65 came out of the water
When the two women saw that the catch was so impersonal, they threw up their sleeves and left.
Other guests also had no choice but to return to their rooms.
Li Yan slowly walked to Qingli's side and said, "I have made my identity clear to the official, let's leave now." ”
"Let's go, don't we care about this?" asked Qing Li suspiciously.
"We still have important things to do, and we can't stay for a long time." ”
Qingli raised her head and said in her heart, hoping that the case would be clarified as soon as possible, and those two poor women could see their mother for the last time!
At this time, the leading official went to check the scene of the crime, and the other officials interrogated the whereabouts of the people in the inn last night, room by room.
The leader sent Zhuxiao to find that there was no pain on the deceased's face, and there were no wounds on his body, he frowned, and he couldn't figure out the cause of death.
Other officials who went to the investigation also said: "There is nothing unusual, everyone has alibi." ”
The official pondered for a moment, and then examined the head and neck of the deceased, but nothing was unusual.
Because the bamboo flute shook the deceased's head, the deceased's black mouth overflowed with blood droplets.
The official sent Zhu Xiao hurriedly raised his big hand and opened the mouth of the deceased through the white cloth, and the mouth of the deceased was full of red blood.
The official Zhu Xiao's frowning brows relaxed.
Zhu Xiao went to check the clothes of the deceased and found a long hair!
A guess formed in Zhu Xiao's mind, and he instructed him to whisper to the other two officials, and the two officials left!
Zhu Xiao's official uniform swayed, and he hurried to the guest rooms of the two female tenants who had said that his mother was sick and wanted to leave first.
He approached the door, raised his slender hand, knocked on it, and said, "Two young ladies, is it convenient to come out?"
The older female tenant opened the door and said, "What's the matter with the big brother of the official? Didn't you ask us? We have been resting all night, besides, how dare we two weak women run around when we are from outside?"
Another young woman who couldn't hide her beauty also said: "Brother Guancha, my sister and I are really in the guest room all night, we don't know anything!"
After saying that, the woman sobbed in a low voice: "How can we be so unlucky, how can we encounter such a disaster!"
The official said Zhu Xiao: "Do the two girls really don't know anything? Now I am sure that it is a woman who committed the crime, and the woman in this inn, counting you, there are three of them." Based on the one-sided words of the two young ladies alone, it is impossible to rule out the suspicion of the two of them!"
Although Zhu Xiao used polite words, his tone was very sharp, and the younger woman trembled slightly, secretly raised her head, and glanced at Zhu Xiao.
He wanted to stop talking, Zhu Xiao found out, the corners of his eyebrows raised, and said: "If the two of you don't have other convincing evidence, then you can only ask the two girls to go to the yamen with you." ”
The older woman clenched her fists and said, "We have nothing to do with this case, you can't arrest us!"
The official Zhu Xiao smiled coldly and said, "In order to find out the case as soon as possible, I also asked the two girls to go with him." ”
After speaking, the two officials behind him were about to oppress people.
The older woman was extremely angry and shouted: "Let's go by ourselves, we have nothing to do with this case, since you have to arrest us, then we will go for a trip, I hope you don't see that our sisters have no power to convict us at will because of their lack of ability!"
After saying that, the two women went to the yamen with Zhu Xiao and them.
The younger woman kept clutching the older woman's arm, and the younger woman trembled as the county order snapped at the startled slap.
The older woman patted the younger woman on the back and comforted: "It's okay, we have nothing to do with this case, and we can go out when our suspicion is ruled out!"
The older woman said to the prefectural order, "I don't know what you want to ask, my lord. ”
After Zhu Xiao and the county order reported, the county order looked at the younger woman and said, "Are you related to this case, or do you know something?" ”
The younger woman finally couldn't support it, and said in a panic: "I really can't say, I can't say, this case has nothing to do with us, adults, let us go!"
The county ordered: "The girl might as well say it directly, when the two suspects are ruled out, we will definitely release the two!"
The older woman also said softly, "Zi'er, if you know anything, tell them." ”
Under the comfort of the older woman, Zi'er calmed down a little, and she said, "That person said that if her affairs are revealed, she will not let me go!"
The county magistrate stared at Zi'er and said, "If the girl knows anything, just say it, we will definitely protect you!"
Zi'er said tremblingly: "I wanted to go to Xiaojie last night, but as soon as I got out of bed, I heard a slight knock on the door outside, because I hadn't woken up from sleep, so I thought it was knocking on our door, I walked over slowly, because it was night, I didn't dare to open the door, I just walked to the door to ask what was going on." ”
Zi'er closed her eyes, recalled for a moment, and said: "Before I could speak, I heard the ruffian next door say, what is the so-called matter of the little lady coming here late at night, isn't she thinking about my brother and me?"
At this time, a gentle female voice came, yes, today I saw my brother's demeanor, and I couldn't sleep at night, although the woman was extremely ambiguous, I felt the coldness in her tone. ”
Zi'er's face showed a frightened expression and fell again: "After I finished my small relief, I went back to the bed, but I didn't have the slightest sleep, I turned over, I only made a slight sound, who knew that a low female voice came from outside the door, she said, if today's things leak out, then this person's fate is your end." ”
Zi'er's sister hugged Zi'er and said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's all over." ”
At that time, two officials escorted in a delicate woman wearing a gauze skirt with her hair simply pulled up.
The woman looked at Zi'er coldly, and Zi'er's frightened tears rolled down like pearls with broken threads.
The county magistrate said to Zi'er: "Is this person?" ”
Zi'er said in horror: "I don't know, I don't know anything." ”
Seeing this, the county magistrate said to Zi and her sister, "The two girls can leave." Thank you to the two ladies for helping solve this case. ”
Zhu Xiao also said: "Zhu Mou was offended a lot before, please two young ladies Haihan." ”
The older woman glanced at Zhu Xiao coldly, and left with Zi'er.
At this time, the county magistrate said to the woman who was escorted in: "Do you have anything to justify? ”
The woman moved her arm and said with a look of disgust: "He deserves to die, he deserves it." ”
The magistrate shouted, "No matter what this person does, he will be punished by his own law, and you have no right to end his life." ”
