The governor of Tianlong Villa, Bu Zhenshan, was supervising on the side, he listened to the words of Qi Zuo and Wang Zhengxiao's guards, and saw that Li Mo didn't say anything, so he couldn't help but say: "Clerk Li, isn't this a robbery case after burglarizing and waking up the master?" ”

“……… The case now seems to be true, but ........."

Li Mo looked at the old servant who was crying on the side and said, "You said that when you got up to call the master during the fourth watch, you found that the master had fallen in the red pool from the crack in the door, did you lose anything valuable at home?" ”

The old servant's eyes were red from crying, he opened a pair of blistering eyes, and said sadly: "I have to call the young master to study and study every morning, and the old man spent a lot of money in order to let the young master read......... A few days ago, an old man found someone to send a bag of silver, about five hundred taels, and it cost at most ten taels in the past two days, and the rest must have been robbed by the thief. ”

"Five hundred taels of silver, that's not a lot........."

The next moment, Li Moyi's face turned cold, and he suddenly shouted, "Why are you lying to us?" But you saw that the wealth uprising killed your young master? ”

"No......... I, I'm wronged, big man, I'm wronged!! ”

The old servant knew who was the most talking, and he climbed up to Buzhen Mountain twice and cried to him.

Bu Zhenshan raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Mo.

Li Moyi sneered and said: "It's been three or four hours since the fourth watch, if you keep crying until now, it's normal for your eyes to be red and swollen like this, but ......... There's one thing that's not quite right........."

After a pause, Li Moyi continued: "You old servant has blank eyes, dark bags under your eyes, and a sallow complexion......... Presumably often sleepless all night......... If you live next door, how can you not hear your young master's cry for help in the middle of the night? "Hurry up and tell the truth, if you dare to say a fake, I will ask the chief to slap the mouth."

"I ........."

The old servant trembled for a while, and finally lowered his head and explained, "......... I was wrong, I shouldn't have done it, I shouldn't have gone all night to play horse cards, otherwise the young master wouldn't have died here, woo......... It's all my fault, it's all my fault........."

The old servant howled and cried, this time it was really sad to cry, this kind of small trick that felt people's looks could be done in a few steps, he calmed down and asked, "Scribe Li, what should I do now?" ”

Li Moyi said: "Don't worry, my lord, I still have something to ask him." ”

Li Mo shouted at the old servant and said, "Don't cry, who knows about the silver sent by your master?" Did you take the money yourself? ”

The old servant cried and said: "No one knows, although I am good at playing cards, but I am loyal to the master, how can I harm the young master for these silver, I live in a room on the side, and the adults can send someone to search if they don't believe it." ”

Li Moyi called a pawn from the local guard team.

The pawn confirmed: "I was patrolling the streets this morning, and when I heard that there were dead people here, I rushed over at once, and after seeing the corpse through the crack in the door, we did not enter immediately, but reported it to the official residence, and I did not enter the room through the side door until the adults came, and opened the door behind the back, and absolutely no one touched the things in the house." ”

A nearby guard added, "My lord, there are no traces of prying on the side doors of the main entrance, and there are no silk thread mechanisms. ”

Wang Zheng's little guard said: "There are no traces of prying on the windows on the east and west sides, and there are no climbing marks and footprints on the walls. ”

…………

Li Moyi, who had investigated the case in Sanhe Village, first suspected that someone from the martial arts had committed the crime, but he didn't come to a conclusion so quickly.

I took a brief turn around the room.

The two windows in the room were always open, and the murderer could easily enter the house, but the outer wall was about a foot high, and it was a little difficult to climb in without leaving any marks.

Li Moyi came to a small courtyard outside the house again, he carefully observed the red stains on the ground and the traces of the fight, and saw that there were also a little red stains on the ground outside the house, extending from the main house to the door of the side room.

On the door of the main house, Li Moyi also found a vague footprint that was easy to ignore.

Li Moyi carefully observed the shape of the footprints and the direction he was stepping into, and his heart suddenly moved, and he looked at it carefully again to confirm that he was not mistaken.

Then he came to the bottom of the wall, and at last he found a footprint about three inches long, which obviously could not have been left by the deceased or his old servant.

Seeing this little footprint, Wang Zheng's little guard blurted out and exclaimed, "Could it be that the murderer is a female thief?" ”

"Don't jump to conclusions." Li Mo scolded him and said, "Normally, a woman with bound feet has a hard time walking on the main road, is it possible to jump over the high wall?" ”

Wang Zheng's little guard smiled and hid aside.

Li Moyi glanced at several guards, pointed at one of the guards and said, "You, come to me." ”

…………

The guard came to Li Moyi inexplicably, and Li Moyi called him again and handed him a short stick: "You give me a comparison, how did the murderer's two knives stab in, pay attention to the angle and don't make a mistake." ”

Seeing that the guard was about the same height as the deceased, he understood what Li Moyi meant, and immediately took the short stick and gestured with it.

…………

After a simple analogy, everyone understood that the first of the two knives pierced the heart of the deceased from the bottom up, and the second knife from the top down.........

In this way, Li Mo had a bottom in his heart.

I saw him suddenly turn around and say, "Master Bu, I already know the general situation of the murderer and the process of killing people.........

After a pause, "......... The murderer was supposed to be two people, one of whom was shorter, possibly a dwarf or a child, who was responsible for infiltrating the theft......... The other man is seven feet tall, and he is powerful........."

“……… Last night, the tall man first threw the short man into the wall, the short man was found by the master when he climbed through the window to steal, and then escaped and pushed the door bolt to open the door, the tall man pulled out his knife and rushed towards the deceased, the deceased once ran to the side room next to him and tried to wake up the servant for help, but he didn't expect the servant to sneak out from the side door to put up the card, he had to resist while fleeing back to the main room, and was stabbed by the short man from the bottom up in a panic, and immediately tried to close the door to stop the theft......... As a result, he was kicked open by a tall murderer and chased into the room, and was stabbed to death. ”

This analysis finally gave way to some recognition from Zhenshan, he said: "Yes, the great scribe Li is really extraordinary, but I still have some doubts in my heart, the height of the murderer has been deduced, but how did you deduce the murder process as if you witnessed it with your own eyes?" ”

Li Moyi said: "I'll explain this to the adults later, now please order the murderer to be arrested first, there are two murderers, one of them is about seven feet tall and has a strong body, and the other is at most three feet tall, a dwarf or a child, both men and women are possible, they may be jugglers in the surrounding area......... The most likely is a skill person such as stepping on stilts and climbing poles, as long as it is a similar body type, it can be brought back for questioning, and the murderer's methods are very cruel, and those who go to arrest must pay attention to their own safety. ”

Bu Zhenshan quickly dispatched the orders one by one.

Li Moyi then explained to him: "My lord, the red trails on the ground can tell us the route of the deceased when they escaped......... Naturally, it can also tell us the direction of the deceased's travel, and if you look closely at the red stains on the ground, you should be able to find that they are all in one direction, which means that the deceased was seriously injured after leaving the side room, and the face will not be scratched so red. ”

Bu Zhenshan looked at the red trails on the ground carefully, and Li Moyi said again: "Adults can ask someone to bring a bowl of water, we wave our fingers on the ground with water, and the direction of the water trails dripping forward or backward is exactly the opposite." ”

"I understand, the great scribe Li is observant, and he really deserves the name of a god."

Bu Zhenshan understood when he thought about it, this thing could be discovered with a little attention, but before that, he had completely ignored it.

"Priest? Li Taiping is only in the realm of Tianlong Villa, how can he bear this title......... Where did you hear that? Li Mo's eyes widened and he said in surprise.

Bu Zhenshan smiled and said: "But in a few days, the big case of the shipwreck of the scholar has been solved, and the name of Li Da Scribe has spread all over Tianlong Villa, if the murderer of this case is successfully caught today, I am afraid that the name of your priest is in the realm of our Tianlong Villa, and everyone will know it, and you deserve it, so you don't need to be polite." ”

"Li knows what he is, but he really doesn't dare to be it."

Li Mo said in a sweat, who wants to harm him, taking such a resentful name, isn't this pushing him to the crater?

The two of them held and pushed one by one, and simply went back and forth a few times.

Suddenly, there was a cheer outside the door.

A few guards dragged two bundles of people running in happily, and said loudly: "Master Bu, Li Da Shu, the murderer has been successfully captured, and they are still performing on that field, seeing us search all the way, the big man dropped the stake and ran, and the little one who was performing on it was as nimble as a monkey, and he jumped down from a height of three feet and was unharmed, and the brothers rushed up together and took down the two of them on the spot.........

Bu Zhenshan glanced at Li Moyi with admiration, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, this case may be solved by another person, but it may not be so fast, this Li Moyi does have a little ability.

"But anyone is hurt?" Li Mo asked.

The guard replied, "The brothers are not hurt, but when the pole falls, it hits two people who cannot escape, and they are all bruised, and they are not in the way." ”

Li Mo nodded and said, "That's good, Master Bu, this case has been solved, and the next matter will be handed over to you to deal with, I will go to Lord Xie to report my life, do you have any other orders?" ”

Bu Zhenshan said: "You wait for a while, I will go back with you to explain to Master Xie." ”

…………

Bu Zhenshan hurriedly asked about the case, and the father and son saw that there was no possibility of getting out, and the words were also refreshing, and they were recruited on the spot like pouring beans into the bamboo tube, and everything was really as Li Moyi deduced.

The father alternately jacks up the high wooden stakes with his shoulders, head, and back, and the son climbs to the top of the pole like a monkey, making difficult movements such as golden rooster independence, attracting onlookers to pay for silver rewards.

This acrobatic technique requires good cooperation and a good sense of balance, so when the two of them are walking, the tall father often carries his son on his shoulders, and even makes a short pole on his shoulders, so that his son can stand high on it, so that he can maintain a sense of balance at any time, and it is very eye-catching.

After closing the stall yesterday afternoon, the father swaggered across the street with his son in such a high position, when the deceased happened to count the silver in the house, because of the ventilation, the east and west windows happened to be wide open, and the deceased did not expect that the wall was so high that no one could see the house.

As soon as the father heard his son talk about the big ingots on the other side of the wall, he lost his mind and threw his son over the wall in the middle of the night to steal the money, and everything happened unstoppably.

…………

…………

Bu Zhenshan handed over the two prisoners to the transcript companion who had been recording beside him, and returned to the Tianlong Villa Mansion with Li Moyi.

…………

…………

Unlike ordinary small towns, Tianlong Villa occupies a huge area.

Therefore, it is bounded by the middle canal, and is divided into two small cities in the north and south, both under the jurisdiction of the official residence of Tianlong Villa.

…………

Bu Zhenshan and Li Moyi together sent a mission to the county official - Xie Qian.

Bu Zhenshan praised Li Moyi a lot, Xie Qian heard that the case was solved in an instant, he was very happy, and he looked at Li Moyi even more differently.

How can such talents be idle?

Xie Qian remembered that there was still a backlog of old cases in his hands that had not been solved.

He immediately squinted his eyes and said to Li Moyi: "Clerk Li, the conclusion of this case shows that you are really worthy of the name of a god, and this mission will definitely ask for credit for you......... But......... I'm afraid it's hard to convince the adults above that it's just such a case........."

“……… In this way, there are still some old cases on my desk that have not been solved, and you can help me deal with them as well, with your ability, of course......... Bencha doesn't force you to be able to solve the case quickly in a few days, Bencha plans to transfer you over to a big use, I don't know if you are willing? ”

Can Li Moyi not agree?

But since it's just an investigation, it's not a big deal," ......... The investigation of the case is all within the power of Li........."

"Hahaha, this is very good, Secretary Li has worked hard to solve the case, you might as well rest for two days, I will ask someone to copy a copy of those case files and send them to the house." Xie Qian said with squinted eyes.

Li Mo was stunned for a moment: "My lord, I have been living in the official residence with the guards for the past few days, and it was arranged by Lord Bu personally, Li has nothing to do now, it is better to look at the case file first and familiarize myself with the situation........."

Xie Qian smiled and said: "Living in a small clerk's house is really wronged by Clerk Li, otherwise Clerk Li will move to my house, and talk to Clerk Li often, I will definitely be able to gain a lot of knowledge, and I will not be confused when I encounter cases in the future." ”

Bu Zhenshan suddenly smiled and said, "Why hasn't Li Da Scribe's newly purchased house moved in yet?" Don't you want to find a good life? I don't think it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, how about I go to your mansion with Lord Xie to celebrate the opening of the mansion for Scribe Li? ”

"This ........."

Li Moyi smiled bitterly and said, "This ......... A newly bought mansion with nothing in it........."

Bu Zhenshan smiled and said, "Is there nothing in the house?" This is easy to do, everyone will be colleagues in the future, it is better for Lord Xie to take the lead, and our big and small errands in Tianlong Villa will go to the Li Mansion tonight to disturb them......... Li Da Scribe's mansion hasn't been listed yet, right? Step someone to send a plaque to Li Da Scribe. ”

Imperial Officer Xie was taken advantage of by him, and then said: "Scholar Li, you don't have to shirk anymore, this proposal of Master Bu is very good, Master Bu is good at calligraphy, it is most appropriate to write a plaque, what should the old man send?" That's a lot to think about......... Scribe Li, is there anything missing in the house? ”

…………

…………

Finally escaped, Wang Zheng's little guard couldn't help but approach when he saw Li Mo's pale face, "Brother Li, what's wrong with you?" ”

Li Moyi sighed and said to them, "......... Actually, I bought a mansion in the city, I don't know how to give it to Lord Xie, they know, they plan to go to my mansion tonight to celebrate the opening of the mansion for me........."

Wang Zheng's little guard said without surprise: "Isn't this a good thing, Brother Li, why is your face so bad?" ”

"You know that, too?"

Li Mo looked at him in surprise.

Wang Zheng's little guard smiled and said: "It's not too early, that is, the guards who came back from solving the case just now talked too much about you, Brother Li, after they said that you are a nobleman, there are people around you who secretly protect themselves, is this true?" ”

Li Mo only sighed for a while when he faced this pair of expectant eyes.........

…………

…………

After fixing his mind, he saw that Wang Zheng's little guard should look like this.

Li Mo opened his mouth and said, "......... It's okay now, just go back to the house with me, help prepare, and greet the adults........."

…………

…………

Li Moyi This is the second time he has returned to this mansion, and he can't believe that Wei Bushan's kid is so good at business.

…………

As soon as they entered the house, Wang Zheng's little guards were also dumbfounded, and they really didn't dare to imagine that they would be able to have such a house one day.

Wei Bushan also changed his deputy head, sweeping away the shabby and dirty before.

In fact, he helped Li Moyi buy this house and spent more than 20,000 taels, and the remaining silver was left with two hundred taels in addition to the part of daily expenses.

Yesterday, he worked tirelessly to buy a large number of rice noodles and shipped them back to Tianlong Villa, which doubled when he changed hands.

…………

…………

Li Mo was walking towards the gate with one step.

Everyone closed their mouths in surprise, and a guard nearby grabbed Wang Zhengxiao's guard, who wanted to follow curiously to take a look, and said with a smile: "......... Steward Wei, if there is anything delicious and delicious, we don't have to accompany those adults, and we don't have a special companion, let's get drunk and rest!! ”

"The villain is not a housekeeper, the housekeeper here is the villain's uncle, you can call him Weibo........."

When Wei Bushan was introducing, Li Mo left alone.
