Chapter 2 Murder Cases in the Qing Dynasty

"I'm going to be a mother... I'm not traveling through time, right?" After coming to my senses, Liu Hua looked at the two people in front of him with a puzzled look: "Two, please ask you something, who am I?"

After hearing Liu Hua’s question, the old master and the young boy looked at each other, and then the old master stepped forward and touched Liu Hua’s forehead: “No, it’s not burning? Why is the child’s mouth full of nonsense?”

After a pause, the old master continued, "Liu Hua, are you confused? Why don't you even remember who you are? You are Liu Hua, the only son of Liu Xiucai's family in Santunzi Village.

Just now, you and Longhai didn’t study hard, so while I was taking a nap, they actually sneaked out to catch birds. There was no problem with catching birds. The problem was that you two didn’t even look at the weather. Today was a thunderstorm day. As a result, you just climbed onto the tree, and the tree was struck by a thunderbolt.

Do you think it's strange? After being struck by lightning, the tree and the birds on the tree were all fine, but you were struck by lightning. I don't know if you were dizzy or were struck by lightning? After landing, you became unconscious.

After seeing your situation, Longhai was frightened and hurriedly called me out. Then we carried you here to treat you. At that time, you were chopped to the darkest body. In order to save you, I used a unique secret technique that I had hidden for many years. My secret technique was indeed extremely magical. It worked in one fell swoop and successfully awakened you."

While telling his previous experience, the old master stroked his beard and shook his head, his face full of pride, as if his unique secret technique was so good. Seeing this, Liu Hua couldn't help rolling his eyes at him and said to himself: "If I don't wake up again, you will have to put on a brick."

After complaining in his heart, Liu Hua was still a little confused. He checked his image through the water surface in the water tank and found that he had become a 14 or 15-year-old child. His appearance was the same as when he was a child, but his appearance became a standard Qing Dynasty person.

He then checked his body again and found that his body had become a teenager state. He touched the big braid on his head and saw his current appearance. Liu Hua shouted in dismay: "Oh, Maigada." Then his brain fell into a blank again.

Seeing the expression on Liu Hua's face, Long Hai next to him couldn't help but ask, "Liu Hua, what's wrong with you? Why did you become weird after falling a little? Just now, the gentleman has sent someone to notify Uncle Liu. I guess Uncle Liu is coming soon. When you see Uncle Liu, you may be better."

It would be fine if Longhai didn't say this, but after he finished speaking, Liu Hua couldn't hold back his anger. In just a while, Longhai and the old master could see that they were a little strange. If they waited for the Liu Xiucai to come, they might still see something was wrong with him?

Thinking of this, Liu Hua decided that he would not meet his cheap dad for the time being. He needed to understand the current background first, to reduce his flaws, and by the way, he would digest all the things in front of him.

When his thoughts stopped, Liu Hua crawled out of the water tank and saw a pile of dirty clothes at the door of the room. He judged that it should be his own clothes. So, in the surprised eyes of Longhai and the others, he picked up the clothes and put them on them, then opened the door and breathed the air outside, stretched his waist a little, and then he closed the door from outside, pulled his feet open and ran away.

Pu Hai and the old master in the room saw Liu Hua running out and hurriedly chased him out of the room: "Liu Hua, Liu Hua, what are you doing?" After shouting, seeing that there was no sign of Liu Hua in the yard, the old master looked at Longhai with some anxiety: "Longhai, hurry up and chase him, don't let something happen to him. If he has a few shortcomings, how can I explain to Liu Xiucai?"

After hearing the old Master's order, Longhai said "Oh" and then chased out of the door.

Liu Hua ran on the street, looking at the strange buildings outside and the pedestrians running back and forth on the street, he immediately accepted the fact that he had traveled through time, but now there are many things that still puzzled him. Why did he travel through time? Why did he become what he was when he was a child after traveling through time? Why is there a boy named Liu Hua here? And this Liu Hua was exactly the same as he was when he was young? Is there an automatic matching system for traveling through time?

Just as he was puzzled by what he had traveled through time, he suddenly realized that the road ahead was blocked. In front of a door, many ordinary people were standing there, as if they were watching something?

Because there had just been a thunderstorm, most people did not go out at home. There are so many people gathering in this place, which aroused Liu Hua's curiosity. After he ran into the crowd, he squeezed into it vigorously.

After squeezing inside, Liu Hua found that it seemed to be the county government acting on TV. There was a huge screen on the back of the county government hall, with a "Jiangya Mountain and Sea Chart" painted on it. There was a horizontal plaque on the screen with four large words "The mirror is hanging high" written on it.

At this moment, it seemed that the county government was handling a case? Because Liu Hua saw two wooden boards on the ground in the lobby of the county government, each of which was placed with a corpse, and a piece of white cloth stamped on it.

Next to the body, a young man dressed in a scholar was kneeling. The scholar was so scared that he was trembling. Behind the scholar, there were also several people kneeling, including old and young. At this moment, a young man with a sad and angry expression was telling everyone in the hall what was it?

On both sides of the county yamen hall were more than a dozen yamen runners holding water and fire sticks. Above these yamen runners, there was an old man dressed in a master who was recording the confession of the person involved in the scene. Next to the master, there was a county magistrate and a chief clerk sitting respectively. In the middle of the county yamen hall, a middle-aged man in an official uniform was concentrating on the case. He saw this man wearing a Xia Changfu official hat and an official uniform embroidered with "Hongshu" on his chest. He knew that this person must be the county magistrate here.

After Liu Hua saw this, he had a career disease that had been a policeman before and was recurring. He squatted down and heard the case process there.

It turned out that the two corpses on the ground in the lobby were a couple. The man was named Li Baocai and the woman was named Li Zhang. Yesterday, Li Baocai's son got married, so he held a banquet at home. Because of his happiness, Li Baocai drank a little high at noon and kept sleeping, and did not even attend the banquet at night.

After the banquet ended, it was around 10 o'clock in the evening, which is now around 10 o'clock in the evening. Because Li Baocai's son lives in the new house, Li Zhang asked his son to go back and rest, saying that the guests' table would be cleaned up until tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Li Baocai's son Li Ming led his newlywed wife to pay tribute to his parents. As soon as they left their new house, they saw Zhang Zhongju, a scholar in the village, running out of their parents' yard with panic.

In confusion, Li Ming hurriedly pulled his wife to his parents' home. When they arrived at Li Baocai's home, they were all shocked by the scene in front of him. It turned out that the bodies of Li Baocai and his wife were both lying in the yard, and blood dyed their clothes red, and the yard was filled with a pungent smell of blood.

After seeing this, recalling Zhang Zhongju's abnormal behavior just now, Li Ming immediately reported the matter to the official. Captain Chen from the county yamen personally led people to investigate the scene, and then determined that Zhang Zhongju was seriously suspected, so he brought a group of yamen runners to arrest Zhang Zhongju.
