Chapter 1632: Captain Sun's Case
After hearing this, the prefect looked at Cheng Feng humbly. He kept rubbing his hands secretly and observing Cheng Feng's expression. He always felt that something was wrong with this case. The prince and Captain Sun obviously had different opinions. Looking at the prince's colorful face, he deduced that there must be other hidden secrets in this case!
As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. It was hard to say whether inviting the prince here was a good thing or a bad thing. So the experienced prefect bowed again and asked Cheng Feng, "Sir, this case is so difficult... It can be called a major case. Do you think we should transfer it to the Ministry of Justice?"
Cheng Feng widened his eyes. It was a good thing that he came, otherwise his bully sister-in-law and bully niece would have been thrown into prison by these people!
The most serious of these incidents was a fight, assault, and extortion. On a more serious note, it was his eldest brother's misfortune, marrying a woman with no talent or moral integrity. Not only did her ugly behavior and bad words bring disaster to the family, she also drove a daughter crazy.
The Ministry of Justice has never dealt with such a trivial matter.
Cheng Feng said, "Sir, do you think this is necessary?"
"No! In my humble opinion, our prefect can make a decision on this case, and based on the evidence we currently have and everyone's confessions, this case can be completely closed!" Captain Sun, eager to make a contribution, bravely stood with Cheng Feng. He had almost finished the case, and the confessions had been recorded, waiting for the prince's decision. He really wanted to tell their prefect that this was a good opportunity to make friends with the prince, and that they could handle the case, and not transfer it to the Ministry of Justice!
The prefect was an old and shrewd man, and he did not want to miss the opportunity to handle the case for the prince. However, from the prince's words and deeds, it seemed that there was something hidden in this case, and it was not as simple as written in the two confessions.
Cheng Feng also let them guess, so let it be embarrassing! "That Liu Dalan is my sister-in-law, and He Bao is my niece."
The prefect and Constable Sun were shocked, broke out in cold sweat, and immediately panicked.
The prefect's waist bent even more. He asked Captain Sun, "Did Captain Sun arrest the wrong person?"
Captain Sun was truly adamant. He flatly denied the allegation, even arguing confidently, "Impossible! The prince reported the case twice, both times because of those two stall owners. The bullies ran away quickly last time, and when I went there, they were gone, leaving the two stall owners dejected and complaining to themselves. This time, as soon as the prince's men reported the case, I took my men there, and we caught them red-handed. The two bullies were injuring people right in the middle of the night..."
"Wait a minute, explain yourself clearly. Who of my people reported the case? How come I didn't know?" Cheng Feng's memory was not so flawed that he couldn't explain it himself. He repeatedly emphasized that it was not him who reported the case, but Captain Sun just didn't believe him. When he knew about this, Liu Dalan and her daughter were already in the yamen, but the eloquent captain in front of him insisted that he was the one who reported the case. He must have made a mistake.
"It was a kid who came to report the crime. Cui was so anxious, and my whole team can testify to that. The kid also said that if we were too late and let the bully prince go, we would be blamed. So I didn't wait a moment and rushed out with my men. We were as light as a swallow, our steps were as fast as the wind, with swords hanging from our waists and leather boots on our feet..."
"Hey! Excuse me for interrupting you again. Which child reported the case?" There were no children among the servants in the palace, and Cheng Feng had never had any children around him. The only child he often saw was his son. Today, they went out together and never separated from each other. Cheng Feng couldn't think of which child came to report the case in his name.
The captain had a photographic memory, and he remembered every person he had mentioned clearly. "The child was wearing a ragged jacket, holding a large black bowl with a hole in it. His hands were particularly black, but his eyes were particularly big..."
Cheng Feng remembered, "The child you are talking about is Big Eyes."
Upon hearing this, Captain Sun looked at the prefect, with a hint of wanting to take credit for it: "Sir, look, I told you that the prince was forgetful, but this time it's correct, it's accurate. The person who came to report the case is the prince's man, named Big Eyes."
Cheng Feng argued, "He is not my man!" At this time, Cheng Feng even doubted how this man became the head of the police.
Captain Sun was responsible for arresting people, investigating cases, and collecting evidence. A single word from someone could be the key to his solving a case. He carefully considered Cheng Feng's words, not saying any more nonsense. At this moment, he was like recording Cheng Feng's confession. He said firmly and decisively, "But you know him."
Cheng Feng nodded.
Captain Sun immediately turned to the recorder and said, "Change it. Change the person who reported the case to someone the prince knows."
Cheng Feng corrected: "I don't know him. He's a little beggar on the street."
Unexpectedly, Captain Sun asked, "How did the prince get to know him?"
"He was a refugee. My wife and I were giving out porridge outside the city. He had an injury, and I treated him. Later, he set the dog meat restaurant's kitchen on fire, and I helped him. I saw him twice on the street after that, but that was all. So I wasn't familiar with him."
Captain Sun immediately said to the recorder, "Please correct the report again. Change the reporter to someone who has received a favor from the Crown Prince."
The registrar held the notebook in one hand and the brush in the other. He made a big cross on the word he had just written with a big stroke of the brush. Then, with a focused look and swift movements of the brush, he wrote down the words of Captain Sun.
Cheng Feng was stunned. He said to Captain Sun, "This isn't important! The key to the case is the crime itself, not who reported it!"
"It's very important. Many of our cases were solved by the people who reported them. From this little beggar named Big Eyes, we can see the prince's love and kindness. From refugees to beggars, the prince's kindness and power are so touching. The prince deserves to be enshrined in the imperial temple!"
Cheng Feng rolled his eyes at Captain Sun and said, "You're really flattering me. I'm not saying this to brag. What I want to say is that I didn't send that big-eyed police officer. I didn't report the case. I guess he caught up with it and came here."
This time it was the prefect and Constable Sun's turn to be stunned. The prefect had already pondered the matter several times in his head. He asked Cheng Feng cautiously, "Your Highness, I am a dull official. From what Your Highness said... is it that Big Eyes, who was grateful for the favor, came to report the case when he saw your people being beaten? It's not that Your Highness is putting his own family above his own and wants to bring his sister-in-law and niece to justice?"
At this time, the prefect and Captain Sun both realized that they had messed up.
Cheng Feng continued to tell them, "The He Ye who was beaten was also Liu Dalan's daughter. Even if you are handling the case according to the law, you can't beat them to a disability. If you go back and do this to them, they will be bloody. You won't torture them into confessing."
The prefect and Captain Sun were both dumbfounded. When Liu Dalan was roaring, she said that she was teaching her daughter a lesson, but unfortunately neither of them believed it.
