Chapter 23 Pull the list

"Y-Don't come here!" Luo Xing's face changed drastically, his blood was completely gone, and he wanted to run away when he turned around.

"Don't run, get the word clear here." Yan Shi stood up from his seat and gave a look to the two apprentices at the door. The two apprentices reacted, attacked left and right, and caught Luo Xing, who was trying to escape. Since the matter had not yet been clarified, the two apprentices did not act harshly on Luo Xing, they just grabbed their sleeves.

Luo Xing is not a martial artist, his strength is not as good as the two apprentices next to him, and after struggling a few times, he can't break free, so he no longer moves.

The current situation was obvious, Yan Shi looked at Luo Xing, then at Zhao Zheng, and asked, "It seems that there seems to be a bit of a festival between the two of you?" ”

"He was so greedy that he and several other people kidnapped a friend of mine and his daughter, and killed my friend's mother." Zhao Zheng looked at Luo Xing coldly, his eyes were like two sharp swords, running through Luo Xing's body.

"Oh? How could there be such a thing? Yan Shi raised his eyebrows, surprised, and looked at Luo Xing at the door, "He came to me half a year ago after being introduced, because he is good at taking care and is good at calculation, I asked him to be a bookkeeper and take charge of the chores of a mine instead of me." As for who he is, I really don't know. ”

"Looks like you've hired the wrong person, he's not a good thing." Zhao Zheng said.

"Master, don't listen to his one-sided words, I haven't killed anyone at all!" Luo Xing saw that the situation was not good, and said quibblely.

"Shut up, it's not your turn to interject here." Zhao Zheng snorted, forcibly suppressing his anger, if it weren't for the fact that this was the territory of Qishimen. He had already rushed up and slashed Luo Xing. Why bother talking about this?

Luo Xing ignored Zhao Zheng. Still making excuses.

Yan Shi raised his hand to stop him: "Don't talk yet, let Zhao Gongzi finish speaking, and then you defend yourself." ”

Luo Xing still had to rely on the blessing of the strange stone gate, and he didn't dare to disobey the order of the master, so he closed his mouth helplessly. The reason why he is here today is actually a complete coincidence. More than half a year ago, in order to avoid Zhao Zheng's pursuit, he moved his family to the north. When he was halfway there, he made a plan to get rid of the golden silkworm, secretly left his family, and changed his route to the south. He relied on this trick to deceive Zhao Zheng and escaped a catastrophe.

After Luo Xing went south, he didn't dare to contact his relatives and friends, so he walked a long way until he reached Nangan Province before stopping. He concealed his identity, changed his face, and claimed to be Wang Chen. A new life began here. Later, he met a friend here, who introduced him. I got a job at the Strange Stone Gate. He chose the Qishi Gate, firstly because it was relatively remote, and secondly because it was a martial arts sect with a certain amount of security.

Zhao Zheng told Yan Shi about what had happened in the past, starting from when he got a Dan Fang, until Ma An left with his daughter, and the whole process was clear and clear. Yan Shi listened to this story, kept brushing his gray beard, and was silent. Luo Xing was a little flustered at first, but as time passed, he gradually calmed down, and a pair of yin owl eyes turned around, obviously playing a ghost idea.

"It turns out that your real name is Luo Xing, not Wang Chen." Yan Shi cast a stern gaze at Luo Xing,

"The boss is wronged! That's not the case at all, I'm calling Luo Xing true, but it's not as bad as he said, I didn't kill his friend's mother at all, let alone covet his elixir. In fact, he robbed me of my property and chased me everywhere, so I had to flee here incognito. Luo Xing knelt on the ground, kowtowed heavily to Yan Shi a few times, and told another story with tears in his eyes, in which Zhao Zheng was the bad guy and he was the victim.

"Luo Xing, do you think you can save your dog's life by making up a random story?" Zhao Zheng's heart was on fire when he heard this, interrupted Luo Xing's words, and looked at Yan Shi, "Senior, what he said is all nonsense, please believe what I just said, hand him over to me to deal with, and give justice to my friend." ”

"Zhao Gongzi, human life is at stake, don't play with children, although you are my honored guest, but I can't hand over the door to you just by your words. You say that he has done those bad things, then come up with some convincing evidence, and only if the evidence is conclusive, I can hand him over to you. Yan Shi turned to look at Luo Xing, who was kneeling, "You are the same, if you want to prove that you are innocent, you have to show evidence." ”

"This place is thousands of miles away from Qibao County, where can I find evidence for you?" Zhao Zheng frowned.

"Zhao Gongzi, if there is no evidence, I can't hand him over to you, after all, he is a member of my Qishi Sect, and as the head of the sect, I have the responsibility to protect my sect." Yan Shi Zhengse.

"You don't believe what I'm saying?"

"It's not a question of whether you believe it or not, as I just said, human life is at stake, this matter cannot be acted hastily, and it must be revealed."

Zhao Zheng suppressed his anger, thought about it carefully, and felt that what Yan Shi said was also reasonable, just by his words, it was indeed difficult to convince people. However, this place is too far away from Qibao County, and he has important things to do, so it is impossible for him to turn back to find evidence, and if he wants to prove Luo Xing's guilt, he can only find another way.

He thought about it, and then he thought of an interrogation technique that he had learned by chance, and many police officers relied on this method to interrogate prisoners, and it was said that the effect was wonderful.

"I can't get the evidence for the time being, but I have a way to prove what I said!" Zhao Zheng said loudly.

"What's the solution?" Yan Shi asked.

"Luo Xing and I confessed in court and explained the matter in detail several times, so that the truth will naturally surface."

"I'm afraid it's hard to prove anything based on the confession alone."

"Seniors, rest assured, it can't be fake, and it can't be fake."

"Alright, you two can confess on the spot. This matter does have to be made clearer. Yan Shi nodded.

"We'll interrogate him first, and then I'll tell me what happened. Having someone come and get some pen and paper and write down everything we both said is important to get to the bottom of the matter. ”

"Someone, listen to Zhao Gongzi's words, and bring the pen and paper."

After such a fuss, a lot of people have gathered outside the door. Hear the orders of the boss. Someone immediately took the pen and paper. Zhao Zheng asked Luo Xing to stand opposite him. Approached Luo Xing with his gaze and asked Luo Xing to repeat the story he had just made. Every time Luo Xing speaks, someone is responsible for writing and recording a sentence.

When Luo Xing was halfway through, Zhao Zheng suddenly interrupted Luo Xing's words: "Slow, you said that I met you when I was doing business, and then started the idea of your family property, what kind of business did I do with you at that time?" ”

"Yes, it's a cloth business, you ask me to buy cloth." Luo Xing was stunned for a moment. replied.

"I was still the second shopkeeper of the inn at the time, how could I have the money to do business with you?"

"You are Shen Luoxia's younger brother, of course you have money to do business."

"Okay, then let me ask you, how many pieces of cloth did I buy from you at that time?"

"Three, thirty horses."

"What kind of cloth is it?"

"It's the best cicada wings."

"What color?"

"Green." Luo Xing frowned, "Do you ask if these details are useful?" ”

"Of course it works, you just answer obediently." Zhao Zheng continued to ask in detail, not letting go of every detail.

Luo Xing had to continue to make it up, and in order to make a lie come true, he weaved more lies.

It took half an hour. Luo Xingcai finished talking about Zhao Zheng snatching his property. He breathed a sigh of relief and his throat moved. Moisturized the thirsty mouth. The apprentice in charge of recording counted it, and Luo Xing's words were written down on a dozen pieces of paper.

Just when everyone thought that the questioning was over, Zhao Zheng said: "Okay, you repeat what you just said." ”

"Retell?" Luo Xing asked with a glare.

"Yes, repeat. What Master Yan said is right, human life is at stake, how can it be child's play, in order to take it seriously, of course, I have to ask it several times. ”

"That'...... All right. In order to prove what he just said, Luo Xing had to obediently restate it.

"Little brother who holds the pen, please record what he said again, if you are tired of writing, write it again, and make sure that there is a record of every time he says." Zhao Zheng told the person from the Qishimen who was writing, and the latter nodded in agreement.

Luo Xing began to repeat what he had just said, starting with this unwarranted story.

Zhao Zheng interrupted Luo Xing's words from time to time as last time, asking questions about the details, and this time he asked in more detail.

What Luo Xing said was all fabricated out of thin air, it was inevitable that there were mistakes in memory, and when he spoke, he leaked his mouth, and there were errors before and after, just now he said that it was a green cloth, this time he said it was a red cloth, just now he said that Zhao Zheng killed more than a dozen people in his family, and this time he said that he killed more than 20 people.

Zhao Zheng has a good memory, and he remembers what Luo Xing said, and when he found out that Luo Xing had said something leaky, he snorted coldly, which scared Luo Xing into a cold sweat.

This method of interrogation, in which the prisoner repeatedly dictates issues related to the case, is called "pulling a list", and the more the list is contained and the number of times it is repeated, the better. In the process of repeated retelling, most of the prisoners will be exposed.

Luo Xing vaguely guessed Zhao Zheng's intentions, and was more careful in the retelling process, for fear that he would make mistakes, but some mistakes could not be avoided at all, and the content of his restatement was still full of loopholes.

Yan Shi walked to the table, examined the two dictated contents, and after comparing them, he found a lot of contradictions, and he had a plan in his heart.

The second retelling was over, and Zhao Zheng forced Luo Xing to say the third and fourth times, forcing Luo Xing into a cold sweat, and when Luo Xing finished saying the fifth time, Zhao Zheng felt that he was almost asked, and stopped asking. Luo Xing wiped a cold sweat, and his clothes were already soaked.

"Senior, as long as you compare the five transcripts, you will naturally be able to find the problems inside, and with your intelligence, you will definitely be able to judge whether what Luo Xing said is true or false." Zhao Zheng said.

"I have read all five transcripts, and there are indeed many contradictions." Yan Shi nodded.

"Lord Boss, these things have passed for too long, it's normal for me to remember some things wrong, this doesn't mean anything!" Luo Xing stepped forward and quibbled.

"Mistaken? You keep saying that I killed many of your family members, this unforgettable hatred, will you still remember it wrong? Zhao Zheng asked coldly.

"You've asked so many questions, of course I'll answer them wrong, and if I ask you so many questions, you'll answer them incorrectly!"

"Okay, then this time it's your turn to ask me, and I'll answer your questions." Zhao Zheng is ready to accept the same test as Luo Xing, only in this way can people be convinced.

Luo Xing wished he could interrogate Zhao Zheng, if what Zhao Zheng said was full of loopholes, then others would not be able to distinguish the true from the false, and he would at least be able to save a small life in a short time. He began to interrogate Zhao Zheng in turn, and learned from Zhao Zheng's appearance just now, sometimes interrupting Zhao Zheng's words and asking for some details.

Zhao Zheng was not afraid of these questions at all, and answered them one by one, and even told those details without waiting for Luo Xing to ask. Listening to his narration next to them, they had the illusion of being there, as if those things had happened in front of their eyes.

Luo Xing listened to Zhao Zheng speak carefully, but he was a little at a loss, because Zhao Zheng took the initiative to say everything he wanted to ask.

Zhao Zheng talked eloquently, and said all the things about Luo Xing's harm, and after finishing speaking, without waiting for Luo Xing's urging, he took the initiative to talk about it a second time. He said that he had personally experienced it, and of course he remembered it profoundly, and when he retold it a second time, it was still the same as he had just said, and there was no mistake in the slightest.

Seeing this, Luo Xing's face became even more ugly, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get down and escape from this ghost place.

Zhao Zheng finished speaking a second time, and then said a third time, and the content of the three times was almost identical.

When Zhao Zheng wanted to say it for the fourth time, Yan Shi stopped him, and said with a calm old face: "Zhao Gongzi, you stop for a moment, there is no need to repeat it, I believe that you will not be wrong if you continue to say it." ”

"Senior, everything I just said is true, and I hope that my predecessor will take charge of this matter and give justice to Ma An's family." Zhao Zheng hugged his fist at Yan Shi and pleaded.

"Don't worry, the old man will handle it properly, you said so much, you must be tired, let's go back to the house and rest first." Wait until tomorrow daylight, and I will give you an answer on behalf of Qishimen. ”

"Senior, through the interrogation just now, right and wrong have been made clear, why not make a decision on the spot?"

"Just those words just now can't make a conclusion."

"Forgive the courage of the junior, if you still don't believe me, you can torture the two of us, and he will definitely give it all under the punishment waiting!" Zhao Zheng's eyes lit up, and he proposed a bolder way of interrogation, although this would cause him a little hardship, but he didn't care. This time, he will not let Luo Xing go again no matter what.

"By all means, you are a distinguished guest of the Qishimen, how can I torture you." Yan Shi waved his hand again and again.

"I volunteered."

"That's not okay, the old man doesn't want to bend into a move."

"But if he doesn't fight, how can he tell the truth?" Zhao Zheng pointed to Luo Xing's nose, who avoided his gaze and did not dare to look at him.

"Zhao Gongzi, don't worry, this matter is not in a hurry, let me discuss it with the elders in the door first, and then make a decision. The old man assures you that he will deal with it impartially and will not show favoritism to anyone. Yan Shi Zhengse said.

Zhao Zheng glanced at Yan Shi deeply, and seeing that Yan Shi's gaze was resolute, he had to compromise and said, "Okay." I'll go back and wait for your news first. (To be continued.) )
