Chapter 312: Longzhou County Case VII
"My lord, I followed him home, this person is not suspicious, he is a poor family, just working here to earn wages."
Song Qingdao: "Are you right? Are you sure this person doesn't live in a theater troupe?"
"Yes, my lord, we can see it clearly, and at the same time, we also learned that this person has only been in the troupe for a few days, so he doesn't know how to use this guillotine at all."
Song Qing understood, he seemed to be looking for the wrong direction, the real murderer was a smart person, and he knew that if he pretended to do anything, he would not be able to show his feet.
It seems that the matter has come full circle, and it has turned back as it is.
"Adjutant General, you take this blade now, and then go back to some soldiers, and you look for blacksmith shops throughout the county, and then ask one by one who went to build this thing.
"Yes, my lord, but there are too many blacksmith shops in this place, and I can't find them at all. Again.... It won't be possible anytime soon. ”
"This... Actually, you don't have to worry, I think you can start from a distance, and the murderer will be willing to go far, after all, this is understandable. ”
He gave a sigh of encouragement and immediately ran out.
Song Qing and the others are walking towards the drama troupe at this moment, since they have pretended to investigate the case, they must continue to the end.
"Miss Yueyue, let's go, I'll continue to go in and have a look, it's almost noon, I'll go in and eat by the way."
The two of them strode in, and then came to the hall, where all the singing was there, and the head of the class was talking to everyone, as if it was about the murder.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the matter of being hacked to death by a guillotine, Lord Zhizhou has already had the results of the investigation, and the murderer is this Liu Wu, who has a grudge against his companions, so he deliberately killed many people with a real guillotine."
"Fortunately, our Lord Zhizhou has a clear understanding and did not let this villain escape the punishment of the Great Song Dynasty, and tonight, we can continue to sing again."
Song Qing and Tang Yueyue walked over, and the class master found them, and he also opened his mouth at this moment.
"Ladies and gentlemen, these two are actually our Da Song Ti criminal officers, about this case, it is possible that it was with his help that it was solved, I will wait to get up and welcome."
These singers immediately got up to greet them, Song Qing walked over, and said at this moment: "Everyone, in fact, you don't have to be so polite, although this case has been solved, Song still has a lot of incomprehension.
The head of the class said: "Lord Song, otherwise, I will answer while eating, or the two of you will also sit down and eat together?"
Song Qing had no opinion, it just so happened that he was also a little hungry.
Some singers went to fetch some dishes and chopsticks, and then they brought rice, and they moved a seat.
Song Qing and Tang Yueyue were sitting nearby, and they opened their mouths at this moment.
"Class master, and everyone, this murderer, I want to know why he killed someone? Was there a feud between the deceased in this case and him? If not, why would he do such a bad thing?"
Everyone couldn't answer, the class leader thought for a while, and explained: "My lord doesn't know, don't look at the two of them who are usually harmonious, but behind their backs they don't get along, not only that, but I once caught them fighting."
Fight? Song Qingdao: "You are all a group, there must be a reason to fight, is it possible that you have to do it for no reason?" It's also unlikely. ”
"Class master, otherwise, you explain the relationship between the two of them, although the murderer has been arrested, many things have not been clarified."
The head of the class said: "My lord, in fact, this is the case, about this deceased, he is also one of the people who was established in our theater troupe, he has been there from the beginning to the present, and this person doesn't talk much on weekdays."
"Because I was too poor when I was young, I didn't marry a daughter-in-law now, I am a bachelor, I like to gamble on weekdays, and I lose all the money I earn in the theater troupe."
"And what else? How did the conflict between them come about?" Song Qing urgently needed to know.
"This Song Ti Punishment, in fact, the hatred between these two has always existed since the establishment of the troupe, and at the beginning, it seemed that it was due to the uneven distribution of spoils, which led to this friction getting bigger and bigger, and I also mediated it privately, but it didn't work."
"I didn't know until two days ago that things were going to get bigger, and if I had known that this would be the case, I should have enlightened them in the first place,...."
Song Qing was silent, there was nothing wrong with the words in the class master's mouth, and he couldn't tell whether it was true or false, but it didn't mean that it was all the truth.
"In that case, then class master, you can introduce this murderer, killing a person by such cruel means, presumably he is not an ordinary person."
The latter thought for a while and continued to explain, "Regarding the murderer Liu Wu, this person joined halfway, almost three years, but at the beginning, he spent a hundred taels of silver to join us, and later, the income of the troupe is getting better and better, and it has been paid back in almost a year and a half. ”
"My lord, this murderer Liu Wu has been dishonest in the theater troupe, although we and others are all cooperative, but this person is good at stealing and playing tricks, being a traitor, and he is not willing to do the hard work in the troupe."
Song Qing was silent, his brain was running at high speed.
"This Friday, it is said that he has had a criminal record before, and he committed theft before he entered our theater troupe, and he was imprisoned by our Zhizhou for several years."
"Theft? So this time he became the focus of suspicion? That's not right, it's just before, and now that he has an income, can't he continue to commit crimes?" The class owner was embarrassed for a moment, and he didn't say a word about the surrounding singing, not knowing what he was thinking.
Tang Yueyue said: "Class master, this Liu Wu killed the other party for this matter, it seems that it can't be done?" By the way, Zhizhou arrested the other party as soon as he came, I want to know if you revealed any news?"
Song Qing also wanted to know this question, and these others didn't speak, as if there was something wrong in the dark.
"Lord Song, and this girl, in fact, don't hide it, and I also suspect this Liu Wu in Xia, but when the adults came yesterday, because there was no conclusive evidence, I didn't dare to say it, otherwise it would ruin the innocence of others.
Song Qingen sighed, "Class master, don't reply yet, Song has a question to ask these surrounding people, everyone, what the class master said just now, do you all know it?" They still didn't say a word, as if they were worried about something, could it be Liu Wu's revenge?
Song Qing continued: "What's wrong? Are you all not aware, or are you unwilling to answer? Or are you afraid of this Liu Wu? Don't worry, this person can't get out because of the murder, and he may be beheaded soon. ”
They still didn't speak, Song Qing couldn't figure it out, and it seemed necessary to break them one by one.
The head of the class said: "My lord, these people in our drama troupe are probably scared by this murder, after all, their heads have fallen off, do you say it's scary?"
Song Qingen sighed, unwilling to continue to ask, and suddenly someone got up and said: "Class master, I'm not doing it, I'm going to leave the troupe, and I don't want the income here, I'll leave now."
Without waiting for the other party to reply, the person walked out at that time.
These people outside the order are also ready to move, but they seem to be afraid of something, and they don't want to say more at the moment.
The head of the class sighed: "Hey, this person has no sense of responsibility at all, he just leaves, how will he run the drama troupe in the future?" If you don't get it, you still need to be yellow. ”
"When it was first run, it was all good, but since it was a death, now people are panicked and have no intention of operating.
Song Qing stared at each other, unwilling to comfort him at the moment.
"By the way, I want to know if all of you live in the theater troupe? Will you go back to your home at night?"
"This, this.... Only when I live here, after all, I am afraid of thieves, and as for others, they all go back to live every night, after all, it is not easy to drag a family with a mouth.
Song Qing asked again, "What about your rehearsals?" Every daytime?"
"Yes, my lord, if the rehearsal is too long at night, the people in the vicinity will have opinions, hey, now that something like this has happened, I don't know how long our troupe can last."
The meal was soon finished, and someone took the dishes and chopsticks to the kitchen to clean them, Song Qing always felt that there was something wrong with these people, but he couldn't ask in front of the class master.
"Miss Yueyue, let's go, let's wait outside, once someone leaves, we'll take the opportunity to go up and ask."
The two of them walked out and went outside to wait for someone to come out, and before they knew it, it was dark, and then night came.
Soon a person walked out of it, Song Qing and Tang Yueyue immediately followed, and when they came behind them, they immediately called out to stop this person.
"This, I think you already know Song's identity, but at this moment there is something I want to ask you, I don't know if it is convenient to answer.
The latter was stunned for a moment, and when he saw that it was the criminal officer, he immediately knelt on the ground.
Song Qing helped him up and said, "This, Song wants to ask you, I don't know how long you have been working here, did you have a share of the establishment of the opera troupe?"
The latter was stunned for a moment, and then said, "No, my lord, what's wrong?" I just work in it, and I earn some hard money in a month. ”
Song Qing nodded, "Then Song wants to ask you, I don't know how much silver you can earn in a month?" Will this silver feed you?"
The latter sighed and said: "My lord, we seem to have a good job, but the income is not high, it is two taels of silver a month, and the family has nothing left except for expenses."
"And then? Then you didn't plan to leave this troupe? At the same time, do you know why the man didn't do it?"
He sighed, "Leave? Where are you going to eat, and my lord, although we are a big city, it is not easy to find a job, and without income, the whole family has to go hungry. ”
"As for the person just now, in fact, to put it bluntly, as for why he left, it is probably because he was afraid in his heart, but why he was afraid, in fact, I can't say clearly, I wonder if it has something to do with what has happened in the past two years.
