Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1886 Investigating and Chasing the Murderer
Erhu followed Wu Jian and the others to Jingzhao Mansion.

Although he was a little nervous, he was not afraid.

Maybe it's because he often kills pigs, he's a lot bolder, maybe it's because he thinks he's innocent.

It is true that something happened between him and Pan Lianlian, but he definitely did not kill anyone.

After arriving at Jingzhao Mansion, Di Zhixun immediately interrogated Erhu.

"Last night, did Pan Lianlian go to your house?"

Erhu shook his head quickly: "It was agreed that she would go, but she didn't. Because of this, I am very angry today."

"Didn't go to your house?"

"No, not really."

Di Zhixun frowned slightly. At this time, Erhu suddenly said: "My lord, I think it must be Chen Wen who killed Pan Lianlian. Although he is usually very honest, I know that when he is angry, This kind of thing is definitely possible, think about it, his wife is being played by other men, is he willing to do it, I'm afraid he's already suffocating in his heart."

Erhu felt that Chen Wen must be the murderer who killed Pan Lianlian.

Di Zhixun's expression moved slightly, and the two tigers continued talking, as if he had a lot to say and must say it.

"Once, I saw Chen Wen abusing a cat, and that cat was stripped alive by him. Let me ask, if this Chen Wen is not the kind of cruel person, how could he do such a thing? ?”

Animal cruelty is something that many people do. Many people kill chickens, goats, etc., but skinning cats alive is a bit rare to be honest.

I'm afraid many people don't know what to do after seeing those cats.

Chen Wen's ability to do such a thing is really terrifying, and it can even be said to be terrifying.

After hearing Erhu's words, Di Zhixun did not get any useful clues. As for Erhu's claim that Chen Wen was the murderer, it was not considered evidence.

In other words, the current Chen Wen can only be regarded as a criminal suspect.

His suspicion is great, but there is no evidence to say that he is the murderer.

After letting Erhu leave, Di Zhixun went to find Qin Tian and told him about the situation.

After Qin Tian heard these things, his eyes froze.

"The current situation, we can divide it into two situations to analyze. The first situation, the two recent murders in Chang'an City were committed by two murderers, and the second murderer was purely imitating the killing of the first murderer. He used this method to muddle through, but he didn't know that we had closed the case, which led to our wrong judgment. This kind of situation is naturally what we all want to see, because in this way, we don't have to be judged by other people. Accused, but I think the possibility of this situation is very small, so I am more inclined to the second option."

As an official, Qin Tian still has his own principles, yes is yes, no is no, even if the first situation is the most beneficial for them, yes is no.

Of course, Qin Tian was also worried that if they closed the case according to the first case, the murderer would commit another crime. In that case, even if Li Shimin wanted to protect him, he might not be able to protect him.

"Qin Guogong, the second situation?"

"In the second case, the two cases were committed by the same person. Although the murderer has no identity difference, they also have one thing in common, that is, the murderers were all promiscuous, and the next day my man wore a cuckold woman. .”

This is easy to see.

"The second scenario is indeed very possible, but if this is the case, it will be very difficult for us to find some clues about the murderer."

Di Zhixun felt that in the second case, they had no clue at the moment, and if they were given enough time, they would definitely be able to solve the case, but the emperor only gave them seven days, seven days, want to Solving the case, easier said than done?

However, after Di Zhixun finished speaking, Qin Tian shook his head and said, "It's not difficult. The two cases are related. Don't you think it's strange? How did the murderer learn about Gao Shilian's death?" The three concubines, and that Pan Lianlian who cuckolded her man?"

"This……"

"Let's go, go to the prison of Jingzhao Mansion and interrogate Duan Yu again."

The two came to the prison of Jingzhao Mansion, and soon, the jailer brought Duan Yu up.

At this time, Duan Yu's injuries were still not healed, seeing that Qin Tian and Di Zhixun were going to interrogate him again, he was very frightened and terrified.

"I... I have already confessed, why are you still interrogating me?"

The corner of Qin Tian's mouth twitched slightly, feeling like he wanted to slap him. He felt that Duan Yu really had no morals. If he didn't kill anyone, why did he admit it?
It was because of his admission that Qin Tian was impeached by the officials of the Manchu Dynasty. If the case could not be solved, his Qin Tian's fame would be ruined.

However, Qin Tian endured it.

"You were bragging to those gangsters before, saying that a woman gave you money back. Where did you and them say that?"

Hearing this, Duan Yu froze for a moment, feeling a little strange, he had already admitted it, why did he ask this?

But he couldn't think about it so much now, and said, "It's in a restaurant called Lao Yu's Restaurant in Chang'an City."

Qin Tian had never heard of this restaurant. It was obviously a not-so-famous restaurant. After asking this question, Qin Tian ordered someone to take Duan Yu down. Duan Yu became more and more confused. Just for asking this question?
After Duan Yu left, Qin Tian sent someone to call Chen Wen over.

At this time, Chen Wen was very calm, indescribably calm, as if what happened now had basically nothing to do with him.

"Do you know Old Yu's Restaurant?"

Hearing this question, Chen Wen raised his head, and after a while, he nodded again: "I know."

"Do you often drink there?"

"Go once every two or three days."

After asking this question, Qin Tian waved someone to take Chen Wen down. At this moment, Di Zhixun understood what was going on without Qin Tian needing to speak.

"The murderer must often go to Lao Yu's restaurant, so he was able to find out some news. You take someone to Lao Yu's restaurant, and investigate all the guests when Duan Yu and Chen Wen went, and see if there is no overlap. , but this matter must be kept secret, and must not be known by anyone.”

After Qin Tian ordered, Di Zhixun nodded quickly and said, "Duke Qin, don't worry, now that we have a direction, we should have no problem finding the murderer."

Qin Tian nodded, and said: "Okay, let's go to investigate quickly, the investigation has a result, we still have to plan to capture him."
