Lin Ping'an nodded, "There are no mistakes or omissions." ”

The one-eyed middle-aged man waved his hand and asked the jailer to take Lin Ping'an down and bring another prisoner in.

In this way, the one-eyed middle-aged man randomly interrogated five prisoners, and the words he came up with were exactly the same as Lin Ping'an's, proving that no one was telling lies.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the prisoners are in tandem, but it is almost impossible for so many prisoners to be so consistent.

The one-eyed middle-aged man looked at the other officials and smiled, "Everyone, did you find any clues?" ”

The young Jinyi Wei Qianhu spread his hands, his hands were very white and slender, "I came here just to listen and record, investigating cases is not my specialty, so I won't express my opinions, so as not to interfere with your adults' train of thought." ”

The one-eyed middle-aged man bowed slightly, this was exactly what he wanted, he asked a few people's opinions, just to avoid a few people thinking that he was arbitrary, he didn't really want a few people to express any opinions, it was better to be dumb!

The county order looked at the nose and nose, and turned into a wooden man, I can't speak and I can't hear.

The right attendant of the Criminal Department wanted to be silent, but after thinking about it, although he gave up the dominance of the case, he couldn't let all the limelight be given by the Demon Eradication Division, and the Criminal Department didn't want to lose face?

Thinking of this, he coughed twice, "This official will first state his opinion. ”

The one-eyed middle-aged man frowned imperceptibly, you say hanging, you shut up for me!

The right attendant of the Criminal Department sorted out his thoughts.

"First of all, there are two more people in the exile's ranks, one is a tiger demon, and the other is who? Ordinary people will definitely not pretend to be exiles, what is the purpose of the two monsters lurking in? ”

"Secondly, after the tiger demon was forced to appear, he took away the official errand and dozens of prisoners, and then released it back, what is the purpose of the tiger demon's this? Could it be that the Tiger Demon is really just here to ask a few questions? ”

"There is also a prisoner who was taken away by the tiger demon and did not come back, that is, the prisoner next to Lin Ping'an, who is he? Why didn't the tiger demon let him back? ”

"The prisoner next to Lin Ping'an was taken away and didn't come back, but now there are still two hundred and eighteen prisoners in the prison, not one of them is missing, is there another lurker still in this group of prisoners?"

"Finally, there are environmental elements, what is the wonder of the road from Octagonal Pavilion to Linfu County, and why did it pass ten years overnight?"

He was full of joy, and after speaking in one breath, he found out all the suspicious points.

The one-eyed man felt that what he said was all nonsense, "So what? ”

Are you testing me? The right attendant of the Criminal Department was a little unhappy, "I think we can start from four directions." ”

"The first household registration is to check all the household registration information of the 218 prisoners in the prison to find out who the prisoner who was taken away and did not come back, and the person whose household registration information is incorrect must be another lurker."

"Second, the tiger demon, as long as you catch that tiger demon, all problems will be solved."

"The third punishment, the tiger demon has a secret method of tiger puppetry, which can control the puppeteer, and the officials and dozens of prisoners who were taken away and released back by the tiger demon should be punished heavily, and see if there are any puppeteers."

"The fourth is to search the mountains, and carefully search the mountains and forests on the road from the Octagonal Pavilion to Linfu County to look for clues."

After listening to this, the one-middle-aged man nodded, although there are no bright spots in the direction of the investigation that the right attendant said, it is also decent, it seems that the criminal department is not all rice buckets, there are still two brushes.

The one-eyed middle-aged man handed the household registration register to the Linfu County Order, "Lord County Commander, please check the household registration information of the two hundred and eighteen prisoners in the prison to see whose household registration information is incorrect. ”

"Yes, the lower official will do it immediately."

The prefectural commander respectfully took the household register with both hands and left in a hurry.

The one-eyed middle-aged man looked at the right waiter of the Criminal Department, "Lord Shilang, please issue an official document on sea fishing in the name of the Criminal Department, and the tiger demon is wanted, the key area is the surrounding counties, and it should not have gone far." ”

Aren't you very capable? It's not time for me to do something! The right attendant of the Criminal Department said lightly, "This official knows what to do, and he doesn't need you to teach him." ”

The one-eyed middle-aged man didn't have time to be angry with him, and looked at the young Jinyi Wei Qianhu, "Jinyiwei's secret agents are all over the world, and they are careful and good at searching. ”

"Okay."

The young Jinyi Wei Qianhu chuckled, folded his arms, and turned to leave.

Dao Gu, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke, her voice was ethereal, like a voice from outside the sky, "The ancestor has devoted himself to studying the Dao fruit of the years for many years, and if he finds traces related to the years, he hopes to tell the poor Dao." ”

The young Jinyi guard was stunned for a moment, stopped, and smiled back, "No problem." ”

The other people also have strange eyes, and they feel strange because they are so young and beautiful that they are so young and beautiful that they have no makeup, picturesque eyebrows and eyes, and are so beautiful that they call themselves poor.

Zheng Yan'er thought to herself: How sad it should be for a stinky man in the world.

The jailers brought tables and stools and brought in tea.

A few people drank tea, no one spoke, thinking about things silently, Dao Gu didn't drink tea, holding the floating dust in her hand, twisting the trick with one hand, and sitting quietly.

After a short time, the county order hurriedly returned, "The household registration has been checked clearly, and all the two hundred and eighteen prisoners are correct, and in addition, the thirty-six prisoners who were taken away by the tiger demon and released back have been held in solitary confinement." ”

The one-middle-aged man and the right attendant of the criminal department glanced at each other, and then looked away with disgust, and the two of them instantly understood that the prisoner who was taken away by the tiger demon and did not come back was another lurker!

That is the prisoner next to Lin Ping'an!

The one-middle-aged man asked the jailer to bring Lin Ping'an out again, and gave Lin Ping'an a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, "Roughly draw the appearance of the prisoner next to you." ”

Lin Ping'an held the sleeve of his right hand with his left hand, held a pen in his right hand, and dipped it in ink.

Looking at his standardized way of holding the pen, the one-eyed middle-aged man's eyes lit up, and he suddenly said, "Have you ever studied?" ”

Lin Ping'an's hand stiffened, and he said shyly, "I have studied in a private school in the village for a few years." ”

The one-eyed middle-aged man looked at him like a torch, "How many years specifically." ”

Lin Ping'an hesitated, "Three...... Three years. ”

"If I'm not mistaken, your household registration doesn't say that you went to school."

The one-middle-aged man smiled playfully, opened the household registration register returned by the county order, turned to the page of Lin Ping'an, and tapped his fingers.

Lin Ping'an said, "I heard that some official documents of the imperial court occasionally make mistakes, and it is common for clerks who register household registration to write mistakes and omissions. ”

"Really?"

The one-eyed middle-aged man smiled brightly, "I'll check." ”

Lin Ping'an was silent, the brush drew on the paper, drawing a head and a body in shackles, plus a "criminal" suit, but when it came to the facial features, he slowly stopped, his brows furrowed, no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't think of it.

He could only put the brush back on the pen holder, "I can't remember what he looked like." ”

"Can't remember?"

The one-eyed middle-aged man was puzzled.

The right attendant of the Criminal Department sneered, "That prisoner is by your side, and you also said when you interrogated you just now, he walked with you along the way, and you also chatted a lot, how could you not remember clearly?" According to this official, you are his accomplice, and you are shielding him! ”

"Someone!"

The right attendant of the Criminal Department looked at the jailer, "Torture!" ”

The jailer immediately took the iron stabbing whip and beat Lin Ping'an fiercely.

"Bang" "Bang" ...... The prisoner's uniform was torn, the skin was open, and Lin Ping'an couldn't help screaming.

After about ten lashes, seeing that Lin Ping'an couldn't bear it, the one-eyed middle-aged man raised his hand and called it to stop.

The right attendant of the Criminal Department frowned, "Why did you stop?" Eliminating demons is the duty of your demon eradication division, this is the punishment of the prisoner, our criminal department is professional, and all the torture tools in this prison will be used for him, and the official will not believe him and say it. ”

The one-eyed middle-aged man shook his head slightly, "He has nothing to do with that prisoner, if he is an accomplice, there is no need for him to tell the official that the prisoner did not come back, and there is no need to tell us, as long as he doesn't say it, no one knows who the prisoner who has not come back is." ”

The right attendant of the Criminal Department was silent for a moment and said, "Then why didn't he refuse to draw the prisoner's appearance?" ”

The one-eyed middle-aged man said, "There are many possibilities, maybe the prisoner used some secret method to make Lin Ping'an unable to remember his appearance; Maybe that prisoner erased a little memory of Lin Ping'an. ”

The one-eyed middle-aged man asked the jailer to take Lin Ping'an down and asked the jailer to apply some medicine.

Immediately afterwards, the one-eyed man asked the county magistrate to take him to the thirty-six prisoners, and he raised his hand to lift the one-eyepiece a little, revealing his other eye, and swept it over the thirty-six prisoners one by one.

The corners of the right attendant of the criminal department twitched, thinking that he was blind in one eye, but he didn't expect that he was hiding.

Zheng Yan'er subconsciously raised her hand to touch her eyes, and found that she was not wearing an eye patch, so she had to give up.

"After my delusional eye's observation, these thirty-six prisoners are all ordinary people, and there are no tiger puppets of the tiger demon mixed in."

"Of course, it may also be that the Tiger Demon is too high-level, and its Tiger Warrior Secret Method has hidden from my delusional eyes."

"It's very unlikely, almost non-existent."

"I've been in the Demon Slayer Division for many years, and I've never met a Tiger Demon with a higher rank than me."

One-eyed middle-aged man is very confident.

To be on the safe side, he went to the area where the other exiles were being held, and with the Eye of Delusion, he observed all the prisoners, and finally concluded that there was nothing wrong with the prisoners.

"Only that inspector and sixteen officials have not been interrogated, if I were that tiger demon, I would definitely not choose the prisoner to use the tiger secret method, the first choice is the inspector."

The one-eyed man put the one-eyepiece back on, opened the first page of the household register, and looked at the inspector's information, "Go and call the inspector for questioning." ”
