Chapter 303: The Death of the Shopkeeper (2)
Xiao Ling was not ambiguous at all when she said these words, and Ji Qingyi thought to herself that she would not let the inn do business well if she said this. Those guys stood there, but they didn't dare to step forward, maybe they thought the scene in the kitchen was too scary.
After a while, the guy who went out to report to the official led a team of officials to come over, Ji Qingyi felt that such a small town, I am afraid that there has not been such a big case for a long time, after all, Ji Qingyi is also very curious about this case, as soon as those officials came in, the proprietress pulled Ji Qingyi and walked over and said: "Official, she killed the guy in our store, but I saw it with my own eyes, Xiao Er's body is still lying in the kitchen." ”
Those catchers originally looked like they were hanging, but when they saw the blood on their bodies, they were immediately excited, and the leading catcher raised the catcher knife in his hand, and then waved to the catchers behind him: "Push these people to the yamen." ”
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at a catcher next to him and said, "You, hurry back and report to the master, saying that there is a big case." ”
As he spoke, he turned his head to the catcher on the other side and said, "You, you, a few of you go and block the scene, the kitchen does not allow idlers to wait for the cuts in and out, and go and call the servants to come over." ”
Ji Qingyi's hand was finally liberated, when the proprietress let go of her hand, Ji Qingyi felt that her finger bones were going to break, Xiao Yunyan saw this and was very eager to step forward and push those catchers away, but Xiao Ling stopped her, Xiao Ling said to Xiao Yunyan: "Don't go up now, let's follow behind." ”
Xiao Yunyan stomped his feet twice and said anxiously: "Where are they going to take Ji Qingyi?!" ”
Xiao Ling pursed his lips and said, "I didn't bring anything, let's go with me." ”
Saying that, Xiao Ling glanced back at Qi Lingyun and said, "Do you want to come along?" ”
Qi Lingyun nodded and said lightly, "It's okay." ”
Chu Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows, glanced at Qi Lingyun and followed those catchers, and at the same time, the proprietress was also taken away.
Ji Qingyi actually admires this boss lady, she didn't say that her legs were weak when she saw such a terrifying scene, and she remembered to catch the suspect, this mind still made Ji Qingyi like it very much. Ji Qingyi was stunned for a moment, thinking about when he would come, and thinking about anything else, when he was thinking like this, he tilted his head and looked at those catchers, these catchers were either thin like a stick or fat like a lump of meat, Ji Qingyi thought it was interesting and asked: "You are fast catchers, are they graded?" ”
The catcher who was walking next to Ji Qingyi was startled by Ji Qingyi's sudden voice, and was stunned for a moment and frowned: "Talk!" ”
Ji Qingyi shrugged his shoulders, then turned his face and didn't speak again, and after a while, the catcher suddenly whispered: "We are divided into two kinds of catchers. ”
Ji Qingyi was stunned for a moment, and then turned her head to look at the catcher, but as soon as she turned her head, the blood on her face was too scary, and the catcher said, "Don't look at me." ”
When Ji Qingyi heard this, he immediately turned his head, licked his lips and said: "This is the first type, that is, those who have money, such as those who are related to other people, take some money from the government and come in, and there is another one." ”
Pointing to himself, he continued: "It's someone like me who was admitted with his ability." ”
Ji Qingyi nodded, then thought about it and asked, "Then those of you who look thin and sturdy, are generally admitted?" ”
The catcher said "En", and then sighed and said: "How can you say this kind of thing, we have less money to catch fast, and now more than half of them have been robbed by these individuals." ”
When the catcher said this, his voice was super small, Ji Qingyi glanced at the few catchers walking behind him with a thick waist and a big neck, and then couldn't help laughing.
Seeing this, the catcher looked at Ji Qingyi with some curiosity, and then said: "Anyway, we are the county government, but it's the first time that such a big case has occurred, and I haven't seen you before, are you an outsider?" ”
Ji Qingyi nodded and said, "Well, I'm just passing by, stay in the inn for one night, and I'm going to leave tomorrow." ”
When the catcher heard this, he said, "Then how much enmity can you have with that guy called Xiao Er?" Kill you as soon as you met? ”
Ji Qingyi shrugged his shoulders and said; "I didn't kill anyone."
The guy tilted his head and glanced at Ji Qingyi, and saw that Ji Qingyi was lowering his head, and he couldn't see his expression clearly, but the blood on his face was very scary: "You didn't kill him, so why did the boss lady say that she saw you kill someone?" ”
Ji Qingyi shook his head and said: "At that time, I just wanted to go over and change the red lantern, and then when I went in, the guy was very scared as soon as he turned around, like crazy, and then the proprietress should have heard the sound and came over, it happened that the shopkeeper died of a body explosion, and sprayed my blood, the proprietress didn't see it, she imagined it herself, in fact, I didn't move at all." ”
After Ji Qingyi finished speaking, the catcher looked disbelieving: "He also exploded and died, is it difficult for that little second to have any internal strength, as soon as he doesn't make up his mind, he will explode and die?" ”
Ji Qingyi also knew that this theory was definitely not valid, but this was the case, she didn't lie, and she was also very curious about why that person suddenly exploded and died. Ji Qingyi pursed her lips, and then whispered to the catcher: "Big brother, can I trouble you with something?" ”
Seeing this, the catcher retreated to the side, Yu Ji Qingyi kept his distance, and then frowned and said: "Don't scream nonsense, who is your eldest brother, you can't have a relationship with me because I just said a few words to you, then you have a relationship with me, you are now the murderer, and I am the catcher, this is similar to mice and cats, water and fire are incompatible." ”
Ji Qingyi heard that this catcher was quite level, he should have been a person who had been in school for a few years, and thought for a while: "Brother catcher fast, in fact, this is the case, I am actually also a servant, and I am still very famous in the imperial capital, do you think you can discuss it with the county master and let me check the body?" ”
As soon as Ji Qingyi's voice fell, the catcher looked at Ji Qingyi like a mentally retarded person and said, "You still want to check the corpse?" You have to see where you are now, you are a murderer. ”
Ji Qingyi frowned and said, "I didn't kill anyone!" ”
The arrester didn't believe Ji Qingyi's words very much, but he still paused and said, "Then you are still a suspect, how can you let the suspect go to check the body?" Are you crazy? ”
Ji Qingyi thought to himself, after all, there is nothing to discuss about this matter, after all, Ji Qingyi is now guilty, and it is not like in the palace, except for the matter, Xiao Jin accommodated him to investigate the murderer, Ji Qingyi sighed and didn't say anything more.
The streets on this road can be regarded as very quiet, after all, it is a little strange if there are idlers on the street now, and after a while they walked to the yamen, and Ji Qingyi glanced at the yamen, it is indeed incomparable with the Zongren Mansion in the imperial capital, but this will be the son of the county master has already put on a black gauze hat, and then made it to the front of the main hall.
As soon as Ji Qingyi passed, the county master was obviously stunned for a moment, Xu was frightened by Ji Qingyi's appearance covered in blood, and the one next to him should be called the master bookkeeper, bent down to the county master's ear and whispered something, the county master slapped Tang Mu and said: "Bold and wicked girl, it turned out to be in broad daylight...... Ahem, I dared to kill someone on the territory of the county master, and quickly confessed to the crime! ”
The county lord Xu wanted to say that he dared to kill people in broad daylight, but when he looked at the sky outside, he felt that this word was not appropriate, so he didn't use it anymore, Ji Qingyi wanted to laugh but was lightly kicked by the catcher behind him, and immediately recovered his look, so he smiled and said: "Back to the county master, the people didn't kill anyone." ”
The county magistrate stood up, slapped again, pointed to the proprietress kneeling next to him and said: "The proprietress of the inn said that she saw it with her own eyes, and you dare to quibble!" ”
As soon as this sentence was finished, the proprietress said with a crying voice: "Master, you have to make the decision for us, it's not easy for us to open an inn, Xiao Er is the best guy in our store, usually mild and mild-mannered, it is impossible to have conflicts with others, and these individuals only lived in today, and the folk girl doesn't know what kind of hatred she and Xiao Er have, so she killed him so cruelly!" ”
The county magistrate may have been very annoyed by the crying and crying of the people in the hall, so he frowned and said to the proprietress: "Above the main hall of the yamen, crying like something, tell me what you know quickly." ”
The proprietress choked a few times, then lowered her head and wiped her tears, still with a slight cry and said: "Because it was very late, many of the guests in our inn were resting, and I had just arranged for those guys to tidy up their things, and then I passed by the main hall and prepared to go back to the house to sleep, and I watched her go in." ”
Saying that, he turned around and pointed to Ji Qingyi, and then said: "I watched her carry a lantern into the kitchen, thinking that maybe a guest was hungry at night and wanted to eat supper, and I didn't think much about it and was ready to continue walking, but before I could take two steps, I heard Xiao Er's scream, and the sound scared me, because this Xiao Er is good at everything, but he can't cook, I thought that Xiao Er had turned over something in order to cook for her, and then I walked over to see, who knew that as soon as I passed, I saw a lot of blood spurting out of Xiao Er's body." , and then squirted her all over. ”
Ji Qingyi twitched the corner of his mouth, if you had followed me in at that time, you would have been able to see how Xiao Er in your inn yelled like a psycho and suddenly exploded and died.
