053 Cross-examination

Song Chen smiled and said nothing more.

By that time, they would naturally believe that she was not trying to comfort her.

After leaving Manjiang's house, Song Chen quickly ran towards his own house. It was getting dark outside, and he saw many torches burning at the construction site of their new house. He thought that official officials must have arrived.

When she arrived, officials were inspecting the scene and searching for evidence.

The final conclusion reached was the same as their previous analysis, that the load-bearing point was artificially destroyed, but the specific person who did it still needs to continue to find evidence.

Song Chen understood what the official meant. As long as he couldn't find any evidence, there would be no results.

Uncle Manjiang was injured in vain, and they still had to be on guard against that person before he struck again.

These official servants are not official servants at all, they are simply vampires!

Money had already been spent once on the way to invite them here, and now it was clear that they wanted money again.

She doesn't want to give it, and she won't give it. At worst, she will find someone to pay for it with blood!

Maybe he could see something about Song Chen's thoughts. The official officer led by Zhuang Bosong called aside, "Brother the official officer?"

"Huh? What, you don't accept it?" The officer looked at Zhuang Bosong provocatively, obviously unhappy because of his tone.

But he didn't know that he was unhappy later. He saw Zhuang Bosong change his face quickly, "If you don't give me an explanation for what happened today, you won't be able to wear real skin again!"

Zhuang Bosong's voice was very soft, but his tone was frightening.

The officer subconsciously wanted to draw the sword, but Zhuang Bosong was one step ahead of him and pressed down on his hand without moving the handle of the sword at all.

However, in the eyes of other people, the actions of the two of them were just Zhuang Bosong trying to please them.

The officer who was held down and unable to move had countless thoughts flashing through his mind, "You, who are you? How dare you treat an officer like this? Aren't you afraid of going to jail?"

"Prison?" Zhuang Bosong sneered, "I am responsible for designing all the prisons in Da Rong. What do I have to be afraid of?"

The official's body stiffened suddenly. Others would not dare to make such nonsense.

Knowing that he had offended the noble man this time, his attitude immediately made a 180-degree turn.

"My lord, please calm down, calm down. I have offended you a lot in the past and I hope you will forgive me. We will handle this matter how you want us to deal with it today."

"Okay, remember what you said." Zhuang Bosong patted his shoulder and walked towards Song Chen with a smile.

The official's face no longer looked like I am the best in the world.

"Mr. Zhuang, are you showing off?" Song Chen was not one of those villagers who knew nothing.

"Why do you think you, a little girl, are so smart?" Zhuang Bosong knew he couldn't deceive her.

"I think this was probably done by someone who has a problem with you. Think about whether there is anyone suspicious and just ask these officials to find him."

Zhuang Bosong was also a little ashamed of this matter. Everyone was on the construction site, but someone still took advantage of the loophole.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhuang." Song Chen thanked him sincerely.

During this period of time with Zhuang Bosong, she had already changed her previous view of him. Every time he asked about questions that he didn't understand on the drawings, Song Chen explained them to him in detail, and even gave him advice on other aspects.

Give some solid advice.

This incident also made her realize more clearly that in this era, the pastoral life she had imagined before must only be achieved if she was strong enough.

"This is what I should do, and I was negligent in this matter."

"No, Mr. Zhuang, there is no need to think too much, this matter is just for me." Song Chen sneered.

Uncle Zhuang was relieved, "So you already have someone to suspect?"

Song Chen nodded, "Please also ask Mr. Zhuang to help the officials knock on doors door to door to investigate, starting from the center of the village."

Village center?

Zhuang Bosong has been in Beiguan Village for a few days, but his years of habit have allowed him to understand the layout of the village clearly, and he also knows who lives in the center of the village.

"Is it related to the Song family over there?" Zhuang Bosong asked tentatively.

"Nine times out of ten, it's them. The only ones who have really had a grudge against us in Beiguan Village are them and the Widow Zhou from last time. But I still know a little about Widow Zhou. She doesn't have the guts, but they can't tell.

Already."

Although he said this, Song Chen had already determined in his heart that it was the old Song family who had done this. Killing his own granddaughter and poisoning the banquet were all enough to show that they had lost their humanity.

This time, she will never let them go!

With Zhuang Bosong's threat and Song Chen's money stuffed into him, the officials cooperated very well with Song Chen's plan. Several men with fierce looks held up torches and began to interrogate house to house from the center of the village.

The old Song family lived in the center of the village. The noise outside was so loud that after being interrogated, the villagers closed their doors in fear and never made a sound again.

But it seems that the whole Beiguan Village can hear the sound of officials knocking on the door.

After questioning another family, several officials came to the door of Lao Song's house and surrounded it tightly. Through the lattice windows, the people of Lao Song's house were frightened to death by the battle outside.

Mrs. Song Zhou lowered her voice and leaned into Old Man Song's ear, "Old man, is it possible that that dead girl really died there?"

The village is such a big place, everyone knows what happened to Song Chen's family, but the people in the village don't know exactly whether anyone was hurt or what the extent of the injuries was.

Old Man Song frowned like a fly, and looked outside with a pair of turbid yellow eyes through the small grid. He also did not dare to speak too loudly, "You have been hanging around outside all day long, and you haven't found out anything?"

Mrs. Song Zhou choked and did not dare to answer the question.

But at this time, Mrs. Song Zhou was secretly happy in her heart. She let that dead girl make money and did not show respect to their elders. She hid all her money for herself. Now God must give her retribution.

It is most unlucky to build a new house and see it exposed to blood. They will never have a happy life after living in it.

There are many people in the old Song family who have the same ideas as the Song Zhou family, but there are also people who have different ideas.

For example, Song Laosi’s widow and orphan.

Boss Song’s wife.

Compared to the worried mood of the people in the fourth room of Old Song's family, the people in Old Song's family are now trembling with fear.

"Open the door, open the door quickly."

An official came forward and slapped the door of Old Song's house vigorously. This sound was especially abrupt at night. Several families who had been knocked on the door before heard this sound, and they felt a little scared.

Song Zhou, who was still talking quietly, was frightened by the voice and instinctively took a few steps back.

Old Man Song gave her a sideways glance, "I usually run faster than anyone else to join in the fun, but now I know how to hold back!"

"Open the door, open the door quickly, or we will kick the door down if you don't!" The official's voice came from outside again.

Old Man Song listened around, but there was no sound.

At this time, in such a big Song family, there is no one who can take charge!

After opening the door, Old Man Song ran out quickly with a slightly hunched back, and opened the courtyard door just in time when the official knocked on the door for the third time. His originally gloomy face was full of flattery and flattery.

"My lord, I'm really sorry. My ears are hard to use as I get older. I've kept you waiting for so long."

"Do you know what happened in your village today? How many people are there in your family? Has anyone behaved abnormally these past two days?" The leading official asked several questions in succession with a cold face and glare.

Old Man Song nodded and bowed in response, "Go back to the official, there are seventeen people in our family, and no one behaves abnormally."

"Really?" The official looked at him sideways, "I heard that in Beiguan Village, your family has the worst relationship with the family that had the accident. Speaking of which, you should also be the most suspect."

"My lord, my lord, please don't listen to those words." Old Man Song waved his hands repeatedly, "Our two families have a grudge, but after all, Song Dashan is also my biological flesh and blood. That thing is too shameful. We

It’s impossible to make it.”

Although Old Man Song didn't think so, he really couldn't do it.

In his heart, he still felt that Song Dashan was just letting go of his anger, and he would be fine after a while. Once his big house was built, would it be impossible for him, a father, to live there for two days?

The officer looked at him again, as if thinking about the truth or falsehood of his words.

At this moment, someone secretly poked him behind him, and he understood.

"It's a serious matter, so we'd better call everyone in your family. We want to question them one by one."

Old Man Song did not dare to say anything, "Master, please wait a moment, I will call you right away."

After a while, everyone in the old Song family was called out, and they stood in the yard.

The younger children tried their best to hide behind their parents, while the older ones lowered their heads and did not dare to look at anyone. After all, this was the first time they had seen an official at this age.

The official looked around at everyone in the Old Song family. Whoever his eyes fell on would shrink subconsciously, as if they had been burned by something.

"Old man, didn't you say there are seventeen people in your family? Why are there only fifteen people here, and there are two more people?"

Old Man Song quickly looked at the family members behind him. Sure enough, besides Song Qingyun, there was one missing. Old Man Song felt a thump in his heart and had a bad feeling.

But he didn't have time to think about anything else at the moment, so he just gave a reason.

"Going back to the official, I have a sixth child who is studying at a school in town, and an elder. The elder should have gone to town to visit him."

His words still surprised the official. He obviously didn't expect that there were scholars in this family. We have to be more careful with scholars these days. Who knows what will happen in the future.

"Families that can support scholars will probably not do anything harmful to nature, so let's just leave them all."

The official waved his hand, and the old Song family members ran away faster than anything else. Old Song was left alone in the yard to see the official off.

But as soon as the official took two steps out, Song Chen came in from the outside carrying a person. As soon as his hand loosened, the person was left at the feet of the official.

"They have done all kinds of things that are harmful to nature. It is too early for me to draw this conclusion!"
