Liu Zhiran on the side couldn't help but be a little moved, his eyes widened in surprise, Bai Luo in front of him was not very old, according to the information he obtained, in any year, he was basically not doing his job, busy with fish and flesh, and had never dealt with a case seriously.

I didn't expect this Bai Luo to be so talented in this aspect of work.

At this moment, Liu Zhiran's inner sigh was the same as Uncle Miao's: it's a pity that he is a corrupt official......

I saw Uncle Miao break Li Tiegen's mouth, sniff it first, and then took out the silver needle and pierced it from the throat and stomach respectively, the silver needle was as white as ever, and did not change color.

Bai Luo knew that this was due to the relatively single poison in ancient times, and the people generally used arsenic, and the process of making arsenic was backward, resulting in arsenic containing a small amount of sulfur and sulfide.

Silver will turn black when it encounters sulfur and sulfide, so ancient people generally used silver needles to test poison.

In ancient times, this method was indeed feasible and effective, but in modern times it does not work.

Bai Luo slowly took off his gloves and looked at Li Tiegen's wound and fell into deep thought.

Li Tiegen's injuries and the cause of death are so simple that they are clear at a glance, and there is no doubt at all.

But it is full of suspicion and unusualness.

Bai Luo had already seen the Shen family and the scholar Chen Li in the morning, one of them was a weak woman with a slender figure, and the other was a thin scholar who was powerless.

Can such two people use bricks to shoot these five big and three thick Li Tiegen to death at once?

Bai Luo couldn't believe it, but apart from the two of them, there was also the blind old woman of the Zhang family in this courtyard, the old woman was already old, and it was difficult to serve a job, let alone shoot the dead.

Besides, this old woman of the Zhang family has no motive to kill.

Bai Luo had a headache, the facts of this case were very simple and clear, the scene of the murder was closed, and everyone arrested the only two criminals who were present and had a motive to commit the crime on the spot, it was simply an iron case that could be decided without judgment.

But this case is complicated everywhere, and the portraits of the prisoners deduced from the results of the autopsy are contrary to the two murderers who were caught.

Jiang Xin and the others looked at Bai Luo staring directly at Li Tiegen's smashed head, and they all felt panicked

Everyone stood silently aside, not daring to speak, for fear of interrupting the county magistrate's train of thought.

Uncle Miao got up slowly and packed up his suitcase.

The sky slowly darkened, and the waning sunset cast its last golden rays of light on the dilapidated house.

Bai Luo came to his senses, put down the case in his mind, and looked at the people in the room.

She looked at Ding Yi first: "Ding Yi, are you still willing to do a job?" ”

"Yes, yes." Of course Ding Yi is willing, after all, although it makes people avoid it, it is a craft that can be eaten for a lifetime.

"Then you go back and find Chai Hu to get fifty taels of silver, and then give Uncle Miao a hand, as for whether you can learn something, whether you can be Uncle Miao's apprentice, it's up to you. Would you like to? ”

Ding Yi didn't expect that not only would he not be squeezed out of his job by Uncle Miao, but he would be able to learn from Uncle Miao, so he hurriedly nodded, "I am willing, I am willing, my lord, I don't want any silver, just follow Master Miao to learn." ”

"You must come and take the money, or you won't be a fool." Bai Luo said with a straight face, and then ordered: "In a while, you and He Sanhe Si will send the body to Yizhuang for safekeeping." I went to inform the old woman Zhang again that before the case was closed, she was still living at a relative's house. In case the scene needs to be investigated. "Yes, sir." He San, He Si and Ding Yi agreed together.

"The others will follow me back to the county government first."

"Yes." Jiang Xin and others agreed together.

Hua Qian took the first step to drive the carriage to the yamen for settlement.

West Street is not far from the Yamen, Bai Luo took Jiang Xin and others to slowly walk through the flow of people returning home, and walked leisurely towards the Yamen.

Bai Luo didn't walk fast, but his back was straight, and he looked like he was upright and energetic.

And Jiang Xin and a few people walked behind her, surprisingly harmonious, this group of people did not speak, just silently walked in the flow of people, like a self-contained small group, silent and slow marching.

followed Liu Zhiran, who was walking behind, and suddenly found that this Bai Luo seemed to have slowly integrated the people around him into his side recently, although he may not even notice Bai Luo himself, but Liu Zhiran found that even Uncle Miao was slowly beginning to be moved by Bai Luo.

Why did Liu Zhiran say that it was the most recent, not the year she was an official?

Naturally, it was inferred because of Uncle Miao's disdainful and indignant report letter from Cai Weizhou half a month ago.

Liu Zhiran believes that if Uncle Miao's current attitude is used to write this letter, the wording and views will definitely be much milder.

So, at least Uncle Miao's change started after he sent the letter half a month ago, and even after the note from the carrier pigeon.

Calculate, the letter of the carrier pigeon is only a matter of these two days, what happened in these two short two days? Can Miao Yanzuo, who is disgusted with Bai Luo, actually start to change his opinion of him?

It seems that this Bai Luo suddenly has a special personality charm, which makes her people start to change their opinion of her, makes her subordinates start to be loyal and obedient to her, and even makes her enemies start to re-examine her.

This Bai Luo is really not simple!

Liu Zhiran looked at Bai Luo walking in front of him playfully, and his eyes flashed with interest.

In less than half a year, he figured out the laws of officialdom, and in the past few years of doing the history of the Imperial Court in the court, picketing hundreds of officials, he has long been numb to all the people and things in the officialdom, but he didn't expect that in this remote Anning County, he actually began to have a trace of strong curiosity about a small county official.

Hmph, that's kind of interesting! Liu Zhiran snorted coldly in his heart.

The group entered the backyard of the county government, and Bai Luo looked at his small courtyard, fortunately, there were still a few vacant rooms.

She instructed: "Chai Hu, you and Jiang Xin Wang Hai will clean up the empty wing room next to my study and the wing room next to the main room, and help Uncle Miao and Lu Gongzi settle down." ”

"Yes, sir." Jiang Xin Wang Hai promised.

"Yes, young master." Chai Hu promised.

"Thank you, sir." After getting along with Bai Luo for a day, Uncle Miao's attitude towards Bai Luo eased a lot, and he also thanked him.

"Thank you, Lord Bai, for your hospitality." Liu Zhiran is still the appearance of a handsome son, and he is polite.

"You're welcome, everyone is welcome, the sea will make dinner in a while, and the few people who stay in the yamen will all sit down and have a light meal together." Bai Luo said with a smile.

The fat sea is very powerful, and in half an hour's effort, I made a table of meals with fish, meat, color, and fragrance.

It just so happened that Uncle Miao and Liu Zhiran's rooms were also cleaned up, Uncle Miao lived in the main room, and Liu Zhiran lived in the wing room next to the study.

Bai Luo called Chai Hu Fat Dahai and Jiang Xin, Uncle Miao, Liu Zhiran and others to the table, and everyone sat around and had dinner.

After dinner, it was already dark, and the people of Anning County, who had been following the case for a day, and Liu Zhiran and Hua Qian, who had been on the road for a day, were exhausted, everyone stopped gossiping, dispersed early, and went back to their rooms to rest.

Bai Luo was about to undress and wipe his body to rest, but he heard Chai Hu knock on the door, "Young master, I have something to tell you." ”
