Chapter 19: The Prisoner's Dilemma

"What?!"

Chen Niangzi exclaimed, the psychological defense line had been completely broken.

Ye Feng stood beside Mrs. Chen, looking at her quietly, there was no fierce interrogation in the whole process, nor did there be any fierce threats, but the more calm it was, the more it made Mrs. Chen's heart furious.

Seeing that Mrs. Chen didn't speak, Ye Feng smiled faintly: "You can not say anything, but you must not think that the head catchers of the county government are all eating dry rice." What you think is a seamless plan is full of holes. ”

"According to our investigation, Hu San has been addicted to gambling in recent years, but his luck is so bad that he will lose every time he gambles, and he owes a lot of gambling debts. But the strange thing is that it doesn't take long for him to suddenly have the ability to pay off all the arrears at once. If you think about it, where did he, as a boatman who makes a living by supporting boats, get the money to gamble? Where does the money come from? ”

In the past year, Chen Qi has frequently been in and out of a local green building, and met a 16-year-old Qingqi Jingjing, and the two of them have a very good relationship. Moreover, Chen Qi is still discussing with the old mother of Qinglou about redeeming Jingjing, and seems to be ready to marry and go home to be a child. ”

"We found Chen Qi's body in the river, and according to the results of the autopsy, Chen Qi was drowned, but there was an obvious blunt force wound to the back of his head. Although it is also possible that this blunt force injury was caused by hitting the rock after drowning, after our detailed examination, it was found that Chen Qi's body did not have obvious drowning spasms. ”

"Because in the process of drowning, there will be fierce struggles and convulsions, vigorous muscle movement, rapid loss of energy, and obvious drowning spasms. At the same time, his hands instinctively grasp the objects around him, such as the aquatic plants and the rocks on the shore. But Chen Qi's hands were not muddy and sandy, and the skin on his body was not injured by collision. The combination of all the circumstances can only show one thing, that is, Chen Qi was incapacitated when he fell into the water, and he was in a coma. ”

"Caught up in a careful search of Hu San's boat and found a wooden plank, which matched the wound on the back of Chen Qi's head, and there were still traces of blood on the board that had not been cleaned."

Ye Feng's words had a strong impact on Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen's appearance gradually became sluggish, she never expected that there would be so many flaws in the carefully planned things.

A sense of panic quickly swept through every cell in her body, and invisibly, it was as if a beam of light enveloped her, leaving her with nowhere to hide.

"Now that the human and material evidence are here, what else do you have to say?"

The corners of Chen Niangzi's mouth twitched slightly, and she still didn't say a word.

Ye Feng sneered, as long as he broke Chen Niangzi's psychological defense, the next thing would be easy.

Moreover, Hu San confessed that you had been alone for a long time, unwilling to be lonely, and took the initiative to seduce Hu San. He didn't want to continue to entangle with you, but you threatened him with misappropriating the Chen family's money to help him pay off his gambling debts. By the way, Hu San also said that he is willing to take out five hundred taels of silver to dredge up the relationship between the upper and lower levels, and put all the blame on you. ”

The more Chen Niangzi listened, the more frightened and desperate she became, after learning that Hu San had confessed everything and put all the blame on herself. In the next second, she slipped off the chair and sat directly on the ground, trembling uncontrollably.

Ye Feng squatted in front of Mrs. Chen, watching her face gradually turn pale: "I believe that no one knows better than you, what kind of person Hu San is, right?" ”

What kind of person Hu San is, Ye Feng doesn't know, and he doesn't want to know.

But Ye Feng knew that the relationship between Hu San and Chen Niangzi maintained by desire was not solid.

Whether it is cooperation or betrayal depends on whether the interests are big enough.

"But ......"

Ye Feng wanted to speak and stopped, and said quietly: "Zhou County's order is honest and fair, and he doesn't believe Hu San's one-sided words, so he ordered us to come and inquire about the situation." As long as you confess everything and tell the truth, Zhou County's order promises to exempt you from capital crimes. This is your last chance, so make sure you take it. ”

Chen Niangzi pondered for a moment, slowly raised her head, with tears in her eyes, as if grasping a life-saving straw, and choked up: "Really? ”

Ye Feng nodded vigorously: "Seriously." ”

Seeing that Chen Niangzi had a frank idea, he hurriedly gave Wu Teng beside him a look and motioned him to hurry up and record.

Mrs. Chen took a deep breath and said the whole thing one by one.

Everything is not different from what Ye Feng analyzed, but it is more detailed.

Chen Qi has been married to her for ten years, has been childless, and no one inherits the huge family business, which has always been a problem for Chen Qi. Chen Qi had long had the idea of remarrying his wife, but he was worried that the family scandal would be ridiculed if it was spread, so he dragged it out until now.

For so long, the husband and wife status of the two has long been in name only, and Chen Qi has been in and out of the Qinglou frequently and does not return home at night.

At the same time, Mrs. Chen stayed alone in the empty room, and was lonely, so she committed adultery with the boatman.

A year ago, Chen Qi got acquainted with Jingjing, a Qing man, and once again came up with the idea of divulging his wife and continuing the string, and at the same time began to prepare to redeem Jingjing.

Mrs. Chen was worried that Chen Qi would divorce herself immediately after marrying Jingjing, and at that time, she would not be able to get a penny of the Chen family's property.

So, evil was born to the guts, and Chen Niangzi and the boatman Hu San planned to murder Chen Qi, and finally reported Chen Qi's disappearance to the official.

After making the record, Chen Niangzi signed the testimony, and then was arrested and quickly shackled, and escorted back to the county office.

At the door of Chen's house, Wu Teng looked at the back of Mrs. Chen being taken away, and breathed a long sigh of relief: "I have been a fast catcher for seven years, a head catcher for five years, and I have never met someone who solves a case by chatting." ”

Ye Feng walked to Wu Teng's side and put his arm on his shoulder: "It's just a small skill of carving insects, by the way, I helped you solve the problem this time, don't forget to treat you, Qiuyue Tower." ”

……

Zhoufu, inner hall.

"Virtuous nephew! You are simply the first detective in the capital! No, no, no, it's Yangning's first detective! ”

After listening to Wu Teng's report, Zhou Xianling was shocked, he held Ye Feng's hand tightly, and personally served tea to Ye Feng.

Ye Feng knew Zhou County's character, but his performance today really made Ye Feng a little embarrassed: "Uncle, I have won the award, and I am also ......"

"Virtuous nephew! You are such a genius, I have watched you grow up, since I was a child, I saw you as a rich and noble person, and you will definitely ...... in the future."

Ye Feng smiled all over his face, waved his hand, stood up and helped the excited Zhou Xianling to sit down: "Uncle, don't be like this, I can't accept it for a while." ”

Zhou Xianling also knew that he was a little too excited and a little out of shape, so he hurriedly took a sip of tea.

He calmed down for a while, and suddenly asked, "Virtuous nephew, although Hu San and Chen Niangzi have confessed, I still don't know something. How did you get to chat with Mrs. Chen and ask her to confess? How did you chat with Hu San and let Hu San confess? The two of them are obviously grasshoppers on the same rope, why did they suddenly start biting each other? ”

Ye Feng looked at Zhou Xianling's eyes full of curiosity, and said lightly: "Prisoner's dilemma, in the case of asymmetrical information, betrayal is often easier than cooperation. ”
