Dali Temple Small Dining Room 2

Chapter 39 Barbecue ([-])

His voice was hoarse, and his dark face was full of fatigue and tiredness.Even though he was only seventeen years old and not yet weak, his whole body was lifeless, his drooping eyebrows were raised, and his eyes were full of indifference.

"I didn't kill anyone." He lowered his head and murmured.

This justification is too pale and weak, to kill or not to kill is not something that can be explained by a simple justification.

Lin Fei looked at Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan understood, stepped out, and asked: "He Xiaoniang died two years ago, and you only started to do it. You only recently discovered that Yan San and others were the murderers who killed her back then. When did you find out?"

Lu Qing looked at Liu Yuan, paused, and was about to speak, when Lin Fei suddenly said, "But you found it when you sent the sacrificial ceremony into the river?"

He Xiaoniang who had the accident drowned, and if there is any evidence, it is very likely that she fell to the bottom of the river.When offering sacrifices to the river gods, they have to dive into the bottom of the river.

What makes a good swimmer almost drown?When you see something unbelievable.

Lu Qing lowered his eyes and was silent for a while, then sighed lowly, and said: "I saw her purse in the sand at the bottom of the river, and I would never admit the wrong embroiderer of the purse, and there is a piece of jade pendant in that purse. "

The jade pendant was well-made, and it was obviously not the property of He Xiaoniang or the He family. After he was rescued, he began to look for the owner of the jade pendant.

"I asked a lot of pawnbrokers before I found a discerning one who said it belonged to Mr. Yan San, the censor Zhongcheng." Lu Qing said, "I didn't believe it at first, and I secretly looked at Mr. Yan several times , he looks gentle and polite, and his wife is dignified and generous from a famous family, so he doesn't look like that kind of person."

Can be false can not be true.How long can it be installed?After following for a long time, he discovered another side of this gentle and polite Mr. Yan.

"He doesn't like prostitution, he finds it boring, but prefers girls from good families who come from poor backgrounds." Lu Qing smiled wryly, and said, "Every one he chooses is specially selected."

Thinking of what happened to He Xiaoniang, Liu Yuan and the others suddenly realized: they understand the reason why Yan Sanxun and other women attacked.

If they single out women with backgrounds like He Xiaoniang, on the one hand, such women are innocent to Yan Sanna and the others;Those with good face will complain that the woman's humiliation is an embarrassment to the family, while those with good money can spend some money to get rid of it.

"There are still many accidents." Lu Qing said, "Some people even took the money and sold those girls to Yan San as maidservants."

Of course, this maid is no ordinary maid, if something happens, even the family doesn't care, who else will care?

However, although she sympathizes with Lu Qing, she feels that Yan San and others are really hateful.But as an official of Dali Temple, I have to continue to ask questions.

Liu Yuan looked at Lu Qing, and continued to ask: "Did you find Liu Xiaolang and the others after following Yan San?"

Hearing this, Lu Qing shook his head and said, "I don't know about Liu Xiaolang and the others."

how is this possible?Liu Yuan Ting frowned, and was about to continue to ask him why he didn't know, when Lin Fei suddenly said, "You only found Yan San through the jade pendant?"

Lu Qing nodded, "Mmm".

Lin Fei said again: "On the day of Yan San's accident, did you go to Yan San's private boat?"

Lu Qing said, "I've been there."

"Then kill Yan San and drown him in the bathtub?" Lin Fei asked again.

Hearing this, Lu Qing got excited, shook his head again and again, and said, "I didn't drown him, he was already dead when I went in!"

how is this possible?When Liu Yuan, Bai Zhu and others heard this, they couldn't help frowning, and Liu Yuan even opened his mouth, hesitant to speak.

Lin Fei did not refute Lu Qing's words, but continued to ask him: "You hit that stick on Li Yuan, the king of Pingxi Xiaojun?"

Lu Qing, who was excited, was agitated, and suddenly fell silent. After a long while, he said: "...It's me."

"Why hit him?" Lin Fei said.

A trace of shame appeared on Lu Qing's face, but he opened his mouth to explain: "I was indeed planning to board the boat and kill Yan San that day. But when I got on the boat, I saw Yan San died in the bathtub. Before I could react, Yan San's boat collided with a private boat next to it. When I heard the sound coming from the cabin, I was startled and realized that there were other people on board. When I was about to jump off the boat and escape, I saw Li Yuan running over He recognized me at a glance. When he saw Yan San inside, he was startled. He asked me why I was here, and I told the story of He Xiaoniang being killed by Yan San. I hit him with a stick and left him here to confuse my sight. I want me to take this opportunity to run away and leave the capital..."

Of course, the final result was that Lu Qing did not escape.

"She...she is still here, where am I going?" Lu Qinghong said, "I tried to leave, but I walked for a day and a night, but... I couldn't let her go, so I came back. "

Liu Yuan and the others looked at each other, their brows furrowed deeply.

Judging by Lu Qing's appearance, it doesn't seem like he is lying.But the officials of Dali Temple can't act on their own whims when handling cases, and they can't look like a good person, so they really treat people as good people.

Evidence is what matters.

According to what Lu Qing said, he didn't kill anyone at all, and Li Yuan stayed behind to confuse the view and help Lu Qing escape.

There must be someone else who killed Yan San.

But... what about the evidence?Who knows that this is not Lu Qing's evasive words?

After pondering for a while, Lin Fei asked Lu Qing, "When did you board the boat that day?"

Lu Qing gave a wry smile and said, "It's not time."

Lin Fei asked: "Is there any witness?"

Lu Qing was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't understand why he suddenly asked this question, but he still said: "I drowned when I delivered the sacrifice, and Li, who was in charge of the river god's sacrifice, was worried that there would be such a mistake next time, so he deliberately I picked out a few who were equally good at swimming and practiced swimming with me. I waited until noon and was released at the end of the day. If witnesses are required, they are the witnesses."

Therefore, he boarded the ship in the future.

But... this is useless!Bai Zhu subconsciously lowered his head and flipped through the file. The time of Yan San's death given by Wu Zuo was between noon and half a quarter before midnight.

Even if there are witnesses, it can't prove that Lu Qing didn't kill anyone, and half a moment is enough to drown someone to death.

Lin Fei didn't say much, just glanced at him, and left the cell with the file.

Liu Yuan and others hurriedly followed, and when they walked out of the Dali Temple prison, they heard Lin Fei say, "Go and find out whether what Lu Qing said is true, if it is true, the murderer must not be him."

Liu Yuan and the others were shocked when they heard this sentence: "Lin Shaoqing, why?"

Lin Fei turned his head to look at them, and said two words lightly: "Drug!"

Drugged?The few people were startled when they heard it, but when they remembered what Shuangxi had confessed, they suddenly understood.

Judging from the corpses of those people, there is no sign of being forced to drown, and it is very likely that they drowned after being drugged.

The work of Dali Temple did not find traces of drugs in the stomachs and noses of Yan San and others.

If this is the case, the drug should not have been mixed with tea or eaten, and it was most likely scattered in the air.If the drug sprinkled in the air has not evaporated, as long as it enters the cabin, it is possible to be hit.

But according to Shuangxi's confession, they entered the cabin and were not recruited, so the drug must have evaporated by then.

When Shuangxi and the others boarded the ship, there were other people to testify that it was half an hour before the end of the day. If the drug had evaporated at that time, the time of Yan San's death would naturally be pushed forward, and it would be before the end of the day, within noon. up.

And within noon, if Lu Qing had someone to testify, it would be able to prove that he was not the real murderer of Yan San.
