While the policemen were making arrests, Song Zhili was naturally waiting in the Yamen anxiously and anxiously. He was pacing back and forth at the door of the cell.
He was worried that Cui Meng had not been caught, or that something had happened;
Secondly, I am worried, even if Cui Meng is caught, what if he refuses to plead guilty?
Although we knew he was the Ghost Faced Killer, we had no evidence at hand. How could we get him to speak?
Not only must he plead guilty, but he must plead guilty as soon as possible, at least before Cui Xiaotian comes to ask for someone.
However... this is a secret operation. If Shen Mingchen, Cheng Xiao and others are concealed, Cui Xiaotian will not soon suspect the Yamen.
Moreover, he heard that Cui Xiaotian has been busy expanding his business recently, and there is a high possibility that he is not in Yanping County.
As long as you can give yourself one night, you should be able to achieve your goal...
"Master Song," as a result, as soon as he thought of this, a Yamen servant quickly ran over, pointed in the direction of the court and said, "Master Sima and Master Cai are here!"
"Huh? So fast?"
Song Zhili grinned and frowned, feeling very unhappy.
However, no matter how uncomfortable it is, you still have to go and greet him.
So, he could only bite the bullet and trot all the way to the court.
When I came to the court, I saw that Sima Xin and Cai Jin were already seated in the court, with a group of energetic entourage standing behind them, all obviously prepared to welcome the officials of the Criminal Department.
At this moment, the county magistrate Chen Houlu was talking to them, making tea and water, and was very attentive.
Song Zhili quickly stepped forward to salute and greeted the two adults.
"Song County Magistrate," Sima Xin asked, "The people from the Ministry of Punishment should be here to remind the censor. I heard that they were afraid of an accident during the execution, so they specially brought a group of Yulin soldiers. They didn't even mobilize troops from Songzhou. !”
"If there are Yulin soldiers, there must be Yulin generals," Cai Jin reminded, "You have to prepare a place for them all to stay!"
"Don't worry, don't worry, haha..." Chen Houlu said with an apologetic smile, "We are ready. We have temporarily rented two restaurants in the southern suburbs to ensure good food and housing."
"Okay." Sima Xin nodded and said, "Also, the review of Qiu Zhennong's death penalty has been completed, and the governor has also given his approval. Once the documents arrive, we can set an execution time!
"The governor's intention is that the sooner the better, but when the censor comes, we still need to consult and listen to their opinions..."
Song Zhili couldn't understand what Sima Xin said, because all he wanted to do was capture Cui Meng.
Fortunately, Chen Houlu was tactful and responded immediately, without making the two adults suspicious.
Next, they began to discuss the specific details of the execution. After all, the execution was under the supervision of the Ministry of Punishment, and all execution links must be thought of to ensure that nothing goes wrong...
While they were discussing, Song Zhili saw Cheng Xiao waving to him in the distance and nodded gently.
After years of tacit understanding, Song Zhili immediately understood that it meant that the matter was done.
call……
Song Zhili suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Now that Cui Meng has been caught, more than half of the matter is settled, and the interrogation can begin next!
So Song Zhili also nodded to Cheng Xiao, which meant that he should proceed as planned and quickly interrogate Cui Meng.
As soon as Cheng Xiao left, Song Zhili was on pins and needles and couldn't stay any longer!
He always wanted to find an excuse to leave, but the two adults were talking about important things, and he really couldn't find a suitable reason.
After thinking about it, it seems that the only option is to use the trump card and lie about "gong".
Although it is insulting to Sven, Sven is naturally not as important as the life of his son or daughter.
At this time, the two adults were talking more and more enthusiastically. After talking about the appropriate execution of the punishment, they once again talked about the issue of Qiu Batian's house raid.
They said that if they hadn't blocked off Qiu Batian's restaurants in the past few days, someone might have been planning something evil.
oh……
After hearing this, Song Zhili finally understood that no wonder Sima Xin and Cai Jin brought so many people with them. They were not here to cheer, but to rob Qiu Batian's family property!
Indeed, because of the case of the Ghost Faced Killer, how could Song Zhili still care so much?
Before, he had only heard Sima Xin emphasize that the matter of Qiu Batian's house confiscation should be properly handled, saying that many people were watching, but now it seemed that they were the ones staring at Qiu Batian's property!
but……
Seeing that Sima Xin was speaking eloquently, Song Zhili resisted the urge to leave and listened to him.
It wasn't that he cared about Qiu Batian's property being divided, he just gradually realized that he had never experienced such a house raid.
By searching homes, it seems that certain goals can be achieved and unexpected effects can be achieved.
From this, he quickly thought of Cui Xiaotian and wondered if he could find a way out of the predicament...
Unexpectedly, when Song Zhili was thinking hard, there was a sudden noise outside the county government gate, including the shouts of government officials and the screams of someone being thrown down.
As soon as everyone raised their heads, they saw a large group of people rushing into the lobby menacingly!
These people were armed with sticks and other weapons, and all of them had fierce looks on their faces, like menacing gods.
"Sir, sir..." I saw the gatekeeper running in with his face covered in blood and shouting loudly, "These people are going to attack the yamen... Oops..."
The yamen servant was running too fast. Someone raised his foot and tripped him, causing him to fall into a black eye.
"ah!!?"
In an instant, not only Song Zhili and Chen Houlu were surprised, but Sima Xin and Cai Jin were also shocked and jumped up from their chairs.
Sima Xin, who was born in the army, immediately stood firm, holding a saber in his hand, ready for battle.
But Cai Jin had never seen such a scene before, and he was so frightened that he quickly hid behind his entourage.
"You...you..." Chen Houlu was shocked and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"Bold!" Although Song Zhili turned pale with fright, he still mustered up the courage to shout and shouted, "Do you know that attacking the Yamen with weapons is equivalent to rebellion!? Anyone who dares to do anything wrong will be punished by the Nine Clan!!!"
Unexpectedly, after Song Zhili shouted, the intruders who rushed in ignored them and strode forward with weapons in hand, surrounding several officials and numerous government servants.
The intruders were a mass of black people. Visually, there were sixty or seventy people in total, and it seemed that there were many outside the door who had not come in yet.
broken!
Seeing that his shock was ineffective, Song Zhili already realized who the intruder was!
Sure enough, after the crowd separated, a red-faced man wearing a blue mink velvet fur robe and a red face appeared in front of Song Zhili and others.
Song Zhili and Chen Houlu recognized at a glance that the person who came was none other than Cui Xiaotian, one of the four major bullies in Yanping County, Cui Meng's father, the owner of Wansheng Gambling House, and the so-called King of Hell Cui! ! !
