142 vigorously (3)
Feng Chuan watched as the adult slowly picked up the cup and drank the tea, and stopped.
Master Li hurriedly put it down, looked at Feng Chuan in fear, and asked if it was poisonous.
"My lord, I'm just curious, the well water is not poisonous, and the bowl with the well water is not poisonous? We haven't found the bowl all the time, everyone said that Dali didn't drink water, but Dali may not drink water in front of everyone, so it's better to check the owner's bowl carefully. ”
There's no way now, this is a foolproof plan, it's better than not solving the case.
When I went to the owner again, the man was full of displeasure.
It took eight lifetimes to hire such a person, and now that he was in trouble, despite complaining, he had no choice but to let the official into the house to check.
A few bowls were thrown aside, and that was for the workers.
A few bowls are worthless at first glance, so it's no wonder that they are given to workers.
Feng Chuan took a look, and finally picked them up one by one, and let people take them back to the yamen.
"Official, when will you send it back?" Then the owner spit out, is it possible to buy them a new bowl to use?
Feng Chuan and the others went back to the yamen to check carefully, and sure enough, they found a mystery on a white bowl.
"There's something wrong with this bowl."
It looks inconspicuous, but the lower end of the bowl is missing a corner.
It turned out that this bowl had been filled with poisonous things, and it must have been made by the poisoner, so that he could naturally distinguish which one was poisonous.
The time of a stick of incense confirmed that the bowl had once contained poison, which happened to be the same poison as the one in the deceased.
Everyone present had a smile on their faces.
The case finally made a breakthrough, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Master Li carefully analyzed, even if this poisoned person was poisoned, how can he be sure that this bowl is used vigorously and not by others?
Dali, it just so happened that no one had seen him drink water that day, why?
Xiao Mu found a few workers again.
They heard that the water was poisoned. They all stepped back, as if they were going to be poisoned to death in the next moment.
"Do you think about that day when you saw a lot of water? Otherwise, the murderer will not be caught, and it is not clear who will be killed. ”
Feng Chuan talked to a few people separately, but the results were mostly the same, they had never seen vigorously drinking water.
"I didn't see him drinking, but I saw another guy drinking, and then gave the bowl to Dali."
Feng Chuan's eyebrows twitched. Twisting his face. "Which guy?"
After finding the guy, Feng Chuan questioned carefully, and he admitted that he gave most of the remaining half of the bowl of water to Dali after taking a sip of water that day. Let him be sent back to the house, as for whether Dali drank it or not, he didn't know.
"Did you know that the water is poisonous?"
The man looked at it and quickly shook his head. "Poisonous?"
It wasn't anything after he drank it, but when he died. When he heard about poisoning, he suspected it and was a little scared, and he saw that he was fine for two days. to work with peace of mind.
Now I suspect that the bowl is poisonous, and I am a little afraid.
"You said you drank that bowl of water and you were fine, did you take an antidote?"
Feng Chuan asked. The man's face was pale, why did he harm others for no reason. And if you want to harm others, it's good to give it to him directly, why take a sip yourself.
"The answer is simple, because it proves your innocence and no one will doubt you."
"You can't talk nonsense, if I really want to harm people, I can choose when no one is around, why risk my life and defy the law. Besides, I gave the bowl to Dali, and I didn't know he would drink it. ”
Although he had some truth in what he said, he was brought back to the yamen.
Lord Li personally interrogated.
"Defendant, did you make a vendetta against the deceased, so as to secretly poison him to death?"
"I don't, my lord knows."
He didn't squint, he looked straight ahead, and defended himself.
He knelt on the ground, "If I really want to harm him, I don't have to bother so much, I'm afraid someone is trying to harm me." ”
When Master Li heard this, he asked where he started.
A few days ago, he had a discord with Chef Sun in the back kitchen.
That guy is arrogant and arrogant as a relative of the owner.
Let yourself help him do the work every day.
He looks honest on the outside, and no one knows how hateful he is.
A few days ago, he asked himself to help with the purchase, but because the owner asked him to do other work, he refused Chef Sun, who was against him at every turn.
"My lord, he must be trying to harm me."
In the battle of tongues, how can he kill people, this reason is far-fetched.
But Master Li still found Chef Sun to ask what was going on.
Chef Sun doesn't admit it, he is just a cook, he rarely goes to the front hall, and their workers have little contact with him, as for this guy himself, he doesn't like it, but there are few people, so why do you do so much?
As a result, the case is in trouble again.
"You workers have asked, and they all said that they had never seen Dali drink water, and Dali was afraid that he only drank this bowl of water that day, but it was a bowl of water that killed him."
Lord Li was talking, Feng Chuan didn't know, if the murderer was not a buddy, then what would be the way to let the two of them drink the same bowl of water. One is poisoned and the other is not? What is his purpose?
The young man looked at Chef Sun, and said, he is as unkind as the owner, and he is a relative, maybe he harmed himself and hurt him vigorously, and at the same time he also said that Chef Sun drove people away with the owner.
"Don't talk nonsense, it's obvious that you forced the workers away, what does it have to do with us?"
One sentence for you, one sentence for me.
Feng Chuan understood that a worker was driven away by the owner before, and the owner asked a relative to work for him, but everyone was not convinced and worked together to drive this person away.
Driven away?
"Wait, when did you say this person left?"
The young man thought for a moment and said that it was the day before Dali's death.
Such a coincidence? Before?
"Did he come on the day he died?"
The young man thought about it, and came in the morning to settle the salary, but left after a while.
If the murderer is this person, then the purpose of his poisoning may not be vigorous, it should be these people who deal with him, taking people's jobs is like killing his parents, and he must be resentful in his heart.
In this way, one person is poisoned, and the other is not poisoned, it is likely that he used some method to delay the time for the poison to work, so that he would have an alibi, and no one would suspect him, the person he dealt with should be this group of workers, but he didn't expect the young man to get the bowl, but he was poisoned.
Lord Li looked at Sun and the little guy, and asked them to be pressed down and dealt with in the future, and they cried out for injustice.
"Feng Chuan, what do you think about this matter?"
Feng Chuan lowered his head: Returning to my lord, the little girl thinks that we have ignored a person in this matter, and it is the man who was driven away in their mouths just now.
After speaking, she fell into deep thought again.
"Is there anything you'd like to say?"
Feng Chuan was puzzled, what was the way to make two people drink the same water, one poisoned, and the other not poisoned.
Xiao Mu didn't hesitate, it must be that young man who took the antidote, but he didn't admit it. (To be continued.) )
