"Thank you for your hard work, go back and change your clothes."

A smile bloomed on Ji Xia's face, "Haha, I smell of corpses all over me now." I'll go first. ”

After Ji Xia left, Gao Han looked at the carrion and fell into deep thought: who is he, why has he been missing for three months, and no one has come to report to him?

It seems that the most important thing at the moment is to confirm the identity of the deceased.

But the face of the dead man was ruined! This is probably the only missing person notice without a portrait.

Gao Han instructed Aji: "Send people to post notices everywhere in the county. Remember, the characteristics of the deceased deduced from Ji Cheng's work are written in as much detail as possible. ”

Aggie received the order and hurried away.

Gao Han looked at the carrion corpse and said silently: "I hope you have a spirit in the sky and help us catch your murderer as soon as possible!" ”

Early the next morning, a woman came to the yamen with a notice to report the case, claiming that her husband had disappeared.

Aji hurriedly led it to the inner hall.

"Ask the adults to help the women of the people to avenge their grievances!"

As soon as she entered the door, the woman made a gesture to kneel down and kowtow, but Ji Xia hurriedly helped her up, "Don't worry. ”

Ji Xia was a little helpless: This hasn't been verified yet, how can she be so sure that she is her father-in-law.

"Come, drink saliva first," Gao Han handed her a cup of tea, "something to say slowly." ”

After the woman calmed down, she slowly spoke: "The woman's name is Yu Genhua, and my father-in-law's name is Cao Wangchun. ”

"Do you remember when your father-in-law disappeared?"

"The woman remembers it about three months ago."

Gao Han asked puzzledly: "You said that your father-in-law has been missing for three months, so why did you only come to report the case now?" ”

Ji Xia also felt strange, how could a wife ignore her husband's whereabouts.

"My family sells rouge, and my father-in-law often goes to the capital to select and buy goods. The capital is far away, and it is common for him to be away from home for a month or two. ”

Hearing her say this, Ji Xia, who was drinking water, almost didn't squirt out, and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "You don't know where the capital is?" ”

Wang Genhua shook her head and said with some embarrassment: "I am not from Taoyuan County, and since I got married here, I have been staying at home to serve my in-laws. I can't help him with his business. ”

Ji Xia couldn't help but feel sad for her: another poor woman who paid silently for her family, but was deceived by her husband.

In fact, her public lies are not clever, but if she asks anyone in Taoyuan County, she will know that she has been deceived. But she ......

But Ji Xia did not expose her husband, but nodded and agreed with what she said.

After experiencing Rong Hening's incident, Ji Xia found that everyone has their own set of rules for doing things, which guide them to make choices, and others should not intervene, nor are they qualified to intervene. What's more, as the old saying goes: It is difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs, and this is nothing more than that.

Wang Genhua continued: "But this time, it has been three months since Xianggong left home, and I think he must have met with an accident!" ”

As she spoke, she hid her face and began to cry.

Ji Xia handed her a handkerchief and said, "Is your father-in-law the same as described on this notice?" ”

Wang Genhua choked up and said: "The women don't know how to read, so they don't know what is written on it. I heard Wang Aniu next door say that the government posted a notice looking for someone, so I came. ”

As soon as these words came out, Ji Xia was speechless, turned his head to look at Gao Han, and saw that Gao Han was also helpless. Xindao: Heh, she can't be sure that this deceased person is her father-in-law!

"Then you always know how tall and heavy your husband is, and whether there are any obvious features on your body, right?"

Wang Genhua nodded and said, "My husband is about five feet and one inch long, and he is quite thin. As a characteristic, he has a scar on the palm of his left hand. ”

Ji Xia and Gao Han suddenly felt disheartened: it seems that the deceased is not Cao Chunwang.

"This deceased person is not your father-in-law, maybe your father-in-law is still alive." Ji Xia said lightly.

"Ah, that's great, thank you, sir." Wang Genhua wiped her tears and went back happily.

Ji Xia felt very speechless: Eighty percent of his father-in-law went to mess around again. It's better for her to go directly to the yamen to mourn her husband?
