Chapter 58 Guidance

Aunt Zhao has been dead for a few days, but she could still be heard talking to people yesterday. There are only two possibilities.

One is that Aunt Zhao died after talking to someone yesterday, but this is impossible. Even if some method can be used to speed up the decomposition of the body, it is not consistent with reality.

Yesterday Shen Qingyu asked what the pungent smell was, and the girl's answer was the ointment that Aunt Zhao used to apply. So the smell must have been there for a few days, but it was not obvious before.

Therefore this first possibility does not exist.

The second possibility is that there is someone else who has been talking to people in Aunt Zhao's voice these days. If this is the case, then Aunt Zhao's death is very suspicious.

If possible, Shen Qingyu wanted to know whether Aunt Zhao was strangled to death and then hanged, or whether she was really hanged directly.

This is very important, and she believes that as long as she finds an experienced operator, she can check it out.

When Shen Qingyu was deep in thought, the little maid who had been waiting next to her finally plucked up the courage and said, "If Miss Seven has no other instructions, I will leave."

She still had a lot of work to do, but she couldn't continue chatting with these seven girls.

Shen Qingyu finally asked a question that she already knew the answer to, but she still wanted to hear the little girl say it herself, "Mama Zhao is so cruel to the people below, do you hate her very much?"

The little girl glanced around wildly, "The slaves are all the girls in the eldest lady's yard. Aunt Zhao is the wet nurse of the eldest lady. She should take care of us, and she should be stricter so that the slaves will not make mistakes."

"

The scene was well-spoken, but probably only she knows what she thinks in her heart.

Shen Qingyu didn't ask any more questions and let the little girl leave.

Judging from the layout of the room, the table is facing the door. After pushing the door open and walking in front of the table, if you look to the left, you can see the bed. The beam where the body is hanging is between the bed and the table.

The maid in charge of delivering meals said that when delivering meals every day, she would knock on the door and get permission from Aunt Zhao before coming in, then directly put the meals on the table and leave.

This means that the body was hung up in the gap between the maids delivering food. In other words, after the death of Aunt Zhao, the body was first hidden and then hung up in the gap between last night and this morning.

.

There should be two strangulation marks on the neck of the corpse, one is the cause of death, and the other is caused by being hung after death.

However, it is too early to say this now. Only when the clear cause of death of Aunt Zhao is determined can further analysis be possible.

Shen Qingyu pointed outside and motioned for Ruyi to leave with her.

As soon as they went out, the guard immediately closed the door.

Shen Qingyu walked around to the other side of the room and stared intently at the small skylight.

Ruyi asked curiously: "What are you doing looking at this, girl? Could someone still get through this small window?"

Shen Qingyu was a little troubled, "But apart from this, there is no other place to go in and out?"

Ruyi looked like how could you say such a stupid thing, "Of course you go in and out through the door!"

"..." Shen Qingyu was choked and couldn't explain what she was thinking, so she had to change the topic, "We have been out for a long time, let's go back!"

Aunt Zhao died, and the reason is really hard to guess. Was it because the people she had bullied and mistreated wanted revenge, or was she unintentionally offending someone, or was she silenced after seeing something she shouldn't have seen?

It's all possible.

Of course, if she hanged herself, that is also a possibility.

Shen Qingyu thought about it as she walked, and found that there were too many things she couldn't understand. The more she thought about it, the more confused she became, and finally she stopped.

She found a blank piece of land and wrote and drew on it with stones, hoping to clarify the whole thing.

What is the connection between the wolf's cry, the sheep's cry, the dead mouse, and the death of Aunt Zhao?

There must be a connecting point that connects these seemingly unwanted things. What could it be?

"What are you doing squatting here?"

When Shen Qinglin came back from outside, he saw Shen Qingyu and Ruyi squatting together, and naturally asked.

But Shen Qinglin regretted it as soon as he said it. He said it as if he cared about her. The relationship between them was not such a friendly one. But after saying it, he couldn't take it back. Shen Qinglin had no choice but to bite the bullet and say it again.

Asked again, "What do you do?"

Shen Qingyu didn't know what kind of mental construction Shen Qinglin was doing in his heart, so he casually said: "Painting!"

Shen Qinglin looked at the "paintings" on the ground. They were indeed some strange animals. After laughing at Shen Qingyu's painting skills in his heart, he raised his feet and was about to leave.

These days, Shen Qinglin is always out and about. Shen Qingyu has not made a presence in front of him for many days. Seeing that he had just come back from outside, she probably didn't know what happened at home, so she walked up to him.

As if sharing a secret, he whispered: "Brother, Aunt Zhao hanged herself."

Aunt Zhao?

Shen Qinglin searched the person in his mind before he picked up the number and knew who Aunt Zhao was. Then he looked a little bad and said coldly: "If you hang yourself, hang yourself. It's worth your time to talk to her."

Let me say something."

Shen Qingyu originally wanted to talk to her brother about this strange thing, but seeing his disinterest, she wanted to make trouble.

With the intention of scaring the other party, she murmured: "She did hang herself. Everyone said she had been dead for several days, but I heard her talking to someone yesterday."

Shen Qinglin didn't show any fear, and said calmly: "You can still speak after being dead for several days. Is it either a ghost or someone pretending to be a ghost?"

His reaction was very boring, and Shen Qingyu naturally lost interest in continuing to chat with him, squatted down again, and responded: "Probably."

Although Shen Qinglin spent most of his time outside, he had also heard what happened at home. He went through everything in his mind and said: "The sound of wolves, sheep, and dead mice. The death of Aunt Zhao is...

Isn't it to confirm what the fortune teller said, that at least the family will be uneasy, and at worst, disaster will happen?"

He slightly increased his voice: "Someone wants the Shen family to go to the Shouxian Temple!"

Shouxian Temple? Why should we attract people to Shouxian Temple? Who should we attract to Shouxian Temple?

Shen Qingyu thought about Shen Qinglin's words carefully and felt that this possibility did exist, but would it go so far? Even to the extent of killing someone?

Who would believe the fortune teller and go to the Shouxian Temple, who would be the target? Or are there other possibilities?

Shen Qingyu couldn't figure it out, and the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.
