Chapter Seventy-Eight: Significance
Before coming, Zhang Miao had already told Qin Yu.
The old people who continued to stay in Pingyi Town gathered in a Bodhisattva temple on the west side of the town, while the magistrate stayed in the county office, waiting for someone from Qubu to take these old people away.
Now that he is here, Qin Yu thinks it is better to go and see that Mao Zhixian first.
As for Huzi and Erdan and a few others, they were first asked to go to the Bodhisattva Temple to pick up those old people, and then they would be brought to the yamen of the county government later.
As for Qin Yu and Mo Qiyuan, they were going to dig through the file carefully to see if Wang Yu and the others had missed some more important information before.
In this way, after coming to Pingyi Town, he went directly to the two roads.
Qin Yu and Mo Qiyuan came to the gate of the county office.
Well...
As Zhang Miao said, the door is empty, and the weeds inside can be seen through the cracks in the door.
Push the door inside and walk down the corridor to the backyard.
Qin Yu looked at the empty courtyard, and didn't know if that Mao Zhixian was there, so he had to shout loudly:
"Mao Zhixian, I was commissioned by Governor Yang to come here, are you here?"
As soon as the words fell, in the room facing the arch of the atrium, a man in an official uniform walked out, and when he saw Qin Yu, his eyes were a little happy.
"Did Governor Yang send someone to pick up those old people?"
"Yes, the carriage has already gone to the Bodhisattva Temple, and we are here to see the file on Zhang Xiaomei's case."
"Zhang Xiaomei?" Mao Zhixian muttered strangely, and then said: "I remember that three days ago, there were nine scholars from Liyang, could it be that the two of you are also together?" ”
Qin Yu nodded and said:
"Exactly, but because of something, I didn't come with them. However, this incident is inextricably linked to this little sister, so I plan to take a look at her file again. ”
Seeing this Mao Zhixian's curious gaze, Qin Yu was a little strange.
Could it be that about the body of Zimu Sha in the mass grave, these guys didn't tell Mao Zhixian?
"Mao Zhixian, I heard that that night, several of them went to the mass grave, so did they come back the next day?"
"Speaking of this, the official also wanted to ask you, did they go back to Qubu directly? How's the investigation into the mass graves? ”
Really!
Qin Yu sighed helplessly.
"It hasn't been solved yet, but this Pingyi Town can't continue to stay, and today Mao Zhixian will also go back to Qubu with these old people. Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be danger. ”
"The official stayed here just to take care of these old people, and now that they are leaving, the official will naturally not continue to stay here. Besides, about the situation here, I also have to report it to Governor Yang. ”
"That's great, but before that, can you take the two of us to the dossier vault?"
"Naturally, please come with this official."
Mao Zhixian smiled and nodded, and then led the way to the warehouse where the files were stored.
Qin Yu and Mo Qiyuan followed behind, and after walking for a long time, they came to a house.
"Crunch"
The room was opened, and when he walked inside, Qin Yu saw at a glance that a bookshelf on the right had been touched again.
"The files on Zhang Xiaomei's case are all here, and they have already read them when they came last time, so they should be placed at the top of this floor. The two of them looked slowly, and the official still had to go to the Bodhisattva Temple to see what the situation was there, so he would no longer accompany him here. ”
"If Master Mao has something to do, we can do it here."
Qin Yu said politely.
"Then, the official will go first."
Mao Zhixian nodded, then turned around and left here.
At this time, Mo Qiyuan had already begun to take down the file and began to rummage through it.
Qin Yu naturally wouldn't stand aside stupidly, and also began to help.
However, after being busy for half an hour, he didn't get any useful information, but the things recorded on it were almost no different from what Zhang Miao complained.
Mo Qiyuan sent down the file in his hand and let out a long sigh.
"There's no more useful information, the only thing we can count on now is the news of Huzi and Erdan, if what they say is true...."
Before he finished speaking, Qin Yu preemptively said: "Then as long as you pull that man to Zhang Xiaomei's grave to confess, maybe you can solve this matter satisfactorily, right?" ”
"Not necessarily." Mo Qiyun shook his head slightly. "If it had been done two months ago, there would have been hope, but now it is not necessarily."
"How?" Qin Yu was puzzled.
"Do you know why Zhang Xiaomei only killed young middle-aged men at the beginning and then indiscriminately killed?"
"I don't know."
This is because, at the beginning, she could still maintain a trace of sobriety, knowing that the person she resented was a man, so she would not do anything to the old and weak women and children.
But as the resentment of the child in the womb grew, the blood contaminated became more and more. Her shred of reason was gradually drowned out, and this was the beginning of the indiscriminate killing that followed. ”
"So what's the point of what we're doing now?" Qin Yu was stunned for a moment and asked puzzled.
Mo Qiyuan got up, patted the dust off his body, and said:
"Nature is meaningful, and the only hope now is that the child's biological father can be forgiven by both mother and son."
"Things have come to this point, Mo Daoyou, do you still expect this man to be forgiven?"
Qin Yu said in disbelief, feeling a little strange about Mo Qiyuan's thoughts.
"That's the only way to do it now, besides, we can also take advantage of the fact that the son and mother are wavering in the face of that man, and suddenly make a move, maybe we can be caught off guard!"
"It turns out that you hit this attention."
"Otherwise, do you think that with the current us, we are really sure that we can kill the son and mother?"
"So it's all or nothing?"
Qin Yu's heart jumped and asked tentatively.
"Slaying demons and destroying demons is the mission of my generation of cultivators, even if they pay with their lives for this, why not?"
It seems that life and death have long been put aside, Mo Qiyuan said impassionedly.
Hearing this, Qin Yu shook his head helplessly, you think so. But have you taken into account a few of them, they don't necessarily have such thoughts.
However, it is too early to say these at this time, and the final result is not necessarily that you and others will lose.
"Since we can't find any valuable information here, it's better to meet with Huzi and the others first, and see if we can find his grandmother, only then can we know what that man looks like."
Mo Qiyun nodded, but did not refuse, anyway, the situation here is almost understood.
Leaving the dossier library, the two walked out of the prefect county office, and then walked towards the Bodhisattva Temple.
