Chapter 64: A false alarm
Wen Ziqi smiled and said: "If it is really as this friend said, then there is no need to invite all of you here, just need to prepare enough silver to visit one by one." ”
When the people heard this, it seemed that the meaning was not right, and they whispered to each other.
Wen Ziqi turned his head and said to Huang Zhutou: "My Great Zhou is rich in products, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and they fight against the surrounding countries, relying on the unity of the upper and lower levels, and the neighbors understand each other and treat each other honestly, but if someone maliciously slanders and spreads rumors, I don't know how to punish such people in the law?" ”
Huang Zhutou was slightly stunned when he heard this, and he didn't understand the meaning of Wen Ziqi's question, so he could only say according to the provisions of the law: "If someone maliciously slanders and spreads rumors and causes trouble, and destroys the harmony of the neighborhood, depending on whether the circumstances are serious, he will be fined 50 to 100 taels of silver, and 20 taels of palms." ”
After hearing this, Wen Ziqi nodded and continued: "Then how should you punish if you deliberately disrupt law enforcement with the intention of confusing the public?" ”
Huang Zhutou thought for a while and said: "Deliberately disrupting law enforcement and confusing the public so that the government cannot carry out the decree normally, and will be sentenced to exile or criminal detention!" ”
Wen Ziqi smiled, then turned his head to the crowd and asked, "Did you come to Yuelai Inn yesterday to have a meal or drink!" ”
Everyone thought to themselves, this person in front of him is not afraid of being a fool, he has asked this question just now, why ask it again?
replied unevenly: "Nonsense, if you hadn't come here to use wine and food, you wouldn't have gotten into such a bad thing!" ”
Wen Ziqi nodded and said, "Okay, then the next question I asked, you have to think about how to answer, have you all eaten the lo-mei of Yuelai Restaurant yesterday!" ”
The man in the royal blue embroiderer's coat said with an annoyed expression: "Eat, what's wrong?" Is it still illegal to eat lo-mei? ”
Wen Ziqi smiled slyly, and said loudly: "This friend, seeing that you are gorgeously dressed, you must also be a figure with a head and a face, I will give you another chance, you carefully recall whether you ate yesterday, remember that this is the last chance, think about it later!" ”
I saw the man straighten his chest and said arrogantly: "Don't think about it, uncle, I will never change it, eat it, can you do anything to me?" ”
Wen Ziqi shook his head and said coldly: "Huang Zhutou, arrest this person and send him to the mansion." ”
Huang Zhutou looked dazed, but thought that since Wen Ziqi said that it should have found some clues that we didn't find, he waved his hand and gave an order, and several officials around him pressed the man to the ground like a hungry tiger pounced.
Another tall and thin man who was standing with the man shouted, "Why is this the arrest of people without evidence?" ”
As soon as these words came out, even Huang Zhutou looked at Wen Ziqi, thinking that yes, this groundless arrest is terrible.
"Unsubstantiated? To tell you the truth, I not only want to arrest him, but I also want to accuse him of lying and confusing the public, wantonly destroying the harmony of the neighborhood, and not only that, but I will also sue him again for deliberately disrupting law enforcement. Are these three pieces of evidence enough to arrest him? Wen Ziqiyun said lightly to the tall and thin man.
When the thin and tall man heard this, he was immediately angry, and shouted, "How can you talk nonsense with empty white teeth." ”
The other three should be together, and when they see something wrong, they silently distance themselves from the tall and thin man, as if to tell everyone that they are not in the same group as the tall and thin man!
Outside the fat man who was pressed to the ground by several officials, he also roared angrily at this time: "Don't think that you can cover the sky with one hand. ”
Wen Ziqi looked at the fat man who fell to the ground and said coldly: "You are still so obsessed after the ghost door has been closed. Huang Zhutou, please take out the stump and show it to everyone. ”
Huang Zhutou was still thinking about what had happened just now, could it be that he had just been distracted and missed some crucial information? Why, in the blink of an eye, the person who was clamoring for compensation was arrested by him? This series of questions made his head feel like a mess.
Now I suddenly heard Wen Ziqi calling himself, no matter what it was, anyway, let's talk about it first. Then he said, "Yes." ”
The shopkeeper looked at Huang Zhutou in surprise, and thought to himself, is he just like me, and now he is also a mush?
After a few breaths, I saw that Huang Zhutou was still standing in place with his hands crossed on his hips as if his face was sinking into water. The shopkeeper said in a low voice: "Huang Zhutou, Brother Wen asked you to take the stump and show it to everyone." ”
Only then did Huang Zhutou know why he heard Wen Ziqi call his name just now, it turned out that he had something to order. I couldn't help but panic in my heart, but my face was Gu Jing Wubo calmly walked back to the wing room.
After a few breaths, I saw Huang Zhutou holding the box in both hands, twisting his face and walking out of the room. Wen Ziqi stretched out his hand and motioned to put the box in front of everyone.
Everyone covered their mouths and noses with their cuffs with frightened faces, and took a step back, for fear of being contaminated with bad luck. Huang Zhutou also wanted to get along with the man in the royal blue embroidered shirt, so he placed the box four or five inches away from the tip of his nose.
The fat man, who was already pressed to the ground and was quite annoyed, saw Huang Zhutou put the stump in front of him at this moment, and he could count how much hair there was on the stump when he was so close to the fat man.
This made him intolerable, so he yelled and used all his strength to get up, but the reality is often not as people want, and the few people who originally pressed it thought that the fat officer wanted to be arrested, so they added a little more force. This plus can hurt the fat man, there was originally a few inches away, and it was pressed like this, and it was basically next to the stump.
The abdomen that was already pressed by several officials on the body rolled non-stop, and then after the smell of the incomparably fishy, there was a sudden "wow", and the whole thing was spit in the box.
The shopkeeper said "Huh", grinning and saying disdainfully: "Now there is one more, wantonly destroying evidence!" ”
At this time, the bile that the fat man had vomited was about to come out, and what evidence could be found there.
Huang Zhutou's eyes widened, looking at the accident in front of him, his heart was also trembling, and he scolded: "You bastards, are you so hard-working?" Are you still afraid that you won't be able to run away! Hurry up, pull people up for me! ”
When the conscripts heard this, they quickly stood up, pulled the fat man who was paralyzed into a ball, and sent him aside.
The thin and tall man twitched the corners of his mouth without listening, looked at the fat man with a face of vomit, and stammered: "Qi, Qi outside, you are not, it's okay!" ”
Wen Ziqi looked at the other three people who were hiding far away and said in a deep voice: "Why do I want to sue Qi Yuanwai for the three major crimes, because he lied, he didn't eat lo-mei at all yesterday." And he also intends to provoke you to disturb the audio-visual in order to achieve his own purpose of extortion! After a pause, he looked at the three people in the distance with a smile on his face.
I saw that the three of them were pale, and the leader of a brocade-clothed boy was even more trembling, and the fan fell unsteadily. Wen Ziqi saw that the effect was obvious, so he continued: "By chance, I learned that the human stump was found in the lo-mei of Yuelai Restaurant, and I happened to be dining here at the time, so I happened to order a lo-mei." So he had bad thoughts and wanted to blackmail. ”
After saying that, he looked at the brocade boy led by a smile and said, "Your Excellency shouldn't think like this!" ”
The young man in brocade was slightly stunned, then pointed at Wen Ziqi with his hand and wanted to say something, but he heard Wen Ziqi continue: "But he didn't know that the stump he found was poisoned by someone with a strange poison, and this poison was so poisonous that it made people smack." ”
The boy in brocade slowly withdrew the hand he had just stretched out and swallowed his saliva. He turned his head in horror to look at the two people behind him. I saw that both of them were staring straight at the box on the ground with dead faces.
Huang Zhutou, who was originally standing beside Wen Ziqi, also widened his eyes when he heard this, looked at the box on the ground, and said slowly: "Little Brother Wen, you mean that you know what kind of poison this person died of!" ”
Wen Ziqi nodded and said, "Well, it's not difficult!" Now it's hard to find the rest of the stumps! If the water source is exposed, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
Huang Zhutou frowned, and asked in a low voice: "What does Brother Wen mean that there is still poison after being eaten?" ”
Wen Ziqi looked at the people present, and did not answer, but simply said, "As soon as possible!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Huang Zhutou naturally knew what they meant, so he stretched out his hand and beckoned a servant to come over and ordered: "You and the other brothers stay here, and everything is subject to Brother Wen's dispatch!" ”
The official nodded, saluted Wen Ziqi and said, "Little Brother Wen, if you have any orders, just say it, brothers, everything is up to you!" ”
Huang Zhutou nodded, gave Wen Ziqi a look, turned around and left in a hurry.
The shopkeeper who was standing on the other side could naturally hear the conversation between the two just now, and suddenly said with a sad face: "Then Brother Wen, what should we do now?" ”
Wen Ziqi looked at the shopkeeper and said with a smile: "For today's plan, we can only take one step at a time, we should solve your matter here first and then make other plans!" ”
Hearing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly clenched his fists and said respectfully: "Then there is Brother Lao Wen!" ”
Wen Ziqi looked at the few diners who were stunned in place and said, "I also said just now that this poison is very toxic, and it is still big!" Even if there is only one drop of food, it will attack in a few hours, and it will be poisoned and killed in about twelve hours! ”
When the boy in brocade heard this, he immediately burst into tears and said, "That means we are all dead?" ”
The tall and thin man who was originally standing next to the fat man heard that he might die of poison at any time, where could he still take care of the fat man, so he staggered over and said, "Childe, will there be any symptoms when the poison is attacked?" ”
Wen Ziqi looked at him and sighed and said, "It's been almost twelve hours since I found out yesterday, and the fact that you can still stand here now shows that you haven't eaten lo-mei at all!" That's why I said you guys have walked around the ghost gate! ”
