Chapter 18: Who is the murderer

"The grass people did come here, but the grass people didn't kill anyone."

Sun Xiang admits to being here, but he doesn't admit to killing.

When Chen Gu heard this, he snorted and shouted, "Didn't kill anyone? What are you doing here without killing anyone? The deceased died of palpitations and fright, and it must have been you who scared him to death when you broke down the door, and you did not kill anyone, but you scared people to death. ”

After Chen Gu said this, many people present felt that this Sun Xiang must be the murderer, this morning, he was the only one who appeared at the scene of the murder, the deceased was not scared to death by him, who else could it be?

Sun Xiang was very uneasy.

"My lord is clear, after the grass people came here, they shouted that Sun Qian's should not, so they slammed open the door, and when they went in, they found that he was dead inside, and they couldn't help but be startled, so they left in a hurry, the grass people really didn't scare him to death, when the grass people knocked on the door and went in, Sun Qian was already dead."

Chen Gu snorted and said, "I still want to quibble, it's not that you scared to death, what are you doing here?" ”

A person who goes to someone else's house in a dignified manner and knocks the door open, this person must be a bad person.

was asked by Chen Gu like this, but Sun Xiang didn't know how to answer for a while.

At this time, Cui Shaoqing was walking back and forth in the inner courtyard, checking, and he listened to Sun Xiang's words, but he was not in a hurry to say anything.

He searched in Sun Qian's bedroom, and soon found that there was a hole in Sun Qian's window, and the regular part of the hole was not very big, and there were some places that were broken by something.

Cui Shaoqing's eyes were slightly condensed, no matter who the murderer was, he was only afraid that through this window hole, he used something to scare the deceased to death.

What could this thing be?

Cui Shaoqing's first thought was the snake, the snake, no one is not afraid of it, at least when he sees it suddenly, no matter who it is, his heart will tremble.

In this small hole, it's perfectly fine to let a snake in.

However, now that it has entered the Mid-Autumn Festival, the snakes in their place have almost hibernated, right?

Even if there is no hibernation snake, but a snake going in, it may not be able to scare Sun Qian's family, after all, after a snake enters, it must hide first, not to scare people.

Under normal circumstances, if a person does not provoke a snake, the snake will not take the initiative to attack a person.

Cui Shaoqing searched back and forth, trying to find some traces of the snake, but he didn't find it, it stands to reason that the place where the snake crawled would leave some marks, but there was no one in the entire Sun Wei family.

Cui Shaoqing looked for it like this, Huang Man'er followed on the side, he was holding a bag of things in his hand, Cui Shaoqing hadn't found it before, and after seeing it at this time, it was a little strange: "What are you holding in your hand?" ”

"Cui Gongzi, this is the pig kidney that I specially asked Lao Yu's family to leave in order to thank you, don't you know, this pig kidney is very hard to find, if it weren't for me often killing pigs for Lao Yu's family, he wouldn't sell me this good thing."

"Pork kidney?" Cui Shaoqing was stunned for a moment, and then he was a little excited.

"I see, I see."

"Cui Gongzi, what is this?"

Cui Shaoqing smiled: "You'll know later." ”

After speaking, he came to Chen Gu, and at this time, Chen Gu was still forcing Sun Xiang to confess, in his opinion, this Sun Xiang was suspicious and must be the murderer, but this Sun Xiang refused to admit his guilt.

"My lord, it's better to take him to the county government and torture him heavily."

Han Qing saw that Sun Xiang refused to confess, so he proposed to be taken back, and he went to prison, and as soon as the torture instrument was put on, he didn't believe that he wouldn't admit it.

Chen Gu thought about it and felt that it could only be like this.

However, at this time, Cui Shaoqing suddenly spoke: "My lord, this Sun Xiang is not necessarily the murderer. ”

Cui Shaoqing opened his mouth, everyone was stunned, everyone almost forgot about him, if he hadn't spoken, everyone wouldn't have thought of him at all.

When Chen Gu heard this, the corners of his mouth showed a contemptuous chuckle, and said, "Oh, how can Cui Xiancheng know this?" ”

Cui Shaoqing smiled lightly, then looked at Sun Xiang, and said, "Are you here to have a tryst with Sun Qian's family?" ”

When these words came out, everyone was stunned, because what Cui Shaoqing said was too abrupt, why did he suddenly say that it was a tryst, if it was a tryst, wouldn't this Sun Xiang have any improper relationship with that Sun Qian's family?

Sun Xiang's face suddenly turned red.

"This Sun Qian's character is not good, in addition to Sun Wei, there is also a good relationship, this is something that the people in the neighborhood know, then Sun Wei went to gamble, and you came here to find Sun Qian's family, but so?"

Sun Xiang hesitated, this fornication with others is a felony, but the crime is not death, but if it is recognized as homicide, it will be troublesome.

So, after thinking about it, he finally nodded.

"My lord Mingjian, the grass people follow Sun Qian's, there is indeed some relationship, that Sun Wei is a good gambler, so that Sun Qian's often guards the empty room alone, that day I passed by his door, chatted with him a few words, this back and forth is familiar, and then there was a relationship, this morning, I saw Sun Wei leave the house, then hurriedly came to find Sun Qian's tryst, but who ever thought about how I knocked on the door, Sun Qian did not open the door, that Sun Qian was a little romantic, I thought he had a new good-looking, in a hurry, he knocked open the door, but who had wanted to go in, found that Sun Qian had died. ”

Chen Gu's face was dark.

"You said this on purpose in order to get away with it?"

"The adults are clear, and what the villain says is true."

Cui Shaoqing saw this and said with a smile: "Lord Chen, what Sun Xiang said is good, this Sun Xiang has an affair with Sun Qian, if Sun Qian is still alive, he will naturally open the door for him, and he needs to open the door, that is to say, before Sun Xiang came, Sun Qian's was already dead, and Sun Xiang came not long after Sun Wei left, so it is self-evident who this murderer is, or who is the most suspected." ”

Saying that, Cui Shaoqing set his eyes on Sun Wei, Chen Gu's expression moved, if what Sun Xiang said was true, then this Sun Wei was indeed the most suspicious.

Sun Wei was seen by Cui Shaoqing like this, and immediately became a little nervous, and hurriedly said: "Wronged, wronged, I played with my lady for a long time last night, so this morning, when I went to the gambling house, my lady was still very sleepy, she locked the door from the inside and went back to sleep, this door is locked from the inside, if I kill it, how can I kill someone?" ”

As soon as Sun Wei said this, everyone immediately felt that it made sense.

This can be said to be a secret room, if Sun Wei kills someone, then who locks it from the inside, that is, when Sun Wei left, Sun Qian's was still alive, and this door was locked by Sun Qian's from the inside.

Everyone felt that Sun Wei was unlikely to be the murderer.

But at this time, Cui Shaoqing smiled lightly: "Sun Qian's death was frightened, so, if you want to kill someone, why do you have to open the door?" ”
