Zhixi had no choice but to place the garbage at the door, then go back and stay at Wu Chengsi's bedside.
Wu Chengsi fell asleep peacefully.
…
But Di Ying, who lives far away in Qingfan County and Changwu Village in Youzhou, has no one to help him throw away garbage. And he kept rummaging through the trash.
For him, who has a naturally different sense of smell than ordinary people, this is simply more torture than torture.
However, he only covered his mouth and nose with a cloth handkerchief, and climbed up and down the garbage mountain like a normal person.
The artifact Di Ying was looking for was really big or small. Following the murderer's idea of hiding the weapon, he searched here and there.
could not find it.
Instead, I found medicinal residue held in a broken pottery basin at the bottom of the garbage pile.
There was also a torn, bloody piece of clothing.
Apart from the different shapes and different positions on the clothes, the texture and degree of wear were almost identical to the piece of clothing that Liang Feng had shown him.
There was a slight difference: this one was older and dirtier.
Di Ying twisted the dust on the corner of his clothes and his eyes moved slightly.
Then he put away the corner of his clothes, grabbed a handful of medicine residue, and went to the river.
Shen Chengyue had been washed clean, and all her hair had been thrown back, revealing a skinny face that had been weathered by years and looked like old tree bark.
There was hatred and disgust in the eyes looking at the three of them.
Xie Jing took a new set of clothes from the bag next to the saddle and gave them to Shen Chengyue to put on.
Di Ying asked Xie Jing to buy this new set of clothes on the way here.
Di Ying could guess Shen Chengyue's shape without using her toes.
Di Ying sprinkled the medicine dregs next to Shen Chengyue, then took his pulse, then took off his clothes and soaked in the river.
Xie Jing hurriedly jumped into the water again and went to help the adults wash their hair.
Di Ying thanked him with a smile, and then asked Shen Chengyue who was wearing clothes on the bank.
"I heard that you often have trouble sleeping due to old injuries. Therefore, you went to the doctor to prescribe a prescription that can help you sleep well. Are these medicine residues left behind after you decoction the medicine?
I have a few questions for you. First, the normal way for people to dispose of drug residue is to pour it into the trash can or bury it somewhere outside the hospital.
Why are you hiding it all under the garbage mountain? He also used a broken basin to hold it in place. All your rubbish can be exchanged for some copper coins. This pile of medicine dregs cannot be replaced, so why are you keeping them so carefully?
But you didn’t keep them all, right? Only those from the past three years, whenever a boy was killed, were kept. how? Was it intentionally left for others to see?
You know that when a doctor sees those medicine residues, he can tell when they were tortured, right? Do you want to use this to prove your innocence?
But you have overlooked one thing. I tell you that doctors can tell when someone is being tortured. As for me, I can see from it that the quantity of those medicinal materials is not enough.
how to say?
It's just that the amount of medicine prescribed in that prescription is too sufficient. Let alone you, even an elephant will fall asleep like a dead dog after drinking a bowl of it.
So, you reduced the amount of medicinal materials by 80%, right? Only 20% of the amount was cooked.
I ask you, what are you playing at?
Just now, you can see everything at a glance, and I have checked your pulse. You do have some old diseases in your body, but they are not serious enough to make you unable to sleep in pain as you walk here and there all day long.
Not to mention Lieutenant Liang's suspicion of you, now I also believe that you are seriously suspected of persecuting those boys. "
Shen Chengyue, who was questioned in this way, spoke after hearing every word clearly.
The voice was as dry as a young seedling in the desert making its final struggle.
"Who are you?"
"I'm from the capital city, and I'm currently investigating these six serial cases. What? Are you willing to say something?"
Di Ying answered him, and then said with a serious face: "This is the last chance I give you. If you don't plan to identify anything, I don't mind using the most cruel criminal law recently researched by the Ministry of Punishment." interrogate you.
I heard: The effect is very good. No one can survive this. Do you want to try that kind of long and extreme pain that makes you unable to die or live? "
When Zhou Lin heard what the adults said, his eyes drifted slightly. I heard that the adults in his family rarely tortured criminals. Now that he is saying this, does he really mean that he will be tortured? So why don't you say "I am Di Ying"?
As soon as this thought came to mind, Zhou Lin shook his head. The intentions of their adults are definitely not that simple. Punishment has always been the right of adults without any restrictions.
Is it because your master hates this guy Shen Chengyue?
Xie Jingze thought nothing of it. He washed the adult's hair and rubbed the back. After the adult finished washing, he helped the adult carry clean robes.
Di Ying refused him any further help in dressing, told him to change clothes too, and then dressed herself.
During this period, Shen Chengyue, who was questioned, just sat on the ground, lowered his head and said nothing. Even though it was a new set of clothes, which was very rare for Shen Chengyue, Shen Chengyue didn't feel any pain at all.
Di Ying saw that he stopped talking and was not in a hurry.
After putting on his robe, he stood with his hands behind his hands and said softly: "Human, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
If a person does not have enough to eat for many years, it will be difficult to endure hunger again after a period of time.
You hungry. But you are used to being dirty. I don’t know how long it’s been since I wore new clothes. Now I'm suddenly clean, and I feel like I've lost dozens of pounds, right?
Don't worry, I won't make you dirty again. But now this is your most relaxed time, and you still refuse to admit anything.
It seems that you don't quite believe what I said.
This is a new punishment you have to try yourself. You have to think clearly: a person who is often exposed to torture instruments is actually the most afraid of punishment.
It definitely won't make you habit-forming. Being tortured never accumulates into a habit, it only accumulates fear, huge fear.
Judging from your appearance, it must have been some time since the last time you were tortured. Now that you hear about a new boy abuse case, are you afraid again? Are you afraid of being invited to be tortured? Did you guess that we official officials are here? "
Yes, Shen Chengyue was scared, very, very scared. When he heard these words, his whole body began to twitch "habitually".
Almost every inch of her body was shaking, visibly shaking. Shaking like dead leaves in the wind. Tears and snot also flowed down at this moment. He couldn't even close his mouth, and drool was flowing down the corners of his mouth.
He closed his eyes tightly and hugged himself deeply, wishing he could disappear where he was.
spoke.
