Chapter 63: Interrogation

Early the next morning, the county magistrate sent people to their residence, saying that they had summoned all the people who Ruan Wushuang said they were going to interrogate yesterday to the yamen, and that they were now invited to try them.

So after the two cleaned up, they immediately went to the official yamen.

"Master Su, here. Seeing Ruan Wushuang and Dugu Liancheng coming side by side, the county magistrate called enthusiastically and greeted him from the hall with his own care.

Seeing that the county magistrate was so enthusiastic and flattering to a person, the expressions of the five villagers present could not help but change, and they thought to themselves what kind of big man was coming today?

"Hmm. Ruan Wushuang replied without being salty, his eyes swept over the people with different expressions standing in the hall one by one, and then he waved his robe and found a place to sit down.

"They are all villagers near the Tang and Luo families, Su Gongzi can ask whatever he wants!" said the county magistrate who sat back on the seat smiled.

"Hmm. Ruan Wushuang nodded, and then his eyes flickered, and it fell on a middle-aged woman. Seeing Ruan Wushuang's gaze fall on her, the woman couldn't help but hang her head.

Ruan Wushuang raised her eyebrows slightly, she wouldn't eat her, how could she be afraid of being like this? She looked at the hand that the woman was holding tightly in front of her waist was trembling slightly.

"Let me ask you, did you hear any movement on the night the Tang family and the Luo family were destroyed?" Ruan Wushuang said casually, her tone was very calm, in order to keep them from being restrained and timid. Without looking away, the little finger of his right hand tapped on the arm of the chair.

In the silence of the public hall, a needle fell to the ground, I am afraid that I can hear it clearly, and the sound of her tapping on the chair is even more clear, as if it is smashed on people's hearts, which makes people feel nervous.

She didn't leave her gaze, only to see them subconsciously glance at each other, you look at me, I look at yours, although the uneasiness was not expressed, but the eyes revealed their nervousness and uneasiness at the moment, and even fear, yes, they were afraid, what were they afraid of? Ruan Wushuang pondered in his heart.

"I ...... We didn't hear anything. Finally, a thin middle-aged man stepped forward.

"Are you sure you didn't hear it?" Ruan Wushuang's eyebrows raised slightly, and his tone was extremely shallow and light, like a feather brushing his ears and temples, very light and light, but it unconsciously gave people an invisible pressure, and she noticed that this man had a momentary hesitation in his eyes after he finished speaking, indicating that this was not the truth, and after he finished speaking, he lowered his head and did not dare to look at her, which proved that he was weak-hearted.

When her words fell, none of the five villagers in the hall moved, and although Ruan Wushuang's eyes were faint, they couldn't help but make the thin man feel his scalp tingle.

The middle-aged woman beside the thin man glanced at Ruan Wushuang, who had a faint look in her eyes, and Dugu Liancheng, who was expressionless but imposing on her side, and raised her elbow and gently turned the thin man.

"You said it!" the middle-aged woman lowered her voice, although she thought she was very quiet, but Ruan Wushuang could still hear it clearly, but Ruan Wushuang didn't say anything, she just had to wait to see what she said. And from this, she can conclude that on the night of the Tang family or the Luo family's destruction, they must have seen something, and the murderer must have done something to them, otherwise they would not have deliberately covered it up like this, trembling, and even full of fear.

The man who was abducted sighed in his heart, glanced at Ruan Wushuang with his eyes, and then at Dugu Liancheng, then licked his dry and flaky lips, and said word by word: "We really didn't see anything." ”

Hearing this, Ruan Wushuang laughed out loud, and except for Dugu Liancheng, everyone present looked at her for some reason, and they didn't know why she suddenly laughed.

She smiled, her eyes swept over the people in front of her one by one, and suddenly the smile came to an abrupt end, leaving only a little coolness, and the arc of the corner of her mouth that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.

"Do you know why I'm smiling?" she said with a smile, not reaching the bottom of her eyes, but a little cold.

"I don't know. The five villagers shook their heads in confusion.

"I laugh at you, pretending not to look like you enough. Her eyes sank, and her tone was calm. Glancing at the villagers whose expressions had changed, she said casually: "In fact, from the beginning, the uneasiness and fear in your eyes revealed what you actually knew. And her hand that was clenched but still trembling. Ruan Wushuang said as he raised his hand to the middle-aged woman who was standing with the thin man.

The woman was shocked, and the hand that was clenched in front of her waist subconsciously turned her back to her back, and her shrunken pupils were a little shocked and looked at Ruan Wushuang in shock.

"And you, when you just spoke, there was a moment of hesitation in your eyes. Ruan Wushuang said step by step.

Hearing this, compared with the woman's small movements, the thin man seemed much calmer, he covered up the weakness in his heart that was seen through, as if he had a clear conscience: "Anyway, we didn't see anything." The thin man's words fell, and the rest of the people echoed him.

Well, they were going to defend to the end, and the more they didn't say anything, the more curious she was about what horrific scenes they had seen, so that the city would be in danger to the point where everyone was in danger.

"I heard that all of you have children and daughters in your family, you must not want a white-haired person to send a black-haired person!" Dugu Liancheng said lightly, and the threat in his words was obvious. These villagers are like stubborn stones, and good words will not work.

"You ......" The thin man trembled, and his wide eyes looked at Dugu Liancheng.

"Huh?" Dugu Liancheng raised his eyebrows, indifferent.

"I advise you to say it, what did you hear or see that night?" Ruan Wushuang glanced at Dugu Liancheng with his spare eyes, and then looked at the villagers whose complexions had gradually changed. Dugu Liancheng sings black face, then she sings white face.

"Don't say it?" Dugu Liancheng's words were cold, and the darkness came out in an instant, and his already cold complexion became a little colder at this moment. The dark and slightly cold phoenix eyes swept over the villagers with different expressions.

"Otherwise, let's talk about it!" said one of the women, who finally choked up, and said with a little helplessness in her voice, and raised her hand to push the thin man in front of her.

Finally, the man sighed, his dejected eyes looked at Dugu Liancheng with a cold look, and finally fixed on Ruan Wushuang's body: "On the night the Tang family was destroyed, we did hear the movement, but we thought that Tang Yan was teaching his family's uncompetitive son again, and when we noticed that something was wrong, when we went out to look, we found that Tang Yan's family had fallen in a pool of blood. ”

"Can you see the murderer?" Ruan Wushuang narrowed his eyes and asked.

Hearing this, the man hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The sky is too dark, and I didn't dare to step forward, so I didn't see it clearly, I only knew that it looked like a monster with a tiger head and a human body." ”

"Tiger head body?" Ruan Wushuang twisted his eyebrows, there was such a mysterious thing?

"What about you? Steady down, Ruan Wushuang asked.

"What we see is also a tiger-headed human body. One of the men chimed in.

"It's all fate! Childe doesn't know, there is a legend in our place, which is about the monster of this tiger's head and human body. The woman sighed.

That's why the so-called curse was born!

"What kind of body shape is this tiger-headed monster?" Ruan Wushuang asked.

"It's... All I could see was that the monster had a very large head and a very small body. ”

"Hmm. Ruan Wushuang snorted lightly, is there really a so-called monster in this world? It's just nonsense, I'm afraid someone is just playing tricks, and this murderer must be a local, so he will use the legend as a feature to create panic among the people in the city after killing people, so as to cover up the fact of killing.

"Why didn't you say it at the beginning?" said the county magistrate who sat down angrily, as if he was a little annoyed, daring that they hadn't been truthfully recruited before?

"My lord, the grass people are also thinking about the lives of this family!" the man suddenly knelt on the ground and said in a voice full of emotion.

"Well, that's it. The county magistrate sighed and waved his hand. He knew the seriousness of this matter, and it was reasonable for him to think about his life.

"My lord, Zhu Dazhuang is here. ”

Hearing this, Ruan Wushuang was slightly stunned, Zhu Dazhuang was the second Zhu in the mouth of the boss of the iron shop yesterday! The county official rolled his eyes impatiently, this Zhu Dazhuang is the most capable of dragging.

"Let him in!" said the county magistrate in a deep voice.

Not long after, a man less than five feet tall, dressed in gray rough clothes, with a gray complexion, gave people the first glance that he was weak, small and dry, and looked malnourished, this Zhu Dazhuang was just the opposite of his name.

"The grass people have seen the official master. Zhu Dazhuang seemed to have seen such a scene for the first time, and walked in with a timid look, and knelt straight to the ground as soon as his legs were weak.

"Come on, it's a wreck, and it doesn't have the momentum it should have. The county magistrate said with great disgust.

Hearing this, Zhu Dazhuang's head hung lower, as if he was extremely ashamed, but in fact, his yellowed and cloudy eyes flashed with a touch of coldness.

"Zhu Dazhuang, wait for which son asks you something, you will give me an honest answer, if you dare to hide it, you will feel better. The county magistrate said viciously, his tone full of threats.

"Yes, yes, yes. Zhu Dazhuang said three words in a row, hung his head, and kept clicking like pounding garlic.

Ruan Wushuang has not taken his eyes off him for a moment since this Zhu Dazhuang came in, she looked at him carefully, and even paid attention to his every move, but on him, in addition to seeing cowardice and cowardice, she did not see the possibility of a murderer, how could such a small person kill the Tang family?

"Zhu Dazhuang, where did you buy this knife?" As he spoke, Ruan Wushuang took out the machete wrapped in Juan Pa from his bosom, and the blood stains on it had been cleaned up.

Zhu Dazhuang propped his hands on the ground, groped forward, looked at it, shook his head and said, "I bought a machete from him, but this machete is not mine." ”

Dugu Liancheng, like Ruan Wushuang, always paid attention to Zhu Dazhuang's actions, although he didn't find anything wrong with him before, until he saw his hand on the ground, Dugu Liancheng's cold and traceless phoenix eyes changed a little.

Although Zhu Dazhuang's whole person looks small and unbearable, let me ask such a small and unbearable person, but his wrists are so strong and powerful? It seems that he has been trained all year round, but it cannot be ruled out that it is due to the reason why he kills pigs all year round.

"Oh, not yours?" Ruan Wushuang raised his eyebrows and said. And she didn't observe those subtleties like Dugu Liancheng.

"yes! my machete doesn't have that pattern. Zhu Dazhuang said categorically.

Hearing this, Ruan Wushuang's heart moved, and her eyes looked at the place he was pointing, she didn't know that there was a small pattern on the side of the machete, but he knew it after a glance?

"How do you know there's a pattern here?" Ruan Wushuang said word by word. As he spoke, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Hearing this, Zhu Dazhuang's eyes flashed with a dark light, and he said without thinking about it: "I found it when I got closer." He smirked twice as he spoke.

Ruan Wushuang glanced at him suspiciously.
