"Who?" Sima Xin frowned and asked repeatedly, "Who are you?"
"I was the former housekeeper of the Qiu Mansion," the old man said. "He knew very well what was going on in the Qiu Mansion at that time!"
While speaking, he deliberately glanced at Qiu Batian, with severity and resentment in his eyes.
"ah……"
Qiu Batian was startled again, and his body started to tremble uncontrollably.
It seems that he never dreamed that this person would appear here.
"You just said..." Sima Xin narrowed his eyes and asked cautiously, "Are you...a witness? What kind of witness?"
"Sir," Butler Qiu said with a fist in his hand, "Ten years ago, I witnessed with my own eyes the entire process of Qiu Batian leading his men to kill Pan Longshan's family of five, and I am the witness!"
ah!?
Hearing this, there was another sound of surprise at the scene.
He quickly winked at his subordinates and said at the same time: "Okay, in that case, this case can be tried for a first time! Come on..."
"Impossible!" Qiu Batian quickly retorted, "It's impossible. At that time, I had already broken your leg. You..."
“Back then,” Butler Qiu continued, “when Old Mrs. Qiu was alive, he could still control Qiu Zhennong, but once Mr. Qiu left, no one could control this prodigal son!
"Arrogant, extravagant and trouble-making, Mr. Qiu has almost lost all the wealth he accumulated!
"In order to make up for the shortfall, he actually hired a gang of gangsters to rob homes, humiliate the neighbors, and do evil things!
"Hey, what are you doing standing still?" Upon seeing this, Cai Jin quickly waved to the guards, urging them to move faster.
The sound was crisp and clear, and you could hear the feeling of blood flowing out.
"I never imagined that at that time, Qiu Zhennong was already suspicious of me and had already sent people to spy on me.
Sima Xin narrowed his eyes again, but this time, a cold light flashed through his eyes.
Um?
Sima Xin's words immediately aroused people's alert, and they all looked over.
"Fortunately, he didn't know that I witnessed the whole process of their murder. Otherwise, it would not only have broken my legs..."
"Yes," Pan Wending quickly agreed, "The facts couldn't be clearer. Please make the decision for the people!"
"Slap me, slap me!" Sima Xin shouted loudly, "Slap him twenty times first! Quick!"
"To be honest, I stand up not only to avenge the Pan Longshan family who died tragically, but I also want to seek justice for the two legs that were maimed!"
As he said that, he glared at Qiu Batian and said angrily: "Isn't that right? Master Qiu?"
What a bad idiot!
Sima Xin cursed in his heart, what you just said is clearly an admission that you are a murderer!
"Bold!" Finally, Sima Xin showed his fox tail and shouted angrily, "I am the chief judge, do you need you to teach me how to judge a case?"
Wow...
The officers agreed and immediately stepped forward to pull Pan Wending, Butler Qiu, Qiu Batian and others away.
"slow!"
"Shut up!" Sima Xin was so furious that he picked up the gavel and threw it directly on Qiu Batian's face.
"I learned the news. On the one hand, I didn't want to see Pan Longshan's family destroyed, and on the other hand, I didn't want Qiu Zhennong to commit too many sins, so I notified Pan Longshan in advance and asked him to take a smaller path.
Unexpectedly, someone was afraid that Pan Wending would speak nonsense, so he blocked his mouth.
Snap!
Sima Xin was worthy of his military background, his strength and accuracy were perfect, and he immediately beat Qiu Batian until his face was bruised and his nose was bleeding.
"No, sir," Butler Qiu puffed up his chest and said forcefully, "I can prove that my testimony is valid, because the people who killed Pan Longshan's family were not only Qiu Zhennong but also several of his men.
Sima Xin's words were indeed devastating enough, because from beginning to end, there was only the testimony of Butler Qiu, which was not effective enough.
"Alas," Sima Xin sighed and said, "I am telling you the truth. I am determined to avenge you, but... there is only the testimony of such a person, and it is a person who has a broken leg with Qiu Zhennong.
How can this testimony be valid?"
"However, he heard from somewhere that Pan Longshan had great connections in the capital and was going there to file a complaint against him. So, he did nothing and even sent people to kill Pan Longshan's entire family.
Bang bang bang...
"yes!"
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Sima Xin raised his arm and wanted to slap the gavel, but found that the given gavel was used to hit people before and was still being thrown underneath.
oops……
"Ah?" After this person heard this, he was immediately frightened out of his wits. He quickly shook his body and denied, "No, no, he is talking nonsense, without me, without me, oh no, oh... we didn't do it at all.
Let’s get through it…”
"When I found the person watching, I realized something was wrong, so I rushed to the trail again, but this time it was too late.
People will only think that Butler Qiu's testimony is a lie.
"If you two didn't communicate in advance, wouldn't it be... not convincing?"
If he and Pan Wending conspired to confess, it would be even more unconvincing.
"Old man," he thought for a while and said, "it is indeed rare for you to come forward and identify Qiu Zhennong, but... isn't the timing of your coming forward a bit too coincidental?"
"Master Pan is absolutely right," he said seriously, "Qiu Zhennong saw that Zuixianju's business was booming, so he used the most despicable means to forcefully occupy it and drive the Pan family out of Yanping County.
At this time, his men had already picked up the gavel, and Si Maxin quickly slapped it hard and said: "Take all the people related to this case into the South Prison. I will interrogate them carefully and clarify the case!"
At this moment, Qiu Batian's face had been beaten all over and was as swollen as a pig's head. How could he still speak? He could only keep shaking his head in denial.
"Huh? Isn't that right?" Pan Wending reacted quickly and shouted loudly, "Sir, the murderer is here. Don't you know everything after the first trial? Why do you want to withdraw?"
After listening to Butler Qiu's narration, the scene fell into a brief silence. Everyone imagined the bloody killing in their minds, and the more they thought about it, the more they shuddered.
"Look," Sima Xin said again, "Ten years have passed, and you haven't thought about reporting to the official for ten years. Why did Pan Wending file a complaint today, and you showed up?
"I'm afraid he beat me to death and fed him to the dogs before I even found the gate of the yamen.
"But I didn't expect that Qiu Batian would come back so quickly. In the end, I... still couldn't escape his clutches..." He pointed to his disabled legs, "That's it, he broke my legs."
, drive me out of the Qiu family.
"No, you can't do this..." Pan Wending struggled hard and shouted loudly, "I protest, I demand to be interrogated in court, I can't withdraw, wuwuwu..."
"These men are Kuai Peng, Long Ersheng, Li Sanjie, and Qiu Bin." As he said, he pointed to someone behind Qiu Batian, "Well, this person is Kuai Peng, you can ask him
ah!"
Sima Xin's face had turned eggplant color, and he cursed secretly, Qiu Batian is a bunch of mentally retarded people? They won't even admit it.
"Sir," Butler Qiu said excitedly with his eyes widened, "Qiu Zhennong is perverse, violent, and powerful. I am just a crippled old beggar. How can I sue him?
"Yes!" Butler Qiu also realized that something was wrong. "As long as you interrogate Kuai Peng, you will know whether I lied. Why...why do you still need to interrogate me?"
"Um……"
"When I arrived," Butler Qiu's lips trembled, he pointed at Qiu Batian excitedly, "I just happened to see Qiu Batian and several killers killing Pan Longshan's family. The scene was horrific!
"At that moment, I was also frightened!" Butler Qiu said, "I quickly fled back to Qiu Mansion before they noticed me. I knew I could no longer stay there, so I packed my luggage overnight and prepared to escape.
Unexpectedly, when the two were about to be pulled out of the courtroom, another person in the crowd stood up.
The scene was in an uproar and people were talking a lot.
"Woo... Wuwu..." Looking at Pan Wending again, he was already crying, lying on the ground and shouting, "It's really... the sky has eyes, the sky has eyes, wuwu..."
Things were even worse at Butler Qiu's house. His skateboard was kicked away by someone and he was dragged out of the hall like a dead dog. The old man also wanted to protest, but someone came up and punched him, knocking him unconscious...
However, even though he was angry, he had no choice but to come with a mission.
"I heard that the public trial of Qiu Zhennong was going to be held today, so I rushed over to listen. Unexpectedly, I happened to hear you talking about the murder of Pan Longshan's family, so I came forward to testify!
"I...I have been waiting for this opportunity for ten years!
After giving the order, a guard immediately came forward and slapped Qiu Batian directly.
"You can't withdraw from the court until the case is over!" The man's chest heaved violently, and he shouted with great excitement, "Come here, please leave the relevant criminals to me, I want to have them tried in court!!!"
ah?
What?
Everyone looked quickly and couldn't help but be shocked, but saw that the person who said this was none other than the magistrate of Yanping County - Song Zhili!!!

Happy New Year and good luck. Lao Kuang wishes all the financial financiers a prosperous future and prosperity every day!!!
