The reason why Jiang Ping is likely to kill is very simple, that is, because he is angry in his heart and wants revenge.

And it is not impossible for people, in addition to the fact that many years have passed, because this murder is not very reliable, and then there is Jiang Ping, even if he wants to hate people, he should hate Zhao Tong, even if he mistakenly kills Qin Xian, but he is unlikely to kill He Yi!

The two sides quarreled because of different opinions, and in the end, Su Wuming said that no matter whether it was possible or not, it was most reliable to call Jiang Ping to ask.

After a while, the official called Jiang Ping, although Jiang Ping was a little nervous at this time, but he was quite peaceful, and he was not excited after seeing Su Wuming, after Su Wuming invited him to sit down, he asked, "Do you know why Lord Ben invited you to come today?" ”

Su Wuming's words sounded a little indecent, like the words of a gangster, Jiang Ping was shocked at first when he heard this, then his brows condensed slightly, and he shook his head: "I don't know, please let Master Su make it clear!" ”

"When I asked you last time, you said that Zhao Tong bought your family's mansion very legally, this matter was investigated by Lord Ben, and it was indeed legal, but as far as this official knows, when Zhao Tong bought this mansion, the price was not very high, your Jiang family was in urgent need of money at that time, and Zhao Tong took advantage of the fire to rob him, do you hate him?"

Jiang Ping's heart sank, and after a long time, he said: "What did Master Su say, although the price offered by Zhao Tong was not very high at that time, it was possible to take out so much money to help our Jiang family tide over the difficulties at once, and only Zhao Tong and Boss Zhao were the only ones, how could I hate him." ”

Su Wuming smiled lightly: "What you said is different from what you said last time, you changed your words again and again and concealed it from Lord Ben, how do you make Lord Ben believe you?" Say, did you come to Zhao Mansion to kill people and take revenge? ”

Hearing this, Jiang Ping couldn't calm down anymore, and said again and again: "Wronged, wronged, Master Su, I really didn't think about killing people this time, and it was also true that I came to Hangzhou to do business, and there was no lie...... After all, this is the place where I lived in my childhood, I haven't seen me for more than ten years, I thought about it, so I dragged my brother to lead me here, and I really didn't do anything to kill people. ”

Seeing Jiang Ping's eagerness to look like this, Su Wuming smiled lightly and said: "Judging from the current situation, we suspect that you are completely justified, the Zhao Mansion is heavily guarded, unless you are very familiar with it, you can kill people freely, you have lived here for many years, and you naturally know the layout and style of this place very well, so it is not an exaggeration to doubt you, right?" ”

Jiang Ping saw that Su Wuming was still suspicious, and he panicked, so without thinking, he blurted out everything he could say and know: "Lord Su is very familiar with this Zhao Mansion, but after my training in the past few days, I found that this place is very different from the place where I lived before, sometimes walking in it, I will inevitably get lost, how can my lord recognize me as a murderer because I have lived here before?" Others may also be murderers, and there are many secret passages in this Zhao Mansion, if the secret passages are discovered and the murderer is hiding in them, it is not still possible to kill people......"

When Jiang Ping said this, Su Wuming suddenly waved his hand to stop him and asked, "Secret Dao?" ”

Jiang Ping nodded again and again: "Master Su also knows that more than ten years ago, Datang was not very stable, and there were often bandits in Hangzhou, at that time, in order to facilitate escape, my father dug secret passages in the house for a few days, and those secret passages were very hidden, but I believe that as long as someone's room happens to have a secret passage, she will definitely be able to find the secret passage." ”

After Jiang Ping finished speaking, he was still a little nervous, and his eyes looked at Su Wuming from time to time, Su Wuming's brows were tightened, and after a long time, he asked, "Do you know whose room those secret passages are?" ”

Jiang Ping nodded: "Naturally, I know, the person who lives in the entrance room of the secret passage is Shangguan Bo, who used to be his sister Shangguan Yun's boudoir, and the exit leads directly to the outside of the Zhao Mansion, of course, you can also enter the Zhao Mansion through the secret passage from the outside." ”

"Is there anything else besides this secret passage?"

"Yes, yes, but because it was a bit time-consuming and laborious to dig secret tunnels underground, and some geology was not easy to dig through, so several of them were only dug in general, and those tunnels were not connected, so I am afraid there is nothing to say."

After listening to Jiang Ping's words, Su Wuming suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment, he felt that the murder case was about to be solved, and now what he had to do was to prove some clues.

And the first thing that needs to be proved is that Jiang Ping just said that Shangguan Bo didn't know about the secret passage that day, and if he wanted to verify this, it was very easy to trick Shangguan Bo out, and they would go in and search it.

It was easy to trick Shangguan Bo out, Su Wuming found a few officials, called Shangguan Bo to the living room, and said that someone wanted to see him for questioning, presumably he didn't dare to leave without getting permission to leave, right?

After doing so, Su Wuming was going to take someone to Shangguan Bo's residence to verify it, but Jiang Ping said that the tunnel was not very big, and it was in disrepair, and he might hate danger, and the fewer people who went in, the better.

Jiang Ping's words were also for everyone's safety, and for this reason, Su Wuming only took Tang Xiong into the tunnel.

The mouth of the tunnel is under the bed, after the two of them enter the tunnel, they find that they need to descend a height, after descending one person high, the hole in the ground slowly becomes larger, and there is a passage connected, at this time the passage is very dark, and because of the age, in addition to the water in the tunnel, there are many rats running everywhere in it, a little careless, the rat climbed to the feet, making people so disgusting.

Tang Xiong walked in front of the lamp, Su Wuming followed behind, and after walking a few steps like this, they found that there was a bunch of mice tearing things in front of them, and when they shone the lamp, they found that many mice were biting a black dress, but when they saw the black clothes, they immediately became alert, it was not a black clothes, but a night clothes worn by ghosts, no wonder they turned over the Zhao Mansion that night and didn't find it, it turned out that they were hidden in the secret passage.

And this secret passage is in Shangguan Bo's residence, so in other words, that ghost man is pretended to be Shangguan Bo, that is to say, before Su Wuming and the others came to Zhao Mansion, Shangguan Bo had already begun to plan the ghost man incident.

After getting the night clothes on the ground, Su Wuming and Tang Xiong continued to walk forward, about a thousand steps or so, and their eyes suddenly increased greatly, they knew that they had already walked out of the Zhao Mansion and came to the exit.

After such an experiment, many things have been figured out, but it is still a little difficult to use the night walker to prove who the murderer is.

Therefore, after returning to the Zhao Mansion, Su Wuming immediately ordered someone to gather everyone in the Zhao Mansion, Zhao Tong saw Su Wuming making such a big fanfare, he was a little puzzled, and hurriedly ran over and asked, "Master Su, why is this so?" ”

Su Wuming glanced at Zhao Tong and smiled lightly: "Just do some investigation, and when the investigation is over, the murder of the Zhao Mansion will be over." ”

As soon as Zhao Tong heard that the murder case could be solved, he didn't say anything else, so he had to gather all the people in the mansion into the courtyard, and no one could be an exception.

In this way, when all the people of the Zhao Mansion gathered in the courtyard, Su Wuming ordered a few officials to guard here, and then took Song Jingtian and others and that Jiang Ping to start a search in the Zhao Mansion, and the purpose of their search this time was very clear, that is, the secret passages left by the Jiang family before, and they wanted to see if there were any changes in these secret passages.

After some investigation, everyone was a little surprised, because when they saw that one of the secret passages that had been blocked later opened, they understood everything, even the motive of the murderer.

After discovering all this, Song Jingtian asked, "Master Su, will you arrest the murderer immediately?" ”

Su Wuming hesitated a little, and shook his head after a long time: "This matter should not be publicized, how about closing the case secretly?" ”

Everyone glanced at each other, and finally turned their eyes to Song Jingtian, Song Jingtian is the head catcher in Hangzhou, whether this murder is known to the whole city or only they know, it all depends on his thoughts.

And when Song Jingtian realized this, his face was embarrassed, and he said: "The murderer killed two people in a row, no matter what his motives are and what his family background is, killing people always pays for their lives, this is ......"

Su Wuming naturally knew this, so before Song Jingtian's words were finished, Su Wuming immediately said: "Murder pays for life, this is an eternal law, no one can be an exception, Lord Ben just advocates that this case should not be publicized, the murderer should be dealt with, and it should be dealt with." ”

After understanding what Su Wuming meant, Song Jingtian smiled again and again: "This is the best, then Master Su, what should we do next?" ”

"Call Zhao Tong, Shangguan Bo, and Zhao Ya!"

Hearing Su Wuming's instructions, a servant immediately ran to the courtyard and called Zhao Tong, Shangguan Bo and Zhao Ya to the living room.

Su Wuming glanced at the three of them, and then said, "Three of you, please take a seat!" ”

The three of them hesitated, but finally sat down opposite Su Wuming, and when the three of them sat down, Su Wuming said: "Now that the Zhao Mansion murder case, Lord Ben has investigated it clearly, do the three of you have anything to say to you?" ”

All three were nervous, but in this case, they all shook their heads, that is, they didn't have anything to say.

Seeing the three of them like this, Su Wuming frowned slightly, and said: "The three of them have something to hide from the official, originally, the official wanted to let you speak out first to atone for your sins, but since the three of them refused to say it, then it was up to Lord Ben to say it, but after Lord Ben finished speaking, you must not have any complaints about the punishment you will receive later." ”

Hearing Su Wuming's words, the three of them were even more nervous, in addition to their hands trembling slightly, cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, but even so, the three of them still refused to speak.
