Dognose is a habitual thief in Jixiang County, he was exiled to the county seat when he was a child and was taken in by an old beggar.

But this person is very motivated, unwilling to be a beggar for the rest of his life, and when he was young, he found a thief to follow and learn his skills and became a gentleman.

Caught quickly drank a bowl of water and said: "I asked the spotted dog to find out the news, I wanted him to check for me who else in the county has died strangely recently, but it turned out that his face was wrong, hehe, I asked carefully, it turned out that someone under him died like this!"

Speaking of this, he hugged his fist at Wang Qilin with admiration: "Lord Wang is amazing." ”

Wang Qilin ignored his flattery, got up and said, "Where is the piebald dog?"

"I'm waiting at the government office now. Catch said proudly.

"Let's go, go to the government. ”

Xu Da looked at the snow-white, soft, fragrant and warm bun and was anxious: "Huh?"

Wang Qilin said: "Take it away, it's important to investigate the case." ”

Xu Da took the cage drawer and left.

The shopkeeper was anxious: "My lord, you are ...... this"

"Come back to the yamen and cage the drawer. ”

Looking at their distant backs, the out-of-town merchants in the bun shop shook their heads and said, "The local officials have to be corrupt even in the cages? ”

At noon, the yamen rested, but someone was kneeling under the hall.

Wang Qilin walked into the yamen and looked up, and there was a plaque above his head, with four big characters on it:

Fair!

Dou Dachun pointed to the official position of the county magistrate and said, "Lord Wang, please take a seat." ”

Wang Qilin sat on the official chair.

There was a strange and strange feeling in the buttocks.

Refreshing!

He looked at the people in the hall.

There was also a strange and strange feeling in my heart.

Cool in control of power!

In front of him was a shocking wood, but he didn't move the piece of wood, but slapped the demon knife on the table and shouted in a deep voice: "Who is in the hall?"

A sturdy man raised his head tremblingly, revealing a face with vitiligo: "Hui, Hui Yu, the villain, the friends of the rivers and lakes raise love, and call the villain piebald dog......"

"Ask your big name, not your small name!"

Wang Qilin thought that he was not cooperative, so he directly pulled out the demon knife and threw it in front of him.

The spotted dog probe looked at the demon knife, and a faint grimace writhed on the blade.

He can also be regarded as having guts, but he was so scared that he urinated two drops and didn't lose his temper too much: "The adult spares his life, the villain's surname is Gou, the grass sentence Gou, the name is sheng, and the villain's size is called Gou Sheng." ”

Xu Da ate the meat buns and smiled: "How afraid is your father that he won't be able to support you?"

Wang Qilin said: "Raise your head and look at this official, give this official a 1510 explanation, if there is any concealment, if there is a false report, I listen to the heavenly prison has all kinds of means to deal with you!"

"The villain understands. ”

"Then don't say it quickly!"

The spotted dog looked at him and said, "What did you say?"

Wang Qilin's face sank, and Xu Da squatted down to show him the meat buns: "My adults are not scaring you, there are many ways to listen to the heavenly prison, you see, what is this?"

"Meat buns. ”

"This meat bun is two means, one is to kill you, and the other is to starve you! Don't blame me for scaring you, whether you are dying or starving, it doesn't taste good. Take the death as an example, hehe, this meat bun is stuffed into your throat with an iron pestle, and your mouth and throat are rotten before you are killed......"

"My lord, spare my life," the piebald dog said with a sad face, "The villain does not dare to hide it, and will never hide it, but what do you want to know, my lord?"

Wang Qilin chuckled in his heart.

I have no experience in sitting in the hall for the first time.

However, he reacted quickly, and then said sharply: "You are still not honest, the lord of the yamen called you here, and didn't tell you what to tell you to do?"

The spotted dog suddenly said, "Dog nose? I know, I know, the adult is angry, the dog nose, it's like this, it's like I want to think about it, the day before yesterday, yes, the ninth day of the first month, the dog nose died on the ninth day of the first month." ”

"But it's really not a villain, the dog's nose shrunk in his room to sleep, but in the morning there was no one, I asked someone to enter his room to see, he has been killed!"

Wang Qilin immediately asked, "How do you know that someone killed you?"

The spotted dog said blankly: "The body is broken in two, this is not killed by someone, can it be killed by a ghost?"

Wang Qilin asked again: "Then after he died, why didn't you come to the Yamen to report to the official?"

The spotted dog said: "My lord, we are all cheap, if we die, we will wrap them in a mat and throw them to the mass grave, how can we report to the official? And the dog's nose died too miserably, I am afraid that the yamen will handle it as a homicide case, and when the time comes, I will not find the murderer, it is very likely that I am the murderer!"

Wang Qilin looked at Dou Dachun.

Dou Dachun covered his nose and coughed.

That's really his style.

Wang Qilin asked, "If you have nothing to do with his death, this official will administer justice for you." Say, how did he die?"

The spotted dog said: "Cut in half! It's the same as the execution at the entrance of the vegetable market!"

Hearing this, Wang Qilin's heart moved, and he suddenly thought of something:

Scholar Zhao Hang was beheaded.

This is the head of the Owl.

Scholar Song Zhiqing was dug out of his heart and lungs.

This is a caesarean section.

Scholar Qian Yu was dismantled.

It's a car crack.

The habitual thief dog's nose was cut in half.

Well, that's the halving.

In short, it's all torture from the previous dynasty!

Wang Qilin beckoned Xie Toad to step forward and said, "Chu Jiu died a habitual thief, and your previous guesses were all wrong." ”

Xu Da picked his nostrils: "It's still old." ”

Xie Toad was embarrassed but asked: "This is strange, scholar and thief, how can they have a relationship?"

Wang Qilin said the association again and asked, "Are there any demons and monsters related to these tortures?"

Xie Toad frowned and said, "I'll think about it." ”

Wang Qilin continued to ask: "Gou Sheng, this official asked you, what has been the abnormal behavior of this dog's nose recently?"

The piebald dog racked his brains and thought for a while before shaking his head: "No." ”

Wang Qilin's face sank again: "Is it that the official didn't do it, do you think the official is gentle?"

The spotted dog waved his hand vigorously and said: "The adults are angry, the adults are angry, the villain is not hiding anything, really, the dog nose goes out to steal every day as usual, he is not abnormal, it is normal." ”

Xu Dadao: "Do you call it normal for stepping on your mother's daily stealing?"

Spotted Dog said helplessly: "If he can't go out and steal as a thief, what else can he do?"

Wang Qilin slapped the table and leaned over and said, "Have you done anything related to scholars or reading and writing?"

"Something to do with reading and writing," Piebald scratched his head and thought, "He once went to a study to steal something, does that count?"

"Count," Wang Qilin asked, "What day are you going to steal it?"

The spotted dog thought for a while and said, "The ninth day of the first month, it is also the ninth day of the first month!" He climbed in through the window before dawn on the morning of the ninth day, but when he heard the movement, he saw that there were scholars coming early in the morning, so he grabbed a few pens and inkstones and ran back. ”

I used to steal a pen and inkstone......

Scholar and pen inkstone......

The fourth scholar's brother mentioned the abnormality of the brush......

"Which study?"

"This dognose didn't say. ”

Wang Qilin didn't ask anymore, stood up and said sharply: "Lord Dou, you quickly take your brothers to control the study in the whole city first, and you are not allowed to enter or leave!"

"Lao Xu, you go and bring the families of the four scholars, this case should be related to the pen inkstone and the study. ”

Dou Dachun was confused: "Can this inkstone still kill people?"

Xie Toad stroked his beard and said: "There are many things that can be done by pen inkstones, but it should not be the pen inkstones who killed people this time, but it is related to them." ”

The four families were taken to the court in one go, and this time Wang Qilin did not sit behind the table, but stood in front of the table with a long knife.

He felt that it was more imposing.

As soon as the eldest brother of the fourth scholar arrived, Wang Qilin stared at him.

The scholar's eldest brother knelt down on the spot.

"Tell me something, hide it from me. Wang Qilin said in a slow and solemn tone.

The scholar's eldest brother panicked: "My lord Mingjian, I didn't hide it from you." ”

"When you're at home, you obviously want to stop talking!"

The eldest brother of the scholar breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I see, my lord, I heard Lord Catcher say that there is no brush in my brother's study, and I think it shouldn't be, because I just bought a brush and a stone for my brother a few days ago. ”

"But my mother-in-law is stingy and doesn't want to spend money on my brother, so I don't dare to say it at home. ”

I bought a brush, but I didn't find it in the study......

The dog's nose stole the pen inkstone......

Wang Qilin immediately asked, "Where did you buy a brush?"

The eldest brother of the scholar said: "Returning to my lordship, it is 'I don't know how to fast'." ”

Wang Qilin looked at the others, and the other parents were at a loss.

There are fathers who know which Qinglou their son went to, but they really don't know which study they went to to buy pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.
