People are in Zhenguan, solving crimes scientifically

Chapter 55 The ghost of Zhao Deshun is back?

The next day.

on the official road.

The dust was flying, and more than a dozen horsemen escorted the two carriages, moving forward along the official road.

Zhao Shiwu, who was driving the first carriage, looked up at the sky. The blood-red sunset hung above the treetops, and it was almost dark.

He said: "Mr. Wei, it's getting late. There is a small town five miles ahead. Do you want to spend the night there?"

In the carriage, Wei Zheng was still sitting upright, his body swaying with the shaking of the carriage. He heard Zhao Shiwu's voice and said, "How far is it from Shangzhou City?"

Zhao Shiwu said: "Almost thirty miles."

Wei Zheng thought for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty only gave Zide ten days. We have already been delayed for two days on the road. We can't delay any more. We will go straight to the city and enter the city late at night. I have your Majesty's order, so there is no need to worry about the city gate being closed." And the curfew thing.”

When Zhao Shiwu heard this, he naturally did not dare to disobey: "Yes!"

He immediately drove the carriage and accelerated forward while there was still some sunshine.

After Lin Feng asked Jiang Hecheng yesterday, he set off directly for Shangzhou.

Because Dai Zhou still had to deal with the follow-up matters of the Cuizhu case and the arson case, he could not leave, so Wei Zheng was in charge of the investigation this time, and Lin Feng was in charge of the main investigation.

Sun Fujia represented the Ministry of Punishment, and Zhao Shiwu represented Peng Ke... He asked to bring it with him. On the one hand, he was used to it, and Lin Feng needed an obedient assistant. On the other hand, Lin Feng had seen Zhao Shiwu with his own eyes. martial arts.

Zhao Shiwu has big arms and a round waist, and is not weak in martial arts. With him by his side, Lin Feng feels very safe.

Although he had strong skills when he was a criminal policeman in his previous life, firstly, his body is too thin and he cannot use [-]% of his ability. Secondly, it is always good to have one more person to protect him.

After all, there seem to be a lot of people who want to die...

Except for staying overnight in a small town last night and letting the horses rest and drink water on the way, they had been on their way.

Fortunately, Shangzhou is not far from Chang'an and can be reached tonight.

Lin Feng was sitting in the carriage, protecting his brain from being shaken out, while listening to Sun Fujia, who was sitting opposite, introducing the people he was about to meet.

"After Jiang Hecheng was captured, the Ministry of Civil Affairs has not yet found a suitable replacement, so now Shangzhou is temporarily represented by Chief Shi Lu Chenhe."

"After we go to Shangzhou, we will contact him and let him cooperate with us to re-investigate the Zhao Deshun case."

Lu Chenhe... Lin Feng had heard this name when he asked Jiang Hecheng.

According to Jiang Hecheng's habit, before any prisoner is tried, he must first hit the ten big bullets. This is called a killing stick, so that the prisoner understands the situation and does not dare to conceal or speak nonsense.

Jiang Hecheng originally wanted to do this to Zhao Deshun, but Lu Chenhe stopped him.

Lin Feng said: "How about this Lu Chenhe?"

Sun Fuga said: "I met him when we came to investigate before. He is very understanding of people and the world, and he is well-founded in his actions. He has a good reputation in Shangzhou."

Lin Feng nodded.

Sun Fujia looked at Lin Feng who was holding Tang Law and studying it very hard along the way. His eyes were full of admiration. No wonder Lin Feng has such ability to solve crimes. Look what they are doing.

He travels so hard and keeps his hands on Tang Lv. Such a person is not powerful, and God cannot tolerate it!

He said: "Do you need me to introduce you to the situation of the Zhao family?"

Zhao Minglu had already briefly said it, but after thinking about it, Lin Feng still felt that he could listen to Sun Fujia's introduction. The No.1 perspective and the third-party perspective would have different emphases, and maybe he could discover something that Zhao Minglu had not noticed. .

He nodded and said, "Then Dr. Lao Sun is here."

Sun Fujia smiled and said: "The Zhao family is a famous wealthy businessman, and they are the richest businessman in Shangzhou."

"Zhao Deshun is philanthropic, has a good temper, and has always had a good reputation. He only has one main wife and two concubines. The main wife passed away not long after Zhao Minglu was born, so Zhao Minglu has been taken care of and raised by his concubine, Mrs. Zhao, and the two of them have Just like a biological mother and son, the relationship is very good.”

"There is another concubine, the deceased Zhou Waner. Zhou Waner was married into the family by Zhao Deshun three years ago."

Lin Feng said: "That concubine, Mrs. Zhao...hasn't had any children for so many years?"

Sun Fujia nodded: "No."

No wonder they are like their own mother and son... Lin Feng nodded.

He recalled what Jiang Hecheng said when Zhao went to visit Zhao Minglu in prison. She said why Zhao Minglu was so stupid...

Does it mean that Zhao Minglu was stupid to kill someone, or was he stupid to surrender?

Lin Feng thought for a moment and then motioned to Sun Fuga to continue.

Sun Fujia said: "Zhao Deshun also has a younger sister, Zhao Qian, who married a husband-in-law named Zhou Songlin. They both live together in the Zhao Mansion. They have a son named Zhao Fang, who is eight years old now."

"This is the situation of their family. It's very simple. Zhao Minglu is Zhao Deshun's only son, and he has always been highly anticipated by Zhao Deshun. Zhao Deshun does not let Zhao Minglu participate in any business operations, and only lets him study hard. I hope he can make a difference in the future."

"And Zhao Minglu did not disappoint Zhao Deshun. He became a disciple of Cui Yan, the most famous scholar in Shangzhou City. He saw that he had the opportunity to honor his ancestors, but he did not realize it..."

Sun Fujia sighed: "Such a thing happened."

There is really a sad feeling of dying before leaving the mission... Lin Feng nodded while recalling what Jiang Hecheng said and what Zhao Qian and his wife said when they visited Zhao Minglu in prison.They were asking...whether Zhao Minglu really killed someone.

Do you not believe that Zhao Minglu will kill someone, or do you expect Zhao Minglu to kill someone?
The difference is huge!

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and said, "Zhao Qian is a bride-in-law... so her status in the Zhao family should be very high, right?"

Sun Fujia nodded: "Apart from Zhao Deshun and Zhao Minglu, Zhao Qian has the highest status, and Zhao Qian has a bad temper and is..."

Sun Fujia hesitated for a moment and then said: "She is also quite domineering, so many people in the Zhao family are afraid of her."

Being able to have Sun Fujia say that she was arrogant behind her back, Lin Feng could already imagine how unpopular this Zhao Qian was.

He thought for a moment and said, "It seems that there is still one person missing."

He remembered Jiang Hecheng saying that there seemed to be a younger sister who also visited the prison.

Sun Fujia nodded: "Yes, there is also Zhao Yanran. She is Zhao Minglu's cousin, and his father is Zhao Deshun's cousin. More than two months ago, her father was riding a carriage, and the carriage lost control and fell off a cliff. She was the only one left. "

"Zhao Deshun cared about family ties and thought she was a helpless woman, so he took her to the Zhao Mansion."

Lin Feng pinched Tang Lu, who was about to be turned to pieces by him, with his fingertips and nodded slightly.

The orphan was taken to the Zhao Mansion by Zhao Deshun. Zhao Deshun could be said to be her only support. As a result, Zhao Deshun died, and Zhao Qian was a tyrannical master. Lin Feng felt that this girl Zhao Yanran might be in a bad situation.

And when she was in prison, when she visited Zhao Minglu, she asked if Zhao Ming had any unfulfilled wishes and wanted to help him fulfill them... She was in a bad situation, but she still wanted to help Zhao Minglu fulfill his wishes. She was really a kind-hearted and good girl.

There are not many people in the Zhao family, but the relationship seems to be very complicated... He looked out the car window and watched the last bloody sun disappearing into the ground, his eyes flashing slightly.

Aunt Zhao Minglu, cousin Zhao Yanran, aunt Zhao Qian, uncle Zhou Songlin, cousin Zhao Fang... If there is a deeply hidden third party who can poison, and can accurately know that Zhao Minglu committed the crime, and let Zhao Deshun discover it in time Of...only those who are in the Zhao Mansion.

The files show that before and after the crime occurred that night, the servants had alibi, and they all worked together in at least three or two, which meant that they were unable to monitor Zhao Minglu... Zhao Minglu's decision to commit the crime was made on the spur of the moment. , It is impossible to predict in advance, and if you cannot see Zhao Minglu committing the crime with your own eyes, you cannot let Zhao Deshun know in time. In this case, you cannot do everything just right.

Therefore, the suspicion of these servants with alibi is very low.

In other words, if there is really a hidden third party, these five owners who have no alibi are the most suspicious.

It's just...who could it be?
…………

Rushing late at night, the speed had to be slowed down. By the time Lin Feng and the others arrived at the Zhao Mansion, it was almost late.

The entire city of Shangzhou was quiet.

But only the Zhao Mansion... was noisy at the moment.

There are also Yamen servants from the Governor's Office guarding the door outside.

Lin Feng raised his eyebrows: "Did you know we were coming and waited in advance?"

While Wei Zheng was adjusting his clothes, he said, "No, I have not ordered anyone to inform them. They will not know that we are coming. Even if they heard some rumors, they would never have expected that we would enter the city overnight."

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes: "This is interesting. It seems like something happened in the Zhao Mansion."

With that said, he was about to get out of the car and check.

"Wait a moment!"

But at this time, Wei Zheng suddenly stopped him sternly.

Then under Lin Feng's puzzled gaze, Wei Zheng stretched out his hand, gently smoothed Lin Feng's wrinkled robe from riding in the carriage, and straightened Lin Feng's head. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, the sternness in his eyes turned into gentleness like the spring breeze. , said: "That's it."

Lin Feng: "..."

How could he forget Wei Zheng's obsessive-compulsive disorder.

While thinking about it, Lin Feng looked at Sun Fujia.

I saw Sun Fujia taking advantage of Wei Zheng's opportunity to tidy up Lin Feng's clothes and hurriedly adjusting his clothes. Lin Feng looked at him and said calmly: "As an official of the imperial court, I always represent the majesty of the imperial court, so I should dress appropriately at all times."

Wei Zheng nodded with great satisfaction: "Mr. Sun has the appearance of a censor."

Sun Fuga hurriedly said: "I am not as good as Wei Gong, one or two tenths of the time. I am ashamed and ashamed."

Lin Feng: "..."

His eyes twitched and he decided to ignore these two guys and got off the carriage directly.

After getting off the carriage, I had a better view. I could clearly see that the Zhao Mansion was brightly lit and full of people. It didn't look like the normal scene after dark.

Lin Feng winked at Zhao Shiwu, who immediately came to the two gatekeepers, took out his token and said, "We are following His Majesty's order to re-investigate the Zhao Deshun case."

When the two government officials saw this, they saluted quickly.

Zhao Shishi looked at Lin Feng. Lin Feng looked at the two of them with a smile and said, "Excuse me, what happened in the Zhao Mansion?"

The two government officials looked at each other, and one of the taller officials said, "The Zhao Mansion is haunted. Not long ago... Zhao Deshun's ghost came back."
