Chapter Twenty-Three: The Murderer
When the shopkeeper heard Situ Yimo's words, he knew that she was not easy to fool, so he swallowed the prevarication he had planned, and when he saw that she was a girl looking around at the corpse, he couldn't help but be a little stunned.
The catcher behind him wanted to scold Situ Yimo, but he stopped them, seeing that they were puzzled, Zheng Pengxian frowned and said, "This girl is not an ordinary person, she gives me a little eyesight!"
As soon as the catchers heard this, they immediately became respectful to Situ Yimo, and deliberately made a way for her to take a closer look at the corpse.
Su Hanyu tilted his head slightly, looking at Situ Yimo who was examining the corpse quite interestingly, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and his smile was thick.
She really deserves to be the daughter of the general who protects the country!
This kind of courage is really not something that ordinary women can have.
When the surrounding people saw Situ Yimo and a girl's family blatantly looking at the corpse, they didn't blink their eyes, and their awe suddenly rose up, they all took a step back and looked at Situ Yimo quietly.
"He wasn't the killer." Situ Yimo said lightly.
Zheng Pengxian, the head of the shop, frowned, looked at the silk handkerchief in Situ Yimo's hand, paused, and asked, "Why did the girl conclude that the murderer was not Li Jinbang!"
"Look at his hands."
"Hands?"
When Zheng Pengxian heard this, he immediately looked at Li Jinbang's hands, which were black and shriveled, and couldn't help frowning, "What's wrong with his hands?" ”
"There are no scratches on his hands, and you have concluded that the deceased was murdered, then he must have struggled before he died, so it is likely that the murderer had a wound on the back of his hand." Situ Yimo's tone was still cold.
When Li Jinbang heard this, he seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and hurriedly exposed the back of his hand, showed them, and shouted, "I have no scars on my hands, and I am not the one I killed." ”
Zheng Pengxian, the head catcher, frowned, and after thinking about it carefully, it was indeed possible, but it was just ......
"This is just one of them, and the second is the silk thread in his fingers, which should have been torn from the murderer when he was struggling, and this silk thread does not match Li Jinbang's linen clothes." Situ Yimo continued, handing the silk thread in the handkerchief to the head catcher.
Zheng Pengxian, the head of the shop, took a closer look, compared with Li Jinbang's clothes, it was indeed different, seeing Situ Yimo's eyes on the deceased's face, he raised his eyebrows slightly, returned the veil to her, and asked.
"Girl, and the third?"
"Yes, the third is the marks on the deceased's face, which should have been left by the murderer, this trace is very similar to the thumb print, the key is that there is a horn on it, and the person's thumb print will not have horns, unless the person wears a wrench on his thumb!"
Li Jinbang immediately raised his hand and shouted, "I don't have a wrench on my thumb!"
Zheng Pengxian, the head of the shop, looked at Situ Yimo's calm and indifferent face, was stunned for a moment, and then asked his subordinates to let them go, and those catchers were a little hesitant.
"The murderer is not him, let the people go."
"But ......"
"Huh?"
"Yes."
Seeing the eyes of the catchers, the catchers had no choice but to let the people go.
Situ Yimo was slightly surprised when he saw that the head catcher was so happy to release people, and then hooked his lips and smiled, "Since the murderer is not him, then there is naturally someone else." ”
When the head catcher heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, "The girl knows who the murderer is?" ”
Situ Yimo raised his eyes to look at the crowd, hooked his lips and chuckled, "Whoever wants to leave at this time is who." ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone looked at the crowd, and then the eyes of the villagers were on the back of a young man, and the villagers consciously retreated, leaving him alone with his obvious back to everyone.
"Catch him!" The headcatcher's eyes narrowed, and people immediately grabbed him, ignoring his struggles and shouting for wrongdoing, and his eyes were only on his clothes and the backs of his hands.
"Boss, he has scratches on the back of his hands, and he wears a jade wrench on his thumb!"
The villagers immediately understood, "It turned out to be the person He Dalang killed!"
"It's not me, I'm wronged!" He Dalang struggled desperately, shouting that he was wronged.
"Humph! Treat unjustly! The clothes on your body are the same as the silk threads in Zhao Er's fingers!" The headcatcher snorted coldly.
He Dalang shouted injustice, "My lord, you are wronged!" I'm not the only one who wears this fabric! ”
Suddenly, one of the catchers frowned, leaned over to the catcher and whispered in his ear, "Boss, this He Dalang is the elder brother of the county commander's concubine!" ”
When the head catcher heard this, he secretly scolded in his heart, who doesn't know that adults love Aunt He very much!
If He Dalang kills someone, will it have anything to do with adults? Before, this Zhao Er often went in and out of the government......
If that's the case! Then I'm in trouble!
What a damn one!
What is this girl doing here!
You can't get married properly! Wearing a wedding dress to dangle in front of the dead, and you are not afraid of rushing into joy!
"Bring him back to the yamen first, is it wronged, there is a judgment from the county commander!"
Situ Yimo's eyes narrowed, she saw that the face of the head catcher was different, so she guessed that there was something hidden in the matter, it seems that this person's identity is not very simple!
can make the head catcher jealous, isn't it a relative of the county magistrate?
It seems that it is necessary to go to the county office!
Seeing that Situ Yimo didn't say anything, the head catcher breathed a sigh of relief, but just as he was about to leave, he heard her say, "It just so happens that this girl has time, so I might as well follow you to the yamen." ”
"This ......"
The back of the head catcher stiffened, the scalp was numb, and when he saw her go to the yamen, his face was so relaxed, it can be seen that he really guessed correctly, this girl really has a great background!
"You lead the way." Situ Yimo saw that their faces were not very good, and he hooked his lips and chuckled, "Let's go!"
"Yes Yes ......"
Su Hanyu raised his eyebrows, he wanted to say something, but he saw Situ Yimo turn around and come over, "Brother Su, why don't you go together?" Just enough to let the people in the yamen help find Nirui and them. ”
"Sister! I want to go to the Yamen too!"
Xi Niang suddenly looked at Situ Yimo with admiration, and Old Woman Li also looked at Situ Yimo with a grateful face.
"My sister is so powerful, let them let go of the little uncle in a few words!"
"Yes, yes, thank you girl for saving me!"
Xi Niang's uncle was also busy thanking him, and he was frightened, for fear that he would not be able to come back if he went to the yamen.
Situ Yimo stretched out his hand to hold Xi Niang, raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "If you don't learn and don't know how to do things, you won't be killed if you don't learn and do some things like stealing chickens and dogs!"
"Yes, yes, the villain doesn't dare anymore."
Situ Yimo didn't believe his words, but said, "I look at that person and seems to have some background, maybe when the time comes, he will be acquitted, and the charge of murder will still fall on you!"
Li Jinbang's face turned pale suddenly, and he was so frightened that he almost fell down, seeing Situ Yimo and them walking away, he hurriedly followed, I don't know why, he felt that he could be safe and sound with Situ Yimo.
Situ Yimo led Xi Niangle to the yamen leisurely, but he didn't know how dark the face of the head catcher in front of him was, he was going to die in a hurry, if Zhao Er's death was really related to the adult, the consequences would ......
Here, the Nirui county lord and they didn't see Situ Yimo all night, and they were all worried about death, but they didn't know how to find someone, so Xinglu wanted to come to the yamen to have a look, and let them post a notice, anyway, they all had to pass through the town, so that their county lord knew to come to the yamen to find them when he saw the notice.
I never thought that before this notice was posted, the lord of their family came, still wearing a wedding dress!
Xinglu and Gan Tang were dumbfounded, standing in place in a daze, not knowing what was going on, why the lord of their family was wearing a wedding dress with his son.
"County, county...... How do you dress like this? Xinglu was the first to come back to her senses, looking dazed.
Situ Yimo was slightly surprised when he saw them, and when he saw their stunned appearance, he suddenly remembered the wedding clothes on his body, and couldn't help but feel embarrassed, "It's a long story, let's talk about it first." ”
"Yes......" Xinglu glanced at Su Hanyu vigilantly, and then saw Situ Yimo limping, and hurriedly went over to help her, very worried, "What's wrong with your leg?" ”
"A little bit of a wound."
Gan Tang also came back to his senses at this time, glanced at the little girl behind him, and then at Su Hanyu next to him, and followed behind Situ Yimo in a daze.
The head catcher frowned, called the catcher who was holding the notice, and asked what was going on, and the catcher said that the county lord of Nirui had come to the county office, and said that he had come to find the county lord of Anhe.
Hearing the names of the county lord of Nirui and the county lord of Anhe, the head catcher's body suddenly stiffened, his eyes widened, full of astonishment, and he couldn't believe his ears, "You say, the county lord of Nirui, come to find the county lord of Anhe?" ”
"Yes, these notices were still ordered by the county lord of Nirui, but just now Miss Gantang said that there was no need to post them, saying that the county lord of Anhe had found them."
"Find, find?" Catching the head suddenly felt bad, an invisible pressure hit, I felt that my teeth were bitten by myself, looking at Situ Yimo, who had long since disappeared, his body fell back, full of horror.
"She, she, she, is the lord of Anhe!"
"Weicheng Double Yaksha!"
In the study of the county commander, there was also a frightened shout, "You said that the county lord An and the county lord are here!!"
It was Zheng Qili, the county commander of Luo County, who made a frightened sound
"It's not just the Lord of Anhe, the Lord of Nirui is in the lobby!" The master's face was also ugly.
"What!!"
Zheng Qili only felt that his eyes were black, and he was almost fainting, but fortunately, the master quickly helped him in time, "My lord, you have to be strong!" At this time, you can't fall! ”
"I... I ......" Lord Zheng's hands trembled, his tongue was knotted, and he couldn't speak clearly, "Weicheng Shuangyasha has come to Luo County?" ”
"yes!" The master was also in a hurry, and his beard was crooked, "Not only that, but the county lord of Anhe also met Zhao Er's corpse!"
"What!!" The black gauze hat on Lord Zheng's head was crooked with fright, full of horror. "How could she meet Zhao Er!"
"The villain doesn't know either!" The master's face turned white with fright, "My lord, not only that, but the county lord also arrested Uncle He!"
"What!!"
"Oh, my lord! You have to hold on! ”
Master Zheng felt that his heart was about to jump out, he clutched his chest, and felt a cold swishing behind him, "It's over, I'm going to be done!" This Anhe county lord has come to the door!"
"It's over, master, I'm done!"
"When I met the county lord of Anhe, I can't keep the black gauze hat on my head!"
"What a good thing that is!"
"No, I need to run away!"
