The county magistrate frowned, and said in a calm old voice: "Exploded and died?"

The proprietress hurriedly nodded and said, "It's just an explosion and death, Lord Qingtian, you have to be the master for us."

The county magistrate looked up at the catcher next to Ji Qingyi now and said, "Where is the corpse now?"

The catcher hurriedly took two steps forward and said, "The one in the back is probably going to be carried over at this time."

The county magistrate nodded, and then said, "What about the work?" Didn't call me. ”

The catcher was quick and busy: "I've already let people call it."

The county magistrate helped his forehead, and it is estimated that it is a little bad to believe it, after all, such a big town, there has not been such a big case in Bai'er for ten years, and he also said that he exploded and died, it sounds so evil, as soon as he said it.

The county master was thinking about it, and when he saw Ji Qingyi still standing there, he frowned, and said in shock: "Bold!"

Ji Qingyi was so frightened by this that she chuckled in her heart, and was stunned: "What's wrong?"

Seeing that Ji Qingyi was so fearless, and asked what was wrong so normally, the county master was naturally very unhappy: "What's wrong?" In full view of the public court, you can have a little awe of these four high hall mirrors above the head of the county master! ”

Ji Qingyi was stunned by what the county master said, and wondered when he lost his awe of the four words above his head? Anyway, those four words were not meant for her, Ji Qingyi smiled very embarrassedly, and then said to the county lord with a straight face: "The folk girl doesn't know what the master means."

The county magistrate immediately pulled down his face when he heard this, and slapped the table vigorously and said, "Come to the court, don't you know how to kneel?"

Ji Qingyi frowned, and said lightly: "Why do the people kneel?"

As if he had heard a big joke, the county magistrate slapped the shocked wood and said loudly: "Above the court, as a people's girl, you naturally have to kneel, this is the rule!"

Ji Qingyi raised his eyebrows, and did not make any other moves because of the words of the county master, the county master was even more angry when he saw this, and he was about to sit up, but Ji Qingyi looked at the county master holding the chair up and down twice and got up, and the master book next to him was writing down the confession on the side, and Ji Qingyi was embarrassed when he looked at it, and the county master was not ready to go down when he saw this, and he picked up the token on the table and was about to throw it at Ji Qingyi's feet, and Ji Qingyi naturally knew, The tokens thrown over by the county master must be these tokens with chopping characters, and I have seen a lot of them like this.

Before the county master's token was thrown out, he saw the corpse being carried in, and there was an old servant who came in with him.

Ji Qingyi looked at the corpse of the shopkeeper who had been covered with a white cloth, but the red blood could still be seen on the white cloth, so you can imagine how much blood spurted out of the shopkeeper's body.

With the one who came with the corpse, there were also Chu Xiaoyao and Xiao Yunyan. The county master didn't care about Chu Xiaoyao and them, but beckoned to a catcher, the catcher who was closest to him walked over, and then stepped forward to help the county master, the first time it was estimated that it was because he was too fat, and the first time he hadn't helped up this county master who was very round, Ji Qingyi could feel the inexplicable embarrassment, and the ministry sent Qingyi didn't show any different expressions, after all, if he didn't hold back laughing, the county master would definitely find his own business again.

When the county master finally stood up for the third time, he was very angry and flicked his sleeves, and the catcher quickly pushed it back, and the county master lame, walked to the side of the corpse, and the county master shook it, and then squatted down to look at the corpse, and now the white cloth on the corpse has not been lifted, Ji Qingyi tilted his head to look at the puppet, fifty or sixty, it looks very lean.

The man lifted the white cloth on the corpse, and when the white cloth was lifted, Ji Qingyi saw that the blood on the head of the shopkeeper had congealed into lumps.

The man was stunned for a moment when he saw this, and then lifted the entire white cloth, and the county lord who was standing on the side frowned and took a step back.

To tell the truth, this work has been useless for many years, because there are usually no big cases, and small cases are not needed, and there is no suicide or accidental death in a small town for a year, so this old man may be a little cowardly in his heart now.

He looked at the body repeatedly for a long time, then stood up and said, "The deceased may have died of poisoning."

As soon as he said this, Ji Qingyi raised his eyebrows, and the man continued: "The deceased's body was broken and a lot of blood was shed, and there were a lot of blood clots on the top of his head, and that blood clot was probably there before he died."

As soon as this sentence came out, Ji Qingyi's brows furrowed, and the county master stepped forward to his chair when he saw these two steps, and then stared at Ji Qingyi and said, "What else do you have to say?"

Ji Qingyi didn't react to what was going on, she still thought that this work could help her something, but what Ji Qingyi didn't expect was that this work was so ineffective.

Ji Qingyi glanced at the corpse, then turned back to the county master and said lightly: "The folk girl has a reluctant request."

As soon as Ji Qingyi's words fell, the county master said: "Since it's all a reluctant invitation, what else do you say!"

Ji Qingyi was choked up, thinking that he couldn't be polite? Thinking like this, Ji Qingyi pursed her lips and said, "Minnu, please go and check the corpse."

The county magistrate stared at Ji Qingyi in surprise, and said for a while: "You still want to examine the corpse?" You still talk about how to kill this shopkeeper, talk about what grudges you have with this shopkeeper, and talk about the motive and method of committing the crime. ”

Xiao Ling on the side couldn't help frowning, turned his head and whispered to Chu Xiaoyao: "This county master is an idiot, right?" How did he become the county magistrate? If Ji Qingyi is really the murderer, can he still let him recruit him? You can't look into the case yourself, do you? ”

As soon as Xiao Ling finished speaking, Chu Xiaoyao hadn't spoken, Qi Lingyun on the side chuckled, Xiao Yunyan tilted her head and glanced at Qi Lingyun, although she had never seen Qi Lingyun, but she had seen the kind of clothes Qi Lingyun was wearing, so she thought of the envoy of the Western Regions that she said before, and naturally thought about who Qi Lingyun was. Xiao Ling was stunned for a moment, and said to Qi Lingyun, "What are you laughing at?"

Qi Lingyun pursed his lips and said lightly: "What kind of case can there be in this town, and it can be trivial and trivial, but suddenly there is such a big case, and the people in the government are naturally inexperienced."

As soon as he finished saying this, several people heard him say: "I didn't kill anyone, I didn't kill this shopkeeper."

As soon as this sentence came out, the county master "hissed", propped up the table with both hands, hooked his head and looked at Ji Qingyi and said, "Why do you say that you are still dead and don't admit it, look at it."

As he spoke, he pointed at Ji Qingyi and gestured from top to bottom, and then said: "Look at the blood you are covered in, the human and material evidence at the scene is all there, and you still say that you didn't kill anyone!"

Ji Qingyi looked at the county master, and said to the county master with a very serious expression: "County master, this murder requires a motive, what do you say I have nothing to do with killing a shopkeeper?"

The county magistrate was immediately asked by Ji Qingyi, and after pausing for a few seconds, the county magistrate said: "Maybe you are not mentally normal."

Ji Qingyi felt that a question mark was about to appear on her face, what did she call her mentally abnormal? Is she finally going to move into the ranks of psychopaths??

Ji Qingyi looked at the county master and said: "When the folk girl went out of the inn with her friends, the shopkeeper borrowed a lantern from us, and then when we returned to the inn from outside, I thought about returning the lantern to the shopkeeper, but as soon as I entered, the shopkeeper had his back to me, and he was putting firewood in the stove......"

"What are you doing out in the middle of the night? Who to go out with? Before Ji Qingyi finished speaking, he was interrupted by the county master, Ji Qingyi thought about it, and when he was about to speak, Xiao Ling pulled Qi Lingyun over, and when the county master saw someone breaking into the court, he naturally couldn't sit still, and wanted to stand up and say things, but he didn't get up twice, and Ji Qingyi really doubted that this person could live a normal life by himself.

Because he didn't stand up, the county master couldn't stop Xiao Ling and Qi Lingyun, after Xiao Ling walked over, he raised his chin, looked at the county master with contempt and said, "I accompanied her out at night."

As he spoke, he pointed at Qi Lingyun and said, "I went out to find him."

Seeing this, the county master looked at Qi Lingyun, Qi Lingyun nodded at the county master, the county master sat up straight, pointed at Xiao Ling and Qi Lingyun and said, "You two can testify for Ji Qingyi?"

Xiao Ling nodded.

The county master said again: "When the shopkeeper died, were you two at the scene?"

Xiao Ling was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then shook his head.

The county magistrate patted his thigh and said: "Isn't this okay, you are still in a group, and you will definitely help Ji Qingyi speak, and you were not there when the shopkeeper died, so your testimony can't be counted."

As soon as the county master's voice fell, Xiao Ling couldn't help it, stared at the county master and said, "What do you mean that we are a group, then this boss lady and the deceased are still in a group, why don't you say that they did this to frame us?"

The county master slapped the table again and said, "Aren't you talking nonsense?" What did the proprietress frame you for? ”

As soon as the county master's voice fell, Xiao Ling rolled his eyes.
