At night when the lights were on, everyone was having dinner on the kang in the backyard, when suddenly the door of the shop in front was smashed and there was a loud bang.

An Xiaobei was sick, Baiwa was hurt, Qu Chi was timid, and only Shang Yi opened the door. Mu Yunyi always felt that the situation in the store these days was weird. He followed behind with a pair of knives, and followed out secretly.

I only found out after asking before that it was Mrs. Li's young servant Jinbao and maid Xihong who came back: "Open the door quickly, the matter that Madam asked us to do is done, and I am about to reply. Why did you come out for so long?"

Mu Yunyi looked out through the gap in the door, and saw that there was no one else but the two of them, and they didn't have anything in their hands, so he let Shang Yi open the door for him.

After the two entered the room, they didn't even say hello, and went upstairs in a hurry. While stomping on the stairs, Xihong shouted excitedly: "Madam! Madam! Everything you asked us to do for you Done!"

Mu Yunyi asked Shang Yi to lock the door again, and then went back to the backyard for dinner. Just as he reached the corner of the stairs, he suddenly heard Xihong's ear-piercing scream: "Ma'am! Ma'am! Why are you like this! Ma'am! Come on!" Someone! Come on! Kill someone! Woo... what are you doing! Help! Kill someone!" Then there was another rush of heavy footsteps, and he ran out quickly, scrambling to the top of the stairs, Her hair was in a disheveled bun, her face was pale, and she shouted to Mu Yunyi and the others, "Madam was killed! Madam was killed by Jiang Chunshui!"

Mu Yunyi frowned, and Shang Yi looked over in disbelief. Mu Yunyi said, "We can't just go up like this. Let's go and call Xiaobei and the others." The two ignored Xihong and turned around. He quickly ran to the back room and briefly explained the matter.

After hearing this, the three of them exclaimed in surprise, "Impossible? Jiang Chunshui, he, he... has eaten the heart of a bear and swallowed the guts of a leopard, how dare he kill someone!"

An Xiaobei hurriedly got up to get dressed, but Bai Wa turned over and ignored him: "It's better to kill her, then what kind of lady is not a good cake, Jiang Chunshui is even more hateful, he killed her, and then he will pay for her life. It just happened to let the two of them perish together, I am satisfied, you don't look at it, just wait for the government to deal with it, anyway, we have only seen that woman once these days, so we can't blame us, just watch the fun from the sidelines It’s good to watch white drama.”

Qu Chi was overwhelmed with fright: "Jiang Chunshui really killed someone? He won't go crazy, he will come and kill us later, right?"

"It's possible!" Bai Wa got up from the kang with a grunt, groaned in pain, and said, enduring the pain, "Quickly go and lock the door, don't let him kill you!"

Qu Chi hurried to the outer room, trembling, his legs were weak from fright, Shang Yi looked at Mu Yunyi again, and Mu Yunyi waved his hand: "Go and bolt the door, we are all children, we can't handle such a big one." We can only wait for the people from the yamen to come and talk about it.”

Mu Yunyi is so old, and he has never seen a dead person before. Now he is going up, and he really feels a little nervous. Besides, he feels that something is wrong, and he is afraid that he will get involved in the lawsuit. Anyway, the person is dead, and it will be useless to go, and It's none of your business, it's better to hide from the origin.

As expected, Shang Yi listened to his order, and went to tie them to death, and then the five of them hid on the kang, waiting for news from outside.

Seeing that Mu Yunyi and Shang Yi were gone forever, Xihong stomped her feet in hatred, and ran to the street outside, shouting that she had killed someone, which soon alarmed the neighbors, who gathered to watch the excitement. When the family was having dinner, they were still asleep. When they heard that something had happened, they immediately came out of the house and gathered in front of the teahouse. Soon, Butou Yue, who was on duty, came with four police officers, and went upstairs to check. At the scene of the crime, Mrs. Li was lying on the bed disheveled and out of breath. Jiang Chunshui knelt on the ground, crying loudly for being wronged.

Yue Butou asked a few words, then locked Jiang Chunshui, and called the door in the back room. Mu Yunyi and others opened the door, and the five people were also taken away.

When they arrived in the prison, Mu Yunyi, five of them plus Jinbao were locked in a cell, Xihong was alone, and Jiang Chunshui was alone, and he was also handcuffed and fettered, because he was the most suspected.

Catcher Yue said to Mu Yunyi: "I just brought you here for questioning, to clear up your suspicions. You don't have to go to court. If there is nothing wrong, after recording your statements, you can be released tomorrow morning."

Mu Yunyi cupped his fists and cupped his hands: "Thank you, Butou Yue, for taking care of me!"

Human life was at stake, and County Magistrate Lou couldn't care less about rest. He ordered people to solve the case overnight, and first ordered Wu to conduct an autopsy. It was learned that Mrs. Li was strangled to death, but there was no sign of struggle before she died, and it was very likely that she was in a coma Death by suffocation should be naked | naked | the body, the clothes are put on after death, and the time of death is the night of the first day.

After roughly grasping the situation, the County Magistrate Lou began to try the case, and opened a second court in the Houya, and the first person to be interrogated was Mu Yunyi.

Mu Yunyi was taken to the hall, and saw that the county magistrate was in his 40s, with a bun face, a goatee, and a pair of small eyes, which looked cute. He had been here for more than three months, and he knew the ancient hierarchy The system is so powerful that he lowered his head after just a glance, and knelt down at the door in an orderly manner: "Mu Yunyi, a grassroots man, see Master Qingtian."

County Magistrate Lou said, "Raise your head and speak." When Mu Yunyi raised his head, he sized him up, nodded slightly, and asked, "What is your relationship with Mrs. Li and Jiang Chunshui? When was the last time I saw them?" When? What abnormal conditions do they usually have?"

"Ms. Li is the wife of our shopkeeper. Because of the disappearance of the shopkeeper, she said she was going back to her hometown in Fucheng a few years ago. She was supposed to come back on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, but she hasn't been seen until today. Mrs. Li brought a servant and a maid to come. Looking for him..." Mu Yunyi truthfully told the story of Li's coming to the shop, everything he saw and heard.

County Magistrate Lou patted the gavel: "What you said just now has been recorded by the master. In the future, you will have to testify in court. If there is even half a lie, you will be killed!" Take the good statement, and Mu Yunyi read it carefully from beginning to end, and it was exactly what you said just now, so you signed it and pressed your fingerprints.

After Mu Yunyi, Shang Yi, An Xiaobei, Bai Wa, and Qu Chi interrogated all five of them and recorded their statements.

After taking five confessions and putting them together, County Magistrate Lou looked at each other with reference to each other, and called Butou Yue: "They all have evidence of alibi, and there is no contradiction between the confessions, the suspicion is basically clear. Clean up, they are all immature children, let them go back first, but before the case is closed, they are not allowed to leave the county, and if there is anything, I will summon them at any time!"

After getting the order, Catcher Yue came to lead Mu Yunyi and the others out of the prison: "Magistrate Lou admires you very much, and he will take care of you this time."

Mu Yunyi said gratefully: "Thank you, parents, and thank you for arresting the head." He knew that County Magistrate Lou really took care of them. He originally thought that the best result would be to spend the night in prison and wait until tomorrow morning. He released him, and even kept him locked up until the case was concluded. He never expected to be able to go home so soon, and his gratitude to the county magistrate Lou was real.

Back in the teahouse, the five of them slept on the kang and discussed it until midnight before falling asleep in a daze.

When I got up the next day, because there was a life lawsuit in the store, it could not be opened, and even the door could not be opened. After the five people ate, they continued to discuss this matter on the kang, asking why Jiang Chunshui strangled Mrs. Li to death. , only An Xiaobei remained silent, as if he had something on his mind.

Mu Yunyi did not participate in their discussion, but just calmed down and continued to copy books. Now the "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Surnames", "Thousand Characters" and "Tang Poems", "Song Ci" and "Book of Songs" have been copied. Many, three volumes each, a total of ten volumes, which is quite thick, and he has already started to copy the Analects of Confucius.

Another day passed, and at noon on the third day, Chen Hexuan finally arrived. As soon as he entered, Bai Wa's eyes turned red, she got up from the kang, and choked up and called out: "Master!"

Chen Hexuan reached the edge of the kang and hugged him: "Good boy, I have wronged you!"

As soon as he said this, Bai Wa burst into tears at that time, and quickly wiped away his tears and shook his head: "No wrong, no wrong, if you have a boss, even death is worth it!" An Xiaobei and Qu Chi were also teary It was as if a helpless child wandering outside suddenly found his parents.

Mu Yunyi cupped his hands at him: "Boss."

Chen Hexuan looked at him, with a smile in Taohua's eyes: "Yunyi, the store has not been open for the past two days, so you have to eat and hang up." He reached out and patted the back of Mu Yunyi's hand, "I don't It will make you suffer."

Mu Yunyi was a little dazed, and then said: "It's okay, the boss will lose more, and there will be eggs under the overturned nest? No one wants such a thing to happen, and I accept the boss's wishes."

Chen Hexuan just smiled and didn't say anything else. When everyone asked about Jiang Chunshui, Chen Hexuan said: "Jiang Chunshui strangled Mrs. Li to death. The county magistrate wrote me a letter asking me to come here, but he still wants to ask me what I mean, or take it back to Chen’s house and deal with it myself.”

"Then how does the boss plan to deal with him?" Bai Wa asked gloatingly.

Chen Hexuan said: "Killing people to pay for their lives, and debts to pay back money, I plan to hand him over to the county government and kill him. I'm here to ask you this time, do you still want to see him for the last time?"

Everyone was silent, only An Xiaobei said hesitantly: "Boss, actually... I don't think Mrs. Li was killed by Jiang Chunshui..."

Everyone who said a word was stunned, and Bai Wa said dissatisfiedly: "Xiao Bei, what did you say? The county magistrate has already settled the case, and he said it was his fault. How can you say no? Are you better than the county magistrate?" Still powerful? Or did you kill that person?"
