Great Lawyer

Chapter 755 New Speculation ([-])

Zhou Yuan is a concubine, and when Elder Zhou said he wanted to separate the family, he told him to move out.

So, he bought a small yard two alleys away, and he planned to move here with his aunt, wife and children when the family was officially separated.

At this moment, there is a couple in the courtyard. The man is in his thirties, Zhou Yuan's brother-in-law Luo Miao, and the woman is Grandma Luo.

The two stood outside the door, suppressing their voices and not knowing what they were talking about, with serious expressions on their faces.

"Captain Yao." Luo Miao came up to meet him, and said sadly, "The murderer, have you found the murderer?"

Yao Ye replied: "We are still investigating, but we can definitely find out, after all, Prince Gui and Mr. Du are here."

Luo Miao and his wife were taken aback. They looked at King Gui and Du Jiuyan in disbelief, and stammered, "Wang, Wang Yehe, and Mr. Du?"

Du Jiuyan looked at the two of them, nodded, and said, "Is Zhou Yuan awake?"

"Not yet. The doctor said... that although he can't die, it depends on the chance to wake up." Luo Miao said, "Would you like to go and see?"

When Du Jiuyan entered the room, Luo Miao was lying pale, wrapped in gauze.He was stabbed four times in the body, one on the right elbow, one on the shoulder, and one wound on the side of the waist, but none of them were fatal.

"It should be a coma caused by excessive blood loss." Du Jiuyan and Gui Wang said, "Only the knife on the stomach can be fatal, and the others are skin trauma."

King Gui nodded and said nothing.

The two went to Aunt Sun's room next door. Aunt Sun was lying on the bed, looking at them angrily, and said: "Gentlemen, our master and wife are good people, I beg you gentlemen, we must find the murderer. Avenge them."

"Tell me about all the sounds you heard and what you saw." Du Jiuyan said.

Aunt Sun replied: "At that time, I heard movement outside, but it was vague and not very clear. I thought it was Zhou Yuan and the uncle brother who got drunk in the middle of the night and ran into a quarrel in the yard again."

"However, suddenly the mother-in-law in my yard cried out, and there was no sound, so I felt something was wrong."

Du Jiuyan asked, "When did you first hear the noise?"

"The clapper of the third watch has been knocked, and it is estimated that after a quarter of an hour, I heard the noise coming from the yard."

"Then how long was the interval between the first time I heard the sound and the mother-in-law crying in your yard?"

"This is very fast. As soon as I heard the sound, I thought it might be that the two masters were drunk and arguing, so I called the woman in my yard, and the woman answered me immediately, but she hasn't arrived in my room yet. Those people It has already come in, and the mother-in-law died in the yard."

Du Jiuyan nodded slightly.What King Gui said was correct, on the night of March [-], there were definitely more than twelve people who entered Zhou's compound.

The number of people is far more than twelve people, as King Gui said, there are at least 17 people.

Otherwise, with a small number of people, it would take a cup of tea to fight all the way to this humble courtyard.

"Yao Butou said, your door was pushed open, someone entered your room and stared at you for a while, can you see the other person's face?"

Aunt Sun shook her head, "There was no light in my room, and he was standing at the door with his back to the light. He could see me but I couldn't see his face clearly. It was a man, tall and broad-shouldered, carrying a long knife."

Du Jiuyan and King Gui left the house and returned to the Zhou family compound.

I saw a man crying on the coffin.

The man was covered in wind, frost and dust, his face was exhausted and haggard, and even his lips were chapped and bleeding.

"This is Feng Zhaoping," Yao Ye said, "he is also from Luxi. He went out to do business after the Chinese New Year and has not been in Luxi."

Du Jiuyan looked at Feng Zhaoping, who was 27 years old, tall and thin, with a high nose bridge and handsome appearance, especially a pair of smoky eyes, with a hazy and melancholic temperament.

Du Jiuyan felt that this kind of man should be very attractive to women.

"Feng Zhaoping, you just arrived in Luxi, have you ever returned home?" Yao Ye asked.

Feng Zhaoping helped Zhou Fengshi's coffin to stand up, cupped his hands sadly and said: "The villain received the news on the morning of the 22nd. He came back from Xiangyang on horseback. He just arrived in Luxi, and he hasn't returned home yet."

"Yao Butou, I beg you to help my father-in-law's family and my wife get justice and find the murderer."

"These people...these people are too inhuman."

Fang An stepped forward to support him, also crying and said: "My lord, please accept your condolences. With the prince and Mr. Du here, we will definitely find the murderer."

Feng Zhaoping was taken aback, and looked at King Gui and Du Jiuyan. He had seen them just now, but he didn't expect that the people on the opposite side were King Gui and Du Jiuyan. He immediately knelt down excitedly, kowtowed and said: "The villain kowtowed to the prince and Du Jiuyan. Princess, I beg the prince and princess to make decisions for us!"

King Gui didn't speak, Du Jiuyan said: "Get up and talk, since we have taken over, we must investigate the case thoroughly before leaving."

"Thank you, thank you, my lord and princess."

"Mr. Du," Pei Ying shouted over there, "Look here."

Du Jiuyan and King Gui went there.

Feng Zhou's body was removed and placed on the door panel. Pei Ying held her hand and said to Du Jiu, "Look at her fingers."

"Skin flakes?" Du Jiuyan observed carefully, Feng Zhou's ten fingers were long and slender, and her nails were clean and round, but at this moment, the nails of her middle finger and ring finger on her right hand were broken, and there were bloodstains and some skin flakes in the nails.

"It should be left after fighting with someone before he was alive, scratching the other party." Pei Ying said.

Du Jiuyan raised his eyebrows, turned to Yao Ye, and said, "Tell me about Feng Zhou's condition when you found her."

"She was stabbed in the back. She protected her son and lay face down among the flowers."

This is very strange.Logically, it should be that after hearing the sound, Feng Zhou escaped from the room with her son, went straight to the backyard, fled to the side of the flowers, and was stabbed from the back by the murderer. Before she died, she saw her son guarding her. body.

However, looking at the situation, Feng Zhou seems to have fought with the other party before he died, and scratched the other party with his nails.

Another strange thing is that Feng Zhou obviously couldn't protect her son, why the other party didn't kill her, just like Aunt Sun, the other party seemed to be moved with compassion and spared their lives.

"Feng Zhaoping," Du Jiuyan asked, "Is your son... smart?"

Feng Zhaoping was stunned for a moment, his face was a little embarrassed, he thought for a while and said: "No, it's not that smart. But it's not enough to understand everything."

That is low intelligence.

An old man who was paralyzed in bed, and a child with mental retardation, the other party obviously knew about this situation, so they didn't kill them.

Du Jiuyan was thoughtful.

Zhou Xiao checked the rooms one by one, spread his hands helplessly, and said, "The other party is very cautious, except for killing people and moving things, they didn't leave anything behind."

"Go and find the nails." Du Jiuyan was very curious about where Zhou Fengshi's nails fell off, whether it was in her yard, or in the garden before she was killed.

Everyone went with her to find Zhou Fengshi's two broken nails.

In the past three days, many people came and went. They searched along the route Feng Zhou ran seven or eight times, but they found nothing.

"Go back first." Du Jiuyan said, "Let's sit down and discuss."

Yao Ye asked Feng Zhaoping to listen to the rumor at any time, not to go far away, Fang An asked: "Then... when can I be buried?"

"Find a way to move the people to the ancestral hall in the north. If the weather is not hot, they can be stored for another five or six days." Du Jiuyan said.

Fang An should be, let people do it.

Everyone went back to the inn together, and as soon as they sat down, Shao Wenliang sent a policeman to report to Du Jiuyan what happened in the prison, "...the three of Sheng Tao interrogated for half a day, and they didn't know what they said, they were ordinary Guests pass by here."

"Mr. Du, my lord is asking if you can use torture."

Du Jiuyan said: "Go back and tell your lords, don't worry, the prince and I will go there in the afternoon."

The little catcher should have gone.

Qian Daoan and the others got up after resting for a long time, and sat together in the yard, forming a circle, while Yao Ye looked at him speechlessly, envious.

It is really a great joy in life to have such a group of like-minded people, travel together to investigate cases and do what you like.

"I'll summarize the facts of the case." Du Jiuyan said, "Master Zhou Zhen and the master and servant of the Zhou family had a total of 26 lives. They were killed on the night of the [-]th."

"There are three survivors in total. One is Zhou Yuan, who came back from the backyard and was bleeding from several knives and was unconscious. .”

Du Jiuyan roughly summed it up, and then said: "After our investigation in the morning, there is one point that is different from the previous conclusion of Yao's arrest. They used the witness Zhou Zhong to confirm that there were twelve criminals in total, nine men and three women. In the morning, by identifying the depth and strength of the stab wounds of the deceased, it was determined that there were at least seventeen criminals."

"Then Zhou Zhong told a lie?" Qian Daoan asked.

Du Jiuyan shook his head and said, "It's not like that. That's why we suspect that they walked in two directions. Twelve people came out from the east gate of Zhou's compound, and two carriages left the city from the west gate. The other five people came out in two carriages. The carriage comes out from the west gate to the east gate and leaves the city."

"So, it can explain why there are two boxes of treasures in this inn." Dou Rongxing said.

Du Jiuyan nodded and said: "This is just a guess, whether it is true or not, we need to verify it."

"Now there are a few doubts. One, is Zhou Yuan going to the backyard at that time, whether he had a tryst with that girl named Tweety, if so, don't worry about it, if not, why did he go to the backyard?"

"Second point, why didn't the criminals kill the paralyzed Aunt Sun and grandson?"

"The third point is why there are skin flakes and blood stains in Feng Zhou's nails."

Everyone understood, and they all showed thoughtful expressions.

King Gui asked Yao Ye, "Nearby, are there any groups with such a large number of people who can fight, such as bandits or... military officers or bodyguards?"

"These people are proficient in using weapons, not beginners."

There is no hesitation or fear in killing people.

"There are no bandits or thieves nearby, not only in Luxi, but in Huguang as well." He glanced at Du Jiuyan and coughed, "It's because two years ago, Shaoyang caught a gambling house. Then Boss Yu and his subordinates were wiped out by the court and people on the road, and they have been completely purged in the past two years."

Those new officials can no longer use the slogan of suppressing bandits to make political achievements when they take office.

Afterwards, they all found out that it was jointly organized by Du Jiuyan and Jiao San.

Du Jiuyan not only benefited Shaoyang, but the whole Huguang became better because of her.

"There is no martial arts gym in Luxi, but there is one in Yuanling, not far from Luxi. That martial arts gym is very big, and naturally there are many people who can fist and kick in it." Yao Ye said, "As for the bodyguard bureau, there are three in Luxi, One family is relatively small, with only seven or eight people walking darts, and the other two are very large, probably dozens of people."

Du Jiuyan said: "What the prince said is very reasonable. Now you should focus on investigating groups like this."

"The villain will go to Yuanling in person tomorrow morning," Yao Ye said.

"Boss," as he was talking, a small policeman came in and replied to Yao Ye, "I went to the east gate to check."
