Early in the morning, many people gathered outside the government office.

Wu Xianming's body was placed on the courtroom, his face was blue, his forehead was blood red, and his clothes were also stained with blood.

Wu Xianming's family members all came. His parents knelt on the ground, holding Wu Xianming's hand and crying, while his wife hugged their son Dandan and silently wiped away tears.

The family can no longer care about the conflicts in the past, and heaven and man are separated forever.But in the end, they are still close relatives. When a person dies, both grievances and grievances disappear, leaving only heartache.

The town order patted the gavel a few times, and the discussion of the people outside the court stopped, but the crying of the Wu family continued, so the town order simply waited for them to cry enough.

The time for a cup of tea passed, and they were still crying, so the Zhen Ling had no choice but to pat the gavel a few more times, and said loudly, "Silence, silence!"

For a moment, Wu Xianming's parents were so shocked that they forgot to speak out.

Zhen Ling said: "Wu Zuo, you talk."

Wu Zuo bowed and said: "The deceased hit the wall and died. It took about an hour to die. Except for the forehead injury, he had nothing else. He should have committed suicide."

Wu Xianming's mother shouted: "Impossible, how could my son commit suicide, this is absolutely impossible!"

Zhenling said: "Then the official asked you if Wu Xianming had any conflicts with you. Didn't he even say a word to you all these years?"

These words hit Wu Xianming's mother's heart, she lowered her head and acquiesced.

The town order said again: "Since you haven't gotten along peacefully for many years, how do you know that Wu Xianming won't do this?"

Wu Xianming's father said: "He is my son, how could we not understand him, Xianming doesn't talk much, but he is upright and straightforward, and he will never be overwhelmed with suicide, my lord, please be careful."

Zhen Ling said: "People's hearts will change. You haven't communicated with him for many years. You will definitely not know whether his thoughts are the same as before. Moreover, Wu Xianming is the suspect in the case of missing children. He had a disturbed conscience and committed suicide in fear of crime. , makes sense."

Mrs. Wu Xianming said: "My lord, I... my father-in-law will not do anything to kill children. There must be some misunderstanding..."

The town order narrowed his eyes and said, "How can the Yamen's office judge the case and wrongly wrong people. Come here and send witnesses."

witness?

The people outside the courtroom were all shocked, the government office actually found a witness!

Above the courtroom, a man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks knelt on the ground and said loudly: "See you, my lord."

Zhenling said: "Tell me what you saw."

"Yes, my lord." The man said, "The day before yesterday was about Mao, just after it rained, I went to the bushes to catch hares, and when I walked to the abandoned house in the forest, I happened to see a person sneaking out from there. This is the person..."

The man pointed at Wu Xianming with a very firm tone.

Mrs. Wu Xianming said: "Impossible, you must be wrong, it can't be him!"

Zhenling said: "Well, let me ask you, was the deceased at home at Maoshi the day before yesterday?"

Mrs. Wu Xianming paused, and said with a pale face, "No...not here, he would go out to sell candied haws every day at that time."

Zhen Ling said with satisfaction: "Then what this person said is correct."

The man said: "My lord, it was dawn at that time, I could see clearly, there was no mistake, it was he who killed the poor child."

Zhen Ling said: "Since the evidence is convincing, this case is closed. Wu Xianming deserves to die, but since he has committed suicide, he will not pursue other matters. Retire!"

The town order gave a gavel, making the people outside the courtroom smile. The recent disappearance of a child has caused Donghe Town to be extremely uneasy. Now that the murderer is dead, it is at peace.

However, at this moment, a clear voice shouted: "Wait!"

Among the crowd of people watching, three of them broke through a path and came in a hurry.

The town orderer had already left his seat, so he sat back and asked, "Who is here?"

But those three people didn't pay attention to him, but the witnesses in the courtroom saw them, their complexion changed, their hands and feet were a little flustered, but they pretended to stand there very calmly.

He Li got off Ju Xie's back, stood leaning against him, and said, "Seventeen, catch that man."

Seventeen immediately went over, without waiting for the witness to resist, clasped his hands behind his back, and then kicked his knee, making him kneel on the ground.

The witness panicked and said, "My lord, help me, my lord."

The town order said: "If you go against you, you dare to make a noise in the courtroom, come here!"

The yamen servants standing upright on both sides stepped forward immediately, and swung the water and fire sticks at Shi Qi in unison.

Shi Qi clasped the man's hand and did not move, turned around, bent over to avoid the stick, drew out the saber at his waist, and looked carefully at the yamen guards around him.

He Li said: "What this person said just now is all lies. The child was not killed by Wu Xianming, but someone else. Let them stop, this case is not closed yet."

Zhenling said with a sullen face, "Why did you say that?"

He Li said: "You ask him."

Seventeen retracted the sword in his hand and pressed it against the witness's neck.

The witness was sweating coldly on his forehead, almost lost control of himself in fright, and stammered: "You...what are you talking about, I don't know anything..."

Heli grabbed Juxie's hand and said, "You don't know, but I know, I saw you a few days ago, and you were arrogantly following behind a dude, why didn't you see each other for a few days, and you actually started to give false testimony !"

**

Outside the courtroom, there was an uproar, and everyone pointed at the 'witness', resentful.

The town order said, "Perjury?"

He Li said: "When the child was killed, I was there. The murderers were two big men, and I was almost killed by them."

The town order hummed: "There is no evidence for what you say."

He Li said: "The wounds on my body are the evidence."

He Li wore plain clothes, the skirts and belts were neatly trimmed, his complexion was bad, his lips were pale, and he looked obviously sick, if it wasn't for the people around him holding his waist, he would hardly be able to stand up.

The town order said to Wu: "Go and check."

Wu Zuo cupped his hands: "Yes."

Wu Zuo walked over, wanting to undress and sharpen his clothes, Ju Xie raised his eyebrows, and glanced over coldly, Wu Zuo's outstretched hand seemed to be covered in a layer of frost, the whole body froze, and he couldn't get any closer.

Ju Xie said indifferently: "You don't know how to watch the living and the dead, so how can you do it at will?"

Wu Zuo met Shang Juxie's eyes, and he began to feel uneasy in his heart. He didn't understand why he was afraid, but he couldn't help it, he couldn't control it.Wu Zuo thumped, sat down on the ground, and even couldn't help moving back a few steps.

Ju Xie's eyes were covered with boundless blackness, and a huge storm was rolled up, as if to swallow everything.But there was no wave on his face, extremely calm.

Zhenling Wuyuan also began to panic, he clenched the gavel tightly, slapped it twice, calmed down a little, and said in a loud voice like a bell: "Bold, above the court, you dare to disobey this magistrate!"

But Ju Xie suddenly said: "Wu Xianming is still breathing, he is not dead."

As soon as this remark came out, the entire court was dumbfounded, all in an unbelievable attitude.

He Li was also surprised: "Isn't he dead?"

Ju Xie said: "It is true."

He had just noticed that the closed eyes of the 'dead' Wu Xianming trembled slightly, and his chest rose and fell weakly. He was going to examine Wu Xianming's injuries, but He Li was covered in injuries all over his body, unable to sit or stand firmly. In this tense courtroom, he didn't want others to help him.

So, he said to Wu: "You go to check it again. As a teacher, the corpse is still alive, but you have to identify it clearly."

Wu Zuo turned pale with fright, turned his head to look at the town order, and the town order hurriedly said: "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and check."

Wu Zuo scrambled and crawled, and went to examine Wu Xianming's body again.This time he didn't just check the wound, he rolled his eyelids, took his pulse, and sniffed. Then, he knelt on the ground and said again and again: "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible."

The town order asked anxiously, "Is the person dead or not?"

Wu Zuo said: "My lord, he...was clearly dead just now..."

The town order repeated: "Is that dead or not dead?"

Wu Zuo wiped off his cold sweat and said, "Alive again..."
