After all, these slaves were raped by them. They were just afraid that when Xu Tianyi was arrested, these slaves would resist, so they raped those slaves. Their purpose was originally to Just let these slaves get some sleep.
When Xu Tianyi is sent to the government on the second day, everything will naturally come to light.
However, because of the fire, no one in this group could escape.
And Xu Tianyi was in the woodshed. He was tied up, so he was probably burned as soon as the fire broke out.
Thinking of this, everyone in the Zhou family was still a little panicked. After all, although they had no subjective intention to kill people, these people all died in the fire.
Any ordinary person would find it a bit overwhelming to think about it.
And just when they were panicking, after the fire was extinguished, the members of the fire brigade immediately started searching from the backyard that was burned to ashes.
Not surprisingly, the slaves in the yard were indeed burned by the fire. Many bodies were curled up in a ball. Although their skin has been burnt and blackened, and they are no longer human-like, their basic appearance is still there. People can still barely identify everything through some external things.
However, among them, there was a corpse that was burned and almost turned into charcoal. This corpse could not be identified at all, but because the corpse was carried out from the woodshed.
So at first everyone just thought that the corpse should be that of Xu Tianyi.
It was not until an old man made a preliminary judgment on the physical characteristics of the corpse that people discovered that the one who was burned to death was not Xu Tianyi as they said. It was clearly a female corpse.
For this reason, the old man just stood up and said to the old man of the Zhou family who identified him, "This is not the grandson-in-law you are talking about, this is a female body. You should still take a look at the female relatives in the family to see if there is anyone who has disappeared until now?" "
As soon as they heard this, everyone exploded. The population of the Zhou family is simple to say the least.
The old man of the Zhou family could realize who the missing person was without even counting.
It’s just that no one can believe it at the moment, and no one can understand it.
How could the Zhou family's sister-in-law appear in that woodshed?
If the sister-in-law of the Zhou family was burned to death, then where did Xu Tianyi go?
Therefore, for this reason, everyone in the Zhou family just looked at each other, but no one dared to stand up and identify him.
In the end, the eldest brother of the Zhou family stood up and said, "It's up to me to identify."
Seeing someone standing up, Wu Zuo also signaled to the eldest brother of the Zhou family to come out and identify him.
The corpse was now burned into a human shape. She was curled up and her whole body was charred. However, with just one glance, the eldest brother of the Zhou family still confirmed that the person in front of him was his wife.
The silver hairpin beside her was bought by him as a gift to her a few days ago.
Upon seeing this situation, the eldest brother of the Zhou family, a man who was 1.85 meters tall, actually cried in front of everyone.
He knelt in front of the corpse and hugged it, "It's my wife. Wife, wake up!"
However, how could a corpse speak? This loud cry seemed to open a hole in the dark night.
Everyone just looked at each other in shock at this moment. The second sister-in-law of the Zhou family obviously did not expect that the elder sister-in-law did not escape.
She was afraid that everyone would blame her, so she immediately said, "Father, mother, husband, this has nothing to do with me. You should have seen that the woodshed was already on fire. I couldn't get through it at all, and there was nothing I could do."
After hearing what the second sister-in-law of the Zhou family said, everyone knew that she was right. However, everyone was not in a good mood at the moment. Although the eldest sister-in-law of the Zhou family was selfish, she was not without merit. The family had been together for such a long time. , even animals should have feelings, let alone living people? So when faced with the words of the second sister-in-law of the Zhou family, the two elderly people of the Zhou family just kept expressionless.
The second son of the Zhou family glared at the second sister-in-law of the Zhou family and said, "Shut up and say less."
Being scolded by the second oldest child of the Zhou family, the second sister-in-law of the Zhou family felt even more aggrieved. She thought they wanted to blame her, so she immediately spoke up.
He said, "What I said is the truth. Who would have thought that she would go to the woodshed in the middle of the night? But she is really brave. Even her parents locked up the kid, but she ran over. I doubt it." Was she deceived by that boy's sweet words? Could that boy have killed his sister-in-law and then set her on fire?"
At this moment, no one had the intention to hold a dead person accountable. The old man of the Zhou family even hit his cane hard and warned the second sister-in-law of the Zhou family, "Shut up now."
However, it was too late to shut up the second sister-in-law of the Zhou family at this moment. Everyone present heard this, so the policeman only asked the second sister-in-law of the Zhou family, "What kid? Why did you imprison that kid in Chai Chai?" In the room?"
The second sister-in-law of the Zhou family finally realized that it was not the right time for her to say these words. She said nothing, but glanced at the old man of the Zhou family uneasily.
However, people were already asking her questions, and it was too late for her to shut up now. The old man of the Zhou family just gave him a cold look.
Then the old man took the initiative to stand up and said, "My lord, the boy we arrested was originally my granddaughter's husband, named Xu Tianyi. This son and my granddaughter were originally married at the fingertips. We reluctantly agreed to it at the beginning." In this marriage, my daughter even gave most of the family property to me as a dowry for my granddaughter. But who knew that it was the dowry that caused trouble? My grandson-in-law tried to do something to me just half a month after my granddaughter got married. My granddaughter sought wealth and killed herself. We didn't know it at the time, but it was the old servant who rescued my granddaughter. We called in the doctor, and then we found out that my poor granddaughter is still in a state of poisoning. If you don't believe it, you can find a doctor for examination. My granddaughter’s condition.”
After hearing the other party's words, Nazuo just said, "I have some medical skills. It's late at night and most medical clinics are closed, so I'd better do it."
After the police officer agreed to the request, he immediately examined Zhou Yaoniang, who was still unconscious.
The results of the examination were naturally exactly the same as what the doctor had examined.
Zhou Yaoniang was indeed poisoned, and the poisoning was chronic. As a result, her body was weakening day by day. If she had not seen the doctor, or the doctor had lied, Zhou Yaoniang would probably die directly this week. Wu Zuo stood up and looked at the policeman and nodded.
However, although Zhou Yaoniang was poisoned this time, it does not mean that what Mr. Zhou said must be credible.
After all, in the understanding of the police, the grandfather is already a relative outside. Even if someone should take care of such a big thing in the Zhou family, the person in charge should be his parents, grandfather, and uncles.
So the police officer only said, "You said that Xu Tianyi is so vicious, why don't you see Zhou Yaoniang's parents come to deal with this matter? And if it doesn't work, you can still report it to the official!"
Facing the police officer's question, the old man just raised his head and said, "Sir, we do plan to report to the official. We originally planned to escort this kid to see the official early tomorrow morning, but none of us know why this guy is here." Just ran away."
"Although we are a maternal family, she is also a granddaughter after all. Something happened to my daughter, and my son-in-law was exiled three thousand miles away. My grandparents also died long ago, and my uncles are not from the capital, so those servants People just sent my granddaughter to us."
"Where is the servant who sent us here? And where is your grandson-in-law?" the detective continued to ask coldly.
The old man of the Zhou family felt speechless at the police officer's question, but he still said honestly, "My grandson-in-law was originally tied up in the woodshed. If he is not there now, the old man must have run away."
"As for the servant who was sent here, the old man doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. He has to go to the pile of burned servants to identify him."
Upon hearing this, the policeman just signaled to the others to quickly go to the woodshed to look for the second body.
At this time, the old man was just preparing to go over with a cane to identify the corpses. Unexpectedly, at the same time, a young man wearing burlap clothes and looking very smart suddenly appeared in front of them. He shouted to the policeman: He said, "I am the servant who sent the young lady here."
Seeing Wang Cai, everyone in the Zhou family breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the Wang Cai was not dead.
Facing Wang Cai, the catcher just frowned.
Frowning, "Who are you?"
At the same time, the second eldest son of the Zhou family immediately came out and said, "Sir, this is the old slave of the Zhou family who sent my niece here a few days ago, Wang Cai."
Hearing what the second son of the Zhou family said, the policeman just looked the young man up and down.
"Tell me about the process of transporting your lady here."
Faced with the detective's questioning, Wang Cai just recounted the previous events again without being humble or condescending.
The policeman also said, "If it is what you say, then the biggest suspect in setting the fire today is your grandson-in-law."
After saying this, the policeman who was searching in the woodshed that had been burned to ashes also ran over and said to the headman in front of him, "Sir, we have carefully searched the woodshed and other rooms." I checked it again, and now there are no other corpses.”
After hearing this, the head catcher quickly came to a conclusion, "In that case, it is very possible that Xu Tianyi is the culprit who set the fire."
After coming to this conclusion, the head catcher immediately said to the policeman beside him, "You guys, search for me quickly. Search the whole town carefully. We must arrest this arsonist! Did you hear that?"
Faced with the arrest's call, the others naturally just responded loudly, "I heard it."
Then the catchers were like fish in a pond, and they quickly spread out to look for traces of Xu Tianyi in the small town of Yangliu.
Besides this God's will, after he set fire to climb over the wall, he did not leave here immediately. He was just hiding under the wall. After all, the street was empty and there were patrols. If he rashly walked onto the street at this time, the Wuhou on the street would be able to catch him with ease.
