Chapter 17: Chasing the Murderer
readx;? Yang Jing made such a quick inference about the case of the Xia family's extermination, and couldn't help but let Zhou Wenfang, the criminal case magistrate, see the hope of arresting the murderer. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
But as soon as Yang Jing got into the case, he became very focused, and he didn't take into account Zhou Wenfang's face when he spoke.
It wasn't until Zhou Wenfang opened his mouth that Yang Jing realized this.
"What kind of identity do you have, you want to teach the official to do things! These are just your inferences, if there is a mistake, use tolerance, and miss the opportunity to hunt down the murderer, who will be responsible!"
Yang Jing originally wanted to say, you, the lord of the pusher, are still basking in the sun here slowly, and the murderer is really going to escape, but now he has pointed out the direction to you, but he is worried that the direction is wrong and he will miss the golden time for pursuit.
If there was no Yang Jing's inference, he Zhou Wenfang would have cleaned up the mess at most, and then returned to the county government and posted bounties everywhere, but first, there were no graphics and shadows, and secondly, it was located in a remote area, and the possibility of witnesses was not great.
Although he thought so in his heart, Yang Jing didn't have time to entangle with Zhou Wenfang, since Yang Zhixian assigned the head catcher Wang Dou and four catchers, plus Zhang Zheng and himself, that is, seven people, and there were only three murderers, one of whom was a wounded, as long as it could be found, it should not be difficult to take it down.
The difficulty is that it has taken them half an hour to come here from the county office, and they have been delayed for a lot of time, and if they catch up on foot, it will be difficult to catch up when it gets dark.
After thinking about it, Yang Jing put his idea on the carriage, when they came, there were two carriages in total, and there were also two carriages on the side of Zhou Wenfang, Yang Jing's carriage was a horse-drawn carriage, which could provide two horses, and Zhou Wenfang's carriage was larger, and it was also luxurious, but it was pulled by two horses, and it was used to haul the corpse back to the house, and the carriage was also two horses, adding up to six horses!
With these horses, they were able to catch up with the murderer in time, but the problem was that Zhou Wenfang was already very prejudiced against himself, and he was afraid that he would not unload the horses for his own use.
Yang Jing had a plan in his heart, so he discussed it with Zhang Zheng and Wang Dou, Wang Dou was an old head catcher, and thought that this matter was feasible, so Zhang Zheng proposed it to Zhou Wenfang with caution.
How do you know that Zhou Wenfang suddenly became angry, and Yang Jing also knew that if he took these horses away, the corpse would not be able to be pulled back to the house in time, and Zhou Wenfang's carriage would naturally not be able to go back.
After all, Yang Jing is not a person from the county government, so he can't rob these horses, although the headhunter Wang Dou also made it clear to Zhou Wenfang, saying that they were only sent by Yang Zhixian on business and had to obey Yang Jing's orders, but Zhou Wenfang just didn't buy it.
Seeing the passage of time, Yang Jing was also anxious, but Zhou Wenfang didn't get in with oil and salt, he thought about it, so he summoned Wang Dou over, and whispered a few words in his ear, Wang Dou was a little stunned, but he still followed the instructions and muttered to Zhou Wenfang for a while, but he didn't expect Zhou Wenfang's face to be happy, and he really agreed!
Yang Jing just shook his head secretly, crying and laughing, and was waiting for Wang Dou to unload the car and untie the horse, but the Xia Zhi girl came over and said with tears in her eyes: "Sir, slave... The slave wants to go with you..."
Yang Jing subconsciously wanted to refuse, after all, it was not a tour of the mountains and rivers, the objects were all murderers who did not blink an eye, and it was a very dangerous thing to take the summer solstice, besides, there were seven of them combined, and the six horses could barely be used, plus the summer solstice, it must have slowed down.
can remember that he once promised Xia Solstice that if she saw the murderer with her own eyes, she couldn't bear to refuse, there were only two people who could move the murderer, and there was also a wounded, who would definitely throw a mouse bogey, and it should not be difficult to arrest, Wang Dou and others are also veterans.
After thinking about it, Yang Jing decided to let Zhang Zheng and one of the arresters stay in order to assist Zhou Wenfang's two servants to guard the body and the scene, so that they could also send people back to the county government to move the rescue soldiers.
Zhang Zheng still had a wound on his neck, and he had no opinion on Yang Jing's proposal, so Yang Jing and Wang Dou and the four catchers, plus the summer solstice girl, embarked on the road to hunt down the murderer.
Although the speed of these horses is not fast, they are all old horses pulling carts, and their endurance is quite good.
Yang Jing and Wang Dou summed it up, after all, chasing the murderer is such a thing, or an old catcher like Wang Dou is good at it after all.
Yang Jing believes that in order to cover up his whereabouts, the murderers will definitely choose a remote and uninhabited wilderness or a ruined temple or other hiding place.
However, Wang Dou thought that if this murderer was really as Yang Jing speculated, one of them had been seriously injured, then he would definitely not choose the barren mountains and mountains, because the conditions on the mountains were harsh, and the wounded could not be treated well, and their best choice should be the nearby villages!
The people in the village have not seen much of the world, and it is easy to deceive and dismiss, as long as they are given some money, they can settle down.
Yang Jing listened to Wang Dou's analysis, and he was also impressed, after all, there is a specialization in the art industry, and Wang Dou can become a head catcher, and the experience is still enough.
From last night's encounter with Song Fengya and others digging graves and opening coffins, to today's rescue of Li Wanniang, and now the scene of the murder, Yang Jing is non-stop, in just one night and one day, this experience is too full and compact.
His identity has not yet been clarified, the shipwreck case has begun to appear, but it is still foggy, one case after another, the general trend has been reflected, and the murderer behind the scenes seems to have begun to kill people.
As long as the murderer is caught, he will be able to ask the mastermind of the extermination, he will be able to know who the mysterious Gu Master is, and he will be able to open the mystery of the shipwreck!
Therefore, whether or not these three murderers can be caught is not only Yang Jing's top priority, but also the key to the entire shipwreck case!
Yang Jing was thinking about this, and suddenly felt the body of the Xia Solstice girl in his arms trembling, so he lowered his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xia Zhi dodged his gaze and didn't dare to raise his head, just shrunk into Yang Jing's arms, shook his head gently, and whispered that it was okay.
Yang Jing thought that she had never ridden a horse, so she comforted her softly: "The first time I rode a horse, it was like this, the first time I rode a horse..."
Speaking of this, Yang Jing remembered the good times of modern life in later generations, and he still vaguely remembered that he was able to learn to ride a horse, and once followed the forensic doctors in the team to the remote places of the Inner Mongolia prairie to support the local forensic construction.
Xia Zhi saw that Yang Jing suddenly stopped talking, and asked sensitively, "What's wrong with Mr.?"
Yang Jing just smiled and shook his head, the two were silent for a moment, and Xia Zhi asked again: "What did Mr. Shicai say to Wang Dou, and the Zhou Tui actually agreed?"
Yang Jing didn't expect that her actions couldn't hide from this little girl, but after thinking about it, this little girl is used to serving her master, and she naturally has the ability and eyesight to observe words and feelings.
He didn't want to see this strong little girl immersed in grief, so he explained to her with a smile.
"I asked Wang Dou to tell the pusher, saying that my inference is not necessarily correct, most of them are pretending to be sophisticated nonsense, lending me horses, once I can't hunt down the murderers, and delay their business, go back and report to Yang Zhixian, in the future, the county magistrate will not dare to let people like me mess up government affairs..."
When Xia Zhi heard this, he couldn't help but look up, and saw that Yang Jing's eyes were full of smiles, and he was also infected, and he burst out laughing, but when he thought of his dead family, his smile stopped abruptly.
"Sir will not be wrong, Sir will not be wrong, slave and maid believe in Sir!"
Yang Jing saw that she had a serious face, and it was not easy to be modest, because he was still confident in his judgment, and remembered the smile of Xia Solstice just now, so he joked.
"I'm not a few years older than you, don't call me Mr. in the future, but call me old, every time I hear you call me sir, I feel like my beard is popping out..."
Xia Zhi was really amused by Yang Jing, and said with a smile: "Mr. has a great favor with Xia Zhi, Xia Zhi is a lowly person, how can he abolish the number of etiquette, Mr. thinks the slave is stupid, so he will be called Gongzi in the future..."
The concept of respect and inferiority has long been ingrained in the hearts of the ancients, and Yang Jing couldn't change Xia Zhi's mind, but he still replied with a smile.
"All people are equal, respect and humility depend on what a person does, and I am not a rich young master, so that the son listens to the flesh and numbness, and if you don't dislike it, call me Brother Yang." ”
When Xia Zhi heard this, he seemed to have an understanding, but he quickly came to his senses, looked at Yang Jing and said, "The slave is just a subordinate, how dare she be so disrespectful..."
Yang Jing deliberately straightened his face, although the mask covered his expression, but a pair of eyes could speak, glaring at Xia Zhi and feigning anger: "If you are so angry, Brother Yang will not help you!"
He admired Xia Zhi's loyalty and strength, and cherished her for going through hardships at a young age, being a slave and a maid in the mansion but not forgetting her original intention, and still maintaining the essence of kindness, but she was coerced after all and accepted other people's Gu poison, although she was not poisoned in the end, but she wanted to continue to do things in the Cao family, I am afraid it is not easy, and now that her family has been wiped out, Yang Jing has the heart to help her.
Xia Zhi was also warm in his heart, squinted a pair of watery eyes, and shyly whispered: "Yes... Brother Yang..."
At this time, the sunset was slanting, and the afterglow sprinkled on the face, covering Xia Zhi's delicate and fair cheeks with a layer of reddish tulle, and I don't know if it was shyness blushing, or afterglow was naughty.
Yang Jing looked down, the tips of the two noses were almost touching each other, although Yang Jing likes the type of light mature woman, but the delicate little Lori is in her arms, her eyes are facing each other, and she can't avoid the deer bumping into her heart, so she hurriedly turned her head.
Xia Zhi also lowered her head in shame, Yang Jing turned around, saw the little girl's small and white ears, looked at the pink ears, and let her green silk fly in front of her, smelling the girl's fragrance, indescribably comfortable.
However, at this time, Wang Dou's reminder broke Yang Jing's short-term addiction.
"Sir, the front is Luoxia Village!"
Yang Jing looked around, although there was no sunset and lonely birds flying together, and the autumn water was the same color as the sky, but the quiet village with curling smoke was also particularly charming in the afterglow.
According to Wang Dou's speculation, this is the nearest village, and those murderers are very likely to be hiding inside!
Yang Jing and Xia Zhi glanced at each other, the latter clenched his pink fist, while Yang Jing subconsciously glanced at the large scalpel hidden in his waist!
