Chapter 376: Assassination Case 11 of No. 25 House
Seocho was all too familiar with the crazy neighbors on the left and right sides of Tao Dasheng's cell.
Once, these two also accompanied her through a few days of "beautiful" prison life.
Shouting for the guilty steamed bun with no money, and the rickety old man who was looking for his son, when he saw Seocho standing outside the cell, the hideous expression on his face disappeared at once, and he retreated to the corner with a frightened face, hugged his knees, and muttered incoherently: "There are monsters." Youkai are coming, youkai are coming. ”
Mu Yirong, who looked at Seocho suspiciously, lowered his voice and asked Seocho, "What did you do?"
Before, something did happen in the prison, and they all blamed the two neighbors next door for being so annoying that Seocho couldn't sleep well.
So, she took action and punished Xiao Yi!
Ruicao, who smiled and glanced at the steamed bun and the rickety old man, raised his hand, and casually greeted the two old neighbors.
Then he stepped forward, walked to the front of the cell, and shouted at Tao Dasheng, who was lying with his back to him.
Tao Dasheng, who heard the sound, turned around and saw Mu Yirong and Ruicao, immediately stood up from the ground, walked to the iron door of the cell with a happy face, and grabbed the railing with both hands excitedly.
"Brother Mu, Sister Seocho, you have come to see me. ”
Mu Yirong nodded, and before he could open his mouth, Liu Shicheng, the secretary of the criminal department who came with him, stepped forward and began to persuade Tao Dasheng in a serious tone with the tone of the elders in the clan.
"This candidate, the official believed what you said, and invited Mu Shilang over. It is a blessing for you to be able to meet someone as upright and brave as the Wooden Waiter, and do not disappoint the Wooden Waiter who believes in and appreciates you. Now, you will tell the truth, does the death of the scholar Zhongju have anything to do with you?"
Liu Shicheng still hopes that the sturdy and sturdy young man in front of him is the real murderer of scholar Zhongju, so that the case can be closed immediately, and he and the eldest prince can continue to live a worry-free life.
However, Tao Dasheng shook his head again and again, as before, resolutely denied killing the scholar Zhongju, and also excitedly said that the gentleman did not remember the old evils, and he and the scholar Zhongju had already shook hands and made peace, and there was no reason to do such a sinful thing at all. Please Mu Yirong and Ruicao must believe what he said, he definitely did not kill the scholar Zhongju.
Mu Yirong asked Tao Dasheng to calm down first, and then asked him if anyone could prove it to him during the period between last night and when he was arrested and sent to the Criminal Department.
After thinking for a while, Tao Dasheng shook his head with a dazed and disappointed expression, saying that he had been sleeping all night, recuperating and preparing for today's martial arts exam.
Speaking of this, his expression became gloomy and sad, and he sighed and said that he had practiced kung fu hard this year, just to participate in this year's martial arts exam and get a good ranking.
Now that he is imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department, he has missed this year's martial arts exam, and he really has no face to go back to face his hometown elders who have high hopes for him.
Mu Yirong comforted Tao Dasheng a few words, there will be a chance in the future, he believes that with Tao Dasheng's ability, he will definitely be able to become a martial champion next time, and then asked Tao Dasheng, have you heard what scholar Zhongju said to him?
Tao Dasheng shook his head and said that after they parted in the teahouse before, he went to find the inn.
At that time, scholar Zhongju said that he wanted to accompany him to find an inn, but Tao Dasheng disliked scholar Zhongju's slow pace and didn't want to delay scholar Zhongju's reading and revision time, so he declined scholar Zhongju's kindness.
So the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, agreed that they would get together for a drink after the exam, and then said goodbye. Dream life
After that, Tao Dasheng never met with the scholar Zhongju again, and it was not until he was arrested and put in the prison of the Criminal Department that he knew that something had happened to the scholar Zhongju.
Saying that, it was hard to hide his regret, and with hope, he confirmed to Mu Yirong and Ruicao that the scholar Zhongju was really dead?
Mu Yirong, who also felt very regretful, nodded, and informed the scholar that Zhongju's death was true, and Tao Dasheng, who was deeply distressed, sighed again, saying that a good person, how could such a thing happen?
Mu Yirong and Ruicao also want to know, why did scholar Zhongju encounter such a thing?
Seeing Mu Yirong and Ruicao, there was no doubt at all about Tao Dasheng's thoughts in front of him, and Liu Shicheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, couldn't help but ask anxiously, asking Tao Dasheng if he knew that there was anyone who was not on good terms with the scholar Zhongju and might kill him?
Tao Dasheng had only known scholar Zhongju for a day, so how could he know who he had a grudge with, or who would want to kill him.
Tao Dasheng, who shook his head to express his ignorance, immediately exchanged a roll of eyes from Liu Shicheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and reminded Tao Dasheng in a serious tone that only by clearing his suspicion as soon as possible could he get out of the prison.
Tao Dasheng couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart, he wanted to get out of the prison as soon as possible more than anyone else. However, if he doesn't know, he doesn't know, and he can't just make up a person and accuse the other party of being a murderer.
Liu Shicheng saw that Tao Dasheng just shook his head vigorously and said that he didn't know, and he couldn't ask a reason at all, so he reluctantly said to Mu Yirong: "Virtuous nephew, you still persuade him well, only by confessing truthfully, it will be good for everyone." ”
Mu Yirong ignored Liu Shicheng's attitude that was always changing inexplicably, approached the iron door of the cell, and asked Tao Dasheng in a low voice, can you know what is the name of the fellow villager who lived in the same room with the scholar Zhongju before?
Seeing Mu Yirong so cautious, Tao Dasheng squinted his eyes all of a sudden, and asked Mu Yirong if he suspected the fellow scholar Zhongju?
Mu Yirong, who still kept his voice low, told Tao Dasheng that he felt that the scholar Zhongju would not be killed for no reason, and that he might be involved in something, or that someone was jealous of Xian and killed him.
As a fellow scholar of Zhongju, and living in the same room with him, he must know something, and he is worried that the murderer may be unfavorable to that fellow villager.
Hearing this, Tao Dasheng began to think carefully, he said that when he had an argument with the scholar Zhongju in the inn that day, there was a person standing next to Zhongju, who was not tall, with no beard on his face, and a pair of triangular eyes, and it seemed that he could hear from his words that he and the scholar Zhongju lived in the same room.
At that time, the scene was very chaotic and noisy, and Tao Dasheng was vaguely, as if he heard someone call that person "Teng Sheng".
Not tall, beardless, triangular eyes, surnamed Teng, from Ningzhou, previously lived in the Laifu Inn.
Mu Yirong sorted out this information and wrote it down, and then looked at Tao Dasheng, whose face became a little haggard, and said that he believed that Tao Dasheng had nothing to do with the death of scholar Zhongju, so that Tao Dasheng could stay in the cell with peace of mind, and wait for the case investigation to be over, and the wronged Tao Dasheng would be released immediately.
Hearing Mu Yirong's conclusive assertion that Tao Dasheng had nothing to do with this case, Liu Shicheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department who was standing on the side, snorted coldly in his heart, hoping that the results of the future investigation would prove that Tao Dasheng was the real murderer, so that Mu Yirong would slap himself in the mouth.
Seocho glanced at Liu Shicheng, who had his thoughts written on his face, and then told Tao Dasheng in the tone of a senior in a prison, let him sleep peacefully when he should sleep, eat when he should eat, don't wronged himself, and don't worry, she believes that soon, the truth will come out.
As she spoke, she patted the doors of the cells on the left and right, and her expression became gloomy, and she bared her teeth to warn the steamed bun and the rickety old man not to disturb Tao Dasheng.
Otherwise, she eats them!
