Chapter 50 Three Beauties 05(1/2)
Bo Ruoyou was woken up by the knock on the door. She opened her eyes and looked out the window. She saw that the sky was not yet bright, and she was a little dazed for a moment. There was nothing wrong on the boat for a day, and the sky was not yet bright, so how could anyone call her?
The knock on the door sounded again.
Bo Ruoyou was completely sleepy and hurriedly asked, "Who?"
"It's me." It's Huo Weilou's voice.
Bo Ruoyou was stunned and immediately got up to dress. If it were normal, she was about to wake up, so she quickly became energetic. Because she didn't know what happened, she put on her skirt and just tied her hair out. As soon as the door opened, Huo Weilou stood at the door, waiting for the sun. His face was calm, and Bo Ruoyou's heart was stuttering.
"Mr. Marquis, what happened?"
Huo Weilou turned around and looked at Bo Ruoyou. Her ink hair was loose and loose, scattered and hung on the side of her neck. There was still a bit of sleepy and lazy between her eyebrows and eyes, but her eyes were very clear. Huo Weilou's eyes swept past her unprepared and somewhat loose collar, and then moved her eyes away, saying in a deep voice: "Comb your hair and put on a cloak, prepare for an autopsy."
Bo Ruo's eyes opened slightly, "Assay on the autopsy?"
Huo Weilou looked at her again, "Li Yuchang is dead."
Bo Ruoyou frowned again while holding his hair back, and said, Who is Li Yuchang?
Huo Weilou saw her doubts, "Boss Yu."
It turned out that Boss Yu’s real name was Li Yuchang... Bo Ruoyou understood it, but he never expected that he would die. She tied her hair a few times, then picked up her cloak and put it on, and went out neatly.
Huo Weilou looked at her up and down, and then he turned around and left with satisfaction when he saw that Wubufu was right.
Eunuch Fu and Lu Ke were gone, only Huo Qinghong yawned and pushed open the door, "Brother, what's wrong?"
"It's dead."
He didn't explain much to Huo Qinghong, and took Bo Ruoyou downstairs first. When he arrived at the second floor, Bo Ruoyou saw that there were many people in the corridor on the second floor. There were especially many people in Yuchun's class, and most of the other passengers were awakened. At this moment, many people stood scattered on the railing and looked towards the stern deck.
Bo Ruoyou couldn't help but approach Huo Weilou, "Half, why is Boss Yu dead?"
Huo Weilou then walked and said, "Before the two incense sticks, the boatman who collected the anchors was tangled when he pulled the anchor upwards. He was supposed to be a miscellaneous item, but when he looked down, it was a corpse. The boatman was shocked and informed Shen Ya. Shen Ya asked him to salvage the body and recognized it as Li Yuchang."
As soon as the two of them went down to the first floor, they saw Eunuch Fu approaching him quickly, "Marty, Youyou, everyone in Yuchun's class knows it. They are crying at Boss Yu's body."
Bo Ruoyou thought that the people from Yuchun class whom I saw on the second floor just now were all those who couldn't name it, and Hui Niang and others were indeed missing.
Huo Weilou's phoenix eyes were slightly sunken, and he went to the stern deck without saying a word. Bo Ruoyou followed him. Before he could approach, he saw many people standing on the deck. Outside were everyone in Yuchun's class, Liu Huiniang and Yueniang were both there, as well as a few young men and four or five young women. Bo Ruoyou looked at it and seemed that they had all been on stage.
Lu Ke stood in the innermost with an embroidered robes, and Wu Yu was also beside Lu Ke, with Shen Ya and seven or eight boatmen on the side. Suddenly, people died, and everyone's expression was very bad.
Seeing that Huo Weilou arrived, everyone made way. When they arrived in front of him, Shen Ya couldn't help but step forward and said, "Young master, now that someone has died, when you arrive at the next ferry, I'm afraid I have to stop the boat and dock to report to the official. When the government issued a document and had an explanation, the boat could continue to move forward, otherwise-"
"There is no need to stop the boat and dock. This case is here to be tried." Huo Weilou interrupted him.
The word "Benhou" changed Chen Ya's expression slightly. Seeing this, Lu Ke said, "The current Marquis Wu Zhao in front of you is."
Chen Ya was stunned. Although he had already guessed that Huo Weilou's identity must be noble, he did not expect that he was Wu Zhaohou. He was stunned for a moment, and Chen Ya immediately raised his robe and knelt down, "I don't know Mount Tai below, I pay homage to the Marquis."
He knelt down, and the others reacted for a moment, and then fell to his knees. Everyone present knew the reputation of Wu Zhaohou, but no matter how he could not believe that he would be on the same boat with Wu Zhaohou one day.
Huo Weilou waved his hand, "No gift, let's talk about how he found his body. After the hall ended last night, everyone has been there. Have you seen him? Now I need to find out how he died in the river. If it is an accident, there is no need to investigate it. But if not, the people on the boat will not be able to escape."
Everyone had not yet come back to their senses from the shock of Huo Weilou's identity. When they heard his harsh words, their expressions changed slightly. Chen Ya repeatedly said, "If you have a marquis, you will feel at ease. It will not affect everyone's itinerary after finding out the cause of death. It is the best thing. If the marquis needs manpower, just give orders."
Huo Weilou said: "Instruct other passengers to not walk around randomly. Starting today, any non-essential activities on the ship will be cancelled. After the reasons for the deceased are investigated, they will be restored as usual."
It was not auspicious that a person's life was killed on the ship, and the unscrupulous passengers were also afraid of being implicated. Chen Ya was even more so. Hearing Huo Weilou's instructions, he immediately sent someone to pass the message.
Huo Weilou didn't have many embroidered clothes with him this time. He looked back and saw Liu Huiniang, who was wiping tears with red eyes, so he ordered Lu Ke: "Take them and ask, and see who had the last one who had met Li Yuchang last night."
Lu Ke left and said a few words to Liu Huiniang and others. Liu Huiniang wiped her tears and turned around and left the deck at the stern. The other Yuchun team members also looked stern.
Bo Ruoyou stood aside, and after they left, they went to see the corpse on the deck.
As soon as she approached, Chen Ya's confusing gaze fell on her. Then, he saw Bo Ruoyou squatting down, taking out an exquisite handguard from his sleeve and putting it on, and then touching the body.
Chen Ya took a breath of cold air.
Li Yuchang was wearing an indigo brocade robe he wore when he met yesterday. At this moment, he was soaked all over and his hair was scattered. Because he had soaked in the river for a long time, his exposed skin was wrinkled and dead white, which looked quite terrifying. She briefly explored Li Yuchang's head, face, mouth, nose, hands and feet, and had a preliminary judgment in her heart.
At this time, Huo Qinghong and Ming Guilan arrived late.
Huo Qinghong stopped before he got close to Li Yuchang, who was lying on the ground, "What's going on? Why is it so dead?"
Eunuch Fu smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "The prince should not come here. With the marquis and Youyou here, you and Mr. Ming are all good to rest--"
Huo Qinghong was naturally more taboo than others. He hesitated for a moment when he saw this and did not come to him.
At this time, Bo Ruoyou raised his head, "Marty, I preliminarily speculated that he was drowned, but if you want to check it carefully, you have to find a new place and have to test it."
Chen Ya had already heard that Bo Ruoyou was not only a doctor, but also a professional coroner. He blinked and was really shocked. Because he was so shocked that he never heard Huo Weilou's instructions.
"Young Master Chen?" Eunuch Fu shouted.
Chen Ya came to his senses and saw Huo Weilou looking at him with a dark look. He hurriedly said, "Ah? What are the instructions of the marquis?"
Huo Weilou's phoenix eyes were half narrow, "Look for an empty room."
The empty room was used to place the corpse. Chen Ya understood and immediately ordered the boatman to clean up a deck room near the deck. Huo Weilou ordered the embroidered clothes to carry the corpse in. Bo Ruoyou looked at Chen Ya again, "Young Master Chen, may you find an extremely sharp knive on the boat? The thinner and delicate the knives, the better."
This time, Huo Weilou and his team were light cars and the items they prepared earlier followed Lin Huai on the dry road. Therefore, Bo Ruoyou naturally asked Chen Ya for help. Chen Ya thought about it and immediately said: "Some, some, please ask the girl to find it later. Let's go here-"
After Chen Ya said that, he turned around and left, looking a little attentive.
Bo Ruoyou turned around and looked at the corpse on the ground. When he raised his eyes, he 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 abnormal on her body. She became more and more suspicious and puzzled. When she looked at Huo Weilou again, she saw him falling on the corpse. So she decided to make sure that Bo Ruoyou started to take the autopsy.
"The skin of the corpse is slightly white and has slightly wrinkled, and there are almost no corpse spots on the body. This is because when the deceased died, he was already in the water. The water flow caused the corpse to turn over, making the blood of the corpse difficult to deposit. Now the river water is cold, and the blood vessels shrink when they encounter cold, and the corpse spots will appear particularly slowly. There is a little mucus foam in the mouth and nose of the deceased, and there is also a slight swelling in the abdomen. The civilians speculate that he was drowned, and it should have fallen into the water in the middle of the night last night."
"There is no obvious external trauma in the body, but there are some minor abrasions on the cheeks and palms, and the abrasions are flakes and thin strips. It is common. If he falls from the hull into the river, it is possible to touch the hull or the sand and gravel in the river."
Because of the short time of death, there were still many clues left. Bo Ruoyou grabbed the deceased and looked carefully. "The bruised and bleeding land healed slightly, all of which were injured before his death. In addition, there were some things like moss in the cracks in his fingers, but I don't know what it was."
After a rough test, she began to remove Li Yuchang's brocade robe. Huo Qinghong stood at the door and couldn't help but retreat a little when he saw this scene. However, he saw the handguards wearing Bo Ruoyou's hand.
He tutted his mouth and said to Ming Guilan: "Brother gave her this item, but she would use it for the best use. I remember when Xiliang Kingdom paid tribute, there were several magical treasures sent with this guard. Did the eldest brother give him all the tributes now? Then he was so generous."
Ming Guilan laughed, "If the prince can also take a mortal examination like Miss Bo, the marquis will also reward you."
Huo Qinghong trembled, "Then I would rather not!"
As he said that, he smiled mysteriously, "When I return to Beijing, I will ask my elder brother for other good things. Only the elder brother can give you face and ask His Majesty to take them away. My elder brother can even reward Youyou, so he won't give me any more."
Ming Guilan bent his lips and said, "That's not necessarily the case. The marquis is clear about his private affairs. You can't help the marquis to do the job."
Huo Qinghong looked resentful, but after thinking about it carefully, it was indeed the case, and he gave up with a bitter face.
Bo Ruoyou in the room naturally had no time to listen to the chat outside. Now her mood was on the corpse, and she had become more focused and serious. After she took off her clothes, Bo Ruoyou carefully checked the outer robe at Tianguangzai at the door. Soon, she noticed several reddish-brown stains on the outer robe. She compared the stains with the stains in the cracks in Li Yuchang's nails. As expected, Bo Ruoyou had an idea in her heart after pondering for a moment.
At this time, Chen Ya took a very small dagger to the door, "This girl, do you think this knife is good? This is the knife we prepared for diners to eat fresh fish..."
Bo Ruoyou looked up and saw a lit up slightly, "It's available, thank you."
After taking the dagger, Bo Ruoyou felt a little relieved in his heart, but he still looked at the robe in his hand. Chen Ya saw that only a thin shirt was left on Li Yuchang's body. He felt it was a bit unlucky, and he thought it was very surprising that a little girl like Bo Ruoyou could have a mortal examination. He said gently: "If there are any other needs, please give me instructions."
Bo Ruoyou responded well, and Chen Ya stepped out. When Eunuch Fu saw it, he said, "This young master of the Shen family is versatile and handsome, and he is also a pleasing person."
Bo Ruoyou only thought that Eunuch Fu was talking to him, so he responded casually without raising his head, "That's true."
Huo Weilou was asking the embroidered emblem to search the building ship. When he heard this, he couldn't help but look back at Bo Ruoyou. His eyes were dark and unexplained. He only heard the embroidered emblem half of the order looked at him in confusion, and he didn't dare to ask. After waiting for a while, Huo Weilou continued: "Especially, everyone in the Yuchun class did what they did last night, and they had to ask one by one."
The embroidered clothes envoy took the order and Huo Weilou was about to lift his foot out, but Bo Ruoyou said, "Marty, there are some traces on Li Yuchang's robe. The girl guessed that it was touched when she fell off the stairs."
Huo Weilou looked at her with a fixed eye, and Bo Ruoyou said, "The boat is very big. I don't know where Li Yuchang fell into the water. However, the girl saw that there were such stains on his fingers and robes. I thought that he had mostly stained it when he fell off the boat. This thing looked like a moss stain, and it also looked like a rust stain. But the girl remembered that when she boarded the boat, there were some green moss stains on the hull near the shore, which was different from this stain."
The boat stops for half a month or even more than half a month. The hull is made of hardwood, and it will easily grow some moss after drinking water for a long time. But with the memory of the hull, I remember that the moss on the hull is not like this.
Huo Weilou understood, and he also squatted down in front of Bo Ruoyou. After a closer look, he knew that there were many stains on his robe. He was about to get up, but he felt that both of them were squatting down, and they were very close in an instant. He could even see her clear eyelashes. Huo Weilou did not move for a moment. Bo Ruoyou was about to lean over but took the remaining inner shirt on the body, but saw him looking at him steadily. She was a little confused, "Marty, what's wrong?"
Before Huo Weilou could speak, he picked up the robe on the ground and got up and went out.
Bo Ruoyou was stunned and remembered the strange behavior of Huo Weilou last night. She was a little confused and looked at Eunuch Fu beside her, "Dude, is the Marquis a little weird these two days?"
Eunuch Fu thought that Huo Weilou’s weirdness was no longer the same place, but in front of Bo Ruoyou, he could not seriously say that he suspected Huo Weilou had thought about her, so he had to smile and said, “This is how the Marquis is, sometimes his temper is unpredictable.”
Bo Ruoyou had felt this for a long time, and sighed and suppressed the thought for the time being. When her eyes fell on the corpse, she couldn't think of anything else in her mind. She first carefully checked her body surface and then began to examine it.
If the deceased dies because of drowning, it is very necessary to examine it. Bo Ruo calms down and cuts down along the deceased's thoracic spine.
The river wind was howling on the deck, and at this moment, the vast fog on the river surface had just dissipated. Huo Weilou stood at the bow of the boat, and Jiang Feng raised his black robe. While he asked the embroidered clothes to search the side of the boat, he was a little distracted. Not to mention that Eunuch Fu would think he was strange, even he felt very strange.
Not long after, an embroidered wardrobe came over with a boatman, "Mr. Marquis, have you discovered it."
The shipmaster who was brought was in his thirties and was a helper in the kitchen on the boat. He looked at the stains on Li Yuchang's robe and said, "Mr. Qi, this stain is most likely only found in the direction of the stern of the boat, close to the kitchen. After cooking in the kitchen, the water is often poured directly into the river water. After a while, the stains that grow under the side of the boat are a little different."
Huo Weilou's expression condensed, "Leading the way--"
The boatman led the way and quickly returned to the stern along the corridor outside the building. Most of the boats were kitchen and utility rooms and boatmen's residences. There were few passengers coming here from time to time. As soon as he approached, Huo Weilou really saw some dark brown stains on the hull.
The boatman's way, "It's here. It's about two feet wide, and it's all covered with such stains."
These stains have been born over the years. Huo Weilou first leaned over to see where the hull drifted, and then suddenly turned his eyes to look up on the second floor, "Where is the second floor?"
An embroidered man said, "Mr. Marquis, here is the building on the west side of the second floor."
Huo Weilou immediately came to the west of the second floor.
Unlike the east platform where the stage was built, the west platform was not big. At this moment, a lot of canvas masts and other debris were piled up against the fence. Huo Wei came up and walked to the side close to the kitchen on the first floor. There were a lot of masts and hemp ropes piled under the fence, and a lot of dust fell on it. Maybe it hadn't been used for a long time. Huo Wei's house looked around and said, "Call Shen Yalai."
Shen Ya came very quickly, and as soon as he came up, Huo Weilou said, "Are these things piled up here on weekdays?"
Shen Ya nodded, "The place here is not big, and it is on the stern of the boat. No one comes on weekdays. These are masts replaced two months ago, and some things that are not available on weekdays. The first floor is a little tide and it is almost impossible to pile it up, so I pile it up here."
To be continued...
