Chapter 093: The Purpose of Kidnapping
The news brought by Jiang Ying doesn't seem to be as important as imagined, after all, there are great variables in the business field, Jin Ding's parents died one after another, and Jin Ding left home, which makes perfect sense.
However, after listening to this, Su Wuming pondered, he felt that Jin Ding was missing, which seemed a little abnormal, and if his family was in the middle of the road, what would he do, he must have known that he had a marriage contract with Qi Fang, so would he come to Qi Fa and propose to marry?
Qi Fa is a businessman, what he does will always be related to interests, now that the Jin family is in decline, he will definitely not marry his daughter to Jin Ding, so is Qi Fa's killing related to Jin Ding?
If Qi Fa opposes this family business, then Jin Ding will have a reason to kill.
After thinking like this for a moment, Su Wuming continued to ask, "Have you ever asked about Jin Ding's conduct?" ”
"Back to the adult's words, I inquired, when this Jinding family was well-off, he did everything wrong, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling all day long, and then the family declined, so he started stealing chickens and dogs, and when he was mentioned, no one called him good."
"So, his character is not good?"
"Yes, sir!"
After listening to Jiang Ying's answer, Su Wuming nodded slightly, a shallow smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, everyone saw him like this, and was about to ask if he remembered anything, but Su Wuming suddenly spoke again: "Order someone to look for Jinding near Hangzhou City, this official believes that he must be near Hangzhou City." ”
"In Hangzhou? Do you think everything here is done by Jinding? ”
"It's not that I think it's all done by Jinding, but he's sure in Hangzhou, send someone down to find it!"
After giving such an order, Su Wuming got up and was about to ask a few monks he had caught last night, but as soon as he got up, he suddenly stopped, and after a little contemplation, he said to Nangong Yan: "There is one thing, I'm afraid I have to bother the lady!" ”
Nangong Yan was bored, and when she heard that Su Wuming had something to do by herself, she suddenly became overjoyed and said, "What do you want me to do if Su Lang?" ”
"Now that Miss Qi Fang has returned to the house, I want the lady to go to the Qi Mansion to protect her safety."
"Su Lang thinks someone will assassinate her?"
"That's right, the monks we captured last night are obviously just minions, the real mastermind behind the scenes has not appeared, if he finds out that we rescued Miss Qi Fang, will he kidnap him again, or kill him?"
After Su Wuming finished speaking, Nangong Yan nodded again and again: "Su Lang, what you said is right, and that Qi Zhong is also very suspicious, if he is for money, he will definitely kill Qi Fang, I will go!" ”
Nangong Yan hurried to Qi's mansion, and she seemed to be really a bit of a heroine at this time.
After Nangong Yan left, everyone went directly to the palace prison.
At this time, the prison was much better than in the summer, but the stench could still be smelled, and after everyone entered the prison, they ordered someone to bring a few monks from last night, and these monks did not do any struggle after seeing Su Wuming, and knelt down very peacefully.
Su Wuming squinted at them, and then asked in a cold tone, "Who are you?" ”
Several people looked at each other, but they didn't answer, not knowing whether they didn't want to say it or couldn't say it.
Seeing that several of them were like this, Su Wuming smiled coldly and asked again, "Why did you kidnap Miss Qi Fang?" ”
A few people didn't answer, which made Tang Xiong angry, he stepped forward and grabbed one person to teach him a lesson, but at this time, Su Wuming suddenly stopped him and said, "Brother Tang, they should indeed fight, but you can't fight like this." ”
Tang Xiong threw the man he had caught on the ground and said, "Brother Su is right, they should be tortured!" ”
"It's not necessary to torture, but it's okay to ask a few of them to take a bath!"
"What, ask them to take a shower?"
Everyone was a little puzzled, but Su Wuming nodded with a light smile, and when Su Wuming ordered someone to bring the pot, they all suddenly understood.
The pot is very large, enough for a person to take a good bath in it, and it can be bathed very comfortably, but after ordering someone to set up the pot, the fire under the pot has been burning, Su Wuming glanced at the monks and asked, "Which of you wants to come first?" ”
The monks are not stupid, they have already understood what Su Wuming meant, so none of them want to come first, but if they don't answer Su Wuming's question, they will have to suffer from this boiling.
They had never suffered from boiling, but they could feel the sensation of water flowing through their skin when it boiled.
Cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of several people, and they had not yet entered the pot, and they had already begun to be afraid.
Su Wuming saw that the few of them were scared, and smiled lightly in his heart, and then suddenly shouted: "Come on, throw them into the pot, and the fire will burn stronger." ”
As soon as these words fell, two officials rushed over, and the monks were already extremely frightened, and without waiting for the monks to arrive, they immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, and were willing to say everything.
Su Wuming looked at them and snorted coldly: "It would have been easy to say this earlier, let's say, who are you, why did you kidnap Miss Qi Fang?" ”
Several people glanced at each other, and finally introduced one person to answer, the man knelt tremblingly, and said: "We were originally a group of bandits, and we were forced by the people of the government to have no way to escape, so we disguised ourselves as monks and mixed into Baiyin Temple, but the life of Baiyin Temple was too hard, we really couldn't stand it, and then we saw Qi Fang, a beauty...... Often in and out of Baiyin Temple, the reward of sesame oil money is very much, we guessed that she is a young lady from a big family, and the family is quite rich, after seeing her, we are a little unbearable, thinking about doing this vote, and then go to other places to be happy, so after Qi Fang left Baiyin Temple, we kidnapped her. ”
The monk's words seemed to make sense, but there were still doubts, Su Wuming looked at him and asked, "How many of you are in this gang of robbers?" ”
"This ......"
"What's this, just say it quickly, don't you want to taste the feeling of being boiled!"
"The adults spare their lives, the small ones say, in addition to us, there is also a boss in our group, everyone calls him Scareye, all these plans are his thoughts, because he is worried that there is no place to hide, he first found a few gangsters to pretend to rob the road halfway, and we followed Miss Qi Fang, after she left Baiyin Temple, immediately kidnapped her, and quietly took her into Baiyin Temple to hide."
The monk's words surprised everyone, and after being surprised, Tang Xiong immediately said happily: "Brother Su, your previous conjecture was right, this Scareye really colluded with this group, no wonder Scareye said that Miss Qi Fang would definitely take that road, it turned out that he didn't want to rob people on that road at all." ”
Things were indeed similar to what Su Wuming had guessed before, but he always felt that something was wrong, he looked at the monk and asked, "Where is Scar's Eye now?" ”
"Since we learned that Master Su came to investigate the case, he has never come forward, and because we are afraid of Lord Su's prestige, we have never asked Qi Fa for money, and we want to wait for Lord Su to leave Hangzhou City, and then ask Qi Fa for money, but I didn't expect that before we could ask for money, he was killed!"
"So you didn't kill Qi Fa?"
"Of course, we are only in it for money, how can we kill people? Besides, after Qi Fa died, who did we ask for money? ”
Now the monk's words completely explained why they didn't borrow money from Qi Fa after kidnapping Qi Fang, and after hearing this, people like Tang Xiong, Wen Wan'er and others were faintly a little proud, because they were afraid of Su Wuming so they didn't dare to take action.
It's just that Tang Xiong and they were proud, but Su Wuming frowned, not knowing what he was thinking, and after a long time, Su Wuming asked again: "What is the true face of the scarred eye?" ”
The monk was taken aback, and one of them hurriedly asked, "Master Su knows that scar-eyed appearance is not his true face?" ”
"All you have to do is answer him for what he really is!"
Several monks glanced at each other, then shook their heads, and one of them hurriedly replied: "We have been following him for so long, only knowing that the scar and eyes are his cover, and our true face, we don't know at all, and he never shows his true face in front of us." ”
"Nonsense!" After Tang Xiong heard the monk's words, he immediately said angrily: "You have followed him for so long, how can you not know his face? ”
"We really don't know, for his own safety, to prevent us from confessing, he really never let us know his true face!"
The monk's words were sincere and reasonable, so that Tang Xiong could only be angry and had nothing to say.
After Su Wuming pondered for a while, he ordered someone to bring those monks back, and at this time, Ding Wei stepped forward and said with a smile: "Master Su really has a set of cases to judge, but now that this group of thieves has confessed and confirmed that it has nothing to do with the cause monk, why don't you let the cause monk go?" After all, there are a lot of believers in Baiyin Temple, and if this monk is locked up for no reason, I am afraid it will cause public resentment! ”
Ding Wei's consideration was not unreasonable, but Su Wuming only smiled lightly and said: "Lord Ding, everything can't just look at the surface, this gang of thieves has done everything to burn, kill and loot, why did they want to shelter Monk Yin last night?" Besides, because the monk is the abbot of Baiyin Temple, there was a kidnapping in his temple, is he not responsible or suspicious at all? Is it possible that several thieves have lived in his monastery for so long, and he even said that he didn't know any of them? ”
Su Wuming asked a few questions in a row, and Ding Wei was speechless to answer, and after a long stalemate, Ding Wei had to sigh and say, "Everything is arranged by Master Su!" After saying this, Ding Wei left the prison.
But after Ding Wei left, Su Wuming immediately said to Song Jingtian: "Looking for the matter of Scareye, it will bother Song to catch the head, this Scarlet Eye occupies a very important position in this case, we must find him." ”
