Chapter 312: The Dead Wife.

Yuan Ru didn't say the rest of the words, because he didn't dare to say it, let alone believe it.

But even if he didn't say it, everyone also understood that now that Mrs. Yuan's maid Xiaomei was killed in the stream, then Mrs. Yuan must be more than lucky.

But where is Mrs. Yuan?

Was it the same as Xiaomei, who was killed in the stream?

Bao Zheng asked the officials to continue fishing in the creek to see if they could get something.

While the officials were doing this, Hanarang conducted an examination on Xiaomei's body.

It was found that Xiaomei's body had no sword wounds, and there were no signs of poisoning, only a pinch mark on the neck, it was obvious that she was pinched at that time, but whether she was strangled or not, it must be verified separately.

Xiaomei's corpse has a flat lower abdomen, the flesh color is yellow but not white, the mouth and eyes are open, the hands are scattered, the hair is messy, the mouth, eyes, ears and nose are not drained, and the fingernails are very clean. ”

Hua Lang said yes, Bao Zheng had some doubts, and said: "How can you be sure that she was strangled to death and thrown into the river instead of being thrown into the river and drowned?" ”

Hua Lang smiled lightly, pointed to the corpse and said: "Brother Bao, please see, the deceased's lower abdomen is flat, which means that he did not drink much water, but if a person is drowned, his lower abdomen must be slightly distended, and the deceased's fingernails are very clean, and his hands are not clenched, so it can be seen that the deceased is not struggling in the water, if it is a living person, how can she not struggle?" ”

Saying this, everyone nodded in agreement, and in this way, they can deduce that there was once a murderer here, and the murderer killed Xiaomei, and then what? Will he kill Mrs. Yuan?

The servants were still fishing in the water, and because of the scorching heat of midsummer, they seemed to be comfortable in the water, but of course, they did not slack off in any way.

However, they searched for several hours, but there was no clue at all, and Hua Lang felt that it was not possible to wait like this, so he left a few officials to salvage in the water, while others followed them to other places to find clues.

The vicinity of the outskirts of the city was very vast, and it was not easy to find a person, and they had not been able to find a single clue about Madame Yuan from morning to evening, and when dusk came, they were already tired and hungry.

In the end, there was really no way, so they had to go back first to see if the officials in the city had any clues about Mrs. Yuan.

Back at the county office, they ate first, and after eating, the officials who had searched the city rushed back, but they looked unhappy, and it was obvious that they had not found any clues.

Everyone sat in the living room and looked at each other, but they couldn't say why, at this time, Fu Wei and Zhang Gonggong came with a group of subordinates, Bao Zheng and others hurriedly saluted, and then invited the two of them to sit down, after Fu Wei sat down, asked about today's case, Bao Zheng did not dare to conceal it, and told the truth again, Fu Wei listened, his face changed suddenly, and said: "Lord Bao, such a murder happened in your Tianchang County, how do you let this official protect you?" ”

Bao Zheng was stunned for a moment, then looked at Fu Wei with resolute eyes, and replied: "Master Fu's words are wrong, I Bao Zheng is worthy of the emperor of heaven and earth, and the people of Tianchang County. ”

Fu Wei had nothing to say about this remark, but Gonggong Zhang sat aside and snorted coldly: "Why haven't there been life cases in other counties, but you have a life case in Tianchang County, isn't it your relationship?" ”

Bao Zheng deliberately found fault with Gonggong Zhang, so he said-for-tat: "Gonggong Zhang's words make Bao Zheng incomprehensible, the four seas are big, it is not the king's land, my Tianchang County is also the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, Gonggong Zhang is saying that the emperor has no way to govern the world?" ”

Bao Zheng looked at Father-in-law Zhang with a pair of white and black eyes, which made Father-in-law Zhang speechless for a while, and Fu Wei, who was sitting on the side, had already seen Bao Zheng's sharp teeth, so he hurriedly persuaded: "Okay, okay, no one can predict the occurrence of the murder, but now that we are here for assessment, Lord Bao should solve the case as soon as possible. ”

Hearing this, Bao Zheng bowed his hand again and again, and said, "I will solve this case as soon as possible, Master Fu and Gonggong Zhang, please rest assured." ”

After Fu Wei and Zhang Gonggong asked some more questions, they left the county office, and after they left, Bao Zheng looked at Hua Lang and asked, "Brother Hua, do you think we should start from that door?" ”

Hua Lang held his chin in one hand and pondered, and after a long time, he said: "If you start with Xiaomei's death, the clues seem to be a little insufficient, because no one has seen how she was killed, and there are no clues left at the scene, so I think it is the right way to find Mrs. Yuan first, if Mrs. Yuan is not dead, maybe she can provide us with the truth about Xiaomei's killing, if Mrs. Yuan is unfortunately killed, we have to do another analysis." ”

Now, it has to be like this, but where do they find Mrs. Yuan?

There is no way to find out, so I have to wait, or see if Yuan Ru has any clues.

After saying nothing all night, early the next morning, as soon as Hua Lang and the others got up, Gongsun Ce hurriedly came, and after he rushed into the detective agency, he hurriedly said: "Mrs. Yuan's body has been found." ”

"Found it?" Hua Lang was shocked, this news came too suddenly.

"How did you find it?"

"Early this morning, a farmer came to report the case, saying that his wolf dog kept barking, and hugged back and forth, the farmer felt suspicious, so he ran with the wolf dog, and finally found a corpse in their village Tong Xiucai's house, the farmer came to report, according to his account, Yuan Ru said that it was her wife's touch, so Lord Bao rushed to Tong Xiucai's house with Yuan Ru, I came to call you."

As soon as they heard this, Hua Lang and the others didn't care about washing, so they hurriedly followed Gongsun Ce to the scene of the murder.

It was a very beautiful little village, with a stream of water passing in front of the village, but it was sparsely populated, so one family's house was far from the other, and if it weren't for the dog's sensitive nose, no one would have thought that there was a corpse in their neighbor's house.

Thinking of dogs, Hua Lang suddenly had a very bold idea, the world where he was before, there were police dogs, and it was very convenient for police dogs to find people to catch people, if he could train a few police dogs, if he was looking for someone in the future, he didn't have to be so troublesome, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he should have a few dogs.
