The officer shrank his shoulders, smiled secretly, and after sighing in his heart at his own cleverness and the admiration of Master Di, he told the news that someone was killed outside the south gate.
Master Di and his entourage passed by his eyes like a gust of wind at the end of his words.
The Yamen thought with reverence and fascination: When will he become a person who can follow Mr. Di?
And no matter how fast Di Ying let Wu Yun run, he was still a little dumbfounded when he reached the place.
After Uncle Jian ran to Nancheng Gate to report the case, he returned to the place where Ke Yingying's accident occurred and waited with his two sons who never left.
Seeing some officials approaching quickly on horseback, Uncle Jian picked up his two sons and put them beside the road.
To be honest, he really wanted to take his sons and run away.
because……
"Did you report the case?"
Di Ying reined in his horse, dismounted a dozen steps away from the three men, and asked aloud while walking towards them.
Uncle Jian didn't know whether to nod or shake his head when asked. With an expression that showed he had not defecated for ten and a half months, he replied: "Yes, it was reported by the grassroots, but, but... the body is missing."
Di Ying's brows jumped sharply.
He immediately raised his hands and ordered: "Scatter around and search for clues. Don't let go of anything suspicious. Gong Shiba, look for traces."
The guards responded in unison, became cautious with their steps, and stared at the ground.
At this time, the first twilight of dawn had already appeared on the horizon.
However, the field of vision was still not that clear, and the guards almost all bent over and searched around.
Gong Shiba turned around a few times and jumped to a big tree beside the road.
Di Ying himself asked the reporter about the situation.
But... listening to Uncle Jian talking about what happened before and after meeting Ke Yingying, Di Ying's eyes were always fixed on Uncle Jian's two sons.
The two brothers, who were already hugging each other due to fright, hugged each other tighter and started to tremble a little.
After Uncle Jian finished his statement, Di Ying asked the two children.
"Before Shentu Siyuan disappeared, you two passed by his official residence; before Yu Wenyao disappeared, you two passed by the alley where he disappeared, and now, you two happen to be near the place where Ke Yingying disappeared...
The key is: you two also heard what your father said and found out that Ke Yingying died suddenly. You two stayed here and your father reported the case alone at the city gate. Now the body is missing. Can you two explain this? "
Jian Qi and Jian Xiang: "..."
They trembled and opened and closed their mouths; opened and closed their mouths...
At this time, even Uncle Jian was a little suspicious that something was wrong with his two sons. Seeing that they were unable to make a sound, Uncle Jian went up and wanted to beat them.
In the end, he stopped his hand, raised his fist and said: "You two hurry up and say it. If you don't say it, do you two want to be charged with murder? You will lose your head. This is Mr. Di, the great master of our people. , How rare it is that he is still asking you nicely, if it were another official, both of you would be dead now, please explain clearly quickly, and you can go home only after you explain clearly."
The two brothers were frightened by their father's disgusting appearance, so they backed away a little.
After being pressed again, Jian Qi murmured for several breaths, and the slightly older Jian Qi finally made a sound.
"That, that was a dead person... I, we were scared, so we both walked away a little, and turned around. It wasn't until my dad came back that we discovered that Sister Ke was missing... We didn't kill anyone, we really didn't kill anyone."
"Then why were you two such coincidences the first two times?"
Di Ying asked.
In fact, he really had a lot of questions that he wanted to ask the two brothers in detail, but seeing that they were so frightened and couldn't answer the questions, he had to be patient and take his time. Ask questions one by one.
But even after asking this question, it still stumped them both, and Di Ying realized that this question was actually not easy to answer.
Then he changed the question and asked again: "On the day Shentu Siyuan disappeared, what were you two doing at the government office?"
The two brothers had already answered this question, so they quickly replied: "That day, we were passing by the gate of the government office, and then someone called us and said that we should come in to help move some things and pay for it.
We both originally wanted to find a job in the city. As soon as we heard about the salary and we didn't dare to refuse the official, we went in.
They were moving some furniture and belongings from one yard to another, which seemed to be a pile of discarded debris. After we finally moved, the official actually gave each of us fifty copper coins.
That's a lot. We were very happy and walked outside the government office. There were government officials walking around everywhere. We were really scared and wanted to leave quickly.
In fact, we don’t know which courtyard belongs to that adult. We just followed the original route out.
Unexpectedly, not long after I walked out, when I was arguing on the street over whether to buy two steamed buns or a few steamed buns to take home, I was arrested by the official...
But Mr. Lu did not accuse us wrongly.
After questioning us, he found the official who asked us to move things, and after finding out everything, he let us go. "
As he talked, Jian Qi's mood stabilized a little, but he remembered the previous adult's question, which was also answered, and continued.
"The second time we were arrested again. I heard that another official disappeared. In fact, we were really wronged. We were wandering around the city for a long time, trying to find a job away from home. Do something that's closer, pays better, and doesn't get bullied.
Unexpectedly, I just passed by the entrance of an alley, and I didn't even take a look into the alley...it was only that small.
It was already evening by then, and we both hurried home.
As a result, I was arrested as soon as I got home. Neither of us had any idea what was going on. "
After Di Ying listened, he calculated the time in his mind.
From when Aunt Chen saw Yu Wenyao being attacked, to when Aunt Chen went to the state government office to report the crime, etc.
From the time when the two brothers passed by the entrance of the alley, and the time from the entrance of the alley to the brothers' home in the village.
After making the calculation, he asked: "After you two passed the entrance of the alley until you returned home, what were you delayed on the way?"
Here, there is a time difference of nearly half an hour.
This time, it was Jian Xiang who answered.
His brother's emotional stability quickly affected him, and his mood improved a lot.
He said aloud: "Because I had diarrhea that day and was delayed. We haven't found a long-term job yet. We can only do some short-term work after going to the city every day, and we can't bear to spend money on food."
That day, a lot of leftover food was thrown out of the back door of a wealthy family. We followed the beggars to grab food...
I don’t know why, but I got upset.
My brother was fine, so he supported me while looking for the toilet and then looking for the toilet.
It was more convenient after leaving the city, but I also ran out of strength. In the end, it was my brother who carried me home. But when I got home, before I could lie down, the official came. How come they recognize us so accurately? "
