It was the time when the sky was about to dawn, and it was possible if Chaoyun did not burn the paper but managed to sneak into the main courtyard and kill people.

"Take this official to the West Cross Courtyard to have a look." Zhen Shicheng glanced at Chaoyun deeply and temporarily stopped interrogating.

A crowd of people flocked to the West Courtyard.

At Zhen Shicheng's request, the maid led everyone to a corner of the courtyard and pointed to the ground: "This is it." ”

Jiang seemed to squeeze in front of him without a trace, and when he looked closely, he saw that there were faint black ashes on the ground, and if it was a day or two, he would definitely not be able to leave even this trace.

Zhen Shicheng stared at the ground thoughtfully.

There seems to be something strange about the ground here—

Thinking so, he walked there, raising his foot and tentatively touching the ground.

A slightly fluffy feeling came.

Zhen Shicheng's expression moved, and he immediately ordered his subordinates: "Dig up here and take a look." ”

A servant immediately stepped forward to excavate.

In addition to the upper layer of floating soil, the soil below was very soft, and the official quickly dug up a burden.

"There's really something!" The crowd erupted in exclamations.

At this moment, everyone stared intently at the dug out package, but Jiang seemed to be looking at Chaoyun with Zhen Shicheng.

A person's first reaction is always the most real.

It's a pity that the two of them are destined to be disappointed, Xu is Chaoyun's heart has been like ashes for a long time, and there is still no expression on his face at this moment, neither nervous nor surprised.

Zhen Shicheng sighed, his eyes met with the eyes of the girl in the green shirt and white dress, and he almost couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.

When he finds major clues, the first time he can do it is not to look at physical evidence but to observe the reaction of the suspect, which is the experience accumulated over the years, and the little girl in front of him is not as old as his son, let alone have any experience, so it can only be talent and understanding.

That's a good seedling.

Zhen Shicheng's heart that cherishes talents itches again.

Master Zhen has a problem, he likes to brush his beard when his heart is itchy, so he brushed it several times in a row, and only came back to his senses after breaking two beards, and his face was hiding the pain and said, "Open it and take a look." ”

"Yes." The official immediately opened the baggage.

These officials were all experienced people, and they were extremely careful when opening their baggage, and soon the contents of the baggage were revealed to everyone.

It was a bloody garment.

The crowd suddenly resounded with the sound of gasps one after another.

Zhen Shicheng took a step forward, squatted down and looked at the bloody clothes.

The material and style of the clothes are very inconspicuous, and the color is suitable for middle-aged women.

Mrs. Yongchangbo was stabbed to death by a candlestick, and the bed was bleeding all over the bed, and it was difficult for the murderer to keep his clothes clean, and this bloody garment was almost certainly the same as the murderer wore when he committed the murder.

Zhen Shicheng stood up and looked at Chaoyun fixedly: "Did you bury this bloody clothes?" ”

Chaoyun was silent.

Zhen Shicheng was very patient, but Yongchangbo couldn't help but be angry: "What else are you asking, it must be the lady killed by this cheap maid!" ”

Chaoyun suddenly looked at Yongchangbo, and his lips, without the slightest blood, trembled violently.

"Uncle, don't be impatient." Zhen Shicheng persuaded.

Yongchangbo pointed at the bloody clothes, and his face was extremely ugly: "What else do you want to say if the evidence is conclusive?" Murder pays for life, not to mention that this committed the murder of his wife...... My lord, this will be handed over to you! ”

Zhen Shicheng looked at Chaoyun who was speechless, and always felt that something was wrong.

Was Mrs. Yongchangbo really killed Chaoyun?

Although Chaoyun had enough motive to kill, and there was a bloody cloth buried in the courtyard as evidence, it was not so simple to kill a large living person with a candlestick.

The woman in front of her was emaciated, and she had a feeling of sickness and weakness that would blow in the wind, and she really had the strength to stab a man to death with a candlestick?

Seeing that Zhen Shicheng did not react, Yongchangbo suddenly pulled out the sword on Xie Yinlou's waist.

Xie Yinlou subconsciously pressed the hilt of the sword.

Yongchangbo didn't pull it out, and shouted: "Let go!" ”

Xie Yinlou didn't react much to his father's words, but looked at Zhen Shicheng.

Yongchangbo was angry: "Stinky boy, you let me go, don't you want to avenge your mother?" ”

Xie Yinlou pressed the hilt of the sword and said calmly: "Of course the son wants to avenge his mother, the premise is to determine the murderer. ”

Yongchangbo was a little angry because he didn't have a son, and turned his head to Zhen Shicheng and said, "Lord Zhen, can't these prove that she is a murderer?" ”

Zhen Shicheng stroked his beard and pondered: "There are still many doubts in this, and human life is at stake, so naturally we can't jump to conclusions." ”

He knew that more than eighty percent of the officials in charge of criminal charges in the Great Zhou Dynasty could close the case based on speculation, and as long as the speculation was reasonable, even if there was no conclusive evidence, the suspected murderer would still be convicted as the murderer.

But he won't.

As long as it is a case he handles, he would rather become an unsolved case due to his ability than close the case by inference alone.

Skynet is magnificent but not leaky, and there is always the possibility of solving unsolved cases, but once a person dies in vain, he will never be able to live.

Behind every person who died, there were countless tears of loved ones.

"What's the doubt?" His wife died unexpectedly, and Tongfang was the biggest suspect, which made it difficult for Yongchangbo to calm down.

"When was the last time you saw Chaoyun?" Zhen Shicheng did not answer Yongchangbo's words, and continued to ask the two maids.

A maid said: "My aunt gave her hot water before going to bed, and it was probably the beginning of the year. ”

This time is in line with Chaoyun's time to fall asleep.

Zhen Shicheng said to Yongchang Bo at this time: "One of the doubts is how Chaoyun sneaked into the main courtyard and hid in the wardrobe of Mrs. Bo's bedroom after the beginning of the year. ”

Yongchangbo was dumbfounded for a while.

At that time, he and his wife had just rested, and they hadn't even fallen asleep, unless Chaoyun was a god, he could avoid his ears and eyes and hide in the closet.

But how to explain this bloody garment? Nine times out of ten, the time when she burned the paper was after Uchiko was killed, and it is likely that she burned the paper to bury the bloody clothes after killing Uchiko. ”

"But I still can't explain how she managed to hide in the closet." Zhen Shicheng reminded in a calm tone.

The most important thing is that it doesn't make sense, no matter how much else it meets, he will not arbitrarily deduct the charge of the real murderer on a person's head.

Yongchangbo thought about it, and suddenly his face changed: "Someone hid in the closet, it has always been just Lord Zhen's speculation, right?" Perhaps the fingerprints in the wardrobe were left by the maid by chance, not by the murderer. ”

Jiang seemed to cough lightly and interjected: "Uncle, someone hid in the closet because of the speculation of the niece, but Lord Zhen just recognized the speculation of the niece. Have you forgotten that it was the discovery of fingerprints at strange angles in the closet that cleared your suspicions—"

Yongchangbo was speechless.

Xie Qingqi silently supported his forehead.

In order to prove that Tongfang is the murderer, he overturned the previous conclusion and successfully re-labeled himself as a murderer, and his father is really amazing......

Yongchangbo's dumb fire made Zhen Shicheng smile at Jiang Ru.

He said, it's still this girl's heart.

At this time, the hearty girl smiled at Zhen Shicheng: "Lord Zhen, I don't think Chaoyun is a murderer. ”
