20 years of the Republic of China

Chapter 212 Detective Captain Zhao

At noon the next day, Fengtian Patrol Headquarters.

In the autopsy room, the body of the young aunt of the Bai family was laid out on the elm table.

After the new policy of the imperial court, those responsible for autopsy work were renamed examiners.But Lao Shang is a conservative person and still likes others to call him Zuo Zuo.He had been dealing with corpses for half his life, and he couldn't understand. He was obviously doing the same job, so how could he become more advanced by changing his name?
The old Shang first crushed garlic, ginger, and vinegar, spread it on a cloth, and covered his mouth and nose. Then, under the gaze of others, he came to Bai Yuqing's body, which was bleeding from the seven orifices, and examined it from top to bottom.

"Cough cough!"

Zhao Yongcai stood at the door with two followers, frowned and coughed twice, indicating to the other party to speed up the progress.

The old businessman still took his time, turned around, opened the small wooden box, and spread out various autopsy tools on the table.

"Hey, can you hurry up?" Zhao Yongcai urged.

The old businessman came to the door with small steps and said with a respectful smile: "Captain, the autopsy process will probably have to wait for a while. How about you go back and rest first, and wait for me to write the copy before sending it to you?"

"What else are you testing for? The person is lying there, I can tell he is poisoned!"

"Captain Yingming, the body was bleeding from all the orifices, but there were no external injuries. It did look like he was poisoned and died. However, what kind of poison was it? Was it poisoned once or twice? Was it someone who poisoned the body, or was the drug conflict, such as The Eighteenth Rebellion was so negligent that it needs to be checked slowly."

"Just tell me if it's poisoning. I don't care about the other mess. I'll just leave you here to sort it out. Don't you understand?"

The old Shang thought for a while, then bowed and smiled: "The captain is wise, he indeed died of poisoning."

"Both of you, did you hear it?" Zhao Yongcai asked to the left and right.

"Captain! We heard it, Wu Zuo said that the deceased died of poisoning!"

Zhao Yongcai raised his belt and said happily: "Very good! Old Shang, you continue to do your work. You two, follow me to interrogate the prisoner!"

…………

In the interrogation room, Chu Liangsheng, as the person who reported the matter to the official, was naturally the first to be tried.

After briefly recounting the incident, Chu Liangsheng sat across from him, waiting for questions.

After hearing this, Zhao Yongcai lit a cigarette and asked, "You just said that the deceased Bai Yuqing was very emotional yesterday, as if she suspected that Ma, who was in Bai Guoping's house, wanted to poison her?"

Chu Liangsheng nodded blankly: "Although the young aunt and grandma didn't say it clearly, judging from the connotation of the words and the reaction on her face, it probably meant that. However, now it seems that the bowl of white fungus soup is not poisonous, anyway, Xiaoxue After drinking it, nothing happened until now.”

"Oh, that's what happened!" Zhao Yongcai elbowed his subordinate, "Old Xia, remember, the housekeeper Chu Liangsheng said that before the deceased Bai Yuqing died, he suspected that Ma wanted to poison her."

"Huh? Captain Zhao, I mean, that's probably what it means." Chu Liangsheng explained, "This is just my guess."

Zhao Yongcai waved his hand: "Why did the deceased suspect Ma? The two of them had a quarrel before?"

Chu Liangsheng did not dare to hide it and said truthfully: "There are indeed many quarrels about the fight for the leadership."

"Okay! Very good! Please step back." Zhao Yongcai shouted at the door, "Come here, bring Ma up!"

After a while, Ma was taken to the interrogation room like a lost dog.

As soon as she saw the official appointment, the concubine of the eldest house didn't have any dignity at all. She refused to sit down even if she was seated, so she immediately threw her to the ground in mourning.

"Master, I was wronged!"

"Shrew, shut up! I don't care about what I'm good at and what I'm bad about now." Captain Zhao threatened in a stern voice, "I haven't said anything yet, and you're just here shouting that you were wronged. Are you feeling guilty? Say it!"

Ma said in a panic: "No, no! Master, Bai Yuqing's death really has nothing to do with me!"

"Bold and dare to speak harshly!"

Yes, if you cry out for injustice, you will be said to have a guilty conscience; if you don’t, it will be said that you are tough-tongued!
Ma knew that the situation was not good, but still wanted to try his best, so he said: "Sir, Chu Liangsheng's pretty face said that I poisoned the white fungus soup, but Bai Yuqing's daughter drank that bowl of soup, and she is still alive and kicking now. , how can you say I poisoned you?"

"Hasn't the soup that the deceased's daughter drank been dug out?"

"This, this is quite..."

"That's why the deceased's daughter didn't die."

"Of course she won't die!"

"Oh, that means you do know that the white fungus soup is poisonous!" Zhao Yongcai scolded Lao Xia again, "Hurry up and write it down."

Only then did Ma realize that the other party had dug a hole for her, and quickly explained: "Master, that's not what I meant! There is no poison in the Tremella soup, so how could you die?"

"Then where did you put the poison?"

"It's unfair! I didn't poison you at all!"

"You're still being so stubborn!" Zhao Yongcai slapped the table and glared, "Come on, call all the other concubines of Bai Guoping over here!"

After a while, the entire interrogation room became chaotic.

People are afraid of officials. This is a survival instinct passed down from generation to generation.

The concubines didn't know what the situation was. As soon as they entered the room and saw all kinds of torture instruments, they immediately cried and cried out that they were wronged.

Zhao Yongcai cursed for a long time before getting these girls to stop. "You all are honest, so of course I won't embarrass you. Just answer whatever you ask! The first question I want to ask is whether the Ma family and the deceased Bai Yuqing are fighting over who is in charge of the house. Are there always arguments?"

All the servants in the family knew about this matter, and of course the concubines did not dare to lie.

"Sir, there are often disputes."

"Then did she say anything about harming the deceased? Think about it carefully, even if it is just a casual sentence, including words such as 'choked to death', 'died while going out', 'choked to death when drinking water', etc. Calculate!"

The concubines looked at each other, and they still barely hesitated.

Finally, it was the second wife's concubine who spoke up: "Sir, she, she did say that the head of a big family fights for power to the death, and she also said that she would be rude to the young aunt. They all heard it."

"Why are you so rude? Do you want to poison him?" Zhao Yongcai asked excitedly, his eyes gleaming.

"This... I haven't said this." The second wife explained, "At least it hasn't been said explicitly, but we all know that my young aunt has a gun, so I guess if she does it, she should use poison."

"Okay! Lao Xia, please note that the second wife's concubine said that Ma previously said she would poison the victim."

"No, no, sir, that was just my guess. I don't know the specific situation."

Why doesn't this kid get into trouble?
Zhao Yongcai smacked his lips and reminded: "Don't blame me for not telling you. When I interrogated your servants before, the old concierge said that you all asked him about the whereabouts of the deceased together the night before. I now suspect that you They may all be accomplices, it depends on whether you are willing to accept the crime and make meritorious service."

Speaking of this, the concubines immediately put down their worries.

As the saying goes, if people are not for themselves, heaven and earth will perish.

For a time, everyone rushed to accuse Ma, wishing that he would be buried until death, and even recite all the dirty deeds that his ancestors had done for generations.

In just a moment, the image of a vicious lady who deceived her superiors and deceived her subordinates appeared on the paper.

Although Ma is indeed not a law-abiding person, these remarks are inevitably exaggerated.

Lao Xia, who was sitting next to Captain Zhao, recorded the confession and signed and stamped it. Naturally, it was a matter of course.

Ma knelt in the corner, trembling with anger. Knowing that he was doomed, he had no choice but to turn his anger into obscene words and cursed: "You shameless sluts, gang up to harm me, wait, you guys They all must die a good death!"

Not to be outdone, the aunts and wives turned to look at Zhao Yongcai and said, "Sir, look, she is usually like this. As long as she is slightly unhappy, she will immediately start threatening us. It's scary."

"Sir, we are all under her power!"

"Your Majesty, please take this as a warning and punish this poisonous woman as soon as possible!"

"Okay, okay!" Zhao Yongcai said impatiently, "Come here, take them all down! Lao Xia, go and hand over the confession to the superiors, and let the brothers in the bureau go out for a while."

Lao Xia was quite rigorous. After collecting the confession, he asked: "Captain, we have the personal evidence, but this physical evidence..."

"Physical evidence?" Zhao Yongcai stood up and said, "Wait a moment, I will get you the physical evidence."

After saying that, leaving the interrogation room, Zhao Yongcai pushed open the back door of the General Administration and waited for a cigarette when he saw Guan Wei walking over from not far away, looking left and right.

"Captain Zhao, thank you for your hard work again this time."

Guan Wei secretly put the small porcelain bottle in his palm into Zhao Yongcai's hand.

He looked a little depressed. Although there was no regret, there was no joy of victory on his face.

Zhao Yongcai put the small porcelain bottle into his pocket and said with a nonchalant smile: "Hey! Don't worry, this is not the first time we have cooperated. However, I have to give you a compliment, Liu, because you asked me to deal with the aftermath this time. It's much more stable than before. Okay, you know it will save me some trouble."

In any case, this case at least has complete witnesses and sufficient motives, which is far more convincing than nonsense like "bullet bending".

Guan Wei grinned and laughed twice.

In fact, all this was a plan by his nephew-in-law, and Guan Wei was just responsible for running errands.

Jiang Chenghai gave the idea, Hu Xiaoyan was responsible for the planning, and Jiang Xiaodao naturally had his own errands.

However, poisoning is more common in the hands of women. Although Guan Wei is a Buddhist, he also has a grudge against this method in his heart.

"Captain Zhao, this is just the beginning. The rest will depend on your help!"

"Do you need to remind me? I have always been trustworthy. Don't worry, I have already got the list of the young aunts and grandmothers of the Bai family, but I have to remind you not to make too much noise!"

Guan Wei nodded: "Don't worry."

The Bai family is doomed, but it must be both morally justified and a satisfactory explanation to the government. The combination of both is the difference between a leader and a reckless man.

The reason why Hu Xiaoyan's strategy was successful was that she discovered the civil strife in the Bai family from the mouths of her two uncles.

This was why she insisted on sending her two uncles to the Bai family's outer residence without any presumption.

No matter what time, the family conflicts must not be allowed to be seen by the enemy.
