Zhao Lin did not take Gao Xiaoliu and Duan San back to the Yamen, but came to his house on Shuncheng Street.
The two gamblers were uncooperative at first, but when they saw Tao Er stunned, they became more honest one after another.
Zhao Lin was a little surprised. After asking, he found out that Tao Erleng had an outstanding reputation for being ruthless. All the scoundrels in the city had heard of his reputation. Seeing him was like a mouse seeing a cat.
"This will be easy to handle."
Zhao Lin asked the two of them directly: "You testified that Chai Jie was at the casino all night, so let me ask you, how many times did he relieve himself that night?"
"Don't talk yet. Put your hands behind your back and compare them with your fingers. If you two compare differently, it means someone is lying!"
The two looked at each other, and Gao Xiaoliu was confused: "Master, I am also playing with money, how can I keep looking at him?"
Zhao Lin asked back: "Since you didn't keep an eye on him, how do you know he never left the casino?"
"this……"
Gao Xiaoliu was at a loss for words, and Duan San interjected: "We didn't follow him, but the casino isn't big, so we didn't look up. He won a lot of money that day, and we all saw it with our own eyes."
"Yes, that's it." Gao Xiaoliu said quickly.
"You won't say it, right?"
Zhao Lin didn't want to waste time, so he reached out and grabbed the collars of the two men, picked them up, and said to Tao Er blankly: "Let me compare my skills with you."
Tao Er was stunned and perked up, and asked, "How to compare?"
"You hit them on the head with your fist. If you hit them, I win. If you hit them, I win."
As soon as Zhao Lin's words came out, the two gamblers immediately screamed: "Sir, let me down!" "This is going to cost someone's life."
Tao Er ignored them and punched Gao Xiaoliu in the head.
The fist wind roared, and Gao Xiaoliu was so frightened that he closed his eyes.
Seeing that the fist was about to hit, Zhao Lin suddenly took two steps back and barely managed to avoid it.
Tao Er was stunned for a moment, then he jumped up to catch up and punched Duan San with his fist.
Duan San was trembling all over and shouted at the top of his lungs: "I'm here to move, let me down!"
Zhao Lin felt that the fire was not enough. To deal with such a lazy person in the market, he must be shown how powerful he is.
He deliberately lured Tao Erluo to a pile of bricks, and waited for him to punch him, wiping the cheeks of the two gamblers and hitting them on the pile of bricks.
Boom... sand and gravel flew, and a large piece of the brick stack collapsed.
Gao Xiaoliu and Duan San almost burst into tears, and said hurriedly: "Sir, spare your life, I will attack you, I will attack you with anything." "I will attack you too, I will say it first!"
"stop!"
Zhao Lin stopped Tao Er Leng and threw them to the ground.
As soon as Gao Xiaoliu and Duan San's feet touched the ground, they immediately collapsed into a ball of mud.
Tao Er was stunned and still didn't understand, "Why can't we compare half the time?"
Zhao Lin looked at the two of them and said coldly: "Tell me, how much money did Chai Jie give you for false testimony?"
"Five taels of silver."
Gao Xiaoliu and Duan San said in unison.
He Qingquan's eyes widened and he thought, could it really be Chai Jie who did it?
"very good."
Zhao Lin nodded, "But this alone is not enough. We have to prove that he went out at night, and it was around Xu Shi."
"I can prove it."
Gao Xiaoliu raised his head and said quickly: "I was late that day because I had something to do. When I arrived at the casino, I happened to see Chai Jie coming out of it."
"I also asked him why he was going, and he said he was going out to eat."
Zhao Lin asked: "What time?"
Gao Xiaoliu thought for a while, "It's not dark yet, it should be dawn."
Duan San said: "I came out to relieve myself after dark, and saw Chai Jie running in from outside, and I almost ran into him."
"Tell me the time."
"It's getting dark, it's probably midnight."
Zhao Lin made a plan in his mind. He would go out at seven o'clock in the evening and come back at nine o'clock. The time would be right.
"By the way, what was he wearing when you saw him?"
"Moon white robe."
"Blue silk shirt."
Gao Xiaoliu and Duan San replied respectively, and their faces changed color after speaking.
Now, no matter how stupid they were, they understood that there must be something fishy about Chai Jie changing clothes at night!
Chai Qihong happened to die during that time. It would be damning to say that this matter had nothing to do with Chai Jie.
"Do you understand? This case is a major crime of beheading. How dare you give false evidence and cover up the murderer, risking your life?" Zhao Lin's voice became colder.
Gao Xiaoliu and Duan San were so frightened that they knelt down and kowtowed, "Please give me a way to live, I will never dare to do this again."
Zhao Lin ignored them for a while and then said: "I can give you a chance to atone for your sins, but if you fail, you will go to jail!"
…
In the morning, Gao Xiaoliu and Duan San came to the door of Chai's house, grabbed the door knocker and knocked hard.
"Who is it?"
After a while, a lazy voice sounded in the yard.
"I, Gao Xiaoliu, Duan San." The two shouted loudly.
"What's the name of the ghost in the morning?"
Chai Jie cursed and opened the door, glanced behind the two of them, and said angrily: "What's the matter?"
Gao Xiaoliu chuckled, "My brothers are a little short of money recently, so I asked Brother Chai to borrow a few dollars to spend some time."
Duan San also stepped forward and said: "I heard that you sold out my father's lumber shop, and it fell into your hands, right?"
"No money, get out!"
Chai Jie didn't wait for them to finish speaking and closed the door with a bang.
"Hey, Mr. Chai, why is he like this?"
"That's right, yesterday the official came to ask questions, and we all said what we agreed on."
"Since Mr. Chai doesn't appreciate it, let's tell the truth when the official comes next time."
"It makes sense. It's not worth taking such a big risk for nothing..."
The two of them were talking to each other, and their voices were getting louder and louder.
"Come in and talk."
Chai Jie opened the door with a sullen face...
"Boss Zhao, if we don't send people to keep an eye on them, aren't you afraid that they will run away?"
The four of them, Zhao and Lin, sat in a private room of a restaurant on the adjacent street, ordered a table of food and wine, and ate happily.
Seeing Zhao Lin's calm demeanor, He Qingquan couldn't help but ask.
Of course, Zhao Lin would not say that he could hear every move of the two of them, and said calmly: "The monk can run away, but he can't run away from the temple. They are not stupid, they can carry it clearly."
He Qingquan admired him: "It only took Capt. Zhao one day to find the culprit, and he was able to think of this plan to lure the snake out of the hole. This is really the first time that I have been in the Yamen for many years..."
"Excellent!"
Zhao Lin raised his hand to stop his flattery, walked to the window, and listened attentively to what was going on in the Chai family.
He asked Gao Xiaoliu and Duan San to find Chai Jie, which was an impromptu idea.
The Chai family doesn't say it's big, it doesn't matter whether it's small.
I just rushed in and searched. With just a few people, I don't know how long it would take.
If you borrow someone from Sun Zhang, don't even think about it. Your credit will definitely be swallowed up, and you won't get any benefits.
Moreover, if the evidence is not in Chai's house, it will make Chai Jie alert, and it may be difficult to find it again.
After much thought, Zhao Lin came up with a way.
In a crowded place, if someone shouts "Watch your wallet", most people will subconsciously touch their wallet.
Little did they know that this would expose the place where the money was placed, giving people an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Zhao Lin originally wanted to be the person who shouted "Beware of your wallet", but Chai Jie was shrewd and cunning, and his intervention might arouse the other party's vigilance, so he asked Gao Xiaoliu and Duan San to come and test him.
As for what to say and how to say it, he had already rehearsed it with the two of them in advance.
