After the old man was mad, he sat down on the ground in a dejected manner. Zhang Ming buried his head deep between his legs, silently shedding tears.

"Zhang Ming, this official asked you. Where did you spend the night last night? ”

"In Jixiang Town."

"But you've drunk?"

"Nope."

"Are you sure?"

"I really didn't drink it."

"Built, send someone to Jixiang to check and see if what he said is true?" Gu Changqing explained, and then asked Zhang Ming, "Do you want to go and see them?" ”

Zhang Ming raised his head suddenly, hard, hard, heavy, and lowered his head little by little.

Zhang Ming was taken to the place where the body was stored, Gu Changqing did not follow directly, but secretly listened under the window afterwards.

A person's true face can be pretended in front of outsiders, but when there is no one, he will release his truest side.

Therefore, Gu Changqing deliberately explained the depression of the person who took Zhang Ming to go, told him that Zhang Ming would lock the door after entering, and told Zhang Ming that he had half an hour, and he would come and take him away after half an hour.

In this way, first let Zhang Ming relax his vigilance, so that he thinks that there is only himself here, so that he will become himself to the greatest extent.

But Gu Changqing listened to him under the window for half an hour, but Zhang Ming rarely spoke, sometimes crying silently, and sometimes sorting out a few corpses.

Finally, he took the child's body in his arms, kissed it gently, and began to sing a lullaby.

Half an hour later, someone opened the door, Gu Changqing walked in, and said with a heavy voice, "Your wife, pregnant." ”

"I know." Zhang Ming spit out these two words stiffly, "When I was in Fenghuang County, my wife asked someone to send me a letter and said it. ”

"Alright." Gu Changqing stretched out his hand and made a gesture to pull him up, "It's time, you should go back." Because you have a history of beating Zhao Xinyao, you are still the first suspect in this case.

However, if you want the real murderer to be punished, you have to tell the truth, have you ever had a grudge against you, whether in business or at any time? ”

Zhang Ming shook his head, "Master Gu, although I like to drink some wine, I have never had a grudge against anyone. I beat Xinyao only because I was angry, and I felt that I was incompetent in my life. Open a small shop, although our father doesn't know, but I know that he is not making money at all, especially after giving birth to a child, life is even more difficult, I want to divorce her, so that she can remarry, find a good family, and no longer have to take risks with me.

But I usually can't do it, only to hit the wine gall. But slowly, I found that it had become a habit. I didn't want to beat her anymore, but every time I was wronged outside and drank alcohol, I felt like I was in a bag, and I couldn't control myself and wanted to get angry. But I'm not going to kill her, am I? ”

"Then do you have a concubine outside?"

Zhang Ming shook his head again, "No." I like Xinyao, and I can't like anyone else again in my life. ”

----------------------

Two days later, Gu Changqing's study, Yanmu, was built, Huang Wu.

Several people gathered together and began a comprehensive trial of the case.

Gu Changqing took a deep breath and looked at the little official who was sorting out the case file, and couldn't bear it

Suzu sighed.

In the county government of Yong'an City, there is not even a county government yet, and I don't know what the county government experienced back then, so it was all changed overnight, or it was full of negligent blood exchange.

And since he came here, he hasn't had any leisure, so he doesn't care too much about this vacancy in the county, after all, this is an important position, and he can't just press a person.

If that person can't really do things for the people, then it's better to vacate directly. The corpse vegetarian meal is better than being vacant directly.

"Built, you say first."

"Yes, my lord, that day, after Zhang Ming was arrested, I went straight to Jixiang Town and went to the inn where Zhang Ming said he rested, and the boss said that Zhang Ming had indeed been there all along, and he had never gone out. The rest of the junior also said that they were open until late, and that Zhang Ming never went out. In terms of timing, I also got it right. According to the time of the crime and the last time Zhang Ming met someone in that inn, not counting the time he rested upstairs alone, it was impossible for him to return here and kill someone. Unless.... Unless he's like that person. ”

The person Jiancheng said was Ye Fu, and every time he mentioned him, Jiancheng couldn't help but tremble.

With this proof, Zhang Ming can rule out two percent of the suspicions.

Then, Huang Wu began, "My lord, that day, after catching Zhang Ming, I didn't come back with Jiancheng, but went directly to Fenghuang County. Later, after receiving Zhan Tian's flying book, I inquired about it all. Zhang Ming did stay there for a while, and never came back halfway. According to the calculation of time, he only started to leave and return the day before we met him. ”

Gu Changqing nodded, from Phoenix to Jixiang in one day, and from Jixiang to Yong'an City in half a day, this is indeed the itinerary of an ordinary horse, and when calculated, Zhang Ming did not have time to commit crimes.

Jiancheng and Huang Wu went to ride the sweat and blood horse rewarded by the emperor at that time, and their feet were flying, and it took nearly two days to go back and forth, unless it was like Jiancheng said, Zhang Ming was like Ye Fu, and he could come back.

In the end, it was Yan Mu's turn to be drowsy, Yan Mu squinted his eyes and just said, "I have investigated all the hometowns of those two old men, as you can imagine, they are honestly scary." ”

"What's a scary method?"

"Farming diligently, selling things honestly, loving neighbors, not fighting and not scolding, and even feeding homeless people, is this such a person?"

Gu Changqing nodded, after such an investigation, Zhang Ming's suspicion has begun to drop significantly, but it cannot be said that he has no suspicion at all, perhaps, they have left something behind.

However, this also makes it more certain that the murderer was not premeditated, but suddenly murderous.

And such a case is the most difficult to deduce.

Yong'an City has a population of hundreds of thousands, and there are not only these people who come and go, but also businessmen from various countries, so now, even if it is difficult, they have to start investigating who they have been in contact with recently.

"What, is there anything else? I'm going to die of exhaustion. Yan Mu muttered, and he could even feel his eyelids fighting.

"I ask you. Actually, you should have been back last night? Where are you going? Looking at Yan Mu's back, Gu Changqing asked.

Yan Mu pursed his lips, so he wouldn't tell him that he was going to find Yan Huailiu.

After a few people left, Gu Changqing thought that he could be quiet for a while, these days, his sleep was very light, as if after falling asleep, he was dreaming about those people.

"Master Gu, can I come in?"

Sanniang's voice faintly came from outside the door.
