The shopkeeper and Xiao Er sighed in front of the counter, looking at the empty lobby, the two of them were frowning, and they didn't even notice that Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo came over.

"Second brother, here are two bowls of white porridge, another dish of pickles and two steamed buns." Seeing that the waiter in the shop didn't notice the two of them, Song Wuya immediately stepped forward and said.

Hearing this, the waiter in the shop realized what he said, and hurriedly responded and ran towards the back hall.It's better to have business than to have no business.The shopkeeper looked at the two, and only smiled at them, then turned his head again, looked aside and continued to frown.

Until I even finished my breakfast, I didn't see anyone again.After leaving the inn, the sky was cloudy, as if it was going to snow.And on this street, everyone was talking about the fire in the Chunxiang Pavilion, and by the way, there was a little bit of the murder incident in the inn.

Walking on the street, neither of them knew where to go.In this capital city, they are completely unfamiliar with the place, and here they can only wait patiently.There was nothing to do right now, and seeing that it was still early, Song Wuya felt that the magistrate might have already started a trial, so he immediately decided to go to the government office to see what happened.

Sure enough, when the two of them came over, the government office was completely blocked by people.After all, it was so hard to have such a lively viewing, how could people let it go so easily.

"mighty!"

Hearing the cries of the yamen servants inside, Song Wuya was overjoyed, it was really a coincidence that he had just been promoted.

"Bring criminals to court!"

With a yell, the murderer was caught last night, and he was immediately turned into the hall.It can be seen that yesterday's board made him feel very uncomfortable, he couldn't even walk smoothly, and was dragged to the lobby by two yamen servants.

The current him doesn't have the ferocity of last night, he looks a lot more honest.I'm afraid it was because he was in prison yesterday and was cleaned up by the jailer.I guess I haven't eaten this meal yet, so I'm exhausted.

"What is the name of the person kneeling in the hall, and where does he live?" The magistrate immediately started the trial.

Song Wuya listened carefully outside, this person's confession is very useful, at least let him know the motive of this guy's murder.

"I'm Qi Shilian, who lives in southern Guangxi."

The man answered the prefect's culture honestly, without even a little hesitation.

Lord Zhifu frowned, after hearing this, he immediately looked at him and asked, "Why did you come to the capital?"

"kill!"

"Oh?" Hearing the other party's answer so bluntly, the magistrate immediately frowned, and asked angrily: "So, you killed Gaoke was a premeditated thing?"

This person's answer was very straightforward, which Song Wuya did not expect.I thought this guy would try his best to resist, but who knew that things would go so smoothly.But the more this happened, the more Song Wuya felt that something was wrong. After all, this matter went so smoothly that he felt uneasy.

Especially this guy is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp. Killing Gaoke was premeditated, but isn't this answer now?

"This guy should be ready to answer, I'm afraid the magistrate won't be able to ask anything." Song Wuya said helplessly to Bai Zhuo who was beside him when he heard this.

This is also a matter of no choice, who told him not to be the magistrate, otherwise he would be the one who was promoted.And now he said this is not to belittle the prefect's ability, he just thinks the prefect's interrogation questions are too old-fashioned.

It would be great if the interrogation of the prisoner can hit the nail on the head. In that case, you can definitely ask all the questions you want to know.

After Song Wuya said something, Bai Zhuo looked up at him in surprise, "Brother Wuya, since this is the case, we might as well go in and explain to the prefect."

"No!" Bai Zhuo's proposal was directly rejected by Song Wuya, it was really reckless to do so. "Brother Bai, this is a court. And we are just ordinary people. Are you going to let the magistrate throw aside his magistrate's airs in front of so many people, and then respectfully push us to the magistrate's position? "

Bai Zhuo didn't think about such a thing, he is a majestic magistrate of the capital, if he, a commoner, should guide everything, what is his official authority?What about the face of the emperor?So this is absolutely impossible.

Chapter 131 Another Clue

Chapter 131 is another clue

"It was indeed premeditated." The man answered the prefect's question without hesitation.

Unexpectedly, he really planned this matter in advance, and the people listening in the hall were immediately shocked.

"Then why do you want to kill Gao Ke?" This is what the prefect wants to know the most, and the motive for killing is definitely not possible.

Qi Shilian sneered and said, "Because of Chunhua!"

"Chunhua?" The magistrate immediately frowned upon hearing this: "Who is Chunhua?"

Before Qi Shilian could answer, someone outside the hall yelled loudly: "My lord, I know! Chunhua is the bitch from Chunxiang Pavilion! That's really exciting!"

The magistrate's face immediately darkened, obviously he didn't go to the romantic place, otherwise he wouldn't be so embarrassed.Isn't Chunxiang Pavilion the place that was burned by the fire?How could this person's murder of Gao Ke be involved in this place?Song Wuya frowned and thought about it, when suddenly he thought of something.That was when they were having dinner last night, they did hear several friends of Gaoke making jokes about him, and the subject of the joke seemed to be a romantic woman in Chunxiang Pavilion.

Thinking of this, Song Wuya suddenly felt that there were some more clues.He finally knew why Gao Ke opened the window and looked into the distance in such a cold night. It turned out that he was looking at the ruins, probably because he missed the spring flowers that had been buried in the sea of ​​fire, so that the murderer had an opportunity machine.

Now Song Wuya really wanted to get to know this Chunhua, to see how charming she was, to actually make a man kill someone.

This was just Song Wuya's joke, he knew very well in his heart, maybe the murderer's real motive for killing was not like this.At the moment, it is better to find out who this Chunhua is.

Moreover, this case is actually related to the person who died in the fire, and it is not known whether there is any connection between the two cases.Is this just a coincidence?

"Silence!" The magistrate slapped the gavel heavily in his hand, and shouted sharply: "I am here to judge the case, why are you messing around here? Qi Shilian, the fire comes first, and you kill after. You know that Chunhua has already died." Why do you want to kill people when you are buried in a sea of ​​flames?"

"My lord, for no reason, just for a word of love!" Qi Shilian said after taking a deep breath.

His words were so calm that even his emotions were aroused.Judging by the change of expression on his face, it is conceivable that this seems to be true.However, Song Wuya wouldn't believe it so easily, and the prefect was the same, he didn't believe that things were that simple.

But Qi Shilian, who had finished speaking, had already put on an appearance that she would not say another word.

"What is the relationship between the two of you?" The magistrate is still not clear about the relationship between the murderer and the deceased.

After the confirmation by several companions of the deceased, they had never seen the murderer at all, and they did not know the connection between the murderer and the deceased.

"My lord, we have never met before. It was just because Chunhua, who liked me before, moved on and fell in love with this guy. I couldn't swallow this in my heart, so I killed him." It's very simple, and the reason is easy to believe.

The magistrate obviously didn't think as much as Song Wuya thought, and he actually believed it at this moment.

"Is what you said the truth?"

"My lord, there is absolutely no half-truth in what I said. Now that the evidence of the crime is solid, I can't help myself to quibble. I know that the death penalty is inevitable, so why should I hide it?"

With Qi Shilian's generous appearance, she was about to swear a poisonous oath.

But Song Wuya felt a little helpless when he saw the performance of the magistrate.He had already said before that the murderer Qi Shilian was a professional killer, it was by no means that simple.

Moreover, he had already set his sights on Gao Ke, the deceased, before the fire broke out in the Chunxiang Pavilion, but why did he kill him the day after the fire?Is it simply because there is no chance?You must know that Gao Ke lives alone in a house, and with his means, he will never fail to find a chance to make a move.

It was from this that Song Wuya concluded that there might be some kind of connection between the two cases.

"Why do you use such a tool to kill people?" The magistrate was still a little skeptical about the comparison, so he asked again.

The magistrate's question only stunned Qi Shilian for a moment, and he immediately opened his mouth and said: "To tell you the truth, this is not premeditated, I just picked up this wire on the way here that day, so Only then did I come up with such an idea. And after careful analysis and deduction, I prepared a way to get rid of the crime."

No matter what the question was, this Qi Shilian was able to answer it fluently, without even thinking about it, as if she had been prepared, as if she had expected to face such an interrogation.

After hearing his explanation, the magistrate frowned, and asked with a puzzled face: "Then why don't you use the hairband on your head?"

Indeed, compared with the wire, this hair tie will not arouse people's suspicion. Even if the government determines that the murder weapon is the hair tie, there is nothing to be done about it. After all, among men, except for the bald ones, all men use this thing to tie their hair. .

Who knew, Qi Shilian laughed helplessly after hearing what the magistrate said, "My lord, a hair tie can't be strangled to death, it will break with a little force."

"Huh?" The magistrate was immediately surprised, "How do you know?"
