The prison of the Criminal Department.

Chasemen was sent to the Criminal Department, interrogated, and the ghost mask on his face was also asked to be removed.

Beneath the mask, there was a hideous face, a centipede-like scar that stretched from its forehead across the right side of its face, looking terrifying.

At first glance, he is the kind of person who will play with people.

Even in the face of the officials of the Criminal Department, in the face of Si Mo, the pursuit of life was always expressionless, and his eyes were cold.

Tang Renhua, the secretary of the Criminal Department, personally interrogated and was shocked, "Who is in the hall?" ”

"Chase for your life."

"What identity? Where did it come from? ”

"The descendants of the third lady of the Nie Mansion are from the Nie Mansion."

"Do you have a membership card?"

"Nope."

"When did you follow Miss Nie Fusan?"

"Three years ago."

"What was it before?"

"People in the rivers and lakes."

"Where is the ancestral home?"

"I am an orphan, I have no father or mother since I was a child, I have been adrift since I was a child, and I don't know where I was born."

"That is, you have not had a license since you were born?"

"Yes!"

"Follow Miss Nie San, what do you usually do?"

"Protection, occasional street shopping."

"Where were you on the afternoon of August 16?"

"Bazaar, secretly protect Miss."

"Did anything out of the ordinary happen?"

"Yes, Miss has met a few gangsters."

"The result?"

"The subordinate protects the young lady and escapes."

"You're protecting it alone?"

There was a brief silence for the chase, and from the moment he was caught, he knew that he could not escape the interrogation.

Many people saw what happened in the market that day, and it was the people who came to harm the young lady who were sent by the king.

As long as Wang randomly found "ordinary people" to act as "witnesses", he could prove that he was not the only one who saved Miss at that time.

But if he said that there was more than one person, the government would definitely let him explain to the others.

"It was the little one who saved the young lady."

"Nonsense!" Tang Renhua shouted angrily, "The matter of that afternoon has been investigated clearly, Miss Nie San encountered a gangster, and a man wearing a ghost mask came to the rescue with a few masters!"

That ghost-faced man is you, right? Who did you bring to save Miss Nie San? ”

"My lord, it was the little one who saved the young lady, and there is no connection between the small one who saved the young lady and the assassination of His Royal Highness."

Tang Renhua: "His Royal Highness was assassinated, and the murderer was a master of martial arts, and he is still at large.

This official has the right to question your identity, and has the right to ask what you have done with Miss Nie San.

You lied!

According to the results of this official's investigation, the people who assassinated Miss Nie San at that time were all covered with their faces, and the people who saved Miss Nie San, except for you who was wearing a ghost mask, the rest of the people also covered their faces.

The person who assassinated Miss Nie San couldn't see the light, it was normal to cover his face, but the person who saved people also covered his face, which couldn't be said.

Tell me, who were your companions who rescued Miss Nie San at that time? ”

Chasing: "My lord, there was only one young person who saved the young lady at that time." ”

Tang Renhua's face was stern, "It seems that he refuses to tell the truth!" Come! Pull it down, torture! ”

“……”

The chase was taken away.

Si Mo has been watching the trial from the sidelines, from beginning to end, without saying a word.

"Wang, the prison of the Criminal Department is already full of people, do we still want to continue to arrest people?" Tang Renhua asked.

Si Mo's face was expressionless, "Naturally, I will continue to arrest, and the household department will step up the investigation to confirm that it is an innocent person, and quickly confirm the identity and let the people go home." ”

The Hubu Shangshu sitting on the side said that he had not rested for several days, and the officials of the Hubu also rested for one or two hours every day, and his body was really unbearable.

I felt bitter, but I couldn't say, "The lower officials will arrange it as soon as possible." ”

"There are too many people who don't have a registration card, and for the elderly, weak, women and children, you can first ask them to fill in their names and addresses, let them go home, and then you can make further arrangements." Si Mo said in a deep voice.

This time I strictly investigated, only to know that many people have no identity and are also very depressed in life.

Without a registration card, even when the imperial court opened a warehouse for relief, they would not be able to receive rice and grain.

"The lower officials will arrange it as soon as possible."

Tang Renhua and Hubu Shangshu should be at the same time.

Si Mo snorted and asked, "What happened to the killers who were caught, after they were tortured?" Can there be a confession? ”

Tang Renhua's face was serious, "I used torture, plus the poison given by Mr. Ke, and after being tortured, there were two confessions."

They are the killers of the Tiansha Pavilion, the killer organization on the rivers and lakes, and they were hired by the third lady of the Nie family to assassinate His Royal Highness.

Xia Guan has not yet summoned the third lady of the Nie family to the court for questioning, and it is impossible to determine whether the killer is telling the truth for the time being.

As for those who refused to say anything, the lower officials let people use the medicine given by Mr. Ke, and they were going to interrogate them again tonight. ”

Si Mo nodded, he had caught so many people, this time, he wanted to see how Nie Ruyi could get away with it.

Tang Renhua continued, "The three dead soldiers who were caught before refused to confess at first, and then used Mr. Ke's medicine, and then kept them in the water prison and ignored them.

Today, the lower official asked him to be arraigned, and he finally confessed, and the person behind it ......"

Tang Renhua's expression was complicated, "Those three people who claimed to be the eldest princess were brought into Shengjing by the eldest princess, but they said that they did not commit any crimes, and the eldest princess did not let them assassinate Her Royal Highness."

The three people had not eaten for many days, because they confessed, and the lower officials asked them to send them an antidote to detoxify, and then brought them food, and as a result, they bit their tongues and committed suicide as soon as they had the strength to do so.

All the dead soldiers who were caught were dead, and the matter involved the eldest princess, and the lower officials didn't know what to do. ”

Si Mo's face was ugly, his eyes were cold, the dead man turned out to be the imperial aunt's person, is it possible, the dead soldier who assassinated Huo Yubai before was also the imperial aunt's person? It's not impossible.

"Don't divulge the matter of the dead soldiers, this king will secretly investigate. As for those killers, since someone confessed to Nie Ruyi, he stepped up the time to summon Nie Ruyi for interrogation. ”

"Xiaguan understands." Tang Renhua said.

“……”

"Lord Wang, my lord, Lord Taifu is asking to see you outside." The guards came to pay their respects.

Si Mo's eyes darkened slightly, "Xuan!" ”

“……”

Nie Jun followed the guards and saluted respectfully, "The lower official sees the king!" ”

"Master Taifu is here, what is the so-called matter?" Si Mo asked in a deep voice.

"Back to the king, the pursuit of the lower official's mansion was arrested, and the lower official wanted to know the king's criteria for arresting people, and he was worried that he would be injured by mistake. After all, the assassination of His Royal Highness may not be innocent people without a registration card, but also a person with a registration card. Nie Jun said.

Si Mo's deep eyes stared at him, and his face was grim, "Taifu, is this questioning this king?" ”

"The lower officials don't dare, it's just that the prince arrests people on such a large scale, it is easy to accidentally injure innocent people, causing the people to complain."
