Chapter 321: The Fisherman
The chain was on the body, this Lin Xiang was a little panicked, and said: "Master, I really didn't hit him hard, I just touched him lightly, and he fell ......" Several other guys also spoke. There was chaos in the courtroom.
Yang Qiuchi was shocked again, stopped them talking, and ordered the rest of the guys to be escorted down first, and Lin Xiang was interrogated first.
Lin Xiang couldn't rely on the matter of killing Shi Qiujian, because it was on the side of the street at that time, so many people were watching the excitement, and besides, he had already confessed before, and it was too late to deny it. I had to tell the truth what happened.
Master Jin made a note on the side and asked Lin Xiang to draw a charge.
Next, Yang Qiuchi asked the guys one by one. The guys also told the truth and made a transcript. Then let the guys wait far away outside the lobby.
Then, Yang Qiuchi wanted to interrogate the Naba River corpse sinking case, ordered all the observers to be driven away, and no observers were allowed to listen, and asked the soap subordinates to also retreat, so that Nangong Xiong sent guards to carry Shi Qiujian's body away. Above the lobby, there were only a few personal guards such as Catcher Kuai and Nangong Xiong.
Yang Qiuchi asked Lin Xiangdao: "Another thing for you, did you buy a bundle of mats at the market the night before yesterday?" ”
Lin Xiang was depressed, pondering what to do about this matter, and suddenly heard Yang Qiuchi ask about it, recalled it, and nodded: "Yes, the villain bought a bundle of mats." ”
"Is the mattress tied with a thin chain?"
"yes!" Lin Xiang was a little surprised, "At that time, I was also a little strange, and I also asked the seller how to tie the mat with a thin iron chain, and he said that it was strong in this way." ”
"Where's the chain? Where are you now? Yang Qiuchi asked.
Lin Xiang lowered his head and thought for a while, then shook his head: "I asked Long Er to carry the mat directly to the guys' residence, I didn't care, so I don't know, but the little guy who went with me to buy the mat at that time Long Er was outside, you can ask him." ”
Lin Xiang didn't know why Yang Qiuchi cared about buying a mat for himself, for him, he was more concerned about how his case would be judged, so he asked, "Sir, ...... my case?"
Yang Qiuchi said: "This official will handle the case impartially, but if you kill someone to pay for your life, this official can't help you." ”
Lin Xiang's frightened face turned white, and he suddenly turned around and shouted outside the lobby: "Long Er, you go and tell the big shopkeeper and let him save me!" ”
The guys outside the lobby were waiting in a room, far away, so they couldn't hear Lin Xiang's words.
Yang Qiuchi smiled slightly and said, "Shopkeeper Lin, you don't have to be in such a hurry, if you have anything to say, you can call them in and order." ”
"Thank you...... Thank you, sir! When Lin Xiang heard that he was going to kill someone to pay for his life, his voice trembled.
Yang Qiuchi instructed a soap officer to run out and call the guy named Long Er. This guy bent over and went to the platform, standing there and not daring to come in, Yang Qiuchi said: "You come in, what can you say now, otherwise it will be inconvenient to say it after being imprisoned." ”
The young man, Long Er, trotted in and knelt down next to Lin Xiang.
Lin Xiang said: "After the old man of Huizhizhou finishes asking, after you go back, hurry up to Baoning Mansion to report this matter to the big treasurer, and ask him to find a way to save me no matter what." Do you understand? ”
The guy nodded, "Understood." ”
Yang Qiuchi looked at them and asked the young man, "Are you Ryuuji?" ”
The fellow kowtowed and replied, "The villain is." ”
"You and your shopkeeper bought a bundle of mats the afternoon before yesterday, where did you put the thin iron chain of the mat?"
"Mats?" Ryuuji's head didn't turn for a while.
Lin Xiang's eyes widened: "It's the bundle we bought in the market the day before yesterday, and I asked you to carry it back to the mat for the brothers!" ”
"Oh!" Only then did Ryuuji remember, "I carried it to the store's residence for my brothers." ”
Lin Xiang asked anxiously, "What about the thin iron chains that bundle the mat?" Although he didn't know why the Earl Lord was interested in this thin iron chain, he was eager to please Yang Qiuchi and asked.
Ryuuji was confused, he didn't pay attention to what was binding the mat, scratched his scalp and said, "Thin iron chain? Is the mattress tied with a thin iron chain? ”
"You fucking you! Lao Tzu will beat you to death! Lin Xiang was in a hurry, raised his hand, and drove the chain locked on his body to make a loud sound.
Ryuuji shrank his neck in fright, and hurriedly said: "Shopkeeper, I really didn't pay attention to what the mat is used for, don't worry, if it is indeed tied to the mat, it must still be where the shop guys live." I'll find it for you. Ryuuji said and was about to get up.
Yang Qiuchi thought to himself, the chain is now here, you go find a fart, but this can't be said yet, so as not to scare them into talking nonsense at that time. Then he beckoned: "Don't worry, the official still has something to ask you." ”
"Yes!" Long Er hurriedly kowtowed, looking at Yang Qiuchi with blank eyes.
"Can't you remember if the mat was tied with an iron chain?" Yang Qiuchi asked.
"Big man, the villain really didn't notice, but the brothers waiting outside may be able to remember."
Lin Xiang was overjoyed: "Then don't you go and call them in!" Excited, the chains in his hands were rattling, and then he realized that he was still a murderer, and above the lobby of the prefect's yamen, it was his turn to give an order, and he hurriedly looked at Yang Qiuchi.
Yang Qiuchi instructed Soap Li to call those guys up.
After a few guys came up. Without waiting for Yang Qiuchi to ask, Lin Xiang preemptively asked, "Do you still remember where the iron chain that tied the mat on the bundle of mats that Tianlong Er carried before yesterday went?" ”
Several of the guys looked at each other and shook their heads.
Yang Qiuchi's heart sank and asked, "A very thin iron chain is generally used to tie dogs. ”
"Leashed dogs?" A fellow frowned and thought about it, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "I remember, it seems that there was a boat brother who came to pay the help fee, and passed by our residence, saying that the rope of his fishing boat was always broken, and he wanted to find an iron chain to use." I was busy laying out the mat and asked him to find it himself, and he probably took the thin chain of the mat. ”
Yang Qiuchi said happily: "Can you be sure? ”
The fellow sneered, "I just heard him say that, and I didn't notice if he took it." But it seems that after the bed was made, he didn't see any thin chains, he should have taken it, because the mat was carried directly into the room before it was untied, and the boat brothers sat on the threshold and talked. If he hadn't taken the chain, it would still be in the room. ”
Another guy interjected, "No, definitely not." After tidying up, I cleaned the room, and I didn't see any chains. He turned to the other guys and asked, "Did you guys see that?" ”
The men shook their heads, and said that they were in a hurry to go out to greet business after making the bed, and did not pay attention to the rope that tied the mat.
Yang Qiuchi thought to himself, it seems that what Lin Xiang and a few guys said is not like a lie, nor is it like a collusion confession, otherwise, Lin Xiang can directly deny that the bundle of mats is tied with a thin iron chain, a one-on-one confession, and these guys can also directly say that they can't find it in the garbage heap, but they won't say that they should still be in the room and won't make trouble for themselves.
It seems that it is possible that it was really the boat brother who fished and took it.
Fishing? Yang Qiuchi had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and hurriedly asked, "Who is the fisher?" Where are you now? ”
The guy shook his head: "I don't know, I just saw him dressed up and came to the backyard of our trading house again, this is probably the boat brother who came to pay the help." ”
"Help?" Of course, Yang Qiuchi knew that it was their boat gang's help, so he deliberately asked inadvertently, "What help?" ”
Lin Xiang glared at the guy and said in a low voice, "Are you fucking looking for death?" ”
The guy realized that he had slipped his mouth, and hurriedly covered it up: "No, nothing, I said something wrong, as if he came to buy something." ”
Yang Qiuchi smiled: "Okay, the official doesn't ask you what kind of help fee you have, the official has something important to find this fisherman, Lin shopkeeper, I hope you can cooperate with the official to find this fisherman." ”
The so-called people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads, Lin Xiang's current fate is in Yang Qiuchi's hands, besides, he doesn't know what Yang Qiuchi is doing with this fisherman, but it is estimated that it is another case, it should not be their boat gang's business, even if it is, this fisherman does not know what the inside story is. In addition, the fishermen in the northeast of Sichuan in Bazhou are all gang members of the boat gang, and if you want to investigate, if you don't look for this fisherman, you will find someone else.
Since Lin Xiang estimated that Yang Qiuchi was not looking for this fisherman to check on their gang's affairs, there was no need to hide it, so he turned his head and said to Long Er: "You go back and check the registration book, and come to the gang that day...... Who are the fishermen who came to do that? Then he said to the young man, "Go with them, and think with them who the fisherman who might take away the chains is!" ”
"Yes!" Long Er and the young man agreed, Yang Qiuchi asked Zhan Zhutou to take two catchers to go with them, and come back immediately to report after finding out, and then ordered Lin Xiang to be imprisoned and announced his retirement.
Song Yun'er has been listening to the interrogation in the back. Seeing Yang Qiuchi coming out and about to speak, Yang Qiuchi waved his hand and took her to the residence of Nangong Xiong's escort team, there were several guards sitting in the house, and when they saw Yang Qiuchi coming in, they hurriedly got up and saluted.
Yang Qiuchi asked, "Shi Qiujian, how is it?" You okay? ”
"My subordinates are fine, thank you for your concern." Shi Qiujian, who had a bloody face, bowed down.
Nangong Xiong, who was following behind Yang Qiuchi, said with a smile: "Sir, Shi Qiujian is the number one master in our Jinyi Guard, and he is very good at practicing kung fu in the thirteenth Taibao, and Lin Xiang's punch is not enough to tickle him." Everyone laughed.
Yang Qiuchi also smiled and said: "You kid is really pretending to be like that, when you bring it in, you have no breath, I'm really a little worried." ”
Song Yun'er also said: "Yes, I saw that his face was covered with blood, and I really thought he was injured." ”
Shi Qiujian smiled: "That's the pig's blood I drank in advance, and then spit it out against my luck, thank you Lord and Miss Song for your concern." ”
It turned out that Shi Qiujian went to the boat firm to deliberately find trouble and cause trouble, which was arranged by Yang Qiuchi, the purpose was to get Lin Xiang, the shopkeeper of the firm, into a lawsuit, and after arresting him, he took this opportunity to start investigating the boat gang underworld case.
Yang Qiuchi said: "Theoretically, you are already dead, so during this time, I have to wronged you to hide in the guard room and not go out, and then show up when the case is clear." ”
Shi Qiujian bowed down and said, "The subordinates obey the order." ”
After another conversation in the guard's room, one of the guards came in and reported that they had returned and were waiting in the signing room.
