Great Lawyer

Chapter 126 Revisiting the scene ([-])

Du Jiuyan took the paper from Wang Lei's hand, "Have you seen the murder weapon?"

Wang Ling was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "For the trial in heaven, Mr. Jiao gave it to me for identification. I haven't seen it before, so I said I don't know."

"If you see Miao Peng again, will you still know him? Can you describe his characteristics?"

Wang Ling shook his head, "I can recognize it, but you tell me, I can't tell. He's just an ordinary person, nothing special."

"That's all for today. In the next few days, I will look at the file. If Mr. Fu allows me, I will investigate and collect evidence myself. If there is any problem, I will come to you. If not, just stay and wait." Inform you to reopen the class."

"Mr. Du, Master Jiu, will I win? I didn't kill anyone, so I will definitely win, right?" Wang Lei said.

Du Jiuyan looked back at him, and replied: "It depends on whether what you said is true."

"Ah! That's good, that's good. Jiuye, as long as I can go out, I'll make peace with Osmanthus immediately. She can do whatever she wants at home, and I'll ignore her from now on, and never have any contact with her."

"I, Wang Lei, keep my word!"

Du Jiuyan glanced at it, opened the door and went out.

"How is it?" The cripple was waiting for her outside, "I listened to it outside, and it seemed somewhat true."

Du Jiuyan nodded, "It's really useless. There are no witnesses or evidence, and the timeline is very vague. This case is not easy to prove."

"Want to go to Mr. Fu to read the files?" the lame man asked.

Du Jiuyan nodded, and said as he walked: "I have doubts about the evidence and testimony of the witnesses in the whole case. Also, the evidence is not sufficient, so I will ask Mr. Fu to give me a ticket, and I will investigate it myself .”

"There should be no problem." The lame man said, "I'll go with you when you get the card ticket."

Du Jiuyan and the cripple smiled, and said, "I'm really flattered to be accompanied by the lame master."

"Master Jiu is being polite." The lame man said.

Du Jiuyan smiled lightly, went to the front yard to find Fu Tao, told Fu Tao what she had heard, and what she planned to do later, "...My lord, so I ask you to give me a card ticket, I want to go there myself Crime scene."

Fu Tao hesitated for a moment, nodded his head and said: "As the accused litigator, you have the right to ask for this, and I have granted it." As he spoke, he called Huang Shuli over and explained: "She is going to the scene of the crime. You go with her yourself."

Huang Shuji responded with a smile, cupped his hands at Du Jiuyan and said, "When does Mr. Du want to go?"

"Now." Du Jiuyan said: "Your Excellency is also very busy. I heard that the new county magistrate is coming soon. I hope this case can come to a conclusion soon."

Huang Scribe smiled and said: "Mr. Du is very moved by the consideration of the adults. After the villains clean up and prepare, we will leave after a cup of tea."

"Thank you." Du Jiuyan thanked.

Fu Tao said: "You have read all the dossiers, what do you think is the biggest problem?"

"My lord, after a cursory look at this file, I think there is no flaw. Wang Lei went into the yard, went to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife, killed Miao Peng, and stole seventeen items of property. When he left, he was caught by Miao's family. A house slave bumped into it, and Wang Lei ran away."

"There are [-] pieces of property evidence, and there are witnesses of domestic slaves. In addition, Wang Lai admitted to overturning the wall, and there are indeed traces of overturning the wall."

"All of this is logical, and it must be Wang Lei. But because it is so logical, there is no accident, I find it strange. After all, Wang Lei is not a conspiracy, he and the deceased have never even met before."

"Meeting your mother-in-law is considered an accident." Fu Tao said.

Du Jiuyan nodded, "It is indeed, so I want to go and see for myself."

"Well. I will close the case the day after tomorrow morning, and it will be over in half an hour. You can wait in the back." Fu Tao said.

Du Jiuyan should be, and went to Miao's mansion with Huang Shuli and the lame man.

Everyone in Miao's family went to the funeral, and there was only one woman who guarded the door. The cripple showed his yamen ticket and entered Miao's mansion smoothly.

The mother-in-law did not follow, but continued to sit at the door and take a nap.

"The corner of the northeast wall, that's this side." The cripple has checked this yard twice, and the three of them walked for a while, and arrived at the corner of the courtyard wall. Once there was a fight, the Hu family sealed off the alley, and the half of the dead alley outside was called Miao's alley."

"Here." The lame man and Du Jiuyan said: "There are traces of footsteps, it should be jumped from here."

Du Jiuyan saw that there were indeed traces of hearts on the fence, and there were also a few stones piled underneath.

The three of them followed the route drawn by Du Jiuyan and walked inside. Du Jiuyan said, "He said that there is a row of houses on the right, which is in a mess. It should be the upside-down seat."

For slightly larger mansions, there will be inverted seats in the backyard.There are many rooms in the inverted seat, usually for servants to live in.

There are very few people serving in Miao's house, presumably several women have their own separate yards, so this inverted seat is also vacant.

The three of them went straight forward, found the children's room that Wang Lei had mentioned, and entered two vacant courtyards, but they did not find the bedroom where Wang Lei relieved himself, which had many books.

This made Du Jiuyan very strange.

"According to his description, it should be around here." Du Jiuyan looked at the drawings she drew, "But the yard after passing through the garden is empty, and there is no study room even in the main courtyard. Where did the collection of books come from?" .”

Miao's family is a businessman's family, and the whole family has only one study, which is in the outer courtyard.

"Did he go to the outer courtyard?" Huang Shuli also felt strange when he heard it, staring at Du Jiuyan's drawing and said: "If he went to the outer courtyard, the place where he jumped out of the fence couldn't be Mianma Hutong."

The outer courtyard faces south, and Wang Lei himself said that the place he left after he left is the Cotton Alley in the west.

On this point, Wang Lei can't make a mistake, let alone lie.After all, going to the outer court is more beneficial to him than the inner court.

"Since your lord agrees, then bring Wang Lei here." The cripple pointed to the main courtyard, "Go and see the room of the deceased."

Du Jiuyan went.

The deceased's name was Miao Peng, 30 years old, four years older than Miao Ying, and they were brothers of the same mother.

Miao Peng is married and has two sons and a daughter.The eldest son studies in Baoqing, while the second son and youngest daughter live here with their mother Cui all the year round.Miao Peng didn't go home often, and had a concubine bought in Baoqing, but she didn't have any children.

Miao Ying is 26 years old this year, and his wife's surname is Liu, from Xinhua.The couple had only one daughter.

Miao Ying has always lived in Shaoyang, and he takes care of the shops rented out by Miao's family and the farm outside the city.

This is written in Fu Tao's dossier.Du Jiuyan waited for Huang Shuli to open the lock, opened the door and entered the bedroom. Even though it had been several days, when the door was opened, a faint smell of blood still rushed out.

The sheets and quilts are still laid out in the same way, and everything in the room is intact.

"At that time, the deceased was lying here. From head to legs, there were twelve knives in total, and one knife on the neck was fatal!" The lame man roughly drew the location and marked the location of the knife.

"There were no traces of fighting at the scene?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Neck shook his head, "I didn't find it. The deceased was drunk and asleep at the time. He was killed with a knife, and he didn't have time to resist."

"Yeah." Du Jiuyan looked at the blood on the floor and bedding, and looked around the room. According to the file, Miao Peng's young daughter had a fever that night, and his wife, Liu Cui, stayed with her in the courtyard behind. , Later, I didn't come back to rest when I was late.

Du Jiuyan went out from the door and rushed out of the courtyard, Huang Shuli followed behind and said, "It's at your position, when Wang Lei was going out, the old lady ran into him with a lantern, and the old lady yelled, Wang Lei was quick on his legs and ran away."

Du Jiuyan came back with his hands behind his back, Huang Shuli asked, "Mr. Du, did you find anything?"

I have checked back and forth, and Du Jiuyan's questions are also included in the file, and those I didn't ask are actually included in the file.Huang Shuli was more curious about Du Jiuyan's discovery.

"Did any family members tell me where the bracelet was kept?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Huang Shuji shook his head, "No one knows about this, but it should be put together with the jewelry."

Du Jiuyan walked to the dressing table, the dowry box was turned over, and a few worthless hairpins and accessories fell around.

According to the dossier, a total of [-] pieces of property were lost.Among them, the bracelets were found in a gambling shop, and the remaining sixteen items were found in the cracks between the walls of the inn where Wang Lei lived the next day.

Suddenly, someone shouted at the door: "Why are you here again? Isn't the case closed? Why are you here?"

It was Miao Ying's voice. When Du Jiuyan turned around, he saw Miao Ying standing angrily at the door.

"Ticket." The cripple showed the ticket that was searched by the yamen expressionlessly, "We are following orders, please cooperate."

Miao Ying pointed at Du Jiuyan, "You, you really accepted Wang Lei's defense. Why are you like this? Do you still have the public morality and sense of shame of a litigator?"

"So excited." Du Jiuyan folded his arms and looked at Miao Ying, "It is Wang Lei's right to invite a lawyer, and it is my freedom to accept the lawsuit. Miao Erye's logic is unbelievable. Could it be that losing his brother is too sad, So emotionally out of control, close to dementia?"

"Of course," Miao Ying finished, feeling that the words were wrong.He is not demented and everything is normal, "I'm not talking nonsense with you, if you want to check, check it quickly. No matter what you check, I'm done with Wang Lei."

Du Jiuyan didn't look at him, but said to Huang Shuli, "Let's go see Mrs. Cui."
