Wow, wow...
The cell door opened from the outside, but Shen Yu, the tiger girl, came in from the outside carrying a man with a depressed look on his face.
Shen Mingchen and Cheng Xiao were followed behind, and they were equally dejected.
However, as soon as several people entered the house, they were shocked by the bloody scene in front of them.
But he saw an unrecognizable man lying on the ground. This man's body was curled up and motionless. He looked like he was dead.
And there was a person standing next to the dead man, it was Xu Zhen.
"Ah?" Shen Yu was shocked and asked quickly, "Senior Brother Xu, what's wrong? Who is this person?"
"It's okay," Xu Zhen said casually, still breathing heavily, "This man is Cui Meng's subordinate. I just wanted to interrogate him to see if he knew Cui Meng's secret. Did he break free from the rope and want to kill me? Fortunately...he is not my opponent, huh..."
"this……"
Even Shen Yu, no matter how reckless he was, could see that the deceased's face had been kicked and deformed, and it didn't look like there had been a fierce fight.
"Leave him alone," Xu Zhen pointed at the person in Shen Yu's hand and asked, "Is this Cui Meng? How about it? Did he recruit it?"
"well……"
Hearing this, all three people frowned and looked helpless.
"What's wrong?" Only then did Xu Zhen see the problem. Cui Meng was obviously unconscious.
"This man is sick!" Shen Yu answered. "After a few interrogations, he foamed at the mouth and almost died. Fortunately, my father gave him an injection in time and sealed his bloodline. Alas..."
After saying that, Shen Yu put the man in his hands on the chair and began to tie him up. Shen Mingchen squatted aside, feeling his pulse and breathing, for fear that he would die at any time.
But Cui Meng was pale and skinny, and he looked really sick.
"This is trouble," Cheng Xiao squatted aside helplessly, "I don't understand, how could Cui Xiaotian come to the door so quickly? How did he know that it was us who kidnapped his son? I have already counted the number of people, our people Are they all here?"
As he spoke, he looked at Shen Yu almost reflexively.
"Hey, Capt. Shen, what do you think I'm doing?" Shen Yu waved her hands hurriedly, "We are acting together. I was mute the whole time this time. It's really not me!"
"Could it be..." Shen Mingchen asked suspiciously, "Is there really a traitor?"
As soon as he said this, Xu Zhen glanced at Erxin's body unconsciously. Fortunately, he silenced the boy in time.
"It's useless, alas!" Cheng Xiao covered his face with his hands in frustration, and said in frustration, "Not only have we stirred up a hornet's nest, but the confession has not yet been heard, what should we do? Just watch, we won't be able to wait until tomorrow night , the state and county offices will come to a large number of people to vouch for Cui Xiaotian, alas..."
"Don't be discouraged," Shen Mingchen advised, "haven't you already gone to see the doctor? Wait until Cui Meng wakes up before continuing to interrogate him. I think he was so scared just now, so it shouldn't be difficult to interrogate him."
"The key is..." Cheng Xiao looked at Shen Mingchen, "Our detectives have also begun to suspect. Chen County Cheng clearly said that Cui Xiaotian was taken away by the state government, but now he is taken to our county jail. Do you think they can avoid being suspicious?
"So many people died just now. I don't think anyone can take over this mess, right? I don't know what's going on with Master Song. I don't know how to explain it to Master Sima and Master Cai!
"Maybe, when they find out that the person just now is Cui Xiaotian, they will immediately ask us to release him. I'm afraid it's too late to run away now, right? Sigh..."
"Wait...wait a minute...you just said...a mess?" Who knows, just when the morale was extremely low, Huniu Shen Yu thought of something and said, "I think about it, since Cui Xiaotian helped Cui Meng clean it up back then. The mess, does that mean that Cui Xiaotian also knows that Cui Meng is the ghost-faced killer?"
"Um?"
Needless to say, Shen Yu's words were really constructive, which immediately made everyone's eyes brighten.
"Yes!" Shen Yu said excitedly, "Since we can't interrogate Cui Meng, let's interrogate Cui Xiaotian! As long as he can prove that Cui Meng is the ghost-faced killer, hehe... um..."
While being excited, Shen Yu found that everyone's eyes dimmed again.
yes……
If Cui Xiaotian is interrogated, who dares to interrogate him, and how?
Cui Xiaotian is not an ordinary person. He knows full well that the Yamen can't lock him down at all!
He knew better that as long as he gritted his teeth and said nothing, nothing would happen!
He will also remember every person who interrogated him and arrested him, waiting for crazy revenge in the future...
The most important thing is that time is really running out. Cui Xiaotian may be released anytime, anywhere...
what to do……
what to do?
Shen Yu turned his attention to Xu Zhen, because Xu Zhen always had an idea at every critical moment.
However, this time, Xu Zhen also frowned, showing the same helplessness and frustration as everyone else...
…
Bang! Bang! Bang!
At three o'clock in the middle of the night, the sound of Sima Xin banging the table came from the county government office hall.
"Song Zhili, you are so brave!" Sima Xin yelled, "We have been in Yanping all this time, and you actually hid such a big thing from us? You...you, you, you..."
"Yes," Cai Jin agreed, "Such a big thing must be known to the governor. Cui Xiaotian, don't you know why Cui Xiaotian can open casinos all over Songzhou?"
Poof!
Song Zhili knelt down in front of the two of them and burst into tears: "My lords, my son is eleven and my daughter is nine. Our children are tied up. I...I have no choice but to do so!"
"A monk is subjected to severe torture, his skin is peeled off, and his tendons are beaten. If you don't believe it, he won't tell you..." Cai Jin pointed at Song Zhili and said in a trembling voice, "How could you touch Cui Xiaotian? Don't talk about the county. This side of the government office, even the state capital side, is... not good either, alas..."
"Sir," Song Zhili defended, "Cui Xiaotian's son is the ghost-faced killer who murdered six girls back then. By doing this, I am also upholding my Daxuan law and justice!"
"Where's the evidence?" Sima Xin slapped the table and patted his thigh, "Is there any evidence? I don't mean that I won't let you uphold the law and justice. The point is, if you really want to reverse the case, you have to follow the procedures?
"Outside... there are so many people dead outside, who bears the responsibility? If you had spoken out earlier, would it have become the uncontrollable situation it is now?"
"Sir," Song Zhili said, "if we follow the procedure, all my children will be gone. Then the monk will only give me thirteen days. Once the thirteen days are up, I will never see my children again!"
"Sir, you also have children. I hope you two adults can understand the difficulties of this official!"
"What's the use of our understanding?" Cai Jin jumped anxiously, "Someone from the Criminal Department is coming soon, Qiu Batian's matter hasn't been finished yet, and such a big thing happened again!
“What’s the matter, you Yanping claim to have three mountains, do you want to uproot them all?
"I'm telling you, you still can't predict the consequences of Qiu Zhennong's matter!
"Now, if you mess with Cui Xiaotian, I can tell you with certainty that you can't touch him. You are so stupid..."
Since Wei Yulang belongs to the system, the officialdom only recognizes that there are three major bullies in Yanping County.
"Let's do this," Sima Xin said, "let Cui Xiaotian and his son go first. Let's quickly ask the governor for instructions. We will wait until we get the governor's instructions... Oops..."
As he said that, he remembered another important thing and jumped up quickly and said: "County Magistrate Song, hurry up and clean up all the corpses outside first, and don't let the people from the Criminal Department see it! There is nothing you can do if they see it. Explain..."
"I..." Chen Houlu couldn't say anything for a long time. He quickly responded after hearing this, "I'll do it, I'll deal with it..."
After saying that, he ran out of the inner hall as he wished.
"Lord Sima is right," Cai Jin thought for a while and agreed, "In this situation, we really shouldn't make any extraneous matters. Let Cui Xiaotian and his son be released first. After Qiu Zhennong's case is over and the governor's instructions are obtained, what else can we deal with? Ghost-faced killer!"
"Then...where are my children?" Song Zhili hurriedly bowed to the two of them, "This is absolutely impossible. Sirs, I beg you on behalf of my son and daughter!
"Once Cui Xiaotian and his son are released, my children will be gone. I...I can't lose them..."
"Oops..." Cai Jin deliberately helped Song Zhili up, but seeing Song Zhili's determination, he had no choice but to wave his sleeves and said coldly, "County Magistrate Song, you have to take the overall situation into consideration!"
Hearing this, Song Zhili was extremely heartbroken and thought to himself, Do I have to throw away the lives of my son and daughter to take care of the overall situation?
They are all parents, why are these officials so unsympathetic?
"In this case..." However, Sima Xin seemed to have some sympathy. After thinking about it carefully, he said, "Magistrate Song, you can hold on to Cui Xiaotian and his son for the time being, but you have to bear all the consequences yourself! You have to promise You can’t touch them, you can’t use torture!”
"Ah? This..." Song Zhili thought to himself, if we can't use torture, then what can I do to make him confess?
"Also," Sima Xin added, "the case of the Ghost Faced Killer is not just your county government's business, so no matter what is found or asked, you must report it to me in time, and the information must be sealed in the county government office. It must not be leaked outside..."
