Chapter 252: The government investigates and deals with the case of unjust ghosts
The official reported the situation one by one, "All the rooms are similar, the quilt is scattered, the windows are wide open, the luggage is in the house, there is only one room, and the one on the top of the third floor, the window is wide open, but everything such as the quilt is neat, and I found this from the cabinet."

The official found the night clothes they were wearing at that time from the room where Sikong picked the stars and put them on the table, Lord Sun stared at the two night clothes with his eyes locked, and he didn't speak for a long time, suddenly, he stood up and said, "Take me upstairs to have a look." ā
A head catcher and an official took Master Sun and walked towards the third floor, just as the official said, the objects here are neat, not touched at all, the quilt is folded very neatly, as if he has never lived, Lord Sun stood in front of the window, looked up and looked, isn't this the opposite side of the prefect's yamen......? He chuckled in his heart, looked ahead with his eyes intently, and secretly exclaimed, "Could it be that all this is aimed at the yamen? What is his purpose? What is his purpose in killing the shopkeeper?"
He looked out the window and fell into deep contemplation, "Your Excellency, in the first half of the night, the yamen ran out of water, and Master Liao ordered me to quickly search all the inns. ā
It was no one else who reported it, but he was coming to check the ward, and when Lord Sun heard it, he was very curious and asked, "What?
"Yes, when we came to the beam, the shopkeeper told me that when they were on the beam, I didn't dare to startle the snake, after going back, I reported to Master Liao, Master Liao and I came, just arrived at the door, suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing, we didn't even see what was going on, but the shopkeeper said that the two had flown away from the door, and took away his signboard. ā
The words of the quick catch made Lord Sun's thoughts fluctuate, there is really such a good martial art in the world, it can disappear in the blink of an eye in front of everyone's eyes? And took away the signboard? It's really incredible, is it really him? A person flashed in his sea.
At this moment, Master Liao went upstairs and said, "My lord, I have already examined it, this person was overly frightened, and his blood vessels suddenly constricted, and the blood vessels burst, blocking the coronary arteries and causing myocardial infarction. His right arm was cut off with a sharp weapon after he was scared to death!"
When Master Sun heard this, he said, "What, the real reason for his death was to be scared to death?
Master Liao nodded and said, "Yes, from his eyes and mouth after death, he may have been greatly intimidated, judging from the urine on his lower body, he was frightened far beyond the limit of what he could bear, everyone's tolerance for fright is limited, once it exceeds this degree, he will be frightened to death." ā
Lord Sun nodded, while listening to Master Liao's report, he walked a few other rooms, and then walked downstairs, onlookers are the common hobby of all the neighbors, where is there any strange thing happening, no one needs to be informed, there is already a lot of water around, Lord Sun commanded and said, "Arrange for people to carry the body back to the yamen, and check it, what other family members are there in this shopkeeper?" What are the shopkeepers here, check them out, and understand that they will be brought to the yamen for questioning in the morning, and the people on the street will be dispersed and sent home, so that the merchants who live in the store will come in. ā
Master Liao bent over, and after receiving the order, he walked straight to the front row, arranged for the official to carry the body, and then walked to the front and shouted loudly, " Ladies and gentlemen, we have all seen that there was a murder here, recently there are some thieves in the rivers and lakes mixed into Jinling City, for evil, scourge the township, please take care of your own door, manage your own people, see strangers, must report to the yamen, now Lord Sun wants to investigate the case on the spot, and please go back quickly, in addition, please line up in two lines of the guest officers who live in this inn, and the adults should ask questions one by one. ā
The officials and family members have spoken, how can they not follow the reason? All the neighbors shook their heads, "It is a wronged ghost who has come to the door, how can the government find out clearly?"
"That is, may the Bodhisattva bless you and not run into this unjust ghost. ā
"Little two, Ah San, hurry, go back!~"
...... There was an uproar in front of the inn, shouting children, calling adults, leaving with the old and the young, and the merchants had nowhere to go, so they could only stand obediently in a line, frightened one by one, waiting for the adult's question.
Master Sun sat in front of the hall, the official had already made him a cup of tea, he drank the tea peacefully, both sides were covered with officials, one by one holding steel knives, standing majestically, Master Liao had already found the registration book of the hotel, brought a table and chairs, opened the roster of the hotel, and began to ask questions with a pen. Although there is no "above board" plaque here, it is not much inferior to the prefect's yamen.
"What's your name, where do you come from, and where are you going?" asked Master Liao solemnly.
"Small, small. A middle-aged man crawled to the ground and knelt on the ground, and said in a panic, "The small Yangzhou Zengjiagou people, surnamed Zeng Minghua, heard that the tea in the Jiangnan area is good, this time with a few people from the same village, ready to go to Jiangnan, to Jinling, seeing that it was getting late, I stayed in this unlucky inn!"
As Master Liao listened, he put down a smile and asked, "What about the people you are with?"
The man named Zeng Hua looked at the back and shouted, "Ah Mao, Ah Si, Uncle Zeng, Yoko, Mao Zi, you all come in, the adults are asking!"
As he shouted, four young men and an old man walked out of the door, entered the hall, knelt side by side with Zeng Hua, and reported their names one by one.
Master Sun stood up with a smile and said, "I'm really sorry, it's me who is incompetent, and I'm causing trouble for everyone, so please hurry up." ā
Where have Zeng Hua and his gang seen any officials, seeing that Master Sun was so polite, he was at a loss to look at me, and I glared at you. The fat catcher roared, "Why don't you get up and don't thank you for asking you to stand up and talk back?"
Zeng Hua and his gang were yelled at like this, so they slowly stood up, and Master Sun said to the catcher in a solemn manner, "Why do you treat the merchants who come as far as my Jinling like this?
Caught up and yelled at him, turned around and went to make tea, and then Master Sun turned around, arched his hands, and said to Zeng Hua and his gang with a smile, "I'm really sorry, I'm not doing well in discipline, everyone is frightened, please sit down!"
Zeng Hua and his gang saw that Master Sun was amiable, so they breathed a sigh of relief and sat down, and Lord Sun asked, "And everyone, tell me everything you have seen and heard, and I will definitely find out the truth of the matter, so that everyone can do business with more confidence in the future." ā
But I don't know how this Zeng Hua group of merchants described everything at that time, and if you want to know what happened next, please see the next breakdown! )
