Chapter 104: Lying

Leng Yi looked at him and sat down, smiled, and said, "You do things, no wonder others are suspicious." ”

Tu Er suddenly became angry, and glared at Leng Yi: "Leng Zhixian, what did my sister-in-law and I do to make others suspicious, please make it clear!" ”

"What will others think when she comes to your little yard alone at night, and after her husband is asleep?"

"She's not alone, she's with her maid Xiaoping."

"Oh? Didn't you say that when your sister-in-law came, you fell asleep? So how do you know she's here with a maid? ”

"Every time she comes, she brings the maid Xiaoping, which you don't need to see to know."

"So, you're guessing?"

"Yes. She may have come with a maid every time to avoid suspicion, and never came alone. ”

"However, as far as I know, that maid Xiaoping, after she came, was waiting in the south room of the courtyard, and did not come to your study. What are you doing, she doesn't know. ”

Tu Er's face turned green, and he stood up again, and said, "You mean, I was in the room with my sister-in-law?" Pointing at Leng Yi's nose: "You, you are simply ......!" ”

Cheng Luojie shouted angrily on the side: "Dare to be rude to adults!" With that, he pointed at Tu Er's waist and eyes.

Tu Er's hand was like electricity, and he actually blocked Cheng Luojie's fingers!

The two of them quickly exchanged five or six moves, which were as dazzling as butterflies. Finally, Cheng Luojie still pointed at his waist. Tu Er snorted and fell softly on the seat.

Leng Yi smiled: "I can't see it, you, a good brother who only reads sage books in the eyes of the gang leader, can also do martial arts?" ”

Tu Er snorted: "Why are you arresting me? ”

"Why? You have the time and motivation to commit the crime at the scene of the crime! And the speech is inconsistent! Leng Yi said, "When the three of them came in and found the body, there were only you and the maid in the courtyard!" The maid was a woman, and it was almost impossible to strangle her wife, and the deceased had almost no resistance injuries on her body, indicating that the person who subdued the deceased should be a man whose strength was obviously greater than her, and he might also have martial arts. Come to think of it this way, who are you if not you? ”

Tu Er glared at Leng Yi fiercely and said, "I didn't kill her!" ”

Leng Yi turned to Wei Du and said, "You go and call the maid Xiaoping, I want to confront them!" ”

Wei Du agreed and left quickly.

Leng Yi leaned over to look at Tu Er, suddenly smiled, and said, "Actually, I know that you were not in the courtyard at the time, but I want to know where you went." This is a matter of human life, maybe your butcher family does not take other people's lives seriously, but our government has to take it seriously, if you are a murderer, you killed your sister-in-law, that is absolutely a death sentence. Think about it with your clever head! ”

Tu Er's face turned pale, looking at him, his lips moved, but he still didn't speak.

"This county wants the truth, but you are willing to be a scapegoat for criminals. Very good! Then the county will have nothing to say, you can treat you as a criminal and send you to the prefect for justice! - Handcuff him! ”

Yin Vulture took out the iron chain and locked Tu Er's hands. Tu Er's face was colorless, gritting his teeth, not speaking, not knowing what he was thinking.

Soon, Wei Du came with the little maid Xiaoping, and when she saw Tu Er being handcuffed, her face turned pale with fright, and she took several steps back.

Leng Yi waved his hand, called Xiaoping to a secluded place outside, and said, "You also saw it just now, this county has already arrested your second master." ――Do you know why the prefecture wanted to arrest him? ”

Xiaoping shook her head in fear.

"Because the county used the punishment, he finally admitted that he killed Mrs. together with you!"

Cheng Luojie next to her didn't know why Leng Yi made up this lie, and she wanted to stop talking. I want to listen to how Leng Yi sings below.

Xiaoping's face suddenly turned pale, and her two little hands waved wildly: "No, no!" I didn't kill his wife with him, he lied! He wasn't in the yard at all! ”

Leng Yi smiled: "He's not in the yard?" Then why do you say he fell asleep in his study at the time? ”

"Yes...... he told me to say that."

"You mean, he asked you to help him lie and cheat the government?"

"Well, he secretly called me aside and asked me to help him lie, saying that he was in the house, sleeping in the study. said that if I didn't help him lie, he would let the master sell me to the Qinglou. I was so frightened that I had to say yes. ”

Leng Yi said: "Then where did he go?" ”

"The slave maid didn't know, when the slave maid entered the yard, there was no one in the yard, and the lady asked the slave and maid to wait in the south room, and the slave and maid waited, and then fell asleep."

"It's strange, when you go to the courtyard, there is no one inside, but your wife waits inside and doesn't leave, why is that?"

"I don't know, maybe I have to wait for the second master to come back."

"And when exactly did he come back?"

"Well, the slave and maid don't know very well, I was really frightened at the time, and when the second master called the slave maid, I knew that he was already there."

"When was that? Are they coming? ”

"Nope. It seems that Lang Zhong is here and is rescuing. ”

"Who did he let him help you lie about?"

"Tuwa. He asked Tuwa to go to the study to wake him up. ”

Leng Yi thought for a while and said, "What did he do besides asking the two of you to help lie?" ”

"He told me to clean up my study."

"Tidy up the study?"

"Yes, at that time, the study was also turned by the robbers, and the turning was not big, only one desk was turned over, and the books on the shelves were not turned over. So it was quickly cleaned up. ”

Leng Yi asked Wei Du to take the maid Xiaoping down, take care of her alone, and not be allowed to talk to anyone.

After Wei Du escorted Xiaoping away, Cheng Luojie asked Leng Yi: "Before the maid Xiaoping told the truth, how could the eldest master conclude that this Tu Er was not actually at the scene?" Did he say that he was wrong about the book he was reading? ”

"That's the main basis. Now I know why he was wrong, just because the murderer had also turned over in his study, and in order to prove that he fell asleep reading in the study at that time, and the thief had not entered the study, he cleaned up the study again, but forgot to put a book on the desk to prove that he was comfortable reading. And in a panic, he told his previous memories that he was reading at the time, but in fact, he had already cleaned up the desk, and there were no books on it. ”

"Did you just say that this is the primary basis, and there is a secondary basis?"

"The secondary basis is speculation. - If Tu Er was really asleep in the study at that time. And the murderer sneaked in to rob money, and was seen by the victim, and killed people. Since everyone was killed, why didn't you kill Tu Er, who was sleeping, too? He found so much gold in the bedroom, didn't he think there would be gold in the study? A person who can kill people and kill them by strangulation should be bold and reckless, and it is impossible not to do so, driven by huge interests. And Tu Er was safe, and by inference, he was not in the room at all. ”

Cheng Luojie said: "However, what if the murderer has a grudge against the wife of the gang leader, and carries out a vendetta, pretending to be a thief who is greedy for money and kills people? ”

"That wouldn't be logical. If the murderer has a grudge against the victim, in the huge Yellow Mansion, he has a secluded place to kill the victim. For example, on the way to the small courtyard, rockeries, pines and cypresses, pavilions, and many places can suddenly attack and kill the victim. Why do you have to look for a small courtyard next to it where people sleep? Isn't he afraid of the sleeper waking up? ”

"That's right." Cheng Luojie said, "This case is really strange, people want to find evidence of their alibi to prove that they were not at the scene of the crime, so as to clear the suspicion, this second master, obviously not at the scene of the crime, but he has to let the maid make perjury to prove that he was at the scene of the crime." It's funny. ”

Leng Yi said: "Yes, this is a very strange place in this case. Why he did it is not yet known, but one thing is certain, and that is that it is much better for him to let people know that he is at the scene than if he is not there, so that he does not hesitate to risk being listed as a key suspect and let people lie that he is at the scene. ”

"What's the benefit?"

Leng Yi thought about it, suddenly smiled, and said, "I think I've guessed some." ”

"What is it?"

"What's the most important thing for the younger brother of a well-fed boat gang leader?"

Cheng Luojie looked at him dumbfounded: "What? ”

"Don't worry, I'll have someone tell you!"

"Who?"

Leng Yi smiled mysteriously and instructed Wei Du to call Tuwa, and after interrogation, Tuwa also admitted that Tu Er asked him to help lie at that time, so he said that he woke him up in the study.

Leng Yi took Tuwa and Xiaoping to the room where Tu Er was being held, glanced at Tu Er, and said to the two: "Let me ask you, at the time of the crime, was your second master, that is, him, sleeping in the study?" ”

Tuwa and Xiaoping shook their heads in cringe: "No, it was the second master who made us lie and say that he slept in the study." ”

Tu Er said angrily: "You two beasts who eat inside and out! ”

The two of them were so frightened that they retreated again and again.

Leng Yi waved his hand to let the two of them out, and said with a smile: "You also heard it, how about it?" Anyway, where did you go on the night of the crime? ”

Tu Er smiled: "Since you all know that I am not at the scene, it is impossible to be a murderer, what else do you ask?" Can you control where I went? I won't tell you, and neither will you! - Let me go! ”

Leng Yi nodded and said to Yin Ying, "Let him go!" ”

Yin Vulture untied Tu Er's chains.

Tu Er stood up, rubbed his wrist, and said with a bit of teasing: "Thank you, thank you for helping me find the alibi." Can I go? ”

"Yes, this is your home, you can go wherever you want."

Tu Er walked out triumphantly. But Leng Yi said a word, and he immediately stood still.

Leng Yi said: "I have to tell the Huang gang leader, you didn't fall asleep from studying too hard in the house, but went out, not at the scene, not the murderer." With that, he paced out with square steps.

"Wait!" Tu Er's face became a little pale again, "Master, can you not tell my brother about this matter?" ”
