Chapter 18: Maybe

Song Ci said: "If it's fake, I'm Song Ci, and I've just been in office for less than half a month, but Lu Sheng, if you believe Song, you might as well tell me about today's events in detail, maybe Song can still find loopholes."

Lu Sheng felt hope, his whole spirit was much better, and he said happily: "Lord Detective, I was wronged, I had already seen people die on the shore early this morning, I just went to report the case, I didn't expect it to be like this."

"Then you tell Song, what did you do when you passed by the pond?"

“.. I just heard that the deceased Feng San was going to fish, so I went to take a look, who knew that the person was already floating on the water. ”

"Then who told you that Feng San was going fishing? How would he know?"

Lu Sheng said: "Don't hide it, it's a person named Huang Mazi, who told me early in the morning, otherwise, I don't know if I am below!"

Song Ci chuckled in his heart, but quickly recovered.

"And then? Did you salvage the man? And then I went to report it?"

"Yes, my lord, the small one fishes people out. After coming up, and then went to the Yamen, who knew that this Guo Zhixian thought that I was a murderer at that time, as for the next thing, you should know.

Song Ci was silent, in this case, how did this Huang Mazi know that Feng Sanyi was going to fish?, and then as soon as he died, he went to the house to tell the deceased's parents?

This matter may have something to do with jute seeds.

"Lu Sheng, when you found the deceased and salvaged it, did any bystanders find it?"

"This... No, my lord, I was the only one at the time, otherwise I would have complained to Guo Zhixian a long time ago. ”

Song Ci was silent for a while, and Qin Xiaoyue stepped forward and whispered, "My lord, did you say that the murderer is this jute seed?" Otherwise, how would he know that the deceased was fishing today? And the parents of the deceased also got the news from him. ”

Song Ci said: "This possibility is possible, but it is not big, and Song does not dare to guarantee it now, but this jute is indeed very suspicious."

"Lu Sheng, now Song asks you, when you salvaged the deceased Feng San, did he have any clothes? And have you touched the silver on him?"

"This, my lord, the deceased didn't wear anything when he was in the water, and at the same time, I Lu Sheng dare to guarantee that none of the money on his body has been touched.

Song Ci nodded, in this way, it seems that the matter has little to do with Lu Sheng, at least, this Huang Mazi is the first person to discover the scene.

Song Ci said: "Lu Sheng, you are currently in the cell, Song needs time to investigate this case, and at the same time, can you tell Song where this Huang Mazi lives."

Lu Sheng said: "He lives in the area of Zhengxi Street, and next to him is a casino, just like the deceased Feng San, he is a gambler."

Song Ci nodded, a few people left, and came to the outside of the yamen, Guo Chengjun said: "Master Song, I don't know how the investigation of the case is?" This official dares to guarantee that your money is spent in vain, how easy is it to find evidence, besides, this matter has become an iron case, and you Song Zhuangshi want to overturn the case with one person, could it be that the Great Song Law Order is really so vulnerable?

Song Ci said: "I don't bother Guo Zhixian about this, Song is a master, as long as someone hires Song, Song should take it, otherwise, how can he be worthy of the word master?"

"Haha, since Master Song is so confident, then the official will wait for seven days, no matter what the case is, as long as Master Song does not find absolute evidence, then this Lu Sheng will be beheaded, because killing people will pay for his life!"

Song Ci and a few people left, walking on the road, Qin Xiaoyue said: "My lord, why don't we directly identify ourselves?" Wouldn't he be remanded for a new trial immediately?"

Song Ci said: "I don't want to show my identity, but once I do, how can I see the real scene of Guo Chengjun?" So, Miss Satsuki, we can't be in a hurry now. ”

"Oh, it turns out that the adults have this consideration, and the people are negligent."

"Haha Xiaoyue girl, do you know that our adults are not only bold and dare to touch people with many corpses, but he is also careful, otherwise how can he be this criminal officer?"

They walked for a while, and soon came to Zhengxi Street, nearby, there was a gambling hall, there were many people in it, it was very lively, and the shouting continued.

"My lord, this may be the residence of this Huang Mazi, but I don't know if he is in it, or let's go and ask directly?"

Song Ci shook his head, "Don't worry, go in and take a look, here, it may be a yamen cover, and there are a mix of people and dragons inside, and there are all types."

Striding in, about a count, it is estimated that there are forty or fifty people, most of the tables are broken silver, there are no copper plates, if you count them all, I am afraid there are a lot.

Seeing these people appear, the steward shouted, "A few guest officers, do you want to come and play for a while?" We have everything, dice and chess, and the guest officer wants to play the same?"

Song Ci said: "Are you playing big here?" Song is just a civilian, maybe the broken silver on his body is not enough!"

The steward said: "This is not in the way, if the guest officer wins, he can take it all, if he loses and has no fun playing, he can borrow you for free, but how about receiving a certain benefit?"

Song Ci said: "What benefits are needed?" Is interest charged, or do I need to pledge the item?

"This, of course, is a mortgage, as long as you bring the deed, or sign a blank paper with you, so that you can borrow ten to twenty taels of silver in the next, do you want to think about it?"

Qin Xiaoyue said: "Childe, it's all a lie here, why don't you come?" As soon as he heard the word "son", the person in charge already knew that Song Ci was not small, and continued: "Don't shirk the guest officer, it's rare to come once, maybe I don't know when I will come next time?"

Song Ci said: "In this case, then Wencheng Wenwu, you can play with them a few times, by the way, let's try the water first, if you win the money, you can take it, then you might as well come and play more in the future."

"Yes, sir!"

They are very confident and have many years of experience in dice.

The steward said: "Huang Mazi, come to this table, accompany these guests, remember, treat them well, this is our regular guest."

Soon, a middle-aged man ran over, his face was dotted a lot, and it was indeed right to call him pockmarked.

"Steward, what's going on? Huang, I'm playing hard, why are you calling me over?"

The steward said: "If you let the boy come, you will come, how can there be so many words?" Remember, these are distinguished guests, and you must not offend me, or you will return a lot of the silver.

Song Ci looked at this person, he was Huang Mazi, this person was the same as Feng San, he was a gambler, it seemed that the possibility of falling into the water and dying was very small, and at the same time, he was not sure whether he killed him.

When the steward left, Huang Mazi said, "Several, why don't we play dice directly?" Directly compared to the big and small, who shakes out the most points, even if who wins, I don't know what to do?"
