Di Ying's eyes moved slightly and he smiled and said: "Master Yi, please stop playing riddles with Huai Jie. You have been an official for decades and your official reputation has always been very good.
Even if you are begging for bones, Your Majesty will definitely give you another promotion, and you will be able to return to your hometown with honor and rest in peace. Your Majesty is not stingy on this point. You should be very sure about this in your mind.
Therefore, there is no need for you to come to Huai Jie to find a solution for this matter. But since you mentioned it, let’s think of your official voice of loving the people like your own children...
Huai Jie boldly guessed: Maybe there is an old case in Xuzhou that makes you feel stuck in your throat, stubborn and unable to let go?
You want Huaijie to do his best to help you settle this wish, but? "
Yi Yongsi laughed "haha", pointed at Di Ying and said: "As expected of Di Shen's case, you will hit it with one guess!"
After laughing, Yi Yongsi retracted his hand, put his hands on his knees, and bent his upper body slightly, as if he was unable to bear the weight.
The expression on his face also showed some depression.
He spoke with some difficulty: "Actually, it's not an old case. I've been the governor of Xuzhou for only five years, but when the previous governor was in office, the case happened for two years. It's been seven years now. .
But neither he nor the old man could crack the case. When he left office, he handed over the case to me. However, I was about to step down and leave Xuzhou, but I still did not fulfill his and my wishes.
I have to say, it is a huge regret. I really don’t want to give this wish to the next governor.
I have devoted myself to Xuzhou for many years, and I don’t want to leave with such a knot in my heart. If that really happens, I will die with my eyes closed. I feel sorry for the people of Xuzhou.
But no matter whether it is Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, the old man, or all the people under his command, they can't find any clues about the real murderer. They are simply... ashamed to be an official.
Actually, let me be honest, if you don't come, brother Huaijie, I will find a way to invite you. Brother, I must untie this knot in my heart before I leave office. Otherwise, I will die in Xuzhou. Do not enter the grave, do not bury the body in the soil, and expose the body in the wilderness to repay God's kindness! "
"Brother, you are serious."
Di Ying was in awe of Mr. Yi, stood up hurriedly and said, "Huaijie has my heart to ask you, and he is here at the right time. If I can do my best for you, Huaijie, I will do my best."
"good!"
Yi Yongsi slapped the table and stood up, his spirit suddenly lifted.
"Huaijie, with your words, I feel half at ease, brother. In this way, you can handle cases in my office. No matter whether you need people, strength or money, you can mobilize, direct and use them.
Brother, I will lead the entire government to cooperate fully with you. You must not be polite to me.
I will arrange for people to send the food you need to Weizhou and Jizhou day and night. I guarantee that it will be good food and good grain, and that it will be distributed in full. Don't worry! "
"I'm relieved."
Di Ying's eyes were slightly red, she straightened herself, clasped her hands, and thanked Yi Yongsi seriously.
Yi Yongsi also straightened up, clasped his hands, and thanked Di Ying seriously.
For the country and the people, you and I are of the same mind.
Yi Yongsi did what he said. While he asked the governor of the government office to cooperate with Di Ying in reviewing the cases, he also asked the government officials to mobilize soldiers and civilians to bring grain out of the warehouse and send it to the Wei Dynasty in a steady stream. , Ji two states.
Yi Yongsi personally supervised.
Di Ying looked at the boss's busy figure, pressed his eyes, and read through the case files overnight.
This is really not a small case, and it is indeed not an easy case to solve.
This is a serial murder case that lasted for seven years.
Starting from the first month of the lunar month seven years ago to March of the 26th year of the Great Xia calendar, which lasted 86 months, the number of victims reached 92.
The murderer kills one person every month, with a fixed number of months and an uncertain date. And the victims were all adult women. The six extra people were all children, both men and women.
The high probability is that the murderer will be discovered by those children when he kills someone. In order to silence them, they were killed together.
Let’s put the situation of these children aside for now.
There are three reasons why the government attributed these cases to a serial case.
First, they are all adult women. Although they vary in age, they are all adult women who are married and have children;
Second, the female features of the victims' breasts were removed after their deaths.
The third thing is that their faces were all crossed by the murderer using a sharp knife.
The six children killed by the murderer were all killed with one knife. There is no other damage except fatal wounds. Both boys and girls.
This further illustrates that the murderer only killed them incidentally and had no grudge against them.
At the end of this series of case reports, there is a box that is not a case case, but the result of a lot of efforts made by the former governor of Xuzhou and Yi Yongsi himself.
First of all: they persuaded the victim's family to bury the victim's bodies within an area designated by the government and not in effect.
Secondly: there are a large number of descriptions and confessions from the victims’ family members. As well as the household registration status of each victim, the household registration status of family members, etc., as well as the current situation.
There are even ongoing follow-up updates.
After all, seven years have passed since the earliest case, and some people are no longer alive, some are married, or have wives. Another child is born and so on.
The two governors have made up for the follow-up. The situation of the husband's family after marriage is also recorded one by one.
I have to say: they really tried their best. I really want to solve this serial case.
But the murderer is still missing and has never stopped killing innocent people.
After Di Ying summarized these characteristics one by one, he took Peng Liang, Zhou Lin, Xie Jing, and the guards to the place where the bones of all the victims of this serial case were buried.
Here, I have to say: this "eccentricity" of the former governor is quite good.
But before the case was solved, he would bury the victim's body on this hill.
Only after the truth of the case is revealed and the real culprit is executed, will he let the victim's family members pick up the body and move it to the grave.
Therefore, this small mountain is also called "Injustice Mountain." This is the name given to this mountain by local people. They will not pass by here, nor will they wander around on this mountain, let alone bury their family members in this mountain.
This is a sign of respect for the innocent victims.
After Yi Yongsi took over as the governor of Xuzhou, he also adopted this habit from his predecessor.
He would also bury the bodies of people who died in mysterious circumstances here.
