Chapter 127: Skynet Restored
Changxing Hou was struck by lightning, and it took a while for him to come to his senses and strode forward: "Lord Zhen, this, what's going on?" โ
Zhen Shicheng wiped his hands with a handkerchief, with a serious expression: "Master Hou, let's wait until we are done." โ
"This, thisโ" Changxing Hou Khan rained down, and countless thoughts passed through his heart.
He wasn't stupid, his son's performance just now seemed to be too nervous, as if he had known that a body would be dug up here-
Could it be said that a man was killed by his son?
Mrs. Changxinghou had already heard the movement and rushed over, and the moment she saw the corpse, her eyes rolled and she fainted.
The maid who came with her was so frightened that the six gods were gone, and there was chaos in the garden.
Jiang Qian hid in it, her face as white as a ghost.
She knew that pervert had killed so many people, and sooner or later she wouldn't be able to hide it!
She subconsciously looked at Hou Shizi of Changxing, but saw that Hou Shizi of Changxing looked at her with a calm face, his eyes were like a cold pool, with a strong warning.
Jiang Qian hurriedly looked away.
Changxing Hou Shizi hooked the corners of his lips.
This stupid woman didn't help him cover up, thinking that she could run away if something happened to him?
Next to the flowers, Jiang Qiao gently touched Jiang Xiang: "Fourth sisterโโ"
"What's wrong?" Jiang seemed to look at Jiang Qiao.
Jiang Qiao's lips turned pale: "That corpseโ"
She felt that it was inappropriate, and shook her head again: "Forget it, let's talk about it when we leave this place of right and wrong." โ
At this time, although many noblewomen thought so, but in horror, no one offered to leave.
When a horrible thing is confronted in broad daylight, the horror seems to give way to curiosity.
Another body was exhumed.
Zhen Shicheng was silent for a moment, and then ordered a subordinate: "Go to the yamen and call someone!" โ
said that he was going to the Yamen to call someone, Zhen Shicheng had already arranged eyeliner outside the Changxing Hou Mansion, once the body was really found in the Hou Mansion, as long as the subordinates left the mansion, they would immediately go back to call for manpower, and the prevention was that the dog of the Changxing Hou Mansion jumped over the wall in a hurry.
Fortunately, he caught up with the Changxing Hou Mansion to hold a flower appreciation banquet today, and the Hou Mansion would not dare to stop him unless he wiped out all these noble women.
"Lord Zhen-" When encountering this kind of thing, Changxinghou no longer knew what to say.
He wanted to stop it but had no reason, but if he didn't stop it and make things bigger, the reputation of the Hou Mansion would be ruined.
"Master Hou, now that there is a murder, it is still two lives, you still cooperate with the official to find out the truth." Zhen Shicheng stood with his hands in his hands and said lightly.
The two subordinates who dug the pit held flower shovels and waited for Zhen Shicheng's next order.
At this moment, the big dog suddenly came out and continued to dig the deep pit that he had dug.
Zhen Shicheng's heart moved, and he immediately said: "Keep digging!" โ
"Yes!" The two subordinates picked up the flower shovel and continued to excavate, and after a short time, they were already sweating profusely.
"Master Hou asked his subordinates to bring a few flower hoes, hoes are better than flower shovels."
Changxinghou's expression changed several times, and finally nodded.
The diggers changed their hoes, and sure enough, they sped up.
A short time later, a body was dug up.
It is said that it is a corpse, but in fact, white bones have been seen, and flesh is still hanging on the bones.
Then another body was exhumed.
It was so quiet that everyone forgot to breathe, and when they watched the corpses being dug up, they felt a chill all over their bodies.
The officials of Shuntianfu have arrived to replace the two subordinates to continue the excavation.
Large patches of peony flowers had long been dug up to pieces, and the smell permeated the garden.
Those noble ladies who were still thinking about watching the excitement had already been frightened, and some people were frightened and fainted and were sent back to the house by the maids who came with them, but there were also a few bold noblewomen with white faces who planned to wait for a result.
With so many corpses, who the hell killed them!
It's the Hou Shizi of Changxing, right?
There is always a shortage of smart girls in the world, and the girl with a calm expression looked at the Hou Shizi of Changxing from afar.
Even if there was no evidence, she felt that this person was the murderer.
Soon it was noon, and the diggers had rotated several times, but the hoe had not stopped.
Finally, after tossing and turning in the dirt and finding nothing again, several of the officials straightened up.
One, two, three......
Ten corpses lay on the ground, and the bones that were dug up later were already shattered, and only the skull with a deep hole made it known that this was once a living person, perhaps a bright woman.
Zhen Shicheng was silent.
He knows that people are evil, but the facts often break through people's imagination.
Ten corpses, ten victims.
If it weren't for the bizarre and absurd daughters of Xiu Niangzi and Chi Yuanwai, if it weren't for the idea that he would rather believe that he had something to believe or not, would these people never see the light of day and become fertilizer to nourish the peony flower.
The whole garden seemed to hear only the sound of busyness, and everyone was silent.
Changxinghou couldn't hold it back, and finally broke the silence.
"Lord Zhen, Ben Hou really doesn't know, you must believe me-"
Zhen Shicheng smiled: "I believe that Hou Ye doesn't know, but everything depends on the evidence." โ
"It must have been some bold man who did the evil!" Changxinghou said urgently.
"Master Hou, the official has already said that the murderer depends on the evidence."
"Evidence?" Changxinghou's eyes narrowed, "People are already like this, how can there be evidence?" If no evidence can be found, Lord Zhen should not suspect the masters of the Hou Mansion, right? โ
Zhen Shicheng smiled slightly: "Master Hou doesn't need to worry, this official has handled the case for many years, and he has not handled a single unjust case." This official has always believed that as long as the things are done, there will always be traces, and even if the murderer is careful, the victim will tell us something. โ
"What? Dead people can talk? Zhen Shicheng's novel remarks made many people forget their fears for a while and couldn't help but talk about it.
"Of course the dead can speak, but only those who really want to avenge them can read it!" Zhen Shicheng strode over to the corpses and reminded him, "Check the freshest corpse first!" โ
He hurriedly gave up the work of checking the cause of death of all the corpses, and ran to carefully examine the corpses that had been dug up first.
The smell of this corpse was also the most unbearable.
But the work was not affected in the slightest, dutifully starting from the hair and checking downward.
Jiang seemed to be standing not far away and watching coldly, and quietly clenched his hands.
The jade button in the female corpse's hand will be found, right?
When he finally checked the hand of the female corpse, he saw that one of his hands was clenched, and he hurriedly opened the clenched hand out of experience, and then his eyes lit up.
"My lord, there is a discovery!" He shouted excitedly.
"What did you find?"
He spread out his hand, and there was a button lying in the palm of his hand.
It was an emerald bat-patterned button, glowing with an expensive glow in the sun.
Such a button is not what the Hou Mansion should have.
Zhen Shicheng stared at the button, and suddenly tugged at the corner of his lips.
Such a button he had just seen!
Zhen Shicheng slowly looked at the Hou Shizi of Changxing.
Changxing Hou Shizi subconsciously covered his clothes.
