I'm going to bring the homeowner. Qiao Sidao.

The owner of the house did not sleep this time, and came in through the back door excitedly, and his son also stood at the door, giving his father courage.

Song Ning asked: "I want to ask you something, when the Tang Mansion was killed, did your small house be rented out?" ”

The owner was stunned for a moment, scratched his head and thought: "The location of my house is not particularly good, and it was ...... at that time."

"Rented out." The landlord's son said, "It's Steward Han." ”

"He still found me, it should be around the first day of the seventh month, I remember it was quite hot."

"He said to rent for half a year, and then he paid half a year's money."

The owner remembered and nodded, "Yes, yes." Steward Han said that he wanted to put his son and daughter-in-law here, because the child was going to study with his husband and be enlightened. ”

"But until October, the house was empty."

Song Ning asked, "Have you gone in and seen it?" ”

"Nope. The first is that Steward Han changed a lock, and the second is that the house money has been collected, so it is not good for us to go in casually. ”

Song Ning smiled and said to the father and son: "Did you hear any special sounds during that period, or when you took over the house, did there any unusual changes in the room?" ”

"Change?" The landlord, father and son, shook their heads, "When the house was collected, it was clean and spotless, and we wondered why Steward Han still cleaned it when there were no residents?" ”

Zhao Yi asked, "Who is going to clean it?" ”

Both father and son shook their heads: "I didn't see anyone, anyway, I hung the key on the door." ”

"It's supposed to be the evening."

"What month was it?" Song Ning asked.

The father and son thought for a while and said, "In less than half a year, the house was returned to us in the month of Layue." ”

Song Ning thanked him and let the father and son go home.

A group of more than a dozen people stood in the abandoned courtyard, staring wide-eyed.

"It's too difficult." An Fu scratched his head, "My lord, are you looking for the murderer now, or are you clearing Songshan's grievances?" ”

Song Ning said: "The evidence of Songshan's innocence is enough, but the murderer is still behind the fog." ”

"Thank you for your hard work, I'll treat you after the case is closed." Song Ning said.

Everyone left the Tang Mansion and went home.

Song Ning stopped in the outer courtyard of the county lord's mansion and said to everyone: "I have decided to open the coffin!" ”

"Seventeen corpses open?" Song Yuanshi said, "It's been three years, is it easy to check?" ”

Song Ning bowed: "It's difficult, but it still has to be checked." ”

"The last fog needs to be cleared for us by the dead."

She made a decision, and no one objected.

The next day, Song Ning didn't go for a run, he arrived at the yamen early, and just sat down to drink tea, when Chang Sui from Shan Kai's side came, and as soon as he saw Song Ning, he said: "Lord Song, you came to the yamen early in the morning, and the little one went to the county lord's mansion to pounce." ”

"What do you command?"

"Yes, the door opened at midnight today, and the person from the express delivery shop came to deliver the letter, saying that the prisoner Zhou Jiang transferred by the Punishment Hall was dead."

Song Ning was stunned.

"How did you die?" She asked.

"Arsenic. Yesterday at noon, I died two quarters of an hour after eating. ”

"Jingzhong thought that the prisoner's death was obviously killed, so he sent news overnight."

Song Ning thanked him.

Zhao Yi and everyone happened to come in, saw her and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Zhou Jiang is dead. Of the four people involved in the case that year, two died, and one Han Shuo was poisoned by arsenic yesterday and hung for his life. ”

Zhao Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "Then only Zhou He is left?" ”

"According to the adult's elimination method, it can only be Zhou He." Shen Wenyu said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the little scholar that Dr. Xu had been bringing came, stood at the door panting, and said, "My lord, Zhou and Zhou He are poisoned, poured, poured on the wonton stall, and my master is pouring medicine to induce vomiting." ”

If you drink less and induce vomiting in time, you can still save it.

"Huh!" Song Ning said, "This is a case of slapping our torture hall in the face, how many people will die in our hands?" ”

Everyone was furious and rushed out.

When they arrived at the wonton stall, they were surrounded by people on all sides, and when everyone saw that the people from the torture hall were coming, they all got out of the way.

Zhou He leaned on the shoulder of the wonton stall owner and vomited in a daze.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!" Dr. Xu wiped his sweat and pointed to the bowl where the overturned table slipped on the ground and there was still a little soup and wonton left, "The bowl is arsenic, and the villain has checked it." ”

Lu Miaomiao squatted down and sniffed vigorously with the bowl.

Song Ning said to Lu Miaomiao: "Smell the corners of your mouth and mouth." ”

"Uh-oh." Lu Miaomiao should be.

Doctor Xu continued: "I should have eaten two wontons, and I happened to meet an acquaintance and said a few words." ”

And the man fell to the ground."

"Fortunately, I didn't eat much, and I didn't drink soup." Doctor Xu sighed, "Otherwise, I really can't save it." ”

Zhou He is not sober, and his state is the same as yesterday when Han Shuo was.

"Which one is an acquaintance?" Song Ning asked.

A young man next to him stood up, stepped forward to salute, and said, "The villain Xue Tao is the dart master of Longxingda, and my family lives in this alley." ”

"I came out to buy wontons today, and I happened to see the second master here, so the villain waited for the wonton gap and chatted with the second master."

"No, I didn't expect the second master to fall to the ground."

Xue Tao had a frightened expression.

"Search and see." Song Ning said to Shen Wenyu.

Shen Wenyu went up to search his body, but Xue Tao was an insider but did not resist, and asked Shen Wenyu to search his body in a regular manner, Shen Wenyu touched his purse from him, and there was nothing else.

Zhou He didn't have anything on him either.

"I'm searching all the wonton stalls." Song Ning said.

A group of people searched the wonton stalls, ingredients, and diners, but there was nothing.

"Where does his family live, and where does his family live?" Song Ning asked Xue Tao.

Xue Tao replied: "The second master's house lives in front, and it is not far away, do you want the villain to take you there?" ”

"Okay." Song Ning bowed his head and went to find Zhou He's home with Xue Tao.

Speaking of close, it is indeed very close, just turn a corner into the opposite alley.

"You knock on the door to inform his family." Song Ning said.

Xue Tao went to knock on the door, and it was a rough mother-in-law who opened the door, and Song Ning pushed the mother-in-law open and entered the door.

It's the door of the backyard.

The yard has only two entrances and no garden, so it is a very practical and compact yard.

In the middle of the yard hangs a pole of long-stemmed greens.

"Who are you looking for?" The mother-in-law asked them.

Song Ning retreated, and Xue Tao stepped forward to talk to her mother-in-law.

Song Ning walked back from the original road, stopped at the corner of the street, and looked at the pedestrians on the road.

In such a morning, there are basically serious things to do when you can go out, so everyone is in a hurry.

There were also many people eating breakfast on both sides of the road.

There are fried fritters and soy milk and bean curd, there are also dumpling shops, and there is only one wonton stall.

Song Ning stopped in front of the dumpling stall, the owner didn't have the heart to do business, the diners didn't dare to eat anymore, and there was no one in front of the stall.

"Is there just a wonton stand here? How do I remember that there were two? Song Ning asked.

When she ran in the morning, she ran here once, and she vaguely remembers.

"Yes, the other one didn't come out today. Otherwise, Master Tuesday will eat over there. ”

Song Ning nodded, and when he turned around, he saw Xue Tao coming out with Zhou He's wife and children, and the family cried and went over there.

Zhou He is five or six years Chinese New Year's Eve old today, and his son is estimated to be sixteen or seventeen years old.

Mrs. Tuesday is well maintained, white and clean, not pretty, but quite the temperament of a big lady.

Song Ning called out to Xue Tao: "Are you out to sell wontons?" Coming to buy every day? ”

Xue Tao should be: "Yes, the villain's father and mother are gone, the daughter-in-law's newborn child is only two months old, and she is tired from feeding at night, so she doesn't get up to cook in the morning, and the villain can't, so she holds the pot every morning, or wontons or dumplings, and always buys a meal for two people." ”

"I see." Song Ning said.

Xue Tao saw that she had no other problems, so he went to help the Zhou family.

"How's it going, is your pulse calming down?" Song Ning asked Dr. Xu.

Dr. Xu replied: "I have to continue to take medicine to raise, arsenic is too poisonous, and I can't keep it if I don't raise it." ”

Song Ning nodded slightly, and said to Mrs. Tuesday: "Bring the person back first, and Dr. Xu will go to see him every day." ”

"I'm going to the house next day, do you think it's feasible?" Dr. Xu asked Mrs. Tuesday.

Mrs. Tuesday couldn't help herself crying, but Zhou He's son answered, and replied: "Then it's up to Dr. Xu." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll prescribe two pairs of medicine first, go back and fry the medicine first, feed it little by little, don't be in a hurry, the more you swallow, the better." Dr. Xu explained.

The Zhou family should be, and the little guy waited for Dr. Xu to prescribe medicine and followed him to grab the medicine.

The people at the scene dispersed, and Song Ning said to Qiao Si: "Find a shovel and dispose of Zhou He's vomit." ”

"I'm coming!" Shen Wenyu said, and directly took a handful of iron with the people on the side, and gave the other party money, "You can buy a new one." ”

The people didn't want money and pushed for a moment, and Shen Wenyu shoveled up the vomit on the ground.

"Take the stall owner and his wife back." Song Ning greeted everyone, and the stall owner and his wife entrusted someone to take care of the stall, because it was Song Ning who handled the case, and everyone was very open.

The group walked an alley, everyone walked forward, Wuxian turned into the alley without a trace, and the others went back to the yamen directly.

All the people who were present at the time left their names and addresses, asked for nothing suspicious, and then put them back.

Half an hour later, Uxian returned.

Everyone was waiting for him and asked, "How?" ”

"I inquired, the owner who can't go out of the stall today is because when he got up the pot last night, the soup was knocked down and splashed on his legs." Wu Xian said, "A layer of skin has fallen off my legs, and people are lying at home, and they can't get out of the stall at all." ”

He paused for a moment and asked, "So, Zhou He's poisoning was also planned in advance?" ”

"That's for sure." Zhao Yi said, "Zhang Biao doesn't know the cause of death, maybe the coffin can be opened and the autopsy can find out the traces of poisoning." ”

"The four people involved in the case are almost going to die."

Wu Xian scolded: "It's a ghost, it's so hateful to do so many things under our noses." ”

"Invite Tang Yun and prepare to open the coffin." Song Ning said to everyone.
