Chapter 20: The Next Victim
The imperial court spent a lot of money to arrest the murderer of Du Song, but there was no portrait on the notice, and even the name of the murderer was unknown.
Qin Huan had only seen Du Song last night, and he had an escort by his side, but he disappeared overnight.
The people were talking, and one of the eldest ladies was surrounded by many people, and she pricked up her ears.
"This man must have done evil, and the one who died is called a miserable one, I went into the city this morning to sell vegetables, and before I reached the gate of the city, I saw a bloody thing hanging from a tree.
When I got closer, I saw that it was actually a person, who was picked up naked and floating in the air, and the thing below was gone. ”
The people sighed, and some people echoed, "I heard that the old man who set himself on fire before had a daughter in the family, and he was also hanged." ”
"Is that the old man cursed him?"
"Nine times out of ten, then he deserves to die, the curse won't kill the wrong person!"
The people were immediately indignant.
The people who died strangely and tragically in the past six months, each of them is evil, if they don't do evil, they will not be cursed, and no one will sympathize with them.
Qin Huan's eyelashes moved slightly.
If Du Song really has evil deeds, then he will die as he deserves, but there is no curse in this world, only man-made.
If you give your life to take revenge, the wicked people in the world have long been extinct, so many revenge people who have no way to die in other places, they are not only willing to give their lives, even if they fall into the boundless hell after death, they are also willing to eat.
But she knows very well that when people die, everything is gone.
The so-called curse must have a conspiracy behind it.
If she can find out about this matter, she can not only find out the truth, but also help Yunshuang become the deputy envoy of the Supervision Department.
She pushed through the crowd and asked the lady, "Lady, did you notice anything unusual about the death of the man on the notice?" ”
"Unusual?" The vegetable seller thought about it.
"By the way, that person's expression is very distorted, his eyes are open, and his mouth is very wide, as if he has seen something terrifying, it must be a Rakshasa ghost asking for his life."
The people discussed it one after another.
Qin Huan turned around and saw that "Shi Beize" was also listening, she looked at him, "Your good brother is dead, you don't seem to be sad." ”
"Fox friends and dog friends, it's not that deep." Shi Beiyan said lightly.
"He said last night that you gave him a woman, and that woman was the daughter of an old man who set himself on fire." She used an affirmative sentence.
Shi Beize was indeed with Du Song on the day of the hunt, maybe after he left, Du Song did something.
Shi Beiyan's eyes lowered, "We met a medicine picker when we were hunting outside the city, but I didn't embarrass her. ”
A light flashed in Qin Huan's mind, and he hurriedly asked, "Who else is with you?" ”
Shi Beiyan said a few names, among which was Sikong He.
Qin Huan's face was light and cold, "No wonder he begged God to worship Buddha!" ”
Shi Yi and others have found out the situation of Lao Han's family today, in addition to Lao Han and his daughter, Lao Han's wife also set herself on fire and died.
This family, all gone.
Qin Huan clenched his fists, and the joints on the back of his hands tapped on the door of his head.
After a while, she re-received the moss flower waist card and returned to King Ning's mansion.
She came directly to Sikong He's courtyard, the charms that had been pasted in his courtyard had been torn off, and the smell of various foods came from the house, and Sikong He was singing a little song while tasting the food.
She leaned against the wall outside the courtyard, watching the situation in the house, it seemed that he was in a good mood, thinking that Du Song was dead, and the curse would not be his turn.
She walked straight to Sikong He's house.
Sikong He's light was blocked, and when he looked up, he saw that it was Qin Huan, and his good mood was ruined by her, "Who should this son be, what are you doing here?" ”
Qin Huan slapped the moss flower waist card on the table, "Today, the Imperial Prison Department received a tricky case, the murderer stripped the victim's body naked and hung him on a tree. ”
Sikong He's eyes dodged, and he looked down and saw the waist card of the Imperial Prison Division, and said angrily, "Then you go and catch it." He had already learned that Qin Huan had gone to the Imperial Prison Department to take up his post.
Qin Huan hooked his lips and smiled, "That's right, the murderer must be caught, but the next victim must also be protected." ”
She sat down across from Sikong He, "There is a note under the tree where Du Song died, on which are the names of seven people written in blood, and your name is second. ”
Sikong He was stunned.
Qin Huan handed him the note he had prepared in advance.
Sikong He's hands trembled a little, he stared at the blood words on it, Du Song's two words were crossed, and the next one was him.
"Curse...... Curse! He threw the note out in fright, "No way, curse only one person at a time." ”
"It's true that one life can only be exchanged for another, but we went to check, and the old man's wife was also dead, and she died by self-immolation."
Qin Huan stared at Sikong He's expression, and saw that his face was like dirt, and his mouth trembled, "It's not me, it has nothing to do with me, why am I in the second!" ”
"Who can know the meaning of the Rakshasa ghost, maybe it's your sinful karma."
"I didn't! It was Du Song who got the woman, and I didn't participate at all! "Sikong is so panicked, he can't hide anything.
Qin Huan's eyes gradually oozed a chill, but his tone was fluttering, "Who do you think can believe this?" ”
Sikong He's body also trembled, his face was full of sweat, he paced in fear, and suddenly saw the waist card on the table, as if he had found a savior, and hurriedly opened his mouth to defend.
"At that time, Beize was also there, it was the woman he molested first, I saw that the woman looked good, so I just scared it, I was the prince of Ning Wang, what woman can't get, there is no need to use force!"
"But on the blood note, there is your name." Qin Huan continued to probe.
"It's Du Song! Shi Beize's soft egg didn't dare to do anything, Du Song separated from him, and let us follow the woman to her house, when we drank some wine...... "Sikong He sweat beads rolled down."
"Go on!"
"I ...... I didn't want to, I drank too much at the time, I couldn't get hard at all, and I wouldn't use force on people, I kept getting drunk and fell to the ground, and then Du Song shook me awake, and I saw the woman...... They took turns getting it. ”
Sikong He lowered his head and hid something.
Qin Huan was already angry and impatient, "What else!" ”
Sikong He gritted his teeth, "And her mother, Du Song put them together." ”
Qin Huan closed his eyes heavily, took a deep breath for a long time, and then suppressed some anger.
Sikong He saw her open her eyes, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Sister, you have to save me, you are in the Imperial Prison Division, you put me in it, the Imperial Prison Division is impregnable, I can only survive by going to the Imperial Prison Division." ”
Qin Huan looked at him and said word by word, "You should go to the Imperial Prison Division, but not to survive." ”
Du Song is innocent of death, but there are other people who should also pay the price!
Sikong He is a witness.
Qin Huan took Sikong He to the Imperial Prison Division, and as soon as her carriage stopped, four other carriages drove quickly on the opposite side.
The people in the carriage hurriedly walked down, and when Sikong saw those people, his teeth rattled, and he immediately clenched his fists and jumped out of the carriage.
