I'm a detective for Dongchang

Chapter 106 Interrogation
Yuan Yanxi didn't express anything, but glared fiercely at the subordinate who was going to invite someone, and asked: "Master Hou, please sit down first, what do you mean by that, did Xie Manrou do something before?
Xie Zhanbai: "Director Yuan, is my wife here too?"

Yuan Yanxi winked at Donghai, and Donghai walked out immediately.

While waiting, Yuan Yanxi looked at this Lord Hou.

His wife and daughter were taken to Dongchang without informing him. As a husband, Xie Zhanbai was extremely calm and cooperative.Wearing a suit of armor, with a gentle and refined attitude, it is too kind.

"Master Hou, you seem to have a premonition about what happened today?"

"I have been in the army for a long time. I don't know what she has done. Ten years ago, a woman met my wife and daughter on the street and said that Manrou would die when she was seven years old. If she didn't resolve it, the Xie family might die Catastrophe. At that time, Manrou was just five years old. Two years later, the Taoist sent her back, and she became, a little strange..."

"Oh? What a strange method."

"She stays in her own room and never asks anyone to light a lamp. She just sits alone in the dark. She even made a room for herself, and no one is allowed in, not even me and her mother. Manrou, she..." Xie Zhanbai Some self-deprecating, "She hasn't talked to me for a long time. She blames me in her heart. She has been a child with a high heart since she was a child. She has always been worried about the fact that her family put her in the Taoist temple. Occasionally, she would say, yes I drove her crazy."

"But." Xie Zhanbai swept away the sluggish tone just now, and said with certainty: "Manrou is not that murderer, no. Please ask the factory supervisor to check it out."

Just as he was talking, Sun Shangxiang walked in following Donghai.

At this moment, she has long lost the pride and arrogance of the past, her eyes are dull, and her expression is dull.

"Ma'am..." Xie Zhanbai walked over and put his arms around her shoulders.

Sun Shangxiang's expression froze, his body tensed instantly, as if resisting, and it took a long time for him to slowly regain his clarity.

"Master Hou?"

"Ma'am, it's me."

Yuan Yanxi was straightforward: "Mrs. Hou, did Xie Manrou learn acupuncture from you?"

Xie Zhanbai nodded to Sun Shangxiang, but who knows, she pushed her husband away, smoothed her hair with her hands, straightened her clothes, and said, "You don't need to ask, Mr. Factory Superintendent, I killed everyone. I have nothing to do with Manrou." anything."

Yuan Yanxi sneered, as expected.

And Xie Zhanbai was obviously taken aback, he didn't expect his wife to say such shocking words.

"Mrs. Hou, where do you think this is?" Yuan Yanxi became cold, and the surroundings felt three feet frozen.

Xie Zhanbai quickly grabbed his wife: "Ma'am!"

Sun Shangxiang shook off her husband's hand and reiterated again: "That's right, I killed people. Rou'er doesn't know how to use needles at all, I did it all."

"Mrs. Hou, do you know what kind of punishment you will get if you take the blame for someone else's crime?"

"Director Yuan, my wife has never seen such a scene. She was stimulated for a while, so please sell me some thin noodles. I'll ask someone to take her home."

Yuan Yanxi ignored them and walked outside them.

Sun Shangxiang's heart-piercing cry continued to be heard behind him: "It's me, I'm the murderer, I'm the murderer!!"

Interrogating Xie Manrou, Yuan Yanxi personally sits in the town. Although Lu Xizhi is still in a coma, he has become conscious. He ordered Miao Xiaowu to guard her in the hospital and take good care of her.

The moment Xie Manrou came in, even Yuan Yanxi couldn't help but let out a sigh.

The prisoners he had interrogated were not thousands, but hundreds. When they came in, there were many well-dressed and dog-like people, but it was the first time for someone like Xie Manrou to be so indifferent.

She was sitting there, her long black hair hanging gracefully behind her like a waterfall, her makeup just right, her eyebrows beautiful, her skin fair and rosy, almost no different from when she was attending a grand banquet, she calmly looked directly at Yuan Yanxi, At the same time, it makes people feel that she doesn't care who is in front of her at all.

Donghai and Xifeng also looked at each other, knowing that this would be a tough nut to crack.

Caught by Yuan Yanxi on the spot, and found a silver needle from her body, Xie Manrou remained unmoved in the face of those witnesses' testimonies.

She didn't say a word, nor refused any questions, and didn't even have a trace of resistance. She took every question very seriously, and then gave her own answers in a clear and melodious voice.

"Silver needle? My lord really wronged me. Isn't it normal for my mother to teach me some medical skills? In the Dajin Code, it didn't say that girls can't study medicine, right?"

Yuan Yanxi didn't answer, but just watched her perform with cold eyes.

"You must have also found medical books, right? No one else will go into my house, and the things must still be there. If you searched carefully enough, there should be some medical books in the pile of medical chapters I often use. The acupoint maps for relieving pain were taught to me intermittently by my mother."

"Xie Manrou, your father said that you have hysteria, that you often go crazy, do you think he is right?" Yuan Yanxi suddenly raised this question.

A trace of sharpness flashed across Xie Manrou's eyes: "I have hysteria? Hehe, actually, I always thought that my father was the one with hysteria. Not only did he suffer from insanity, but he also suffered from severe mania, which he often couldn't control. For his behavior, he even beat his mother, why don't you go and interrogate him first?"

Donghai received hints from Yuan Yanxi's eyes: "Xie Manrou, I advise you not to deny it anymore, we have already learned that you took the opportunity to go to Pan Yutong's room when he was drunk at a party the day before Pan Yutong's death, and according to the witness's testimony , You looked flustered at the time, you have something in your hand."

"Yes, I went into Pan Yutong's room, but I was also drunk at the time. Is it normal to go to the wrong room? What do you mean by looking flustered? It's just that I couldn't walk steadily after drinking, and my hands waved wildly a few times. I almost can’t remember it.”

"Can't remember? Then do you remember, after Zhong Ling was given an injection by you, you tricked Zhong Ling into Qinghu Lake under the guise of seeking medical treatment for her, and pushed her into the lake while she was unaware?"

"Oh, then do you know that I took her to see a famous doctor with good intentions, but she didn't know what to do, said halfway to see a friend, and threw me on the street, making me confused."

Dong Hai was stunned for a moment, speechless for a while.

"Why did your lord make up such a story to frame me?" Xie Manrou continued to ask, still speaking in such a soft voice.

The woman's voice was like a thread, and she really looked a little wronged. Dong Hai, who had been in the battlefield for a long time, was tortured, and she blushed all of a sudden.

But Xie Manrou didn't continue to entangle on this issue unreasonably, she resumed the topic that was interrupted by Yuan Yanxi just now:

"Whether you believe it or not, I know acupuncture just because of curiosity and fun, and my mother often treats my father with acupuncture, which makes me feel that studying medicine is an advantage, and it will be very useful in the future. That's all. Tell me Killing people with needles is simply unreasonable."

Before Dong Hai could speak, Yuan Yanxi suddenly spoke. He changed his tone and said jokingly, "Xie Manrou, do you think people like Feng Wuxi and Pan Yutong are really despicable?"

Xie Manrou tilted her head slightly, thought for a while, and said, "Yes."

"Then do you think it's meaningless for these lowly and despicable people to live?"

"Hehe, so the adults think so too?"
