Su Mufeng has met Zhang Tao several times. He is relatively introverted, does not like to interact with others, is not good at words, is good at autopsy investigation, has a good level, and is very serious and responsible.

Song Yue said in a deep voice: "According to the news, Zhang Wuzuo died in a ditch. It looked like he was drowned, but..."

"Do you think it's related to the Jinluan Guard?" After hearing this, Su Mufeng already understood what Song Yue meant, and said in a deep voice: "Did Zhang Zuozuo see the corpse this morning?"

"Yes." Song Yue nodded: "When the Jinluan Guards arrived, Zhang Wuzuo just arrived, but before the autopsy started, the Jinluan Guards took the body away."

"After they killed Li Erniu, I felt there was a problem, so I immediately sent people to protect Zhang Wuzuo. However, when I arrived at Zhang Wuzuo, I didn't see him, and the neighbors didn't know where he went."

"So I sent people to search for traces of Zhang Wuzuo, and his body was not found until just now."

"From what you said, Ye Huan and the others are indeed suspicious. After all, the timing is too coincidental." Su Mufeng nodded and said solemnly: "But there is no way to prove that this was indeed done by Jin Luanwei. In this way, let people protect Zhang Zuo first. The body, wait until I finish investigating this place before I go take a look."

"At the same time, please carefully recall, before they arrived, besides Li Erniu and Zhang Zuozuo, did anyone else see the body?"

"No more." Song Yue said with great certainty: "I recalled this issue carefully after Li Erniu's death. At that time, apart from Li Erniu and Zhang Wuzuo, there were only me and a few soldiers in the city guard. We were the only three people who entered this courtyard and saw the body."

"And I have already arranged for those soldiers. There will definitely not be any danger."

"That's good." Su Mufeng nodded and walked towards the yard where the body was found.

After Song Yue arranged the things Su Mufeng told him, he hurriedly followed.

Soon Su Mufeng and Song Yue passed through the door of Chunman Building and arrived at the small courtyard to the east of Chunman Building.

After saying hello to the soldiers at the door, Su Mufeng and Song Yue entered the small courtyard.

According to Song Yue, this place belonged to a scholar a few years ago. Later, the scholar went to Beijing to take the exam and never returned for many years, so the courtyard became empty.

Originally, Chunmanlou also wanted to annex this place, but he was worried that the owner of the yard would suddenly return and return to his hometown in rich clothes, so he could only put it on hold for the time being.

"When I asked Li Erniu before, Li Erniu said that although this courtyard has been put on hold, the door has always been locked and the courtyard door was closed." Song Yue said: "And this morning, the courtyard's But the courtyard door was open, so he thought the scholar had returned or a thief had broken in, so he came in to take a look."

"Unexpectedly, he found the body of the woman just after entering the hospital."

"Yes." Listening to Song Yue's words, Su Mufeng carefully observed the situation in the hospital.

The yard is not big, and the ground is covered with thick snow, pressing on the dead weeds. The footprints of Song Yue and others who came in before have been covered by the snow.

To the east of the yard is a row of side rooms, covered with cobwebs. It's obvious that no one has lived in them for a long time.

There is a stone table in the middle of the yard. Not far from the stone table is a well. There is a tree beside the well. The tree is not high, and there is a rope tied to the thickest branch.

There is no doubt that Princess Liuli died on this tree.

While advancing slowly on the snow, he carefully observed the situation in the courtyard.

People in this world are still lacking in on-site survey technology, so their awareness of on-site protection is also very low, and some damage has been done to the courtyard.

It can even be said that if it weren't for Song Yue, the damage on the scene might be even worse than it is now.

But some things have remained.

I walked to the tree and took a closer look. The tree was not very high. The branch with the rope hanging on it was more than two meters above the ground. The material of the rope looked more like a ribbon, and there was another one just under the tree. Overturned wooden bench.

"The circumstances of the woman's death were very strange." Song Yue whispered, "It was like committing suicide. No, or if she hadn't been naked, I would have thought she committed suicide."

"This is strange..." Su Mufeng narrowed his eyes slightly and squatted down to carefully observe the ground around him.

"It's indeed strange, so we think that the woman was killed and hung from it." Song Yue sighed: "Unfortunately, there was no autopsy, otherwise..."

"No, no, that's not what I meant when I said strange." Su Mufeng shook his head, stood up slowly, looked around and said, "When I was at the Chungui Inn just now, I saw the body of the woman. It's burnt black, but some things can still be seen."

"The woman is almost five feet (one meter seven) tall, and the branch is almost six feet (two meters) above the ground. Judging from the surrounding environment, traces, and the height of the rope and wooden bench, the woman should be Suicidal.”

As he said that, Su Mufeng suddenly walked towards a corner, where the shape of the snow was a little strange.

Su Mufeng reached out and grabbed some clothes, which looked like businessman's clothes, from the snow.

"Sure enough." Looking at the clothes in his hand, Su Mufeng nodded.

"Sir, you said the woman committed suicide?" Song Yue said in disbelief.

"Yes, it should be suicide." Su Mufeng nodded: "But precisely because of this, there are a lot of doubts here."

"Since it was suicide, the woman must have been conscious when she died." Su Mufeng said solemnly: "The reason for the suicide should be that her reputation was damaged and her innocence was tarnished."

"In that case, why did the woman commit suicide naked?"

"Maybe she didn't find the clothes? After all, it snowed this morning. It was very likely that the snow covered the clothes." Song Yue heard Su Mufeng's words and said doubtfully: "She can't leave here, so she can only die like that. ”

"If that's the case, what's on this?" Su Mufeng pointed to the "rope" tied to the tree: "If I read it correctly, this should be a belt."

As he said that, Su Mufeng threw the clothes in his hand to Song Yue: "And this clothes is only missing a belt."

"This..." Song Yue looked at the clothes carefully and had some doubts.

"Since the woman could find the belt, why couldn't she find these clothes? Did the person who violated the woman hide the clothes?" Su Mufeng continued: "If they were hidden, why did they wait until the woman died to find them? ?”

"You mean, the woman clearly saw the clothes but didn't wear them, and decided to hang herself naked here?" Song Yue scratched his head: "This, this is too strange."

"It's indeed strange." Su Mufeng nodded: "What's even more strange is that you said that Li Erniu came in after seeing the courtyard open in the morning."

"So, why didn't the murderer close the door? Was he afraid that no one would discover the body? Or was he afraid that the person who discovered the body would really think it was a suicide?"
