Listening to Ding Xie's words, all the men present gasped. I also felt a chill hit my spine.

There was nothing to say, Ding Xie and her concubine were punished together, and they were all put in prison, ready to be executed after the beginning of the autumn.

After dealing with this case, Tang Lu was puzzled by something, so he asked the servant: "This woman, Ding Xie's crime is peculiar, her skills are superior, it seems that she has been trained, or she is instructed by a master, how did she come up with this clever trick, she can not only kill people, but also leave no clues, so that experienced servants have nowhere to start, it is really amazing!" How did you come up with the idea to check Ding Si's nose? ”

"Oh, my lord, this is the suggestion of the little one's wife, not the little one. Because the small one did not find out the cause of death, it was difficult to sleep and eat, and it was seen by his wife, she couldn't bear it, so she put forward her suggestion, the little one thought she was joking, the woman's opinion, the hair is long and the knowledge is short, it should be nothing, however, she repeatedly emphasized to see the nose, and the small one went to see it with the attitude of trying it out, and after reading it, I found that the words of the cheap are really right, it seems that in the future, we must be better to the cheap, and what she said should also be listened to. "Said the truth.

"Okay, it turns out that you married a talented woman, and the official also wants to see and understand, I don't know if it's okay?"

"Of course, this is no problem, she has not gone out since she married the little one, I don't know what she thinks, I need the little one to go back and talk to her well." Nonsense.

"You say that the county order wants to reward her, that she has made meritorious contributions to solving the case and should be rewarded, and the county order needs to reward her in person. In this way, she will definitely agree to come. Tang Lu said.

"Okay, the little one will go back and tell her."

"I hope she can agree to come, the official really wants to understand the situation, learn more, and gain a long insight." Tang Lu said.

"The adults are humble, they have learned five cars, and they feel that there is no end to learning, which is really admirable!" Nonsense.

"Go, go, don't compliment, if you hear too many compliments, you will become stupid." Tang Lu said.

He said goodbye, left the county office, and then went home.

"How? Has the case been solved? ”

He wanted to say it out, but he was afraid that his wife would be proud and proud, so he pretended to say, "No, my nose has been checked, and there is nothing abnormal." ”

"Really? Can't you? Are you sure you have your nose checked? The wife asked.

"Indeed, I definitely checked my nose, and more than once."

"That's not right."

Looking at his wife like that, he smiled and said, "Guessed right!" ”

"What did you guess?"

"It's a case solved! Sure enough, there were two iron nails stuck in his nose. Ding Si was nailed to death. "Said the truth.

"I'll just say, this should be the way to die. When you start to come back, I really believe it, I think it's not this way to die, you still know how to be humorous! ”

"That is, this time to solve the case, you have made a great contribution, the county order asked me, I told you your suggestion, Tang county order said to meet you, and to give you a reward. I don't know if you'd like to claim the prize? "I asked.

"You know this, since I married you, I have not stepped out of the door, and I have become a lady of everyone, and I am in the boudoir or kitchen all day long, and I don't go anywhere, but this is the reward for the county order to invite you to meet, I guess you are not good at dismissing the face of the county order, I have already agreed, and then come back and tell me, right?"

"Yes, I made the decision for you first, but in the end, it is your decision whether to go or not." Nonsense.

"Go, of course go, you can't lose face, besides, the county order has a reward, if you don't go, you won't, you won't, if you go, you will receive a reward, why not? Let's go, let's go now. ”

"That's what you said, don't blame me then!"

"Don't blame, don't blame, why do you blame?"

The two happily went to the county office and saw Tang Lu, Tang Lu looked at his wife, looked at it and saw that she was uncomfortable all over her body, as if she was hairy. But it can't have a seizure. Tang Lu had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and looked at Qi Zuo again, but he didn't know what Tang Lu meant, so he could only remain silent. After a while, to break the silence, it is better to start with Tang Lu.

Tang Lu asked with a smile: "How many years have you been married to a servant?" ”

"Adult, the younger one has been married to the servant for two or three years."

"It's not been a long time, how are you feeling?"

"My lord, the relationship is good, we are a halfway couple, but not a dew couple, all these years have been love, mutual respect, mutual support, tacit understanding, life is happy, although not as rich and noble as the family, but, it is also sweeter, because the desire is not big, small wealth is peace." Said the wife.

"Is your ex-husband still around?" Tang Lu asked.

"Lord Qiyu, my ex-husband has passed away. It was precisely because of her ex-husband's illness that the daughter remarried to the servant. ”

"I see! As long as the relationship between husband and wife is good, they can grow old, but they are afraid that they have different hearts, and it will be difficult to come to an end. The most afraid of change, the most worried about being unfaithful to one's spouse. ”

"Yes, my lord, the folk girl and the maid have been good since they got married. Very emotional. ”

"Then is your ex-husband's name Cai Lu?" Tang Lu asked suddenly.

When the wife heard this, she opened her mouth in surprise and did not close it for a long time.

"Big, big, big, how do you know? The ex-husband's name is Cai Lu. The wife asked.

"Hehe, such a coincidence! The case of Cai Lu's violent death was handled by Jin Shan, and the case could not be solved for a long time, so he invited this official to assist in handling it. But it was not detected, Jin Shan also made a conclusion about the case, and the case was closed according to the general illness and death case, the official was very puzzled, Jin Shan was usually very cautious in handling the case, which was convincing, why did this case have to be closed hastily, it seems that there is a problem here, whether Jin Shan is playing big chess, every step he takes, he has to consider ten steps. That's the master! However, the official has always been suspicious of Cai Lu's death, and when this opportunity appeared, the official suddenly became clear and understood the key to the case. ”

Hearing Tang Lu say this, his wife couldn't sit still, and she was very uneasy in her heart.

Her face was pale, her forehead was sweaty, her nose was closed, she seemed to be obviously nervous, her breathing was short, and she couldn't wait to ask: "My lord, is the modus operandi very similar?" ”

"That's right, the official believes that Cai Lu's death is a violent death, and there are many suspicions, and after investigating for a long time, the cause of death has not been found, which is very similar to Ding Si's death, so the official is convinced that Cai Lu was nailed through the nostrils with an iron nail to the door of the head and died. In other words, Cai Lu did not die of a sudden violent illness, but died of a murder. It was premeditated, not an accidental death. Tang Lu said.

At this time, someone came to visit, and it was Jin Shan.

"Why did Brother Ren visit?" As soon as Tang Lu saw Jin Shan, he asked, and then ordered someone to make tea for Jin Shan.

"Virtuous brother Hugh should be polite. I heard that Brother Xian had solved the case of Ding Si's violent illness and death, so I came to congratulate him, and at the same time, learn from the experience of solving the case, so as not to be confused in the future. Learn from the best practices and avoid fumbling in the dark for years. Jin Shan said.

"It's nothing, it's just that the method of committing the crime is peculiar, and the person who invented this method is really a heinous crime, which is equivalent to teaching others how to commit crimes. It's hateful. Because the modus operandi of the crime was discovered, the magistrate paid special attention to the person who reminded him of the modus operandi, and the result could be reasonably inferred. Like the case of Cai Lu in Deng Cheng last time, it is similar to the Ding Si case, or it is the same, it is better to go and see, it is very experienced here, if you don't dislike it, you will be brought back to Dengcheng by Brother Ren, and the coffin of Cai Lu's body will be opened for autopsy, to see what the cause of Cai Lu's death is, and further measures can be taken. Find the real culprit, crack the case, give an explanation to the family of the deceased, and also make the deceased blind. Tang Lu said.

"Yes! These dead people know how they died, but we don't know, they think we are all stupid, but in fact, we are not stupid, the real stupid people are stupid, they only believe in themselves. Those who only believe in themselves will definitely be closed to the public and do not know the truth, which will cause many cases to be unresolved for a long time and will also be disappointing. Jin Shan said.

"Yes, this time is different, let's learn from the case. Learn crime-solving skills from criminal methods. The process of handling cases can be restored more clearly. Tang Lu said.

"Okay, Brother Xian is right, Brother Fool will take your people to Dengcheng to have a look. Check it out to see if Cai Lu died like Ding Si. Jin Shan said.

"Okay, you go with Lord Jin to conduct an autopsy on Cai Lu, go and return quickly." Tang Lu commanded.

"Okay!" He agreed and followed Jin Shan.

When he arrived at Cai Lu's grave, Jin Shan ordered to open the cemetery and uncover the coffin, the body was already highly decomposed, and when he went down to take a closer look, at the skull and nose bone, it was obvious that there were two rusty iron nails.

He made a record and handed it to Jin Shan, saying: "The method of committing the crime is similar to the Ding Si case, and it is a method of killing. ”

"Understood, thank you for your work, you can go back to your life." Jin Shan said.

He returned to Gucheng County to resume his life.

Tang Lu continued to interrogate his wife and asked, "You are an ordinary woman, how do you know how to kill people by nailing iron nails through your nostrils?" Is there a master to guide you? Or maybe you have personal experience, or you can't come up with this method. This method is too strange to be found in the world. ”

When the wife heard this, she immediately knelt down and said, "The eldest lord spares his life, but the life of the people is miserable!" ”

She began to cry about her experience.

Before she married Zhu Zuo, she was Cai Lu's wife.

Cai Lu is honest by nature, farming, married her, she saw that Cai Lu still had some money, so she took it to gamble, Cai Lu's money was broken into two petals of sweat, and slowly accumulated, but she didn't expect to be gambled by her rhetoric.

I met a gambler in the casino, when she ran out of money, the gambler lent her to continue gambling, who knew that the casino should not have borrowed money to gamble, the more she borrowed money, the more she lost, she couldn't pay back the money, and the gambler said to repay with meat.

As a result, they reached a deal with her and rolled together, and after a long time, there were rumors in the village, Cai Lu was very useless when she heard it, and when she went back, she was told to let her gamble less.

She was furious when she heard this, and she didn't know what the situation was, so she was criticized. This person is really, give a good face, and I don't know what my surname is.

The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, so she scolded him, Cai Lu didn't lose her temper, and when she lost her temper, she had a bull temper, and he couldn't see this, so he "snapped" and slapped her twice.

She was so angry that the door slammed, "Bang-"

Left home and left.

Cai Lu saw that she was gone, and she didn't come out to chase her, so she simply took out the rice wine, which she was usually reluctant to drink, but he drank a jar at once, and as a result, he fell drunk and fell on the bed.

She didn't go anywhere, she went to the gambler's house.

Women are ruthless to their men, and they usually find a good home.

The gambling stick is her next home, and if Cai Lu falls here, there will be a man.

Besides, there were a few alternatives, and as long as she nodded, none of the men who pretended not to fall under her pomegranate skirt.

As soon as the gambling stick heard that his woman had been beaten, and it was Cai Lu, who couldn't beat a single sullen fart with three sticks, he was very angry and rushed to Xingshi to ask for guilt.

Who knew that when he arrived at Cai Lu's house, he was silent, and he was still a little weak-hearted, could it be that Zhuge Kongming's empty city plan couldn't be achieved?

He looked at her, and she said, "Listen! ”

Sure enough, there was a sound of snoring coming from the inside and out, like thunder.

She entered the house and found that it was Cai Lu, with a jar poured next to it, on which were written the words Zaoyang Lutou Di Feng Rice Wine, it seems that Lutou's local rice wine is famous all over the world, and the effect is different.

She was beaten, he didn't know remorse, she ran out of the house, he didn't come to chase, it seems that it was really a break of righteousness, and the husband and wife were unreliable on this day.

She went to the kitchen angrily, found a machete to chop bones, and was about to hack Cai Lu to death, in order to take revenge, and take revenge on the two slaps just now.

She raised her machete and was about to fall, but was snatched by the gambling stick, saying, "Are you crazy?" ”

"If he's not crazy, I'm going to hack him to death!"

"Good things don't take from the busy. You hack him to death, and we're both going to die! ”

"Why?"

"This is obviously hacked to death with a knife, at present, the relationship between the two of us, everyone knows, now, someone must see us come in, and then people die in bed, and the one who was hacked to death is not you me, or both of us have a share. Even if you have a hundred mouths, you can't tell. ”

"So, what then?"

"I have a way!"

"What's the solution?"

"My solution is to stick onions in the pig's nose."

"What is a pig's nose with an onion?"

"If you stick a nail in his nose and go all the way to his head, he will definitely die, and no clever trick can find out the cause of death." The gambler said to the concubine.

"So how?"

"You see, I'll do it first, and you follow along. The first nail made him unable to move, and the second nail made him return to the west to see the king of Hades. ”

"Good! You demonstrate first! She said.

The gambler and concubine found two iron nails, a nail in his left hand and a hammer in his right hand, and inserted the nail into Cai Lu's left nostril.

Then, the gambling stick motioned for her to operate, she was a little timid, and did not dare to step forward, and the gambling stick said: "Quick, hurry, he will come over immediately, you and I will be finished." ”

She just learned the appearance of a gambling stick, holding a nail in one hand, a hammer in the other, a hammer went down, it was not in place, her hands trembled, the gambling stick held her, let her do it again, she fought again, this time it was successful, Cai Lu was completely cool, she could no longer move, and her body gradually became cold and stiff.
