In the main courtyard of Ji Ran's residence, there were many snacks, snacks and fruits placed on the stone table in the pavilion. Li Yu, who looked tired, just lay down and planned to take a rest. After hearing what Tang Ji said, he couldn't help but
He raised his head suddenly, thinking that he was tired of life in Kyoto, and added: "No, it will be boring for me to stay here alone after you leave. Didn't the Yang family be destroyed by you? Or are you again?
If you have any new worries, tell me and I might be able to help you out!"
Tang Ji glanced at him: "I'm just going back, it's not like I won't come back."
If he really wants to resign and return to Huaizhou, Ninghuang probably won't be able to pass the test, let alone Li Yu.
Hearing this, Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked: "What are you going back for?"
Tang Ji pursed his lips. There were too many things involved in the past, and further investigation might put him in danger, so the fewer people who know about it, the better. This can also be regarded as protection for Li Yu. He touched it
Bi Tou said casually: "Sister Yue's letter mentioned a lot of problems that have arisen at Jiran Bookstore in Huaizhou. Let's go back and solve them. By the way, we can also pay homage to Mr. Chen and the old man from Niujia Village."
"When are we leaving?" Li Yu picked up a piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth.
Tang Ji took a sip of tea and looked at Jiang Ran, who was having fun with Jiu'er in the long corridor in the distance: "Autumn hunting is after the Mid-Autumn Festival, right?"
Li Yu nodded and replied: "Well, according to the usual practice, it should be held for five to seven days. However, you have to pay attention to safety if you want to return to Huaizhou. Li Qin and Li Xian have suffered a lot from you. They don't
I will miss this opportunity."
"I will make arrangements, don't worry." Tang Ji replied.
After hearing what he said, Li Yu didn't ask any more questions and lay down on the table again, sighing with a dull look in his eyes.
"Alas~"
Tang Ji turned to look at him, his eyebrows raised slightly. It was rare to see this heartless guy so tired, and he asked doubtfully: "What's the matter? Are you having a conflict with Song Yao again?"
Li Yu shook his head, with a look of helplessness on his face, and explained: "It's a case in Dali Temple. The wife of Mr. Yuan of the Ministry of War was raped and killed seven days ago, and the child was also blinded in both eyes and ears. After
The Ministry of Criminal Justice investigated and found two people who were suspected, but they refused to plead guilty. The case was transferred to Dali Temple yesterday and I was in charge of it. As a result, there is no clue at all now."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yu suddenly thought of something and looked up at Tang Ji: "I remember you seem to know how to interrogate. How about coming to Dali Temple at noon tomorrow?"
He clearly remembered that when he was in Huaizhou, the assassin who assassinated Tang Ji was interrogated by Song Xiao for most of the day but did not confess. As a result, Tang Ji took action and subdued him in less than half an hour. Thinking of this, he felt that he
Found hope.
"I won't take a bath tomorrow." Tang Ji replied calmly.
Li Yu scratched his head and couldn't help asking: "Why are you taking a break again?"
Tang Ji rolled his eyes. Many officials in the imperial court chose to give up their day off for the sake of political performance. They wished to be noticed by Emperor Ning, so that they would have the opportunity to be promoted. But he was different. Since the rule was to rest every five days, then
He can lie down without curling up.
He glanced at the cold snacks on the table and shouted loudly: "Jiu'er, come and get rid of these snacks, otherwise they won't taste good when they get cold."
"Coming!" The little girl standing far away heard the voice and ran over.
Tang Ji was about to ask if dinner was ready, but when he saw Li Yu's expectant eyes, he sighed helplessly: "Then please tell me in detail."
"Okay!" Li Yu cheered up, sat up, grabbed a bunch of rice cakes from the bamboo tube in front of Jiu'er, took a bite and said: "Seven days ago, Mrs. Yuan took her children out in the morning, saying she was going to Xicheng.
Mrs. Chen from the cloth shop gathered together, but never came back. Master Yuan found something unusual after leaving the office, and immediately found Mrs. Chen. As a result, Mrs. Chen said that she had not seen Mrs. Yuan, and Master Yuan reported the case.
They quickly found Mrs. Yuan in a dilapidated house in Xicheng. She was hung on the beam by a piece of white silk, and... she had no clothes on. After tracing, the Criminal Department found two people, one of whom was a gangster who often
He also had a weird habit of teasing women, specifically picking married women. Someone saw him stalking Mrs. Chen, and he admitted it during subsequent interrogations. The other person was a businessman, and he couldn't be involved in the first place, but he was the one in that yard.
In his original home, the Criminal Department found that the yard was originally locked, but there was no sign of man-made door lock damage, so they summoned him for questioning. As a result, he said that the key had been lost half a year ago, but someone had seen it a month ago.
He went back, and the Ministry of Punishment thought there was a problem, so they kept him here."
After listening, Jiu'er blinked and said, "I feel like that little gangster. As long as he knows a little bit of martial arts, he can fly directly into the yard without having to go through the gate."
Tang Ji touched his chin and thought for a while, then replied: "Who do you think it is?"
Li Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Jiu'er: "The little girl and I have similar ideas. I've met both of those two people. The businessman seems quite honest. Maybe he didn't lock the door when he left last time."
Jiang Ran blinked her beautiful eyes, wanting to hear Tang Ji's analysis.
Tang Ji asked, "Have you checked the families and backgrounds of those two people?"
Li Yu nodded slightly and recalled: "That local gangster came from another state capital, and his background is still under investigation, but this guy has done a lot of sneaky things. You can find many files related to him in the Taiping County Yamen.
, the most serious one was cutting off someone's arm, and he also worked for the Yang family. As for the businessman, who was from Kyoto, he lost his mother when he was young. His father was a gambler, and he later died of alcoholism and a fall.
I learned business from my relatives at home, and I have two small shops in Xicheng, and the business is pretty good."
After a while, when Tang Ji didn't speak, he murmured: "What can you ask me about? I will take you to see them another day and torture them using your special interrogation method."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Tang Ji beside him spoke: "It should be that businessman."
Li Yu looked puzzled and asked: "Why?"
"Crime does not distinguish between honest and dishonest people. Don't bring your own subjective feelings into it. Since the door lock has no trace of being damaged, and the businessman is the only one who holds the key, since the suspicion cannot be eliminated, then he is the most powerful person.
As for the motive of a person who may have committed a crime, from the perspective of criminal psychology, he is not short of money, has not known Mrs. Yuan before, has no disputes, is not motivated by money, and is not motivated by sex, so he can only do it temporarily or by being stimulated.
The things that irritated him..." After Tang Ji carefully analyzed it, he suddenly snapped his fingers: "Have you investigated the cause of the businessman's mother's death?"
Li Yu shook his head and asked: "When we investigate this case, why do we need to investigate the cause of the businessman's death?"
"Nonsense, check the motive of the murder. The deepest desire can often cause the most extreme hatred, and his hatred may be even more morbid." Tang Ji glanced at him angrily, and then said: "Go and check, can you?"
Once we get to the bottom of it, the case will almost be closed."
Li Yu swallowed his saliva, and seeing his firm tone, he couldn't help but nodded.
Jiu'er, who was sitting next to him, wiped his mouth and asked, "Uncle, what is criminal psychology?"
