However, even in the face of such a threat, there was a group of people who had clearly seen today's situation and the great changes that were about to happen in Anxi Prefecture and did not choose to leave.
As a result, only half of the people were left in front of the Yamen.
Zhao Yanzhen didn't say much after that. He just asked others to continue to cooperate with Xie Liu in the trial. Although Xie Liu was just a clerk, he was very good at trial.
Without spending much time, Xie Liu defeated the Anxi County Magistrate and Li Guanhua.
Later, the Lulin Village case was tried. Because of the hostages Zhao Yanzhen had captured long ago and the confessions of these people, the Lulin Village case later involved Magistrate Ke.
Therefore, although the case had been roughly investigated, because of the extensive involvement, Zhao Yanzhen only asked Xie Liuxian not to try the case for the time being, and then they only reopened the case of the bombing of Xianghua Building.
After the few prisoners who were still alive were brought to the court, the appearance of these people was obviously beyond everyone's expectations.
At this time, these people seemed to be just honest craftsmen, and their limbs were more or less defective. Who could compare these people with the gangsters who burned the entire commercial street? got engaged.
After this group of people were arrested, their attitude became much more magnanimous compared to the sophistry of others. After reporting their names, this group of people took the initiative and said, "Your Excellency, Xianghua Building and the surrounding commercial streets. It was all blown up by us, and if you want to kill the important people, we will not complain at all, but it is a pity that the man named Ke was not killed, otherwise we brothers would have been more happy!"
It was the first time I heard a criminal suspect admit his crime so readily.
Moreover, no one listening below scolded them. Zhao Yanzhen couldn't help but subconsciously asked, "It seems that you have some bad conflicts with Magistrate Na Ke?"
When the man heard that Zhao Yanzhen suddenly mentioned Magistrate Ke, he immediately said, "That person named Ke is not a human being!"
"We are all nearby craftsmen, or relatives of craftsmen. The Xianghua Building and even the entire street of Xianghua Building were built by ourselves and our relatives. However, when the building was completed, this There was something wrong on the floor. In that big explosion, almost all of us were injured or directly killed by the explosion, and all this was only because someone above had increased the amount of explosives when designing it. There were too many, and one explosive package failed to explode at the time, so so many of us were injured or killed."
"Afterwards, we also wanted to seek justice for our loved ones or some medical expenses for ourselves. After all, we also had to live. After being bombed like this, we couldn't do a lot of work, and we couldn't even go to the ground, but we couldn't do it again and again. We went to the government to make the decision, but we were expelled again and again. Even later, when we were kicked out by the government, the owner of Xianghua Tower came to beat us with thugs."
"Due to the embarrassment between Anxi Prefecture and the owner of Xianghua Tower, at least half of us who sought justice at the beginning died because of our injuries, because they were beaten to death, and because they were subdued and left. There were only about a dozen of us out of the hundred or so people at that time. We knew that we might have no way to complain this time."
"So after we learned that an imperial envoy was coming, and they were planning to take the imperial envoy to Xianghua Tower, we came up with the idea that since we had no way to lodge a complaint, and since there were officials everywhere to protect us, we would not lodge a complaint. , we will use our methods to let all of them get the revenge they deserve."
At the mention of this, everyone present was frightened. No one knew that the dangerous incident they had today was just because of the suppression of this group of people by Magistrate Ke, which led to such a result.
However, this is the fact. Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. If you don’t leave a way for others to survive, others will fight for it.
"Since you won't give us justice, we will seek justice ourselves. I can only regret that the boss of Xianghua Tower and Mr. Ke were not killed by the explosion or burned to death by the fire!"
Amid people's angry condemnations, Xie Liu only said, "You caused explosions and injured innocent people. Participants must be sentenced to death. This is a major challenge to public security."
"However, because you also have past grudges, I allow the original Xianghua Building explosion case to be re-examined. We will investigate the injured and dead persons due to the Xianghua Building accident.
Make a unified declaration, and after verification, regardless of whether you participated in the current explosion, you or your family members will receive the compensation you deserve. "
"As for the person who caused the accident and the owner of Xianghua Building, we will arrest them all."
After hearing Xie Liu's words, the people who were already resenting everything became a little unbelievable.
After all, their case has been dragged on for so long. Under the repeated cynicism and severe blows, they almost no longer dare to think that they will get truly fair treatment.
But those who stayed knew very well that they had no way out, so they preferred to continue on the road of jail time and beatings.
Even if the road ahead is dark.
However, no one expected that when everyone gave up hope and saw no glimmer of light, someone would open a hole for them.
Then the light flooded in again, and they realized that they were also under the sun.
After hearing Xie Liu's words, someone asked in disbelief, "Is everything you said true? Are you lying to us?"
Hearing this, Xie Liu only said, "This matter was started by His Highness King Jin. His Highness is the imperial envoy who came to investigate the case this time. Since he has arranged this matter and handed it over to me, your matter will definitely be handled." "
"We may have some moths in our Anxi Prefecture, but the entire Dayong is not protected by officials. If not, the imperial envoy would not come to investigate this matter!"
After hearing what Xie Liu said, everyone naturally stopped talking. They only expressed their obedience to the verdict.
At the moment, these cases seem to be just ordinary disputes, but behind these disputes, there is almost everywhere the shadow of Magistrate Ke.
Therefore, Xie Liu's next step was to ask Zhao Yanzhen for instructions, and then directly sent people to find Magistrate Ke for questioning. Those who had been involved with Magistrate Ke were naturally in danger at this time.
On the other side, outside Maple Leaf Ferry in Anxi, when Zhifu Ke, who was unconscious due to a rapid fall, opened his eyes again, he seemed to be lying in a cabin, because the cabin was completely dark.
Therefore, Magistrate Ke almost thought that he was dead, so he was forced to fall into the eighteenth level of hell. However, there was silence here. At the same time, when he tried to get up, he suddenly discovered His body seemed to be fixed by something.
Therefore, as soon as Magistrate Ke got up, he found that he could not move at all.
The sound of gurgling water seemed to be heard in his ears, and he didn't know how long he had been waiting in confusion for how long. He finally heard a woman's voice outside, "It's finally here. Let's move him up quickly."
"Okay." The voice of the person who answered the woman's words was very vicissitudes of life.
Magistrate Ke looked over from the voice, and then discovered that the person who walked in was actually an old man with white hair and a white beard, wearing a ferocious mask on his face. The old man only glanced at Magistrate Ke expressionlessly, and then whispered He murmured, "Is your name Ke Shixing?"
Magistrate Ke didn't know the origins of these people, but he still nodded lightly, "Yes."
The old man with the ferocious mask then blew on Ke Shixing, and then Ke Shixing, who could not move at all, immediately felt as if he could move.
However, when he wanted to escape elsewhere, the old man just said quietly, "Come with me."
Then he was like a puppet controlled by someone, and could only follow the opponent step by step.
However, the man didn't hold any silk thread at all, and it was at this moment that he felt very scared.
"Where are you taking me!" Ke Shixing shouted loudly.
The old man looked at Ke Shixing and said, "Of course you go where you should go."
After the words fell, the old man stopped talking. However, Ke Shixing found where he was at this time, as if he was walking in a dark and turbid mist.
After the fog dissipated, he discovered that this place seemed to be a maze-like alley with no end in sight. There were many residents in the alley, but almost all of these residents were placed on high shelves.
Some people suffered from the torture of frying, and some
People were being whipped with whips, others were being burned with braziers, and some even had their meridians cut off and were being bled.
However, these tortured people all grew up to look like themselves.
As soon as he saw these tortures, he felt that he might have really arrived in the eighteenth level of hell. He felt that this place looked really terrible, and the old man who had just led him disappeared at some point. At the same time, I could only hear various painful sounds belonging to myself in the alley.
He felt scared and wanted to run away. However, no matter where he ran, he could not find an exit. Even when he was running away, he only heard the sound of a group of people running towards him and a cold, dark voice. "Hurry up and chase him, don't let him get away."...
Hearing this sound, Ke Shixing naturally turned around and looked behind him, only to see those men wearing ferocious masks behind him holding various instruments of torture and running after him.
Ke Shixing was naturally busy running away while screaming.
Seeing those people getting closer and closer to him, Ke Shixing immediately turned around and started to resist with dancing gestures, "Don't arrest me! I don't want to go to your place, I don't want to go to the 18th level of hell, and I don't want to die!"
However, as he was dancing, he then heard another voice saying only to him, "Wake up! Wake up!"
