Xu Zun quickened his pace while thinking carefully about You Dalang's case.
He was thinking that if Chun Niang's hookup with him and You Dalang's murder of his wife were all part of a conspiracy, would the main target of this conspiracy be him?
Just imagine, if You Dalang's plan succeeds, he will become a disgraced prisoner!
Could it be...that someone wants to kill him?
How could Xu Zun not feel deeply worried when he thought of this possibility?
Could it be...that the former Lieutenant of Xu County offended someone?
Or maybe someone doesn't want Xu Zun to marry Shen's family? Trying to ruin the wedding three months later?
Tsk tsk...
It’s really a good idea to carry it home!
Others who traveled through time were thinking about how to get promoted and get rich by going to Goulan, but what about you? You were plotted by others before you even realized it!
Xu Zun knew that this matter was of great importance, even life and death.
If someone is really plotting against you, your situation is still very dangerous!
Therefore, he must interrogate You Dalang no matter what and ask him to tell the whole truth.
If You Dalang only killed his wife for the sake of killing his wife, that would be fine. But if not, then he must get to the bottom of it and get to the bottom of it!
Ancient prisons were commonly known as "South Prison", and most of them were built on the south side of the county government office.
Xinye County is no exception. The prison and the county government almost share the same compound, separated only by a wall.
Xu Zun walked as fast as flying and arrived at the prison door in a short time.
He is a county captain, so the gatekeeper will naturally not stop him.
However, when he entered, he saw no one. He only saw several bowls of noodles placed on the dining table in the front hall, and the white noodles were still steaming.
Apparently, the police officers and jailers had just been eating here.
Suddenly, an angry voice came from the depths of the cell. It was the voice of the head catcher Zhao Yu:
"Bullshit! A bunch of losers! Don't you want to do this anymore? You can't even watch a prisoner!?"
What!?
Hearing Zhao Yu's angry rebuke, Xu Zun instinctively had a premonition that something bad was going to happen.
Could it be that...you Dalang can still escape from prison?
He quickly followed the sound and entered the corridor.
Various prisoners were held on both sides of the corridor, and moans of pain could be heard.
The cell was dark and smelly.
Xu Zun was not in the mood to taste it carefully. After turning another corridor, he finally saw Zhao Yu and others in front of a certain cell.
"Captain Zhao, it's time to pee!" A jailer was explaining something, "If I had known, I wouldn't have gone to the toilet! Who would have thought that something like this would happen?"
"Hey, let me tell you, what are you good at?" Zhao Yu pointed at this person and cursed, "Every day I think about smearing oil on the prisoner and catching toads to pee out, but you take good care of this person!"
"What's wrong? What happened?" Xu Zun did not hesitate and immediately stepped forward to ask.
"Hey? Master Xu?" Seeing Xu Zun's sudden appearance, everyone was surprised. The head catcher Zhao Yu hurriedly stepped forward and clasped his fists to report, "Sir, why are you here? No...it's nothing serious. It was that You Dalang who committed suicide out of fear of crime.
Got it!"
What!!?
When Xu Zun heard this news, it was like a bolt from the blue!
"Suicide out of fear of crime?" Xu Zun's eyes widened and he couldn't believe it, "Dead!?"
"Yes!" Zhao Yu, however, did not make a fuss. He pointed to the cell casually and said, "Look! This kid knocked his head against the corner and died after hitting the wall!"
Xu Zun took a look and saw that there was indeed a person lying in the cell, with blood pouring from his head.
The cell had already been opened by the jailer. Xu Zun quickly got in and came closer to check.
I saw You Dalang lying on the ground, with a shocking dent in his head. You could even see the cracked stubble of his forehead bone in the dent!
With just one glance, Xu Zun could conclude that You Dalang was definitely dead! It was impossible to survive such a violent impact.
Looking up at the wall, there is a protruding corner with a blood stain on the corner.
It can be seen that You Dalang hit his head hard on the corner and killed himself alive!
this……
Xu Zun's heart skipped a beat, it couldn't be such a coincidence!?
Just when he was about to come over to interrogate him, he died!?
"Master Xu, it's my fault too!" At this time, Zhao Yu blamed himself, "I wanted to wait until I had a full stomach before I tried again, but I didn't expect this guy to be so strong!"
"Yeah!" A police officer next to him agreed, "It hit you so hard, you are so cruel to yourself!"
Listening to what the police officers were saying, they seemed not to care about You Dalang's death. After all, it is not uncommon for someone to commit suicide in prison out of fear of crime.
Moreover, You Dalang was already a murderer, and in the eyes of everyone, his death was already insignificant.
However, for Xu Zun, it is completely the opposite.
You Dalang's sudden death made him feel frightened and his back felt cold.
He had to suspect that You Dalang's death might not have been suicide due to fear of crime, but - murder and silence!!?
The nearby cells are all empty and no other prisoners are being held. It is not impossible for someone to enter You Dalang's cell and kill him.
Oh my God, if it was really a murder and silence, and You Dalang died in the cell, does that mean...
He didn't dare to think any further and could only suppress his inner excitement.
Years of undercover experience told him that the more critical the moment, the more important it is to stay calm!
Next, he observed the environment and analyzed the situation in front of him.
The top priority was that he first needed to confirm whether You Dalang died of suicide or homicide?
It was suicide, so the case could stop there;
But if it was a homicide, it would be a big problem! It means there must be a big conspiracy behind it!
So, can we tell whether it is suicide or homicide?
Logically speaking, You Dalang was short in stature and had limited strength. Even if he committed suicide, he might not be able to hit him so violently.
However, after all, we hit a sharp corner. If we were determined to die, we might still have such a tragic collision.
Tsk tsk...
Xu Zun couldn't help but sigh. It's a pity that this is an ancient time with backward technology. We can't extract fingerprints, test blood, and compare DNA, let alone check the monitoring equipment.
It seems that if you want to know whether it was suicide, you can only rely on an autopsy!
However, although he has been a criminal police officer, he has never really participated in criminal investigation and solving cases, and he is not very good at autopsies.
What he is best at is being good at observation, figuring out people's minds, and pretending.
If the body cannot be examined, how can we prove whether You Dalang committed suicide?
It seems...
Xu Zun silently made up his mind and could only use the method he was good at!
"Listen to me!" He suddenly said to everyone, "You must mobilize manpower now to completely seal off You Dalang's silk and satin shop and control all the clerks in the shop!"
"Ah?" Everyone was surprised and looked at each other.
"Sir," Zhao Yu asked hurriedly, "what do you mean by this?"
"Do as I say!" Xu Zun ordered without any doubt, "If you can't even do this well, don't blame me, Mr. Xu, for being unkind!"
"This..." Everyone was still at a loss.
"What are you still doing?" Xu Zun scolded, "Act now! Gogogo!"
"Yes!" Although he didn't understand what go meant, Zhao Yu didn't dare to disobey and still accepted the order with clasped fists.
However, just as he was leading everyone to leave, Xu Zun stopped him again.
"Captain Zhao," Xu Zun said coldly, "Just let the policemen handle this small matter. You can keep it for a while!"
"This...okay!" Zhao Yu had no choice but to signal to his men, and then the detectives took the order and left.
After everyone walked away, Xu Zun patted Zhao Yu on the shoulder and said:
"Old Zhao! What do you think you did? Is this how you kept it a secret for me?"
"Huh?" Zhao Yu heard that the target of the attack was wrong and asked hurriedly, "Sir, what do you mean by this?"
"I asked you to interrogate You Dalang," Xu Zun said with a cold expression on his lips, "Why did you kill this person!?"
