Xiao Jiading, accompanied by the head catcher of the Yamen of Shehong County, came to Fei Jin's parents' house. When Fei Jin's father heard that it was the official who investigated and dealt with Fei Jin's case, he immediately pulled his face down and said: "I don't care about this case, I am already dead set on this rebel, so I don't have this son!" I don't have a problem with you killing or chopping me. ”

Hearing him shouting, Fei Jin's mother hurriedly asked the maid to help the old lady away, and then said to Xiao Jiading with a smile: "His father is angry with Fei Jin's child, don't worry about it." Alas! After sighing, Fei's mother lowered her voice and asked, "My son's case has been remanded for retrial, is it going to be released?" ”

Xiao Jiading didn't answer, and asked instead: "When Master Fei heard about Fei Jin, he became angry like this, does this Fei Jin often do things that don't please the master?" ”

Fei's mother looked a little embarrassed, sighed again, and said, "Yes, I won't hide it from you, and the neighbors all know it." Alas, this child is always uneasy, he has been like this since he was a child, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, and his father is angry about him, no wonder. thought that after asking him for a daughter-in-law, he would be able to regain his heart and live a good life, but he didn't expect him to beat his wife every day, and the mother ran home twice in three days. Master Wang often came to question our master, and the old man was embarrassed by him, and he was so angry that he broke up and drove him and his brother and brother out of the house to live another life. It's just that I know that the master still thinks about him. After he killed his mother, the master also secretly asked people to take money to go to the prison to make him suffer less. ”

Xiao Jiading was a little puzzled and interrogated Fei Jin. Didn't he claim to be respectful to his wife? Why is it that now he kisses his wife but proves that he has committed domestic violence? At the moment, he asked, "He beat his wife?" But our autopsy found that there were no other bruises on his wife's body? ”

"I used to fight, but after I got out of the fight, I didn't fight much, because his father didn't give him money anymore and let him earn his own money. So he could only ask his daughter-in-law to ask his father-in-law for money to live, and he begged his daughter-in-law, so naturally he wouldn't fight. ”

"I see, did he fight badly before?"

"How is it not powerful, alas! It's all because we dote on him too much and are reluctant to take care of it, so he often doesn't shoot lightly or heavily. When he was a child, he once tore off a large handful of his father's beard. His father just laughed and didn't punish him. His lady is too weak, like a puddle of mud, and she never talks back when she is beaten and scolded by him. Only crying. I couldn't stand the fight anymore and ran home. So, when we heard that he killed his wife, we didn't think it was strange. But two days ago, the yamen said. He might have to be released. said that his wife may not have been killed by him. Is that the case? Make no mistake, right? ”

Xiao Jiading was very moved in his heart, this is really a kind two old mouths, I heard that his son's case may be a misjudgment, he was actually worried that the yamen had made a mistake, and he always believed that his son was the real murderer who killed his daughter-in-law, which is really rare. It can also be seen how much damage this Fei Jin caused to his parents.

Xiao Jiading asked Fei Jin what he did wrong to make the two old men angry so much? He wanted to see if there was anything that might violate the king's law and that he could be held responsible. It's a pity that the old couple talked about it, it was all some past stories of eating, drinking, prostitution, gambling, fighting, and brawls, and these things have been going on for a long time, but I'm afraid that it will be difficult to verify, and Xiao Jiading has no time to do this kind of thing.

Seeing that they couldn't ask anything they wanted to investigate, Xiao Jiading and the others were about to say goodbye, but Master Fei suddenly rushed out of the house again and said: "He said that he wanted to kill his daughter-in-law, and he really killed him, he is a brute, he counts when he speaks, Lao Tzu admires him!" I also said that if you want to kill someone, the king's law will not tolerate it, and you will pay for your life! Whether my words are counted as words or not, it depends on your yamen! If he really kills someone, send him to the execution ground, we won't collect the body, let the wild dogs drag it away! If I hadn't killed him, I wouldn't have recognized this rebel and let him fend for himself......! ”

As he spoke, Fei's mother hurriedly asked a few maids to quickly drag him into the house.

Xiao Jiading's heart moved, and he asked Fei's mother: "Fei Jin said that he wanted to kill his daughter-in-law?" ”

"I said, and more than once, that his daughter-in-law stole people, and that his daughter-in-law was jealous and did not allow him to take a concubine, how can these things be, his daughter-in-law is a virtuous and virtuous woman, and we don't believe that she would do such a thing when she is killed."

After Xiao Jiading heard it, he felt that this case was somewhat strange, if you didn't look at the evidence, judging from what the murderer's parents said, Fei Jin had a motive to kill his wife, and he was the one who reported the case, and he had the time to kill. Evidence can be compensated for by investigative gathering, but motivation and timing are objective, and objective things are always more alarming. So Xiao Jiading felt a little uneasy in his heart.

He pondered for a moment, and finally said to the old woman, "Is the house where your son killed still there?" I want to check it out. ”

Since he had doubts, he wanted to go to the scene to learn more about it in order to determine if what he was thinking was true.

Fei's mother said busily: "Yes, the house has been locked, the house was bought for them, they don't have children yet, the daughter-in-law died, the son was arrested, the house has been empty, and it has not been cleaned, his father said that he is too lazy to care about his affairs, and if he is beheaded, he will sell it directly at a low price." ”

Xiao Jiading was happy in his heart, so that he could better understand the true face of the case. So, Fei's mother took two maids and accompanied him to the scene with the Yamen head catcher.

The small mansion at the scene was not far from his parents' house, just a street away. It seems that what his father said is still angry with him, and he is not willing to go too far to buy a house, hoping that they will still take care of each other. Unfortunately, it still didn't work out.

Fei's mother opened the door, Xiao Jiading pushed the door in, the yard was very small, the murder happened in the bedroom, and when she pushed the door in, she smelled blood. Months have passed, and the smell of blood has not yet dissipated, firstly because the doors and windows are closed, and secondly, because the neck is cut off, and there is too much blood. Xiao Jiading read the transcript of the scene, the bedroom door was open at that time, and according to his memory, when he pushed the door open, he saw a puddle of dark red traces on the ground, which had already dried up and cracked into a shell. The furnishings in the house are still very neat. The furnishings are also good, and it can be seen that it should be a well-off home. It seems that when the family was separated, Master Fei still gave his son a lot of good things.

Xiao Jiading's gaze slowly scanned the room. At the end of the day, his gaze fell on the bloody handprints, which were on the table and the edge of the bed, the one on the table being the most complete.

Xiao Jiading stared at the palm print on the table, and after thinking about it, he tilted his head to inspect it, and he could vaguely identify the lines in the palm print!

Xiao Jiading was excited in his heart, he had studied "Criminal Investigation" in college, and knew some basic knowledge of fingerprint identification, and was ready to make a comparison. Fingerprints are the best evidence to prove that the crime is the same. Because of this, Fei Jin said that he was drunk in the grass at the time, and he slept before going back. When he went back, he found out that his daughter-in-law had been killed. That is, he was not at the scene at the time of the crime. But. However, bloody palm prints the same size as him were found at the scene. Since it is only judged by the size of the palm print whether it was left by the same person, this is very unreliable, if you can identify the fingerprint in the palm print and Fei Jin's same, it will be a certainty.

Xiao Jiading said to the head catcher: "You are watching here." Let no one come in. I'll be right back when I go back. ”

The headcatcher hurriedly agreed. Xiao Jiading rushed back to the prison. Fei Jin's palm print was extracted from rice paper. I didn't know what he was going to do, so I honestly extracted it for him.

Take the palm print back to Fei's house, ask the head catcher to move the table with the bloody handprint to the courtyard under the sun, and then put the bloody handprint on the rice paper next to it. Compare and observe the textures.

Of course, the most valuable comparison is the fingerprint, he doesn't need to compare the specific similarities of the fingerprint, he only needs to compare the type of fingerprint, because what he wants to do is to exclude the identification, that is to say, if this bloody handprint is completely different from Fei Jin's handprint, and it is proved that it is not Fei Jin's, then the possibility that Fei Jin is the murderer is ruled out, so as to prove that Fei Jin was wronged, then it also proves that the judgment of the state government yamen is correct, this is an unjust case.

The type of the first and second fingerprints is the same, but when Xiao Jiading saw the third fingerprint, it was obviously different, the bloody handprint was a bucket pattern, but Fei Jin's was a bucket pattern!

Xiao Jiading had a sense of disappointment, and at the same time a sense of relief. - If it is proved that the fingerprints of these two handprints are the same, that is to say, it is proved that this case was done by Fei Jin, then Princess Yang's task will be completed, and there is no need to find other criminal evidence to punish Fei Jin, but now, it is basically proved that this bloody handprint was not left by Fei Jin, which means that Fei Jin is not a murderer! Then he had to find other evidence to punish him, which was not what Xiao Jiading was willing to do, and he had to do it as a last resort, so he was disappointed. However, after confirming that it was not Fei Jin, Xiao Jiading was relieved and proved that Yamen's judgment was correct, and this was an unjust case. The feeling of discovering an unjust case is really relieved.

Originally, as long as the type of one fingerprint did not match, it would be completely possible to rule out the same handprint, but Xiao Jiading was still very cautious and continued to compare the remaining seven fingerprints one by one, and found that there were a total of three fingerprint types that were obviously different, thus proving that the bloody handprints were not left by Fei Jin at all, but someone else! In other words, the murderer in this case is not Fei Jin!

Xiao Jiading wanted to stop there, but just now when he heard Fei's mother say about Fei Jin's daughter-in-law, he felt that this woman was really pitiful, obedient, like a lamb, a weak woman who had no quarrel with the world, but in the end she suffered a tragic disaster and was killed by someone who cut off her head. is really famous, and I can't help but feel an urge to find the murderer for her to avenge her hatred.

So, he began to carefully survey the entire site, but found nothing new. He was disappointed, touching his chin and groaning, who could the murderer be?

To discover clues about the criminals, new clues must be found, so he decides to carry out some necessary investigations.

The first thing he found was the informant, Fei Jin's neighbor Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li's lips are thin, and at a glance, she knows that Lu Dao is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and her mouth should be very neat, sure enough, after Xiao Jiading asked him to talk about what happened at that time, she gushed endlessly, and the description of the scene is more exciting than watching a movie. It's just that these are not what Xiao Jiading wants to know, but he didn't interrupt his words, because always interrupting the words of the witness will affect the inertia of the witness's memory and thinking.

After finally listening to her, Xiao Jiading asked: "You are their neighbor, you should know them best, with what you see, who could have killed him?" ”

Mrs. Li shook her head: "I can't say for sure, and I don't dare to say nonsense, but Fei Jin's daughter-in-law is really a good person, she never causes trouble, and when she sees other men walking with her head down, she is a very good person, I really can't imagine that anyone will have such a deep hatred for her and cut off her head." Tut-tut! Her husband is really not a thing, he often abuses her, and I heard that he used to beat her! ”

"Haven't you ever beaten her as your neighbor?"

"Not really." Mrs. Li said with certainty, "My house is next door to his house, just across a wall, and I can really hear what is going on in their house." Almost every day his daughter-in-law has to be scolded by him, every time I pay attention to his daughter-in-law's face and arms, but I don't see bruises or anything, I know that she was not beaten, and then I inquired and learned that his daughter-in-law used to be beaten by his husband every day, sometimes it was beaten to death, and several times beat his daughter-in-law to death. After moving in, they didn't fight, because after the two of them were kicked out by his father, they had no money to come from, so they could only rely on their father-in-law to help, and his father-in-law had already said that as long as he dared to beat his daughter again, he would not give them another penny. So this Fei Jin can only scold and dare not fight again. ”

Xiao Jiading said: "Did you hear any movement in their house on the day of the killing?" ”

Fei Jin scolded his daughter-in-law, and scolded until dark in the morning! The scolding is so vicious! That's how he scolded," Mrs. Li cleared her throat, "Your mother sells ××, you stinky bitch, ×!" Eat sows that don't give birth to ......"

"Okay, okay, you don't need to learn this," Xiao Jiading interrupted her colorful performance without bothering you, "Let me ask you, you said that they scolded all day, didn't Fei Jin go to one of his relatives' house to eat and drink that day?" ”

Mrs. Li sneered: "I'll just say that, but he often scolds her daughter-in-law, sometimes for a day!" He scolded that morning and scolded in the afternoon, so I felt like he had been scolding for a day. Hehe, I don't know why he went to eat and drink. ”

Xiao Jiading's heart moved, and he asked, "Did you hear him scolding his daughter-in-law that afternoon?" ”

"yes, scolding him so badly, saying that his daughter-in-law is a shameless rotten bitch......"

"When did you scold?" Xiao Jiading interrupted her, of course he had to interrupt this kind of swear language that had nothing to do with the case. (To be continued......)
