He paused, and his eyes suddenly lit up and said, "Through this silk, I investigated all the way from the bamboo forest, and finally came to Hetou Village. In Hetou Village, the official found the place where Tao Zhaoxue was killed. ”

He glanced at Lu Jitong and said coldly: "If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would be hard for this official to believe that there is such a heartbreaking thing in this ordinary world!" ”

Kang Xu's voice instantly became extremely cold, like an ice lump, which made people feel a little chilling when they heard it.

Lu Jitong looked at him, not understanding why he had become so angry.

"In Hetou Village, the official found a secret room with a prison in the middle of the secret room." Kang Xu tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, and he said word by word: "In the prison, innocent girls are imprisoned, and those girls are imprisoned as playthings, which is simply heartbreaking!" ”

Speaking of this, Kang Xu's anger surged, and he slapped the case suddenly, shaking the wooden board on the case to tremble slightly.

Lu Jitong and Tao Jizhu showed surprise on their faces at the same time, and they looked at Kang Xu with doubts in their eyes.

"Is there such a thing?" Tao Jizhu was surprised. "Have you found out, who did this?"

Kang Xu stared at Lu Jitong tightly, and said in a deep voice: "According to this official's investigation, the person who imprisoned the girl and the person who killed Tao Zhaoxue were committed by the same person. And Tao Zhaoxue was in the secret room of the prison and was tortured to death by the murderer in a brutal and inhumane way. ”

Lu Jitong's brows tightened, he also stared at Kang Xu, and said, "What do you mean by this, do you mean those women I imprisoned?" ”

Kang Xu took a deep breath, calmed down, and said coldly: "The prison chamber is in your old mansion. Don't tell this official, you don't even remember your old house! ”

"My old house?" Lu Jitong was a little stunned. After a while, he said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency believes that I am a murderer based on this alone. It's hard to be convinced. My family's old house is in Hetou Village, but it is also possible that it was used by someone with a heart. Besides, I had no idea that there would be a secret room in the old mansion. ”

"Okay, I'll show you the evidence and convince you. Take Liu Tie to the court! Kang Xu slapped the shocked wood and snorted coldly.

A servant immediately brought Liu Tie up, Liu Tie lowered his head tremblingly, knelt on the ground tremblingly, and shouted, "Grass people Liu Tie." I've seen adults! ”

"Liu Tie, raise your head and look at the people around you, do you know each other?" Kang Xu said lightly.

Liu Tie nodded hurriedly, he raised his head, only glanced at it, and shouted: "My lord, it's him!" He is Lu Jitong, and he is the one who asked the villain to take care of the dungeon on his behalf. Everything the grass people do is at his command! ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I don't know you, when will you take care of the dungeon?" Lu Jitong's face was full of astonishment and doubts.

"Lu Gongzi. At the beginning, you asked me to pretend to be a Taoist priest of Youfang, stay in Hetou Village, and help you guard the dungeon. Now that you say this, isn't this crossing the river and tearing down the bridge? Liu Tie listened to him. Suddenly anger swelled up, and he shouted.

"I've never seen you. Why do you want to frame me? Lu Jitong frowned and asked.

"Lu Gongzi, you say this, do you want to put all the charges on me?" Liu Tie was furious, and he shouted: "Okay, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous." My lord, I have evidence to prove that Lu Jitong is the murderer! ”

Kang Xu's eyes were cold, he slapped the shocked wood suddenly, and shouted: "Liu Tie, above the court, everything you said is testimony, since you have evidence in your hand, why didn't you confess earlier?" ”

Liu Tie trembled with fright, and he said tremblingly: "My lord, the grass people are lucky, thinking that Lu Jitong will speak for me and save me." didn't want him to turn his face ruthlessly, cross the river and tear down the bridge, but the grass people were angry, so they decided to hand over the evidence...... I beg you to spare your life. ”

Kang Xu's face was gloomy, and he looked down on scheming and treacherous people like Liu Tie.

Snorting coldly, Kang Xu said coldly: "What evidence do you have to prove that he is the murderer?" If you dare to deceive the official, it will be a crime of one more degree, and the official will never spare you! ”

"The grass people don't dare, the grass people don't dare." Liu Tie knelt on the ground, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and said: "Back to adults, every time Lu Jitong abuses a imprisoned woman, his hands will be covered with blood, and then he will use a white cloth to wipe the blood. In order to prevent him from turning his face ruthlessly, the grass people secretly hid the white cloth that he had rubbed and bloodied, including the white cloth he wiped when Tao Zhaoxue was killed. ”

Kang Xu and Xiao Wu glanced at each other, and their eyes lit up at the same time.

Wipe the blood from the white cloth, even if the blood dries up, it will leave obvious blood stains.

And the blood came from Lu Jitong's hand, so there must be Lu Jitong's hand prints on the white cloth.

As long as Lu Jitong's hand prints are compared with the traces on the white cloth, it can be determined whether Lu Jitong is the real murderer or not.

"Where is the evidence now?" Kang Xu hurriedly asked.

"Go back to my lord, now in the earthen house kang where the villain in Hetou Village lives." Liu Tie replied honestly.

"Xiao Wu, quickly take him to get the evidence!" Kang Xu did not hesitate at all, and immediately made a decision.

Xiao Wu put down the wolf's pen, immediately got up, led several good officials, escorted Liu Tie out of the county office, and hurried to Hetou Village.

"My lord, this is a false accusation! I have never seen this man, and how can I command him to do things that are inferior to beasts? When Lu Jitong saw Liu Tie leaving, his face suddenly became solemn, and he shouted loudly.

Kang Xu picked up the teacup calmly, and the evidence that Liu Tie said could be said to be very important. As long as he gets the evidence, he can determine whether Lu Jitong is the murderer or not.

"Oh, that's weird. One is a rich kid living in Zhengyang City, and the other is a ruffian from a poor village, and the two of you can't beat it, why does he want to frame you? ”

Lu Jitong's brows furrowed, Kang Xu's words made him speechless, he couldn't figure it out, he hadn't seen Liu Tie, why did he frame himself?

"In addition, this official has this other evidence, this is the oral testimony of the three women I rescued from the dungeon of the Lu family's old mansion, which clearly records your evil deeds, and this official can let them come and confront you." Kang Xu ordered someone to hand over the testimony to Lu Jitong.

Lu Jitong took the testimony and looked at it carefully.

"You are the master of the dungeon, there is no doubt about it. Now this official will talk about the murder of Tao Zhaoxue. Kang Xu picked up the autopsy sheet and said, "This autopsy sheet was filled out by me and my wife, and when the autopsy was conducted, there were Tao and his wife present. Now, let's talk about the murderer's brutal killing methods, and see if you can remember some of them, Brother Lu. (To be continued.) )
