"I dare to ask Madam Xiahou, but Yang Langjun is back?" Huang Xianzuo couldn't help but asked curiously as he watched Mulan walk up to Xiahou Yue who was sitting opposite and whisper a few words in her ear.

In order to solve this disappearance case as early as possible, Huang County Assistant not long ago followed Li Yu's order and came to ask Yang Qing to continue his assistance. However, he did not expect that Yang Qing was not at home early in the morning and did not know where he went. No

As a last resort, he had to go to the nearby Xiahou Mansion to ask, but he could not find out Yang Qing's whereabouts, so he had to ask Xiahou Yue to send someone out to look for him.

Xia Houyue shook his head and said, "I haven't come back yet, but I have some news. According to the waiter at the Hu Cake Shop on Qian Street, Yang Langjun ate a few cakes there more than half an hour ago and then headed towards Beicheng."

Huang County Zuo said: "Then it's very likely that Yang Langjun has already gone to the place we made an appointment with last night." After saying that, he quickly stood up and cupped his hands and said, "In that case, I won't sit here empty-handed."

Xia Houyue did not try to persuade her to stay, and said: "County officer, please go slowly. If there is any news, please send someone to inform the little girl in time."

"Of course, I'll say goodbye."

Before the three of them parted last night, they made an appointment to meet up in the alley where the murder weapon was found the next day. However, Li Yu and Huang County Zuo arrived at the place on time and there was no sign of Yang Qing. They sat there and waited for a stick of incense but still did not see Yang Qing arrive.

The two of them thought that maybe Yang Qing had not gotten up because he was tired yesterday and missed the appointment. Li Yu urgently ordered Huang County Assistant to go to Yang Qing's home to invite him over, but no one knew that there was no one at home. Now Huang County Assistant is available.

According to the news, it is estimated that Li Yu has gone to rendezvous, but it was delayed for some reason. It is impossible to say that Yang Qing has rejoined Li Xianwei at this moment.

When Huang Xianzuo rushed back to the alley, he saw Yang Qing. At this time, he and Li Yu were inspecting the scene of the murder and talking.

"Yang Langjun, can you find a good meal next time?" Huang Xianzuo said breathlessly.

When Yang Qing came, he knew that Huang County Zuo had brought people to his home, so he quickly begged Li Yu to send someone to call him back. But now that Huang County Zuo was back, he must have missed the second group of people. Thinking of this, Yang

Qing was also embarrassed and quickly apologized: "It's Qing's fault that Lao County Zuo ran away for nothing. I hope you can forgive me." Of course, Huang County Zuo didn't really blame Yang Qing, so he quickly returned the favor and asked curiously.

Yang Qing went there early in the morning.

It turned out that Yang Qing was worried about this disappearance case. He went back to bed last night and tossed and turned, and finally fell asleep in the middle of the night. Because he had something on his mind, he woke up early this morning and remembered that he asked Huang County Assistant to send someone yesterday.

To test how long it would take to travel between several places, I'm afraid he already had the results after he went home last night. However, in order to confirm his idea, he planned to experience it himself, so he simply went to those places to verify it for himself, so this was

He was delayed in meeting up with Li Yu and others. After he arrived here, Li Yu informed the thieves of the results of yesterday's test. After comparing the two, it seemed that they were not much different from his own test.

"That's it." Huang County Assistant understood the whole story, and he admired Yang Qing more and more in his heart. This Yang Langjun was really a responsible person. He actually took the trouble to verify it again in person, but he didn't know what the result would be. Last night, he begged the thieves to come back and report.

, he has also gone home. This morning, Li Yu said that he would wait until Yang Qing came over before telling him anything, so he didn't know yet, so he immediately asked curiously: "Then what will be the result?"

Yang Qingdao: "From the time Wu Er and Zhu Ba left Wang Tong last night, it took more than half a quarter of an hour to get to Zhu Ba's house, but it only took half a quarter to get here. And it took about two quarters to get to Zhu Ba's house from here. Of course.

The time taken for the above journey is all the result of walking quickly. I think if Zhu Ba was a prisoner, he would not be running on the street. After all, although it was midnight last night and there was almost no one on the road, there were still many people.

There is a high chance that you will meet watchmen, sergeants patrolling the streets, pedestrians, beggars, etc. If you are seen while running, you will attract too much attention."

Huang Xianzuo nodded and said: "That's true. But Yang Langjun, I remember yesterday that Zhu Ba's wife He said that Zhu Ba came home at 2:00 a.m., so how long did it take for him to get home?

Will it be too long?"

Yang Qing smiled bitterly and said: "Although this is a doubtful point, it can be explained by Zhu Ba. After all, at normal speed, it would take him about a quarter of an hour to walk home from where he broke up with Wang Tong. If he had been drinking the night before,

I can’t find fault with him because he was a little drunk after eating so he walked slowly.”

Li Yu also spoke at this time: "Mingzhi is right. It makes sense that it took Zhu Ba two quarters of an hour to get home. Besides, if Zhu Ba is a suspect, then he left Wang Tong and others and came here to kill Xinlan with stones.

Injuring or even killing Xinlan, and then hiding Xinlan and then returning home, it would take at least three quarters of an hour, which is contrary to the fact that he returned home at two quarters of an hour."

Huang County Assistant heard what Li Yu said made sense, but he was a little confused. Doesn't this mean that Zhu Ba is also innocent? He immediately expressed his doubts: "County Lieutenant, Lang Jun, doesn't Zhu Ba also have innocence?"

of?"

"No, Zhu Ba still has time to commit the crime." Yang Qing rejected Huang Xianzuo's inference. He looked at the confused and questioning expressions of the two people and continued: "It does take two moments to get to Zhu Ba's house from here.

It's been a long time, but this is the time to take the main road that everyone usually takes. I have asked the people nearby that there are several shortcuts from here to Zhu Ba's house, but they only need to go through the streets and alleys. And I have chosen

I tried walking through a secluded shortcut, but it only took most of a moment."

"It's actually so much less than when the main road was in use!" Huang Xianzuo exclaimed.

Li Yu said with a smile: "I see, then Zhu Ba can come here within two-quarters of an hour to commit murder and then take Xin Lan back home via a remote path."

"What Brother Ziyu said is absolutely true. Alas, it's just our inference. There is no evidence at this time." Yang Qing walked to a locust tree with his hands behind his back and sighed.

Li Yu laughed when he heard this: "It's not difficult to understand this. Zhu Ba has a motive and time to commit the crime. If he can't explain his whereabouts yet, this is already a serious suspicion. Brother, I can detain him now until

He will be interrogated in court, and I believe that under severe punishment, he will not be able to confess honestly."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yang Qing smiled bitterly in his heart. He knew that this was the current routine method used by the government to solve crimes. To be honest, Li Yu had already conducted a lot of evidence collection work under his influence.

If he had followed his usual case-handling habits, based on preliminary suspicions after yesterday's questioning, I'm afraid Li Yu would have had Wu Er and Zhu Ba sentenced to death. Although in this era of backward criminal investigation technology, this is also a method, but this is

It was very easy to give in and fall into a trap. He didn't want to see Li Yu use this method unless he had to, so he still wanted to try harder.

"Brother, don't be impatient. Almost no ordinary person can survive the severe punishment. In this case, he may be beaten into submission. This will also damage the wisdom of brother. We will search again and make another decision." Yang Qing hurriedly persuaded him to stop.

Li Yu, it would be bad if he really adopts this method.

Li Yu and Huang Xianzuo exchanged glances with each other, thinking secretly that their wise brother was not only extremely talented, but also had a somewhat unusual way of doing things. Could it be that the behavior of a descendant of a hermit master was so different?

Since Ming Zhi has the confidence to solve the case, he must trust him. After all, using severe punishment to solve the case is indeed not a smart method. Thinking of this, Li Yu smiled: "Forget it, in that case, as my brother said, I

Let’s do another search later.”

"It's just Mingzhi, what should we do next?" Li Yu paused and asked.

"Brother, I thought that if Zhu Ba killed or injured Xin Lan here, he would definitely hide it. But you know that it only took two quarters of an hour for Zhu Ba to get home. This means that Zhu Ba hid Xin Lan.

There are two most likely places.”

Li Yu quickly asked: "Which two places are they?"

"One place is on the way from here to Zhu Ba's house, and the other place can only be at Zhu Ba's home." Yang Qing expressed his opinion: "So next, please ask my brother to continue to order people to follow these two

Search carefully in the direction of the road."

Li Yu said: "I understand, Huang County Zuo, please tell me to go down."

Huang County Assistant on the side could no longer hold back after hearing Yang Qing's reasoning. He hurriedly responded and rushed to make arrangements for the officials.

"Mingzhi, come and sit and wait." Li Yu couldn't help shouting when he saw that there was no news for a while, and Yang Qing was walking up and down the alley again. Yang Qing also felt a little tired from standing, so he left.

He went over to sit next to Li Yu. Not long after he sat on the bed, he asked for revenge.

"County Lieutenant, there is something discovered in the alley ahead." The person who came to report was the old Li Tou who discovered this place yesterday. It seems that with his rich experience in handling cases, he has made another major discovery this time.
