Chapter 50: Murderous Nursery Rhymes (14)

When the villagers of Banyan Village were woken up by the sound of a gong, it was already dawn. The loud noise startled the roosters and dogs barking in the silent village, the cattle and sheep were restless, and the families woke up almost at the same time, dressed and got out of bed, and went out to look. Outside, the official in official uniform held a gong in his hand, and shouted to everyone to go under the banyan tree to listen to the case as he walked.

As soon as they heard that it was related to the banyan tree, the villagers washed quickly, and some of them simply went straight to the place with sleepy eyes, taking a good place and waiting.

Those who came late could only stand far behind, and the bold ones squeezed forward, and sat near the banyan tree. When they saw that Master Nasu was once again standing under the banyan tree, they were not afraid at all, and they were amazed in their hearts, and they thought about what kind of retribution he would suffer, so that he would no longer be so arrogant.

The officials are relaxed this time, they don't even have to stop people, with this banyan tree as a "wall", they will not come to them, and they are not afraid of squeezing Su Yunkai.

Qin Fang would sit among the villagers and join in the fun, and he didn't dare to go under the tree. The face that was too white and handsome was very conspicuous among the villagers, and Bai Shui also saw it. As soon as they accidentally looked at each other, the two quickly moved away, as if they didn't see it.

Mingyue stood beside Bai Shui, waiting for Su Yun to open the trial. She also saw the three brothers Zhu Ankang, standing in front of them, the three of them looked calm, and even An Dexing lost his usual noise.

The group of people in the dart game was also on the side, and all of them looked at Su Yunkai with bated breath, not knowing how things would go.

Lord Xu roughly counted the number of people, and stepped forward to report, "Lord Su, all the people who should arrive have arrived." ”

Su Yunkai tapped his chin, looked around to confirm, and then said, "Let everyone come here today to try two cases." One is the Banyan Tree Treasure Case, and the other is the Murder Nursery Rhyme Case. ”

The villagers barely understood, and someone asked in a loud voice, "Then the ghost sister and the banyan tree are going to be divided into two cases?" ”

"Yes, there is no ghost sister killing, it is man-made."

“…… There are murderers in our village? ”

"There is no murderer in Banyan Village, but the murderer is in the village."

Everyone was surprised, and they all turned their heads to look around, and it seemed that only the yamen and the dart bureau were outsiders in the village. The people from the yamen and the dart bureau were also at a loss, and they were inexplicably seen, and hurriedly asked, "My lord, who is the murderer?" ”

They were all listening carefully at this time, and suddenly saw Su Yunkai turning his head to look at one place, which was very eye-catching. Everyone followed his line of sight and saw Yang An, the son of the chief dart.

Yang An was stunned when he saw that his eyes were all on him, and finally squeezed out an embarrassing smile, "See what I do?" I'm not a murderer. ”

"You are the murderer, the one who killed Changde."

Su Yunkai's tone was firm, and even everyone in the dart bureau forgot to defend him, but Yang Jing, who was his father, reacted first, and there was still irrepressible anger in his stunnedness, "What are these words, my son, how can my son be a murderer, he has no grievances with your coachman." Adults don't just pull someone to take the blame in order to solve the case! My son had no incentive to do that. ”

"He has, because he wants to use the rumors of the ghost sister to take advantage of the fear of the villagers to drive us away."

Yang An didn't say anything, but Yang Jing couldn't help it, and even his tone was scolding, "Adults just rely on one mouth, but there is no evidence, if the grass people want to make up a story about adults killing people, the grass people can also tell it smoothly." ”

Lord Xu only felt a shock from the official hat on his head, and shouted, "Don't talk nonsense if you are bold and don't talk nonsense." He glared angrily and drank him down, then leaned around and said politely, "What the Lord just said must have been well thought out, but it was just ...... Xia Guan still felt that if there was no evidence, he was afraid that it would be inappropriate to say so. ”

Of course, this Su Yunkai understands that the cases overlap and always come one by one, "Indeed, if there is no evidence, it is indeed inappropriate." ”

Only then did Lord Xu get into his spirits, "Lord means that you have evidence?" But the murderer was able to hide Changde, and he unknowingly avoided so many ears and eyes in the village and left, and even calculated the time accurately, so he didn't look like a person who came to the village for the first time, right? ”

Because Yang An is not the first time to come to the village, he is familiar with every road here. That's why, without a lamp, you can quickly find a place for the servants to set up their tents and walk through a puddle of water that can easily sink unharmed. ”

Zhu Changrong frowned, "But we haven't seen Yang Gongzi." ”

"He didn't come by day, but by night."

Yang Jing felt inexplicable, "Why did my son come to this Banyan Village, which has nothing to do with each other?" ”

"Because he wants to know if the news of the ghost sister will involve him."

Everyone was full of suspicions, and they didn't understand why Yang An had a connection with the ghost sister. Even Lord Xu, who boasted of having some case-handling ability, was puzzled, "Not to mention why Yang An came to Rongshu Village, it is imperative to prove that Yang An is the murderer first." ”

When Su Yunkai saw him ask, he said, "Changde is not short, because he drives all year round, his arms are very strong. But the man was able to subdue him quickly, and he didn't even have a chance to call for help. But judging from the footprints of the murder, there is only one murderer, and that person knows martial arts. ”

Yang An said, "All the dart masters are good at martial arts, why do adults have to stare at me?" ”

Su Yunkai stared at him coldly, "Because only you have time to kill Changde." Changde died around the end of the day, when the dart masters had already slept in pairs, but you were the only one who was not in the room. It's just that because you've been taking care of your newborn child lately, your schedule has been out of order, and you're not in the room in the middle of the night, and no one suspects it. ”

"I was walking around the yard at the time and didn't go out." Yang An said helplessly, "Of course, adults won't believe it, because you didn't plan to believe the grass people in the morning." ”

Su Yunkai was not surprised by his sophistry, before there was conclusive evidence, it was not easy for a murderer to admit that he had killed someone, "Then have you noticed that the place where you killed Changde is a place where others used to burn porcelain, and there are many broken porcelain pieces on the ground?" ”

Yang An paused, "The grass people haven't been there, so I don't know what the adults are talking about." ”

Su Yunkai sneered lightly, "The edges of the broken porcelain pieces are sharp, but most of them are crumbs, so people with thick soles won't notice it, but people with thin soles can easily prick their feet." Changde is a coachman, and he is basically in the car all day long, without going to the ground, so the soles of his shoes do not need to be too thick, and the soles of his feet are also pierced with small blood holes due to ceramic debris. But for someone like you, who has been going out for a long time, the soles of your shoes are bound to be very thick, and some crumbs are stuck in them, and you may not even know it. ”

Yang An subconsciously moved his feet, and even he didn't notice this move, but the people staring at him saw it very clearly. Yang Jing saw his son like this, and a bad premonition suddenly rose in his heart, for the sake of innocence, but also for the truth, he said in a deep voice, "Take off your shoes." ”

Yang An looked at his father in surprise, "Dad." ”

"I'll let you take off your shoes!"

Yang An didn't move, Yang Jing stepped forward to take off his shoes and see if there was any debris on them. Seeing this, the other dart masters also stepped forward to help, no matter how Yang An struggled, his shoes were still taken off. Yang Jing trembled and flipped the soles of his shoes, and there were some crumbs on the white soles that were one inch thick. He almost fainted, and regardless of the crumbs, he pinched and rubbed desperately in his hands, rubbing his fingers so that his fingers were bleeding, and his throat suddenly choked when he saw that it was ceramic slag.

Yang An was shocked, knelt down and said, "Dad, I didn't kill anyone, when did this get my son I don't know, I ......"

"Yang An." Su Yunkai interrupted in a cold voice, "In addition to this, you have another more important piece of evidence on you, and that evidence was left by Changde before he died." ”

Yang An said angrily, "What else!" ”

"As I said, Changde is a coachman, and he has to wave his braids all year round, so he has a lot of strength in his arms. You can't let him call for help when you subdue him, then you will inevitably need to cover his mouth, then you will have one hand left, and Changde has every chance to resist. The nail of his right thumb was turned out, but there was no dirt, so he must have put the last of his strength into the murderer. A person was about to break free of his fingernails, which shows how much strength he used at that time. Yang An, there must be similar scars on your body. ”

"It's also possible that I was injured somewhere else."

Seeing that he still didn't admit it, Su Yunkai's tone was even colder, "Although Changde has injuries left on his body due to struggle, after Mingyue's autopsy, it was found that only the wound on his neck could ooze a large amount of blood. But the murderer hung him upside down on a tree, so his pants should not have blood, but on the clothes on his knees, Mingyue found bloodstains. Even if the blood on the neck splattered somewhere else, it shouldn't be just the knee. There is only one possibility, the murderer was also injured, and when he was carrying the body, in order not to get the blood of the deceased, he hugged his leg and moved, and when he moved, the murderer's blood was stained on the pants of the deceased. I think...... Your arm was injured before, but I'm afraid that during the fight, the wound will break open again. ”

Mingyue interjected, "Your injury was caused half a month ago, although the injury was deep at that time, but the wound has been healing in half a month, and if there is no strong external force, it will not tear again." Your father once said that blood was spilling from your wound, and he wanted to ask Lang Zhong to show you, the blood on Uncle Chang's knee is your blood! Yang An...... You are the murderer of Uncle Chang. ”

Yang An's face was like ashes, he covered his arms and didn't show Yang Jing, he grabbed his clothes and didn't lift them for others, Yang Jing's heart was like ashes, his son was really a murderer.

He asked in a trembling voice, "Why did you kill a coachman you had never met?" What the hell are you trying to cover up with the ballad of the ghost sister? ”

Su Yunkai sighed, "In order to cover up the fact that he failed Ah Wan, and for his wife and children not to leave him, he tried to cover up his mistakes with such cruel means." ”

Yang Jing seemed to have gray hair at that moment, and he didn't want to care about Ah Wan, but he had to ask, "Who is Ah Wan?" ”

"Ah Wan is the ghost sister in the nursery rhyme, she likes Yang An, but Yang An concealed the fact that she had a family and corresponded with her, and finally the director Zhan Ah Yu committed suicide under this banyan tree with a grudge."

After hearing Ah Wan's name repeatedly, Yang An came back to his senses a little and asked in a daze, "Why do you know about this?" Ah Wan and I are together, and no one should know. ”

Su Yunkai said, "Because the tune of Sister Ghost is the tune of "Forget the Clouds", and that ballad comes from Yuanzhou and from your hometown. ”

Yang An was stunned.

"Ah Wan has a good voice, you do what she likes, teach her to sing this ballad. And the person who rewrote the lyrics for this ballad knew very well that you had taught Ah Wan, so he only changed the nursery rhyme, not the tune. Because they want to sue others, that negative man is you, and the person pointing at it is also you. ”

Yang An looked up at him, "They? ”

Su Yunkai turned to the three people who had been silent for a long time, "That's them." ”

The villagers all looked at Zhu Ankang and the three of them, and when they saw that they were unusually calm and quiet, they realized that what Master Su said was true. The villagers were surprised, and Zhu Changrong was also incredulous, "You made up the nursery rhyme?" ”
