"Master Wang, this is Capt. Xing. He was the one who discovered the two contacts that day, fought with the killer regardless of the danger, and dragged them to the rescue. However, the opponent was too strong, and Capt. Xing was seriously injured and dying, but was saved by the Marquis himself. When he came back, his martial arts skills were useless." Chang'an County Magistrate said.
Mr. Xing supported the sick body and asked, "County Master, who is this?"
"This is Wang Jishan, the prince of the Wang family, who is in charge of the investigation on the orders of the Marquis."
Xing Captou was surprised and said: "Wang Jishan? Is he the son of the Wang family in Taiyuan? The person who contacted him that day was his chamberlain. County Lord, then he is the mastermind behind the scenes. He should be taken down immediately! Why do you still let him go?" Is he going to take charge of the investigation?"
The county magistrate held down the excited Xing Capt. "Old Xing, this is the order of the Marquis himself."
"I want to see Mr. Hou! Letting the mastermind behind the scenes participate in the investigation is obviously a deliberate attempt to let him off the hook. Mr. Hou will never be so selfish..." Capt. Xing struggled to stand up.
Wang Jishan, who was next to him, spoke up, "Why do you assert that I am the mastermind behind this?"
Mr. Xing's eyes widened and he said, "That day, I saw with my own eyes your attendant going to meet the killer. I also heard the conversation between the two of them. Your attendant urged the killer to hurry up and said that it was delaying my young master's arrival. It’s a big deal, not to mention that we can’t get the ransom, and we can’t spare the killer!”
Wang Jishan frowned and said, "Did you see it with your own eyes? Did you hear it with your own ears? Tell me carefully."
"You? I can't talk to a murderer. Lao Xing is a soldier and you are a gangster. When will it be a gangster's turn to interrogate my detective?" Capt. Xing was very stubborn.
Wang Jishan took out the token.
Xing Baotou's breath was stagnant and he snorted coldly, "Okay, it's time to answer the Marquis' question."
So he described the situation of that day in detail.
Wang Jishan frowned and thought deeply, thinking that he was going to kill me. Is there no flaw in this? Attendant Wang Xiaoer has surrendered to the enemy? Or is it that he has an unknown origin and is deliberately lurking next to me? Waiting for this moment to ruin my reputation?
No, no, there must be other flaws!
After pondering for a long time, Wang Jishan suddenly had an idea: "Yes, yes, there is another possibility!"
Xing Captou said disdainfully: "What? Have you come up with a reason to quibble?"
Wang Jishan did not argue with him, but said with bright eyes: "Captain Xing, you have been handling cases for many years and have seen a lot. You should have heard of a kind of person who can ventriloquize and imitate voices, right?"
Xing Baotou nodded and said, "That's natural. There are people who learn to speak like others. What do you mean?"
Wang Jishan said: "I did not do this case. Someone else must have framed me. Either Wang Xiaoer, the attendant, framed me. I have sent people to investigate Wang Xiaoer's life experience. But he has been with Wang Xiaoer since he was a child. We grew up together, so we should not be enemies."
"If it's not this, then there is only one possibility. What you heard through the door was not Wang Xiaoer's voice, but the killer pretending to be both, deliberately letting you hear it."
The Chang'an County Magistrate reminded: "Master Wang, is a professional killer, but also a ventriloquist? Then even if Wang Xiaoer is innocent, is there no possibility of being bribed or blackmailed?"
Wang Jishan nodded and said: "It is possible, but I believe him. After all, he has been following me since he was a child. I even more suspect that the killer is deliberately acting."
Xing Captou said dissatisfied: "What do you mean? Do you doubt my professional ability, Old Xing? Stalking and tracking are my strengths. Not to mention that he is a professional killer, even if he is the best in the world like Mr. Hou, I can still get close to him." Undetected within one step."
"Ahem, Lao Xing, don't talk nonsense... just talk about the case. What are you talking nonsense about?" Chang'an County reminded with a slight cough.
Mr. Xing hurriedly shut up and questioned: "You said all this was deliberately staged by the killer? Why did he kill your silencer after I pushed the door open? Also, does the killer have any grudge against you? Will you risk your life for a mere bounty and finally choose to commit suicide?"
"Do you trust your own attendant? Haha, in my opinion, Lao Xing, I still trust my own eyes and ears more."
"Although I don't know what means you used to gain the Marquis's trust, I, Lao Xing, firmly believe in my judgment and will fight you to the end."
Wang Jishan nodded, "Don't worry, I, Wang Jishan, will not run away until I prove my innocence."
After that, he left with the Chang'an County Magistrate and others.
On the way, the Chang'an County Magistrate said: "Mr. Wang, everything is just your inference. Now Wang Xiaoer and Pinggu Yidianhong are dead, and there is no evidence of their death. We can't confirm whether Pinggu Yidianhong can ventriloquist, so we still can't give you a bath Get rid of injustice.”
Wang Jishan smiled and said, "County magistrate, Wang Xiaoer's original words in the testimony were: The young master is very dissatisfied, so he asked me to inform you."
"Attention, he said the young master, but he did not say it was my king Jishan."
The Chang'an County Magistrate retorted: "But he is your chamberlain, so of course he will do things for you."
"Haha, it's true that he is my chamberlain. Isn't it possible that he rebelled and worked for other princes?" Wang Jishan mocked, "So based on these, you can't absolve me, but I want to It seems a bit far-fetched to clearly convict someone. Tang law stipulates that no one is guilty beyond doubt."
Nodding, the Chang'an County Magistrate praised: "What Mr. Wang said is correct. Since Mr. Hou believes in you, this county is also willing to believe that Mr. Wang is innocent. However, this is not just a murder case. Both the government and the public have I'm waiting for an explanation, and when the critical moment comes, I won't care whether you are guilty or not, and I will push you out to make an explanation which seems to be the best choice."
"Therefore, the young master should do his best to prove his innocence, so as not to be unjustly accused by the current situation."
Wang Jishan cupped his hands and said, "I have been wronged by the current situation. The people behind the scenes are very smart and seem to have figured this out a long time ago. This has set up a dead end for me."
"Wait for two days, I will check everything about Wang Xiaoer and the killer. Now accompany me to Dali Temple, help me hire the best widower, and carefully examine Wang Xiaoer's body."
"If the killer is acting on his own, then he must restrain Wang Xiaoer from speaking, then wait until Xing Captou breaks in, and then kill Wang Xiaoer on the spot. It is impossible for such a method not to leave traces .”
The county magistrate somewhat admired this young man. He was not very good-looking and had never even gone out for a walk, but his clear thinking was rare in the world. He was also a man who soared into the sky.
At the same time, Mr. Xing, who was on the hospital bed, was also recalling that day.
Although Wang Jishan is suspected of being free of guilt, his speculation also brings a new perspective to Capt. Xing. What if it is justified? Then isn't he being plotted?
"But it shouldn't be. The killer is acting on his own, and he should escape in the end. The killer is not a dead soldier, he cherishes his life. Why did he choose to commit suicide in the end?"
After pondering for a long time, Mr. The desperate killer has been fighting for a long time, otherwise, I would have finished within ten moves, and he would have enough time to escape."
"That's right, that's it. No wonder, no wonder he was just testing it out at the beginning and didn't kill me. He seemed to just want to hurt me, not kill me to silence me. In the end, he was desperate and tried his best!"
"so……"
"But what happened to the contactor Wang Xiaoer? He did die in front of me!"
