Chapter 109: The Molded Bell Kills the Murderer
Of course, Yuyi himself said that he and Mink Xue made a private agreement for life, of course the women didn't believe it, but fortunately, the teacher Zhang came out to clarify, which increased the credibility of this matter.
In order to let his master come out to clarify, Yu Yi also took a lot of effort, because this matter involved Mink Xue's reputation, but Yu Yi made it clear that he would bear all the consequences, and Zhang also knew that Mink Xue really liked Yuyi, so he agreed to come out to clarify.
In the follow-up investigation, Yuyi found that the villagers of Daoxiang Village generally had a low level of education, so he found Wu Chenggong to make a big pit, established a school, and introduced some teaching gentlemen from other places to improve the education situation in Daoxiang Village.
Of course, these advanced ideas have brought Daoxiang Village to the fast lane, that is, Wu Chenggong's flesh pain, he invested in various infrastructure projects in Daoxiang Village for the right to operate an inn, not only did not make money, but almost used up a fortune left by his father, but Yuyi has been comforting him, the sage Lao Tzu said: "Take it in advance, you must give it first." "How can there be a return if you don't pay, after a few years, he will definitely earn the money back, of course, he will be forever recorded in the development history of Daoxiang Village, which has won him fame.
On this day, Yuyi went to inspect the streets as usual, and suddenly received news. It turned out that the yamen that Li Qingsheng was in charge of was finally built, and he hoped that Yu Yi would go to the court ceremony, and Yu Yi took the lead in this matter, so he naturally went there happily.
Looking at the yamen from afar, Yuyi felt the grandeur of the two big pillars in front of the door, put a big drum outside the door, next to it is a bamboo stick for drumming, to the inside is a courtyard wall to enclose the space of the city, the gate is inlaid in the middle of the courtyard wall, it is two pieces of solid iron door, in the inside, you can see that it is the main hall of the yamen, the youth army has already held the wooden plank, standing in two rows of the main hall, and then up is a table, on which some paper, pen and ink are placed.
"Li Qingsheng, you really did not lose your expectations, you did a good job."
Yuyi reviewed the decoration and couldn't bear to praise.
"Where, I'm afraid that I won't be able to handle this position, I don't think it's okay, you might as well hire someone else."
Li Qingsheng said and pointed to the seat behind the table.
"It doesn't matter, this yamen is also a place to settle our Daoxiang Village armed forces, it is a very important place, I don't feel at ease if I hand it over to others."
Yuyi patted Li Qingsheng's shoulder and explained his intentions.
After listening to Yuyi's explanation, Li Qingsheng's eyes were a little red, but he didn't expect that Yuyi, as a brother, was also far-reaching, so he should do a good job in this part of the work.
Just as Yuyi was about to go to the house behind the main hall to continue his visit, a drum sounded outside the door.
"I didn't expect it, there was business on the first day of the trial, Li Qingsheng, you hurry up and welcome the person who beat the drum in, let's see what's going on?"
After Yu Yi finished speaking, he pointed to the position and made a gesture of please.
Li Qingsheng naturally wanted to be humble, but Yuyi refused, and finally Yuyi sat next to Li Qingsheng, and the two accepted the case together.
"Who's coming, report your name!"
Li Qingsheng knocked on the table and said to the kneeling villagers below.
"I'm Xiao He in the east of the village, and my things at home were stolen by others, so I'm here to report the crime!"
Villager Xiao He answered the question.
Li Qingsheng thought, if something was stolen, the thief must have run away, and now he came to report the case, and he couldn't catch the murderer, so what should he continue to ask, thinking of this, he wanted Yuyi to cast a look for help.
"Did you see the murderer?"
Yuyi exchanged glances with Li Qingsheng, shook his head and continued to ask.
"No, I just saw his back, and I can estimate his approximate height."
Xiao He recalled.
So Yu Yi pointed to the two rows of officers and soldiers standing guard, asked Xiao He to roughly identify a height, and said to Huang Shumin: "You go and arrest all the villagers of a similar height here according to this height." ”
About 10 suspects were quickly caught, and the main hall was filled in an instant.
Yu Yi walked off the field and walked around among the suspects, and found that most of them were expressionless, and it was difficult to judge the murderer by subtle body changes, so he called Lin Zhu and whispered a few words to him.
"According to Xiao He's identification, one of you must be a thief, it just so happens that we have a big bell in Daoxiang Village, I put him in my residence, this bell can automatically help me identify who the murderer is, and the murderer now admits that the punishment can be mitigated."
Yu Yi smiled mysteriously.
Li Qingsheng and the suspects in the seat all laughed when they heard Yuyi's narration, they didn't believe that there could be such a bell in this world to identify the murderer.
It is said that Yuyi found Xiaozhu and asked him to find Lei Chunze, did some processing of the clock, and then took the suspect to the vicinity of the big bell.
Yu Yi ordered people to put the bell in a room, and then lined up the suspects in an order, asking them to go in one by one to touch the bell, before this event was held, Yu Yi also pretended to perform a mysterious sacrifice in front of the bell, only to see him chanting a spell and dancing in front of the bell, as if he was casting some magic for the bell.
The suspects then proceeded to enter the room with the bell in turn, most of them indifferently because they didn't believe that the clock could identify the killer.
After touching the bell, Yuyi summoned everyone to the main hall of the yamen, and then he shuttled through the crowd bell, raised the hand of a suspect high, and said, "This is the murderer." ”
It turned out that Yuyi asked Xiaozhu to inform Lei Chunze to put some ink on the bell, and then used a curtain to cover the bell, as a suspect, his heart was always a little empty, of course he didn't dare to touch the bell, so the suspect did not possess the ink in his hands. After Yu Yi finished speaking, all the suspects present began to notice their hands and also discovered this phenomenon, they all had to admire Yu Yi's wisdom, and Li Qingsheng on the side sighed to himself.
"Okay, you'll do the rest of the work, and there are still some things, so I'll leave first."
Saying that, Yuyi found Lei Chunze and walked out of the main hall together.
Of course, the thief was duly punished, and after this incident, there was not a single case of theft in Daoxiang Village for a long time.
"You are sure to let Li Qingsheng be the head of the yamen, but he can't solve the case without your wisdom."
Lei Chunze asked.
"He's just an afterthought, but most of the time it's still good."
Yu Yi was convinced of his decision.
