I am the best in the world with the crime solving system

Wang Da also took a few steps forward, stood beside the two of them, looked at the direction they were looking at, and said, "The gap between the green bamboos is wider than the other one!"

Chen Chaoyan had already noticed it, but after hearing what he said, she still made a habitual comparison with other places.The place Ma Huai walked through was a bit wider than other places.Although it is only a few points wider, walking sideways can completely avoid touching the green bamboo.And no matter how you pass in other places, you have to stick to the green bamboo to pass.

"Ma Huai, go in and lift the bamboo leaves to see if the bamboo shoots have been cleaned up," Wang Da ordered.

Ma Huai climbed over the wall obediently, kicked away the thick bamboo leaves, looked left and right, and said, "No."

"That's strange." Wang Da said, "Everywhere else grows densely, but in this one place, it looks like a Taoist gate has been left on purpose."

Chen Chaoyan looked at the soft ground exposed after the bamboo leaves were lifted, and said casually: "Zhou Zhongcai placed the study here, although it is convenient for contacting people, it does not mean that they will meet every time at Zhou's house."

Wang Da nodded, "That's the only way to explain it. It's just that if they don't meet at Zhou's house every time, it will be troublesome to find out."

"Go to Zhou's house and have a look." Chen Chaoyan said.

After the investigation started, Chen Chaoyan would visit Zhou's house every now and then, trying to find new clues.At the beginning, Mrs. Zhou would greet her and ask her about the progress of the investigation.In recent times, she didn't like to come out very much.Chen Chaoyan knew that she had no hope of solving the case.

But today it was uncharacteristically, just as Chen Chaoyan entered the gate of Zhou's house, Mrs. Zhou supported her mother-in-law and rushed out to welcome her.Xie Xuan, Feng Shoudao, Wang Da and others were all there, but she only had Chen Chaoyan in her eyes.He hurriedly walked up to Chen Chaoyan, before he could utter a word, tears flowed down his face, "Miss Chen, is the murderer of my husband-in-law Mr. Song?"

After Chen Chaoyan sighed secretly, he shook his head and said, "No."

Mrs. Zhou held on to her mother-in-law's hand tightly, and said with tears in her eyes: "Then why, why was he imprisoned in the North Prison?"

Chen Chaoyan didn't know how to explain it to her, so she could only say: "Sir Song is indeed suspicious, but there is no evidence to prove that he is the murderer. So we came here this time just to..."

"The concubine has evidence!" Mrs. Zhou let go of her hand and pushed the old lady, "Hurry up, hurry up and take out the account book in my room to Miss Chen!"

Seeing the back of the mother-in-law leaving in a hurry, Chen Chaoyan's eyes moved slightly: "Account book?"

"Yes, the account book." Mrs. Zhou took out the silk handkerchief around her waist, wiped her tears twice, and said, "When my husband was still there, every time I came back from my errands, I would give half of the seized property to Mr. Song. I'm afraid If something happens in the future, Mr. Song refuses to admit it, so every time he gives it to Mr. Song, he will first record the half of the property distributed in the account book. However, there were several times before Xianggong had an accident, because the property returned was not much, so there was no distribution. To Mr. Song. Mr. Song must have held grudges against Mr. Xianggong because of this, so he killed Mr. Song!"

As he spoke, he burst into sobs again.

"Since there is an account book, why didn't you mention it earlier!" Wang Da asked angrily.

Mrs. Zhou focused all her attention on whether Song Yanzhong was the murderer of her husband. When she heard Wang Da's voice, she saw that Chen Chaoyan was accompanied by other people.He was so startled that he took a few steps back and stopped after reaching the screen wall.After looking at Wang Da in surprise and fear, he hurriedly explained: "Earlier, I was immersed in the grief of my husband's murder, so I didn't think of it for a while. Yesterday I heard the neighbors talking about Mr. Song being imprisoned in the north. Prison, probably after the murderer who killed my husband, I suddenly remembered."

Just as he was talking, the mother-in-law also brought back the account book.

Yue Jian stepped forward to take the account book, flipped through it twice quickly, and after confirming that there was no problem, turned around and handed it to Chen Chaoyan.

When Chen Chaoyan was flipping through the account book, Wang Dawei asked calmly, "Apart from this account book, is there any other evidence?"

Mrs. Zhou shook her head again and again.

The account book is very thick, and the content recorded is one of Song Yanzhong's pawns in Yingou Cabinet Workshop.Chen Chaoyan glanced at it casually, then handed it to Feng Shoudao whose complexion was so dark that he could squeeze out ink.

Feng Shoudao held the account book like he was holding a huge boulder, which was so heavy that he could hardly stand still.After shaking off Zhao Wuwei's helping hand, and taking two deep breaths, he opened the account book.Turning over slowly one page after another, looking at the year and month and the origin of the things recorded in the account book page after page, his breathing also gradually became short of breath.

Seeing this, Chen Chaoyan didn't want to disturb him.

After appeasing Mrs. Zhou, he went to the bamboo forest outside the study and came back. Seeing that Feng Shoudao was still in the previous posture and barely moved, he was wondering if he wanted to comfort him, so Feng Shoudao raised his head first, with a look of He shouted with grief and sorrow: "I am ashamed of my trust in the emperor!"

As soon as the words fell, hot tears rolled out immediately.

Chen Chaoyan's heart was surging, and she turned her head to look at Xie Xuan.

Xie Xuan glanced at her, and said sneeringly: "Why, just two innocuous words scare you?"

His voice is not low.

Not only Chen Chaoyan heard it, but everyone else heard it too.

But Feng Shoudao was not embarrassed, he bowed his hands and said to him: "I am guilty, I will go back to the government office to deal with it!"

After the words fell, she shed another hot tear, and walked away with resolute and heavy steps.

Xie Xuan snorted and followed suit.

Speechless all the way.

until……

The carriage was stopped by layers of people in front of the Sheriff's Mansion.

The sound of cursing and crying was like a raging sea wave, making people's ears numb.After Yue Jian raised the curtain of the carriage and listened carefully for a while, he and Ling You, who was guarding the carriage, said almost at the same time: "They are all here to denounce Song Yanzhong."

It is not suitable for such an occasion, and it is not suitable for such a group of people.Chen Chaoyan looked at Xie Xuan again, waiting for him to make up his mind.

Xie Xuan took a look at the gap between the curtains of the car raised by Yuejian, and said gloatingly: "It is enough to have Mr. Feng here, let's go back."

When the carriage passed by the people blocking the way, Chen Chaoyan saw that Feng Shoudao was surrounded by the crowd and was doing soothing work at the top of his voice.Looking at the flow of people on the three floors inside and outside the three floors is not enough to describe, I am afraid that there is no way to end it before midnight.

The carriage entered the Sheriff's Mansion and gradually left the noise behind.When he stopped in front of the house, he could not hear the sound at all.

Xie Xuan got out of the carriage first, and went back to Muyuan Hall without waiting for Chen Chaoyan.

Two days ago, Chen Chaoyan heard from Yuejian that he went to bed early recently, so he didn't go to Muyuantang again.After taking a brief look at the direction he left, and then looking back at the gate of the Sheriff's Mansion, he went to Liyuan.After checking Chen Qiyang's study progress in Liyuan, he returned to Zhaixing Building.

More than two hundred people came to the prefect's mansion to sue Song Yanzhong.

After appeasing their anger and registering one by one, the sky is almost dawn.At the entrance of the lobby, seeing off the last person, Feng Shoudao looked at the sky that was about to brighten up, and was about to turn around and go back to the house to take a breath, when a servant ran over in a panic and shouted: "My lord, there are many more petitions." Tell Lord Song's people!"

Feng Shoudao's exhausted expression disappeared for a moment, his face became cold, and after suppressing the surging blood, he ordered: "Please come in!"

The yamen servant went away in response.

"It's better to be happy alone than to be happy together." Chen Chaoyan woke up and saw Yue Jian with curved eyebrows and bright eyes, and joked, "Tell me, what good things happened?"

"It's nothing good." There was a maidservant from the Sheriff's Mansion, so Yue Jian didn't come to help.Walking to the dressing table, he picked up the white jade comb, and while waiting for her to comb her hair, he said, "There are more and more people who have come to sue Song Yanzhong."

"More than last night?" Chen Chaoyan asked when he sat in front of her.

"Last night there were at most two hundred people." Yue Jian said while combing her hair, "today, there are at least three to four hundred people guarding outside the sheriff's mansion."

Chen Chaoyan said: "Maybe I came here to watch the excitement."

Yue Jian said: "Then I don't know."

I don't know if they came to watch the excitement, anyway, the people who sued Song Yanzhong left and came again; left and came again.After repeated tossing and tossing like this, five days passed in a flash.In the past five days, the investigation within a range of ten miles still found nothing.

This morning.

With the help of her maid, Chen Chaoyan was putting on her clothes, when Yue Jian came in with a tsk-tsk sound.Chen Chaoyan looked at her, and asked routinely: "Isn't it over yet?"

"It's early," Yuejian said, "I see the person outside, it won't be over in ten days and a half."

He had to go in and out of the Sheriff's Mansion several times a day, so Chen Chaoyan could not avoid seeing the people guarding outside.At first, she thought that they were guarding outside, mostly to join in the fun, but as the number of yamen servants who investigated with them in the past two days became less and less, she realized that they were almost all here to expose Song Yanzhong.But she had seen Song Yanzhong's pawn transaction records at Yingou Cabinet Workshop.With the data in that record, it is absolutely not worthy of the current grand occasion.

Originally, Chen Chaoyan didn't intend to ask, this matter is beyond her ability to intervene.But since Yue Jian talked about this, she also took advantage of the situation and asked: "Why are there more and more people?"

"Because Song Yanzhong is not the only one who is suing now." Yue Jian said, "Lingyou said that after reading the account books kept by Zhou Zhongcai, Mr. Feng issued an order to ask everyone under Sicang to put away all the money they have spent outside these years. Write down all the property seized by various names, and also write a separate copy of the property distributed to Song Yanzhong. If you can’t write it, you have to parade it in the streets.”

"In addition, Judiciary and Sihu were not spared. Whether they are military personnel, Zuo, Shi, or government servants, they all have to write. If they can't write, they have to parade in the streets like everyone in Sicang. Show off."

"I don't know how the wind leaked, and people from outside swarmed over."

"It seems that Mr. Feng is determined to rectify the county guard's mansion." Chen Chaoyan said.

"He must have made up his mind." Yuejian said as a matter of course, "Young Master is here, if he ignores it, he should be punished later!"

Chen Chaoyan glanced at her through the bronze mirror, "Aren't you afraid that Luyang County will be in chaos this time?"

"It's different from before." Yuejian retorted, "When Ms. Chen wanted to question them before, she didn't have any real evidence, and secondly, she was involved in a murder case. One was not well grasped, and later they secretly provoked the people to make trouble. Luyang County is in chaos. Now that the evidence of the crime is convincing, and the law has been corrupted, and the people outside have also participated, even if they want to provoke trouble, the people will definitely not be willing."

"Since you don't want to, have your young masters handed over the records of the people in the Sheriff's Mansion pawning in the Silver Hook Cabinet Workshop to Mr. Feng?" Chen Chaoyan asked casually.

"It's handed over." Speaking of this, Yuejian became interested in an instant, "On the night Mrs. Zhou handed over the account books, the young master gave those records to Mr. Feng. Listening to Ling's lobbying, Mr. Feng got those records and only After one glance, he vomited blood and passed out. It was Bai Shao who rushed over to rescue him. After waking up, Master Feng kowtowed three times in the direction of the capital, and continued to deal with the people outside to sue Song Yanzhong without looking back. thing."

Chen Chaoyan commented casually: "Judging from the transaction records of pawns from the top and bottom of the Sheriff's Mansion to the Silver Hook Cabinet Workshop, the roots of the Sheriff's Mansion are already rotten. If you want to rectify it, you can only do something drastic. Zhou Zhongcai's account book is a very good one. It’s a good opportunity. It’s also a rare opportunity for the common people to expose it.”

Yuejian Huanxi said: "Young master also said the same."

Yeah?Chen Chaoyan didn't think much about it. Seeing that her hair was combed, she got up and went to the desk, took out the topographic map of Luyang County and spread it on the table, and looked at the information of the few people who were going to investigate today.
