Wang Zhi was left speechless by Fang Yingwu. She opened and closed her mouth, closed and opened it again. In the end, she could only lament that it was a mistake to reason with Fang Yingwu!
She smashed several large thick books on Fang Yingwu, "Here! This is the so-called clue you want. Three hundred investigators were sent out, and thousands of people were questioned before and after, and only this was found.
A bunch of trivial stuff."
The content in the booklet is a simple record of the conversations that Dongchang Fanzi had with the person he was questioning when he went to the southeastern district of the capital to pursue rumors. There are probably thousands more scattered here and there.
"This is not trivial..." Fang Yingwu looked at it seriously, flipping through page after page without missing a single item, from afternoon to dusk in the evening.
Wang Zhi was bored while waiting, and had gone out to do other things. When she came back here, she saw that Fang Yingwu was still almost finished, so she couldn't help but ask: "It's difficult to find out the source of rumors.
I haven’t seen anyone successfully accomplish this in so many years. The most they can do is make some specious scapegoats. What can you see from these brochures?"
Fang Yingwu frowned thoughtfully and replied casually: "This kind of rumor about the examination hall is only prevalent among candidates going for the examination. The total number of people is only a few thousand, and most of them are concentrated in the southeast of the capital near Gongyuan. So.
This is actually a very limited sample range, and it may not be impossible to find the source of the rumor."
Wang Zhi couldn't understand what Fang Yingwu wanted to express, but she still knew how to complain: "That's completely clueless. Do you want to figure it out again?"
"That's because you don't understand the method!" Fang Yingwu finally read several large brochures, stood up and stretched his numb legs a few times, and unknowingly studied all afternoon.
As the head of Dongchang's secret service, Wang Zhi heard about this method and immediately asked with great interest: "What method do you have?"
Fang Yingwu said eloquently: "The first is the method of big data! Summarize from enough clues and find the rules! Among thousands of seemingly chaotic clues, even if only a dozen of them point to one place, then
This is a very noteworthy phenomenon!
The second is the theory of six degrees. The distance between any two people in the world is no more than six people. From the person who heard the rumor to the source of the rumor, there is no more than six levels."
Wang Zhiru was completely confused as she listened to the book. Fang Yingwu seemed to understand every word in his words, but the combination was completely incomprehensible. Finally, he asked weakly: "To be more specific, what should I do this time?"
"
"I looked through it and found that the reason why Juzi knew about the rumors was not only from other candidates, but also mostly from the shopkeeper. This is a trend worthy of attention.
Then you Dongchang fans continued to ask the shopkeepers and shopkeepers about the sources of the rumors, and the answers were very varied. The sources were various, and there were thousands of them in total. In the thousands of mostly different backgrounds, there were twenty or thirty questions and answers.
The sources mentioned are close or similar, and this is the special feature that deserves our most attention!
Some of these close or similar questions and answers are said to be heard from the county government officials, some are said to be heard from the county government officials, and some are said to be heard from the relatives of the county government officials. In short, they all revolve around the county government officials.
.”
"County government office? From Daxing County?" Wang Zhi interrupted and asked. At this time, she somehow remembered Youzhi County of Daxing County, who framed Fang Yingwu once when he went to the palace to clear snow. As for the starter, Youzhi County's
The motivation is really full.
"The candidates are all gathered in Dongcheng. Of course this county government refers to Daxing County. Could it also be our Wanping County?" Fang Yingwu gradually became more confident, "So I concluded based on this that the rumor came from the Daxing County government office! As for the motive,
You should have guessed it!
And I have more definite circumstantial evidence! This time the rumor is that our Wanping County is responsible for the errands of the Gongyuan and cooperates with my father. And Daxing County is also responsible for the same errands as Wanping County, so the Daxing County Government Office
Which one is more likely to use this to associate rumors, others may not think of it for a while."
Wang Zhi had no choice but to be impressed by this and sighed: "If we follow your method of investigation, what else in the world will not be discovered?"
Fang Yingwu shook his head and said: "This time is also a special case, as I said before. This is in a limited sample, and it only takes 300 people to find the needle in the haystack to get the results. If the sample is expanded to the entire capital, there will be few
Tens of thousands of people cannot achieve this effect. If we look at the whole world, we would only need millions of people."
Wang Zhi was still in a state of shock. This was usually the case for a person who didn't read much and encountered long-winded theories. After that, she subconsciously asked, "What should I do next?"
Fang Yingwu laughed a few times, "You are the head of the factory guard, but you ask me what I should do? It's a joke! Indiscriminate arrest of criminals, torture, and beatings into submission, aren't these the specialties of your factory guards?
?
It's very simple. You go to the county government office in Daxing County, capture dozens of government officials, clerks, and aides from the county magistrate, etc., and bring them into the East Factory. Ask about the situation if there is any situation, and ask about the situation even if there is no situation!"
Wang Zhi patted her face in annoyance. How could she ask such an embarrassing question? Then she regained her confidence and said, "Okay! I have my own idea on what to do next!"
This time, Fang Yingwu was confused, "What ideas can you have?"
Wang Zhi replied: "First hold your troops still and not make any moves. When the court gets really excited and accuses me again and again, then with thunderous force, I go to Daxing County Yamen to arrest people! Then find out the truth of the rumors, and use this to get back the favor in the court."
Place!"
"Who did you learn this from?" Fang Yingwu muttered. Wang Zhi smiled proudly, "Those who are close to Zhu are red! Do you think we should find a few more people to help fan the flames in the court first?"
Fang Yingwu laughed and scolded: "I think you are a liar! This is an investigation and a rumor. The sooner you clarify it, the better! There is no reason to delay deliberately! The longer you delay, the worse it is!"
Even so, Eunuch Wang, who was deeply influenced by someone's bad taste, deliberately delayed it for two days, but still secretly captured two people from the Daxing County government office without anyone noticing. After the torture, he felt more confident, and they were not alarmed yet.
other people.
In the past two days, someone actually went to court and said that Fang Qingzhi was working as an examiner in the Gongyuan, while Fang Yingwu was outside on errands for the Gongyuan. The father and son lived in separate places, which was indeed easy to attract suspicion. The court should take the initiative to avoid suspicion and replace it with others.
A fellow examiner.
After Fang Yingwu learned the news from Wang Zhi, he smiled bitterly and said, "If there is any slight disturbance, all kinds of monsters and ghosts will come out. Why don't these people have a better memory?"
