Chapter 118 Amazing Gloves

Situ Ce said: "Tell me what happened!"

Liu Dong nodded quickly and said, "Yes! We agreed that Guo Zhu will lead the two sons and family of Yan's family to open. That night, we two brought ropes to guard the corner of the door. After Guo Zhu came, he took us into the yard and closed the door. He called and opened the door. He went in and talked to Mr. Yan first, and saw if there were anyone else at home. Then he came out and said that Mr. Yan was taking a bath in the bathtub inside. The two brothers and family of Yan's family were playing horses with him at his mistress.

He would hold them back and let us rest assured that we must find the silver. Then he left, Ma Wei and I went in and asked Mr. Yan where the silver was. The old man wanted money but refused to say anything. We strangled him to death in the bathtub, then looked for the silver. After searching for it for a long time, we found it in the box under Chuáng, wrapped it in a bag, left the Yan family, and said, "Okay, hide the silver in my residence. Let's share the money when the wind passes."

"Are your more than ten taels of silver also the money in it?"

"Yes. A small part was left outside for us to use, and the rest was buried. Yesterday, Ma Wei came to me to ask for money, so he gave him fifteen taels."

"Who covered the quilt and clothes on the face of the deceased?"

"It's me. I carried a quilt from outside and covered my face with my clothes."

"Why do you need to cover it?"

"I heard that before a person dies, he will remember that the last person who looks at his pocket will come back to find him. I am worried that he will come back to find me, and I am afraid of seeing him like that, so I covered him with a quilt and clothes."

Situ Ce thought for a moment, and finally asked, "Did you wear gloves when you committed the crime?"

"Weared."

Situ Ce was surprised and asked, "What are you doing when you wear gloves on a hot day?"

Liu Dong said: "It was Guo Zhu who said that he wore gloves, and others wouldn't know that we did it."

Situ Ce felt something was wrong: "Why did he say that?"

"I don't know either. He asked us to prepare gloves anyway and repeatedly asked us to wear them at that time. We must not take them off. So we put them on."

Situ Ce was a little dumbfounded. How could this happen? Could it be that his historical knowledge was wrong? The ancients in the Ming Dynasty had already known the unified fingerprints and had already used fingerprints to identify their personal identity? No, I have traveled through time for so long and have never heard He Lanbing say about using fingerprints to solve cases. He Lanbing used fingerprints to identify them. He Lanbing was very surprised and was angry about this...

angry!

When he thought of He Lanbing getting angry about this incident, Situ Ce immediately thought of the time travel forensic Meng Tianchu mentioned by He Lanbing! Could it be that this is the Meng Tianchu sect?

You must ask Guo Zhu for a clear question!

Situ Ce and Helanbing took the criminals back to the yamen with the stolen goods. The ones who arrested Guo Zhu and Ma Wei have already returned, and both of them were successfully captured.

Situ Ce immediately interrogated Guo Zhu.

Situ Ce patted Liu Dong's confession in front of Guo Zhu and told him that the stolen goods had been found in Liu Dong's house. Guo Zhu's spiritual defense line immediately collapsed, and immediately explained the process of conspiring to Liu Dong and establishing an offensive and defensive alliance when Ma Wei killed someone and robbed money.

The most important thing Situ Ce wanted to know was the problem of wearing gloves, and asked: "How do you know that wearing gloves can prevent people from finding out that it was your case?"

Guo Zhu said: "It was told by one person. Old Master Yan's family is rich, and he also told me."

"who?"

"I don't know him. I met him when playing horse hanging in the casino. The man spoke in Beijing. The people from the capital were very generous. They played very well that day. His cards were actually very good. He deliberately gave in to me and gave me cards to make some money, so he felt that he felt like he was. After playing cards, he invited me to have a meal and drink, and said he wanted to make friends with me, so I went with him. There were only two of us. When drinking, he asked me how life was. I said it was tight and the expenses were high, so he said why not make some money with one ticket. I thought he was a tip from the yamen, so he didn't say anything, so he laughed and said he just saw that I was a good person and wanted to help me. He said that he heard that the eldest son of the old man Yan was in Beijing.

As an official, I gave Mr. Yan four hundred taels of silver. I had a good relationship with the Yan family, so why didn’t I find an opportunity to have a vote for him? I still didn’t believe him. He finally told the truth, saying that he had a grudge with the Yan family and wanted me to help with revenge. He also took me fifty taels of silver. He also told me that if I decided to do this, I must remember to wear gloves, so that others can find out, and then he left. At first I wondered if it was a trap, and I kept a secret concern for the Yan family and didn’t find anything wrong. The man had never seen him again, so I looked for an opportunity to make friends and chat with Mr. Yan. Mr. Yan was so lucky. Feng, there was indeed such a sum of money. I knew that the man had not lie to me, so I discussed with them to do this case."

"How does this person look?"

"Medium-sized, very strong. He speaks the capital accent."

“He didn’t tell you why wearing gloves prevents others from discovering it?”

“Not said it, just stressing this point repeatedly.

Situ Ce repeatedly questioned and did not ask anything new, so he ordered Guo Zhu to be taken down.

He Lanbing had been on the trial. Seeing him repeatedly questioning about wearing gloves, he asked, "Is this matter very important?"

Situ Ce nodded: "Do you know that you can judge whether this person is based on your fingerprint?"

Helanbing shook his head: "I only know that I can judge the appearance of the handprint."

“That’s inaccurate.”

"The fingerprints are curved, how do you tell if they belong to the same person?"

"This requires a certain amount of technology!" Situ Ce said in a deep voice. "As far as I know, only my master and I know this technology in this world. But now Guo Zhu actually knows it. Of course, he knows it from that mysterious card player, how did that person know this technology?"

Helan said softly: "As far as I know, not only do you and your master know how to use fingerprints to identify whether they are the same person, but there is also someone who knows it."

"Meng Tianchu?" Situ Ce blurted out.

Helanbing nodded slowly: "Unless he is your master, there should be at least three people in this world who know this method.

"Yes! It would be great if I could find this Meng Tianchu. I also want to ask him in person to see if he is my senior brother, maybe it is true."

"How many brothers do you have?"

"?..., I'm the only one at the moment. Oh, I don't know if the master has secretly accepted an apprentice. I don't know where Meng Tianchu is, just find him."

"It's better not to find him!" Helan said a little bit.

"Why?"

He Lanbing shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's continue to investigate the case."

The two of them interrogated Ma Wei again, and Ma Wei confessed that when he was condom like Guo Zhu and Liu Dong, he confessed that it was Guo Zhu's confession, and asked them to wear gloves when committing the crime, saying that this would prevent others from discovering it, but unexpectedly, they would be discovered.

The case was successfully solved, but Situ Ce was not happy because for him, the case was not solved. It is unknown who the mysterious card player was, and whether it was Meng Tianchu. If it were Meng Tianchu, why did he instruct Guo Zhu and the others to kill Mr. Yan? Is it really a grudge against Mr. Yan? These are all mystery before finding this person.

If this just makes Situ Ce not happy, then the next news will make him nervous and worried. The news is that the Eagle Group killer failed again!

The one who told him this news was naturally his deputy, Yinge's deputy director Diao Peng.

Diao Peng visited Situ Ce's family at night. When he arrived in the study, he told Situ Ce the news. He sent two killers from the East Factory Eagle Group to sneak in and assassinate Xiao Heng, but they all went back! It is unknown whether they were killed or captured.

This is not good news for Dongchang. If Jinyiwei knew that it was done by the killer of the Dongchang Eagle Group, it would become a handle to attack Dongchang!

Diao Peng came to ask Situ Ce for instructions on what to do.

Situ Ce's opinion is very simple: to report to Yan Shifan and ask for an idea.

However, Diao Peng had different opinions on this suggestion, and the reason was very sufficient: if the killer was captured for at least four days, it would be difficult to guarantee that he would not leak his identity in the past four days. This was too great. More importantly, it would let the superior know their incompetence. This was their first case, and it would be screwed up, and it might endanger Yan Song's confrontation with Xu Jie in the court, which was very troublesome.

Situ Ce asked him what he wanted to do. Diao Peng analyzed that if someone was sent to assassinate Xiao Heng, only by killing Xiao Heng could he recover the passive situation, because in this way, there would be an explanation for Yan Shifan. This is the most important thing. The killer's failure is inevitable. When the main task is completed, the fault of the killer's failure in the previous killer can be covered up. Even if the killer confesses, he will not recognize him, and the other party will not be able to produce more evidence.

Situ Ce didn't want to care about this matter at all and said, "This matter has been left to you to handle. You can do it yourself, and you don't have to ask me for instructions."

Diao Peng said: "The first two killers are said to be the two of our most powerful ones. They both failed. If they want to find someone stronger than them, I am afraid they won't be able to find them."

"Then I can't do anything, I can't go there myself!"

Diao Peng looked at him meaningfully and didn't speak.

Situ Ce said coldly: "Look at what I do, say what I have and let go of what I have!"

"Yes, brother," Diao Peng said carefully, "I think, brother is very good at Taoism. Can you use Taoism to drive away ghosts and kill Xiao Heng, and look for our two killers at the same time. If you can save them, you can rescue them. If not, kill them together. Isn't this better than a killer?"
