Chapter 90: The meticulous Feng Pu and the cunning Cao Cao

Yan Ning held back his anger and pulled Wu Song to leave quickly, after all, the top priority was to rescue Cao Cao.

It is said that Feng Pu and his entourage rode their horses and galloped, first according to the confessions of Cao Cao and Wang Meng, and came to the north of Fan County, and after careful searching, they found seven corpses in a charred jungle.

Feng Pu carefully inspected the scene, inspected seven bones one by one, and then hurried to the Fanxian County Office.

Feng Pu became the Shaoyin of Kaifeng Mansion at a young age, relying on reasonable inferences and discerning everything, and when he was ordered to investigate the case of Li Shishi, he understood that the case was very tricky.

If it is an ordinary case, it is okay to close the case in a hurry, but this case is different, and it is impossible to close the case without finding out all the facts.

Even if Cao Cao was tortured, as long as he did not confess the position of Master Li, the case could not be closed.

Because Zhao Ji wants Master Li, if he can't find Master Li, everything will be in vain. Even if he kills 10,000 Cao Cao, it will be difficult to calm the anger of the Son of Heaven, and he will even be charged with unfavorable handling of the case and bullying the king.

Feng Pu knew that he could only make a deal if he found Master Li, so he did not chase Cao Cao at first. He had to slowly wear down Cao Cao's will and force Cao Cao to comply, otherwise if Cao Cao's rebellious psychology was aroused, Feng Pu would be difficult to ride a tiger.

Cao Cao was in a dark dungeon at this time, because he had no reference object, he had lost the concept of time, he didn't know what time it was, and he didn't know how long he had been in the dungeon.

During this time, Cao Cao's water and rice did not enter, but it was not hunger that died, but muscle soreness and fear of the unknown.

Because the dungeon was very narrow, Cao Cao was forced to hold one position for a long time, and his muscles would be painful, sore, and swollen all the time, and his stiffness would be unbearable.

Cao Cao didn't know how many times he cursed in his heart, and he didn't know which one of the people who killed a thousand knives came up with this punishment.

In this ghost place, Cao Cao didn't want to stay for a minute.

Suddenly, Cao Cao heard footsteps and said eagerly as if he had met hope in a desperate situation: "Who is it?" Whoever is outside, let me out! ”

"Have you figured it out? To recruit, or not to recruit? Cao Cao's voice rang from Feng Pu's ears.

It turned out that Feng Pu carefully inquired about the county order in Fan County, checked some files, and then Pegasus returned to Yanggu County.

Cao Cao endured the pain and replied in a deep voice: "Lord Feng, what I said is the truth, why don't you believe it?" ”

After a long silence, Cao Cao heard the sound of the cell door opening, and Cao Cao looked at Feng Pu outside the cell door in surprise, but his mind was quickly thinking about Feng Pu's reason for doing this.

Cao Cao walked out of the dungeon with hesitant eyes, because his legs were stiff and sore, and he almost didn't stand firm.

Feng Pu looked at Cao Cao and asked lightly, "Do you know why I let you out?" ”

Cao Cao's second monk was puzzled, and he didn't understand it: "I don't know." ”

Feng Pu explained: "Because there is no point in locking you up, to tell you the truth, Wang Meng has already recruited, and I will press you into Beijing tomorrow." ”

When Cao Cao heard Feng Pu's words, he froze in place like five thunderbolts, and muttered, "What? Wang Meng's move? ”

Wang Meng knew everything that had happened, and if he recruited him, Cao Cao would definitely be killed.

However, with Cao Cao's treacherous instantaneous reaction, it is very likely that Feng Pu was deliberately deceiving him, and Feng Pu chose to attack his heart without having the evidence!

If Cao Cao believed Feng Pu's words and told him about Master Li, it would be in his arms.

In his previous life, Cao Cao often used this method to interrogate prisoners, and he was very familiar with this kind of trick, and secretly laughed at Feng Proudan for getting a big axe in front of the door.

Cao Cao calmed down and said, "Master Feng, I know best what I have done and what I haven't done. The case of Master Li's disappearance has nothing to do with me, and I hope that your Excellency will find out. ”

The reason why Feng Pu released Cao Cao from the dungeon was not out of kindness, but because it was convenient to observe his expression when he was cheating him.

Cao Cao's obvious distraction was seen by Feng Pu, and he naturally didn't believe Cao Cao's nonsense: "If that's the case, then why were you stunned just now?" ”

Cao Cao stretched his waist and shook his neck again, before he said slowly: "My lord, I have been in the dungeon for so many days, my muscles are sore, my consciousness has long been blurred, and it is normal to react slowly. ”

When Feng Pu saw Cao Cao's performance, he knew that his move to deceive him had failed.

Separate interrogations, confessions, and then deceitful revelations are common methods used in the trial of cases, and many cases open up the situation in this way.

But obviously, this set did not work for Cao Cao.

Feng Pu's strategy failed, but he was not discouraged, and continued to ask, "Is it?" Then I ask you, how did the seven people who traveled with you die? ”

Cao Cao secretly rejoiced that he had escaped the catastrophe, and endured the pain and saluted: "My lord's bad memory, those people were killed by gangsters when we passed through Fan County. ”

Feng Pu was unusual, and said sharply: "Bold Wuzhi, when he is dying, he dares to talk nonsense!" I went to Fan County and asked about the county order, there have been no strongmen in Fan County recently, who are the gangsters you have encountered? ”

Cao Cao frowned, then sighed, and pretended to be helpless: "Lord Feng, villains are villains, how do I know who they are?" They're going to kill me, will they tell me who it is? ”

"Fan County is so close to Liangshan, even if there are rogues, it is possible, and it is normal that no one sees it at night."

Feng Pu carefully inspected the scene, and naturally found some clues: "Oh? Is it? Although you set fire to the scene, you neglected one thing. You explain to me why the bones of the seven people are intact? If it is really a fight with the bad guys to the death, it is common to break the muscles and bones. ”

Cao Cao continued to quibble: "My lord, the situation was urgent that day, and Wang Meng and I fought to escape with him, as for how they died, I really don't know. ”

Although Cao Cao's answer was seamless, Feng Pu immediately raised another question: "I checked the figures of several people, each with tall bones, obviously born as a burly person. Why are there only seven corpses at the scene, and can't a well-trained soldier kill even a single robber? ”

Or did someone kill them while they were asleep? If that's the case, I guess the perpetrator is Wu Song, right? ”

"In order to destroy the corpses and destroy the traces, you chose to set fire to the mountain, yes or no?"

Cao Cao looked at Feng Pu in surprise, and secretly admired in his heart: he didn't expect Feng Pu to be so powerful, and he could deduce what happened that night based on these clues.

Cao Cao did not leak his voice and continued to deny it: "The conjecture of the adults is really powerful, but they really died at the hands of thieves. ”

Feng Pu smiled slightly, didn't care, turned around and ordered: "Even if you are clever and deny it in every way, it can't hide the truth." ”

"Interrogate Wu Song!"
