Zhang Zhixian is also very curious about what is going on with this matter, he has not found out after so many years, although the people of Qiaoyin County do not blame themselves, but this is indeed his dereliction of duty, so he has been very guilty in his heart all these years, and he can only silently give more subsidies to the victimized families, but what can this change.

Lin Ba sorted out his thoughts: "Actually, this murderer lurking in Qiaoyin County is not a demon or a monster. It's the person who lives on Cheng'an Street, this person is also something that everyone would never have imagined, and when I learned the truth, I couldn't believe it, this person was the ugly old man who lived in Qiaoyin County. ”

"What? How could it be, it wouldn't be a lie, would it?"

"Yes, yes, I don't look at what age that ugly old man is, how can he still do such a thing. ”

Most of the people present were talking a lot, and almost didn't believe what Lin Ba said. Even the prefectural order that sits on it is a little unconvinced.

The county magistrate patted the wood.

"Silence. After everyone quieted down, he turned around and questioned Lin Ba: "Shopkeeper Lin, you must have evidence to speak in the lobby, and you can't talk nonsense." Can you give a perfect explanation for this?"

"Yes, have you ever wondered why you haven't found the murderer for so many years, and even think that he has a ghost doing it, precisely because no one of us will guess at the same time as an old man, so that he can commit crimes frequently and unscrupulously. So every time I check, the first one has already ruled out the murderer, so how can I find him?"

The county magistrate thoughtfully: "What you said is not unreasonable, even if he is the murderer, but we can't find out when you can explain why the crime was committed." An old man is sometimes not even as strong as a woman. It is impossible to succeed again and again. ”

"That's the crux of the matter. As the saying goes, people should not look good, the old man looks old and sick on the surface, and he has no power to act, but who of you will know that he is actually a master of martial arts? ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a lot of discussion in the lobby.

"And such a thing?"

"That's right, as I said, this old man is actually a martial arts master, and everyone will automatically exclude him, and sometimes when he goes to Qiaoyin County to ambush, he will be specially informed, so that his identity is covered up. ruled out that he was a murderer, and gave him a tip-off, which can be found out, this is a god. ”

Everyone was silent for a while, if the murderer was really this ugly old man, then their responsibility would be great.

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Lin Ba said another message.

"In fact, this ugly old man also has an identity, that is, the number of chipmunks and plums. It means that whether it is the ghost of Cheng'an Street or the thief Chippunk Li Shu, it is this old man alone. ”

"Oh, do you mean that the number of chipmunks is also pretended by this old man?" At this time, the county magistrate had already believed half of it, but there were still many questions.

"What does Xiao Min think about deceiving a few adults, Xiao Min just wants to return Qiao Yin's people to a calm, if the county magistrate still doesn't believe it, you can wait for the ugly old man's body to move back, and make a good judgment. ”

"Well, Shopkeeper Lin, you have this distraction, I am very grateful to you as the county magistrate of Qiaoyin County, but I hope you can also understand, this is not a simple matter, I must give an explanation to the people of Qiaoyin County, I can't draw conclusions based on your words, and there are still many strange things in this matter that have not yet been investigated. It's not too late to draw conclusions when the corpse comes back, or shopkeeper Lin, do you have anything else to add?"

"Yes, the county magistrate is wise, Xiaomin does have something to say, and Xiaomin also knows that this matter may be very convincing with my few words, but why do I know so much, not for anything else, this is all told to me by the old man himself. ”

"What? is this true?" The county magistrate actually stood up, his eyes a little sharp: "Why did he tell you in person, where did this come from." ”

"I'm not going to hide it, in fact, I was caught by this old man last night!!" Lin Ba looked embarrassed on his face, looking a little embarrassed to say it, he knew that his story was about to begin.

"Caught? What's going on. ”

"Enlighten everyone, yesterday evening, I was supposed to follow the big guy to see the happy event of Zhang Zhixian's home, but there were too many people, I didn't squeeze in, just walked outside, but I saw a person sneakily didn't know what he was doing, and his face was still covered with gauze, so people couldn't see the real face, so I felt a little strange, so I kept following him, and he was also walking towards Cheng'an Street. I didn't expect that. Lin Ba said, his expression was sad and angry.

"Unfortunately, this person had already found out that I was following him, and suddenly he turned around in a place where no one was and knocked me unconscious, and then I didn't know anything, and when I woke up, I saw that I had been tied up in an unknown place. And the man in black was sitting at the table in front of me. ”

"At this time, I was so scared that my soul was about to come out, and I was about to cry out, but I found that my dumb hole was pointed, and I couldn't make any sound at all, and I struggled, and I couldn't break free from the strong rope, and then the man in black saw that I woke up, and he looked at me and laughed, and he removed the gauze from his face, but he was not hurt at all, and when I saw the true face of that person, it was the ugly old man. ”

"Later, he talked to himself to me, in his opinion, I may be the one who is dying, so he told me everything, and I couldn't speak, I could only listen to him about the various sins he committed, and I was shocked to hear it, and then he said that he was going to go tonight~~" Lin Ba said this and listened for a while, and seemed to be a little afraid to say it again.

Everyone was listening attentively, and the county commander was anxious: "Say, why don't you say it, what are you going to do at night?"

Lin Ba hesitated and said: "Zhang Zhixian is here, I don't dare to say it." ”

"This. The county magistrate also glanced at Zhang Zhixian. After all, Zhang Zhixian is also an official who is bigger than himself. Although it is nothing on weekdays, this is in court after all.

"It's okay, it's okay, just say it!" Zhang Zhixian also nodded.

"Then I'll go on. Lin Ba was relieved when he saw Zhang Zhixian speak: "That ugly old man said that he was going to the county magistrate's mansion tonight, and he was often the daughter-in-law of the magistrate, I really want to see how I can only be angry but can't catch me!"

"Hmph, how can this be reasonable, this person is really too presumptuous. When the county magistrate heard Lin Ba say this, he was also very angry.

Zhang Zhixian didn't say anything. I knew about this last night, and it seems that this person is not wrong at all.

Later, he said to me, "If you're lucky, I'll spare you a few hours to die." With that, he went out. And after I waited for him to leave, all I thought about was Qiao Yin's people, thinking that if I escaped this time, the truth of so many years would be revealed, and I would give you an explanation, and I also felt that this was the most opportunity. So I struggled desperately, and despite the huge pain in my body, I was always breaking free, and I had a strong desire in my heart. But the rope was tied too tightly. I know he didn't break free when he came back in the end. But when I saw him come back, I found hope. ”

Everyone stared at Lin Ba deadly, wanting to know what he was going to say next.

Lin Ba is happy in his heart, it seems that his story is still made up. But the heart is happy. On the surface, it is still necessary to be serious.

"I found out that the man in black was seriously injured. The arm was broken. He could only cut off his own hands in the room. I didn't expect to have me by my side, but while he was weak, I finally untied the rope, picked up a chair and smashed him to death there. Then I ran out, alas, and blamed me for being too weak, and because I was frightened, I came to report the crime early this morning. After Lin Ba finished speaking, he also looked at everyone's faces.

"Good, good, good. The county magistrate shouted three times in a row: "In the face of such a thing, it is already very capable to do this, and the shopkeeper Lin cares about the people of Qiaoyin, and has done such a great good thing for the people of Qiaoyin County, he is really my noble person of Qiaoyin." ”

"yes, yes. Shopkeeper Lin is really good, this thing is very happy. The person next to him also echoed the prefectural order.

"By the way, how could this ugly old man suddenly break his arm? The prefectural commander asked.

"This, I don't know about this, I just ran away at the time. Lin Ba can only say that he doesn't know, otherwise he will be a goof.

"I was shocked, I had nothing to do last night, I was walking in the courtyard of the county governor's house, and I saw a man in black, and I didn't feel like a good thing, so I broke an arm for him. At this time, it was the guard Xiongkou who had been standing beside Envoy Li.

Xiongkou looked at Lin Ba was really a little funny, this story was the same as the truth, but he knew it in his heart. The man in black last night must have been defeated by Long Gongzi and Guangshi, but he didn't know what means he used. But that kid is really interesting.

Envoy Li didn't know what the meaning of Xiongkou was like this, but he didn't bother to care.

Everyone looked at it and was instantly convinced, they didn't know who Xiongkou was, and they didn't know how big an official Envoy Li was, but judging from Zhang Zhixian's actions. I'm afraid it will be a big official, and the guards around such a person must also be masters.

"There is such an opportunity. This person really commits many injustices and will kill himself. "The county magistrate has basically determined what Lin Ba said, just waiting for the few people who looked at the corpse to come back, if it is true, it can really be determined that the case that has been plaguing the people and officers and soldiers of Qiaoyin County in the past few years can finally be solved. The county commander was excited.

"Newspaper. "At this time, several people who had begun to go to Cheng'an Street to investigate the body had returned.

"Okay," the county magistrate was overjoyed: "How is it?
