Chapter 177: Locking up the suspicion

Early the next morning, Zhang Ziying went to find the two brothers, and Qin Lin took Lu Yuanzhi and others to the deputy envoy of Qincha to meet Huang Gonggong and Huo Chonglou.

Knowing that Qin Lin already had a clue, the two were overjoyed and immediately accompanied him to the camp where Chen Wangmo, the chief military officer of Caoyun, was stationed outside the city.

The military camp was set up in a huge village, "The original owner was a Cao businessman, because the two Cao Yun ministers were in Huai'an to open a mansion, and this time they came to Yangzhou to handle the case, they borrowed his village to live temporarily.

In addition to the original premises of the Zhuangyuan, there are also layers of camp tents, and it seems that there are at least more than 1,000 soldiers who are stationed in front of them.

Gonggong Huang had been here twice, and the officials knew that the commander was very polite to him, so when he saw him coming, a Chinese officer flew in to spread the word.

After a while, "three cannons rang out", and Pingjiang Bo Chen Wang Mo personally greeted him. He was a middle-aged man with slightly dark skin, wearing a scarlet robe, a green belt tied around his waist, and a foot mold on his head.

"Father-in-law Huang is early? What progress can be made in the investigation over there? Chen Wangmo shouted from afar.

For this uncle who is in charge of military power, Huang Gonggong didn't dare to take it big, and he put his waist a little" with a smile: "Although the lieutenant has not made progress, he has invited a genius for the uncle who breaks the sun and judges yīn at night. ”

Oh? Chen Wangmo frowned, looked at Qin Lin who was wearing a flying fish suit, and suddenly smiled happily: "Could it be that this Xiǎo brother is General Qin who is like a god in the case of Lao Liu Tang?" ”

Qin Lin is a general of the martial arts, so Chen Wangmo is commensurate with a general, and the old Liu in his mouth "is the guard Liu Shou in the brocade clothes."

Qin Lin smiled slightly, and said, "Uncle praises."

Xia Guan can't talk about judging the case like a god, "It's just a little quick, just to expose the crimes of the shè wolf, so that the charm barely has nothing to hide." ”

Lu Yuanzhi and the others were used to seeing Qin Lin and what King Jing, Shizi, Xiǎo Gongye, and Xiǎo Hou Ye fighting, but they didn't care, but Huang Gonggong and Huo Chonglou were taken aback, and secretly said Who is Chen Wangmo? The earl is a superb, Qin Lin is afraid that he is too full of words, in case he is unhappy, those middle officers, flag officers, and lieutenant officers are staring at them with wide eyes: dare to talk to the uncle like this, "If it wasn't for the deputy envoy Huang Gonggong, they would have shouted and cheered a long time ago; Uncle has been angry a lot these days, "Just wait for him to give an order, and he will beat this brocade-clothed official with a stick."

Chen Wangmo was indeed slightly stunned, feeling that although Qin Lin's attitude was humble, his tone was very confident. Since the case of the fight, no one has ever dared to say so surely, "At first, seeing that Qin Lin was still young, he still seemed to believe it or not", but now he is more sure that he has some ability, otherwise he would not dare to be so confident!

"Good! Sure enough, he is the first young hero in the Jinyi pro-army! Chen Wangmo gave his thumb up: "Today, the official will abdicate and make way for Xian" Please General Qin preside over the trial! After ascertaining the facts of the case, the official will definitely go to the book "for the Qin general Jiang Gong." ”

Qin Lin deliberately stabbed Chen Wangmo with big words, "just to bluff him to obtain the right to preside" or provoke him to be angry, and then proposed to gamble on the case, both of which had the same result.

So Qin Lin proposed to go to the Cao boat where the crime occurred.

It was a first-class ship, with a secret compartment in the middle of the hull, and it was dimly lit.

Qin Lin inspected it carefully and found that there were only two xiǎo windows open on the bulkhead. "Sure enough, there was dust and cobwebs on it, and the iron bars were fastened, and there were no traces of movement.

Look at the dòng where the sewage is discharged, and at the bilge position, the pipe made of large máo bamboo, and the place where it is connected to the cabin is connected with an iron hoop.

The two ends of the secret cabin world, the front and back, the left and right walls, are all made of solid wood, Qin Lin asked Lu Yuanzhi and Niu to shine a big butter candle to illuminate it, and he carefully inspected the wooden seams on his stomach, and there was no trace of prying.

Chen Wangmo was quite impressed when he saw this, and the officials under his command, "and the people of Yangzhou Jinyiwei have come in to inspect more than once, but there has never been an official who is as serious and careful as Qin Lin, and it is like a big girl embroidering huā."

Seeing that Qin Lin withdrew his hand and looked at the dòng place thoughtfully, Chen Wangmo told him that the iron hoop and the iron bar at the window were all cast by the whole iron plate, and there was only a little iron hoop and iron bar from the outside, but in fact, the whole iron plate was buried in the bulkhead, which was specially built for escorting the silver, which can be described as solid.

So, the path that the Silver Hammer was able to take out of the cabin was "the only place left in the Big Mén?" Qin Lin asked. ,

Chen Wangmo nodded without hesitation.

"So, the cao worker who can't enter the inner cabin at all should be innocent, right?" Qin Lin persuaded Chen Wangmo to release the innocent laborers.

But this time, Pingjiang Bo is not poisonous, and he is hesitant, which means that he will wait until the case is solved.

Qin Lin smiled and didn't say anything, in his opinion, it was not difficult to solve this case, and the workers couldn't wait too long.

Immediately return to the camp to interrogate the four generals.

The two of this year's light generals are always directly subordinate to Jiangnan, one surnamed He and the other surnamed Lu, both of whom are commanders; The two generals in Jiangnan, the surname Shi is a thousand households, and the surname Zhang is also a commander.

As soon as it was mentioned in the lobby, the four generals knelt down and shouted injustice: "Ask the uncle to be clear, xiǎo's wrongs are extremely wronged, and it is really a flying disaster......"

Chen Wangmo, who was sitting behind the public seat, pointed at Qin Lin: "Today is the presiding judge of this General Qin" is not as lenient as the official in the past, and those who are interested will be honest! ”

Only then did the four of them notice that a position was set up diagonally next to the public seat, and a deputy Qianhu of the brocade guard in a flying white suit sat high, looking at him too young to speak, but his eyes were really sharp, and his gaze was as sharp as a knife, and it hurt faintly when he stabbed on people.

Knowing that there are most cool officials in the Jinyi Guard, "This person is young and has become a deputy thousand households, I am afraid that he must be a leader, and the four generals are all scared, crying and biting each other.

"General Qin Mingjian! The two of me are the general managers of Jiangnan, and Zhang Mou has already ordered the box the morning before, "The silver is intact, and our affairs are unloaded, how can you bite the two of us?" "Jiangnan's He and Lu shouted injustice.

Mr. Zhang also jumped to his feet and shouted injustice: "God is pitiful, the criminal officer will go back to sleep after locking the mén" The key was tied to the waistband of his trousers, and Shi was still sleeping in the secret cabin "How could it be a case made by the criminal officer?" ”

Na Shi was still unconvinced: "The big mén is tightly closed, and the silver can't go out of the window" Of course, it was you who quietly opened the big mén to steal the silver. ”

Hearing this, Qin Lin smiled slightly, as if he had made up his mind.

Lu Fatzi, who was standing next to him, had his eyes lit up, and asked in a low voice, "Brother Qin, do you know how they stole the silver?" ”

"I don't know", "Qin Lin Shen sè Gujing does not wave."

Lu Fatzi was choked for a moment, "Hi" thought it was ......"

"However, does it really have to know how to do the crime in order to lock down the criminals?" Qin Lin laughed.

In fact, most of the so-called "closed room murder cases" reasoned by Japanese are senseless and virtual, and they rarely happen in reality.

Because the real solution to the case is confirmed by whether there is a motive, the time of the crime, and the evidence at the scene, it is meaningless for the criminal to set up a secret room to hide the means of committing the crime. Delineate the circle of suspects according to the motive and time of the crime, "as long as the footprints, fingerprints, máo hair and other evidence are extracted at the scene" or a subtle splattered blood spot is found on the criminal's shoes and clothes, if it is a poison murder case, find the way for the criminal to obtain the poison "This is enough to finalize the case, what do I care about your bullshit room?"

Cracking is not an intellectual game played by the investigators and the criminals, no matter how clever the secret room is, even Sherlock Holmes is helpless" As a result, the investigators found the victim's blood stains in the seams of the criminal's coat, and everything in front of them was meaningless.

In reality, such as murder without motive and wandering crimes, "the difficulty brought to the investigation is far greater than the seemingly clever murder in a closed room" because you can't lock the scope of the suspect, "looking for a needle in a haystack in the vast sea of people, it is easy to talk about the year."

And now that Qin Lin has a general scope for this case, no matter what kind of fog the criminal sets up, it is the most feasible way for the black tiger to dig out the criminal and find out the criminal directly.

"Fatty, which of them do you think has the most suspicious confession?" Qin Lin asked with a smile.

Lu Yuanzhi touched his head and thought for a while, and suddenly realized: "Mr. Shi!" Qin Lin nodded, others said that they did not commit the crime for various reasons, but he was thinking that the silver could not go out of the cabin, and this kind of technique was wrong to ask the case officer.

For example, in a murder case, I knew through the bloodstained evidence that the criminal had killed someone, so why did I have to know what knife the criminal used, how many slashes he made, and whether he swung it from the left or from the right? These are the confessions of the criminal during the interrogation!

Back to this case, "The silver disappeared that night, no matter how it disappeared, because others couldn't get in, even if they took the key to open the mén, they couldn't help but wake up the people inside, so Shi Jian in the cabin was always the only one who could commit the crime!"

After Qin Lin made a secret visit and ruled out all possibilities, the only possible thing left was on Mr. Shi. ,

"Come on, the surname Shi's words are not true, give me a big punishment to wait!" , Qin Lin threw the fire stick down.

Mr. Shi was taken aback and howled and cried out.

Chen Wangmo also hesitated, in his opinion, Qin Lin was too cool, how could he be directly executed without even asking about the case? Could it be that this person has a false name, just a cruel cool official?

A scribe in a square scarf and Confucian costume walked out of the back hall and whispered a few words in Chen Wangmo's ear, "This Pingjiang Bo smiled and said to Qin Lin, "General Qin, now that the case is unknown, I am afraid that if you rashly move the punishment, I am afraid that it will be a trick!" Qin Lin smiled and told Chen Wangmo his analysis, "Since it is true that the hull of the ship was much lighter that night in Sanwan, and all the silver boxes were empty, and it was impossible for others to empty 500,000 taels of silver without alarming Shi Zong, then he must have something to do with this crime."

As for what fish leaps over the dragon mén, and how did the silver go, just ask, "The content of the criminal's confession, why should I think clearly for him in advance?"

Unexpectedly, Chen Wangmo whispered a few words to the middle-aged scribe, shook his head again and again, and said: "Although you can't believe in the things of the gods and monsters, you can't disbelieve it, Shi Jiang always has great ability, and you can't turn the silver from the cabin, and the heavy punishment is heavy and beaten into a trick, but it ......."

Qin Lin frowned when he heard this, and he laughed and laughed, he was pretending to be a god and a ghost in Xinzhou, but he didn't know that he had encountered a god and a monster in Yangzhou.

Later generations did not believe in this set, and the disappearance of the silver could only fall on Shi Zong, but there are still gods and monsters in this generation, "It can be a strange force to take away the silver, and before the means of committing the crime are identified, you can't blindly torture Shi Zong!"

It seems that he still has to understand what technique he used, Qin Lin looked at Mr. Shi with a sly smile on the corner of his mouth, and tapped his fingers: You are dead
