Chapter 281: The Truth Comes Out
[Ran^ζ^Library][]. []. Wu Song has been busy with Qingzhou's military affairs recently, so he occasionally comes to Wu Zhi, and Wu Zhi asked Zhu Wu to live in the restaurant with peace of mind, relax in Qingzhou for a few days, and introduce him to Wu Song after a few days. γRan Library (7764)γ
In fact, as long as Wu Zhi sent someone to call Wu Song, Wu Song would come to see Wu Zhi no matter how busy he was.
However, Wu Zhi has a case at hand that has not been solved recently, and he is in a top priority, where does he have the heart to toss this matter.
Zhu Wu naturally understood that he was not in a hurry at this time.
Wu Zhi did not wait too long after ordering Shi Qian to move that day, only two days later, Shi Qian came over with a relaxed pace to report the results of the investigation to Wu Zhi.
"Sure enough, as expected by the big officials, Liu Ke, the eldest son of Liu An's family, really has a problem, and the problem is not simple!" Time Shifts.
"Humph!"
Hearing Shi Qian say this, a big stone in Wu Zhi's heart finally fell, and it seems that this bizarre theft case has come to the bottom of the day.
"Tell me, what did you find?" Wu Zhi asked quietly.
"Since the last time the big official asked me to investigate the eldest son of Liu An's family, I sent someone to secretly monitor his eldest son Liu Ke that night, but we didn't find Liu Ke in the Liu family, and in the end, I found Brother Xiao to use all his eyeliner, and finally the big official, where do you guess we found Liu Ke?"
"Where? Say. β
Wu Zhi's tone was a little impatient, he wasn't interested in Shi Qian, but he had chatted with Zhu Wu too much recently, and that thing was always halfway talking, and Wu Zhi had no patience at all now, and he just wanted to listen to a paragraph at once.
After Shi Qian felt that Wu Zhi seemed to be in a bad mood, he didn't talk nonsense, and replied: "Finally, we saw him in the largest gambling house in the north of the city, and this guy was sweating and shaking dice inside!" Shi Qian sneered and continued: "His home was stolen, and he still has the money and heart to gamble, there must be a ghost among them." So I sent people to watch his every move, and at the same time mobilized manpower to investigate him in detail. β
Shi Qian said in a deep voice: "Soon we figured out all the details of Liu Ke, and sure enough, we found Liu Ke's big problem in the recent period!" β
Wu Zhi raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the problem?" β
"This Liu Ke is a bad gambler, he hangs in the casino every day, and he can't go home a few times a month, and Liu An is helpless against his son. We found out that half a month before Liu Anjia's silver treasury was stolen, Liu Ke suddenly disappeared for three days! Shi Qian paused and continued: "In the past three days, no one has seen Liu Ke in any casino in Qingzhou. β
Wu Zhi looked sideways at Shi Qian, it was not easy to investigate in such detail.
"Then, I secretly looked through the accounts of the casino before Liu Ke disappeared, and found that Liu Ke suddenly owed a huge debt to the casino before he disappeared!" Shi Qian continued.
Wu Zhi nodded, with the light skills and means of the times, the accounts of the casino are not casually flipped.
Shi Qian continued: "This huge debt was owed by Liu Ke overnight, and according to our investigation, it is likely that this is a loan shark behind the casino. β
Wu Zhi's last newspaper exposed usury was just to crack down on Huang Zhi, in fact, even if Huang Zhi didn't do it, someone else would do it, and the ban couldn't be banned.
Then three days later, Liu Ke showed up, still eating, drinking, gambling, and gambling, at ease, as if nothing had happened, and then after a while, his family's treasury was stolen! On the day the silver vault was stolen, Liu Ke happened to be at home. β
"It seems that Liu Ke teamed up with a loan shark to steal their family's treasury." Wu Zhi speculated, "But based on this alone, it can only be judged that Liu Ke is the most suspicious, is there any evidence found later?" β
"Yes!" Shi Qian immediately said, "With the line of Liu Ke and usury, I went on to re-investigate several suspects in the original Liu Mansion, and found that they did not seem to have any suspicion on the surface, but if it is linked to Liu Ke and usury, this suspicion is extremely big!" β
"How?"
"On the surface, there are not many key suspects in this theft, only a few guards who guarded the door that night, and the driver of the ice truck!" Shi Qian smiled, "But in fact, the maids up and down the Liu family are all suspects, and they are all cooperating with this theft case!" β
Wu Zhi was taken aback, and immediately calmed down, waiting for Shi Qian to continue to explain, since he dared to say so, there must be a good reason.
"First of all, the guards, two of the guards grew up with Liu Ke since childhood, and according to the other guards' recollections, when the shift changed that night, Liu Ke passed for a while, and they talked to the two guards alone for a while. But it was only for a while, and it was Liu Ke again, so the other guards didn't care. Shi Qian continued: "There is also the driver who pulled the ice car, we didn't have any suspicions about this person when we originally investigated, but now, the suspicions on him are bigger, this person is a loan shark!" β
Wu Zhi's heart was settled, and the case finally became clear.
"It seems that it is really Liu Ke and the loan shark who have joined forces and stole his family's property! Only Liu Ke was able to steal the key to Liu An's silver vault, and the two guards should also help carry the property, which should be when the ice truck left after unloading the ice. Wu Zhidao.
"The big official is right." Shi Qian said: "In fact, the ice truck does not pass through the silver warehouse, but the ice truck can pass through the silver warehouse, and after taking the property in the silver warehouse, it can also get out of the Liu family, this process is not easy at all, so I said that all the subordinates of the Liu family participated in this theft!" β
Wu Zhi nodded, indeed, if the ice car wanted to smoothly transport the belongings from the small courtyard of the silver store, it was impossible for the Liu family not to be aware of it.
"However, since they are all involved, why didn't any of them show their secrets during the previous investigation?" Wu Zhi was still puzzled, he didn't believe that the psychological quality of the Liu family's maids and servants was so good, and they could still keep their mouths shut when they were interrogated.
The more people there are, the harder it is to keep secrets.
"It's not surprising that although they were all involved in the theft, they ...... I don't know! Shi Qian smiled and explained: "The key is Liu Ke, he is the eldest young master of the Liu family, and any subordinate can drive him at will." At night, Liu An and his female dependents rested in the backyard. When the ice car passed by a certain location, Liu Ke only needed to get away with the maids and family members there for a short time in advance, and he could smoothly let the ice car go out unnoticed. β
After listening to Shi Qian's words, Wu Zhi was slightly amazed, although the method of this theft case is simple, but the plan is very thorough, if it is not for Liu Ke, it can be said that there is no flaw.
"Now that the process is clear, has any evidence been collected?" Wu Zhi asked.
These are all reasoning made by Shi Qian based on clues, and if you want to solve the case, you need real evidence.
"I found out, the current guard and the coachman have been controlled by me, Liu Ke is also closely monitored by us, and I have also found the lair of the loan shark, presumably all the Liu family's property is there." Shi Qian took a deep breath and said, "This time I came here to explain the case to the officials, and secondly, to ask the officials to make a decision, what should I do next?" β
Wu Zhi pondered for a moment when he heard this, now that the case is clear, the evidence is in front of him, just wait for him to give an order, and the case will be closed.
"In this way, let Zhang Qing and Sun Erniang and his wife get rid of the old nest of loan sharks first! Use the smoke directly, don't let go of any of them! Wu Zhi said coldly, "Tell me where Liu Ke is?" I'll go to the government and take the officials to arrest him!" β
This matter is still justified in the name of the government, and the reason why Wu Zhi asked Sun Erniang and his wife to end the loan shark first was because he was afraid that they would be alarmed when Liu Ke was arrested, so they let them run away.
By now, Wu Zhi's main purpose is not to solve the case, but to defeat the loan shark gang in Qingzhou!
