Chapter 28: The Truth

A coincidence can be regarded as a coincidence, but successive coincidences are still considered to be coincidences, only fools.

Xia Jingyun sat on the back of the returning horse, and his face was full of four words: he was preoccupied.

Feng Xiuyun looked at his side face, although Xia Jingyun didn't say it, but she was quite experienced in Gong Dou, and guessed the possible conspiracy story behind it from Fang Cai's question, so she said softly: "But do you still need my help?" ”

Xia Jingyun was awakened by this gentle voice, looking at the female official in the palace with a concerned face, she inexplicably remembered her lofty posture a few days ago, and her heart suddenly felt much lighter.

In just a few days, I have made such great progress, so why be so afraid and worried!

Isn't it just a conspiracy, come on, Lao Tzu soldiers will block it!

It's never easy to be alive.

"What do you ask?" Seeing Xia Jingyun staring at his hair, Feng Xiuyun's heart rippled slightly, and he opened his mouth to urge.

Xia Jingyun came back to his senses, "Please take me to the county office." ”

-----------------

"Lord Feng, Master Xia, we already know about this overseer Niu Er, just now Wu Zhutou has already taken someone to investigate, this Niu Er is also unlucky to meet a bandit who happened to be patrolling outside the city on the way back, and lost his life."

In the county office, the chief bookkeeper took the head catcher and reported the situation to the two, mainly to Feng Xiuyun.

Xia Jingyun naturally didn't believe that it was a thief by chance, thought about it, and said, "The silver taels and saber on his body are still there?" ”

Wu Zhutou is a burly and tall middle-aged man, although he bent down under the weight of power, but in his heart he still looks down on this kind of powerful person who doesn't know anything about criminal names, "The other party is a thief, how can he let these things go." ”

Xia Jingyun was a little embarrassed, don't they all write like this in other books, pretending to be a thief to kill people, and then forgetting to search for the silver tael, and being cracked by the protagonist's wit, why is it not working when he comes here!

So he turned his head to look at Feng Xiuyun, "Can I go and see the corpse?" ”

Wu Zhutou felt a sense of disrespect, I am the head catcher, shouldn't you ask me?

Feng Xiuyun glanced at it, and after confirming that he was serious, he nodded in agreement, and then the master book ordered: "Wu Zhutou, you take Xia Gongzi to take a look." ”

Wu Zhutou: ......

Waiting for Xia Jingyun to follow Wu Zhutou away, Feng Xiuyun, who stayed in the hall and waited with tea, looked at the master who accompanied him with an unsmiling arrogant look, "Do you think this overseer was really killed by a bandit?" ”

The master book hesitated for a moment, and said in a thoughtful tone: "Died outside the city, it was evening, there was no one around, no clues, nowhere to start, not a bandit but also a bandit." ”

Feng Xiuyun glanced at him deeply, "So, is he going to return in vain?" ”

The master secretary owes a debt and does not answer, but the meaning is self-evident.

When leading Xia Jingyun to the morgue, Wu Zhutou couldn't help but speak: "Young Master Xia, do you still know the art of serving?" ”

Xia Jingyun shook his head and casually made a reason, "He has an old relationship with me after all, so let's give him a ride." ”

Wu Zhutou could also hear that Xia Jingyun was talking nonsense, there was an old fart, and he didn't know how the labor camp supervisor did to the laborers, but the other party said so, and he couldn't say anything more.

Just look at it, he can't see any clues, and it is impossible for this kind of person who doesn't know anything about criminal names to find any clues.

He has seen a lot of such self-righteous people.

As she walked, a woman came out of the morgue with tears in her eyes, escorted by two catchers.

Xia Jingyun asked, "This is?" ”

Wu Zhutou said: "It was Niu Er's widow who came to identify the corpse and discuss the matter of receiving the corpse for the funeral. ”

Oh, almost didn't recognize it when I got dressed.

Xia Jingyun recalled the picture he had seen before, pulled the corners of his mouth awkwardly, followed Wu Zhutou, and walked into the morgue.

I don't know if it's the deliberate selection of the site, or if it's really a bit metaphysical, as soon as I enter, I feel a burst of coldness.

Because Concubine De is coming back, the county has increased public security management, and some of the most vicious people have been tried to get them to the labor camp as consumables, and there have been no murders recently, and there is only one body in the morgue.

Wu Zhutou walked to the corpse, suddenly lifted the white cloth covering the corpse, and immediately looked at Xia Jingyun with narrow eyes, wanting to see some panic and fear from him, which is also the evil taste that these people occasionally take revenge on the superiors.

But he was disappointed, Xia Jingyun's expression was unusually calm, and he didn't even blink his eyes much.

has been on the project site for many years, not to mention this, Xia Jingyun has also seen a much more tragic death than this, and he has already developed an extremely strong psychological quality.

He looked carefully, the iconic beard on Niu Er's face was still there, and there were many scars on his body, and he couldn't tell whether it was a knife wound or a sword wound, anyway, it looked bloody, which was in line with the situation of being outnumbered and hacked to death with a knife.

Xia Jingyun silently calculated the time, it was the eighth day since the last time he peeked for him last night, and it was really God's own arrangement!

So who killed him? Is it the one who asked him earlier?

If so, the other party asked him about himself, and then killed him first after he took Wen Kui, what did he want? Is it for fear of exposure?

Did he reveal his "fortune telling" skills to the other party?

Xia Jingyun only felt that the fog was heavy and heavy, and his doubts were one after another, but now that he had only found this point, he could only try to dig down.

Wu Zhutou watched with his arms crossed on the side, joking in his heart, he was such an experienced catcher who watched for a long time and couldn't see the reason, what could the young man in front of him who had not dried up.

"Wu Zhutou, cover it." Xia Jingyun stared at it for a while, sighed, and spoke.

"Young Master Xia, have you seen anything?"

Xia Jingyun pretended not to see the ridicule in Wu Zhutou's eyes, and shook his head, "No." ”

"It's okay, you are Wen Kui, it's normal to be unfamiliar with this criminal name, interlaced like a mountain, where can anything be powerful! Right? ”

Xia Jingyun's heart suddenly moved, "What about the one from the second family of the cow?" ”

Wu Zhutou was shaken by this sharp bend, "I should have left." ”

"Can you trouble Wu Zhutou to help me invite her back?"

......

A moment later, in a side room, Xia Jingyun and Niu Er's widow Niu Wang sat across a table.

Xia Jingyun looked at the woman in front of her, her skin was white and beautiful, and her eyes were charming, and she did have some criminal capital.

Combined with Niu Er's family background and the scene he saw before, Xia Jingyun couldn't help but think of words like [master's task].

"Mrs. Niu, the Si people have passed away, and the festival mourning is changing."

The woman on the other side just cried lowly, intermittently saying thank you, please be sure to avenge your husband, and so on.

"Mrs. Niu, your appeal Yamen should do its best, and now I have a few things I want to ask you."

The woman snorted, sobbing quietly, her shoulders swaying slightly, "Your Excellency, please speak." ”

Xia Jingyun said: "You stretch out your hand first." ”

The woman raised her head instantly, her face turned red, "Your Excellency, ......"

"Don't think about it, I have a secret method for true polygraphs. I won't offend you, you just have to stretch out your hand like a doctor taking the pulse. ”

Xia Jingyun had a straight face, "Besides, do you think I look like I lack a woman?" ”

The woman looked up seriously, and then decisively stretched out her hand, and pulled her sleeves up, revealing her white lotus arms, Xia Jingyun hurriedly stopped.

Wu Zhutou and several catchers stood in the corner of the room, and one catcher said in a very low voice, dissatisfied: "Boss, there is such a trial?" ”

Wu Zhutou also frowned and snorted secretly.

Damn, this kid looks like a human being, and he actually .......

I can't do anything like that! Even if it's a prostitute! Spend some money! Disgusting!

The catchers on the side were also full of righteous indignation, looking at Xia Jingyun with red eyes.

The corpse in the next room has not yet cooled down, and the widow's hand is touched here, this scene is really too stimulating to people's hearts.

Xia Jingyun stretched out his finger and put it on the woman's wrist, pretending to be a judge, "Now, you need to look into my eyes." ”

"Hmm." The woman snorted delicately, and her tears turned into mist, making her already seductive eyes look like a swamp.

Xia Jingyun secretly scolded that he was really not a good person, stabilized his mind, and asked with a match.

At first, the woman was worried that the other party would ask about her ugly affair with her lover, and that she would be exposed under the other party's secret method, but after asking a few words, she was relieved, and the other party seemed to be just a person who didn't understand anything.

For such a question, the catchers on the side became more and more indignant, especially when they saw that the woman was still quite enjoyable, which made them instantly bring into the mind of the bitter master, and their eyes breathed fire.

Xia Jingyun's heart was like water, searching and scraping his stomach to organize the language, trying to make himself appear more serious, and waiting for the time to run out.

Just as he was about to finish asking all the torture lines he had memorized in his mind, a flower suddenly appeared in front of him, and a picture lived up to his expectations.

Niu Wang was standing in the room, about to take off his filial piety clothes, a black shadow jumped into the room, hugged her, she was about to scream, the other party smiled and whispered: "It's me." ”

It turned out to be the adulterer who was beaten miserably last time, he hugged Niu Wang's family, and said while going up and down his hands: "But people, I didn't lie to you, this reckless man has been solved by me, you first keep filial piety, and when the filial piety period is over, I will admit you to the beginning, and then we will live openly and honestly." ”

Niu Wang's family was like a puddle of water soft in his arms, and said in a greasy voice: "In the future, the slave family will be at your disposal......"

"I'll take care of you tonight!"

The picture was interrupted, Xia Jingyun looked at the sad woman in front of him, and a burst of disgust suddenly arose in his heart.

"Let her go!"

A catcher finally couldn't help it, roared angrily, and rushed towards him!
