Chapter 183 Return Your Innocence
Speaking of physique, He Minglan suddenly laughed.

"Don't tell me, I used to think that Mr. He looked gentle and gentle, just a cowardly look. But that night, his friend was drunk and crazy, and he didn't want to go home. He actually gave him a hand. The shoulders lifted him out, and I told my buddy that Mr. He's physique is really unrecognizable."

It was already afternoon when we came out of the tavern.

Feeling sorry, Qing Huan and the others ate lunch in the tavern.

The meals in the tavern are prepared for those who do hard work. The portion is large and the meal is economical. As for the taste, it is naturally not comparable to what Qing Huan and the others eat on weekdays.

Lian Chao didn't speak, just ate quietly, but Qing Huan praised him for a while, boasting that the food was good, and even took a photo of the food, promising to send the photo after developing it later.

He Minglan was originally a straightforward woman, but now seeing that they were sincere, she felt that they were good people, so she said a few more words about He Huaiyuan.

"Why do you think Mr. He is suspicious?"

Qing Huan blinked, and took out a photo of Lu Qingsi from his pocket and handed it to He Minglan. He Minglan couldn't help saying, "My God, is this boy 20 years old? How could such a beautiful kid kill someone?" ?”

Qing Huan said, "We have no evidence to prove that Lu Qingsi didn't kill anyone, but I think human life is at stake. It's better to do more investigations, so that good people are not wronged, and bad people are not allowed to be free. We are not saying that He Huaiyuan just killed people." Criminal, now we are just excluding him, he is the first reporter, so we will start with him."

After leaving the tavern, Qing Huan did not leave immediately, but walked around the tavern.

As He Minglan said, when you leave the tavern, turn left and you will find a small alley, and at the end of the alley is the toilet.

Qing Huan went in and walked around, and it took a long time before she came out.Lian Chao said, "What do you see?"

Qing Huan shook her head, "I just want to see how long it will take if He Huaiyuan comes out to go to the toilet."

From this close, even if you vomit, 5 minutes is enough.

But according to He Minglan, it took He Huaiyuan almost ten minutes.

This is very strange.

"According to what He Minglan said, He Huaiyuan was not drunk, so he shouldn't have taken so long."

After all, she walked again, the tavern was not far from the alley where the crime happened, Qing Huan tried to start from the tavern as fast as she could, and went straight to Qidaokou Hutong. It took a total of 15 minutes to come and go.

Qing Huan stopped at the entrance of the tavern out of breath, pinched his watch, and said, "Your calculation is wrong. According to He Minglan, He Huaiyuan has great strength, so he has a good physique, and he is a man. If he If he wants to save time, he should be able to shorten the time to 10 minutes."

Qing Huan had enough panting, straightened her waist, "But what is he going to do to shorten the time?"

As Qing Huan said, she subconsciously looked towards the alley. About two or three meters into the alley, a large frame was placed upside down, obtrusive for no reason.

The whole alley is just that one big basket.

For some reason, Qing Huan stared at the basket for a long time, walked over and picked up the big basket, a ray of light flashed in the half-loose soil, Qing Huan bent down to push the soil away, and a silver hairpin with a peach heart appear in sight.

Qing Huan was stunned, holding a hairpin in his hand, just as the tavern clerk came out to go to the toilet, saw the big basket under Qing Huan's feet, and shouted, "Who is this, just put it around! The road is narrow in the first place."

While talking, the man picked up the basket and was about to throw it away, but Qing Huan stopped him.

"Isn't this basket placed here?"

The man laughed and said, "Girl was joking, look at this road, it's only wide for one person, who would put this thing here."

This matter is a bit interesting.

Early the next morning, Fu Xiaotang came.

"Miss guessed right, that hairpin is indeed Sun Miaoying's."

He approached Sun's family and asked, brother Sun Miaoying bought it for her.

Qing Huan remained silent, and many things flashed through her mind, as if a thread was gradually threading all the small things together.

Lu Qingsi was arrested and reported by He Huaiyuan;

He Huaiyuan was accidentally drunk, and Sun Miaoying's hairpin appeared where he was drunk.

That means Qidaokou Hutong is not the scene of the first crime, she has been here before, or in other words, she was brought here before Qidaokou Hutong.

So when did she die?
According to Wu Zuo's deduction, she died after eight o'clock in the evening, and Lu Qingsi was arrested at nine o'clock in the evening. There must be a mistake in this.

"I'm almost certain that He Huaiyuan is the murderer."

Qing Huan looked at Fu Xiaotang and said, "But what I don't understand is that the time of Sun Miaoying's death is wrong, how did He Huaiyuan manage to change the time of Sun Miaoying's death? So I want you to gather all available people to thoroughly Find out about He Huaiyuan. Most importantly, if you can go into He Huaiyuan's house and search his personal clothing, I wonder if you will find anything."

Fu Xiaotang pondered for a while, said "I will do my best", and then left.

After doing all this, Qing Huan didn't have much to do.

All that is left now is to find a way to meet Lu Qingsi.

Nowadays, in the Republic of China, the lawyer trial system has just entered the Republic of China. Although everything is still immature, the criminal law has stipulated that death row prisoners also have the right to hire lawyers.

Qing Huan is not a lawyer, but she can be Lu Qingsi's defender.

Thinking of this, she drafted a document and brought a lawyer to the criminal investigation team to meet Lu Qingsi.

She waited outside, after a while, the lawyer came out and brought a power of attorney from Lu Qingsi, authorizing her to be his defender.

Now, accompanied by a lawyer, she can see Lu Qingsi.

They went to meet the formalities, and happened to meet the policeman who was in charge of Lu Qingsi's case.

The policeman's surname was Wei, and his single name was Cheng. He took the case and conducted the interrogation. He clearly knew what relationship Lu Qingsi had with her, but he refused to let go of such a trivial matter as a meeting.

Fortunately, Lu Qingsi never recruited.

Seeing Qing Huan, Wei Cheng was startled. It happened that the prison guards had gone through the procedures and were about to let them in.Wei Cheng hurriedly stopped him, cast a glance at Qing Huan, and said calmly, "Miss Fu is here again? Didn't I say you can't see Lu Qingsi?"

Qing Huan didn't speak, her accompanying lawyer explained the matter again, Wei Cheng's eyes sharpened, and he sneered, "I naturally know that Miss Fu came from a wealthy family, but what if you met Lu Qingsi? He killed someone The evidence of the crime is solid, does Ms. Fu still want to use her power to reverse the case for him?
Qing Huan looked at him for a while, then suddenly laughed.

She can now be sure that this police officer named Wei Cheng is hostile to her.

Qing Huan wasn't going to talk to him, she turned her head and asked the lawyer softly, "Can we go in?" After getting an affirmative answer, she walked past Wei Cheng and walked into the prison. Wei Cheng tried to stop him, but the lawyer blocked the way.

"As a public official, Mr. Wei offends civil rights, so what?"

After finishing speaking, the lawyer gave him a cold look and walked away.Wei Cheng's expression changed, he turned around and walked out.

After struggling for so many days, Qing Huan finally met Lu Qingsi.

He was severely beaten, and there were large areas of redness and swelling on his face. Compared with his white skin, it was shocking.

Qing Huan firmly remembered Wei Cheng in her heart, and asked, "Qing Si, time is limited, you have to tell me clearly, how come you have Sun Miaoying's blood on your body?"

Lu Qingsi said, "I don't know about this either. I thought about it. On the way home, I passed Qidaokou Hutong and seemed to have tripped over something and fell. It was too dark and I didn't see it clearly. , and went on my way. Besides that, I can't think of anything else."

Qing Huan was taken aback, and tripped, it should be a corpse.

"What were you doing out that night?"

Lu Qingsi thought for a while, and said, "I came out of someone else's house that night, and I saw Yuan Xiang by chance. She was dressed in plain clothes and was completely unobtrusive. I was curious, so I wanted to follow her to see what she was doing. What. As a result, she was cautious all the way, and took a big turn to go to our house."

Qing Huan was taken aback, "Is she going home? I didn't see her."

Lu Qingsi shook his head, "She didn't go in, she just watched outside, and she didn't leave until you came back."

Yuan Xiang... Could it be that he is spying on her?

Lu Qingsi said with a bitter face, "After you came back, she went back the same way, I followed her until she lived, and then came back. On the way back, I fell first, but just arrived at the door, I was arrested by the police. They, they beat me all night and asked me to confess, but I didn't do anything, how can I recruit!!"

While talking, Lu Qingsi's eyes turned red with grievance.

Qing Huan was very distressed, and touched his face, "They beat you, how did you endure it?"

Lu Qingsi sobbed and said, "My mother told me before she was alive that a good boy can't lie."

Qing Huan felt tightness in her chest, and after a long time, she said firmly, "Don't worry, no one will beat you again. I will prove your innocence and take you out earlier."

After leaving the prison, Qing Huan felt heavy for no reason.

The lawyer said, "I have an idea. This kid is so good-looking. He followed that girl to and fro. Someone must have seen him or noticed him on the way. We just need to prove that Lu Qingsi was killed when the victim died. If he was not at the scene of the crime at the time, half of the lawsuit will be won."

Speaking of the time of the murder, Qing Huan shook her head, "I didn't tell you, I suspect that Sun Miaoying's death was deliberately changed."

The lawyer was surprised, and Qing Huan hurriedly told him about the hairpin. Upon hearing this, the lawyer hurriedly asked, "Where is that basket still?"

Qing Huan shook her head, "Probably not here."

Without further ado, the lawyer hurriedly brought Qing Huan back to the tavern, and the basket was indeed gone.

The lawyer squatted down, searched for the place where the basket was placed, and said excitedly, "I think there is a door to this case! The soil under the basket seems to be completely untouched. If someone checks it, maybe Sun Miaoying's blood reaction will be detected."

Qing Huan was overjoyed, but said immediately, "Can Huating have this technology?"

The lawyer said, "If Huating doesn't exist, there should be one in Chengzhou. Even if Chengzhou doesn't have one, there will definitely be one in Beiping!"
