Seeing Liu Wenbin admitting his crime, the scene suddenly became silent and dead.
People were once again stunned by the scene in front of them, extremely shocked.
Even Qiu Batian and others who had been cleared of their grievances felt unbelievable, as if they were dreaming.
Seeing this, Sima Xin also waved to his subordinates and ordered people to take the mother and son out.
These mother and son are Pan Wending's wife and son.
There were two main reasons why Pan Wending confessed: one was because he was afraid that Sima would threaten his wife and children by threatening him; the other was that he had revealed to his wife that he wanted to seek revenge on Qiu Batian.
Now, since Sima Xin has brought his wife here, it naturally means that he has obtained the information he wants from his wife.
Therefore, Pan Wending knew that his situation was over, and no matter how he tried to quibble, it would be useless.
At this moment, Sima Xin sent someone to take away his wife and children. He was also explaining to Pan Wending that as long as Pan Wending confessed his crime, he would not touch his wife and children.
"Okay," at this time, Sima Xin was naturally even more proud when he saw Pan Wending confessing his crime, and said, "In that case, let's tell you the truth about your crime!"
"Okay, let me tell you," Pan Wending calmed down and said, "Your Excellency, you are right. I planned this case. I took advantage of Ailian's favor for me and Uncle Li's repayment of my Pan family's favor. Heart.
"I promised Ailian that as long as I can kill Qiu Batian, I can take back Zuixianju and my Pan family's property. When the time comes, I will sell all my property, fly away with Ailian, and live a happy life.
"She believed me, so she ignored the shame and acted out a scene on Yong'an Street where she was abandoned naked..."
"Tsk tsk... tsk tsk..." Hearing this, the county governor Cai Jin, who had not spoken for a long time, smacked his lips and said, "This thing is really done in an unethical way. An unmarried girl from a good family... Well, I ask you, why not Find a brothel girl somewhere else?"
"This..." Pan Wending said, "Only an out-and-out local woman from a good family can be more trustworthy, more able to win sympathy, and arouse common excitement."
Although the words were spoken lightly, people could clearly feel that this Pan Wen must be cruel enough.
"For this reason," Pan Wending added, "we also arranged for Ailian and Qiu Batian to have a conflict and have a quarrel in the market. This will make it easier for people to think of Qiu Batian."
"Okay, what about Old Man Li?" Sima Xin asked, "Did he also willingly commit suicide by taking poison?"
"Yes," Pan Wending said, "Uncle Li was already suffering from a serious illness and his life was not long. He was willing to die."
"What about...the daughter?" Cai Jin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Does he know you want to touch his daughter?"
"No..." Pan Wending quickly shook his head, "On the contrary, I promised him that I will take good care of Ailian!"
"Then...then you killed someone else's daughter!!? You..." Cai Jin stood up excitedly and cursed, "You are simply a beast!"
“I have no choice,” Pan Wending gritted his teeth and said, “If Ailian doesn’t die, there will be loopholes in the interrogation in the future.
"Because Ailian has never been to Qiu Batian's house and doesn't know Qiu Batian's men. Once we go to court in the future, she may become our fatal weakness. Only if she dies can we avoid future troubles forever!"
"It's too cruel, it's too cruel," Cai Jin pointed at Pan Wending and yelled, "This is called repaying kindness with evil, ungratefulness. People do that for you, but you turn around and kill them. It's... it's..."
Cai Jin was so excited that he couldn't find any adjectives, but he successfully set the pace, making everyone present look at Pan Wending angrily, feeling extremely angry at his evil deeds.
However, only three people at the scene had the opposite reaction, namely the two county officials and Cheng Xiao.
Because they knew a secret thing, that was, it was not Ailian who died under Old Man Li's collapsed beam.
It is very likely that Pan Wending was merciful and replaced Ailian with a corpse dug out of the grave, so as to ensure that there would be no omissions in the future and to fulfill his promise.
But...at this time, this secret seems to be of no importance.
Even if Ailian is not dead, it is difficult to change the fact that Pan Wending is the real murderer.
"Yes, I am not a human being," Pan Wending said dejectedly, "They were so kind to me, but I hurt them...I...I promised to fly away with Ailian, but I failed her. I am not a human being, I am not a human being. …”
As he spoke, he slapped himself hard, and even though he was wearing a torture instrument on his hand, it still made a crackling sound.
"Okay," Sima Xin was relatively experienced. Seeing Pan Wending's unstable mood and worrying that Pan Wending would suddenly collapse, he changed the subject and said, "Now that the facts of the case have become clear, this case can be finalized!
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." He also smacked his lips and said to County Magistrate Song Zhili, "Did you see Magistrate Song, now you know how to investigate the case?
"What's the point of colluding with the jailer and Li Sanji? He just committed suicide!
"Also, don't you think if the confessions of so many people are too consistent, it will look deliberate?
"It seems that you have worked very hard to get Qiu Zhennong involved in this case, hehehe..."
"this……"
Hearing this, Song Zhili suddenly felt ashamed, his face was full of shame, and he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
But Chen Houlu could no longer hold on and collapsed on the spot.
If you think about it, you will know that these two county officials have done their best!
"Wait a minute!" Unexpectedly, at this moment, Pan Wending suddenly stood up and said loudly, "Sir, my confession hasn't been finished yet, and I haven't revealed my motives yet!
"You all still don't know why I want to seek revenge from Qiu Batian, right?"
"No need!" Sima Xin seemed to have been prepared. He immediately winked at his subordinates and said, "I'm not interested in your motives. Someone, pull them down!"
Upon hearing the order, the officers quickly grabbed Pan Wending to pull him out of the courtroom.
"Ah?" Pan Wending was shocked, and immediately struggled violently, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Qiu Batian not only occupied my Zuixian Building, but also killed my whole family, my whole family! My parents, brothers and sisters, They were all killed by him!
"Although I have confessed my crime now, it is an indisputable fact that Qiu Batian killed my whole family! Do you want to turn a blind eye to such a serious murder?"
"Pull it down!" Seeing this, Cai Jin quickly urged the officers, "Hurry up, hurry up..."
The officers knew that the matter was of great importance, so someone immediately knocked Pan Wending over with a stick, and then pulled him hard to the back hall...
"I don't accept it. It's unreasonable!" Pan Wending grabbed the ground with his hands, squeaking, and roared angrily, "You officials wear the same pants as Qiu Batian, and you protect him just because he has a backing. Just wait for me. , I want to appeal, I want to file a petition..."
"Wait!"
Unexpectedly, after hearing Pan Wending's words, Sima Xin suddenly changed his mind, waved his hand and said, "In that case, I will argue with you."
When the officer heard this, he had to stop.
"Sir," Pan Wending said quickly, "I admit the sins of Mr. Li and his daughter, but please, you must also make the decision for the blood feud between my family of five!"
"Oh? Really?" Sima Xin raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a hint of coldness, and said, "Okay, then you can tell me about it!"
