Are we going to investigate this case
After temporarily locking the focus of suspicion on the Wei family, Sun Shaozong was in trouble.
There is a saying that pulls out the radish and brings out the mud. If the Wei family kills the old lady in order to cover up the truth, once he comes forward to investigate the case thoroughly, the matter of the three people's conspiracy to save the child may also be exposed.
You know, this is the crime of deceiving the king!
Just as he was struggling, he saw a few people hurriedly approaching from the rain curtain. The first one hurried a few steps to the corridor, bowed and said, "Mr. Qi, Mr. Zhizhong, Wang's husband Liu Changsheng, eldest son Liu Fugui, and daughter Liu Huilan, have already brought them here. ."
It turned out that Mrs. Wang's family had arrived.
Sun Shaozong swept his eyes to the back, and saw a simple and honest middle-aged man, leading a pair of children, each curled up in a bucket hat, his lowered head occasionally raised secretly, his eyes mixed with panic and anticipation.
Originally, Sun Shaozong was already inclined to give up the case, but when he met these six fearful but hopeful eyes, his heart softened again.
never mind.
Let's ask the specific situation first.
"Come inside."
After explaining, Sun Shaozong carefully entered the living room, sat down behind the koan in the center, and waited for about half an hour before he saw the Wang family, who had lost their rain gear, walked in under the leadership of Lin Delu.
"I haven't seen Master Zhizhong yet."
Lin Delu reminded, the father and son immediately knelt on their knees, kowtow like garlic, full of 'Master Qingtian'.
Sun Shaozong threw the file on the table and asked indifferently, "Liu Changsheng, according to the confession, you once told the official that there was nothing unusual about your wife Wang's disappearance, but the truth?"
Liu Changsheng hurriedly put his body down again and said excitedly: "If you go back to Master Qingtian, my mother-in-law was very good before, and she said that she would cut half a catty of dog meat and come back, and put a piece of autumn fat on her son, who knows. After she left... it took several days for her to leave, but she didn't see anyone alive or dead!"
As he spoke, Liu Changsheng's voice was a little whimpering, and the next pair of children also sobbed after hearing it.
Seeing that the family of three were about to burst into tears, Sun Shaozong hurriedly said: "This official is just to find out the traces of Wang's family, so I want to ask you some inside information. You father and son don't need to panic, just talk slowly."
As he said that, Lin Delu gave a wink, and Lin Delu immediately said in a sullen manner: "Liu Changsheng, Master Sun has personally interrogated this case, why are you crying? If you want to see your mother-in-law, answer honestly! "
This one sings the red face and the other sings the white face, Liu Changsheng is a mere peasant, how can he stand it
Busily wiping away tears with his sleeves, he kowtowed: "The villain is guilty, the villain is guilty, but Master Qingtian just asks, the villain must know everything!"
"Okay, let me ask you, in the past two months, has your wife ever delivered a baby to a big family?"
"Never!"
Without even thinking about it, Liu Changsheng shook his head and said, "For the past two months, my neighbors have asked her to deliver the baby, but I have never been to any big family."
Hearing this, Sun Shaozong suddenly became suspicious. Although he was a husband and wife, it involved Wang's behavior in the past two months. It stands to reason that Liu Changsheng should recall first and then answer his own question. It was blurted out, without the slightest hesitation.
Either, he knew everything about the Wang family; or, he had already arranged the answer in his heart!
Sun Shaozong still asked indifferently: "You are so sure that you must have a clear record of which family Wang's went to deliver her birth?"
"No no no!"
However, Liu Changsheng shook his head and said, "The villain seldom asks about such matters, it's all what my mother-in-law said—she said that since she delivered the enchanting, the big families around here have been taboo and would rather travel from afar. Please come to other stable mothers, and they will not ask her to deliver the baby!"
"That's why I said that she has not taken over business from a big family recently."
Sun Shaozong originally wanted to ask a few questions first, and then gradually transition to the main topic, but Liu Changsheng took the initiative to mention it.
Therefore, Sun Shaozong also followed the flow and asked: "What? The Wang family once told you about the birth of the demon on the day when the dog swallowed the sun?"
"I've said it a few times..."
"Then repeat to this officer what she said."
Sun Shaozong said, and then raised his voice: "Lin Delu, take these two young people outside first."
Lin Delu knew that he was worried about the Liu family's father and son collusion. Although he didn't understand what Sun Shaozong had experienced personally, and asked the Liu family's father and son what was the point, he still obediently took Liu Fugui and Liu Huilan outside.
Because it was raining heavily outside, there was no need to hide far, just order their brother and sister to wait under the porch.
When Lin Delu returned to the hall, Liu Changsheng was under the guidance of Sun Shaozong, repeating his wife's words while recalling.
Lin Delu listened for a long time, except for the blue-faced fangs that the child said, and the great monks wearing Buddha-light body protection, there is nothing new or strange.
On the other hand, Sun Shaozong was serious, and repeatedly asked many details, such as Wang's tone at the time, or whether there was any pause or stumbling.
It was not until Lin Delu was about to memorize that set of rhetoric that Sun Shaozong let go of Liu Changsheng, and then called Liu Fugui and his siblings in, and asked them to repeat Wang's remarks in the same way.
The two brothers and sisters were far less courageous than his father, and they stumbled and stumbled when speaking. The time it took to speak once was enough to surpass Liu Changsheng more than three times!
I just heard that Lin Delu wanted to pull their tongues out, and ironed them straight first.
However, Sun Shaozong was extremely patient. After listening, he asked the brother and sister the question that he had just asked Liu Changsheng. By the time the two had answered the question, the rain outside had stopped.
Seeing a red sun breaking out of the clouds, Sun Shaozong's heart also disappeared for most of the haze.
Although it is not completely certain at the moment, according to the confessions of the father and son, the disappearance of Mrs. Wang should have nothing to do with the Wei family.
The content of their father and son's recitation is roughly the same, and some details that are not easy to fabricate can also be matched, so it can basically be concluded that these words are indeed from Wang's mouth.
And these words are coherent, and there is nothing missing from the sound.
The three of them unanimously stated that in the process of telling these things, Wang has always been eloquent and vivid, and there was no stumbling in the middle.
Sun Shaozong reluctantly believed that Mrs Wang could hide her secrets in front of her family, but it would be unbelievable to say that she spoke eloquently about what happened that day, but her words were still tight.
Besides, if she had such a scheming, she wouldn't end up in a situation where no one was alive or dead!
But if she wasn't killed, why did she disappear
"Lindelok."
"I'm humble."
"Pass my orders, this case will be led by Zhao Wuwei personally to investigate, don't miss any possible clues!"
It has actually been five or six days since the case was reported, but there has been little progress before.
This is mainly because the people who are in charge of investigating the case are only two ordinary yamen and a few white servants - after all, although this disappearance case is also a matter of life, it is far less important than the murder case.
The manpower is insufficient, and the attitude of handling the case is not correct. What clues can be found out
Now that Sun Shaozong gave an order, the manpower resources in the mansion suddenly tilted over - Zhao Wuwei took dozens of subordinates and almost trampled the road from Wang's family to the vegetable market.
Residents and buyers and sellers on both sides of the road, whether suspected or not, have been questioned at least twice one by one. Under this carpet-like search, some relevant information soon surfaced.
The first is Zhao Mazi of the Sugar Blowing Man. He said that he once saw two people wearing bucket hats adorning Wang's far behind.
Then Xu Erniu, who bought Yangchun noodles, said that she had seen two people with bucket hats, but she did not know that they were following Wang.
Then came the nine-year-old son of Qian Lao Lin's family in Xixiang, who said that when he was playing with his native dog Ah Huang on the street, Ah Huang suddenly chased two people wearing hats and barked, and one of them stopped and cursed. After a few sentences, it doesn't sound like a local accent.
In addition, according to Qian Laolui's confession, his local dog is very human, and he has always been outside, and has never caused trouble to the neighbors. This is the first time he is chasing people and barking.
"A foreigner with a hat?"
Hearing these reports, Lin Delu licked Yahuazi as a question: "Sir, this sounds like a group of human traffickers, if the old lady was really photographed by them, I'm afraid they would have been sent out of the city early after a few days of hard work. "
"Human traffickers?"
Sun Shaozong rolled his eyes at him: "If you were a human trafficker, would you choose the Wang family?"
Without waiting for Lin Delu to reply, he raised his hand and said, "Go, send someone to bring Qian Laoluo's son and his local dog here."
Lin Delu was already used to the strange behaviors of Sun Shaozong when he solved the case, so he didn't ask any further questions, and was ready to go out to convey orders.
"return!"
However, Sun Shaozong stopped him again and ordered: "Go to inform Zhou Da and let him pick a few prisoners from the prison..."
The book does not go into details.
But it was said that after about two quarters of an hour, Qian Laoluo's son and the yellow dog were taken to the Department of Criminalization and Mingming, followed by the anxious Qian Laoluo and his wife.
As soon as they saw Sun Shaozong's light red official robe, the two husband and wife fell to their knees with a thud. It was the child named A Bao, who was so arrogant that he was pushed to the ground by his father, and he was still leaning up. Head to look at Sun Shaozong.
Sun Shaozong showed him a genial smile, then pointed to the yellow dog who was shaking his head and waving his tail, and said, "Is this Ah Huang who chased the bad guys all the way? Sure enough, he is a good dog!"
Hearing Sun Shaozong compliment his pet and saying that Ah Huang was chasing two bad guys, Ah Bao suddenly became proud and said with a small chest, "I've been chasing them too, the way they swear is scary, but I And Ah Huang is not afraid at all!"
"So, you're also a brave and good boy."
Sun Shaozong stretched out his hand to pull A Bao up from the ground, rubbed his hand-piercing hair, and said with a smile, "When uncle asks you and A Huang for help later, you can't have stage fright."
A Bao raised his head and said with joy: "Do you want me and A Huang to help you catch the bad guys?!"
Although this child is a newborn calf and is not afraid of tigers, he already has the concept of honor and inferiority, so he did not follow the pole and call Sun Shaozong uncle.
"Haha, I was really told by the little hero."
Sun Shaozong laughed. Seeing that Qian Laoluo and his wife were terrified, they stopped talking.
Saying that, he gave Lin Delu a color.
Lin Delu immediately raised his hand to greet the East Cross Courtyard: "Come on, let those guys come over one by one!"
I heard the sound of iron chains behind the Moon Gate. Not long after that, a prisoner wearing a prison uniform and a hat came out slowly from the inside. He was originally dissatisfied, but when he saw Sun Shaozong present, his waist collapsed. He stooped and walked over step by step.
Not far in front of everyone in the Qian family, he suddenly stopped, turned around and scolded a few words in anger or panic, and then lowered his head and walked forward.
He went all the way to the base of the western wall, only then did the yamen step up to stop him.
"How about it?"
Sun Shaozong squatted beside A Bao and asked, "Does this person look like the bad guy who wore a hat that day?"
"Not at all, not at all!"
Bao immediately shook his head like a rattle.
At this time, behind the Moon Gate, a second prisoner walked out. This prisoner had a face full of bad luck as soon as he came out. Because he didn't know who had poured a lot of leftovers on him, and he was dripping all the way. Yes, it's really indescribable embarrassment.
This time, before he could get closer, the local dog Ah Huang bit his tail and greeted him. He barked cheerfully twice, and then lowered his head to add the food on his trouser legs.
The prisoner was a little nervous at first, seeing that Ah Huang did not mean to hurt anyone, then he gritted his teeth and continued to move forward.
Sun Shaozong asked again, "Did Ah Huang chase after him that day?"
"no no!"
Bao shook his head like a rattle again: "Huang's scream was much more powerful than this that day!"
At this time, the prisoner also approached, stopped and turned his head, cursing weakly.
"This accent..."
"Not like, not like, not like the one just now!"
After the prisoner who had contributed a lot of mess came to the root of the west wall, the third prisoner did not rush out, but grabbed a few yamen from behind the door.
After the yamen officers cleaned up the traces on the ground, it was the third prisoner's turn to appear.
There was nothing special about this man, but he looked very nervous. He kept staring at Ah Huang. When he got closer, seeing that there was no reaction from Ah Huang, he breathed a sigh of relief. a few words.
"almost!"
Without waiting for Sun Shaozong to ask again, A Bao jumped and said, "He and those two bad guys in bucket hats seem to be scolding the same!"
But then, the child wondered again: "But why doesn't Ah Huang chase him?"
Sun Shaozong smiled and did not explain anything.
When the third prisoner walked under the west wall, the fourth prisoner came out immediately. The prisoner looked at it and was a little more cautious than the one who just walked away.
But this time Ah Huang had a reaction. He first tilted his nose and sniffed, then lowered his body and barked wildly. When the prisoner bit his head, turned his head and scolded a few words, and continued to walk towards the west wall, Ah Huang It was followed by barking all the way.
