Chapter 69
In this way, the four masters and servants of the Xie family naturally ruled out the suspicion. Next, it will be Zhou Tingshen's turn to interrogate the person who reported the crime.

Zhou Tingshen calmly sat back on his seat, patted the gavel and asked, "Wang Xiaoer, I want to ask you, how did you find out about the murder in the Zhang family?"

Wang Xiaoer, who was kneeling under the courtroom, immediately said: "Yes... I heard screams in the courtyard of the Zhang family. The yamen has come to report the crime. My lord, I really heard it."

At this time, an official in uniform came in from the outside, and the official reported to Zhou Tingshen: "My lord, my subordinates have already checked the situation of this Wang Xiaoer. He is a jobless vagrant who often goes to gambling houses, restaurants, and other places." In the place of fireworks, I also checked the previous file records, and this Wang Xiaoer has done a lot of stealing and entrapment of good women on weekdays."

Wang Xiaoer, who was kneeling at the bottom, quickly lowered his head, feeling a little nervous.

Zhou Tingshen said: "Wang Xiaoer, since you said you could hear the screams of the Zhang family, why did no one hear the Zhang family's neighbors? Also, in the middle of the night, you didn't stay at your own home, and ran to the Zhang family's house. What are you doing outside? You come to the yamen to report the case, and it takes half an hour for the officer to take people to the Zhang family. When the officer arrives at the Zhang family, the Zhang family died in less than an hour. Fragrance time." Suddenly, he slapped the gavel hard, and his voice was a bit harsh, "Who did you instigate, and let's take them one by one."

Wang Xiaoer was originally a gangster in the capital, and he didn't have any skills to support himself. After his parents died, he sold his family property, and he only lived by stealing, cheating and abducting all day long.Today, he lost all his money at the gambling house, and when he was walking on the road in the dark, a masked man with a sword in his arms suddenly stopped him, saying that as long as he did what he wanted, he would get 50 taels of silver .

50 taels... That was money he had never seen in his life.

Later, the masked swordsman threw ten taels of silver to him first, and he ran to the Yamen without saying a word, just holding the silver.

If he had known that this matter would be exposed, Wang Xiaoer would not have accepted this business. In his heart, this humble life is worth a fortune.Therefore, he kowtowed and cried, and told all the things he encountered on the road.
