Of course, Lu Jinping only talked about this step, and there was evidence from modern criminal investigation technology behind him, that is, he used the trace physical evidence soil swept off the crack on the handle of the knife to conduct a spectral scan, and found that the spectrum of the soil was consistent with the spectrum of soil extracted from the courtyard door of Qu Butcher's house, proving that it was the same soil.

The pit of the upside-down pig-killing knife should have been filled, otherwise, Lu Jinping would have suspected this a long time ago, and would have conducted a corresponding inspection and identification. He began to suspect that Shi Jingsheng's father committed suicide and came from the Lang Zhong who participated in the rescue of Shi Jingsheng's father. Lang Zhong told him that there were multiple superficial injuries near the final wound near his forehead, which immediately reminded him of the typical suicide test wound.

Of course, suicide is likely to result in a test injury, but not all test injuries are suicide. Therefore, when Lu Jinping learned from Lang Zhong that there was a similar situation of tentative injury and the corpse was not recorded, he suspected suicide, but did not make a final judgment. It wasn't until he checked again from the handle of the knife that he found a trace amount of dirt in the gap, which was identified as the same as the infrared spectrum of the soil in front of the butcher's house, which greatly strengthened the judgment of suicide.

And then, he found two superimposed blurred fingerprints from the pig killing knife and the axe, after the fingerprint layered identification system was peeled off, and compared after separation, the owner could not be found, Lu Jinping judged that it was left by the deceased, just now he compared the fingerprints extracted from the jade wrench finger used by Shi Jingsheng's father alone, and determined that the fingerprints on the axe and the pig killing knife were left by Shi Jingsheng's father. And the axe handle and a separate fingerprint turned out to be Shi Jingsheng's.

According to Shi Jingsheng's own testimony, he saw the butcher cut his father's forehead with an axe and stabbed his father in the temple with a pig-killing knife, and his father fell to the ground and died. It was found that the fingerprints of the deceased were in the handle of the axe and the handle of the pig-killing knife and the blade, the handle of the axe was relatively long, which was easy to understand, but the handle of the pig-killing knife was held in the hand of the butcher, and at the same time, the blade was pierced into the head, so how could it be possible to leave fingerprints? Proving that the deceased had previously held the handle of an axe and a pig-killing knife is a strong case for the deceased's suicide.

Heard Lu Jinping reveal the truth. Shi Jingsheng's face slowly became hideous, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, you just said that people are doing it, and the sky is watching." Since God has eyes, why not let a thief like Qu Butcher die? ”

"What did he do to be sorry for you?"

"Isn't it enough that he forced me to rape my wife?"

"Do you have proof?"

"What my father saw! Is this still fake? ”

"Seeing is not believing!"

"So what is real? My dad told me and he wouldn't lie to me! ”

Lu Jinping said lightly: "Of course your father won't lie to you, because he himself is sure of this." Of course, he will tell you what he is sure of. Unfortunately, there is one thing that you don't know, and if you did, maybe you wouldn't have thought that way. ”

"What's the matter?" Shi Jingsheng Road.

"When the butcher was a child, his crotch was bitten off by a dog. He can't walk humane. Moreover, your lady Chunya was his childhood sweetheart before marrying you, but unfortunately, because he knew that he couldn't walk humanely, he resolutely disagreed to marry Chunya as his wife, although Chunya had asked so. Spring buds are in despair. That's why I married you. - For the sake of Chunya's happiness, he is unwilling to let her stay widowed and not marry her, how can he rape her? He didn't say anything, so how could he rape her? ”

Shi Jingsheng was stupid and looked at Lu Jinping blankly. After a while, he stammered: "What did the lord say...... It's true? ”

"Of course it's true, if you don't believe me, I can take you to the prison to find him."

"But ......, but my father really saw him trying to rape my lady!"

"You should think they're fornicating, not raping, right?"

"Yes!" Shi Jingsheng said hatefully. "This slut married me, and he has been thinking about seducing men, especially the butcher!"

Lu Jinping sighed: "Your father and son have always suspected that Chunya had an affair with Butcher Qu, but in fact, before that day. Chunya doesn't have this mind, they just want to live a good life with you, but you don't believe her, not only don't you believe it, but you also insult her every day, interrogate and humiliate her. She couldn't take it anymore. In the end, you threw yourself into the arms of the butcher, and you forced it yourself. ”

Shi Jingsheng was in a daze and slowly lowered his head.

Lu Jinping continued: "If my guess is correct, when you return home, your lady is already dead. Right? ”

Shi Jingsheng was taken aback, looked at Lu Jinping with some panic, and then shook his head and said, "No, no!" My lady committed suicide by hanging herself. I hanged myself the night after I came. ”

"I believe that the condition on the beams of your house and the condition of the corpse will not support your point of view, and if you insist on this statement, I will immediately inspect the beams of your house, and immediately open the coffin for an autopsy. And when I verify that it is different from what you said, I will arrest you for your perjury and cover up the criminal, and at the same time, you have also committed the crime of intentional homicide by helping others commit suicide. And it's your father who helps. This is a felony of the 10 heinous crimes. Two sins plus contempt for the yamen, three sins in one, even if you don't lose your head, you will be exiled thousands of miles away. Do you hope for these? ”

Shi Jingsheng showed a desperate expression and shook his head in a panic: "I ......, of course I don't want to, ask the lord for forgiveness!" ”

"You've got to tell me what happened, the whole thing! In that case, I can give you leniency based on your truthful confession. ”

Shi Jingsheng lowered his head, hesitated, and nodded, "Okay, I said." -- I wanted to study in the capital for a while, but I received an urgent letter from my father, telling me to go home immediately, because something was wrong at home. I hurried home, and it was only a day's journey from the capital to Tongzhou. When I got home and saw my father, he pulled me into the house with a dark face, and I saw my mother Chunya dead in bed, with a dented wound on her head, and half of her face was stained red with blood. His eyes were still half-open, and his body was stiff. ”

"I was scared of my mind. Ask my dad what happened. My father said that three days ago, he saw my wife Chunya having an affair with the butcher Qu, and the two hugged each other, and my father was very angry, so he scolded them and was slapped by the butcher. The father was so angry that his whole body trembled, saying that they were found out by his father, and he was not ashamed, and he hit him with his face, and when the lady Chunya returned home, the father angrily scolded her for not abiding by women's morals. Chunya actually proposed to divorce our wife, and he wanted to live with the butcher of Naqu. ”

"There is such a shameless woman in the world! My father was so angry that he beat her, but she fought back, and my father was also angry, grabbed the inkstone on the table, hit her head, and she lay down and didn't move. My father found that she had a big mouth in her head, and her brains came out, but he was afraid that he would not survive, so he sniffed and found that she was out of breath, so he panicked and quickly wrote to me to ask me to come back. I was scared and asked my dad what to do. ”

"My father said that killing people pays for life, but he can't die in vain, and he has to pull a cushion when he dies, saying that all this is caused by the evil deeds of the butcher. The butcher must pay for his death. I said that Mrs. Qu Tu is tall and big, and neither of us can beat him, how can we kill him? My father said that there was no need to fight hard, he had already thought of a way, and I must do it according to his method. I had no choice but to say yes. ”

He took out a pig-killing knife and an axe, saying that he had paid a man named Hanako to help him steal them from the pork stall of the butcher. I was taken aback and asked what this was for. My father said that he didn't need to ask, just go with them and find out. So that night after dark, I followed my father to the butcher's house, and my father suddenly held an axe and began to chop his forehead, I was frightened, and hurried to stop him, but my father pointed at me with an axe and said that he was going to commit suicide and die, and then asked me to carry the body home, and then reported to the official that I would testify that I saw the butcher kill him with an axe. If he does this, he can frame the butcher and pay for his life, and he will die a well-deserved death. If I want to stop him, he will also be executed by the court for murder, and he can only die in vain, and he will not achieve the goal of revenge. He will not let me go in the spirit of heaven. Forced me to say yes. ”

I had to cry and agree, and watched my father cut his forehead with an axe more than ten times, and the last blow was the most powerful, and the axe stuck in his forehead, and he couldn't take it off, so I asked me to help. I had to pull the axe down hard. He was bleeding profusely, and he didn't have the strength to cut anymore, so I asked me to stab him to death with a pig-killing knife. I resolutely refused, saying that no matter what, I could not kill my own father, even if it was for revenge. ”

So my father made a hole in the ground with his pig-killing knife, and put the knife upside down in the hole, and told me that when he died, he would fill the hole in the ground, and then he fell on his side, and struck the tip of the pig-killing knife, and the blade pierced him in the temple. and died. With tears in my eyes, I pulled out the pig-killing knife, threw it into the corner of the butcher's house with the axe, and returned with the corpse on my back. told his family that he was killed by the butcher Qu, and called Lang Zhong to confirm that he was dead, and then reported it to the official. That's the way it is. ”

…………

Lu Jinping stopped the execution and reported to the emperor a month after Feng Assassin's history.

The emperor issued an order to reward Lu Jinping for discovering the wrong case. At the same time, the original decision to approve the death penalty of Qu Butcher was cancelled, and the crime of Qu Butcher was changed to adultery. And Shi Jingsheng framed others, almost causing wrongful killing, coupled with perjury, contempt for the imperial court, should have been punished heavily, but the cause was that his wife did not abide by women's morals, which is also excusable, plus he can truthfully confess, and he was sentenced to 100 rods and three years in prison.

Lu Jinping saw that the holy decree finally attributed this case to Chunya's failure to abide by women's morals, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head. There is something about ancient punishment that is truly incomprehensible. (To be continued.) )
