Suspect in Jinling

Chapter 13 Yingtian Mansion

The daylight was too bright to look up.

Zhu Shi was forcibly dragged away by Jin Yiwei without giving up. On the main road in the city, some people cast their eyes curiously, while others showed fear and loathing. Cheng Dabin would even cover his bound hands with his clothes. When he came to Jin Yiwei, he was paraded through the streets like a prisoner being led by a rope.

The disparity in remuneration made Zhu Shi feel the naked danger. Although he couldn't meet acquaintances on the way to the east of the city, he was overwhelmed by fear. What should I do? What should I do?..." Of course Zhu Shi didn't believe that Sha Xiangyue was the murderer, he just thought that he shouldn't be in the business of a wealthy family, and if anything happened, he had to push it on little people like him, see The person next to him walked forward quietly, without saying a word, he couldn't help but prayed a little, and asked in a low voice: "Master Kill, tell me, will Catcher Kuang still care about us?"

When he was kidnapped and paraded through the streets, Sha Xiangyue was much quieter than Zhu Shi. He frowned, and finally reacted when he heard this sentence: "Ying Tianfu's arresting head is not an official, and he has no rank. The fifth-rank officer who escorted us in colorful makeup." His eyes were cold and lonely: "How do you want Kuang Jian to help us?"

The promise made an hour ago is still in my ears, but in a blink of an eye, he was accused of being a murderer and detained and arrested. It's not that he doesn't feel sad, but it's useless to be sad. After all, there are too few things a small headhunter can do. He might as well think about it. How to absolve yourself of wrongdoing.Sha Xiangyue raised her head and looked at the bustling crowds on the street under the sunlight, and said softly to herself, "...it's nothing, it's just unbearable."

The little man Zhu Shijie heard him say such ominous words, and for a while, his back felt cold, and his whole heart became cold...

"Kuang Wuyuan, you are so majestic."

In the only spacious and well-lit direct house on the east and west sides of Yingtian Mansion, Mr. Li, who had slightly speckled temples and a full forehead, sat behind the desk, with a stern light in his eyes: "Pang Mansion was happy for the housewarming last night. The invitations have all been sent to you. If you don’t go, you will spend three hours talking about a murder case. The young man surnamed Chu is messing around, and you are messing around too. Who are the people in the Pang Mansion? You say, The entire Jinling Pavilion is closed today?"

Kuang Jian stood up straight with straight shoulders, and when his boss scolded him, he listened carefully with his head down.When Mr. Li got tired of talking, he took a deep breath and drank some water. His clear Adam's apple quickly slid up and down, and he interjected meticulously: "My lord, there is something wrong with this case. The real murderer is the elder next to Pang Zhengying." Following Qiu Deze, the subordinates have collected some evidence, it is impossible for Sha Xiangyue, who is now rebellious by the Zhenfu Secretary, to commit the crime, and he never went up to the third floor at all on the night of the crime."

Master Li frowned, glared at him while drinking water, and thought that he could hear what he said just now in the dog's ears.

"Don't worry about it, Jin Yiwei has already grasped the key evidence, and there is a secret passage in the study."

"……what?"

Kuang Jian was caught off guard and was stunned.

Li Min raised his eyebrows and glared at him again, "There is a secret passage in the medicine cabinet on the east side of the study!"

It is not surprising that there is a secret passage in the study of the dignitaries, but this message seems to make the case even more confusing. Kuang Jian was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to react.

Li Min: "All the adults from the two courts have come, and Uncle Fengcheng was also alarmed. He commanded his fellow acquaintance, Lu Duanxian, and Mr. Lu to temporarily act as the Fusi of Beizhen, and asked for a quick investigation of the case. We have seen the secret road. You can go straight into the study from the garden. There are not many people who know this passage, and Sha Xiangyue is one of them. Afterwards, I asked who saw him downstairs when the crime happened. Unfortunately, all the guests downstairs said that No one ever saw him."

"But..." Kuang Jian's voice froze for a moment, "Even if there is a secret way, if he really committed the murder of Xiangyue, Pang Zhengying would not be unaware as soon as he entered the study, and would call for help early..." No!He gritted his teeth, the crux of the matter was not here, he tried hard to clarify his thoughts, and said angrily: "It was Chu Ji who identified it!"

Li Min leaned back in the armchair, his eyes narrowed for a moment: Sometimes, this subordinate's thoughts are really frighteningly sharp.

Seeing the thought-provoking expression of his boss, Kuang Jian knew that he had guessed right, but instead of being happy, he felt embarrassed: What is going on?He had only been away from Pang Mansion for more than an hour, why Chu Ji?In the end what happened?

Li Min looked at his tangled expression, and softened his voice slightly: "Don't worry about who identified it, let go of your paranoid belief, and think about it. This situation is the only one that can explain why the lock is locked from the inside. , from the point of view of the modus operandi, it can be justified."

"How do you justify yourself?" There was no one around, and Kuang Jian heard the anger, regardless of the fact that the person in front of him was his immediate boss, "The craftsman violated the owner's house on the day the building was completed? Sha Xiangyue declared that the building he built was a murderous house in front of everyone's eyes? How does this justify itself?"

Li Min raised the case suddenly: "What about the evidence? Are you going to present your conjectures in court?"

"Then the secretary of the town's government will have strong evidence to identify Sha Xiangyue..."

When Kuang Jian said this, he suddenly stopped.

"That's right, they have," Li Min said in a deep voice, slamming each word, "one is the blueprint that went wrong, and the other is the confession that you just tried, Zhu Shi. "

"Swoosh!" There was a sound of the whip!

The whip reverberated slightly to make a sharp wind sound, and "slapped" a fresh bloodstain!

This place is the Sizhao prison of the town government. It is dark and cold, with various torture instruments.

Chu was gasping for breath, unable to support his knees physically, and staring at the person on the frame: he is already a fifth-rank Qianhu, and his subordinates do his best to do everything. From yesterday to today, he has suffered the deepest setbacks in more than ten years, embarrassment, resentment, and grief. He took steps to protect the adult, which resulted in his death, and now he has to hand over the right to handle the case.The whip rolled up his emotions that were hard to express, swung it out mercilessly, and slapped on the dull muscles and bones. The old prisoner groaned slightly, whipped endlessly, and lowered his head heavily... …

"Qianhu...you can't fight any more, and you can't do it anymore!" Xiao Qi beside him stepped forward to dissuade him in fear.

Chu Ji pushed his subordinate away with a palm, "Get lost!"

Chu Ji is 30 years old this year. He served as the captain of Jinyiwei. He participated in the Yang Ji case at the age of 19. His official career has been smooth and smooth for more than ten years.

The Yang Ji case was the culmination of his life, a legend of the Zhenfu Secretary, a major case that can be talked about by countless people, and has a far-reaching impact on the entire court. Jane is generally hard-working, shrewd and capable. He even dared not beat his deputy seal, Lu Duanxian, under the orders of the town's secretary. He always remembered that he was a person with real achievements, not Lu Duanxian, Jiang Xingzheng, etc. Yin, donate officials to the town government to take empty money for wine bags and rice bags!He is now 30 years old, and has already reached the fifth rank of the Zhenfu Secretary. No one in his generation can match his achievements, and he will not reach such an official position in such a prestigious Yamen at this age!But... such days are going to be gone forever, Mr. Pang passed away, Lu Duanxian took charge of all matters in charge of Beizhen, Jiang Xingzheng was proud, because he had no evidence, he was so downcast that even a murderous slave could threaten him !

Chu Ji raised his hand and lashed five whips viciously!

The old criminal was immediately torn apart, the barbs of the whip pierced the fresh wound, and when the whip was shaken, the blood foam flew everywhere!But even so, Chu Ji still refused to stop, he imagined that these whips were falling on the heinous murderer, sweat dripped from his hair, he was full of anger, he was merciless, blood and sweat splashed He frantically waved his whip once, twice, three times!Snapped!Snapped! !Snapped! ! !His heart beat faster and faster, the whip whipped more and more violently, but his eyes became colder and colder in the blood mist!

Suddenly, he stopped.

The iron gate on the outermost layer of the imperial prison gave out a hoarse and deep roar when it opened and closed, followed by a series of footsteps and a resounding announcement from a small flag: "Chu Qianhu, Sha Xiangyue and Zhu Shi have arrived. "

"No Abyss!"

In Yingtian Mansion, Kuang Jian just came out of Master Li Min's room, and went straight to her own house, took Qiu Weng's pile of resumes and left.

"Where are you going?" Fourth Master grabbed the boy across the desk.

"The secretary of the town government," Kuang Jian replied, "I'll find Chu Ji."

"Are you still going through this muddy water?" Fourth Master frowned, "The yamen has its own rules, and obeying orders is the iron rule. Since the town government secretary has made it clear that we won't let us intervene, don't make fun of yourself!"

"I promised people!"

Kuang Jian was suddenly irritable, and rushed out of his mouth, only to realize that he had lost his composure, suppressed his anger, and said stubbornly: "I have to take care of this matter, Lu Duanxian is in a hurry to solve the case, and he wants to use my confession as an unjust case, I can't investigate it anymore I half-seeed them implicating good people, not to mention I promised him that I would take care of his safety."

The guards outside Zhishe had just been trained by the governor, and they were a little bit silent at this moment. The movement between the two of them was a little louder. Qian Jin and Xiaoliuzi all looked over anxiously from the outside, and the fourth master was irritable. With a click of the tongue, he turned his head and yelled at the fox-like brat, "It's time to work, what are you looking at!"

As he said, he grabbed Kuang Jian's arm and walked to a secluded place in Zhishe, earnestly saying, "Why are you so angry at this time? What do you do? No one in the house can help you, and Chu Ji, who can cooperate with you internally and externally, has also been dismissed. What else do you want to do?"

"I have my way."

Kuang Jian looked resolute, and his tone was even more resolute. He just asked, "Will you tell Mr. Li?"

The fourth master paused, never expecting to be turned into an army: "...What are you talking about...Of course not."

Kuang Jian nodded: "That's good, fourth master, just wait for my news." She said without looking back, leaving the flamboyant middle-aged man behind, and strode away.
