Chapter 15 The magistrate is here(1/2)
Southeast corner of the city wall.
Crime scene.
Two minzhuangs, one middle-aged man in black clothes and a black face, their bodies were stiff and lying in different places.
The ground of the city wall has become uneven due to years of wind erosion, and dark red blood has accumulated in the depressions.
In the middle of the three dead men, a slender sword lay quietly, its blade was bright and unstained with blood.
This is the crime scene discovered by the policemen on patrol this morning. No one dared to disturb it, and it remained as it was when the crime occurred.
Tang Shujing is dressed like a weak daughter, but wearing it is a bit inconsistent.
But what is even more unconventional is that the Tangtang County Yalin Chief is being bossed around like a little brother by Tang Shujing.
The county magistrate, the chief registrar, the county lieutenant, and the county magistrate Tang Ju stood outside the crime scene, pointing and discussing the case in a low voice.
It is no surprise that when Princess Lanling is about to arrive, a life case will occur in the county, which is very dangerous.
If you don't pay attention, you will be demoted.
This case is really important.
At the beginning, Tang Ju personally visited the crime scene and investigated with Tang Shujing, looking for clues.
However, the stiff corpse, the thick and black blood on the ground, and the cold sword all had a big impact on Tang Ju.
After all, I overestimated myself.
With no other choice, Tang Ju had no choice but to withdraw and stand on the outside looking in.
Otherwise, it would be bad to vomit in front of all the subordinates...
The stench of stinky tofu continued to float up from the bottom of the city wall.
Tang Ju held his hands on the mottled parapet and smelled the stench, which miraculously made the turmoil in his stomach gradually calm down.
With this effect, Tang Ju suddenly felt that the smell... was actually not that unpleasant!
He even tasted a different taste from it.
Just like drinking tea, the tea tastes bitter, but it feels sweet after drinking it.
It's like eating chili peppers. Chili peppers are spicy in the mouth, but you feel refreshed after eating them.
This is also true for the smell of stinky tofu.
Facing the breeze, Tang Ju took another deep breath. For some reason, after the stench suppressed the overwhelming feeling in his stomach, it actually gave him a hint of... greed.
Greedy greedy.
He wanted to taste the stinky tofu for himself!
Maybe this is what is called "fighting fire with fire"?
"Captain Lin, come here." Tang Ju decided to learn more about the stinky tofu.
"Ming Mansion?" Mr. Lin was following Tang Shujing, slapping his hands, and seemed to be enjoying the process.
But Tang Ju's words made him immediately step down.
He also knew the importance of this case to Tang Ju, and he subconsciously believed that Tang Ju greeted him just to inquire about the case.
"What are you still doing? Come here quickly. I have something to ask you." Tang Ju urged.
"Yes..." Mr. Lin walked over with his head hanging down.
"How much do you know about stinky tofu?" Tang Ju asked.
"Ah?" Lin Captou was surprised.
"Um?"
"Oh..." Immediately, Capt. Lin told everything.
It turns out that this morning, when Captain Lin and his people rushed to the scene of the crime, they smelled the stench.
The smell was really weird, so he sent someone to investigate. Therefore, he knew a lot about stinky tofu.
After a while, Captain Lin finished speaking.
Tang Ju listened silently, pondered for a long time, and finally asked in a low voice: "At that stinky tofu stall, you can really try it for free without paying for it?"
"Uh...yes...yes." Lin Captou felt very strange, but he didn't dare to show it.
"Okay, I understand. You can go down and do your work." Tang Ju waved his hand.
"yes."
Captain Lin scratched his neck and returned to the crime scene to continue investigating.
Two quarters of an hour later.
After the survey, Tang Shujing clapped her hands and walked over with long legs.
"How?" Tang Ju asked.
The county magistrate, the chief registrar, etc. also stopped talking and turned their faces.
"Judging from the deceased's wounds and blood coagulation, the crime should have occurred in the second half of last night, around midnight."
Once Tang Shujing talks about the case, she will look solemn, and it seems that it really seems like that.
But Tang Ju thought she was unreliable, so he turned to look at Lin Captou.
Lin Baotou waved and summoned Wu Zuo, who agreed with Tang Shujing's remarks.
"Chou Shi." Tang Ju nodded, and then glared at the county lieutenant who was shrinking his neck, because on the way here, the county lieutenant told him that the crime happened in the early hours of this morning.
"Judging from the wounds and the weapons left at the scene, I speculate that the man in black killed the two people first, and then a murderer appeared and killed the man in black with another weapon, and finally escaped.
!”
"The absconding murderer was very clever and didn't leave any clues. Mr. Lin did not lie about this." Tang Shujing added.
Tang Ju glanced at Lin Captou, frowned and said: "Does that mean there is no clue to this case?"
Tang Shujing nodded: "There seems to be no clue at the moment."
"Eh!"
Tang Ju sighed, turned around, and gently patted the mottled parapet.
The thing you were most worried about finally happened!
"Dad, there is no need to worry. My daughter is the 'best goddess catcher in the world'. She will definitely be able to solve the case and relieve daddy's worries!"
Tang Shujing pumped her fists and was full of confidence.
Her eyes are big and bright, and her lips are red.
He has a handsome face and two cute dimples when he smiles.
The county magistrate, county captain, chief registrar, etc. also tried to persuade Tang Ju.
They believe that, firstly, Princess Lanling will not necessarily change her route and pass through Leshou County.
Second: There are still several days before the arrival of Princess Lanling. In such a long time, there should be a breakthrough in the case.
"That's all."
Tang Ju waved his hand.
Since the matter has already happened, there is no point in worrying too much.
After instructing a few people to stay and clean up the crime scene, he returned to the East City Tower with his troops.
On the way, Tang Shujing and Lin Baotou fell behind.
Mr. Lin bowed his head and said, "Thank you very much, Miss Second, for your kind words, otherwise I might not be able to protect my skin."
Tang Shujing patted Mr. Lin on the shoulder and said with a big grin: "You are my little brother. If you don't protect me, who else can you protect?"
"Follow me and do your best!"
Tang Shujing patted his shoulder again, and took long legs to catch up with Tang Ju in front.
Lin Captou hesitated to speak, and finally shook his head with a wry smile and followed silently...
Soon, everyone got off the tower.
Tang Ju pondered for a moment, touched his belly, and ordered with a smile: "Get the car ready, let's go to Jiaolou Street first to see what that stinky tofu is!"
…
…
Southeast corner of the county seat.
Jiaolou Street.
There was no one on the street in front of the stinky tofu stall.
Shopkeeper Luo and other neighbors hid two feet away and did not dare to come near.
