Dreaming back to the Tang Dynasty, I was working as a detective in Chang'an

Young Master Zhang has not shown up since Lin Wan'er was killed, and it is not known whether he is dead or alive. Chun, an important person related to this case, was killed, and Xue Linzhi also had evidence of alibi, and we fell into a dead end again.

There has been a lot of commotion these days, and the superiors have been putting pressure on the county. There is no other way, so the county magistrate has no choice but to dispatch personnel from other counties to conduct a large-scale investigation of the whereabouts of Mr. Zhang San. Fortunately, the Tang Dynasty had a very good household registration management system. A missing person notice was posted to mobilize the masses, and the investigation was still very intensive.

Two days later, Detective Liu from Chang'an County received a report from an informant, saying that they had discovered Young Master Zhang at a farmer's house in Sanlipu, fifty or sixty miles away from Chang'an County.

When we found Young Master Zhang, he was lying on a dirty bed in a dilapidated old house, sound asleep. We woke him up, but he didn't seem to feel much about our arrival. Surprise, but a feeling of relief.

We can successfully find Mr. Zhang this time, and we have to thank one person, that is Captain Liu from the Chang'an County Government, named Liu Changchun.

Agent Liu is an old police officer in the Chang'an County government office. He has a wide circle of friends and dozens of informants, so there is no big or small matter in Chang'an County that he doesn't know. But maybe we didn't worship the mountain when we came, so he expressed great dissatisfaction with our arrival. If it weren't for the order of the county magistrate, he would definitely not help us.

Fatty and I can understand, after all, this investigation is only to help Lin Waner's wronged soul find the truth, so that she can be reincarnated, but we didn't expect that it would involve another murder case. After all, they helped us this time, so Fatty and I decided to treat Agent Liu to a quick drink. After all, the conflict between men cannot be resolved with one drink. If it can't be resolved, then two drinks.

In fact, Agent Liu was quite cheerful. As soon as we invited him, he readily went to the appointment. After three drinks at the wine table, we told him what happened to Lin Wan'er this time, and he was no longer angry. After the five flavors of the dish, we were already brothers.

We went to check out Mr. Zhang’s residence together, and found an ink in his study. This ink was the same as the ink in Lin Waner’s nails. Now the fat man and I breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that we were leaving. The truth is not far away.

The interrogation of Young Master Zhang began the next day.

Mr. Zhang's name is Zhang Ziming. He is handsome and thin, and his sunken eye sockets prove that he has not had a good night's sleep in many days. He must have a guilty conscience.

The county magistrate brought Fuyaozi and Sun Maocai to the front of the hall and asked Fuyaozi to identify whether the person in front of him was the person who bought his charm. Fuyaozi nodded and said, "Although he wears a mask, he looks very much like him in body shape, and his voice is the same. It's him!"

"Zhang Ziming, are you telling me from the truth that you killed Lin Wan'er and Chun Jiao?"

Zhang Ziming said calmly: "Master, please don't accuse a good person unjustly. You said I killed someone, do you have any evidence?"

The county magistrate motioned for me to ask him, and I cleared my throat and said:

"You said you didn't kill Lin Wan'er. Why did you get married and get on the ship that day? Why did you return halfway? Since you didn't kill anyone, why did Lin Wan'er have the charm and soul-suppressing clothes you bought on her body?"

"You said that the Taoist priest recognized me, but I didn't know him. How could you just say that I was the one who bought his things? I don't know about the talisman or soul-suppressing clothes." Zhang Ziming denied it flatly.

"You are really stubborn. Let me ask you, why was there ink from your study in Lin Wan'er's nails when she died?"

"Lin Wan'er is good at writing. It's normal for her nails to get ink. Why do you think it's from my study?"

"Ink is different from ink. The ink in Lin Waner's nails is not sold in the market at all. It is only available in your home. How do you explain it?"

"That may have been accidentally put in her nails when she was learning to write with me some time ago. It doesn't prove anything at all." It seems that he is really a ruthless character with a very strong psychological quality.

I asked, "Have you ever been to Lin Waner's room?"

"No, never. That is my wife's boudoir. She has not allowed me to enter her room since I met her. She said it is unlucky to enter a girl's room before marriage, so I have never entered it."

At this time, he didn't know what was wrong, and suddenly felt dizzy. He quickly took out a piece of brown sugar from his sleeve and was about to put it in his mouth. I grabbed his wrist and said:

"Since you have never entered Lin Wan'er's room, how come there is a piece of brown sugar exactly like yours in the corner of the room? Moreover, we have also interviewed all the people in Yijiangnan. None of them have the habit of eating sugar, and this sugar can only be Bought it in Suzhou."

"Just because I haven't entered Lin Wan'er's room doesn't mean that others haven't seen it, and this candy is not a tribute. Anyone who has been to Suzhou can buy it. Please don't slander me."

I continued to ask him: "Isn't Lin Wan'er married to you? Why are you hiding alone in the countryside?"

"Because she cuckolded me, I kicked her off the boat. I couldn't explain it to my family when I went to Suzhou alone, so I also got off the boat and wanted to stay in the countryside for two days to quiet myself down. . I originally thought about it and went to find Lin Wan'er, but who knew she was killed."

"Lin Wan'er cuckolded you?"

"Yes." When he said the word 'yes', I found a cold light suddenly flashed in his originally dull eyes, and that cold light was full of hatred.

While we were interrogating Zhang Ziming, we also launched a large-scale search at his home. The hard work paid off. We found a bundle in a well in the backyard, which contained a deboning steel knife and a An ax and a hammer, both of which had blood stains on them.

Now the murder weapons were found. When we placed these murder weapons in front of Zhang Ziming, he was like a deflated ball, slumping on the ground helplessly.

The county magistrate was shocked and shouted loudly: "Now that the witnesses and physical evidence are all there, what else do you have to say? Hurry and tell the truth. How did you kill Lin Wan'er and Chun Jiao? Otherwise, don't blame me." Your little body will definitely not be able to bear the torture!"

I saw despair in Zhang Ziming's eyes. He lowered his head and slowly told us his story.
