Chen Jinbao was very surprised when he looked at Ling Xianjie, who was walking downstairs quickly, and hurriedly caught up. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"My lord, did you find any clues?"

Ling Xianjie glanced back at Chen Jinbao and said, "It can be said that I found it, or I didn't find it." ”

Chen Jinbao scratched the back of his head, a little unsure of what Ling Xianjie meant. The two walked out of the inn, Chen Jinbao closed the door of the inn and re-attached the seal, at this time Ling Xianjie's footsteps were getting faster and faster, and the direction he was walking was back to the yamen.

Chen Jinbao hurriedly caught up and asked, "My lord, the lower officials don't understand what you mean?" ”

Ling Xianjie walked forward by himself, as if he didn't want to answer Chen Jinbao's words, but this aroused Chen Jinbao's curiosity, because looking at his appearance, he should have found something.

"My lord, isn't it convenient to reveal it to your subordinates?"

Ling Xianjie turned around and smiled at Chen Jinbao, and then said, "Chen Zhutou guess what I found?" ”

Chen Jinbao was very unhappy in his heart, why did this person love to hang people's appetite so much?

"My lord, the three possibilities you mentioned may find one of the corresponding clues, how can the lower officials guess it."

Ling Xianjie turned his head and smiled at Chen Jinbao, and then said, "Chen Zhutou will boldly guess, and if you guess wrong, the official will not punish you." Besides, the official also wants to know if you have found anything in the second room of the earth. ”

Chen Jinbao really wanted to bite Ling Xianjie with all his milk, is there such a person who has such an appetite? How difficult it is for those people who follow you in Dali Temple!

Chen Jinbao suppressed his emotions for a moment, and then replied to Ling Xianjie: "My lord, Xia Guan is incompetent and has not found any clues, let alone what can be a clue." But Xia Guan thought of one thing. ”

"Oh?"

Ling Xianjie turned his head and asked, "Then tell me what you have in mind?" ”

Chen Jinbao replied: "It's the testimony of the innkeeper and Jiang Han, if the testimony of these two people has not been matched in advance, then what they both said is correct, and they should tell the truth." But the guy has a testimony that doesn't go right. ”

Ling Xianjie stopped, turned around and asked, "Then what testimony do you say is not right?" ”

"That's what the guy said, the part where he saw someone dressed like the deceased coming down. He claimed that the shopkeeper also saw it, but we didn't ask the shopkeeper whether it was true or not. In other words, he is the only one who says this about this. ”

Ling Xianjie nodded after hearing this, turned behind Chen Jinbao with his hands behind his back, and asked, "It's a bit impressive, you have impressed the official." ”

When Chen Jinbao heard this, he immediately became proud.

"My lord, the master taught that when the thinking can't connect to the clues no matter what, you have to change your thinking. When a clue can't get a reasonable answer from any angle, you have to use your thoughts to lead to a clue. ”

Ling Xianjie smiled and patted Chen Jinbao's shoulder, and then walked forward quickly.

.............

As soon as the two arrived at the gate of the yamen, Wang Fugui immediately ran over.

"Lord Ling, master, all the small things you ordered have been done."

Ling Xianjie nodded.

"Let's go, go to the prison, talk as you go."

The three of them walked to the prison, and Wang Fugui followed behind the two.

"First of all, the little one went to ask Liu Yuanwai's house, Liu Yuanwai said that the kid had quit his job and walked for a few days, and the specific time of leaving was after eating on the seventh day of the new year, and left at about three o'clock in the afternoon (eleven o'clock in the morning), and the little one also heard from other family members that the deceased's letters were a little frequent......."

"Wait a minute!" Ling Xianjie stood up and shouted.

"Did you find those letters?"

Wang Fugui frowned, and said to Ling Xian's masterpiece: "The little one didn't find it, the little one went to ask the other deceased if they had said anything about these letters. The family said that the deceased said that it was a family letter, saying that the old lady in the family was sick and asked him to go back quickly to fulfill his filial piety. ”

Ling Xianjie nodded, walked forward again, and said, "Go on, you're still finding something." ”

Wang Fugui continued: "Then the little one took the short sword and compared it with the wound on the deceased's body, and the size of the wound was a little wrong no matter how it was, and the wound was probably made with a knife or something, and the knife was finally inserted and destroyed the size of the wound." Now the prison is still under trial, and it is estimated that it will be over soon. ”

After listening to Wang Fugui's report, Ling Xianjie nodded.

"Adult, master, the little one just integrated the clues of the case, it seems that there was a problem at that time, right?"

"Yes." Chen Jinbao replied.

Wang Fugui pursed his lips and continued: "The little one just now was still listening in the torture room for a while. The white-clothed living treasure, oh no, the girl bit to death and said that she stabbed someone at noon, and the guy bit to death and said that the deceased had come at noon, and they didn't look like they were lying. ”

Ling Xianjie didn't want to listen to this kind of useless testimony, he turned his head to stare at Wang Fugui and asked, "Did the shopkeeper say that he saw the deceased at noon?" ”

Wang Fugui raised his head and thought for a while, and replied: "When the little one was in the torture room, he hadn't tried the shopkeeper yet. ”

"So who is being tried now?" Ling Xianjie asked again.

Wang Fugui shook his head: "The little one is not clear, the little one listened for a while and then waited at the yamen." ”

.............

The three of them rushed to the torture room together, and as soon as they pushed the door in, they saw the fat and fat shopkeeper tied to the shelf, and by looking at the expression on his face, he could feel that he might have been greatly wronged.

"Your Excellency!"

The two people from Dali Temple stood up and shook at Ling Xian's masterpiece.

"You tortured him?" Ling Xianjie asked again.

"There is no adult, Xia Guan has just been asking him, and he seems to be a little unbearable."

Ling Xianjie looked at the old tearful shopkeeper tied to the shelf, and asked: "Shopkeeper, the official only asks you one thing, the guy at your inn said that the deceased came to the inn at noon on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, did you see him?" ”

The shopkeeper cried and called "ouch, ouch".

"My lord, the villain has told these two adults many times just now, and the villain didn't see him come in, only saw him come down from the upper floor."

Ling Xianjie and Chen Jinbao were surprised when they heard this, did they speculate wrong? And the most important thing is that I only saw people coming down from the stairs and didn't see people coming in?

"Since someone came down from upstairs, then someone must have entered your inn, why didn't you see it?"

The shopkeeper's crying and mournful face was two lines of tears at this age, and he came down in front of so many juniors.

"My lord, that day the villain was clearing the accounts in the ledger, and he kept staring at the ledger with his head down and did not look up. Later, I heard someone running down from upstairs and looked up. ”

Ling Xianjie lowered his head with his hands behind his back, and asked again, "Then did the shopkeeper see that person's backpack?" ”
