Chapter Twenty-Three: The Prisoner Robbery (Second Watch)
Dali Temple is heavily guarded, but for Mu Jiu and Wei Xue, the obstruction is not big, after all, they are alone, and it is still easy to lurk.
Turning into the storage room of Dali Temple, the purpose of entering is a volume of files, and the house behind is the evidence room, probably because Xiao Xiantang's 'murderer' Lan You has confessed, and the evidence is not so important, it is not locked, and it is directly placed on the table.
Mu Jiu got the bloody clothes, and in addition to the smell of blood, the bloody clothes smelled of fat powder and wine, and he didn't see any clues when he turned over and over.
That's not a problem.
Although Mu Jiu can conclude that the person was not killed by Lan You, but now that Lan You personally admitted that he killed someone, if he couldn't find the real murderer, the Xiao family would definitely not let Lan You go, even if he killed her by mistake, he would kill her to vent his anger.
And right now, except for the wounds on Xiao Xiantang's body, there is no evidence at all to prove that it was not Lan You's murder.
Leaving Dali Temple, Weixue asked: Master, what should I do now?
Mu Jiu thought about it, asked Wei Xue to come over, said a few words to her, and then the two went back.
That's ...... Finished?
Dongyue didn't sleep all the time, so he followed Xiao Junshu in the house and waited for the news to come over there, thinking that Mu Jiu would do something big, but after going to Dali Temple for a turn, he came back to wash and sleep.
Of course, going to the autopsy and then visiting Dali Temple at night is also a big deal to some extent, but I always feel that this anticlimactic is not quite in line with Miss Mu's style.
After Mu Jiu came back, he washed up, and Xiao Qingyu also boiled a large pot of grapefruit water, and poured her head on her head when Mu Jiu was just about to step into the door, if she didn't know that this matter was ordered by Weiyu, Mu Jiu would definitely think that it was Xiao Qingyu, this girl's scalp was itchy, and she wanted to be beaten.
From night to dawn, early the next morning, Mu Jiu rarely got up early without sleeping lazily, and did not wear the blue and white dress he liked in the past, but a dark brocade dress, his hair stood up with a silver crown, and he was dressed as a man.
Mu Jiu didn't bring anyone, and went to the West Gate alone.
Simon was the main killer, whether he led the army out on the expedition or executed the prisoner, as long as he would die, he would go out through this door.
Mu Jiu thought that he had come quite early, but he didn't expect that the street was already full of people.
In addition to the early morning vendors, there were also many ordinary people, who did not come so early to buy things, but to see the executions.
Although it is a bloody thing like murder, as long as it doesn't fall on you, it seems that you can watch it as a hilarious.
Mu Jiu found a place by the window, asked for a pot of tea, and listened to the discussions of the people around her, it was nothing more than that Lan You deserved it, she was a prostitute and a woman who dared to murder the eldest son of the Xiao family, and she was innocent of death, and she was beheaded to show her to the public.
Mu Jiu could hear that there was no anger, which was ridiculous.
These people don't know the truth and don't know the inside story, but they talk eloquently, full of righteous indignation, and talk wildly, thinking that they have a lot of reason, it's just ...... Absurd.
As soon as noon arrived, the torture car came out of the prison and walked all the way to the West City Gate, Mu Jiu saw the torture car at a glance, Lan You was locked inside, with shackles on her body, she was lying in the torture car, motionless.
Mu Jiu put down the cup violently, Lan You's body was covered with blood, and the people in the prison tortured her.
The Xiao family died of their son-in-law, only letting Lan You pay for his life, the Xiao family is afraid that it will be difficult to eliminate their resentment, last night they must have let the people in the prison beat Lan You to vent their anger, maybe they will do it themselves, after all, Lan You is just a lowly prostitute, even if they beat Lan You to death, I am afraid they will not blame them obediently.
The revenge of killing their sons, no matter how excessive they are to the enemy, it is reasonable.
Hell it makes sense.
Mu Jiu supported her forehead, she miscalculated, she only thought about finding evidence for Lan You last night that could overturn the case, but she didn't expect Lan You to be treated like this in the prison.
The carriage slowly exited the west gate, where there was a special execution platform.
Seeing that the torture car was about to arrive, suddenly several arrows broke through the air.
"Whoosh ......"
Several jailers fell in response, and the people who had been watching the excitement instantly became a mess: "Someone robbed the law field, run away, kill someone......."
People are like this, when they kill others, they look at the excitement, and once they endanger themselves, they panic.
"Come on, protect the prisoner car, and never let the prisoner be hijacked."
Several cloth-clad men rushed out of the crowd, masked, and slashed directly at the prisoner cart, instantly fighting with the jailers and guards.
When the riot started, a few more black-clothed people jumped out of the teahouse opposite and went straight to the prisoner car.
There are more than a dozen people in total, and their martial arts are good, but the number is too small, and they are obviously outnumbered compared to the soldiers in the law field.
Mu Jiu's gaze fell on a masked man in black, and this back seemed a little familiar.
However, in addition to her, there are people who rob the law field for Lan, could it be which of her blue-faced confidantes? It's definitely true love.
"The men from the Terracotta Division are here."
In the distance, a group of people came over, red tasseled iron armor, and the momentum was mighty.
Mu Jiu looked at the battlefield below, these dozen or so people who robbed the law field had very high martial arts, but there were also masters of martial arts among the jailers in the prison, and the man in black led by him fought with a jailer leader, although the man in black had the upper hand, but it would take some time to win, but when the people from the Soldiers and Horses Division came around, they were the turtles in the urn.
Raising his hand to take the power on the table and put it on, it was enough to see a little, and he jumped down from the window.
Mu Jiuyun was full of true qi, and slapped the edge of the torture car with a heavy palm, and one side of the torture car was directly hit by her, and she scooped up Lan You as soon as she landed on her toes, removed the shackles on her body in three or two, hugged her, and flew up directly with light power.
The horse ran out of a corner, she carried Lan Youfei and landed on the horse's back, and immediately rode the horse out of the city.
Mu Jiu's series of speeds came so suddenly that even the people who robbed the law field were stunned.
"Young Master......"
"Withdraw!"
The group was also prepared, and it was not difficult to retreat, even if the people of the Terracotta Division wanted to catch up, it was not so easy.
Mu Jiu took Lan You all the way to run wildly for half an hour, and then stopped in a deserted wood, hugged Lan You and dismounted and put down, such a big movement, she didn't react at all, only to find that she was already angry, and no matter how bumpy it was, she really had to return to the west.
"My eldest sister, don't make trouble, I didn't rescue you to collect your body."
Mu Jiu hurriedly took out a ginseng pill and swallowed it for her, this was a pill made of thousand-year-old ginseng, enough to hang her breath.
Waiting for Lan You to swallow the pill, she saw Lan You's injury, her autumn clothes were stained with blood and few places were clean, Mu Jiu lifted her clothes, and the blur of flesh and blood instantly made her eyes hurt.
"You fool, you actually made yourself like this, and your brain was funny?"
Mu Jiu has wound medicine on his body, but Lan You's injury is a drop in the bucket at all, and it can't be saved at all.
