Imperial City Investigative Department

Chapter 26 Persuasion (Part [-])
Now that the bones have been dug out one by one, Jiang Shan's mind is full of thoughts on how to get rid of the crime. As long as the old couple can't be found, with only a few bones, he will at most be responsible for negligence and give more money to the detectives. People in the department may not need to report. Jiang Shan feels that he has lived for more than 50 years and has never met anyone who doesn't like money.

Reassuring himself in this way, Jiang Shan stood up, and he walked to Wu Chen's side, his pale face was full of flattery, and he said:

"There is such a thing in Anping County. Thanks to you, I will order someone to investigate strictly. I will also trouble the two of you to go to the county government. Give me the opportunity to thank you very much."

Wu Chen looked at the bones in the courtyard, and his heart was turbulent. Last night, when he heard about Jiang Shan's evil deeds, he realized why Yulian asked him to kill Jiang Shan. He deserved to be killed!

This is different from the investigation in the previous life, when he had little chance to know who the murderer was in advance, he needed to visit and verify, reason and judge, needed a report from the technical department, needed various evidences, and finally identified the murderer.

But now he knows who the real murderer is, but he also needs to produce evidence, how to start to investigate?

Wu Chen was thinking about this question, but he didn't seem to hear Jiang Shan's words at all.

The second year of high school has already been fooled, he knows that there is something strange about this house, Chen Zhong ordered him to accompany Wu Chen on this trip, he said, no matter who Wu Chen wants to investigate or how, the second year of high school only needs to help Wu Chen open the way, but the second year of high school Unexpectedly, there are so many bones buried in this yard.

I saw a lot of dead people in the second year of high school, and I saw corpses piled up in mountains a few times, but they were all in the wild, and it was the first time I saw this kind of dead people buried in the yard.

"Do you need to find a teacher to come here first?" The sophomore turned around and asked Jiang Shan.

"It should be so! This place is not clean, the two of you still..."

"Don't worry about it. I'll take a look at the post-mortem. I'll tell you something." Wu Chen turned to look at Jiang Shan with sharp eyes, "I'll investigate this case to the end! If I dared to do it, I'd do it." Think about what it will be like when your head moves."

"What, what does this mean? Is there any evidence that I did it?"

"Where did I say that you did it?"

"you……"

"If you want to prove it, it's not difficult. Two days is enough! You can eat whatever you want in these two days. If you should tell your family well, try to explain it once and for all."

"I'm at most guilty of negligence, how did I get into your mouth..."

Wu Chen turned around, asked with a smirk in a low voice, "How do you think I know there are bones in this courtyard?"

Jiang Shan looked at Wu Chen in horror.

"Go back and think about it carefully, and then wash your neck clean."

Jiang Shan sat down on the ground.

……

Jiang Shan was carried back by the yamen servants. After Wu finished his work, Wu Chen did not give Jiang Shan a chance to explain anything to Wu, so he was carried away.

Wu Zuo is an old man. He knew that the person standing on the porch was a member of the Imperial City Investigative Department. He did not dare to be negligent. He inspected the seven sets of bones very carefully. He did not finish the inspection until the sun went down, but he did not inspect it. There is no difference, what Wu Zuo can tell is not as good as Wu Chen knows.

The second year of high school had been sitting on the bench, but apart from inspecting the bones with Wu Zuo, Wu Chen had been standing with a solemn expression.

"What are you doing next?" The sophomore got up and asked.

"Bring all the bones back to the house."

The second year of high school was taken aback for a moment, and then said anxiously: "Are you crazy? Si Zun lives in the courtyard."

"Then you order someone to go back and ask Si Zun where it is safe? Anyway, you can't take it back to the county government."

After Wu Chen finished speaking, he scratched his forehead. He has no rights in his hands now, and there is no one he can trust around him. The big head can only be regarded as a child. The verification process is really a headache.

Wu Chen sighed, and then asked, "Do you have anyone you trust? Seal this place first, and I'll go back and ask Si Zun how to arrange it."

The second year of high school couldn't wish for it, so he quickly recruited a few detectives from the investigation department to look at the bones in the hospital, but they didn't let Wu Zuo go back, so Wu Chen went back to the house to find Chen Zhong.

……

Chen Zhong was discussing things with others, Wu Chen stood on the porch and waited for a while, thinking of catching the little eunuch to ask when he came out, if Chen Zhong still needed some time, he would go back to the room to sit for a while and rest.

Unexpectedly, as soon as this idea was born, the little eunuch came out with a tacit understanding and told Wu Chen that he could go in.

When Wu Chen entered the room, three people just came out of the room. Two of them were older and the other younger. They didn't look like military generals. Wu Chen looked at them curiously, not forgetting to nod his head. The three of them also looked at them curiously. Wu Chen frowned at Wu Chen's nod.

Entering the room, I saw that Chen Zhong was not on the bed, but sitting on the recliner with his eyes closed.

"How?" Chen Zhong asked with his eyes closed.

Wu Chen immediately replied: "As I heard last night, a total of seven bones were found in the courtyard."

Chen Zhong suddenly opened his eyes, but instead of looking at Wu Chen, he just looked forward, and then muttered to himself: "There really are ghosts." Then he looked at Wu Chen and asked, "Is my room clean?"

Wu Chen knew in his heart that a person like Chen Zhong had countless lives in his hands, and it was normal to be afraid when he heard such things, but so what if he knew?Will he be merciful for the rest of his life?
Wu Chen sneered in his heart, but bowed and replied: "When people in the world have too much resentment when they die, they don't want to leave, but most of them stay where they are. Fortunately, the living can't see them, but they are just scaring themselves. Si Zun's house is clean now."

"Yes, you can see it." Chen Zhong slowly turned his head to look at Wu Chen.

"It may not be a good thing! Some people are born with a photographic memory, some people can lift a thousand catties when they grow up, some people can touch bones, some people can read physiognomy, no matter what kind of ability, they can be considered to support their families. Sleepless, frightened, and troubled are not doing any good."

Chen Zhong smiled and said, "Don't underestimate yourself, what you can do is very useful! Tell me, what do you want to do?"

"The bones can't be put in the county government. Jiang Shan will jump over the wall in a hurry. If there are no bones, even the Imperial City Detective Department will have no choice. This case has been turned around."

Chen Zhong didn't speak.

Wu Chen continued:

"If Jiang Shan is allowed to succeed this time, I'm afraid he will be more courageous in the future. If he is found out by others one day, he may also implicate Si Zun..."

"Don't mention me, just tell me what you want to do? Either ask a Taoist priest to come and collect the grieving ghost, or I will order someone to find someone from the East Road to investigate the case." Chen Zhong looked at it with a sullen face. Wu Chen said again: "I know you want to fulfill your wish to end the grieving ghost, so that you can know something about the mountain depression, but living people still have to live according to the rules... There is another way, which saves trouble, I can order people to take advantage of the night. Black killed Jiang Shan."

Wu Chen frowned.
