Chapter 32: The Feast of the Hung Gate (1)

"Wang Heng, the official invited you here today for nothing more than one reason. Please don't be restrained, that Zhang Ming has already surrendered to the law, if it wasn't for yesterday, you told me such important information, I wouldn't have located the suspect to Zhang Ming so quickly, and the murder case of this Zhang family would not have been solved so easily.

It's a lot of twists and turns, but I really want to thank you.

So this official made this table of good dishes today, and the two of us don't get drunk and don't go home? ”

Wang Heng, that is, the name of the changer.

Today, while he was asleep at home, he heard someone calling him. The whole night patrol made him a little annoyed.

But as soon as he heard that it was someone from the yamen, he instantly extinguished the fire, and Nuo Nuo asked the reason before he followed the county yali.

Unexpectedly, the man only said that Master Gu wanted to thank him, but he didn't expect to put out such a large table of good dishes to entertain him, and a slight sweat had begun to appear in his palms.

"Wang Heng, you don't have to be nervous. My meaning today is very simple, after all, I am happy to have handled such a big case, so I want to invite you to dinner. Gu Changqing could see Wang Heng's twisted posture and comforted.

Master Gu laughed. Xiaomin just told you what he saw, so he didn't have any credit? Wang Heng looked at Gu Changqing with an unnatural expression and said, in fact, he was very weak in his heart, if he didn't want to see if that Zhang Ming had really confessed to the law as the official said, and was only waiting for the execution, he would not go deep into this yamen's place and the land of Humen for this Gu's thank-you meal.

"No, no, no. I'm not kidding. You know how important a witness's evidence is, if it weren't for the fact that the man in black you described that day was Zhang Ming's appearance, how could I have thought it could be him. Gu Changqing said, "I just didn't expect that there would be such a vicious person in this world?" He even killed his own father and son! ”

Except for the slight sweat in the palms of Wang Heng's hands, the whole person was quite stable at this time.

On that day, after Gu Changqing thought of him and asked him if he had seen a man in black, he suddenly thought that people said that this Zhang Ming would beat his daughter-in-law whenever he drank, so he had an idea, so he said that the man in black was like Zhang Ming, and he was his own substitute ghost, anyway, he drank that night, but it doesn't matter, after drinking, the identity of Zhang Ming's suspect will be more certain.

However, the truth was that he had never seen any men in black at all. That night, under the mirror-like night sky, there was only oneself and those things that would be forgotten with Zhang Ming's confession.

"Wang Heng. I'm very curious, what do you usually use to keep time at night? Is it possible to knock it once, and go back to the house to see it? Gu Changqing asked with interest.

"Nope. We have a room, in the middle of the city. It's all the stuff we use to keep time, and it's usually there? Wang Heng said slowly.

"That's in case of urgency. I haven't watched it for a while, what should I do when the time is over? ”

"This is rarely the case. Normally we don't be so sloppy. After all, this profession has been done for more than ten years, and this will not be bad. ”

"So powerful?" Gu Changqing sighed with emotion, and nodded slightly to him in approval.

"However, there is still something unclear about this official? You said you don't usually report the wrong time, so will there be an accident? Have you had it lately? ”

Wang Heng shook his head, but his heart trembled. That night, after he came out of Zhang's store, he didn't know what time it was, and he was afraid of trembling, so he went straight to the fourth watch. Thinking about it in the middle of the night, who will have nothing to pay attention to

Did he make a mistake in reporting the time? Besides, no one will ask this kind of question.

But. When Gu Changqing said these words slowly, he understood that people can't hold on to luck.

Luck may favor you for a while, but it won't favor you in everything.

"Then how do I remember that on the night of the crime, you reported the time wrong? Obviously less than the fourth watch, why did you hit the gong on the fourth watch? Gu Changqing stretched out his hand and stroked his eyebrows over and over again, in order to upset Wang Heng.

"Oh, I remembered. That night, the timekeeping thing broke, and I only fixed it yesterday. Wang Heng was so nervous that he even changed his voice.

"I see. It's nothing? I thought you did it on purpose! ”

Wang Heng smiled awkwardly.

"That's right. I heard you like to drink? Or the wine from the Lee's tavern at the North City Gate, right? ”

At the time, about the smell of the crime scene. Although Zhan Tian found traces of wine at the scene according to the taste of the wine bought by the officer.

But in order to go deeper, he then sent a lot of people to buy all kinds of wine in the city.

After letting Zhan Tian smell it at the scene of the crime, he pointed out one by one which one was the smell that came out of the scene.

At that time, Zhan Tian was in a row of wine jugs, and only used his mouth to fill the wine he bought from the tavern of the Li family in Beicheng.

And it turns out that the Li family tavern is not close to this Zhang family, and Zhang Ming does not go there to drink.

Yesterday, after Sanniang and Aunt Hua got the answer, he came back, made this series of reasoning and speculation, and finally went to the tavern in Beicheng alone, and only today did he decide to invite Wang Heng.

"Lee's Tavern in North City?" Wang Heng's heart instantly cooled, that night, he was indeed drinking there wine, "I like that taste." But I haven't been going much lately? ”

"But I heard that on the evening of the day of the crime, you drank there and took a bottle on credit at that time, am I right?" Gu Changqing's expression was stern, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed between his eyebrows.

"Yes, yes. I drank so much that I almost forgot about it that day. Wang Heng explained, but he didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at Gu Changqing.

"But we smelled the same thing at the scene of the crime. Have you been there that night? Gu Changqing followed the good path.

Wang Heng shook his head fiercely. He knew that he could not admit this in any case, and once this head was nodding, such a long period of patience would be in vain.

"No?" Gu Changqing pretended to be deep and said, "I wanted to say that if you have been there, you will definitely be able to help me determine the first environmental condition of the site." You can also know if this person is a violent murder that came out of nowhere? ”

"Violent killing?" Wang Heng followed Gu Changqing and muttered, and then asked hesitantly, "What is violent murder?" ”

"Violent killing. It means that this murder was not premeditated by him for a long time, but suddenly arose. Or because he was insulted and discriminated against, or because he robbed money and sex, in short, this person has no deep connection with the deceased in this case? ”

Gu Changqing raised his eyes and looked at Wang Heng fixedly, "What, do you understand?" ”

Wang Heng nodded, but his legs were almost weak. Fortunately, I was supported by myself.

"Wang Heng, do you know that Zhang Ming's wife is pregnant? Hurting an unborn child will be struck by lightning?! ”
