Four days have passed since Wang's case, and there is still no progress, Ding Zhangqi's face is blue, this case is like a hot potato, he is really uncomfortable to burn, the intervention of the small county lord and the misarrest of the two businessmen who have been basically determined, have made Ding Zhangqi sit on pins and needles.

Ding Zhangqi is obviously in a predicament now, he is not a descendant of Yanhu City.

Ding Zhangqi has lived in Jiangnan since he was a child, and since he was a child, he has loved to use guns and sticks, and he is a good man.

Ten years ago, Ding Zhangqi moved his family to Yanhu Lake and became an ordinary catcher in the city government.

I have to say that Dasong's criminal investigation system is quite good, compared to the quick arrest of the head in the yamen between the rivers, Ding Zhangqi pays attention to evidence to solve the case, does not abuse the punishment, his talent, ability and professionalism are deeply appreciated by the city lord, and he has been repeatedly promoted and rewarded for more than seven years, and he is also a well-known figure in Yanhu.

After the small county lord toured the song, he persuaded the city lord to reform the system of the city government, and Ding Zhangqi was able to become the first director of the new Jin Bureau.

"You can't lynch yourself" and "you must use evidence to convict" This is the biggest difference between the new school and the old school, and he just committed this taboo.

In addition to solving the case, the top and bottom always need to be explained, and the two merchants were arrested by mistake, but in fact, there is nothing, asking and inquiring, checking and checking, all said in the past, but they used a punishment for quick success and quick profit, and they didn't get the desired result, so someone needs to be responsible.

The only thing he can do now is to solve the case as soon as possible, so that he can settle accounts in the future, or have a saying.

The confession can't be asked, Ding Zhangqi looked at the Wang file in his hand, his brows were tightened, as if he was pondering some key point, the whole case now seems to have no breakthrough point, the only thing that made Ding Zhangqi feel that he needed to wonder was that the original suspect Chi Qiu once said that he drank at night with Tongyu Zen Master and Jiang Langzhong, and only had the confession of Tongyu Zen Master at hand, and there was no Jiang Langzhong.

The colleagues in the medical hall said that Jiang Lao was in charge of the procurement of medicinal materials this time, and he left before dawn, accompanied by two of Captain Li's subordinates and a mule cart.

Ding Zhangqi muttered: "Generally, the purchases are in the surrounding medicine stores, and the exchanges are only two or three days, why haven't you come back after four days?" Could there be some mystery? ”

Solving the case requires a lot of manpower and material resources, feeling out, confessions, through the confessions of each person, to find a breakthrough point in solving the case, or to confirm whether someone is lying, sometimes even two or three times multiple confessions, in order to confirm whether everyone's statement is correct, whether there are contradictions before and after, and spell out the behavior map of everyone on the day of the crime.

Obviously, Jiang Langzhong's confession is a fragment and needs to be filled.

"Hold the flag, it's not good!" Ding Jincha came to the front in a little panic.

"What's wrong?" Ding Zhangqi quickly stood up and said in a deep voice.

"Another homicide." Ding Jincha grabbed the water cup and took a sip, thinking that the flag was in prison, but he didn't expect it to be in the study, but it was easy to find.

"Who? Where? ”

"Jiang Lao, Xiaoyue Lake." Ding Zhangqi has only one daughter, Ding Jincha is called Ding Wei, Ding Zhangqi's cousin, although he has no talent in handling cases, but his brain has always been bright, Ding Zhangqi treats him as his own son, and Ding Wei goes in and out of the study quite casually.

"The messenger from the post house came to report the case, saying that Feiyan and the county lord are there, let's go quickly."

Ding Zhangqi frowned: "Who found out?" How long have you been dead? ”

"It seems to be Chi Qiu, saying that the person has been soaked for a few days, it is a sinking corpse, the details are not clear, Xiao Er was also sent by Feiyan, so he took a look outside."

"Chi Qiu again?" Generally, the people who find the body have certain suspicions, and in the Wang case, Chi Qiu was the first suspect, and now he is the person who found the body in the Jiang Lao corpse sinking case, which made Ding Zhangqi suspicious.

When I saw the shopkeeper, I didn't get more information.

Ding Zhangqi led a few capable people to ride first, and just after walking a mile, Ding Zhangqi shouted: "Yu'er, you go and invite Yan Zhangying, if Yan Zhangying can't get out, let him send a master over." ”

Ding was puzzled.

Ding Zhangqi said: "If the deceased is Jiang Lao, then the food soldiers who went with him must be involved, they are the people of the patrol battalion, and they have to let Yan Zhangying sit in charge." ”

Ding Wei suddenly realized that Yanhu City was just a small city before, and all the things in the city, such as taxation, civil affairs, public security, and even city gate security, were under the control of the city government.

Yanhu City is regarded as an independent prince, and also has a strong territorial security needs, and the city defense battalion is also equal to the standing army in the city, responsible for the patrol of various places on duty, and the patrol of other walled cities in the territory.

If Jiang Lao's matter was really related to the two soldiers, it would indeed be more appropriate for the patrol battalion to send a leader to the jury.

Ding Wei secretly sighed that he couldn't imagine this layer, and ordered the horse to go to the patrol camp.

Ding Zhangqi thought a lot along the way, and when he arrived at the post house, he found that what he wanted was useless except for asking Ding Wei to go to the patrol camp to invite people.

When his daughter Feiyan told him what happened to the body he found, Ding Zhangqi raised his eyebrows slightly, and he knew that this discovery was completely accidental, and to put it bluntly, Chi Qiu was not suspicious.

Yan Su'er also briefly introduced the autopsy situation, judging from the corpse spots, he has been dead for three or four days, Jiang Lao has traces of heavy knocking on the back of his head, but his eyes are bloodshot, he was drowned.

In other words, he was knocked unconscious and drowned in the pond, and the specific situation needs further investigation.

Ding Zhangqi pushed aside the crowd and lifted the white cloth, Jiang Lao's body had been soaked in water for a long time, and his body was swollen terribly.

He sighed, Jiang Lao is a skilled doctor, and he is willing to give, not to mention in the medical hall, he is quite famous in Yanhu, and he can peek into it from the moist eyes of some of the surrounding people, Ding Zhangqi feels that the burden on his body is very heavy.

"Where's Chi Qiu?"

Ding Feiyan coughed, for fear that his father would ask about the situation at the time, it was true that Yan Su'er chased and killed Chi Qiu, causing him to accidentally fall into Xiaoyue Lake for a while, but she and Su'er teased a man by the water, the Ding family is considered to be from the army, but the discipline at home is quite strict, if the father knows, he will not be punished, and he said a little embarrassed: "That guy has been splashing in the water for a long time, and he feels bad luck and goes to bathe." ”

Ding Zhangqi observed how powerful his words and looks, his daughter had been with him for eighteen years, seeing that her cheeks were red and her expression was unnatural, he knew that there must be a hidden feeling: "Oh? What about that? When did my daughter learn this kind of market talk? ”

Feiyan's heart is not good, his father is so powerful, there was a case six years ago, a nobleman died violently at home.

The cause of the case has not been found, and Ding Zhangqi, who was still a fast arrester at the time, had no chance to investigate the case, so he could only be responsible for recording confessions to some servants who were not present at the time, and one of the servants did not use honorifics in his speech, but he was recognized as the most pleasing servant of the deceased, which aroused his idea.

Ding Zhangqi followed the vine alone, and finally broke the alibi evidence of the servant, became a blockbuster, and has since gained a firm foothold in Yanhu City.

With Feiyan's tutor, even if he walks in the rivers and lakes, prisons, and markets, in the face of all kinds of people, he will either keep his mouth shut or call him decently, and the frivolous word "that guy" will never be used indiscriminately.

Feiyan sensed his mistake, straightened his waist, wiped his nose with his backhand, and took measures in an instant, just about to speak, he was interrupted by Ding Zhangqi, he knew his daughter too well, if there was something wrong, she wouldn't be in a hurry to speak?

Feiyan's word, a look of impatience, Ding Zhangqi is sure that his daughter has a ghost in her heart, and the thing that can make her daughter have a ghost must not be mentioned in front of so many people, rather than watching her clumsy performance, it is better to go home at night and ask for clarification.

Before everyone could react, the father and daughter of the Ding family finished a conversation.

"A few of you find a few stable ones, carry Jiang Lao to the house, and go to find Xiao You."

Ding Zhangqi's eyes were gentle: "County lord, you are the main knife?" ”

"This is natural." Yan Su'er also had some drums in her heart, this corpse was too ugly, but her mouth was still quite hard.

"Then let Xiaoyou observe and learn."

Ding Zhangqi's cold eyes swept away, Ding Wei was not there, he should also go to the gate of the Pufu Hall, the scene of Xiaoyue Lake is obviously not the first scene, there are many people, and there is not much collection value: "You, stay here and search for it, you go to the post house, drain the water of Xiaoyue Lake, send someone down to touch it, find out the stone for me, and the others will follow me." ”

After arranging all the way, I went to the gate of the post house and prepared to ride a horse to the universal salvation hall.
