Start by scolding the empress

Chapter 232
Fang Xuan watched the county magistrate leave, and turned to look at Chen Yi with worry in his eyes.

"Do you want to take care of this matter? This matter is not small, and it won't be resolved in a short while. Are you worried that you will offend others when you put your eyes on yourself?"

Chen Yi looked at Fang Xuan with some surprises: "Why would the master say that? I thought the master would support my decision very much. After all, this can be regarded as helping me when I see injustice!"

Fang Xuan blew his beard and stared, nodded Chen Yi's head with his hand, and said in a mid-spirited voice.

"You kid, don't be eccentric with me. I'm from the Jianghu, but not all the people from the Jianghu are fools. They care about everything. Who would like to participate in lifeless matters? Let me tell you, just like you, I haven't been in the Jianghu for a few days. I'm dead! Hmph!"

Chen Yi hurriedly laughed: "Yes, yes, what the master said is that the apprentice has been educated, but I really can't do anything about it. Who let us meet? If such a cruel person becomes the county magistrate, the common people will die." What a disaster!"

Fang Xuan still didn't give Chen Yi a good look.

"How do you know that this kid hasn't lied to you again? Maybe he is the villain who sued first."

Regarding this point, Chen Yi did not refute but nodded.

"That's right, so I don't fully believe what he said. I still have to investigate to find out!"

Chen Yi followed Fang Xuan's words, seeing that you knew what was in your heart, Fang Xuan was relieved, and walked towards the door with a tired face: "You know, as long as you know, I'm going to rest, you should rest early too! Everything will be discussed tomorrow .”

After Fang Xuan finished speaking, he left and went back to his room to rest.

Chen Yi smiled, he didn't doubt what the county magistrate said, after all, the task content had already told him the answer.

Now Chen Yi has figured out some routines of the system, so he can analyze some useful clues from the mission content, which is another kind of spoiler.

It is much easier for Chen Yi to complete the task. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to quickly grasp this information by himself.

The careful county magistrate he asked just now had already told him who the murderer was.

By the way, I also blasted out the background of the murderer, and the next step is to find evidence.

The answer to the mystery is solved, and the reverse derivation is very simple.

After Chen Yi cleaned up, he lay on the bed, thought through everything he needed to do tomorrow, and fell asleep.

When he got up the next day, after breakfast, he told the people accompanying him that he would stay for a while again, and then went out to find the county magistrate. When he arrived at the county government office, he found that the county magistrate had been waiting for him early.

After Chen Yi nodded and greeted him, he asked the magistrate to sit down and talk to him to understand the case. He only knew the whole story yesterday, but now he needs to find evidence, which is naturally different.

"Did you do an autopsy? Show me the file."

The county magistrate immediately stood up and handed the prepared information to Chen Yi: "He did an autopsy, but he had already been bribed. He just said that he was injured by a sword and it was a homicide."

Chen Yi nodded, and looked at the case file. As expected, just like the county magistrate said, the autopsy did not provide any useful information.

Now they know that the county lieutenant did it, but they don't know whether he did it himself or paid for the murder. The key is to find clues in the corpse.

"Besides this gangster, are there any other gangsters here who have not been bribed?"

The county magistrate shook his head and explained: "My lord, our place is small, and we don't encounter such major murder cases a few times a year, so there is only one assistant, and the others are from Lin County, but No one wants to offend anyone."

Chen Yi sighed, it seemed that it would not be easy to complete this task.

Nowadays, he has no one he can use. Besides Fang Xuan, those who came with him are those who escorted the grain and grass.

But these people can't move, Chen Yi can only talk to the county magistrate in front of him.

"Do you have anyone you can trust here? Give me two to run errands with."

Chen Yi asked directly.

The county magistrate nodded, got up and went outside to bring back two people. Chen Yi looked at the clothes of the two, and it seemed that they should be arresters from the yamen. Sure enough, the county magistrate introduced them.

"My lord, these two are trustworthy people. This Zhang Butou is my elder brother from the same clan, and this Li Butou is my brother-in-law. They came here by their own ability and can be used by your lord."

Chen Yi nodded with satisfaction, and then asked the headman Zhang directly: "How much do you know about the murder of the county magistrate?"

After Zhang Butou heard about it, he looked at the county magistrate in surprise. He didn't expect that Chen Shilang would ask this matter as soon as he came, and at the same time he understood why the county magistrate asked him to come to assist Chen Yi.

"Back to Chen Shilang, my subordinates have heard about these things, but they don't know much about the specific things."

After Zhang Butou finished speaking, he glanced at the county magistrate, which seemed to mean that because of the county magistrate, he was also targeted.

Chen Yi nodded, and looked at Li Butou next to him without saying anything: "Do you know the nearest better forensic work in Lin County? Send someone over to re-examine the autopsy. This matter is done in a more secretive way. Can the county magistrate rule out the suspicion?"

Li Butou glanced at the county magistrate, then at Zhang Butou, and replied in a low voice: "Back to Chen Shilang, the Wu Zuo I know again is from Caitou County, Lin County. I worked with him before and broke up together. case."

A look of joy appeared on Chen Yi's face.

"Okay, just quietly go and invite people over there. Remember that it must be done secretly and as soon as possible. Go now. If someone asks, you can just say something special about Lin County, and say It’s what I’m going to take with me before I leave.”

Catcher Li nodded and went out.

Zhang Butou was a little older, and seeing that he had no idea about the task Chen Yi had arranged before, he was a little uneasy at this moment.

Chen Yi comforted him: "Don't be nervous, the errands are left to the young man, you follow me to see the county magistrate's body, it is not buried now, find a few people to watch over, don't be ruined by others."

Zhang Butou nodded immediately: "Don't worry, my lord, I will arrange it right away."

Chen Yi nodded in agreement, and said, "Come to me when things are done, I have other things to arrange for you."

Zhang Butou saluted and went out.

Chen Yi frowned at the county magistrate, lowered his head in thought, what is needed now is the evidence that the county magistrate killed the county magistrate, in addition to the autopsy, he also needs to find the murder weapon.

Since the county lieutenant disguised the scene as the Heaven's Punishment Hero, naturally there would be no murder weapon at the scene.

It seems that I still have to go to the scene to see it, Chen Yi thought.

At the same time, he sighed in his heart. He had never handled a case before. It was all the police's business before. He was just a commoner. He never thought that he would be given this opportunity here.
