Xu Taiping saluted again.
Turn around to face Zhao Sanlang and his wife.
Open the file.
He tapped the file twice with his index finger: "Zhao Sanlang, I'm asking you this, whether your confession two months ago is true?"
"reality!"
"Is it accurate?"
"precise!"
"Is it detailed?"
"detailed!"
Xu Taiping nodded: "In your confession, you, Wang Wu, seemed to be possessed by your soul and walked into the deep water in a daze."
"Indeed."
"Then, the water ghost appeared, grabbed Wang Wu's hands, and pulled Wang Wu into the water until Wang Wu drowned."
"yes."
"Has the water ghost ever emerged from the water?"
"No."
Xu Taiping smiled.
Laughed.
Suddenly he shouted loudly: "You lied!"
Zhao Sanlang subconsciously denied it.
Xu Taiping did not give Zhao Sanlang a chance to explain.
He shouted sternly: "You lied! You didn't see the water ghost at all! It's impossible for you to see the water ghost!"
Finished.
He turned around and raised his hands to County Magistrate Zhou Yucheng: "Sir, after night falls, it is pitch black under the water. Ordinary people can never see what is under the water when looking from the shore.
"Zhao Sanlang kept saying that he saw the water ghost, and even saw the specific appearance of the water ghost. He was obviously perjuring himself to cover up the truth.
“Only the murderer has such a motive.
"That is to say, Zhao Sanlang must be the murderer of Wang Wu.
"Please tell me, sir."
At this time.
Zhao Sanlang hurriedly defended: "The moon was very bright that night."
Xu Taiping shouted coldly: "Zhao Sanlang, you are so defensive, it is better not to defend at all.
"This head catcher is not intended to explain to you the optical principles of the eyeball and the principles of specular reflection.
"You just need to know that the brighter the moonlight, the brighter the water will be. At a glance, the water will look like a mirror.
"At three o'clock on the fourteenth day of February, when the moon is rising, no matter whether there are clouds in the sky or not, you can't see the water ghost under the water.
“In other words, you have been lying since you reported the crime, and now you are telling lies even more.
"If you act like this, you are not the murderer, but you must be an accomplice."
Speaking of which.
Turning around again to face Zhou Yucheng: "Please be careful, sir."
Zhou Yucheng couldn't help but nod.
He praised: "Xu Baotou really has the demeanor of an old official, and he has rich experience in solving cases like a god. What he said is true.
"You can see through the murderer's perjury just by reading the file!
"here you go!
"This county needs people like Xu Baotou to keep up the good work."
Xu Taiping replied without changing his expression: "It all depends on your careful teaching."
Zhou Yucheng nodded: "However, this case is not solved yet. The motive, process, methods and other information have not yet been ascertained. Wang Wu's body is not injured, there are only two ghost claw marks. How can this matter be solved?"
Xu Taiping held up his hand and said, "Sir, the ghost claw marks may seem scary, but they are actually not worth mentioning."
"oh?"
"Experienced workers should know that when a person dies, the blood stops flowing, and the appearance looks normal, but the inside has begun to decay. At this time, if you slap, scratch, and pinch the deceased's limbs, after a while, the corresponding parts will be squeezed by the blood. It cannot flow back and forms blue-black patches."
The county government official quickly stepped forward and nodded: "Sir, this is indeed the case."
Xu Taiping continued: "Most people don't know this, but Zhao Sanlang is different. His father used to be a corpse carrier in Yizhuang, so he probably knew about this. He only needed to grab Wang Wu's wrists with both hands after killing Wang Wu. You can create a pair of ghost paw prints that are enough to scare people."
Zhou Yucheng asked again: "But there was no external injury to Wang Wu's body, and he was not poisoned in the test. How did Zhao Sanlang kill him?"
Xu Taiping responded cooperatively: "Sir, there are many methods. Strong alcohol, sweat medicine, and even charcoal can make Wang Wu unconscious and at the mercy of others."
"What about the motive?"
"My subordinates believe that murder cases between ordinary people and ordinary people are nothing more than money and adultery. Wang Wu and Zhao Sanlang have a very good relationship, and they are both from poor families, so it should not be caused by money."
When Xu Taiping said this, his eyes fell on Zhao Sanlang's wife Zhao Liu.
Sighing: "Although the Zhao Liu family is not stunningly beautiful, among the people, she is already as beautiful as Xiao Jiayu, but Zhao Sanlang is short and ugly..."
At this time.
Zhao Sanlang suddenly shouted: "Stop talking——"
Zhao Sanlang collapsed directly under Xu Taiping's verbal attack.
First he yelled angrily.
Then the whimpering started.
Finally, he lay on the ground and cried loudly.
Mrs. Zhao Liu also cried non-stop.
Xu Taiping shook his head.
Ask again.
The couple did it all.
The process was almost exactly the same as his deduction.
Wang Wu colluded with Zhao Liu and became an adulterer.
After Zhao Sanlang found out, he held a grudge and had the intention to kill, but he was worried that he would not be the opponent of Wang Wu.
So he threatened his wife and ordered her to ask Wang Wu for a secret meeting outside the city.
When Wang Wu happily went to the appointment, Zhao Liu fed Wang Wu some strong wine mixed with Mongolian sweat medicine.
Wait until Wang Wu is unconscious.
Zhao Sanlang dragged Wang Wu into the water and drowned him, then forged ghost paw prints and threw his body into the moat.
However, they were worried that the secret would be exposed when the government investigated, because the couple were very close to Wang Wu's family and were the first to be investigated.
Therefore, Zhao Sanlang did the opposite, deliberately surrendered and fabricated a highly misleading confession.
There are really demons and ghosts in this world, and it is common for ghosts to harm people.
Therefore, that pair of ghost paw prints with great visual impact led everyone astray, including the former head catcher Wang Minghu.
pity.
I met Xu Taiping, who was very clever and used cheats.
Otherwise, Zhao Sanlang could really succeed.
Xu Taiping completed his analysis.
The case was reviewed again, recorded again, and handed over to the county magistrate.
After reading it, Zhou Yucheng pronounced the verdict directly.
"Zhao Sanlang, guilty of murder, should be beheaded. There is a reason for thinking, and he is sentenced to exile in Shuzhou and serve for life.
"Mr. Zhao Liu is guilty of murder and rape, which is the cause of this case. She is punished for both crimes and is sentenced to be beheaded. After the fall, she will be beheaded and she will not be pardoned.
"Come here, put the criminal in jail, report to the Ministry of Punishment for approval, and wait for the day to execute the sentence."
The words fell.
He took out the gleaming bronze official seal and smashed it heavily on the files and judgments.
On the seal, there is a faint golden light flowing through it.
And the water ghost murder case that caused panic among people was completely solved at this moment.
The county government office was the first to erupt.
The yamen servants, police officers, prison guards, and other petty officials discussed the matter very enthusiastically.
The way he looked at Xu Taiping was also different from before.
The praises are endless.
Xu Taiping was already immersed in the joy of solving the case.
At the moment when the county magistrate was sealed.
A vague aura fell from the sky, fell into the depths of his sea of consciousness, and was completely absorbed by the bamboo book.
The layer of misty white light on the surface of the bamboo book, like mutton-fat jade, was brighter than before.
at the same time.
The bamboo book unfolded slightly, and one-third of the fourth bamboo slip was exposed.
Judging from the exposed third of the text.
The fourth magical power turned out to be "cutting through the mess with a sharp knife".
Good.
Offensive supernatural powers.
It can maximize my self-protection ability.
As for the misty aura falling from the sky...
Xu Taiping also seemed to have some realization.
Dynasty luck?
I solve crimes.
Reward feedback sent from heaven to improve my abilities.
A virtuous cycle.
From now on, as long as you concentrate on solving crimes, you will have the opportunity to become the best in the world.
Isn’t this better than practicing hard?
Practicing hard is not only a waste of resources, but also tiring, and there is a risk of going crazy.
This plug-in.
awesome!
Solve the case!
Take the time to solve the case!
Try to unlock more magical powers as soon as possible and increase the power of the Bamboo Book.
Force and power must always be grasped.
Otherwise, you will always be a little ant at the mercy of others.
At this time.
County Magistrate Zhou Yucheng coughed.
The whole place fell silent for a moment.
Everyone looked at Zhou Yucheng, waiting for Zhou Yucheng to speak.
