Under the curious gaze of everyone, Xu Zun tore open a corner of the quilt and pulled out a handful of cotton wool.
Then, he grabbed a small wooden stick from the broom next to him, wrapped cotton wool around the wooden stick, and made a simple cotton swab!
"According to my inference," Xu Zun came to You Dalang and held up a cotton swab and said, "There is only one reason why there was no large area of blood spatter when Chun Niang was chopped!"
"What's the reason?" someone asked.
"The reason is that the murderer is a bastard!!!" Xu Zhengzhong said, "When killing, the murderer stood stupidly in front of the deceased, causing more than half of the deceased's blood to spray onto his body!"
When Xu Zun said this, others did not notice anything strange, but You Dalang suddenly shuddered.
"Shopkeeper You!" Xu Zun said calmly, "Actually, there are still many unreasonable things about you! For example, it's not raining outside, why is your hair so wet?
"Ah!?" You Dalang was sweating on his forehead and his face turned pale. It was obvious that Xu Zun had touched a painful point.
"Everyone!" Xu Zun pointed at You Dalang's head, "The evidence you mentioned is right here!"
After saying that, he took the cotton swab and pressed forward step by step. But You Dalang stepped back in horror, his short body even more stooped.
The head catcher Zhao Yu was not a vegetarian, so he immediately held down You Dalang's neck with a wave of his hand, preventing him from moving.
Xu Zun saw the right moment and inserted the cotton swab into You Dalang's bun and stirred it back and forth. When the cotton swab was pulled out, he saw that the cotton swab turned red!
"ah!!?"
Everyone exclaimed and felt it was incredible.
"Is this...is this...blood?" The old man looked shocked.
"Nonsense!" Xu Zun said coldly, "Let me tell you a fact! The fact is that You Dalang had murderous intentions when he saw Chun Niang asking me to meet at home.
"He took the kitchen knife and this hoe from the kitchen in advance.
"Then, he hid in this house. When Chun Niang and I entered the house, he first knocked me out with a hoe! Then he killed Chun Niang with a kitchen knife and put the blame on me!
“After killing the person, he was going to call someone to arrest him immediately, but he ended up covered in blood because he had no killing experience.
"So, he could only find a place to wash his hair first, but how could he wash it in a hurry?"
As he spoke, Xu Zun pressed You Dalang's cheek and signaled:
"If you examine carefully, you will find that there is still a lot of residual blood in his eyebrows and in his ears!
"How can you hide this poor performance from me? It's really ridiculous!"
"Ah!?" Everyone was shocked again. The old man pointed at You Dalang and asked, "Chun Niang... was it really you who killed her? Why... why?"
"No, no, no, no..." You Dalang hurriedly argued, "Didn't you see it just now? I was holding Chun Niang and crying, and the blood... the blood was accidentally stained at that time!"
"Hmph!" Xu Zun snorted coldly, "I knew you would say that! As soon as you entered the door, you deliberately threw yourself on the body and rubbed it against it, just to cover up this!"
"No, it's not!" You Dalang insisted, "The blood on my head and face was accidentally stained. This cannot be counted as evidence at all!"
"It doesn't matter," Xu Zun said confidently, "I have better evidence! Shopkeeper You, I've been wondering just now, it's not the New Year or the holidays, why are you wearing such expensive silk and satin?"
"Ah!?" With one sentence, You Dalang almost sat on the ground in shock.
"Now I understand!" Xu Zun said with a smile, "It must be that your clothes were stained with blood at that time, and you couldn't replace them in a hurry, so you took the clothes for sale in the store and wore them, right?"
"Huh? It's really..." At this time, the clerk in the store looked carefully and confirmed, "These are indeed the clothes sold in our store! Are you the shopkeeper?"
Looking at You Dalang again, his whole body collapsed.
"grown ups!"
At this moment, the police officers who had gone out suddenly returned, and one of them was holding a bloody robe in his hand.
"Sir," the detective reported, "we found this from under the firewood pile in the woodshed!"
"Look..." Xu Zun asked the clerks at the silk and satin shop, "Whose dress does this belong to?"
"Ah!?" The guys were startled, and someone pointed out tremblingly, "These are exactly the clothes of our shopkeeper! I saw him wearing them just this morning!"
"Hmph!" Xu Zun snorted coldly and yelled at You Dalang, "You Dalang is so bold that he deliberately murders his wife and blames me. What crime should he deserve!!?"
"I...I..." You Dalang suddenly collapsed to the ground, his face full of astonishment, and he actually muttered, "Didn't you say...he is a confused county captain? Why...why is this happening..."
What?
Confused county captain?
As soon as Xu Zun paid attention to this term, relevant information immediately popped up in his mind.
It turns out that Xu Zun in this world is really a confused county lieutenant. He is submissive and confused on weekdays, and has never handled a beautiful case.
"Shopkeeper You!" At this time, the old man who took the lead spoke, "Did you really kill Chun Niang? Why did you do this?"
"Why... why is this happening?" Everyone was also puzzled.
However, You Dalang has become dull and sluggish, and seems unable to accept this reality.
"Shopkeeper," the guys in the store couldn't believe it. They shook You Dalang and asked hurriedly, "You're telling me? Why did you kill the boss's wife? Why!?"
"I..." Finally, a light flashed through You Dalang's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said as if he had made some kind of determination, "Huh! Why don't you kill such a woman who is a womanizer, unruly, and hooks up with others?
"
"ah!?"
In one sentence, he has admitted his crime!
The murderer is indeed him!!!
However, this sentence also turned everyone's attention back to Xu Zun. Because it was obvious that the person who hooked up with Chun Niang was Xu Zun.
broken!
Xu Zun had already known through his memory that he and Chun Niang were indeed having an affair, but how could he admit it at this time?
Although cheating is a moral issue, he is an official after all, and if word spreads about it, his reputation will inevitably be affected.
Besides, I am no longer the same person now, so why should I take the blame for the old me?
"Dog officer!" At this time, You Dalang yelled, wanting to tell Xu Zun and Chun Niang's scandal in public.
"Shut up!" However, Xu Zun interrupted him with a loud shout and said viciously, "I have nothing to do with your wife. It's just your random thoughts and paranoia!"
"..." Everyone looked at each other, no one had heard of this term.
"Let me tell you!" Xu Zun said nonsense confidently, "I told you before that the reason why I have contact with Chun Niang is actually because Chun Niang knows a secret of You Dalang and wants to report You Dalang secretly!
"
"What?" Everyone was dumbfounded.
"Yes!" Xu Zun said angrily, "Chun Niang found out that You Dalang had done something illegal before and wanted to report You Dalang, but because she was worried about the relationship between husband and wife, she never made up her mind!
"And today, she finally plucked up the courage, and while You Dalang was not at home, she asked me to meet at the silk shop just to report this matter!
"Unexpectedly, You Dalang discovered that Chun Niang was going to tell the truth a long time ago, so he took the initiative and killed Chun Niang to silence her. He also framed me. He is so ruthless and the crime cannot be punished!!!"
"Ah? You..." You Dalang's eyes widened in disbelief, "You are talking nonsense, nonsense!"
"Am I talking nonsense?" Xu Zun's eyes widened, "In order to keep your secret, you killed even your wife. You are so cruel!"
"I...I didn't! It was you..." You Dalang was so angry that he was confused, "You are talking nonsense and making things up!"
"Okay!" Xu Zun said quickly, "If you say I made it up, then tell me your shocking secret and let everyone listen!"
"Okay! Let me tell you! Um... eh?" You Dalang was almost fooled by the game, he hesitated and said, "Isn't that right? I have no secrets, no secrets? What secrets do I have? I..."
"Don't worry, if you have any secrets, I will definitely let you tell them! But first of all, let's talk about your killing." Xu Zun winked at Zhao Yu, "Captain Zhao, kill this person."
Put the prisoner in jail and interrogate him properly!"
"Yes!" The policemen swarmed up and dragged You Dalang out.
"Huh? No! That's not right..." You Dalang was completely confused and tried to defend himself, "It was obviously a dog officer having an affair with my wife, how could this happen, how could this happen..."
