The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter
Chapter 272: The Verdict Has Come Out
Qiao Qingyun stepped into the clinic. His identity was special and almost all the adults in the city knew who he was.
Although he was implicated by his uncle and could not enter the officialdom in this life, his grandfather's former students are now influential figures in Kyoto, and no one would be so blind as to offend him.
"Master Feng, do you need me to recite the laws of Daxia to you?"
Qiao Qingyun glanced at County Magistrate Feng. The intimidation in this glance was probably more frightening than that of Lu Zhicheng, who held an official position.
County Magistrate Feng was speechless for a moment. He didn't expect to meet such a tough guy today. He was just a hunter in the village, but he knew quite a few people.
He was determined to solve the case and give justice to the deceased, but why were they all so biased?
"Sir Feng, if necessary, I will cooperate with the government to investigate the case, but my husband is pregnant and frightened, so it is really inconvenient for him to go to the county government. Please forgive me."
Yan Zhenshen was very grateful to Lu Zhicheng and Qiao Qingyun, but in order to avoid being gossiped about, it would be okay for him to go along with them.
Anyway, the man was killed by lightning. What can we find out by investigating further?
He glanced at Qiao Qingyun and Lu Zhicheng, and said righteously: "A man of integrity is not afraid of his own shadow. I believe the county magistrate will always give a fair decision."
After hearing what Yan Zhenshen said, County Magistrate Feng became even more angry. He called him the county magistrate as soon as he opened his mouth, which showed that he did not take him seriously at all.
Qiao Qingyun smiled and said, "You are right. Our county magistrate is very observant and will certainly not wrongly accuse a good person."
The two of them sang in unison to set the stage for the county magistrate, and at the same time they were also mocking County Magistrate Feng.
"Okay, then you come with me." County Magistrate Feng understood the meaning of their words, but the situation had already come to this point. If he couldn't find out the reason, he would lose all his dignity and face.
Yan Zhenshen didn't leave directly, but said to Chu Xiao: "Wait for me here, I will be back soon."
Chu Xiao was speechless. How come a county magistrate suddenly appeared? He did not play by the rules at all. All the things they discussed on the way were of no use.
If he had known that he had to go to the government office, he would not have pretended to be sick.
"I'll go with you." Although Chu Xiao knew that he would not be punished just because of County Magistrate Feng, he was the one who caused the trouble, and he couldn't bear to be left waiting here.
"Be obedient." Yan Zhenshen squeezed Chu Xiao's hand.
"Don't worry, Xiao'er, we'll go with you to take a look." Lu Zhicheng also said to comfort him.
County Magistrate Feng wanted to urge people to hurry up, but when he met Qiao Qingyun's gaze, he held his words back.
Anning Town is not very big, and although trivial incidents are not uncommon, there are not many homicides.
Especially for such a bizarre thing, almost everyone who had been to the mountain was taken to the county government office, dozens of people.
The lobby of the county government office could not accommodate so many people. Only the village chief Wang Dabing and the two villagers who ran up the mountain first stood inside. Everyone else was waiting outside the county government office.
At this moment, the coroner had performed an autopsy on the spot and confirmed that the cause of death was indeed lightning. And judging by the wounds, he was struck by lightning twice.
The villagers were able to confirm that they did hear two muffled thunders at the time, which was why they went to the mountain to find out what was going on.
The village chief was kneeling in the hall at this time, and he couldn't help feeling sick when he saw the coroner turning the charred corpse over and over, cutting and slicing it.
Besides Wang Dabing, the other two who were also kneeling in the lobby were in a similar situation, covering their mouths and noses and not daring to look at all.
"Three bamboo sticks and two bite marks were found." The coroner reported the results, saying that these were minor injuries and not likely to be fatal.
The county magistrate nodded and asked the villagers about what they knew. After taking all this into account, he was able to make a rough idea.
The county magistrate slammed the gavel and said, "Are you telling the truth?"
"Sir, everything I said is true." The village chief replied quickly, and the other villagers followed suit.
"Is the owner of the hunting dog here?" The county magistrate knew who raised the hunting dog in Anning Village, but since he had asked this question, he couldn't just reveal it.
If no one responded at this time, the county magistrate would probably be unhappy, but the farmers had a natural fear of the government office, so no one spoke for a while.
Wang Wu looked around and saw that none of the Yan family members had come, so he could only bite the bullet and stand up: "Sir, I am Wang Wu from Anning Village. Hunter Yan's husband was frightened because of pregnancy and had to be sent to the clinic for treatment. But I can testify that the hunting dogs raised by the Yan family have never hurt anyone."
The other villagers also nodded. Although the wolf cub was a little scary, no matter who passed by the Yan family, it would just look up at them. Sometimes it didn't even raise its eyes, but it never bared its teeth at anyone.
If the wolf cub shows any ferocious look towards anyone, the villagers will not let the wolf run around.
The village chief also looked up and said, "Sir, the man from the Yan family went up the mountain to look for his puppy. The puppy was brutally killed and a local dog was also injured. The man had a knife in his hand. Xiao Ge'er, a young man with a body, would not be able to run away. The hounds were also protecting their masters, so they would bite."
The first person to go up the mountain nodded again and again: "Yes, sir, we heard someone shouting for help at that time, and I think it was the husband of the Yan family who shouted."
Although they both felt that the voice was not right, it was normal for people's voices to change pitch when they were nervous and scared.
At this time, a yamen runner whispered to the county magistrate: "That's not a hound, it's a wolf."
The county magistrate rolled his eyes at him and said, "I have already understood. The deceased was carrying a knife and wanted to hurt people. The hound was protecting its master and was not at fault. The deceased was struck by lightning and died on the spot. This is a punishment from heaven."
He had just raised the gavel to make the final judgment when someone came in from outside. County Magistrate Feng strode into the county hall and said, "Sir, I think there is something fishy going on. We shouldn't make such a hasty conclusion."
The county magistrate glanced at the new county magistrate and ignored him completely.
The gavel slammed down: "Each village will check to find out the identity of the deceased. Carrying a knife to commit a crime is a serious offense. Find out the cause and then make a final judgment."
"The deceased has committed a crime that cannot be repaid. Anning Village has been implicated for no reason. This year's taxes will be exempted by 10%. The Yan family suffered the greatest loss. I will make the decision to exempt them from taxes, head taxes, and corvée taxes for three years."
County Magistrate Feng was very angry at being ignored like this: "Sir, aren't you too hasty in judging this case? I seriously suspect that the Yan family is seeking revenge because their hounds were killed."
The county magistrate glanced at the coroner, who immediately said, "I checked the puppy's wounds. According to my guess, the time of death would not be more than two hours."
The county magistrate looked at the village chief again, and the village chief immediately replied: "The thunder fell at 3:30 pm. I go to the fields at that time every day, and I will never make a mistake."
"At almost the same time, I would like to ask County Magistrate Feng, how can a pregnant girl take revenge?" The county magistrate sneered, "Are you still going to say that Brother Chu is not an ordinary person and can attract lightning from the clear sky? If this is true, I think His Majesty will definitely treat him as a distinguished guest."
County Magistrate Feng was speechless for a moment, and felt very uncomfortable. He was once a second-class Jinshi...
At a glance, he saw Qiao Qingyun, who was extremely eye-catching among the crowd.
He sighed. He thought that they could become soulmates as they were in the same situation, but unfortunately, they had different ideas and could not work together.
