Joe's little lady

Chapter 535 Self-reliance
The person who came beckoned, and the person behind carried the body forward, Wu Zuo came up to check it, and said: "My lord, I drowned to death two hours ago."

Lieutenant Chen's face changed: "How could this be, people are still in the county government office at noon?"

County Magistrate Luo's face was even more gloomy. He said sharply, "Check, has he had any contact with the person he brought back yesterday?"

"Yes!"

This investigation, as expected, found Hedinghong on Li Chang's body, and the person he escorted was Young Master Ding, and even checked all the prisoners one by one.

All the spearheads were pointed at him, but he was dead!
The dead are the best at keeping secrets.

Magistrate Luo, Qiao Anhao, Lu Zhishu, they all know!
Lieutenant Chen's face was also livid, and he almost couldn't believe it: "It seems that the person who murdered Young Master Ding and the others was Li Chang. He saw that we wanted to investigate thoroughly, and committed suicide in fear of crime?"

After saying that, Qiao Anhao, who had been staring at the corpse, shook her head: "I'm afraid it may not be possible!"

County Captain Chen frowned: "What did Mrs. Qiao discover?"

Qiao Anhao lifted off Li Chang's clothes and pointed at the back of his neck: "There are pinch marks on the back of his neck, as if he was held down by someone, more like being held down and drowned to death! "

Wu Zuo hurriedly stepped forward to examine it carefully, and wiped the sweat off his forehead: "Ms. Qiao said so!"

County Magistrate Luo sneered: "It looks like this is trying to kill someone!"

Lu Zhishu's expression was cold: "Do you want to kill someone?"

"Unfortunately, even the dead may not be able to keep the secret."

County Captain Chen asked puzzledly: "Here, this person is dead, how can we investigate?"

Lu Zhishu raised his head and glanced at him: "Since he's dead, let's find out who he's met before, as well as the people around Young Master Ding, and find out who they met before they died. "

"I don't believe it anymore, I can't find out the tricks!"

County Magistrate Luo said, "That's right!"

"Come here, find out who Li Chang met in the month before his death, what happened to him, and who are these people around Young Master Ding, who are they in contact with, Everything needs to be checked out!"

Lieutenant Chen took a deep breath: "Master Luo, I'm afraid it will take a long time to investigate?"

County magistrate Luo looked at him: "Chen County Captain, including the life of Ding Dashao, this time, there are more than 20 lives. It can be said that this is the biggest murder case in Luoshan County in recent years. You don't think it is necessary to Thorough investigation?"

Lieutenant Chen hurriedly wiped the sweat from his forehead: "This subordinate doesn't mean that."

"The subordinate is just afraid that this will take a long time!"

Lu Zhishu's voice sounded: "Master Chen, don't worry, I will help you to investigate together!"

County Captain Chen: "..."

"Yes."

Qiao Anhao came to the county office in the morning, and has been following the present. She probably understands this matter. She may not be able to find out about this matter for a while. She glanced at the county magistrate Luo who had been busy all day, and coughed lightly: " That, Mr. Luo, I don’t think it will be clear for a while, if there is nothing else, why don’t I go back first?”

Only then did Luo County Magistrate remember this matter, and hurriedly said: "All right, all right, you go back first!"

The county magistrate at the side reminded him: "My lord, Mrs. Qiao's statement hasn't been recorded yet!"

County magistrate Luo came back to his senses: "Go and record it with the county magistrate."

Qiao Anhao nodded. She was the victim, and after explaining the matter clearly, she would be fine. Lu Zhishu said worriedly, "Wait, Anhao, I'll take you back."

Qiao An took a good look and said, "No need, this is all in the county seat, besides, I have Fu'an with me, and I can defend myself, so it's fine."

Lu Zhishu thought about it for a while and said, "That's fine, then you go back to rest first, and you can rest assured about this matter. I dragged County Magistrate Luo all night today, and I have to find out what's going on."

Qiao Anhao coughed lightly: "Actually, there's no need to hurry."

"Anyway, I have nothing to worry about."

Lu Zhishu said, "No."

"Let's see who in a county is so bold."

Qiao An knew well that when things got to this point, it was not only her personal hatred, but also the dignity of Luo County Magistrate and Lu Zhishu's anger, so she didn't say anything more, after saying goodbye to Lu Zhishu and Luo County Magistrate Then went home.

After leaving the county office, it was getting late, and the people on both sides of the street gradually thinned out. Qiao Anhao also went back. The county office was not very far from her home, but she had just arrived at the alley when a thin woman suddenly In the middle of the night, they came out from the dark side. Under the dim sky in the evening, Qiao Anhao and Baozhu jumped up in fright, and took a step back instinctively.

Fu An, who was following the two of them, immediately looked wary: "Who?"

Soon, a small voice was heard: "Miss Qiao, it's me."

Qiao Anhao was taken aback for a moment, and with the help of the dim light, she recognized at a glance that it was Chen Xiucai's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Lin, who was wearing gray and linen clothes. She looked very old and her complexion was very pale. , but he seemed a bit cautious when he saw her, but he still stirred his hands and whispered: "Ms. Qiao, yes, I'm sorry, I scared you."

"I, I'm waiting for you here, because I want to thank you for today's matter."

"Thank you for protecting me."

The intermittent voice was not loud, and she could hear her nervousness, but she seemed to muster up her courage. With the faint light in the evening, Qiao Anhao could clearly see the bruises on her face.

Those bruises did not disperse, although the eyes were still a little scarlet, looking cautious and miserable.

This is what it looks like after domestic violence.

Seeing the clenched fists in her hands, she was silent for a while and said, "You're welcome, but Mrs. Lin, if you want to get rid of the current predicament and despair, I can help you."

After finishing speaking, she added: "Of course, if you don't want to, just pretend I didn't say anything."

This era, after all, still belongs to ancient times.

These people have been educated from the beginning to the end, and now it is extremely difficult for them to refute their husband-in-law, or what to do, not to mention what happened at noon today, she clearly knew that if she did not go through her Allowing her to be nosy might cause her other troubles, or even greater pain.

Even if she can pretend to be a villain to deter her mother-in-law and husband-in-law, it is not a long-term solution after all.

So in the end, it still depends on herself, whether she is willing to be independent or not.

Lin was stunned for a moment, and there was mist in her scarlet eyes, but she seemed to think of something, and finally shook her head resolutely: "I chose the road myself."

"So be it!"
