The scribe is ready here, just waiting for the interrogation to begin.
The clerk was a little tired. He felt this way even before he started, because he discovered that Jin Shan was wrong.
This is not serious at all. I have never seen anyone handling a case like this since I started practicing law. The interrogation was just interrogation, and they were all chatting. They also drank tea, fish and meat, and even ate hares. These game must taste delicious, because
It smells great, and coupled with the fine wine and fragrant tea, you can really work and enjoy yourself at the same time. The combination of the two is perfect, it is really beautiful and happy!
There is no way, who is the scribe? Once you carry someone else's bowl, you must obey their control. You can do whatever you are told, and obey unconditionally.
Fan Shouyun didn't expect this. There was a barbecue hare at the end, and he was asked to talk about the characteristics of the hare. What did this mean? Could it be that the county magistrate was actually a wolf?
Or is it a dog similar to a wolf?
He thought so in his heart, but did not say it out loud, but there was an imperceptible sneer at the corner of his mouth.
Compared with dogs, wolves are more suitable for survival in nature. In the same environment, which is very harsh, wild dogs have greater survivability, while dogs have weaker survivability.
Fan Shouyun asked what the verdict would be in this trial.
He became very nervous because he saw the instruments of torture. These were newly added furnishings. They said they were furnishings, but in fact they were not. This was the last interrogation.
"Fan Shouyun!"
"exist!"
"Do you know your guilt?"
"Ignorant of guilt."
"Sure enough, it's an old fox. No matter how cunning the fox is, he can't escape from the clutches of a good hunter. Boy, if you fall into the hands of this official, you have accumulated some virtue. Please tell me all your crimes quickly and avoid the pain of flesh and blood.
"Jin Shan said angrily.
"No wonder we have to roast hare today? That's it!"
"It's better to actually recruit him!"
"How to recruit? Aren't they all recruited?" Fan Shouyun asked.
Fan Shouyun just wanted to stay on his side and refused to plead guilty.
This angered Jin Shan. He raised his voice as if he had climbed thirty floors and shouted down: "Don't do this. People say you are cunning. I didn't believe it at first. All cases are related to people."
, the mistakes people make and the things they do all have an impression. As long as you are good at asking questions, you will definitely find clues. Once there are clues, you can find out clearly. "
"Then aren't these three days a waste of time? Are they also handling cases?" Fan Shouyun asked.
"Fan Shouyun, you are really cunning. No matter how cunning you are, you can't escape the hands of me. You are indeed right! I chatted with you for three days. On the surface, it seemed that it was all trivial things, including books.
Everyone present feels that it is a waste of time and unnecessary, but I have my own way of finding the problem."
"What's the problem?" Fan Shouyun asked.
"What's the problem? It's the clues to the case. Taken together, looking back at the three days of interrogation, in general, your answers in the three days are inconsistent, inconsistent, full of loopholes, and inconsistent." Jin Shan said.
.
"Those are the drunken words that the master said to the youngster after drinking. They don't count." Fan Shouyun said.
"No, it's not about drinking. Before the interrogation, I didn't let you drink. I only rewarded you with wine and meat after you answered the questions. Isn't that right?" Jin Shan asked.
Fan Shouyun tilted his neck and thought for a moment, then lowered his head.
Jin Shan went on to say: "It's so contradictory on trivial matters, but it's even more so when it comes to the case itself!"
Fan Shouyun knew that he would not be able to escape punishment, but he wanted to resist in the end and said: "Sir, there is no direct evidence to prove that the crime committed by the villain is established. How can we prove that the villain must be a criminal?"
After hearing this, everyone present was filled with indignation and wanted to go up and slap him in the face.
Jin Shan said angrily: "You are a fickle villain who turns his hands to make clouds and rain! If you dare to hide your arguments again, I will use the trivial things you answered in the past three days to prove your capriciousness, even if you use
A severe punishment to death is not excessive. It complies with the criminal law and the conditions for killing you are enough. There is no need to find any more evidence. Just prepare to be killed by your neck!"
Fan Shouyun still wanted to quibble, but when he saw Jin Shan's eyes widening, Jin Shan shouted sternly: "Come here, beat me hard, you deserve to be beaten to death! You deserve to be beaten to death! You don't need to be held responsible for beating me to death!"
When Fan Shouyun heard and looked at it, he immediately gave up his opinion. Knowing that Jin Shan was serious and not just joking, he immediately gave up and stopped making excuses.
So, he gave a clear explanation of the crime he committed, and the clerk recorded it in detail. Then Fan Shouyun said: "Master, I will never dare to reverse the case again. Everything I said today is true, and I will not do anything I said in the past."
Count, today’s confession, signed and stamped, I plead guilty and submit to the law.”
When the clerk heard this, he couldn't hold the pen in his hand. He thought to himself, who is Jin Shan? He is so powerful! This is not the case for others. He handled the case calmly and settled it easily.
An old and cunning habitual criminal is really admirable!
Jin Shan finished handling the case in Tanghe County and was about to leave. The magistrate of Tanghe County refused to let him go and said: "The case on land has been solved, and there is another case on the water that needs my brother's help. After finishing this case
, the wise brother can leave, and the foolish brother will not stop him anymore. I wonder what the wise brother wants?"
"This, this, this!" Jin Shan said, looking very reluctant.
"Wine, wine and barbecue are enough. The prerequisite is to work hard and achieve results." The magistrate of Tanghe County said.
"You can put everything else aside. I just want to know what good wine my brother has prepared?" Jin Shan asked.
Jin Shan knew very well that his salary from the court was not large, and he did not have enough money to buy wine. He also had to support his family and handle cases, so he must eat and drink, and these could not be prohibited.
He asked about good wine to see if the wine tasted to his liking.
"Don't worry, brother Xian, this wine is a good wine that Brother Yu has collected for many years. He usually wouldn't let it go, but you are here to take care of it." Magistrate Tanghe said with a smile.
"That's good! There is always something to gain." Jin Shan said with a smile. In fact, he doesn't have high requirements. It doesn't matter what kind of wine he has, as long as it is wine that can be intoxicating but not deliberately drunk. This is just right!
The county magistrate of Tanghe knew about Jin Shan's problem, so he did what he wanted. He had already prepared "bait". Without bait, how could the big fish take the bait?
Jin Shan agreed.
The Tanghe County Magistrate said: "As long as my dear brother agrees, it will be easy to handle. After agreeing, we will tell the story."
"what story?"
"Brother Xian, do you still remember? Brother Xian went to Laohekou before and solved a case accidentally, right?" the Tanghe County Magistrate said.
"Oh, is there such a thing?"
"Yes, it became a good story for a while."
"Didn't I do that, my dear brother?"
"Don't come! Although Brother Yu is stupid, he remembers this matter clearly. Otherwise, Brother Xian would not be invited to solve the case."
"Oh, maybe. What case makes me bother to think about it?"
"It's just my good brother's business."
Jin Shan was shocked when he heard this!
"Please say!"
"Xiandi was walking by the river one day and suddenly found a small boat. Then he jumped rope to the boat and solved a huge robbery, right?"
"Oh, yes, I remembered it. That happened many years ago. What I did when I was still a policeman in the county government. What? Do you still remember it now?"
"Of course I remember. Because Jiangyang thieves are also intruding on the people, making local officials exhausted and making everyone feel unsafe."
"Yes, I just met by chance. My little brother found out the clues. As a result, I unintentionally solved a major case. My little brother didn't expect this."
"How did Brother Xian discover the abnormality at that time?"
"It's actually very simple. The boat is a small boat. According to general rules or basic common sense, as long as the wind blows over the boat, the boat will tilt obviously, but this boat does not. It looks very stable. Also, ordinary boats,
The draft is not deep, and the hull is swaying in the wind. The cables on the boat are extremely difficult to pull the boat, which is not normal. There must be a lot of heavy things on the boat, otherwise the boat would not behave like this."
"Oh, it seems that Brother Xian saw something wrong on the ship."
"Yes, no problem, you don't have to get on the boat."
"Later, my dear brother got on the boat. What did the boatman say?"
"The boatman acted very unjustly and swore that he was not guilty. The more he said this, the less convinced he became. Everyone is like this. He was obviously lying, but he seemed to mean what he said. It seemed like he really meant what he said.
"
"The boatman lets you get on the boat, what happens next?"
"Then he took the initiative to open the wooden planks to see if there were any stolen goods hidden at the bottom of the boat."
"Did Brother Xian find anything?"
"I found it. In the plywood, I found a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry and silk and satin."
"No wonder the boat is very drafty. It turns out that every boat is a treasure." The Tanghe County Magistrate said with a smile.
"The boatman is a bandit, specializing in stealing things. After stealing, he puts the treasure on the boat. The boat is designed with a hidden cabin to hide some valuable items. There are mezzanines and plywood, so nothing can be seen from the outside. It turns out that the bottom of the boat
There is another layer below. It is easy to hide some things. It seems that the boatman did not worry too much and pocketed all the ill-gotten gains. No matter how secretive he was, he could not escape the eyes of his younger brother. After repeated observations, he discovered the secret.
"Jin Shan said.
"Isn't the boatman embarrassed?"
"Of course, after discovering the gold, silver, jewels, silk and satin, the boatman was so frightened that he knelt on the bow of the ship and kowtowed, banging the deck, hoping that his younger brother would spare his life!"
"Why didn't this guy think about the consequences when he did bad things?"
"If you think about it, you won't start doing it. There are also people who think about it but insist on doing it. There are not many people like this. They are heinous. Once caught, they will be severely punished." Jin Shan said.
"That wise brother still tolerated the situation and did not sentence him to death."
"It's not that I'm being lenient, little brother, it's that the county magistrate at that time was kind to others and wanted to give him a chance to change his ways," Jin Shan said.
"Who was the county magistrate at that time?"
"It's Yin Jian, he's in Dali Temple now."
"Oh, that's it! He also has a helper, what is his name?"
"The Book of Divination Hui is the current emperor's tutor. It is said that he has never passed the examination. However, he is promoted to the emperor's teacher despite being unknown. This shows that his knowledge and knowledge are extraordinary." Jin Shan said.
"That's really strange. Many people in the world who have read poetry and books cannot reach his level. Is he studying all day long? How come he is so knowledgeable?"
"That's half nature and half nurture. Some people study diligently, but are not born with the same talent, so they cannot excel. Some people are talented and smart, and they also study a lot after nurture, but even if they are good at things, they will be reused. This matter still depends on fate.
Yes." Jin Shan said.
"You are also very smart. How did you do it?"
"My dear friend, I am wrong. In fact, I don't like reading. However, I am good at observing, looking at some details, and seeing things that others don't pay attention to. This is my strength." Jin Shan continued.
"This foolish brother already knows. What should we do with this case now?"
"What case?"
"Just now, someone died just now."
"Isn't it normal for people to die? People die every day."
"If you don't die, you will die of old age or illness. This one will be killed by someone."
"How do you see it?"
"To make it clear, he died in the water and has been found. It's the body found in the river. I don't know what to do now? Brother Yu, we are in a state of distress."
"Oh, that's it! If a person dies in the river, it's not because he drowned or fell into the water by himself. Then it's very likely that someone killed him for money," Jin Shan said.
"Yes, he is a wealthy businessman who often does business locally. On the day he disappeared, he took the payment to purchase goods. Later, when he found that he had not returned for a long time and violated the factory, his family reported it to the police. Later, the land security reported that he found a floating body.
After a comparison, his family recognized him. He had a very obvious black mole on his chest. After soaking for many days, the mole was clearly visible and his family recognized him at a glance. As a result, he had no money on him and a blunt instrument on the back of his head.
The body was dented after the blow. It seemed that someone had attacked him from behind before he was alive. Then he cleaned away all his money, tied the body to rocks, and sank to the bottom of the river. Unexpectedly, God has eyes, the rope was not strong, broke, and the body floated up.
If someone discovers it, report it to the land warden, and the land warden will report it to the official." said the Tanghe County Magistrate.
"The analysis makes sense. Since it was found in the river, the crime must have been committed on the river. To be more specific, it was on a boat. We must strictly check the passing boats. Don't you have some wine? Take it out!" Jin Shan said.
"Brother Xian, what do you want wine for?"
"Drink! Isn't wine for drinking? Is it placed there for people to look at the wine bottles? What's so good about wine bottles with all the bells and whistles? Isn't it just some blue and white porcelain and some patterns of palace ladies? You want to draw
, wouldn’t it be much better if you could find someone to paint it and hang it on the wall?” Jin Shan said.
"Of course I can provide you with this wine. Let me drink enough, but don't delay the business. Brother Yu still hopes that brother Xian will solve the case quickly! There is not much time to spend drinking, drinking tea, reciting poems and writing poems. Those romantic affairs should wait until retirement.
Let’s do it later!”
"No, do it now. Work is about reciting poems and writing poems. Life is about drinking tea and drinking. Don't wait until you have free time to do it. If you don't wait until then, you will be doomed. If you want to do something, do it quickly.
"Don't wait. If you wait and wait, you will waste time and accomplish nothing. Isn't it a pity?" Jin Shan said.
