Chapter 220: Testimony

The first thing to do is to go straight to the green clothes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The place where the officials lived was a separate enclosed area, some distance from the construction site. The four of us, Green, and Mi Zhong were all later on, so we all lived on the edge of the area, in a few empty tents that no one usually lived in.

As soon as I entered the room where Green Yi lived, I saw her sitting on the edge of the collapse with dull eyes and lost soul, her eyes were red and swollen, and she was probably crying for a long time.

"Uh...... Girl in green, there are some things I want to ask you...... "Although I think it is very inappropriate to make her sad again in this situation, the time is too tight, and I can't care about pity and cherish the jade, so I can only get straight to the point."

She looked at me slowly, as if she had reacted for a few seconds, and suddenly rushed over, threw herself at my feet, and cried, "Master Mo Yan, please...... We must save the prince of the Qin period......"

I hurriedly squatted down and said in a panic while helping her: "Hey, don't do this, I will, I will, don't I come to ask you about the situation!" ā€¦ā€¦ā€

Seeing that she didn't get up, she just leaned over and cried, and it was inconvenient for me to drag her up, so I had to sit on the ground myself, and said to her helplessly: "I know you are sad and worried now, cry, I'll ask ...... when I've cried enough."

She hid her face and looked up at me with teary eyes, as if she was a little embarrassed, choked up and sighed, "Okay, you ask." ā€

"Tell me everything you know first, and I'll ask if I don't understand anything." I hastened to say.

"This ...... I'm in a mess now......" she said pitifully.

"Then let me ask directly, have you seen Qin Qi yesterday? When and where? I had no choice but to guide her.

"Yesterday, the prince of Qin came to me in the afternoon, because I was going to return to my hometown today, and he came to see if there was anything I needed to help me with. Around the end of the evening, we went out for a little walk, and the result was ...... I ran into the man surnamed Mi. She said in a low tone, only when she mentioned this surname Mi, her eyes suddenly widened, and there seemed to be fear in her eyes.

"The surname Mi is the Mi Zhong who was killed this time?" I asked in surprise.

Green Yi nodded and said, "Yes, it's him." At that time, he spoke lightly to me, and I was very scared, so Qin Qigongzi argued with him a few words in order to protect me. But I didn't expect that Qin Qigongzi would kill him! ā€

"Did you see Qin Qi kill him with your own eyes?" My heart sank.

"This ...... No, I slept until midnight, and I heard someone talking outside my tent, saying that he must be angry for me tonight, and when I came out, I saw a figure in the distance turning towards the house where the surname Mi lived. I was a little worried, so I quietly followed, just turned around and heard someone shouting murder, I ran to the door to see, there were two people in the house, the surname of Mi had fallen to the ground, and Qin Gongzi's hands were full of blood...... I immediately thought that it must be because of the events of the evening, and the prince of Qin Qi would do this for me......" When she said this, she burst into tears again, and her body trembled, as if she had returned to that bloody memory.

When I heard this, I was silent, and after a while I said, "Don't worry, I will definitely find out about this matter, but don't go back to your hometown for the time being, wait patiently for three days, and there will be a conclusion within three days." ā€

She looked at me and finally nodded, tears streaming down her cheeks.

When I walked out of the house, I really breathed a sigh of relief. Sometimes I really envy women, there is pressure and emotion, I can cry, not only can I vent my boredom and exaggerate the atmosphere, but most of the time I can make the other party follow them.

Green Yi's words can be said to be a good explanation of the previous doubts about the unlikely sudden festival between Qin and Mi Zhong. It's just that even if Qin Qi wants to be a flower protector, will he really reach the point where he will not hesitate to kill people?

The second person I'm looking for is Zhao Xi.

He didn't smile as usual, he seemed a little preoccupied, and when he saw me, he first asked, "How is it?" What did the general say? ā€

I held out three fingers and said, "Three days, give me three days to solve the case." ā€

"So, does the general believe that the prince of Qin is not a murderer?" He asked.

I shook my head and said, "He didn't believe it, he didn't believe it, he just wanted to see what I could do." ā€

"I also ran over last night when I heard someone shouting, and there were only two people in the house, Mi Zhong and Qin Gongzi, and Qin Qigongzi's hands were full of blood...... I was also taken aback...... "He obviously knew why I was here, and naturally said what I wanted to ask."

"Who was the man who fell at the door and shouted for murder?" I asked.

"His name is Zhao Li, and he is more watchful." Zhao Xi replied.

"Can I meet him?" I say.

"This ...... No problem, he was taken away by the group of soldiers who came last night for questioning, I just saw him come back, go, I'll take you to him. ā€

The two of us went out of the house and went straight to a separate room at the edge of the camp, and sure enough, we found the man we had seen in front of the house sitting in it in a state of confusion, and when he saw us coming, he jumped up like a bird and stammered, "Is there ...... Can I help you? ā€

"Zhao Li, right? My name is Mo Yan, and I would like to ask you for details about the incident you saw last night. "I tried to be as gentle as I could and try not to use words that would irritate him. Such a tragic scene, anyone who suddenly sees it, it is estimated that they will be so frightened that they will lose their souls and seven spirits.

"This ...... Haven't you asked them all? He had palpitations. Even though it's just an eyewitness, I guess the rude soldier won't be too polite when he asks.

"Don't be afraid, we are not from the military, it was Lord Zhang Han who asked us to figure things out and give the deceased a fair one." Zhao Xi said on the side.

As soon as he heard the name Zhang Han, this Zhao Li seemed to be comforted, the tense state and high nervous tension were relieved, and he said hesitantly: "You guys, what do you want to ask?" ā€

For a while, I really admired Zhaoxi's cleverness, and I could also see that the image of Lord Zhang Han in the minds of these logistics officials was quite good.

"How did you get to the room where the accident happened last night?" I asked.

"I ...... It's just the same as usual.,Walk around while playing to see if there's any problem.怂 When I got to the door, the door was open, and the light was still on inside, and I thought it was a little strange, so I looked inside, and as a result, I saw ......" He looked frightened.

"See what?" I asked.

"I saw someone lying on the ground, all covered in blood, and then the murderer was standing next to him, and his hands were also covered in blood!" Zhao Li said.

As he said this, Zhao Xi turned his head to look at me, his eyes full of worry.

Now the information I asked about is mutually corroborative, and on the surface, it seems that Qin Qi is the murderer. But in fact, there is a big loophole in this, that is, whether it is Green Yi, Zhao Xi or this Zhao Li, they have not seen the moment when Qin Qi inserted the knife into the chest of the deceased! Not to mention the others who came to watch later.

But judging from the current situation, it is too unfavorable for the Qin period. Although there are still points that can be refuted in what these witnesses said, combined with the two evidences that the murder weapon was in the possession of Qin Shi and that Qin Shi was at the scene at the time, it was enough to convict Qin Shi.

It seems that it is time to go and meet me.

Qin Period, as a major suspect in the assassination of the imperial court officials, has been imprisoned in the military prison, in order to see him, I really took a lot of time, and finally found the general Cao who brought us in at that time, it is estimated that he heard the wind from Wei Qi, so I was allowed to enter, but I did not forget to instruct: "Hurry up!" ā€

In fact, I am more anxious than anyone else, I really wish I really knew what kind of mind detection technique, just glance at Qin Qi, and see through everything he thinks in his heart!

However, when I really saw him, I was stunned on the spot, only feeling bitter in my throat, and I couldn't ask for a while.

I saw him lying on his side in a damp and dark cell, with no hay on the ground, only cold wetlands. He lay there so weakly, his hands and feet were heavily shackled, his body was covered in many wounds, his face was stained with blood and mud, and his eyes were closed, and he could barely recognize the graceful and handsome boy of the past.

"Qin Period! Qin period! ......" I gritted my teeth and called softly.

After a while, his body turned slightly, and a long sigh echoed in the oppressive cell, and then a hoarse voice responded, "...... Mo Yan ......"

I clenched my fists, trying to suppress the urge to cry, squatted down and shouted at him, "Qin Qi, I have something very important to ask you, can you ...... Come over here? ā€

"Uh-huh......" he replied in a muffled voice. Then I saw him slowly and laboriously support himself to get up, as if he could not stand up, but only leaned sideways, and moved to me step by step with difficulty, and when he looked up at me, his eyes that were barely open because of bruises and puffiness looked at me, and he actually seemed to shine, and said with a smile: "You know...... You...... It's coming! ā€

"Qin Period!" I gasped for air, told myself to be sensible, to prioritize, and immediately asked eagerly, "What the hell happened yesterday?" ā€

As if struggling to prop himself up, he leaned heavily against the fence separating us, and said in a deep voice, "...... Last night, I was sleeping when someone dropped a dart and came in...... There was a note on it, saying that Midori had been brought back to the room by Mi Zhong. …… I was a little worried, so I immediately went to Mi Zhong's, his door was open, but it was dark inside, and I couldn't see anything, as if I could only hear someone moaning, I thought it was strange, and wanted to go in and see what was going on...... Outcome...... The light suddenly turned on, and Mi Zhong was seen lying on the ground...... I wanted to save him, but I saw my ...... My needle is stuck in him......"

"Then someone shouted at the door...... I muttered subconsciously.

He nodded, his chest rising and falling, and even a simple account like this was a bit laborious for him.

"What about the afternoon? Have you seen Mi Zhong in the afternoon? (To be continued.) )
