Gao Wenfeng died. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Gao Wenfeng relied on his brother to be the governor of Jiangzhou, although he was nearly sixty years old, he bullied men and women and did all kinds of evil, his death made the people of Qucheng happy, but Zhang Baoer couldn't be happy.

According to Zhang Baoer's thoughts, if Gao Wenfeng can rein in his previous nature, he will no longer embarrass him. However, the people of Qucheng all know that the Gao family has a grudge against Zhang Baoer, and now that Gao Wenfeng is dead, there are many rumors, and many people are discussing in private whether Zhang Baoer has a black hand against Gao Wenfeng behind the scenes.

Zhang Baoer knew that if he couldn't find out the truth quickly, he wouldn't be able to tell if he had a mouth.

Zhang Bao'er was anxiously pacing back and forth in the house, and Uncle Hua came into the house: "Uncle, Gu'er is here!" ”

"I'm waiting for him, let him in!" Zhang Baoer hurriedly said.

"Brother Bao'er, I found out that it was Cheng Qingquan who secretly spread the news, saying that Gao Wenfeng was killed by you.

"I guess he did it! It doesn't matter if it's checked or not, as long as the case can be solved, the rumors will naturally disappear! Zhang Bao'er asked, "Did I find the clues I asked you to check?" ”

Yan Gu scratched his head and said, "I found some of them, but I don't know if it's useful!" ”

"Tell me about it!"

On the day Gao Wenfeng was killed, Mei Xiaoshan passed in front of Gaofu, and he didn't want the Gao family's guard dog to jump out of the door hole all of a sudden, hissing and biting him, Mei Xiaoshan was shocked and annoyed, and kicked the dog and broke his leg. Gaofu's dog was kicked, is this still worth it? In the afternoon of the same day, Gao Wenfeng took the housekeeper and a few housekeepers to Mei Xiaoshan's house to rob and smash, and kicked Mei Xiaoshan's sister Qian'er to the ground, Qian'er hit her head on the threshold, and fainted at that time. Mei Xiaoshan was angry and painful, and threatened to kill Gao Wenfeng. ”

"Mei Xiaoshan? How could it be him? Zhang Bao'er frowned.

Mei Xiaoshan has changed his ways and is no longer a thief, and is doing a small business with the funding of Zhang Baoer, although he doesn't make much money, but there is no problem in living. After taking the right path, Mei Xiaoshan took his sister to live with him, and the brother and sister ran a small restaurant together. Mei Xiaoshan loves his sister very much, and it is obvious that the murderer who killed Gao Wenfeng is very likely to be Mei Xiaoshan.

"What's wrong, Brother Bao'er?" Seeing that Zhang Bao'er stopped talking, Yan Gu asked strangely.

"Nothing! Oh yes! Zhang Bao'er looked at Yan Gu and said, "What did you think about what I told you last time?" ”

"I have no problem going to Chang'an, and I will take those little beggars under my command with me, but I'm a little worried!" Yan Gu said uneasily.

"What are you worried about?"

"Mr. Wei has also talked to me about this matter, I know that this matter is very important to Brother Bao'er, and I am worried that I will not do well and affect Brother Bao'er's big things!"

"What should I do?" When Zhang Bao'er heard this, she relieved herself, patted Yan Gu's shoulder and said, "You just have to rest assured that it won't affect me!" ”

"As long as I can help Brother Bao'er, I can go at any time!" Yan Gu patted his chest and said.

After sending Yan Gu away, Zhang Baoer sent a quick arrester to detain Mei Xiaoshan.

Soon Mei Xiaoshan was brought, and he also found a few silver tickets in the grass in his backyard, and the ticket number was Gao Wenfeng's, which made Mei Xiaoshan's suspicion even more serious.

Zhang Bao'er slapped the shocked wood and asked Mei Xiaoshan to explain how he killed Gao Wenfeng.

Mei Xiaoshan shouted that he was wronged, but he couldn't provide evidence of his alibi last night, and he couldn't explain the origin of those silver tickets. Zhang Baoer decided to detain Mei Xiaoshan first.

After a sleepless night, Zhang Baoer thought of many doubts in this case: On the night Gao Wenfeng was killed, why didn't the dozen or so watchdogs in Gao's mansion bark? Moreover, the courtyard wall of Gaofu is five or six people high, and it is impossible for ordinary people to climb into it? There are two possibilities for this, one is that the murderer is very good at kung fu, and the other is that the murderer is simply from Gaofuzhong. Gao Wenfeng has two wounds on his body, one on his chest and the other in his throat, and the knife is inconsistent, obviously caused by two murder weapons, according to common sense, murderers generally do not carry two murder weapons, so are the murderers two people?

All these doubts can't seem to be explained by Mei Xiaoshan.

The killer may have been someone else.

So could it be Mei Xiaoshan buying a murderer?

It doesn't seem to be very likely.

Mei Xiaoshan is a small business, and his daily income is not much, so it is impossible to have the money to hire any killers?

Besides, if Gao Wenfeng's death was really Mei Xiaoshan's doing, how could he stay at home as if nothing had happened, knowing that he was the most suspicious, and so carelessly left a few Gao Wenfeng's silver tickets in the grass behind his house?

These are very illogical, and the more Zhang Baoer thinks about it, the more certain she is that Gao Wenfeng's death has nothing to do with Mei Xiaoshan.

Someone must have known about the contradiction between Mei Xiaoshan and Gao Wenfeng, and then killed Gao Wenfeng, and finally blamed Mei Xiaoshan.

Zhang Baoer decided to release Mei Xiaoshan first, he thought that as soon as Mei Xiaoshan was released, the real murderer might show up by himself.

Early the next morning, Zhang Baoer took the case and went to court, announcing that Mei Xiaoshan had insufficient evidence for murder and was released and returned home.

Who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, Mei Xiaoshan, who was kneeling under the hall, shouted loudly: "I killed Gao Wenfeng." ”

Zhang Bao'er was taken aback: "Mei Xiaoshan, I have declared you innocent, why do you say that Gao Wenfeng was killed by you?" ”

Mei Xiaoshan cried and said, "Lord Mingjian, Gao Wenfeng was really killed by me. He kicked my sister unconscious, so I'm going to kill him and avenge my sister. ”

Zhang Bao'er asked suspiciously, "Is someone forcing you to admit it?" ”

"No, if you kill someone, you should pay for your life, I just want to die now." Mei Xiaoshan does not change color.

"Then let me ask you, the courtyard wall of the Gao Mansion is five or six people high, how did you climb into it?" Zhang Baoer still doesn't give up.

Mei Xiaoshan said: "I like to climb trees since I was a child, and I have been a thief before, and the courtyard wall of Gaofu can't stop me at all." ”

Zhang Bao'er frowned a few times, and asked Mei Xiaoshan again: "If the person you killed should have a murder weapon, where is the murder weapon?" ”

Mr. Mei said he could no longer remember where he had hidden the knife.

As soon as she heard this, the doubts in Zhang Baoer's heart became even heavier.

It's been less than a day since the crime happened, if it was really Mei Xiaoshan's crime, how could he not remember where the murder weapon was hidden?

If you have already confessed to the murder, why should you hide the murder weapon?

But Mei Xiaoshan resolutely said that Gao Wenfeng was killed by himself, and in desperation, Zhang Baoer had no choice but to put Mei Xiaoshan back in prison again.

That night, Zhang Bao'er came to Gaofu again to investigate carefully, and when she returned to the Yamen, it was already dawn.

Although she didn't sleep all night, Zhang Baoer's face didn't show a trace of tiredness, but a sense of relief.
