Chapter 132 The Corpse by the Lake

After silently thinking for a while, Hua Rujin raised her head again and asked, "Where is Father Tang's body now?"

"It was only found for a few hours. The body is still by the lake, and the local security guards have sent people to stay there to guard it."

Yan Huaqing replied truthfully.

From what she meant, it was obvious that she didn't trust her, so she frowned: "Ms. Hua can't trust me? This young master can be regarded as representing countless lawsuits for others, and has participated in many criminal and prison cases by the government. This person is dead. Whether it was murder or accidental death, I'm not sure."

Hua Rujin was even more puzzled: "It's even more unreasonable for Mr. Yan to find me for such a trivial matter."

"Hey, let's put it this way, Tang Ling has an old relationship with my mother's family, and they are close relatives. Although he has not returned yet, the housekeeper in his family insists on me doing justice for Mr. Tang, and suing the Dibao and Nagano Village. of the villagers were deliberately murdered."

Yan Huaqing's face became even more bitter: "I originally thought that Tang Ling was full of crimes all his life, and he was used to running rampant in the countryside. It is not impossible for someone to murder his father to vent his anger, but I went there to check. The water flow of Yangming Lake is stable. The color of the body can be identified, and it is true that it has only been soaked in water for a few hours. There is no possibility of throwing the body elsewhere, and there is no trace of murder. How can I uphold justice.”

Hua Rujin savored the information in his words carefully.

If people are murdered and then thrown into the lake, there will be clues.

And even if the villagers of Nagano village hated Tang Ling, there was no need to vent their anger on his father.

In this way, I can't vent my anger, and I can't get any benefits. If I don't do it well, I will take my own life.

If he really harbored a deep hatred and already had the idea of ​​dying together, he would naturally kill Tang Ling directly.

After thinking about it, a thought suddenly flashed in her mind: "What's wrong with Tang Ling and the landowner of Nagano Village?"

"There is no holiday."

Yan Huaqing shook his head, and suddenly thought of something: "I haven't spent much time in Jiangling City these few years, but I heard from my mother that Tang Ling has recently taken a fancy to Nagano Village and wants to move the entire village Build a private villa."

Before he finished speaking, Hua Rujin realized something: "From this point of view, it is very clear that Tang Ling just wanted to blackmail the whole village with his father's death."

"Exactly."

Yan Huaqing was very pleased with her comprehension ability: "I guess this was just a coincidence, but it just gave Tang Ling a reason to blackmail the villagers."

"Let's go and see the situation before making a decision."

Hua Rujin hesitated and replied.

Right now, she couldn't be sure.

Although Tang Ling was a bully, his father was innocent after all. If this man was really murdered, it would be unjustifiable for him to protect the murderer against his conscience.

Yan Huaqing doesn't have a clue right now, but wants to see how this girl handles this matter satisfactorily.

When the carriage arrived at the entrance of the village, because the village road was narrow, we could only get off the carriage and go on foot.

The two entered the village and walked along Yangming Lake for a certain distance before arriving at the scene of the incident.

The Dibao led the villagers around the lake, all of whom were in a state of distress. When they saw Yan Huaqing's return, they rushed up and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Yan, what's the matter? Do you want to report it to the government immediately?"

Yan Huaqing turned his gaze to Hua Rujin, and introduced with a light smile, "This is Miss Hua who worked for Yezhi County before."

When they heard that it was Miss Hua from the county, everyone came forward to compliment her in awe.

Hua Rujin looked around vigilantly, and asked Di Bao in a low voice, "Where are the people from the Tang family?"

"The butler of the Tang family has returned to the mansion to inform Tang Ling that he is back."

Di Bao replied truthfully.

Hua Rujin then went to the lake to look around carefully, and then went to check the corpse.

Judging from the appearance of the corpse, the complexion was still somewhat ruddy, the blood had not completely coagulated, and many white foams could be seen in front of the nose and mouth, and the corpse spots were light red.

Furthermore, the corpse did not show any signs of injury, and there was no possibility of murder and throwing the corpse.

Turning my eyes to the lake again, I saw a narrow stone bridge without guardrails in the center of the lake, and the direction of the water flow was exactly from the side of the stone bridge.

She roughly came to the conclusion that if the possibility of murder was ruled out, then only the old man fell into the water while crossing the stone bridge and followed the current to the lake.

After glancing at Yan Huaqing, Hua Rujin looked at Di Bao and whispered, "Please take a step to talk."

Afterwards, the three of them came to a reed, and Hua Rujin continued to ask, "When did Master Tang disappear?"

"I heard from the steward of the Tang family that Mr. Tang drank a few glasses of wine at home last night. He couldn't sleep at night. He said he went out for a walk and didn't return until dawn."

The Dibao raised his eyebrows: "The villagers found Master Tang's body by the lake this morning."

"Who found Master Tang's body?"

Hua Rujin asked again.

Dibao waved towards the distance, and a stout man rushed over obediently.

"This is Chen Shan, a villager from my village. It is the body he found by the lake."

As soon as Di Bao finished speaking, Chen Shan explained with a look of fear on his face: "I was in the city with my wife last night to celebrate my father-in-law's birthday, and I just returned this morning. It was a dead body, and when I came to inspect it, I realized it was Mr. Tang, and I immediately told the local security guard."

"I have just sent someone to the city to verify this matter. Chen Shan did come back from the city in the morning. Many people have seen the whereabouts of the couple. There was no suspicious person in the village last night. Every household I rested at night, and when Master Tang went out, he didn't bring any valuables with him."

Di Bao didn't want to wrong the good guy, so he made a statement to Hua Rujin.

"This matter must be reported to the government immediately."

Hua Rujin pondered for a moment, then quickly ordered: "Please keep the pen and paper."

Dibao still had some doubts about her ability, and looked at Yan Huaqing hesitantly.

"Go get ready."

Yan Huaqing urged without thinking.

Dibao had no choice but to fetch pens and ink according to the wishes of the two of them, and worried that Hua Rujin would go to the bully Tang Ling, so he pooled 200 taels of silver and handed them to her, saying in an awkward manner: "Miss Hua, the village Li really can't afford too much money, so you accept the 200 taels for the time being, and use it as a bonus, if it is not enough, I will find a way."

"You don't have to worry about the matter of silver, just focus on the important things first."

Hua Rujin was concentrating on thinking about how to write the official statement, and didn't think about money at all.

Looking up at Dibao, the questioning eyes seemed to be plotting against him, so he took half of it and put it in his arms, and said with a smile: "My money is not that expensive, now everyone in Dibao can rest assured. , I will only truthfully report the matter to the government for everyone."

After speaking, continue to write the report.

As soon as he finished writing, Dibao looked at the words on the paper and showed suspicion: "This corpse was clearly found at the mouth of the lake. Why did Miss Hua write that it was found in the lake?"
