Chapter 46 Suspicion (1)
Zhao Rong was by his side, observing his words and expressions, waiting for the servants to go, and said, "I guess Wang Yuanwai is familiar with Wu Youcai, the shopkeeper of the Wuwei Store?"
Wang Yuanwai nodded and said, "Why are you both fellow villagers in the countryside? You don't want to leave like this. How could he die in Yunhu Pond? There is no other house here, only the Flower Hall. Could it be that he wanted to come to see me and unfortunately fell into the water?"
Zhao Rong said, "He must have something to do when he comes to see you. After the Liu family incident, the official sent a toll to Wuwei Shop to find Wu Youcai. Because there were rumors in the market, he seemed to have an affair with the Liu family. The yamen runners arrived at Wuwei Shop, but they didn't see Wu Youcai. The guy said that he went out early and had not returned home yet. He didn't expect that he was dead."
Wang Yuanwai said in surprise: "So, he came early in the morning with the intention of seeing me, but he didn't know what to do?"
Zhao Rong tentatively said: "Did the king don't know the truth?"
Wang Yuanwai said in surprise: "I don't know what? Could it be related to the murder of Liu?"
Zhao Rong nodded slightly and said, "That's right. Someone once saw that Liu had visited the Wuwei Shop last night. And he could hear the quarrel between men and women. This morning, Liu was killed. How could Wu Youcai get rid of the relationship?"
Wang Yuanwai was surprised and said, "In my opinion, is Wu Youcai the real murderer of killing Liu?"
Zhao Rong said with a slight slightest view, "From the current situation, he is indeed the most suspicious. But there is a little bit unknown, how could he die before the Flower Hall?"
The king said, "I guess after the matter was revealed, he hurriedly fled, either asking me to borrow some silver for him, or begging me to find a shelter for him."
The king called the servant and asked, "Have you ever seen the shopkeeper Wu Youcai?"
A servant replied, "The villain has been in the flower hall and has not seen anyone visit."
The other servants also said the same.
Zhao Rong said: "I guess he has no intention of asking for you, only his desire to die."
Captain Xing said, "In this way, he died of suicide because of his crime." Zhao Rong nodded slightly and stopped talking.
Zhao Rong bid farewell to Wang Yuanwai, left the flower hall, and returned to the government office.
The news of Wu Youcai's death has long been spread, and many people say it differently, and most people think that Wu Youcai is planning to murder the real murderer of Liu.
After dinner, Zhao Rong didn't even return to the Duke's Mansion, so he summoned the head of the head Xing, Wei Que and Master Song to handle the case. Seeing that tomorrow was the deadline, if the murderer was not found for a long time, I was afraid that Tie Xuan would find it difficult to get a job.
Two people died in Dongcheng for a moment, and it was a hot topic and people were panicked. The two families each handled the funeral of the dead, and the villagers of the village became busy.
According to the customs of Jinling, when one person dies, all families come to help with the cooking, and there is no need to call for requests. Even if the details of the funeral are in charge of the orders and arrangements.
Moreover, the neighbors are very lively and gather to watch it.
Zhao Rong asked Wei Que and others what he had to think about the case. Captain Xing quickly said, "The truth of the case is clear, and the real murderer must be Wu Youcai. He colluded with Liu and became a traitor, and he had the intention of killing for some reason. Later, the matter was exposed, so he ran away in a hurry, and he was sure that he could not escape the law of nature, so he jumped into the water and committed suicide. The matter was clear and there was no other objection." Master Song also nodded repeatedly.
Wei Que said disdainfully, "Wu Youcai is dead, and there is no evidence of death. How could he know that he is the real murderer? No one has ever seen it. According to my conjecture, Liucheng is the most suspicious."
Captain Xing said: "What are the opinions of Brother Wei? Why do you think Liu Cheng is suspicious?"
Wei Que said: "There is no mud on the Liu's shoes and socks. It can be seen that he has not been away for a long time, so he must have been killed at home."
Captain Xing was shocked and said, "In your opinion, Wu Youcai was also killed by Liu Cheng?"
Wei Que nodded and said, "It is very likely. Liu Cheng realized that his sister had sex with Wu Youcai. In addition, Liu did not give him money, so he became determined to kill Liu, and then blamed Wu Youcai. After the plan was successful, he created the illusion that Wu Youcai committed suicide due to fear of crime. It was really seamless."
Master Song frowned and said, "In this way, what the guy said to the master must have been in advance. The sound of the fight that Feng Er heard was the sound of the murder."
Captain Xing said: "If he is the real murderer, he should be sentenced as soon as possible."
Wei Que said: "Without real evidence, how can we be sentenced at will?"
Master Song glanced at Wei Que and said, "Even if there is no evidence, he is the biggest suspicion. He should make a slap and ask him to confess carefully."
The three of them talked and discussed the case.
Only Zhao Rong did not say a word and pondered at Zhu.
After the three of them said that, they turned to look at Zhao Rong.
Captain Xing whispered: "What theory do you have?"
Zhao Rong smiled slightly and said, "What you said is very much, Liucheng is indeed suspicious. He sneaked back in secret, and he was acting in a murderous way. He did something at night. No one knew about the situation except the dead. Even if he did not commit murder of Liu, no one believed it. It's a pity that you didn't pay attention to others."
The three of them said in surprise: "Others? Is there someone else in the real murderer?"
Zhao Rong said: "We all know Liucheng, Wu Youcai and others. However, this person has no sign of being involved in this case. If you have a god three feet tall, how can you let him be free and carefree from the laws of heaven?"
Captain Xing said in surprise: "Who is the Lord referring to?"
Zhao Rong said indifferently: "The king is a great charity!"
"Monster Wang? Why is it him?" Captain Xing said strangely.
Wei Que said: "Why do you doubt Wang Yuanwai?"
Zhao Rong said: "After thinking about it, Wang Yuanwai seems to have nothing to do with this case. We still don't understand the reason for the truth, but it will be revealed in the end."
Captain Xing said: "The Lord suspected that Wang Yuanwai was because Wu Youcai died in the Yunhu pond? However, the villain had carefully investigated the body, and Wu Youcai did die of drowning. How do you say he should kill him?"
Zhao Rong said: "You can go to Wuwei Shop to find Wu Youcai. What did the guy in the shop say?"
Captain Xing said: "He only said that the shopkeeper went out early in the morning and there was nothing else."
Zhao Rong smiled indifferently and said, "Have he ever said that Wu Youcai wore a leather hat when he went out?"
Captain Xing recalled and said repeatedly: "That's right, it's right. But what is this related to Wang Yuanwai?" Zhao Rong said: "At the edge of Yunhu Lake, did you look at Wu Youcai's body and around him? Did you ever see that leather hat?"
Captain Xing recalled: "When you think about it carefully, you really haven't seen it."
Master Song disagreed and said, "Wu Youcai will definitely struggle randomly when he falls into the water. The leather hat will definitely sink to the bottom of the water. How can you see it on the shore?"
Zhao Rong nodded and said, "I am beside the pond, and I think so. However, in the evening pavilion of the King's Waihua Hall, I suddenly saw a black object in the bottom of the pool. If I had never guessed it wrong, the black object must be Wu Youcai's leather hat."
Captain Xing said in surprise: "The Wang family's subordinate said that Wu Youcai had never been to the Flower Hall. If so, they must be lying."
Zhao Rong said: "That's right. Wu Youcai must have been to Huatang, and he also died in Huatang."
Captain Xing suddenly realized and said, "Wu Youcai may have been pressed into the water by him and suffocated to death. Therefore, he investigated the body and drowned. He didn't expect that the leather cap would sink to the bottom of the water. When he moved the body to the pond, he did not notice it. He didn't expect that the adults could see it clearly and found a suspicion at a glance."
Wei Que said: "Since that's the case, we can detain the king tomorrow and ask what's going on." The other two agreed.
Zhao Rong shook his head and said, "He may not be willing to admit it truthfully, and we have no other evidence. Even if it is him, he will make a lot of quibbling. Why is the leather hat in the bottom of the pool? He will definitely not know. Perhaps it was the murderer who intended to blame Wang Yuanwai after he murdered Wu Youcai, avoided the eyes of the servants, and deliberately threw the leather hat into the bottom of the water. It is unknown whether you still remember the sachet?"
After saying that, he took it out of his sleeve and showed it to Captain Xing and others.
Wei Que said suspiciously: "Is this sachet a thing of the king's outer space?"
Zhao Rong said: "I have sniffed the sachet, and the tea smells in it, which must be used to store tea. The tea tastes extraordinary, and it is the tea I drank in Wang Yuanwaihuatang today."
Captain Xing said: "If you say this, the real murderer must be Wang Yuanwai."
Captain Xing said, "If so, how should we start?"
Zhao Rong said: "Sunzi said: Wait for the turmoil with silence. He also said: Wait for the turmoil with ease. We can wait for the change."
The three of them said yes, and then discussed it carefully, and then went back to rest. However, all three of them sighed: This Lord Zhao seems to be a master of case solving. What kind of playboy must be misunderstood by the world.
However, Zhao Rong did not expect that in this way, he would establish a good image for himself.
