In the early morning of the next day, the clouds were overcast!
Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang had just had breakfast. Tang Zhun came to Di Renjie’s room and saw Di Renjie hurriedly said: "Mr. Huai, I heard that the corpse thief was caught last night, and it is really rude that Mr. Huai failed to rest well. !"
Di Renjie smiled, and said: "Young Master Tang is too worried, can everyone really have a good rest after catching the corpse thief?"
"By the way, Mr. Huai, I just heard that Lu Bo said that he would take Zhao Liu to find the corpse. Would you like to see it?" Tang Zhun said!
"Go, of course I want to go!" Di Renjie said!
"Okay! Then there is Mr. Lao Huai!" Tang Zhun got up and said salute!
Di Renjie smiled and took Li Yuanfang and Tang Zhun to the backyard of the villa!
The three of them came to the backyard and saw that Tang Yinran and the housekeeper Tang Lu were already by the dry well. Zhao Liu knelt by the side with some injuries on his face. It seemed that the housekeeper Tang Lu had made him suffer!
Under the recommendation, the book-chasing app I am using recently can cache and read books and read aloud offline!
A wooden shelf was placed in the dry well, and pulleys and ropes were installed!
"Oh, Mr. Huai!" Seeing Di Renjie coming, Tang Yinran quickly bowed his hands to salute!
"Huaimou has seen Master Tang!" Di Renjie replied in return!
"Last night, Mr. Huai asked the villain to confess truthfully in a few words. It is truly amazing. It is really regrettable to not be able to witness Mr. Huai's demeanor at that time!" Tang Yinran complimented!
"Master Tang is absurdly praised, and Huaimou dare not be ashamed, but it's just a momentary trick, a mistake and a collision!" Di Renjie said modestly!
"Master Qi, you are all ready! You can go down!" A Zhuang Ding reported!
Tang Yinran nodded and did not speak, but the butler Tang Lu said quickly: "Okay! Pull the body up right away when you're ready!"
A Zhuang Ding heard the order and used the rope to descend into the dry well. After a while, there was a good call from the well. Zhuang Ding at the side of the well pulled the rope together and pulled the corpse out of the well!
Di Renjie looked at the body that was pulled up. It was indeed the one found in the lotus pond that night!
Seeing that the corpse had already reappeared, the butler Tang Lu folded his hands and asked: "Master, the corpse has been found, what should I do next?"
Tang Yinran clutched his nose and said disgustedly: "Since the corpse is found, immediately send it to the prefectural government office, and this villain Zhao Liu will be arrested to see the officer!"
"Yes!" Tang Lu, the butler, responded!
"Wait!" Di Renjie suddenly stopped drinking!
"Mr. Huai, what are you?" Tang Zhun asked from the side!
"Zhao Liu, look at this corpse but Meng Dahu?" Di Renjie asked!
Zhao Liu was already limp all over, lying on the ground, hearing Di Renjie's question, slowly raised his head!
"Hey? No!" Zhao Liu suddenly became energetic, because he didn't even recognize the corpse in front of him!
"What's wrong? Could it be that you want to reverse the confession?" Butler Tang Lu asked sharply!
"He, he, he is not Meng Dahu!" Zhao Liu said tremblingly!
"What? He is not Meng Dahu?" Butler Tang Lu asked in surprise!
"Steward Tang, this person is indeed not Meng Dahu!" Di Renjie said suddenly!
"Mr. Huai, what the hell is going on?" Tang Zhun asked puzzledly!
"When Zhao Liu confessed that he passed by, I knew that the corpse in this dry well was not Meng Dahu, because Zhao Liu said that Meng Dahu was strangled to death by him, but after my examination, this corpse died of poisoning! I! Thinking that things should be like this, a corpse was found in the lotus pond. After Zhao Liu heard about this, he was worried that his crime would be exposed, so Kuiye stole the corpse. After stealing the corpse, he threw the corpse into this dry well in the dark, because It's the dark night. Zhao Liu didn't dare to use torch lanterns to illuminate him, so Zhao Liu had never observed the corpse from beginning to end. He thought this was Meng Dahu who was strangled to death by him! Zhao Liu, am I right?" Di Renjie turned around and asked Zhao Liu!
Zhao Liu nodded tremblingly, and said, "Yes! I was also scared at the time, afraid of being discovered, so I didn't look carefully, so I threw the body directly into the well with my back!"
"Then there should be a corpse?" Tang Zhun asked in surprise!
Di Renjie nodded and said, "Well! That's right, I think the other corpse should be still in the lotus pond at this time! Lord Tang can find two well-watered villagers to dive into the lotus pond, and he should be able to find it. A corpse!"
"Lu Bo, just as Mr. Huai said, let people go into the water quickly. If there is a corpse hidden in the lotus pond, how can people enjoy the flowers and play in the water?" Tang Zhun said quickly!
"Yes! Master, I'll make arrangements right away!" Tang Lu, the butler, responded!
The group of people came to the lotus pond again. Tang Lu, the housekeeper, found two of the best water-based villagers on the village and jumped into the water. The two took a long breath and dived into the water!
After a while, the two came out again, and one of them reported: "Master, there is indeed a corpse underwater with a stone tied to his body!"
"Get it up, get it up!" Tang Yinran's face was momentarily angry, and he urged again and again!
With the combined efforts of several Zhuang Ding, the corpse in the lotus pond was also pulled up!
With the corpse before
The body was different. The corpse opened its mouth and tongue, and its head and face swelled. Because it was soaked in water for a long time, the whole body was no longer bloody, the abdomen was swollen, and the skin and flesh appeared to be peeling, giving off this stench!
Di Renjie stepped forward to check and saw that there were a few obvious scratches on the corpse's neck, the color was blue and black, and it was indeed strangled to death by someone's neck!
"Steward Tang, bring Zhao Liu to identify!" Di Renjie said!
"Okay! Come here, bring Zhao Liu here!" Tang Lu, the butler, ordered!
Not much time, Zhao Liu was dragged over by Zhuang Ding like a dead dog!
"Zhao Liu, see if this is Meng Dahu?" Butler Tang Lu said sharply!
Zhao Liu was already indisputable. He raised his head slightly and glanced at the body, then he dared not look again, and slowly nodded his head!
"Steward Tang, since the facts are clear, let's send the two corpses and the murderer Zhao Liuyi to see the official!" Tang Yinran said!
"Yes!"
The housekeeper Tang Lu responded with a wave of his hand. Several Zhuang Ding came over and carried away the corpse, escorted Zhao Liu, and went straight to the prefecture under the leadership of the housekeeper Tang Lu!
"Mr. Huai, are you really an eye-opener for Zaixia? Thanks to your presence, otherwise I don't know how long this corpse will stay in the lotus pond of our Xilin Villa!" Tang Yinran said gratefully!
Di Renjie hurriedly responded with a smile and said with a smile: "Master Tang is so praising that he really didn't dare to be pregnant. This Xilin Mountain Villa is so outstanding that he has nowhere to hide. This makes this murder case uncovered in the world. It is not the merit of Huai."
"Hahaha! Mr. Huai is too self-effacing, today I hosted a banquet in my village to entertain Mr. Huai, and I hope that Mr. Huai will appreciate it!" Tang Yinran laughed!
"Okay! Then it's better to be respectful than Huaimou!" Di Renjie said with a smile and salute!
"Well, I also hope that Mr. Huai can stay in my village for a few more days. Although my son has read some books, it is still inferior to Mr. Huai. I hope that Mr. Huai can give my son some guidance. My son will get a fame as soon as possible, so it's better to be a ancestor!" Tang Yinran said respectfully!
Di Renjie twisted the beard and said with a smile: "Young Master Tang is gifted and born with a talent, and he must be a pillar of the country in the future. I can't talk about it, but I am willing to communicate with Young Master Tang!"
"That's great! I want to ask Mr. Huai for advice in the next morning! Mr. is here, please be respected by Tang Zhun!" Tang Zhun bends over and salutes excitedly!
Di Renjie hurriedly helped Tang Zhun and smiled and said, "Why don't you bear such a gift from Young Master Tang?"
By the lotus pond, a cloud of clouds disappeared, and there was endless talk and laughter!
