Demon detective

Chapter 25 Retribution
in the afternoon.

There was a strange scene in the Yanping County Yamen, people in twos and threes, whispering everywhere, they were all talking about the murder case that just happened in Wei Mansion.

And the focus of their discussion was not the bizarreness of the case, but the little detective who used unconventional means to solve the case.

"Wow, you didn't see it," said one of the yamen servants who was lucky enough to witness the process of solving the case, "Xu Zhen just kissed and dragged out that little maid!"

"No way? Are you really kissing? How did you kiss?"

"That's still fake, I've kissed several times, this kid is really a blessing. You know, those little maids are so handsome, and their buttocks are also very strong! Oh, I want It's good to have this ability..."

……

"Oh, you didn't see it, my hair is blown out," a policeman on the other side said happily to his colleagues, "It feels cold on the back, that's scary!"

"Really?" asked the other police officers, "Can that kid really exorcise ghosts? Isn't this too evil?"

"I didn't squeeze in at the time, but all the elders saw it," said the arrester, clapping his hands, "The daughter of Wei Yulang was originally a corpse, but under Xu Zhen's call, she actually spoke and told the truth." To Wei Yulang..."

"Really?" The others were dumbfounded, "Xu Zhen can still summon souls? Why didn't he see it before?"

"That's not it," said the arrester excitedly, "I saw this with my own eyes. I didn't expect that the real culprit was the mother of Wei Yulang's daughter! She's also from the Western Regions, and she looks so pretty..."

……

Looking at these whisperers, Chen Tiefeng shook his head, turned around and walked into the inner hall, closing the door behind him.

There was no one else in the inner hall, only the two county magistrates, and Cheng Xiao, the chief arrester.

"Master Song, we have arranged everything you ordered," Cheng Xiao reported to Song Zhilihui, "We have also found out everything that Xu Zhen said!"

"Oh?" Song Zhili hurriedly asked, "How is it? Is it true?"

"Well," Cheng Xiao nodded, "We asked a few of Qiu Batian's servants through our relationship. Indeed, Qiu Batian had been with the two singing prostitutes of the Jiaofang Division on the night of the incident, and it was impossible to kidnap other people. It is even more nonsense to talk about throwing women in the downtown area."

"That's right, my lord," Chen Tiefeng echoed, "Qiu Batian's carriage was parked at Zuixianju that morning, and it has not been touched at all. It cannot be done by them."

"Hmm...but..." Song Zhili pondered, "If the case is really filed for trial, the confessions of these people may not be valid at all, right?"

"Indeed," Chen Houlu said, stroking his beard, "They are all Qiu Batian's servants, so they naturally turn to their master, and their confessions have no effect in the court.

"I'm afraid that the mysterious murderer also thought of this and set up such a situation, right?"

"Those two singing girls..." Song Zhili thought of something, and immediately asked as a reminder.

"Even if the confessions of the two of them are valid, they are not convincing," Chen Houlu shook his head, "As we said before, even if Qiu Batian slept with two singing girls that night, it does not prevent him from kidnapping and raping other women.

"Master Song," Chen Houlu said, "Old man Li and his daughter are dead, this is called death without a fight, whoever wins depends on the strength of the two sides in the lawsuit!"

"Hmm..." Song Zhili thought about it carefully, and then asked Cheng Xiao, "Then... what about the body of Old Man Li's daughter?"

"My lord," Cheng Xiao hurriedly replied, "I've also confirmed this. The one that was destroyed by the fire was indeed a highly decomposed corpse, and it must have been dead for a long time!"

"Yes," Chen Tiefeng echoed, "there is a place on the clothes that has not been burnt clean. If you look closely, it is clearly a shroud. It may not be dug out from any grave."

"Oh?" Song Zhili asked, "Where is this corpse now?"

"It stinks," Cheng Xiao said, "We found a hidden place and buried it. Anyway, this thing is useless, so I'm afraid it's not appropriate to take it to Yizhuang!"

"Yes, you did the right thing." Song Zhili nodded, "Now that things have happened, we must not let others know that the one who was burned to death was not Old Man Li's daughter."

"Then..." Chen Houlu thought of something and asked, "Have you found out about Old Man Li's poisoning?"

Hearing this, Cheng Xiao and the two suddenly shook their heads helplessly.

"The punishment has already been used, and the two jailers refused to say anything," Cheng Xiao said, "We plan to check the relationship between the two of them."

"Well," Song Zhili nodded first, then sighed, "Oh, I feel that we will have to make a major decision soon!"

Song Zhili's so-called major decision naturally refers to the arrest of Qiu Batian, which is to remind Cheng Xiao to make preparations as soon as possible.

"By the way, my lord," Cheng Xiao thought of something, and asked, "I just heard that something happened to Wei Yulang's house? Why did you hear many people talking about Xu Zhen when you came in just now? Xu Zhen... What's wrong? ?”

"Hey?" Hearing this, Song Zhili hurriedly looked at Chen Houlu and asked, "Where is Master Xu?"

"Yeah," Chen Houlu spread his hands, "I didn't notice it either, where did he go?"

……

Wing On Street.

After noon, the market here is no longer lively.

Many stalls have been closed and there are few pedestrians.

At this moment, Xu Zhen was sitting on the steps under the archway, staring at the deserted street in a daze.

Although he came here now to investigate Qiu Batian's case, what he was thinking about was still what happened in Wei's mansion.

No wonder this Wei Yulang was listed as the first of the four villains in Yanping County. He looked gentle and gentle, but his heart was so extreme and ruthless.

From this point of view, he has no relationship with that Mrs. Wei, but only regards Mrs. Wei as a tool for revenge.

However, there is a cause and effect in the dark, and it is because of his excessive indulgence that he lost his fertility and was unable to fulfill his wish to have a son.

Now that she has suffered the pain of bereavement, it can be regarded as retribution! ?

Thinking of it, Mrs. Wei is quite pitiful, the country is gone, the family is gone, and it is only now that she understands that it is not someone else who caused the ruin of her country and family, but her husband.

This kind of blow is already too hurtful, but now he is reduced to a prisoner and murderer. I don't know, what will happen to this former Princess Rama?

Of course, the same pitiful thing is that maid, Sang'er, who obviously worked very hard to live, but was burdened by her family, and was used miserably in the end, and lost her life.

It is precisely because of empathy that Xu Zhen asks Wei Yulang to honor Mrs. Wei's promise to Sang'er.

As long as Wei Yulang compensates Sang'er's family, at least the child will not die so unworthily.

In fact, Xu Zhenxin knew that if he had forced Wei Yulang to pay off the debts of Wansheng Casino, Wei Yulang would probably not refuse.

As long as he said a word, it was very possible for him to live a life without debt.

However, Xu Zhen would not do that, nor would he be able to do that.

For one thing, he didn't want to be with someone like Wei Yulang.

Second, he wants to use his own method to solve the debt problem.Because Cui Xiaotian, a bully, also made him unhappy.

Xu Zhen knows that his power is very limited, and he cannot change this unfair world by himself, but it is still possible to eradicate these bullies who cause harm to the world, right?
