We have all the space treasury in hand, so mere exile is nothing.
Chapter 176 The true face of the accomplice
"You are a person who can just grab someone and make up a story and say he is the murderer. You simply don't take the magistrate seriously!"
The county magistrate spoke first, hoping to persuade Ye Guodong and others to retreat.
But Ye Guodong is a person who has seen the big world, how could he be scared off by his few words?
He took a step forward, pointed at the man in black and said, "The poison this man put in our food is the same as the poison in the inn last time. Please take a look, Lord Prefect."
He pointed at the waist of the man in black and said, "The wooden sign here is also the same as the wooden sign on the assassin caught last time, except that the inscriptions on it are different."
He took off his waist badge and handed it to the prefect.
Previously, Dong Liao's waistband was engraved with the word "Dong", but this time it was engraved with the word "Han", but I don't know what it means.
The prefect carefully inspected the waist tag and nodded: "It is indeed the same material as the last waist tag. Even the strength and handwriting of the engraving are the same."
"Sir, the murderer has been caught and the case can be closed. Why bother with this sudden piece of evidence? The people are still waiting for the results!"
The county magistrate was a little anxious. The last thing he wanted to see was for the case that had been settled to suddenly become unintentional. What's more, if this continued, he would have no suitable reason to keep Ye Qingran and Chu Qingyun.
He was really disgusted with these two people. Although they had caught the murderer, they had left him as the county magistrate and could not get any benefits in front of the prefect. Now their family members brought someone to cause trouble. It was really disgusting.
Hearing his words, the prefect glanced at him and said, "Are the people just waiting for an unsubstantiated result? What they are waiting for is a peaceful living environment. If we don't thoroughly investigate at this time, there will be other problems in the future. Villagers were killed, and if something like this happens again, you won’t have to be the county magistrate anymore.”
As soon as the magistrate finished speaking, the county magistrate did not dare to say a word, and beads of sweat began to form on his forehead. He was thinking about how to explain Ye Qingran's matter later.
After Ye Guodong understood the attitude of the prefect, he walked back to Ye Zhuoyu, turned the face of the man in black, and said, "This is the person who poisoned us last night."
At first, he kept his head down, making it difficult for people to see his appearance. But when he raised his head, everyone's expressions changed, especially the county magistrate. His face was livid, and his teeth were chattering when he looked at the face of the man in black. .
"Han...Han Shu? Why is it you?"
The expression of the prefect did not change much. He had long known that this county government office was not clean. Besides Dong Liao, there must be other people with problems. Now is the time to confirm this conjecture.
Han Shu knew that he had been recognized and wanted to struggle to escape, but his hands were tied tightly. Ye Zhuoyu kept guarding him, and the strength of his hands did not weaken at all. He could not struggle away and quickly gave up.
"Sir, I was wronged!" he argued.
After hearing what he said, the county magistrate was more willing to believe what he said. After all, two assassins had been eliminated from his county government office. He really couldn't accept this result.
"Go on, what's going on?"
Han Shu gritted his teeth: "I just met the boys who were helping in the kitchen. They said that the kitchen had prepared snacks and asked me to help deliver them to the guest room, so I helped deliver them. There was no poison at all! I also I don’t know why they suddenly wanted to beat me and even said they would take my life to take credit!”
He was in a hurry and couldn't think of any good reasons, so he made them up randomly. But even though he was completely wrong, the county magistrate still did not interrupt him, and even hoped that he would say more.
But Ye Guodong did not give him this chance and said directly: "Although the plate of dim sum was knocked over by us, it is still there in the guest room. You will know if there is any poison in that snack! Furthermore, you can also ask the kitchen. We won’t suddenly make snacks and deliver them to the guest room in the middle of the night.”
Even without saying these words, a discerning person could tell that Han Shu was jumping over the wall and biting randomly, but the county magistrate still wanted to seize the slightest chance to deny this fact.
The prefect also became a little impatient. He glared at the county magistrate and said, "Okay, since the physical evidence is complete, the case cannot be closed here. At least it must be investigated carefully."
He snorted coldly, "County magistrate, your county office is really not clean. Please pick a time to clean it up."
The county magistrate nodded repeatedly, smiled apologetically, and did not dare to refute a word. During this period, he kept looking at Han Shu fiercely, wishing he could seal his mouth immediately.
The prefect thought for a moment and then looked at Ye Guodong: "You brought people here in person, maybe it's not just for this matter, right? Do you have anything else to say?"
Ye Guodong heard his question and immediately replied: "I am indeed not just here for this matter. The most important purpose of my coming here is to hope that you will release my daughter Ye Qingran and his friend Chu Qingyun from the cell." Come out and give us a reasonable explanation."
Hearing this, the county magistrate lowered his head even lower, wishing he could immediately find a hole to crawl into.
The prefect was shocked: "What? Are they in prison?"
As soon as he spoke, he immediately reacted and asked the county magistrate directly, "County magistrate, what's going on? Whose order is this?!"
The matter was put to his head, and the county magistrate had no choice but to reply: "What I said to you, sir, is the order of my subordinate."
After he finished speaking, he began to quibble again, "My lord, please don't be fooled by them. After all, that girl is both poison and powder. She is too mysterious and difficult to believe. According to the official, this is simply not true." They are pretending to be gods, even if they want to investigate what happened behind this, they should be locked up first, that's why they are put in prison!"
He spoke plausibly, and the prefect understood what he was thinking, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
After all, he did mention to the county magistrate that if the murderer was not caught, then Ye Qingran would be the murderer.
But what he said was just some other speculations, but now Ye Qingran has caught the murderer. Although it is only one of them, it is enough to prove that they are not the murderer. Since they are not murderers, how can they be put into prison at will?
"Okay, you don't need to say it anymore. If you fail, you will fail."
The Lord Magistrate said through gritted teeth, his tone full of hatred that iron cannot be transformed into steel.
Seeing that their attention was no longer on him, Han Shu immediately lowered his head and wanted to bite his tongue and commit suicide.
Fortunately, although Ye Guodong was waiting for the prefect's reply, he still paid attention to the situation on his side with his peripheral vision, so he noticed his little move at the first time.
