Chapter 15: Another Ghost?

After coming out of Zheng Qing's house, the two were about to go back to the yamen, and on the way the two were discussing the case. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Fugui, what do you think of first?" Chen Jinbao said.

Wang Fugui nodded, and then said: "Master, I suspect that the corpse should have been dragged out after we left the house, at that time there was only the second stunned in the house, first do not suspect the second stunned, and don't say that it is a ghost, at least the second stunned should have seen something at that time, but the second stunned said that he didn't see anything, if it was really the second stunned murderer who dragged the corpse out of the hall, it would definitely not be placed in the hall, at this time, the premise that the master said can be used, it's not that the second stunned didn't see it, but the second stunned was too scared to pay attention to it." ”

Chen Jinbao nodded, and then said: "Yes, and when I searched the house that day, I also found a very new clean mark on the door of the first room on the right, which means that we were in the house at the time, and there was another person in the house, and he was trying to find a way to deal with the corpse, the evidence is that the house with clean marks was found, and there were signs that something had been dragged on the bed, it should be the corpse, and at that time, we were all still in the house, and the murderer did not drag the body out, and after we left, The body was dragged out, and why was the body thrown in the hall......"

Chen Jinbao stopped and looked at Wang Fugui when he said this, and Wang Fugui also looked at Chen Jinbao, and then the two said in unison: "Because he saw Er stunned in the courtyard!" ”

The two were overjoyed, the case had all been explained, and the next step was to find out who the murderer was.

"Master, who do you think the murderer will be?" Wang Fugui asked.

Chen Jinbao touched his chin and said: "It's still unclear, I suspect that the two people, first of all, are the shopkeeper of the wine shop, not to mention whether he has any intersection with the deceased, at least he has the ability to commit crimes, and secondly, the person who wrote letters to the deceased, that person we haven't investigated yet, maybe he has some secrets." ”

Wang Fugui bit his thumb, and then said: "Master, then let's look at the premise of what the master said, if the shopkeeper of the wine shop is the murderer, then the wine shop lady must be pretending to be crazy, if that Lu Dayou is the murderer, then he must have asked the deceased to go to the house that night, Lu Dayou has a brother over there to investigate, let's go and see what you say about the wine shop lady's side first?" ”

Chen Jinbao nodded and said, "That's what I mean." ”

So the two turned around and went to the South Street wine shop, but it is not easy to verify whether people are really crazy or pretending to be crazy, because the fever and wind chill can be tested by Lang Zhong, and the physical injuries can also be directly seen, but how to detect whether this is really crazy or pretending to be crazy? Even if it is a sudden attack, in case the shopkeeper of the wine store is fully prepared to let his daughter pretend to be crazy and stupid for a few days to deceive all the maids, you must know that the lady of the wine shop is crazy This matter is only known after listening to the rumors.

Chen Jinbao thought of the prescription that he asked for from the shopkeeper of the wine shop, and the two went to a pharmacy to ask, but the shopkeeper of the pharmacy said that this was just a concocted medicine, not a medicine that would have any side effects after drinking.

After coming out of the pharmacy, Chen Jinbao was at a loss, on the way to the South Street wine shop, Wang Fugui turned his head and came up with a way, leaned to Chen Jinbao's ear and whispered, Chen Jinbao listened and laughed while sighing in his heart, if Fugui entered the yamen a few years earlier and met the master two days earlier, then I guess he must be his apprentice.

The two arrived at South Street and went directly to the back door of the wine shop.

"Knock..... Boom...... Boom"

After knocking on the door a few times, the door opened after a while, and I saw a housekeeper holding a broom and scolding as soon as he opened the door: "Who, robbery? The front entrance does not go through the back door. ”

Chen Jinbao's master and apprentice looked at each other when they heard this, and the family members knelt down in fright when they saw that it was two catchers.

"Oops! Official, the villain doesn't know that you are the one who is not inferior, you have to bypass the villain! The family shouted with a crying voice.

As soon as Chen Jinbao heard it, he immediately covered his mouth and said, "Okay, don't scream, we won't embarrass you, you listen to me now, is your old lady not here now?" ”

Chen Jinbao let go of the family, and the family took two breaths and said: "Back to the official, the master of the villain's family is in the shop, and the lady went out to the temple to ask for the safety of the young lady." ”

Chen Jinbao nodded and said, "Okay, then you take me to see your young lady now, remember, no one is allowed to know about this until we come out, otherwise beware of sending you to prison for a few days." ”

The family was frightened when he heard this, and asked, "Official, haven't you just seen it?" It's already sick like that, why are you looking for her? ”

Chen Jinbao raised his tone and said: "You don't care about this, just take us there quickly, remember, no one is allowed to know that we are here before we leave!" ”

Jia Ding had no choice but to take Chen Jinbao and the two to Miss's house, and at this time, Jia Ding beat a drum in his heart, thinking what were these two people going to do? No one is allowed to know, can it be said.........

The family was very afraid of the two yamen people, so he could only take them on a long detour to avoid the sight of the others and walk to the front of the young lady's house.

"Two officials, it's here." Jia Ding said tremblingly.

Chen Jinbao nodded and said, "Okay, you stay here for me first, don't walk around." ”

He bowed and replied, "Yes." ”

At this time, Jia Ding felt more and more that his conjecture was right.

Chen Jinbao turned his head to Wang Fugui and said, "Fugui, take off your clothes, hurry up." ”

"Yes."

After Wang Fugui responded, he began to take down the knife hanging from his waist, took off his official uniform and hat, ripped off the bun on his head and handed it to Chen Jinbao. At this time, the family was frightened and asked, "Official, what do you want to ........?"

"Shut up!"

Before Jia Ding finished speaking, Chen Jinbao interrupted and ordered him.

At this time, Wang Fugui wore a white underwear and entered the house with a cloak on his head, and Chen Jinbao also walked to the door to see the situation inside.

Taking advantage of Chen Jinbao's inattention, Jia Ding immediately turned around and ran back, Chen Jinbao saw Jia Ding running away, and at this time he didn't have time to take care of Jia Ding, so he could only concentrate on looking at the situation inside.

After Wang Fugui entered, the wine shop lady didn't notice him, but just sat on the bed with his fingers in a dull look, and at this time, Wang Fugui stretched out his hand and said in a very strange voice: "I'm going to kill you..... I'm going to kill you....."

When the liquor shop lady looked up, she immediately pulled her hair and the quilt and shouted, "Ah! Yes! Yes! Hell! Hell! Yes! ”

Wang Fugui walked forward slowly, the wine shop lady kept shouting and retreating to the corner of the bed, thinking that it was no longer possible to retreat, at this time the young lady grabbed the pillow on the bed and threw it at Wang Fugui, smashed Wang Fugui's head and bounced back under the bed, Miss immediately jumped off the bed, picked up the pillow and grabbed it with both hands, jumped and smashed Wang Fugui's head, and shouted while smashing: "Kill you!" Shoot you! Kill you! You killed someone and you wanted to kill me! I'll kill you! ”

When Chen Jinbao heard this, he immediately stepped forward and pulled away the young lady of the wine shop, and said as he pulled it: "Miss, Miss, it's okay, he's not a ghost, he's a human." ”

When the wine shop lady heard this, she immediately stopped, Wang Fugui also pushed back the hair that was blocking her face, the wine shop lady's face was much better, it seemed that she was really crazy, and now Chen Jinbao said that it was not a ghost or a person, she could hear it and stopped, it must have been fine.

At this time, the shopkeeper rushed in with a few housekeepers with brooms, rolling pins, and kitchen knives, saw this scene, and shouted, "What are you going to do?" ”

As soon as the words fell, the lady rushed in again, holding the young lady and shrinking into the corner.

When Chen Jinbao saw this situation, it must have been a misunderstanding of the shopkeeper, and said: "Shopkeeper, don't get excited, your young lady's illness should have been cured." ”

And the young lady also shouted as if helping Chen Jinbao: "Dad, mother." ”

When the shopkeeper and Mrs. heard this, they immediately walked up to the young lady and asked nonsense.

"Daughter, do you recognize your father?"

"Daughter, are you really okay?"

"Daughter, you're worried about your mother's death."

...........

Chen Jinbao handed the knife to Wang Fugui to put on and hang it on, and the shopkeeper of the wine shop turned around and asked Chen Jinbao: "My lord, how did you cure the little girl, the doctors are helpless." ”

Chen Jinbao smiled and said: "Haha, it's not the way I think of it, it's the idea of this pretending ghost catcher, since drinking the decoction has always been useless, maybe it may be useful to think about the method of fighting poison with poison, so I tried it, and I didn't have too much certainty, who knew that it really succeeded." Or your young lady is really bold enough, otherwise this recipe may not be useful. ”

When the shopkeeper and his wife heard this, they immediately knelt down with the young lady, and the family members knelt down with them, and the shopkeeper said: "My lord, you are really a living fairy, you not only saved the little girl, but also saved the villain's whole family, this dog slave also said that you ......... Come on, knock this dog slave out of the door. ”

When the family heard this, he was so frightened that he immediately kowtowed, Chen Jinbao saw that things had become like this, and said: "Eh, shopkeeper, your family is a good young man, I asked him not to say it or he will be dragged to prison, he can tell you regardless of himself, it can be seen that he is loyal to you, you should reward him." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he continued: "Then obey the orders of the Lord of the "God Catcher". ”

When the family heard this, he immediately kowtowed to Chen Jinbao and said, "Thank you" God Catcher ", thank you Lord "God Catcher". ”

Chen Jinbao waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, you guys get up first, I have something I want to ask your young lady, can it be convenient." ”

The shopkeeper and everyone stood up, he bowed to Chen Jinbao and said, "Lord "God Catcher", no matter how inconvenient the villain is, he can't help the adult. ”

Chen Jinbao thanked the shopkeeper, then walked up to the young lady and asked, "Miss, do you remember when you went to the ghost house the night before?" ”

The young lady nodded, and Chen Jinbao asked again: "What did you see that night, tell me in detail." ”

The young lady swallowed her saliva and said: "That day, I went to play with Tie Dan and Xiao Dunzi after dinner, and then played late, we proposed to go to the ghost house to see what the ghost looked like, and then we ran to the ghost house, when we saw a figure in the hall at the door, both of them were frightened, I said I wanted to go, I said I wanted to go, I went to see it alone, but the two cowards really ran away, I entered the house alone, and quietly walked to the dead tree in the yard, At that time, I saw that the figure was still dangling in the hall, I wanted to get closer to see if it was a person or a ghost, and quietly walked to the window of the hall to look, at that time I found that it was a man, and sat down and looked around, I never showed up, I wanted to see what he wanted to do, but after a while he got up and walked towards the main seat of the hall, I took a closer look, and found that his eyes had been staring at the painting hanging on the main seat, I thought he might have wanted to see what the painting was, so I didn't think much about it, Who knew that at this time, a female ghost rushed out of the painting......"

The young lady cried when she said this, and Chen Jinbao was also shocked when she heard this, and asked, "What?" Rushed a female ghost out? ”

The young lady rubbed her eyes while crying, and nodded vigorously.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper said: "My lord, the little girl's illness is just right, and the things she may remember are still a little confusing, so she is talking nonsense." ”

When the young lady heard this, she shouted to her father: "I'm not talking nonsense, it's true, I really saw it!" ”

Chen Jinbao waved his hand at the shopkeeper to signal him not to speak, and then continued to ask, "Miss, what does that ghost you see look like?" ”

The young lady held back her sobs and said: "It's very scary, just like he just pretended to be disheveled, dressed in white, and with a lot of hair, he vaguely looks very white, and when he rushed out, he stretched out his hands and grabbed the man's neck at once." ”

Chen Jinbao nodded, and then asked, "Then what happened?" ”

The young lady tugged at her sleeve and wiped her nose, and then said, "Then I was so frightened that I covered my mouth and did not dare to scream, and as soon as I turned around, I ran out of the yard with all my might, and then I went home. ”

Chen Jinbao then asked: "Then did you hear any sound when you ran?" ”

The young lady then replied, "There was a sound, it should be the sound of the female ghost pounced on the person and hit the chair, and I vaguely remember the sound of an iron falling to the ground, and I don't remember anything else." ”

Chen Jinbao nodded solemnly, and continued to ask: "Miss, you can recall the situation you watched by the window at that time, remember, focus on your situation, not the situation you saw." ”

The young lady thought for a moment, and then said, "I was quietly walking from the dead tree to the window on the left, and as soon as I looked up, the man had just turned around and walked away from the window, and I was startled, and I quietly walked to the second window and looked on my stomach, and I saw him standing in the chair on the right and then sat down, and then I saw him looking around, and I ....... carefully."

Before the young lady finished speaking, Chen Jinbao interrupted and said, "Then he stood up and walked to the main seat after a while?" ”

The young lady nodded, and continued, "Yes, that's it. ”

Chen Jinbao turned his head to stare at Wang Fugui, and Wang Fugui also stared at Chen Jinbao, and the two looked at each other.

"My lord, there are still ghosts here, do you think the villain wants to exorcise the ghosts for his daughter." The shopkeeper asked.

Chen Jinbao shook his head and said, "Don't worry, if you really want to exorcise ghosts, I will come to tell you." ”
