"Then why are you saying it now?"

The old man moved his mouth, and he didn't say a word for a long time, just looked sideways, and looked at Gu Mingqin beside him with an embarrassed face.

Following his gaze, Wu Tianshi also looked at Gu Mingqin, and asked sharply, "Miss Gu, did you force him to say it?" ”

"The adult's words are wrong, the little girl is not persecution, the little girl is just begging Uncle Wang to tell a fact in front of the adult." Gu Mingqin corrected his mistakes.

slapped the table, Wu Tianshi shouted: "Gu Mingqin, you are so bold, you dare to question the official's ability to handle cases?" Who do you think you are? ”

Hearing this again, Gu Mingqin couldn't help but roll her eyes in her heart, questioning you? The question is, do you have the ability to handle cases, I'm afraid it's your ability to take care of people's lives. Although angry, Gu Mingqin had to endure the indignation in her heart, and whispered in front of this person: "Lord Wu, please calm your anger, the little girl doesn't mean to be disrespectful to the adult, it's just that the little girl feels that her father shouldn't and can't run to the edge of the cliff alone when he is drunk, and then 'accidentally fall into the cliff'." ”

"Oh? No way? Miss Gu, tell me, what's impossible? Wu Tianshi seemed to be interested, turned around, returned to the chair and sat down again.

Knowing that the opportunity had come, Gu Mingqin lowered her head slightly and opened her mouth calmly: "My mother died early, and the four little sisters and brothers and my father depended on each other. My father practiced medicine for a living, and he always paid attention to the way of health preservation, and it was impossible to drink greedily. Adult, it's not that the little girl boasts, in the impression of the little girl, the father has never been greedy......"

"In your mind?" Wu Tianshi sneered, obviously sneering at her explanation.

Gu Mingqin didn't argue, but continued: "Even if my father is different from the past, drinking happily, getting drunk, and watching three watches in the middle of the night, why do you need to run out of the city and run to the edge of the cliff?" Not to mention him, it is impossible for anyone to run to the edge of the cliff at that time without special circumstances, and he is still drunk? The little girl felt strange, when the body was found, in this case, the adult didn't deliberately ask......" Before the words were finished, there was a "pop" sound, and there was a startling sound, and Wu Tianshi asked angrily again in her ears—

"Miss Gu, are you doubting this official's ability to handle cases?" Wu Tianshi said, his eyes widened, and he glared angrily at Gu Mingqin.

Gu Mingqin was speechless again, and said just that. She really wanted to ask rhetorically, "Do you have the ability to handle cases, will you say something else", gritted her teeth, held back the "disrespectful words" in her heart, faced Wu Tianshi, and kowtowed gently: "Adult, please stop being angry, the little girl doesn't mean to slander adults." The little girl knows that adults have every opportunity, and it is inevitable that there will be some negligence in judging cases, which is also human nature, and there is nothing to blame; What's more, when the father went suddenly, the little girl had just received the news and was grief-stricken, in that case, even if the adult asked, the little girl might not be able to answer calmly. ”

"That's pretty much it." Wu Tianshi muttered and nodded secretly, as if he was a little arrogant. You see, it's not that I don't ask, it's that you're too sad to answer my question at all.

Gu Mingqin heard it, this Wu Tianshi was simply shirking his responsibility. For a moment, Gu Mingqin even thought of giving up. Such a parent official who bullies the weak and fears the hard, and cares about people's lives, what hope does he have to rely on? Just don't rely on him, on whom? Fortunately, before this, Gu Mingqin also knew something about this parent official, and he had already expected his excuses and refusals, and thought of a way to deal with it.

"Don't hide it from adults, a few days ago, after the little girl dealt with her father's funeral, after calming down, she thought about it carefully, and the more she thought about it, the more she found that there was something strange in it. As a daughter, the little girl never wanted to believe that her father died because he was drunk and accidentally fell off a cliff. Father is not such a person......"

"Not such a person?" Wu Tianshi asked rhetorically, and without waiting for her to speak, he impatiently lectured, "Little girl, I see that you have also read for a few days, not the ignorant women and children who know nothing, you should have heard a saying, you know people and faces, but you don't know your heart." ”

Speaking of this, Wu Tianshi paused, looked at Gu Mingqin deeply, and then continued: "Miss Gu, I know that he Gu Jialiang is your father, he must have always been decent in front of you, and when facing his children, he naturally has to lead by example; But when he goes to others, especially his friends, what kind of person he is, you know? It's normal for good friends to get together, be greedy for a cup, be happy, and get drunk......"

"But even so, when you finish drinking, you should go home immediately, even if you live in an inn or a workshop, the little girl can understand; But why did my father run away from the city and run to the edge of the cliff......

When Wu Tianshi heard her say this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked: "Okay, Miss Gu, tell me, why did your father run to the edge of the cliff in the middle of the night?" ”

"I don't know." Gu Mingqin lowered his head and sighed secretly.

"Don't know?" Wu Tianshi squinted his eyes, looked at the girl in front of him, and suddenly laughed, "Miss Gu, what did you tell me just now, you and your father depend on each other, you know your father very well; And now you can't tell why your father ran to the edge of the cliff in the middle of the night......"

"My lord, I really don't know why my father is like this, so I questioned it, and I want my lord to retry this case to see if there is anything else hidden." Gu Mingqin argued eagerly. Looking up at Wu Tianshi, the other party looked disdainful, obviously not taking his words to heart. Unwilling to look at his fat face without any expression, Gu Mingqin lowered his head and nodded lightly before continuing, "I know that the adult has a lot of opportunities, and the death of my father cannot find evidence, if I tell the adult, the adult will definitely not easily believe it, will not overturn the previous conclusion, and retry the case for the little girl......"

"If you know, it's good." Wu Tianshi suddenly blurted out. As soon as the words fell, he saw the girl opposite suddenly raise her head and look at herself, her expression was cold, as if she had a murderous aura, which made him feel frightened. At the same time, he also realized the gaffe, and hurriedly covered his mouth, slowed down, and then put his hand down, "You continue, you continue to ......"

Lowering her head again, Gu Mingqin slowly opened her mouth: "In order to make Lord Wu believe that the little girl is not messing around, there is indeed a hidden secret to the death of my father. These days, the little girl has been visiting everywhere, visiting her father's old friends, hoping to find out the clues, Lord Bingming. Lord Wu, to tell you the truth, the night before my father's accident, he left in a hurry, and even the little girl asked, but she didn't have time to answer......"

"You mean to say that before Gu Jialiang died, he left home in a hurry; And what is he going to do, you don't know? ”

Gu Mingqin nodded helplessly: "That's true." The little girl knew that if the little girl said this, Lord Wu would not be convinced; But what the little girl said is true, and the little girl really doesn't know why her father left home in a hurry. Looking up at Wu Tianshi, tears glistening in his eyes, hoping that he would believe in himself. After looking at it for a while, Gu Mingqin lowered his head again, calmed down for a moment before saying, "Actually, this kind of thing has not happened before, if there is a sudden patient, even if it is the middle of the night, my father will go to see it in person." The little girl thought that her father was going to visit the patient and would be back soon, but she didn't expect it, she didn't expect it......"

Thinking of her father, Gu Mingqin was so sad that she couldn't cry anymore, she covered her face with her hands, and cried for a while before she raised her head again, sniffed, and continued: "The little girl has been visiting for several days, but she has found nothing, and even her father's usual friends can't say anything abnormal. Just when the little girl was about to give up, Uncle Wang suddenly appeared and inadvertently mentioned the situation to the little girl......"

Speaking of this, she glanced back at the old man beside her, turned to Wu Tianshi again, and Gu Mingqin continued: "The little girl thinks that this matter can be regarded as reliable news, so she persuaded Uncle Wang and the little girl to come to the county government together and explain the situation to Lord Wu......

"Explain the situation? What does it mean? Just by what this old man said, 'It seems to be Dr. Gu'? Wu Tianshi asked rhetorically, glanced at the old farmer beside him, and muttered in his heart that he was nosy.

Wang Laohan obviously ignored what he meant, and hurriedly added with an oath: "My lord, I really saw it, it was really Dr. Gu, and that Mr. He......"

"Did you really see that?" Wu Tianshi couldn't help but sneer, turned back to the old man, and asked, "You just told me that you saw that carriage in the evening. At that time, it was dark, and you can guarantee that you really could see clearly, it was indeed them? Can you guarantee that you really aren't dazzled? And even if what you said is true, what you saw was indeed Gu Jialiang and He Dong, then I want to ask you, who else saw this besides you? ”

"My lord, there was only one grass man on the road at that time......"

"You're the only one?" Wu Tianshi sneered again, "Since this is the case, what you say, this official can't believe it at all." How will this official know if the two of you have joined forces to fabricate evidence and want to blame her? ”

"My lord spares his life, the grass people can swear to the sky, and what the grass people say is true." Wang Laohan shouted anxiously.

"Is it true? If you want the official to believe in you, you can; Find a second person and say the same thing, and the officer will believe that what you say is true. When Wu Tianshi said this, the corners of his mouth rose, and a sneer involuntarily surfaced.

"I'm ......" Wang Laohan lowered his head silently, silent, because he really couldn't help it, he couldn't find a second person, after all, that night on that road, except for the carriage, front and back, left and right, there was only one person left. If this Lord Wu really thinks that he is planting the blame, he will be speechless. I hope that this Lord Wu will not be held responsible, otherwise it will ......
