Chapter XXII Investigation
"After we find out what is going on, your wife's body will naturally be returned to you. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info," Chen Jinbao said.
Yang Ming knelt down and bowed to Chen Jinbao and said, "Lord Xie." ”
Chen Jinbao said again: "Okay, you can go." We'll go to you for something, so it's best not to run around for the past two days. ”
Yang Ming thanked Chen Jinbao's master and apprentice and left the yamen.
Now there are more and more questions left for Chen Jinbao, did this person kill his wife?
"Master, do you think he looks like the kind of person who would kill his own daughter-in-law?" Wang Fugui asked.
Chen Jinbao shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like it." But it is also possible that it is pretended. ”
Wang Fugui then asked: "Master, this man said that his daughter-in-law had been lost for two whole days, but his daughter-in-law only died for one day. You say that if he is telling the truth, where will his daughter-in-law go the day before she dies? ”
Chen Jinbao touched his chin and said, "I don't know, from the current situation, it seems that the relationship between these two is quite good." Of course, if this feeling is true, it is a bit of a trouble. Where did his daughter-in-law go? Who killed his daughter-in-law? Why is his daughter-in-law in the coffin? I don't know how long it will take to look up these before I have an explanation. ”
Wang Fugui nodded, and then said, "Master, I think it's better for us to make it easy first and then difficult for us." What do you think about confirming that what he said is true, and then thinking about the rest? ”
Chen Jinbao nodded and said, "That's it." ”
Just do it, and the two of them are going to confirm whether what this person said is true. Yang Ming once said that he searched for a whole day in Dongcheng and asked for a day, but he didn't ask anything. So the two decided to inquire in Dongcheng if this was the case.
After arriving in Dongcheng, the two saw a roadside stall selling clay figure toys, so they walked up directly and asked: "I bother to ask you, was there a man looking for his daughter-in-law everywhere the day before yesterday?" ”
The seller was an old man about fifty years old, and when he saw that it was two catchers who were asking, he immediately walked out of the stall and gave a big gift to Chen Jinbao's master and apprentice. Then he said: "Master Catcher, there is indeed this person, and he ran over and asked the villain several times. At first, the villain thought that this was an infatuated man, but the woman he said could be found on the street, and the villain didn't know which one he was talking about. So the villain also told him that he didn't see it, but after a while he ran to ask again, and the villain still told him that he didn't see it. After a while, he came again, and asked the villain the same thing, and the villain thought at that time whether this person had a brain problem or that his wife was missing and that someone was crazy, and he came to ask if he had anything to do. The villain was originally in the children's business, and when he asked over and over again, the villain couldn't help but yell at him a few words, scaring away the villain's business a few times. My lord, are you looking for this person? The villain has not seen him today, and the villain also begged the adults to catch him and tell his family that he should see the doctor and the doctor, and don't come out to scare people. ”
Chen Jinbao nodded after hearing this, thanked the owner of the clay figure stall, and left again.
I didn't go far to a silk village. Chen Jinbao's apprentice walked in, and the shopkeeper in the store saw that it was two catchers, thinking that the yamen was coming to buy things, so he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed and said: "I don't know that the two catchers are coming, and the small shop is shining." The shop has just bought a batch of new goods, you can take a look at ......"
Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, Chen Jinbao raised his hand to interrupt, and then said: "Shopkeeper, I came today to ask you, was there a man looking for someone everywhere to ask where his daughter-in-law was the day before yesterday?" ”
When the shopkeeper heard this, his face immediately changed, and he said: "My lord, that person is a crazy person, and the day before yesterday, I came to the villain's store to inquire seven or eight times. At first, the villain didn't feel anything, but it was a little annoying to keep coming and going. So I asked the guy to drag him out, and it wasn't long before he came back and asked the same question. The villain directly asked the guy to block him at the door and prevent him from coming in, and dragged him out again. My lord, you can't blame the villain for doing a great job, he originally came to ask once, twice, or three times, but he came directly to ask seven or eight times, and kept asking the same thing. The villain did drag him out twice, but he had been here seven or eight times because he was annoyed. If you are here to ask the person for justice, please look into the matter before making a decision. ”
After the shopkeeper said this, he knelt down, Chen Jinbao hurriedly helped the shopkeeper up, and said: "Okay, the shopkeeper, we are not here to seek justice for that person, but just to ask if you have seen this person." ”
The shopkeeper stood up, then bowed to Chen Jinbao and said, "Oh, my lord is here to find that person?" I'm sorry, the villain hasn't seen him today, if you see this person again, the villain will immediately ask someone to go to the yamen to tell you. ”
Chen Jinbao nodded and thanked the shopkeeper.
Out of the silk village, the two ran to a restaurant again, and the second junior of the restaurant hurriedly ran up to Chen Jinbao's apprentice and nodded and said, "Oh, two officials, please inside, please inside." ”
Chen Jinbao said: "We don't eat, you tell me, did a man ask where his daughter-in-law was the day before yesterday?" ”
The shopkeeper thought for a moment, and then said: "Master Hui, there is indeed this person, and this person is a madman." What are the two officials looking for him? ”
Chen Jinbao then asked: "You don't care what you are looking for him for, is there such a person?" ”
The shopkeeper continued: "Yes, this madman runs back and forth, and every time he comes back, he tells the villain that he is looking for his daughter-in-law, what his daughter-in-law looks like, and so on." Ay! The villain didn't know who the woman he was talking about was, and every time he sent him away, he came again after a while, and provoked the shopkeeper to get him on the head, and asked someone to beat him out with a broom, and told the villain that when he saw him, he would find someone to beat him out with a broom. As a result, he came the next day, but fortunately, after beating him out once, he never came again. ”
Chen Jinbao nodded, thanked the shopkeeper, and walked out of the restaurant.
"Master, it seems that Yang Ming didn't lie." Wang Fugui said.
Chen Jinbao nodded and said, "It's true, but it's still troublesome if he didn't lie." ”
Wang Fugui nodded and said, "Well, it's true." ”
Just as the two of them were thinking about how to check next, several people from a restaurant in front of them threw one person out.
Chen Jinbao's master and apprentice ran forward to take a look, and found that this person was Yang Ming, and Chen Jinbao and Wang Fugui pulled him up. He said, "Thank you." Then he looked at the two catchers who had just asked him what he had just said, and he knelt down and bowed and said, "Thank you, two adults." ”
Chen Jinbao hurriedly helped him, and then asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”
Yang Ming replied: "My lord, the villain is working in this restaurant, because the lady is missing, the villain has not come to the restaurant to cook for two days." Today, the villain came to work in the restaurant, but the shopkeeper said that he couldn't control the villain, let the villain go, and the villain begged him, but he didn't listen, so he asked someone to drive the villain out. ”
After hearing this, Chen Jinbao nodded and said, "Okay, I know." ”
