Chapter 516 Indirect

Li Qing, as Xue Gui's adjutant, generally doesn't need to deal with the case independently, she just needs to help Xue Gui do a good job.

Because Shouwang Mansion is the scene of the crime, from the time the news arrived, to the completion of the on-site investigation, and the subsequent disposal of the corpse, this set of procedures will also involve subsequent cleaning. leak.

The day yesterday was almost finished. Li Qing came to Shouwang Mansion this morning to make a final confirmation with the inner guards of Shouwang Mansion. After that, they will no longer be able to freely enter and leave the area where the crime occurred.

But what surprised Li Qing was that when she arrived at the side door behind Shouwang Mansion, she saw the figures of those Xuanqing guards. If she remembered correctly, they should have come here with the surname Shen before.

"What are they doing here?"

As soon as she entered the side door, Li Qing was approached by the yamen servant who had been guarding here, saying that she had something to report.

"What's up?"

"My lord, there seems to be something wrong with Xuan Qingwei's people."

"Huh?" Li Qing frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

"Yesterday, these Xuanqing guards wandered around the Shouwang Mansion, as if they were drawing the terrain of the streets around the Shouwang Mansion. Some people saw them writing pictures in their books. Today they even recorded carefully in the house where the crime happened, like is like"

"What are you talking about? Talk!"

"Yes, it seems to be recording the situation at the scene of the crime."

Li Qing shook her head subconsciously: "This is impossible."

Li Qing is no stranger to the record of the incident and the circumstances of the incident. Generally speaking, no matter whether it is the police of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, the servants of the local yamen, or Xuanqingwei, as long as the investigation and handling of the case, the situation of the incident will be recorded for later compilation. It can be used in case files.

But this case is so special, there is no need to make a "record of the circumstances of the incident" at all, right?

Could it be that these Xuanqing guards still want to truthfully record "the crime took place at the mansion of King Shou" in the dossier? ! As soon as Li Qing thought of this idea, she couldn't control it. Yesterday, she had already uploaded Hawkeye's initial dossier, and read the content compiled by Mr. Xue himself. In it, "a private mansion in the imperial city" was used to obscure the real crime location.

reason? With Li Qing's knowledge, she also knew that the matter involved Shou Wang, and it seemed to be related to a confidential case against Xuan Qingwei, and Qin Xiuyuan, who died, was also a fugitive from the local yamen who went to sea to arrest documents.

How did a fugitive escape and die in a prince's house? Does this person's death have anything to do with the prince? What is the reason for the prince to help a fugitive who is wanted by the sea arrest clerk?

A series of questions can bring Shou Wang directly to the heart of the case. And this was not what Hawkeye wanted. Even before taking over the case, Li Qing knew that her lord had specially received a note from Ma Shangshu, so she tried not to involve Shou Wang.

But now the people below are actually saying that Xuan Qingwei seems to be recording the situation where the crime happened? ! What are they trying to do?

Li Qing didn't listen or believe, she nodded to show that she knew, and then entered the courtyard, she really saw a few slightly familiar Xuan Qingwei writing and drawing with a notebook, and one of them was standing in the house At the door, it seemed that he was going to draw on the paper the memory of Qin Xiuyuan's death yesterday.

"Adjutant Wang, what are you busy with?" Li Qing walked over with a smile. However, she used a little careful thought, intentionally suppressing the sound of her footsteps, and restrained her aura, and did not speak until she was less than three feet away from Wang Yiming. His eyes quickly glanced over the things drawn by Wang Yiming, and at the same time he despised Wang Yiming's lack of vigilance.

"Huh? Detective Li, hurry up? What's the matter?" Wang Yiming really didn't notice the other party's approach, but he didn't realize it until he was three feet away. People can't see the clue.

In addition, she seemed to be frightened by Li Qing who was coming from behind, she shook her hand and quickly put away the paper she was drawing on. But the action did not escape Li Qing's eyes.

It's really drawing the layout of the scene where the case was found. This kind of thing is usually used when it is used to store files. Li Qing was very surprised, she felt that she must have discovered a terrible possibility: Xuan Qingwei was going to drag King Shou into the water!

"It's okay, just come and have a look. Are you here?"

"Make some on-site records. Captain Li, I was actually going to find you. Yesterday, Wu Zuo didn't check the body's abdomen very carefully. It was clear that Qin Xiuyuan had eaten in Shouwang's mansion, and he also ate a bowl of porridge before he died. , but it was not mentioned in the autopsy report made by Wu. I want to go to see the corpse again, I wonder if it is possible?"

"Huh? I was also there when the autopsy was performed. Qin Xiuyuan did have some food scraps in his stomach, but it was nothing special. You don't need to write it in, right?"

"Yes, otherwise, how can we rule out that Qin Xiuyuan's death was not caused by eating by mistake? Being unclear is not conducive to ruling out the suspicion of the Shou Palace." Wang Yiming looked business-like.

on purpose. Although it was the first time Master Shen praised him for his "good acting skills", he still understood the literal meaning. He is "acting" now, pretending to be unprepared and revealing some traces to Li Qing.

"Oh, you guys are doing the dossier? Are you writing the place where the crime happened in detail? Do you need our Hawkeye's help?"

Wang Yiming frowned, and said, "Don't bother Detective Li. With all due respect, my lord has rubbed the initial file of your Eagle Eye and showed it to me. It's too rough, so it's better for us to do it ourselves. In addition, about Corpse, please also ask Captain Li to send Master Xue a message to be flexible, we want to check it carefully, and we can make up for any omissions."

The words sounded very polite, but every single word did not conceal his distrust of the Major Case Division of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. And the source of it is the first volume of the case that I got yesterday. The vague and vague description of the case seemed to hit the rigid nerve of Wang Yiming, the "upright" Xuan Qingwei.

"That's it. Then I'll go back and tell Mr. Xue about it."

"Well, thank you, Captain Li, for being quick, and please hurry up. After all, the weather is too hot now. If the corpse is damaged after a long delay, it will be difficult to clean up."

"Okay, then I won't bother Adjutant Wang's work, go back and pass a message to Adjutant Wang first." Li Qing also lost the smile she had before, and it was natural for her to be despised by Xuan Qingwei who looked down on her in her heart. Uncomfortable, I wanted to fight back but I endured it.

Looking for a corner, Li Qing summoned an eagle-eyed yamen servant and said, "Go and tell Shouwang Mansion that the settlement cannot be settled today. When will I be able to settle the settlement here? I need to get Master Xue's warrant. In a word You are responsible for procrastinating."

"Ah? My lord, where are you going?"

"Going back to the yamen for business! Long-winded!"
