The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy

As dusk deepened, a strong smell of bitter tea seeds emanated from the Jingzhao Yin's yamen, followed by a series of muffled groans.

"Woo! This smell is so weird, could it be some kind of poison?"

"Coroner Qin brought this medicine package personally. He said it's for refreshing. Drink it quickly. We'll have something to do later!"

"Hey! In the past, after we caught the murderer, we would rest for a few hours, lock him up in the prison first to kill his energy, and then interrogate him, which would be more effective."

"That's why your efficiency is so low." Qin Miaoxi strode in, her eyes immediately falling on the decoction. She immediately clicked her tongue twice, "You can't do this! You're so slow even when drinking the decoction. How are we going to handle the training camp later?"

"Training?"

Qin Miaoxi said seriously, "Yes! Lord Shi asked me to develop an intensive training plan for you and others to help you catch up with the brothers in the Ministry of Justice."

Everyone was curious, "Why aren't they brothers from the Dali Temple?"

Qin Miaoxi burst out laughing. "With your current situation, you still want to be in the Dali Temple? Let's wait and see if you can surpass the Ministry of Justice! At least... they are never afraid of drinking soup and medicine."

Everyone: "..."

No man could stand such humiliation, and he angrily drank the bitter tea in his hand.

He put the bowl down heavily and looked at Qin Miaoxi steadily, as if in silent resistance: Mother, we are not cowards.

Qin Miaoxi finally showed a satisfied smile on her face, "Well, now that we've finished drinking, let's get started."

What followed was a series of arrangements that made everyone dizzy and sick.

Suddenly, Qin Miaoxi changed the subject and said, "Forget it. I know my request is difficult for you. After all, it was from more than ten years ago. There is nothing you can do if you can't find it."

“Who said that!?”

As long as they met Qin Miaoxi's thoughtful gaze, no matter how many protests they had, they turned into motivation. They promised with fighting spirit: "Coroner Qin, just wait. The brothers will find the person for you right away."

Watching the figures quickly leaving, Qin Miaoxi secretly complained in her heart: Haha, little bastards! I can't deal with you.

When she returned to the hall, she saw Pan Di kneeling on the ground, crying pitifully, and standing next to her was the indignant second prince of Yanhuang Kingdom.

"Master Shi," the Second Prince said angrily, "Is my kidnapping more important now, or are the deaths of a few poor people more important?"

Shi Xinzhe fixed his gaze on him and said righteously, "Second Prince, your case is under the jurisdiction of the Dali Temple. I have already notified them, and they are on their way."

After saying this, he instructed the two yamen runners in the hall, "Please leave now, Second Prince, and do not disturb me while I am trying the murder case."

"You dare!" the second prince was furious.

Although the second prince resisted angrily, the yamen runners were also very fierce and did not treat him as a human being at all. They carried him out and his curses could be heard from afar.

"Pan Di is my woman. Your Highness will not allow you to interrogate her privately. Let her go..."

Soon the sound disappeared into the air. Seeing the Second Prince being taken away, Pan Di's shoulders shook even more violently, and he sobbed, "Sir, I...I really haven't concealed anything. I really didn't know Zhang Da before!"

Before he could finish his words, he burst into tears.

Qin Miaoxi walked up to her, squatted down and met her eyes. "If you didn't know him, why did you get pregnant with his child?"

Shi Xinzhe's pupils shrank sharply, and his eyes subconsciously looked at her abdomen. It looked flat and he couldn't tell whether she had a child or not.

Pan Di's eyes were red with grievance, "Sir, why do you say that to me? I am the Second Prince's woman. Even if there is a child, it is the Second Prince's child. How could it be the child of a guard?"

Qin Miaoxi looked at her indifferently, took out a set of golden needles from her bosom, and said lightly: "Perhaps you don't know, my sect has a unique secret technique. As long as I use a silver needle to extract the blood of your unborn baby, I can confirm who is the father of your unborn child through blood test."

Shi Xinzhe pursed his lips tightly. He had lived for so long but had never heard that silver needles could be used to extract blood from a fetus that had been formed for several days. Was she trying to trick him?

At this moment, Pan Di's eyes were dazed for a moment, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Really? That's great, it can prove that the child is the second prince's."

Shi Xinzhe immediately looked at Qin Miaoxi worriedly. If it was really proved that the child was the second prince, then they would not be able to continue the trial.

Qin Miaoxi sighed in disappointment, "It seems that you still refuse to admit it now. Are you worthy of Zhang Da who helped you kill people?"

"My lord, why do you have to keep staring at me? Could it be that..." Pan Di was even more aggrieved than her. After a pause, he continued, "You also adore the Second Prince, so you want to kill me? Drive me away from the Second Prince."

Qin Miaoxi smiled instead of getting angry, "Anyway, you have nothing to do with Zhang Da, right?"

"Correct."

"The child is not big enough."

"Of course, how could the father of my child be a murderer."

"Papa~"

Qin Miaoxi clapped her hands repeatedly and nodded in satisfaction. "Okay, just admit it. Zhang Da, did you hear what she said?"

Pan Di's pupils suddenly trembled, and he looked in shock at Zhang Da who was being escorted up behind him.

Shi Xinzhe frowned. He knew that Zhang Da had not spoken a word since he was brought back. No matter how they interrogated or tortured him, he was like a puppet and would never open his mouth.

If we bring him to court now, can we speak?

At this moment, Zhang Da's eyes were staring at Pan Di, and the dullness in his eyes also became bright, and it didn't look like he didn't know him.

Qin Miaoxi stepped forward and stood between the two of them, and Zhang Da immediately showed an angry look.

"You shouldn't resent me. It was this woman who said she didn't know him, and even the child wasn't yours."

"You..." Pan Di had just uttered a word when Qin Miaoxi flicked her fingertips and she was immediately muted.

Qin Miaoxi took the initiative to suppress Pan Di's voice, "Don't quibble, we have compared your shoe prints and confirmed that your shoe prints are exactly the same as the ones left at the scene."

Zhang Da finally spoke up: "I've already admitted that I killed the person, what are you still investigating?"

"No."

Unexpectedly, Qin Miaoxi shook her head in disagreement. "Our investigation doesn't end when we find the murderer. Why did you kill people? Why did you poison them with arsenic? If you can't answer these questions truthfully, then we have reason to suspect that you were instructed by someone. In that case, you are only an accomplice, and the person who instructed you is the real murderer."

Zhang Da pursed his lips and said, "I don't know what you are talking about. I just can't stand those people. You can think whatever you want."

Qin Miaoxi looked at him pitifully, "You are indeed quite pitiful. You killed someone for such a heartless woman. In the future, your child will have to call someone else his father, and that man is the one who humiliated you."

"you……"

His Adam's apple rolled violently, his eyes instantly filled with uncontrollable rage, and his clenched fists began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Shut up! You are not allowed to talk about her like that!" He roared at the top of his lungs, and the shackles on his body made a harsh sound with the violent movements.

Qin Miaoxi walked calmly to Pan Di's side, took out a paper bag from her arms and threw it in front of Zhang Da.

"Do you know what this is?"

Zhang Da didn't look at the paper bag, but stared straight at Qin Miaoxi who was blocking Pan Di's figure.

"This is the arsenic she gave you, the same poison you used to kill her family of three." She whispered, "You probably don't know why she carried it with her, do you? Since you were going to die, I'll tell you the truth. She was going to personally deliver your final meal, and she'd sprinkled it with arsenic to make it look like you were committing suicide out of fear of punishment."

"No, you're trying to trick me, haha! I don't understand what you're saying."

Qin Miaoxi glanced at him with pity and shouted towards the door, "Come in!"

Soon, a yamen runner came in carrying a food box. "Sir, this is Qin the Coroner. These are the fine wine and food Pan Di ordered from Jiangnan Tower."

"Well, put it in front of Zhang Da and let him take a good look."

The food box was opened, revealing delicious dishes. Tears welled up in Zhang's eyes for no apparent reason.

"If I'm not mistaken, these dishes are your favorites!"

Qin Miaoxi didn't care whether he listened or not, and continued, "Do you know when these meals were ordered? Before Pan Di returned to the inn and was kidnapped by you, she wanted you dead from the beginning."
