"According to the current situation, there are three suspects in the case." Shen Mo heard the problem of County Magistrate Lu, and he turned his fingers and said to County Magistrate Lu:

"These three are Wan Hesheng's ex-mates Zhao Liuer, Meng Xiaoyi, and this Hu Shang Monia."

"So the question you are talking about is very easy to explain," Shen Mo said, pointing to the naked body in the yard.

"Monia was originally a Hu man, and he had two other accomplices. If he wanted to make the illusion that Hu merchants were drinking in the house, he just wanted to teach Zhao Liuer and Meng Xiaoyi a few words of Persian and let them perform according to the script in the house!"

"All of them were drunk at that time, and the drunken words they said were originally vague. In addition, Apu was already scared by the corpse at that time, so it was actually not difficult to trick him into it."

This county magistrate Lu was also talented and was a top scholar among the literati in the Southern Song Dynasty. After hearing Shen Mo's explanation, he immediately nodded and understood.

"But the biggest mystery in this case has not been solved yet." After County Magistrate Lu found out what happened, he asked Shen Mo again.

"I know what you want to ask." Shen Mo nodded to County Magistrate Lu while looking at the autopsy.

"The biggest problem with this case lies in two key time points."

"When Apu walked out of the room and wanted to get rid of it, there were still four people in the room, and Alan was also inside, so he would not be wrong with this."

"But when he walked outside the yard, he immediately found Alan's body in the ditch!"

"It is precisely because of this that Apu is scared to death." Shen Mo then said to County Magistrate Lu: "In addition to this, there is a second important time point."

"That key node is: After Apu pulled Monia out of the yard, he immediately saw Monia's body outside the yard. At the same time, there were the bodies of five Hu Shangs, including himself!"

"These two points are the most difficult part of the whole case to explain. What happened at these two points in time? Apu saw the living and the dead almost at the same time between just a few breaths, between the distance between the inside and outside the hospital?"

"This is the most bizarre part of this case." Shen Mo sighed softly and said, "If this question cannot be answered, then no matter how many clues we found before, it will be useless!"

"You are right...but it doesn't matter!" Hearing this, County Magistrate Lu sighed, and then he patted Shen Mo's back.

"I believe you, you will be able to make all the twists and turns in this clearly!"

"The adults have high expectations, the villain is so nervous that he will never let him down..." Shen Mo wanted to have another bowl of misty soup, but was interrupted by Lu Yue with a smile.

"I've seen it clearly," County Magistrate Lu said with emotion: Captain Shen is a talented person. If you want to solve this case, you must be able to do so."

"This time, if we succeed in solving the case by chance, I, Lu Yue, have a chance to advance, and there will be a place to rely on you in the future."

"I am willing to serve the Lord!" Hearing the words of County Magistrate Lu, Shen Mo naturally did not hesitate and quickly expressed his loyalty: "There are many horses in this world, but not many Bo Le. If there were no master Jianba's subordinates, he would be just a small constable. I have the kindness of knowing each other, so Shen Mo would not die for him?"

"Haha!" County Magistrate Lu couldn't help but smile when he heard Shen Mo speak with great sternness. But he believed Shen Mo's statement in his heart.

"Mr. County Master...He's the head-sinking captain!"

While they were talking, the two coroners who had autopsy suddenly seemed to have discovered something. They hurriedly stood up to report to Shen Mo and County Magistrate Lu.

"Have you discovered it?" Shen Mo quickly got up and walked into the yard.

In the yard, the corpse had been stripped naked. Shen Mo looked down and saw that one of the deceased's arm had been lifted up and raised to the side of the head of the dead body. On the inside of the arm, several light blue characters were exposed.

"Is this... a tattoo?" Shen Mo was shocked and hurriedly lowered his head and watched carefully.

I saw that the tattoo was fine. It was first a pattern larger than the fingernail. It was a kite flying in the air, and a small bird was also grasping on its claws. The figures and postures of the kite and the bird were vividly tattooed.

There is a line of small characters below. Shen Mo carefully identified it and found that it reads: "In the past, my family was not poor, and I had to make friends with money and materials. Now I have lost my way to find a close friend, and I have no one in the mountains."

It's actually four lines of poetry!

After a brief thought, Shen Mo understood what the meaning of these verses was.

This poem translated into modern words: "In the past, when I was rich, I used all my money to make friends. But when I didn't have money, I found that all those friends were gone!" It's roughly what it means.

In ancient China, the Tang and Song dynasties, especially in the Song Dynasty, it was an era when tattoo culture was prevalent. The Water Margin, which tells the life of the Song Dynasty, focused on several tattooed heroes.

Among them, the nine-patterned dragon Shi Jin had nine dragons tattooed on his body, and Lu Zhishen was even more floral embroidery, hence the name "Flower Monk".

Another one is the prodigal son Yan Qing. When he was ordered by Song Jiang to make friends with Li Shishi, Li Shishi also used the excuse of looking at tattoos to trick Yan Qing into taking off his clothes and successfully defeated the prodigal son Yan Qing.

Even Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty at that time, Zhao Ji, tattooed a bird behind his neck. At that time, a tattoo enthusiast club "Jinti Society" appeared in Bianliang. These people were bare-barred and showed off their tattoos on the street. Now when they think about it, the scene at that time must have a sense of a young and dandy scene.

"Ha!" Shen Mo couldn't help but smile as he looked at these four lines of poetry.

The color of this tattoo is mottled and dull, and it has been a long time since the tattoo was covered. In addition, there are poems written in Chinese characters on it, which means that this person is not a Hu Shang at all, but a Song Dynasty man!

"Lu Qiang!" Shen Mo greeted him and saw Lu Qiang running over immediately.

"Call Zhao Liuer and Meng Xiaoyi's family over and let them identify the tattoo... no!"

When Shen Mo said this, he suddenly seemed to think of something. His expression changed and he immediately overturned what he had said before.

"Call Wan Hesheng's shopkeeper Mu Qing, don't tell him anything!" Shen Mo suddenly changed his mind and asked Lu Qiang to find shopkeeper Mu.

"Do you suspect that this dead body is Meng Xiaoyi or Zhao Liu'er?" County Magistrate Lu saw the clues from the side and asked Shen Mo softly.
