"What evidence do you want? Just take these three thieves to the Yamen and interrogate them strictly!"
After the initial shock, Ren Changyi was already happy and almost raised his hand to order the arrest.
If Chen Zhijian was convicted of murder, he would really need solid evidence. A guard, an official, and a cook, what kind of evidence would these three servants need? The Yamen has plenty of evidence!
What's more, the whole case has become clear. Although it is horrifying, the truth can still be distinguished. He and this scholar from the east of Hedong joined forces to solve this strange case. It would not be a great reputation: "Fortunately, the county magistrate was not asked to come. The credit is not enough." Did it just fall on me? Haha!"
Di Jin also knows that at this point, the other party also knows that clamoring for evidence is just a pure fluke. But for him, the evidence is not just a formality, but to completely leave the other party speechless and leave nothing behind. future trouble.
So before Ren Changyi could arrest someone directly, Di Jin said: "There is actually a lot of evidence, such as the beheading weapon. Wu Jingqian did so many things the night before, and it is absolutely impossible to throw it very far, such as the mystery in the wine and food. Wang Ahe wanted to avoid the shopkeepers and clerks to find out which jar it was originally stored in and whether there was any left. Let the government officials search for the medicine, and they would definitely gain something... But if we want to break the theory of evil spirits, there is one more thing. Directly, bring out the evidence!"
Lin Xiaoyi and Lei Jiu went out and brought a quilt over.
Chen Mingxin had seen it before. He found it baffling at the time and still doesn't understand it now. But he also knew that this was the key to convicting the murderer. He immediately testified: "This is my young master's bedding. It has not been washed since this morning." !”
Di Jin said: "When I woke up this morning, I found that Mr. Ling was missing. When I touched the quilt, it was still warm. But is that so?"
Chen Mingxin's eyes turned red and he nodded.
Di Jin said: "But now you should know that the husband of the Chen family died unfortunately the night before yesterday. Who made the quilt warm?"
Chen Mingxin looked at Wu Jing suddenly.
Di Jin also looked at Wu Jing: "In fact, as long as the murderer is a human and not a real evil ghost, he has to sleep! And you haven't had any rest since the day before yesterday. You first entered the store and killed two people in a row at night. , cut the bodies into pieces and buried them, arranged snow piles, and waited for the snow to stop. Then yesterday, I stayed there for another day, keeping my spirits high to prevent anyone from discovering anything strange in the house...I'm afraid I stayed up until night, and I didn't sleep for two days and two nights. You are also very worried. You were tired, so after making sure that the book boy and the maid would not wake up, you lay down on Mr. Chen’s bed, covered with his quilt, and slept for a good night’s sleep!”
Chen Mingxin's lips trembled and he vomited.
It is so disgusting that the murderer sleeps under the quilt of the victim...
Wu Jingze ignored the book boy at all and continued to speak harshly: "Nonsense! This is obviously where my young master slept. He had been sleeping in it before he was captured by evil spirits this morning!"
Di Jin shook his head: "You really want to classify this case as a murder by evil spirits, so you made all these arrangements. And if someone knocks on the door, you have to come forward in time, and you will definitely not be able to take off your clothes. And sleeping.”
Wu Jing looked at his clothes and remained calm.
But Di Jin's gaze moved upward: "Where was your felt hat placed at that time?"
Wu Jing touched the hat on his head, and his expression finally changed.
Di Jin made a gesture, and Lin Xiaoyi and Lei Jiu unfolded the quilts and displayed one side in front of everyone.
A piece of the quilt was stained with a lot of black and gray hair, which was exactly the same color as the shabby felt hat Wu Jing wore on his head.
"He will take off your felt hat and compare it with the fur on it!"
Di Jin: "If you find a murder weapon in the wild, you can plead that it's not yours. If you find poison in the kitchen, you can plead that you don't know who put it there. But now, please explain, why is there something stuck in your son's bedding?" The hair on your hat? Could it be that the evil spirit hugged your felt hat and lay on Chen Zhijian’s quilt, leaving these behind? "
Xue Chao looked at the quilt desperately and murmured: "How could...how could it be like this..."
Wu Jing looked at the quilt steadily and suddenly laughed: "Wonderful! Wonderful! You were able to catch my little flaw and it became irrefutable evidence. Only today do we know that there are such punishments in the world. It's really shocking. It opened my eyes. If you had your Excellency three years ago, you wouldn’t have to be like this..."
"Your motive is really to scare the people of Kaifeng Prefecture with the evil ghost's murder, and to force the Kaifeng Prefecture to investigate an old case?" Di Jin said in a deep voice: "Last year, the evil ghost murder case in Yangwu County, Did you do it too?"
"What?" Ren Changyi couldn't help but asked: "Is this person the real murderer in Yangwu County?"
Unexpectedly, I didn't expect that one case was solved twice, and there was an unexpected surprise. This political achievement is great!
Wu Jing had always denied it before, but now he admitted without hesitation: "That's right! I was responsible for Yangwu's haunting case. I thought it would cause a disturbance in Kaifeng Mansion, but to my surprise, the dog official hired a Taoist priest to exorcise the evil spirits. , in the end it was nothing! Humph, the ones who died were street idlers after all, no one cares about their life or death, so this time I will kill a nephew who has the power to know the Kaifeng Mansion, and let’s see if you care about it!”
Xue Chao completely collapsed to the ground and wailed: "You lied to me...you lied to me...you clearly said that you and your son had a deep hatred...killed the people they wanted to kill each other...blamed it on the evil spirits... ...The county government will not investigate further..."
Wu Jing sighed softly: "Chen Zhijian is a gentle and kind person. He never speaks harshly to his servants. How can I have any grudge against him? If I had the choice, I would not want to harm him, but this kind of opportunity to protect the children of a wealthy family It’s not much. If you miss it, you don’t know how long you have to wait. You see, the night before yesterday, God made the snow gradually stop, just to persuade me to be cruel!"
Di Jin only had four words to comment on this: "Crazy!"
Wu Jing was noncommittal and smiled coldly: "Their deaths are worthwhile. Although the murder of the evil ghost was exposed, I also found someone who can find out the circumstances of the case..."
At this point, he suddenly drew his sword, and when the sharp light of the sword swept across, he reached out to grab it with his left hand. The strong wind seemed to cover all directions, but it was actually aimed at Di Jin: "Detective Di Shilin, come here!"
Amid the exclamations, Di Jin remained motionless and took it indifferently.
It's not that he doesn't want to take action, but he knows that someone has been gearing up and waiting for a long time.
"Come die!"
The beautiful figure flashed out, whipped out, and turned into a circle of whimpering and howling cold shadows, which in turn occupied the entire sight, trying to completely wrap Wu Jing in it!
"Well!"
Facing this blow, Wu Jing's expression changed drastically, his waist suddenly straightened up, his legs seemed to be rooted on the ground, and his strength rose from the ground. He turned the sword, narrowly and narrowly blocking this extremely cruel whip.
But even so, when the whip wind passed by, his felt hat that never left his head was blown open, revealing a short-haired head.
The person who made the move was none other than Di Xiangling. She had endured this pretending murderer for a long time, but she didn’t expect that the other party would actually take her own killing move in a hurry. At the same time, she recognized this offensive and defensive technique: "King Kong Unleashes the Heart" ...This is a trick from the Buddhist Four-door Sword! You are a warrior monk!"
"Wutai Mountain..."
Di Jin raised his brows and understood the last piece of the jigsaw puzzle of the inn ghost murder case: "No wonder you can make the cook Wang Ahe give up the small shop she runs and cooperate with you to complete this murder case. You are her The brother I mentioned was a monk in Mount Wutai!"
