The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 49: The Case of the Heavenly Hound Eating Heart in the Xinglong Street [Part 2]

The haunt of the Heavenly Hound?

Sun Shaozong put the dog hairs under his nose to sniff them. He carefully twisted them into a small pinch, put them in his palm, and looked at them attentively for a while. His face suddenly showed a little disdain, but he had no intention of revealing what he was thinking. He only threw the dog hairs to Zhao Wuwei for safekeeping and then continued investigating the crime scene inch by inch.

Zhao Wuwei saw that Sun Shaozong didn't take the statement of "The Haunt of the Heavenly Hound" seriously, so he couldn't help following him and muttering like a chatterbox, "Master, this case is really strange!"

"I heard that last night, Ge Shilang drove all the young boys and servant girls out of the yard and stayed alone in the study room. As a result, at nearly three o'clock, they heard bursts of sad and shill dog barks coming out of the room, and it was a terrible cry one after another!"

"Ge Shilang's family felt something was wrong, so they gathered more than a dozen people and bravely came to inquire about it."

"As soon as they arrived in the yard, the dog's barking stopped, but no matter how they shouted outside, there was never any reaction inside. Being helpless, the housekeeper and the eldest son of the Ge Mansion ordered them to break in!"

"Who knows, after entering his bedroom in the study, they found that Ge Shilang had died on the spot. There was no scene of any figure in the room, and his heart and liver were missing! Only a few dog hairs fell on the window transom. If this was not the haunt of the Heavenly Hound causing the death, how else could it be?"

Hearing this, Sun Shaozong suddenly lifted his head out of the bath bucket and said, "Are you sure that the dog's bark suddenly disappeared after everyone entered the yard?"

"Yes, of course. A dozen witnesses said so!"

Seeing that his words finally came into effect, Zhao Wuwei hurriedly added, "Do you think this is an evil deed?! Either the murderer is a demon who can fly to the sky and escape to the earth, or the Heavenly Hound ate Ge Shilang's heart and then ran away from the window transom! Otherwise, by being blocked by so many people, how could he disappear out of thin..."

Before the word "air" was said, Sun Shaozong rushed directly to the corner behind the door without saying a word and carefully screened the floor and wall.

Zhao Wuwei also leaned over, but he stared until there was bloodshot in his eyes, and he didn't find anything strange behind the door.

He was just wondering if Sun Shaozong had made a mistake. He saw him slap his palm and said excitedly, "Let's go! Go with me to see the witnesses first, and then give a dose of reassurance news to the Prefectural Magistrate!"

With that, he walked out of the messy bedroom.

Reassurance? Has this case been solved again?!

Zhao Wuwei was shocked and forgot to follow up for a moment. Although he was very convinced of Sun Shaozong's ability to solve the case, the current case was obviously inhuman!

Could it be that…

Sun Shaozhao was the same as Bao Zheng of "Investigating People in the World During the Day and the Ghosts in the Netherworld During the Night.” Even demons and ghosts could be arrested and interrogated?!

Because of this moment's delay, when Zhao Wuwei came out of the bedroom, he saw Sun Shaozong speak with fervor and assurance to Jia Yucun and the people in the Ge Mansion.

"The murderer left two very obvious pieces of evidence at the scene. First of all, a few dog hairs on the window transom! Second, the missing heart of the dead!”

Speaking of this, Sun Shaozong stopped to look around the crowd and then continued, "According to the results of our investigation just now, the heart should have been bitten by the murderer with its teeth and then directly eaten into his stomach!"

"The Heavenly Hound! It must have eaten the Master's heart!"

Before Sun Shaozong finished speaking, he saw a middle-aged woman in mink fur, screaming hysterically, "That damn thing has tortured the Master for a whole year and a half, and I knew that one day, the Master will die at the hands of that damn thing!"

.

"Sobbing sobbing..."

The woman's scream was still in her ears, and a half-hundred-old man burst into tears again, "Master, Master, I said to invite some experts to exorcise the evil spirits, but no matter what I said, you wouldn't agree? See, you were killed by that damn thing! Weeping... "

Look at the standing position and attire of these two people, they should be Ge Shilang's concubine and housekeeper.

Although others were not as impolite as they were , their faces were as white as paper, and their faces were still suffering from the shock!

Even Jia Yucun turned from being ice-cold to having a face full of fear. His eyes rolled around, and the word ”retreat” seemed to be written directly on his face.

At this time, Sun Shaozong suddenly laughed, shook his head, and said, "The murderer's purpose is to make others think about the ”Haunt of the Heavenly Hound,” but this clumsy technique is like “painting a snake with feet and adding something extra to a dog's tail,” which is ridiculous!"

With that, he stretched out his hand to Zhao Wuwei and said, "Give me that tuft of dog hair!"

Zhao Wuwei quickly unfolded the paper bag and carefully presented the dog's hair.

Sun Shaozong twisted it in his hand, shook it a few times, and sniffed, "The thickness, length, color, and feel of these dog hairs... Even the smell of anger is different. They were picked up by people randomly. Shouldn’t the barking you guys heard last night be from a group of dogs instead?"

Hearing these words, everyone looked at those dog hairs suspiciously.

But the mink fur woman didn't believe it at all. With a sneer, she disdained, "This dog is not an ordinary dog, but a collection of grievances from many dead animals. What's so strange about it?"

“The heck! There is such an explanation!”

Let alone others' ”sudden enlightenment,” even Sun Shaozong was a little speechless for a while.

Fortunately, he didn't have only this evidence, so he reached out to Zhao Wuwei for something, held it in his palm, and showed it to the crowd. "Well, even if the Heavenly Hound was indeed a hybrid variety, how should this thing be explained?"

The people looked intently, but they saw that what he held in his hand was a small lump of sticky minced meat. Although someone had guessed the origin of this thing, he cracked his head and still didn't understand the purpose of Sun Shaozong's display of it…

"My good brother."

Jia Yucun couldn't help but urge, "Don't be coy, tell us quickly, what's the doubt about this thing?"

"Lord Prefectural Magistrate."

Sun Shaozong then explained, "If I'm not mistaken, this thing should be the broken residue of the heart after being chewed by the murderer. But don't you think this meat residue is a little too delicate?"

With that, he ground the meat residue into a thin layer on the palm and continued to explain, "Although dog teeth are sharp, they are more suitable for chewing hard objects or tearing the flesh and skin than humans. But because their teeth are sharp, dog teeth do not have the ability to grind food into residue! On the contrary, our human teeth can easily achieve this effect!"

Speaking of this, Sun Shaozong waved his palm at the middle-aged woman and asked with a smile, "This concubine, don't you tell me that the dog not only had miscellaneous hair that day but also had a mouth of human teeth!"
