The mistress just wanted to be bad, but she took off after being replaced

Chapter 181 You are making something out of nothing

After Old Man Fang fell into a deep sleep, he slowly opened the door of the old wardrobe and carefully took out the clothes one by one, as if he was performing a silent ritual.

The clothes, bearing the scent of time, were placed one by one in the center of the courtyard, creating the illusion of hastily packing bags in a panic, setting the stage for the crime that was about to be committed.

Then he walked into the house. Each step seemed extremely heavy, but his heart seemed to be burning with a dark fire that could not be extinguished.

There was a cold light flashing in his eyes, and at that moment, the whole world seemed to be silent.

After doing all this, he walked out again, observing the old courtyard gate with sharp eyes.

He gently removed the bolt and cleverly stuck it between the cracks of the door, making it look like it was firmly locked from the inside, perfectly hiding his tracks.

If neighbors passed by inadvertently, they would just think that Old Man Fang was sleeping peacefully and would not be aware of the potential danger at all.

When the first ray of morning light broke through the night, he quietly appeared in the nearby alley, hiding in the shadows, and waiting patiently.

Until someone noticed the unusual silence and came to check in panic, he acted quickly, as if everything was within his calculations.

He pretended to push the door hard, and his expression of anxiety and helplessness was just right, making everyone mistakenly believe that the door was locked from the inside.

Then, using his strong physique, he rammed the seemingly solid door open with a sound, and all the disguise collapsed in an instant, leaving behind shock and suspicion.

When Hu Guangfeng heard this detailed description, his face suddenly turned as pale as the first snow in winter.

His heart felt as if it was pierced by countless tiny needles; every word accurately hit his innermost being.

How could this woman see so thoroughly into every detail of his careful planning?

He felt a chill, as if she could see through all his thoughts and there was no secret left.

"You are slandering me! I have never done those things. You are just making them up!"

He tried his best to defend himself, his voice filled with panic that was hard to conceal.

Facing his denial, Sheng Junwei raised a stern smile, "Without solid evidence, how could I easily identify you? Your schemes and tricks cannot deceive the eyes of justice."

There was unquestionable power in her words, as if they could directly touch Hu Guangfeng's soul that was blinded by sin.

For such a ruthless character who regarded human life as worthless, she could almost feel the corruption emanating from the depths of his soul.

"Remember the bar I mentioned, and the drugs you bought? You buried the wine flask under the roots of the old locust tree in your yard. The soil can cover up the evidence, but the ingredients of the drugs will not dissipate easily. Just irrigate it a little and find an experienced coroner to test it, and the truth will come out."

"The most decisive evidence is the knife you used to kill Old Man Fang. It is lying quietly in your bag. As long as we compare the shape of the blade and the wound, the evidence is irrefutable. You can't argue even if you have a hundred reasons."

Following Lord Peng's low-pitched command, the detectives on the side acted quickly, and Hu Guangfeng's idea of ​​escaping was instantly shattered.

These well-trained detectives all have many years of experience in the underworld, so it would only take a flash for them to deal with a criminal like him.

Hu Guangfeng was eventually subdued and Sheng Junwei's mission came to an end.

She turned and left, returning to her quiet residence. On the other side, in the prime minister's residence, a new conspiracy was quietly brewing.

On this day, not long after Sheng Junwei entered the Ministry of Justice, officials from the Dali Temple hurriedly delivered a case file.

The appearance of this case file made Sheng Junwei feel a little unhappy. After all, there were still piles of unprocessed cases on her desk.

"I still have a lot of files to go through."

She complained softly that although she was capable enough to handle the heavy workload, if there were always cases of people cutting in line, when would this endless task end?

However, the captain Song, Song Zhang, who came, had a sincere face. He was not displeased by Sheng Junwei's criticism at all. Instead, he explained with a smile: "Master Sheng, you misunderstood. This is not a new case, but the follow-up information about the case in Linshan County. Recently, we have conducted a thorough investigation in Linshan County. Not only have we uncovered many unjust, false and wrong cases and redressed them one by one, but we have also discovered a large number of cases that the county magistrate had concealed for a long time. Now, justice has been served for all the victims. This case is the first clue you have discovered, so please review it first and then file it."

After saying this, he handed over the case file respectfully, his eyes full of affirmation and trust in Sheng Junwei's abilities.

Sheng Junwei nodded gently, with a hint of understanding and consideration in her eyes: "Okay, I will take it back and study it carefully. Once I have finished reading it, I will return it to you immediately."

"Please do not trouble Master Sheng to do it yourself. I am waiting here respectfully. No matter how long it takes, I am willing to wait for your news."

The subordinate was extremely terrified, and his tone was full of gratitude towards Sheng Junwei for her consideration.

Sheng Junwei heard this and a helpless smile flashed across her brows: "..."

I originally wanted to take this opportunity to take a short break, but now it seems that with such persistence, even a moment of slacking off has become a luxury.

She had originally planned to solve the current case first and then make other arrangements, but now it seems that she has to turn her attention to the long-pending case files in Linshan County.

Although I feel a little unhappy, it is my duty and I cannot delay even a little.

Sheng Junwei had heard about the absurd behavior of the Linshan County Magistrate, but when she was actually faced with those shocking case files recording the crimes, her expression became even more solemn.

During his six-year term, the county magistrate corroded the land like a termite, soliciting and accepting bribes, bullying the villagers, shielding bullies, and using all kinds of despicable means.

In just a few years, hundreds of people lost their lives indirectly because of his protection. Behind these cold numbers are broken families and unexpected disasters.

The tragedy of Luo Ming's family is just a tiny part of this huge darkness. What's worse, some families were completely destroyed because of his atrocities. Not only were their families broken up, but even their last bit of food and clothing was deprived by the greedy hands.

Even if the truth comes to light and the real culprit is brought to justice, the once protective umbrella - the Linshan County Magistrate will soon receive the punishment he deserves. However, those innocent lives that have been lost will never see the light of day again.

The amount of dirty silver seized was staggering, amounting to hundreds of thousands of taels. Such a huge sum of money was enough to prove the greed and depravity of the county magistrate.

Now, all the ill-gotten gains have been confiscated and put into the national treasury, which can be regarded as a kind of comfort to the victims.

Sheng Junwei slowly closed the case file. The heaviness in her heart seemed to intensify as the pages closed. The profound meaning of her master's teachings in the past seemed to be given new life at this moment.
