and Hui Niang and others were indeed nowhere to be seen.

Huo Weilou's phoenix eyes sank slightly, and he walked to the stern deck without saying a word. Bo Ruoyou followed him. Before he approached, he saw many people standing on the deck, the Yuchun class on the outside. Both Liu Huiniang and Yueniang were there. There were also a few young men and four or five young women who looked like niches. Bo Ruoyou looked at it and seemed to have been on stage.

Lu Ke was standing in the innermost with the embroidered clothes envoy, Wu Yu was also beside Lu Ke, and Shen Ya and seven or eight boatmen were on the side. Suddenly, their lives were killed, and everyone's expressions were very bad.

Seeing that Huo Wei Tower had arrived, everyone gave way. When they were there, Shen Ya couldn't help but step forward and said, "My son, now that life has been lost, when he arrives at the next ferry, I'm afraid I will have to stop the ship and report to the officer. Now, when the government issues a document and there is a saying, the ship can continue to move forward, otherwise—"

"There is no need to dock the ship, the case is here for trial." Huo Weilou interrupted him.

The word "benhou" changed Shen Ya's expression slightly, and Luke said upon seeing this: "The present Wu Zhaohou is in front of you."

Shen Ya was stunned. Although he had already guessed that Huo Weilou's identity must be prominent, he did not expect that he turned out to be Wu Zhaohou. After a moment of stunned, Shen Ya immediately knelt down and knelt down.

He knelt down, and the others reacted for a moment, and then fell to their knees. Everyone present did not know the fame of Wu Zhaohou, but in any case could not believe that one day he would be on the same boat with Wu Zhaohou.

Huo Weilou waved his hand, "Don't give me a gift, and let me talk about how he found his body. After the meeting last night, where everyone had been, I have seen him before, and now I need to find out how he got here. If Jiang died in an accident, there is no need to go into it, but if not, no one on the boat can escape the relationship."

Everyone has not yet recovered from the shock at Huo Weilou’s identity. Hearing his stern words, their expressions have changed slightly. It’s great that it doesn’t affect everyone’s itinerary. If Master Hou needs manpower, just order it."

Huo Weilou said: "Tell the other passengers not to move around randomly. Starting today, any non-essential activities on the ship will be cancelled, and the deceased will be checked out before returning to normal."

The life on the boat was unlucky, and the unserved boat passengers were also afraid of being implicated. Shen Ya was even more so. Hearing this order from Huo Weilou, he immediately sent someone to spread the word.

Huo Weilou didn’t have many embroidered ambassadors this time. He looked back and saw Liu Huiniang with red eyes wiping tears. So he told Luke: "Take a few of them to check and see who was last night. The last one saw Li Yuchang."

Lu Ke went there, and after speaking with Liu Huiniang, Liu Huiniang wiped her tears and left the deck at the stern step by step. The other members of the Yuchun class also looked sad.

Bo Ruoyou stood by and waited for them to leave before looking at the corpses on the deck.

As soon as she approached, Shen Ya's puzzled gaze fell on her. Then, he saw Bo Ruoyou squat down, took out the exquisite handguard from his sleeve and put it on, and then went to touch the corpse.

Shen Ya took a breath.

Li Yuchang is still wearing the indigo brocade robe that he wore when he was face-to-face yesterday. At this moment, he was drenched and his temples were scattered, and because he had been soaking in the river for a long time, his bare skin was wrinkled and white. Looks quite scary. She briefly probed Li Yuchang's head, face, nose, hands and feet, and she had a preliminary judgment in her heart.

At this time, Huo Qinghong and Ming Guilan arrived late.

Huo Qinghong looked at Li Yuchang who was lying on the ground and stopped before he even approached, "What's the matter, how can I die?"

Father Fu smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "Sir, don't come here. With Lord Hou and Youyou, you and Lord Ming are good to have a rest."

Huo Qinghong was naturally more taboo than others, and he hesitated for a moment when he saw it, but did not come to him.

At this time, Bo Ruoyou raised his head, "Master Hou, it is preliminarily speculated that he was drowned, but if you want to check it more carefully, you have to find a new place and have to undergo an autopsy."

At this time, Shen Ya had already heard it. Bo Ruoyou was not only a doctor, but also a professional writer. He blinked and was really shocked, because he was so shocked that he never heard Huo Weilou's instructions.

"Shen Gongzi?" Fu Gong Gong shouted.

Shen Ya returned to his senses, and saw Huo Weilou looking at him darkly, and he hurriedly said, "Ah? What's Hou Ye's instructions?"

Huo Weilou's phoenix eyes were half narrow, "Look for an empty room."

The empty room was used to place the corpse. Shen Ya understood that he immediately ordered the boatman to clean out a utility room near the deck. Huo Weilou ordered the embroiderer to carry the corpse in, and Bo Ruoyou looked at Shen Ya again. , "Shen Gongzi, may I find extremely sharp knives on board? The thinner the knives, the better."

This time, the Huowei Building and his party were light-driven, and the utensils they had prepared earlier followed Lin Huai on a dry road, so Bo Ruoyou naturally asked Shen Ya for help. Shen Ya thought about it, and immediately said, "Some, some, please wait, girl. Go here and find—"

Shen Ya turned around after speaking, but looked a little attentive.

Bo Ruoyou turned around to look at the corpse lying on the ground. She raised her eyes, but saw Huo Weilou looking at her with a heavy gaze. She was a little confused. She looked down at herself, but she didn't feel anything unusual about her. He became more suspicious and puzzled. When he looked at the Huo Wei Tower again, he saw that his eyes were on the corpse again, so Bo Ruoyou started an autopsy.

"The skin of the corpse is slightly whitish and slightly wrinkled, and the corpse spots are almost invisible. This is because when the deceased died, he was already in the water. The bloodstream shrinks in response to the cold, and the appearance of corpse spots is particularly slow. Moreover, there is a little mucus foam in the mouth and nose of the deceased, and a slight bulge in the abdomen.

"There is no obvious trauma to the corpse, but cheeks, palms, some slight abrasions, and the abrasions are in thin strips, which are common. If he falls from the hull into the river, he touches the hull or the sand in the river. possible."

Because the time of his death was not long, there were still many clues left. Bo Ruoyou took the deceased’s hands and looked at it carefully. “The bruises and bleeding places are somewhat healed. They are all injuries during his lifetime. In addition, there is something like moss in the fingers. The same thing, I don’t know what it is."

She took a rough look, and then began to untie Li Yuchang's brocade robe. Huo Qinghong stood at the door. He couldn't help stepping back when he saw this scene. However, he saw that Bo Ruoyou was wearing his hand again. Handguards.

He slurped his mouth and said to Ming Guilan: "Big Brother gave this thing to her, but he made the best use of it. I remember that when Xiliang Kingdom paid tribute, there were a few things that were sent with this handguard. Divine treasures, has the eldest brother given all the tributes now? Then he is so generous."

Ming Guilan laughed, "If the son can do an autopsy like a girl, Hou Ye will also reward you."

Huo Qinghong shook, "Then I would rather not!"

When he said that, he smiled inexplicably, "When I return to Beijing, I will ask my eldest brother for some other good things. These tributes, only the elder brother can make a face-to-face with your majesty, and the eldest brother can even give you a reward. You won’t stop giving it to me."

Ming Guilan curled his lips and said: "That's not necessarily true. You can't help Master Hou with errands."

Huo Qinghong looked upset, but when he thought about it carefully, it was indeed the truth, and for a while, he retreated with a bitter expression.

In the room, Bo Ruoyou naturally didn’t want to listen to the chatter outside. Now her mind is all on the corpse, she has changed her mind and seriousness again. When she takes off her clothes, Bo Ruoyou carefully examines Tian Guangzi at the door. After picking up this outer robe, she soon noticed several reddish brown stains on the outer robe. She compared this stain with the stains in Li Yuchang's nails, and it was exactly the same, a little thoughtful and thin. I have an idea in my mind.

At this time, Shen Ya took a very compact dagger to the door, "This girl, do you think this knife can be done? This is the knife we ​​prepared for diners to eat fresh fish..."

Bo Ruoyou raised his eyes, and the bottom of his eyes lit up slightly, "Available, thank you."

After taking the short dagger, Bo Ruoyou felt a little calm in his heart, but he placed it aside and looked at the robe in his hand. Shen Ya saw that there was only one thin inner shirt left on Li Yuchang's corpse. It is very surprising that such a little girl would have an autopsy, so he gently said: "If there are other needs, please ask the girl."

When Bo Ruoyou responded well, Shen Ya retired. Father Fu saw him and said, "This young son of the Shen family is exquisite and exquisite in the world, and he is also beautiful, but he is also a pleasing figure."

Bo Ruoyou only thought that Father Fu was talking to him, so he replied casually without looking up, "It's true."

Huo Wei Louben was instructing the embroiderer to search the building. Hearing this, he couldn't help but look back at Bo Ruoyou. His eyes were dull, and some unexplainable unhappiness was included, but he only heard the instructions. Half of the embroidered clothes looked at him puzzled, and didn't dare to ask. After waiting for a while, Huo Weilou continued, "Especially what everyone in the Yuchun class did last night, they have to inquire one by one."

The embroidered clothes envoy led away. Huo Weilou was about to lift his foot out, but Bo Ruoyou said, "Master Hou, there are some traces on Li Yuchang's robes. The folk girl guessed it was on the boat when he fell downstairs."

Huo Weilou looked at her fixedly, and said thinly, "The boat is huge, and I don’t know where Li Yuchang fell into the water. However, the people’s daughter sees such stains on the seams of his fingers and on his robes, expecting him Most of it was stained when it fell downstairs from the boat. This thing looked like moss stains or rust stains. But the girl remembered that when she boarded the ship, the hull near the shore was stained with some green moss. It's different from this stain."

The ship docked for half a month or even more than a month. The hull is made of hardwood. After a long draft, some moss is easy to grow. But Bo Ruoyou remembers that the moss on the hull is not this color.

Huo Weilou understood. He also squatted down in front of Bo Ruoyou and took a closer look. He saw that there were a lot of stains on his robes. He knew it well. He was about to get up, but he felt that both of them were squatting. , She was so close in an instant, he could even see her distinct eyelashes. Huo Wei Building didn't move for a while, Bo Ruoyou was about to lean and untied the left shirt on the corpse, but when he saw him looking at herself, she was a little puzzled, "Master Hou, what's wrong?"

Huo Weilou did not speak either, picked up the outer robe on the ground and got up and went out.

Bo Ruoyou was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered the weird behavior of Huo Wei Building last night. She was a little inexplicable, so she looked at Father Fu on the side, "Daddy, is Lord Hou a little weird these past few days?"

Fu Gong said that the weirdness of Huo Wei Building was no longer the same, but in front of Bo Ruoyou, he couldn’t really say that he suspected that Huo Wei Building was thinking about her, so he had to laugh, “That’s how Hou Ye is. Unpredictable temperament."

Bo Ruoyou felt this for a long time, and sighed and suppressed this thought temporarily. When her eyes fell on the corpse, she couldn't think of anything else in her mind. She checked the body surface carefully, and then stopped. Start the autopsy.

If the deceased died because of drowning, an autopsy would be necessary. Bo Ruo calmed down and cut along the thoracic spine of the deceased.

The river breeze on the deck howled, and at this moment, the fog above the river surface had just dispersed. Huo Wei Tower was standing on the bow, and the river breeze raised his black robe, while he ordered the embroidered clothing envoy to search the sides of the ship, but he was a little bit. Distracted. Mo said that Grandpa Fu would think he was weird, even he thought he was very weird.

Not long after, an embroiderer came over with a boatman and said, "Master Hou, there is a discovery."

The boatman who was brought in his thirties was a helper in the galley on the ship. He looked at the stain on Li Yuchang’s robes and said: "Knowing Lord Hou, this stain is most likely in the direction of the stern, near the galley. Yes. After cooking in the kitchen, the slops are often poured directly into the river water. After going back and forth, the stains under the ship's side are somewhat different."

Huo Weilou's expression condensed, "Lead the way--"

The boatman led the way and quickly returned to the stern along the corridor outside the ship. Most of the stern was the kitchen and utility room and the boatman’s residence. There were very few passengers coming here. As soon as he approached, the Huo Wei Building was indeed above the hull. Saw some dark brown stains.

Chuan Gongdao, "This is it. There is about two feet wide here, and there are such stains."

These stains have been produced for many years. Huo Weilou first leaned forward and looked at the draught of the hull, then suddenly turned his eyes to look up on the second floor, "Where is the second floor?"

An embroidered clothing envoy said, "Master Hou, the second floor is up here. It is the terrace on the west side of the second floor."

Huo Wei Building immediately came to the west platform of the second floor.

Unlike the east side platform where the stage was built, the west side platform is not big. At this moment, there are a lot of canvas masts and other debris piled up against the fence. Huo Wei came upstairs and walked to the side close to the kitchen on the first floor. There were a lot of masts and hemp ropes underneath, and a lot of dust fell on them. Maybe they haven't used them for a long time. Huo Weilou looked around, "Call Shen Ya."

Shen Ya came quickly, and as soon as he came up to Huo Wei Building, he said, "These things are piled here on weekdays?"

Shen Ya nodded, "This place is not big, and it's at the stern of the ship. No one comes here on weekdays. These are the masts that were replaced two months ago. There are also some things that are not needed on weekdays. There is some tide on the first floor, and It's almost impossible to pile up, so it's here."

It is true that hemp rope and other things are prone to damp, and this is not wrong, and these sundries have been piled up for two months, and I want to come and have nothing to do with Li Yuchang's death. However, when Huo Wei Tower stood on the hemp rope, there was a strange feeling. The hemp rope was stacked on the mast, forming a short steep slope. Up the steep slope, he could almost step out of the fence in one step.

Huo Weilou walked two steps along these debris, and Shen Ya immediately said when he saw this: "Hou Ye be careful, I will immediately find someone to clean it up here."

Standing at the highest point, Huo Weilou was almost one step away, and he could fall into the air with one foot, and if the hull of the ship swayed at this moment, he might also fall into the river. He is like this, not to mention Shen Ya, that is The embroiderers on the side looked a little nervous.

Huo Weilou frowned and said, "It has always been like this here?"

Shen Ya gave a wry smile, "I really don't know this, these things are stored here, and they are usually unattended on weekdays. Once the ship moves, it shakes, and it doesn't necessarily fall apart."

Huo Weilou leaned forward and glanced under the boat, then left and right, then pointed to a dusty bamboo broom standing against the corner of the wall, "Bring the broom."

The embroidered clothes made the movement agile and handed the broom to Huo Wei Building. Huo Wei Building took it and made the broom stand on the side of the ship. Then, he gently pushed it out and let go.

With a "puff", the broom fell straight down, rubbing the side of the hull and fell into the water. At this moment, the boat was moving slowly, and soon the broom floated up again, touching the hull for a while, and flipping with the current for a while.

Huo Weilou thought for a moment before steadily retreating.

Shen Ya squeezed his palm with sweat, "Master Hou, boss Yu fell from here?"

Huo Weilou nodded lightly, "It's very likely." Then he ordered, "Take a look at Li Yuchang's cabin."

Shen Ya led the way, and when he walked into the corridor, he couldn't help but said, "Master Hou thinks that Boss Yu was murdered? Will... he accidentally fell into the river?"

Huo Wei Lou said: "If there is no evidence that it was murdered, you can count yourself as falling into the river."

Shen Ya heaved a sigh of relief, "Actually, I feel that it is more likely that he fell. Last night, the two-fold drama was good. Boss Yu was happy. Later, he drank a lot of alcohol. Moreover, his house was away from the second floor deck. Somewhat close."

When the voice settled, Shen Ya stopped, "Master Hou, this is the place."

Huo Weilou looked at the door in front of him, and then at the location of the terrace. It was really close.

Li Yuchang’s cabin door was not closed. It opened with just a light push. The cabin is wider than the third floor, but it also has all the necessary items. Li Yuchang’s personal belongings are even more numerous, with stories written in the play. The play book, the pillow with intricate embroidery, the Four Treasures of the Study, and a few ancient legendary travel notes, more exquisite tea sets and two jade fracture fans.

Just looking at these personal things, you can also know that this person is used to extravagant enjoyment.

The items in the house are arranged neatly without any traces of fighting. The windows of Linjiang are also tightly closed. There is no abnormality found in the Huowei Building, and the playbook on the book case is still open. As if the master will come back soon after he left...

Everything was normal, but Li Yuchang was dead.

After inspecting Li Yuchang's house, Huo Weilou had just led people downstairs, and he saw Lu Ke greeted him, and when he met Lu Ke, he said, "Master Hou, the last person in the Yuchun class last night to see Boss Yu was Liu Huiniang."

Huo Weilou frowned, "Bring it here."

When Liu Huiniang was brought to the Huo Wei Tower, her eyes were already red and swollen. After learning the identity of Huo Wei Tower, she didn't dare to play cautiously as she did in front of Huo Qinghong. She only cried very submissively, "I sang last night. Well, the master later drank a few more glasses with Boss Shen. Later, the master was in high spirits and said that he wanted to talk to the folk girls. The master wrote a new drama book. He said that the script for the folk girls to sing will surely be popular all over the country. The lady was naturally happy, so she and the master were in the lady's room while having a drink while discussing the play. Later, she saw that the master was drunk, and the lady sent the master back first--"

"After sending the master back, the girl returned to her room. The girl thought that the master wanted the girl to sing this play in the capital. She was also very happy. When she returned to the room, the girl could not help but practice her voice. This practice is almost two hours."

The more Liu Huiniang talked, the more she cried, and her eyes were whimpering with tears. "The girls never thought of it. It was a farewell last night. From now on, I will never hear the master telling the girls..."

I felt pity when she was crying, but Huo Weilou looked at her indifferently, and just asked her, "When you sent Li Yuchang back, was anyone seen? Can someone testify for you?"

Liu Huiniang touched the corner of her eye, "Yes, what Lu Qing saw was the horn of our troupe."

"Passing on Lu Qing."

Huo Wei Lou made people hear Lu Qing. Just when I saw this person, Huo Wei Lou only felt familiar. He had been on stage when he wanted to come to the show, but they were all dressed up on stage, and he was not interested in the show. Naturally I can't remember it clearly.

Huo Weilou didn't care, and just asked, "Did you see when Liu Huiniang sent your class leader back last night?"

Lu Qingsheng was quite handsome, and when he heard the words, he said calmly: "In response to Lord Hou, the villain did see that Hui Niang sent him home."

Huo Weilou had no doubts about Lu Qing, but when this person opened his mouth, his brows wrinkled slightly, and he asked Lu Qing, "In the troupe, which Dan Jiaoer are you closest to?"
