Chapter 272: The murderer's provocation
Zhao Si is just an ordinary watchman, but the means he showed just now are not at all like ordinary people.
He is definitely a practitioner!!
After killing Zhou Ye, Zhao Si immediately reverted to his previous timid and cowardly appearance: "Big ...... People, just now, the little one is just in a hurry, and he asks the adults for forgiveness. ”
Zhao Ci also discovered Zhao Si's methods, but he didn't point it out.
He pressed the table and said: "Zhao Si, you are justified in defense, but your murderous methods are really vicious, this official will not sentence you to the crime, but you must admit punishment." ”
Zhao Si immediately kowtowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, and the little one will admit the punishment." ”
"If you miss and kill someone, you will be punished with forty rods and dragged down!" Zhao Ci ordered someone to take him away.
"Li Sanpao, there's nothing wrong with you, you can go back."
Li Sanpao returned in a huff.
After they left, Zhao Ci immediately reported to Xiao Wuxin: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Zhao Si is not that simple. ”
He put his thoughts and ideas together, which perfectly matched what Xiao Wuxin thought.
And Zhao Ci learned that Xiao Wuxin had also discovered this, and he couldn't help but admire the emperor in front of him, if it was Xiao Yuanshan, he would have been so frightened that he couldn't give up.
Returning to the inner hall of the Criminal Division, Xiao Wuxin put forward a bolder hypothesis, saying: "Zhou Ye has already confessed, but I feel that there is more than one murderer in the case of the murder of the woman. ”
At least for now, this assumption is too bold, and Zhao Ci does not dare to confirm it.
"Your Majesty, please."
Xiao Wuxin said: "The dead who were killed, their organs were all cut off, what is the purpose of this?" And no relevant organs were found in Zhou Ye's home. ”
"And Zhao Si's methods have also been seen, even a butcher with more than ten years of experience can't be as smooth as him, obviously he is a veteran, he can't kill one."
"On the other hand, Zhou Ye, when he was holding Zhao Si hostage, his methods were so rusty, and the knife wounds on the deceased's body were fast and ruthless, which was the opposite of it."
"In the end, I think this murder is likely to be a conspiracy between the two."
Zhou Ye used it to seduce the deceased, and then Zhao Si killed the killer, and the two worked together.
For two people who have nothing to do with each other?! What are they doing this for? This is also something that Xiao Wuxin can't figure out.
Hearing Xiao Wuxin's analysis, Zhao Ci couldn't help but applaud: "Your Majesty, your analytical ability is breathtaking." ”
Zhao Ci is easy not to boast about as the chief of the punishment, but this time he also has to admire Xiao Wuxin's reasoning ability.
Xiao Yanting on the side said: "What is this, do you remember Cheng Siyi's case back then?" It was cracked by His Majesty, and it only took one night to catch the murderer and find out the Beiliang secret agent. ”
At that time, Zhao Ci was only a minor official in the county, and he had heard a little about this case, but he didn't know much.
Knowing that Xiao Wuxin was the one who solved the case back then, Zhao Ci's admiration for this emperor was even more like surging water, endless.
"It's all in the past." Xiao Wuxin didn't want to flaunt his past deeds, and said to Zhao Ci: "You check if there are similar case files around Jinling." ”
"At the same time, pay close attention to his actions, if Zhao Si is really a murderer, he will never be his first time, nor will it be the last."
Zhao Ci said: "Obey! ”

These days, Zhao Ci has been rummaging through the files of homicide cases, looking for cases similar to this one.
In the vast sea, Zhao Ci searched every day and night, and the emperor lived up to his wishes, and finally found clues by him among the thousands of files.
He couldn't help but applaud: "Your Majesty is really like a god." ”
In the vast file, there are more than a dozen similar cases.
Since the time and place of the cases were in different places, these cases were treated as ordinary vendetta cases and did not cause much turmoil.
But without exception, all of them were women, either women or women who were messing with flowers.
They died in a horrible state, they were disemboweled, and even among the women who were killed, there were pregnant people, even the fetus in the womb, and the cruelty of the methods was terrifying.
Zhao Ci found the change of the murderer from the known case files from rusty to proficient.
At first, the wounds of the deceased were disorderly, and later they were orderly, which shows that the murderer is becoming more and more skilled in killing people.
As the saying goes, there is no way to walk by the river without getting your shoes wet, and the murderer does not succeed every time, and he also has times when he loses.
It is recorded in the file that once when the murderer was committing the crime, someone happened to pass by here and saved the victim, and the victim's oral account was that in the process of tearing, she used a knife to cut the murderer's right wrist.
"The time of the crime was the eighth day of May, less than four months ago." Zhao Ci was calculating the time, "According to the time calculation, the scar on the murderer's wrist should still be there." ”
This clue is very important.
Zhao Ci immediately left the archives of the Criminal Department and went straight to the imperial city to tell Xiao Wuxin about this discovery.
After learning that important clues were found, Xiao Wuxin was very happy and said, "Zhao Ci, you will go to Zhao Si's house with King Zhao, so if he has a scar on his hand, he can be arrested." ”
"Yes."
Zhao Ci nodded yes.
However, when he and King Zhao led the troops to Zhao Si's house, a terrifying scene happened.
Zhao Si was nailed to the wall by four steel nails, his eyes were open, his mouth was open, and a sword pierced his mouth from his mouth.
Zhao Si was killed in an extreme way!!
Written on the wall are four words: "Incompetent Official".
