Chapter 68: There is still a hidden story in the case
After hearing this, Liu Yi scolded Wu Qi and said, "Wu Qi, Wu Qi! How can there be such a foolish person as you in the world! You were cowardly and angry with your wife back then, and now your foolishness and absurdity are trying to kill yourself. ”
Wu Qi stopped crying and asked puzzledly, "Excuse me, what do you mean by your words?" ”
Wang Zhen explained: "My lord is saying that someone else made a game for you to jump into, and you really jumped in." ”
Wu Qi was even more puzzled by the second monk, and Wang Zhen explained: "Don't you still understand? Zhuang Er deliberately approached you and asked you to carry the black pot. The name Zhuang Er is most likely not his real name. ”
Wu Qi asked in surprise: "My lord is saying that Zhuang Er didn't kill Tu Biao for me?" ”
Liu Yi said: "Wu Qi, this mansion asks you, if this mansion tells you where Tu Biao lives now, will you poison Tu Biao's family?" ”
Wu Qi exclaimed: "No! ”
Liu Yi said: "Why not? ”
Wu Qidao: "My wife asked me to go to Tu Biao to seek justice, but I felt that Tu Biao did not succeed and should be made small, so I didn't go." My wife thought I was a wreck, and she hanged herself out of breath. In general, the fundamental responsibility lies with me! ”
Liu Yi asked: "Did you ask Zhuang Er to help you kill Tu Biao when you were drunk?" ”
Wu Qi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "My lord, no!" No! Murder is a big crime to cut off the head, how could I ask Zhuang Er to help me kill someone! ”
Liu Yi said: "Then now you understand! Zhuang Er took the initiative to kill Tu Biao not for you, but for himself to kill Tu Biao, you are just a substitute for the dead ghost after he carefully prepared to kill Tu Biao. ”
Wu Qi sat on the ground in shock.
Wang asked: "Wu Qi, have you revealed to Zhuang Er what are the precious calligraphy and paintings in your store?" ”
Wu Qidao: "Yes! Zhuang Er asked me. ”
Wang Qiandao: "Zhuang Er should have made two preparations, one is to induce you to go to the yamen to confess and surrender, and the other is to steal your calligraphy and paintings and money while you are not there, and escape." If our people go late, you will lose both people and money! ”
Wu Qi finally understood, and sat on the ground crying and grabbed the ground.
Liu Yi asked Wang Qian: "The arsenic was bought by Wu Qi, how can we make Zhuang Er confess?" ”
Wang asked, "Wu Qi, have you ever left Jiankang City recently?" ”
Wu Qidao: "No! But I live alone, and no one proves it. ”
Wang asked, "Has your shop been open all the time?" ”
Wu Qidao: "It's always open. ”
Wang asked, "What are the opening hours?" ”
Wu Qidao: "I open from morning to night every day. ”
The king asked, "Do you have horses?" ”
Wu Qidao: "No! ”
Wang asked: "If Wu Qi's words are true, it can be determined that Wu Qi did not have the time to commit the crime." Zhuang Er should be a pseudonym, he knows Tu Biao's residence and Tu Biao's festival with Wu Qi, which shows that he is very familiar with Tu Biao. It should not be difficult to find this person from Tu Biao's network. Moreover, he spent several months setting up this bureau to find a substitute for the dead, which shows that if Tu Biao dies, he will also be seriously suspected. With Wu Qi's testimony and Wu Qi's lack of time to commit the crime, Zhuang Er's guilt can basically be convicted. ”
At this time, Qin Bantou went to the court and said, "My lord, a male corpse was found in Wu Qi's house, and I have asked him to conduct an autopsy." ”
Wu Qi collapsed to the ground in fright, and Liu Yi asked, "What kind of case is it?" ”
Qin Bantou said: "It was a murderer case, and the deceased was cut off by a knife in the main artery of the neck. The killer was an expert, and no clues were found at the scene. ”
Liu Yan asked Wang Qian: "What do you think about finding a substitute for the dead ghost first, and then being killed and killed?" ”
"I don't know what they want to hide. However, Tu Biao is the source of the incident, and it still needs to be investigated from Tu Biao. ”
Liu Yi asked: "Wu Qi, what do you know about Tu Biao?" ”
Wu Qidao: "My lord, although I used to be Tu Biao's neighbor, I didn't know much about him. All I remember is that he used to be a merchant, and he used to run between the north and the south. ”
Wang asked: "The crux of the problem may be in the north. ”
Liu Yi said: "The north is a occupied area, and there are wars everywhere, what did Tu Biao do to be chased and killed like this?" Qin Bantou, you send someone to investigate Tu Biao's past. ”
Qin Bantou said: "Yes, my lord!" ”
Liu Yi said: "Retire!" ”
Retreating to the inner hall, Wang Zhen said to Liu Yi: "My lord, I want to start taking marriage leave tomorrow." ”
Liu Yi said: "Okay! You should report to the Gongcao of the Yali! I will approve you for fifteen days. ”
Wang asked: "Thank you, sir! ”
In the afternoon, Wang Zhen was in his public study, and Lu Jinfu came in to greet Wang.
Wang asked, "Brother Lu, is there something wrong with me?" ”
Lu Jinfu said: "My lord, I came here to ask about the case in the morning. ”
Wang asked, "Is Brother Lu interested in this case?" ”
Lu Jinfu said: "Yes, Lord Lao told me the details of the case. ”
Wang said: "I don't know many details, I can only generalize." There was a man named Tu Biao, a family of four was poisoned, and the murderer did not bother to find a substitute ghost, and in the end the murderer was also killed. ”
Lu Jinfu said: "I heard that this case is related to the north? ”
Wang asked: "No, that's just speculation!" Tu Biao was a merchant who traveled between the north and the south more than ten years ago, and it is still impossible to determine why he was killed! ”
Lu Jinfu asked, "Where does the person who is going to be used as a substitute for the dead live?" ”
Wang Qiandao: "That person's name is Wu Qi, and he lives at No. 18, Lane 2, Changganli. ”
Lu Jinfu said: "Thank you, sir! ”
Wang asked, "Why is Brother Lu interested in this case?" ”
Lu Jinfu said: "This case is likely to be related to a case I am pursuing, please forgive my subordinates for not telling the truth!" ”
Wang asked: "It's okay! Qin Bantou was the first to arrive at the scene of the extermination, and you may know more about Qin Bantou. ”
Lu Jinfu said: "Okay! Subordinates retire! ”
When it was almost time to get off work, Wang Zhen went to Gongcao to report for vacation, passed by Zhou Yixuan's door, and saw Zhou Yixuan quietly watching Zhao Di who was cleaning the gazebo in the distance in the corridor.
Wang Zhen walked next to Zhou Yixuan and said, "Brother Yixuan, if you like it, pursue it, don't leave regrets!" ”
Zhou Yixuan looked at Wang Zhen and said, "Brother Wang doesn't know, my father is the secretary of the military department, and my marriage is not up to me." ”
Wang Zhen smiled: "Brother Yixuan, I'm ready to get married, and the bride is the person I like." ”
Zhou Yixuan smiled bitterly and said, "Congratulations, Brother Wang!" I don't know if Brother Wang is interested in inviting him, and he will give a small gift to Brother Wang. ”
Wang Zhen smiled: "If Brother Yixuan and Zhao Di come together, I will welcome you." ”
Zhou Yixuan said: "Brother Wang, don't be embarrassed. ”
Wang asked: "Okay! I'm not kidding Brother Yixuan. I won't invite Brother Yixuan to my wedding banquet from Jane, and I ask Brother Yixuan to forgive me! ”
Zhou Yixuan said: "Understand! Congratulations again, Brother Wang! ”
Wang Zhen smiled: "Thank you!" Let's go! ”
Wang Zhen turned his head, Zhou Yixuan was still quietly looking at Zhao Di in the corridor, and Wang Zhen smiled helplessly.
