Chapter Ninety-Six: Forced Cooperation

When the people of the town heard that the murderer's clothes were in rags, everyone became excited, and with such important evidence, the murderer would soon be caught!

Of course, Wu Eryou also heard this, he was the most excited, immediately stood up, walked to the door of the melon and fruit shop, looked at Zheng Gangling, and said: "Brother Yun, did you hear, I found the fragments of the murderer's clothes, as long as I find a good dog, I can catch the murderer and avenge my brother and sister-in-law!" ”

Brother Yun didn't say anything, Wu Er turned around, but saw that Brother Yun's face was still ugly, as if he had a serious illness, but he was obviously fine this morning, and it was impossible for him to get sick after only half a day's work!

Brother Yun saw that Wu Er had turned around, so he said, "What pieces of clothes, what windows, why didn't I understand?" ”

Wu Er had an oh sound, and then he remembered that when he went to the backyard to see the footprints, Brother Yun was not present, so he said: "Brother Yun, you went to arrest the shopkeeper of Ximen at that time, so I didn't see how to investigate the case." The county magistrate and classmate Li found the back window, well, you don't know that there is a bathroom in my house, and there is a window in the bathroom that is rushing to the backyard, and the murderer escaped from this window, but left two footprints! ”

Brother Yun had a surprised expression on his face, and he said, "Left footprints? This, this can't be...... Let's do it! ”

Wu Eryou said: "It was really stayed, classmate Li analyzed it, it was the murderer who sat in the window for a while, checked the situation in the backyard, and then jumped down, accidentally left footprints, he jumped on the firewood stack." Well, it is estimated that it was too dark when he jumped, and there were nails on the window that scraped off the fabric of his clothes, but the murderer himself did not know! ”

Brother Yun swallowed his saliva with great difficulty, and said, "Yes, if you have this piece of cloth, then, then you can catch the murderer?" Scratch with a dog, ah, yes, a dog's nose is very good! ”

Wu Eryou nodded again and again, and said, "Yes, as long as the dog smells the rag, you can find the bloody murder clothes, and then you can determine who the murderer is!" ”

He saw that Brother Yun really looked like he was sick, so he said with concern: "Brother Yun, if you are uncomfortable, go into the house and lie down, it is estimated that you are suffering from some wind and cold, lie down more and drink some hot water!" ”

Brother Yun shook his head and said, "My stomach hurts a little, it's convenient for me to go out!" ”

"My stomach hurts, could it be that I have a bad stomach?" Wu Eryou asked.

Brother Yun shook his head and said, "Maybe, I'll go and squat, you don't have to worry about me, let's see how the county magistrate solves the case!" With that, he walked out of the shop.

It just so happened that Zheng Gangling started to speak over there at this time, and Wu Eryou no longer paid attention to Brother Yun, after all, it was his brother and sister-in-law's case that was more important in comparison.

Zheng Gangling was scolding the officers and telling them to find the dog quickly, but the officer said that the dog used to solve the case needed to be trained, and if an ordinary dog was used, it might not be possible to find the murderer according to the smell on the rags.

Moreover, it is nothing if you can't find the murderer, if you find the wrong murderer and treat the innocent person as the murderer, wouldn't it be very bad!

As a county commander, seeing that his subordinates were lazy, he was naturally angry, so Zheng Gangling loudly reprimanded the officer, and almost the whole town heard it.

Of course, the people still bow their heads and do their work, even if the county commander reprimands the officer, they don't dare to laugh out loud, the officer can't afford to provoke the county order, can't he still provoke them!

When Zheng Gangling lost his temper, an errand officer rode on a horse and ran back in the direction of the county office, it is estimated that he went back to the county to find a dog, and there are dogs in the small market town, but it is okay to watch the door, and it is used to solve the case, it is not so smart!

After waiting for a while, Zheng Gangling became impatient, he stood up and said loudly: "Folks in the town, which of you has a dog?" ”

The county magistrate asked whose dog was there, and he didn't ask whose dog was smart enough to help solve the case, so the people of the family shouted: "Report to the county, there is a dog in the villain's house, it's a black dog!" ”

As he spoke, the man took his black dog out, but the black dog saw a big cat lying on the corner of the street, and it immediately barked at the big cat, and the people didn't pay attention, and let the black dog break free from the rope and run towards the big cat!

When the black dog pounced on the big cat, the big cat suddenly arched its back and meowed, and the black dog stopped, and didn't dare to pounce on it, just barked at the big cat!

All of a sudden, the small market town was in a hurry with the sound of cats barking and dogs barking!

The people were very embarrassed, and said to Zheng Gangling: "County Zun, the dog of the villain's family...... It's a little stupid, but it's not bad, it's not a special stupid ......."

Zheng Gangling waved his hand and sat down again, he waved his hand and said to the officers: "What are you doing in a daze, don't you go around and see if there are any dogs that can be used!" ”

The servants agreed in unison, and the officer who was sent out by Li Rizhi to find the dog said: "Wait, everyone come around, I will teach you how to find a dog, only by using my method can you find a really good dog!" ”

The officers gathered around, and after a while, they scattered and began to look for dogs in the town, but instead of going from house to house, they looked around, and some of them even ran outside the small market town!

Many people are very puzzled, what are the servants looking for, and they have found it outside the town, could it be that they think the domestic dog is too stupid, so they want to find the wild dog, they think the wild dog is smart? Not necessarily!

Time pushed forward, a quarter of an hour ago, Wu Ji steamed cake shop.

Li Rizhi asked the messenger to escort the Ximen shopkeeper, and when he entered the store, he sat on a stool, and the messenger pressed the Ximen shopkeeper to the ground and asked the Ximen shopkeeper to kneel for Li Rizhi.

Li Rizhi looked at the shopkeeper of Ximen and said: "You are not a good thing, even if you didn't kill people, but they are definitely not a good thing!" ”

The shopkeeper of Simon was very embarrassed at this time, but he didn't care, as if Li Rizhi was not sarcastic, and the shopkeeper of Simon said: "Yes, yes, the villain is not a good thing, as long as you don't kill the villain, the son says what the villain is, the villain is what the villain is!" ”

Li Ri knew: "Give you a chance to wash yourself, if you can't make good use of this opportunity, you just wait to kill your head!" ”

He said to the officer: "Prepare a rag to gag his mouth at any time, and find another chopstick!" ”

Finding rags and chopsticks in the cake shop is so easy that one messenger immediately finds a rag and prepares it to block the mouth of the shopkeeper at any time, while the other has a chopstick in his hand, but he doesn't know what to do!

Li Rizhi said to the officer: "I asked you to gag his mouth, you will plug it, lest he say something he shouldn't say, if he doesn't answer well, use chopsticks to stab his eyeballs blind, he has two eyeballs, so there are two chances!" ”

The two errand officers looked at each other, it was simple to gag with a rag, not to mention using a rag, it was no problem to use stinky socks, but stabbing the eyes with chopsticks, this would definitely not work, Xingyang County was under the governance of Zheng Gangling, and the treatment of prisoners was not so dark!

The shopkeeper of Simon was frightened, he thought that Li Rizhi was telling the truth, and begged for mercy repeatedly, claiming that he was a bad thing, just asking for his life, of course, don't blind him, he is willing to be a cow and a horse to serve the son!

Li Ri knew: "On the night of the crime, you ran out of this store, did you close the door?" ”

The shopkeeper of Ximen didn't think about it, so he shook his head and said: "The villain just wanted to leave quickly, how could he still have the heart to close the door, the villain didn't close the door!" ”

"But according to the apprentices, when they came in the morning, they found that the door was closed, although there was no latch, but it was also closed, and it was not closed by you, but by whom?" Li Rizhi asked.

The shopkeeper of Simon shook his head and didn't know, he really didn't know who came back to close the door, I think it should be the murderer, it can't be a passerby, how can anyone pass by in the middle of the night.

Li Rizhi asked again: "So when you entered the door just now, do you remember who closed the door?" ”

The shopkeeper of Ximen was stunned, he was escorted in front of him, who closed the door behind, how did he know, the back of his head did not have eyes, but he didn't know why, of course, he didn't dare to say that it was Li Rizhi, so he pointed to an errand officer, that is, an errand with a rag in his hand, and said: "The villain saw that he closed the door!" ”

Li Rizhi snorted and said, "The voice is too small, I can't hear it!" He waved his hand and motioned to the other servant to poke the shopkeeper in the eye with his chopsticks.

The officer now understood that this was meant to scare people, so he pretended to be vicious and stabbed his chopsticks into the eyes of the shopkeeper of Simon, and of course, just a few inches in front of his eyes, the chopsticks stopped!

The shopkeeper of Simon screamed in fright, he closed his eyes, thinking that the chopsticks were really about to poke his eyes, and he shouted: "The villain saw that he closed the door!" ”

After shouting this, Li Rizhi immediately signaled another messenger to quickly plug the mouth of the shopkeeper of Simon with a rag, lest the shopkeeper of Simon say anything else, such as begging for mercy, not stabbing his eyes, or other words.

After waiting for a while, when the eyes of the shopkeeper of Ximen opened and his mood stabilized, Li Rizhi began to ask questions again.

Li Rizhi asked: "When you went upstairs and heard a sound coming out, you didn't dare to look at it at that time, so the next morning, when you went to look, did you find that the murderer escaped from the window of the bathroom?" ”

The servant took out the rag from the mouth of the shopkeeper of Simon, who was frightened just now, and tears flowed out, he nodded and said: "Yes, yes, the villain also found out, and the murderer escaped from the window!" ”

"When you found this, you felt very lucky, if the murderer didn't run away at that time, but came downstairs to kill you, you would already be a dead body at this time!" Li Rizhi said with a smile.

Seeing that Li Rizhi's attitude had improved, the shopkeeper of Ximen was shocked for a while, nodded and said: "Yes, the villain was really scared at the time, but he didn't expect to run into the murderer, and he really didn't dare to go to someone else's house in the middle of the night in the future, I really don't know what terrible things will happen." ”

Li Rizhi said again: "That Wu lady was stabbed several times and shed a lot of blood, so will there be blood on the murderer's clothes?" ”

This answer is too easy to answer, the murderer killed Mrs. Wu, Mrs. Wu not only has injuries on her body, but also on her neck, that blood must have flowed a lot, it is normal for the murderer to have blood on his clothes, if there is no blood splashed, it is abnormal!

The shopkeeper of Simon hurriedly replied: "If you return to Gongzi, there will be blood on his clothes!" ”

Li Rizhi snorted and said, "Will there be blood on his clothes, or, will there be blood on his clothes?" ”

The shopkeeper of Simon did not understand the difference between the two sentences, but he said, "There is blood on his clothes!" ”

"It's too quiet!" Li Rizhi gestured to the errand with chopsticks in his hand.

The officer didn't use chopsticks to scare him this time, but just shook the chopsticks in front of the eyes of the shopkeeper of Simon, and the shopkeeper of Simon shouted: "There is blood on his clothes!" ”

This time, without Li Rizhi's signal, the errand with the rag in his hand stuffed the rag into the mouth of the Ximen shopkeeper again, and he was a little anxious, and the Ximen shopkeeper rolled his eyes, and was almost blocked to the point of being out of breath!

Li Rizhi snorted, stood up, stretched out a finger in front of the shopkeeper of Ximen, and said, "How much is this?" ”

The shopkeeper of Simon had just finished rolling his eyes, and just happened to see this finger, the rag was pulled out of his mouth, and he immediately said, "It's one!" ”

Li Rizhi withdrew his finger, but said, "You are wrong, now poke his eyes blind!" ”

"The villain is absolutely not mistaken, ah!" When the shopkeeper of Simon saw that the chopsticks were getting closer and closer to his eyes, he couldn't help but scream, and wanted to struggle to escape, but he was held down by the messenger, and his mouth was blocked again!
