The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy
Chapter 68: Playing tricks to get clues
As the sky gradually darkened, the constable and the yamen runners packed up their things and left Fengshui Village.
In the village late at night, there were still a few houses with candles lit, and there were whispers of conversations in the houses. It seemed that what happened during the day had brought a great shock to the villagers.
The village chief wandered around his yard for a while, looked up at the sky and sighed, then walked towards the back village with his hands behind his back.
When he arrived at the back village, there were already three or five men standing there. None of them spoke and the atmosphere was very depressing.
After seeing the village chief, they gathered around and asked one after another: "Village chief, what's going on?"
The village chief angrily scolded: "You ask me, who should I ask?"
One of the men growled at him, "I've looked at this place. It's clearly a trap. This back village is a cemetery. Who would hunt here?"
The village chief's face turned very gloomy. "You mean, I did it."
"Village Chief, don't be so quick to deny it. You were the one who brought up this matter, so it's only natural for us to doubt you."
"You're so right, you're just destroying the bridge after crossing it. You've taken advantage of us and now you're turning your back on us!"
Someone interrupted the village chief, "Everyone, stop. We've found 21 bodies in the moat near Jingzhao. We suspect they were washed into the moat. We've already started an investigation."
"No wonder the people from the Dali Temple arrived so quickly. They must have ambushed them in advance."
“It’s not because the kind-hearted Qin came to the village to deliver food that the village came to rescue people after they were trapped.”
"You're stupid! How can there be so many coincidences? And there are also 21 bodies there. Don't you think the number is a bit coincidental?"
The village chief said solemnly, "So what if it's a coincidence? It has nothing to do with us."
Several people pressed on, "It's really okay. Village chief, you know that place collapsed due to heavy rain a few days ago. Those are probably them. Five years ago..."
"Shut up!"
The village chief suddenly shouted at everyone. He stared at them fiercely and warned them, "If you don't want to be stabbed in the back in the future, then keep this matter to yourself and don't mention it again."
In an instant, everyone shut up and never dared to mention what happened five years ago again.
"Everyone, go back. Don't panic just because you saw the government. We don't know anything. If the government is capable, they can investigate it themselves. If they can't find anything, this matter will naturally be left unresolved."
The village chief said ruthlessly, "If any of you dare to reveal your flaws and ruin the village's hard-earned opportunity, don't blame me for being rude."
Several people were intimidated by the village chief and expressed their willingness not to mention it again.
Seeing everyone like this, he let a few people go back.
I listened to the footsteps getting farther and farther away, and the wind rustled through the woods. The hazy cemetery, silhouetted against the shadows of the trees, looked particularly eerie and terrifying.
He looked deeply at the place deep in the forest that was collapsed by the rain. When he turned to leave, a soft and hoarse voice suddenly echoed in the forest.
"Lin Feng, you've hurt us so badly."
Lin Feng is the village chief's real name. At this moment, he looked at the dark woods in horror, but did not see a single person.
However, the sound continued to approach, and when it sounded again, it seemed to linger in my ears.
"You killed us and scattered our remains, preventing us from resting in peace. I demand your life."
Lin Feng felt a burning pain on his face instantly. He touched it gently and immediately felt a warmth mixed with a piercing pain.
is blood.
He fell to his knees and begged for mercy, "It wasn't me who hurt you. It wasn't me."
"If not you, then who is it? I'm going to kill you."
"It was them. They were the ones who sent you in. They are the real culprits who killed you."
The sinister voice continued, "If you weren't behind this, how could they have harmed us?"
He wept bitterly and knelt down to beg for mercy, "No, it's not me. After all, your death was well deserved. If you have any complaints, go to them! It's no use coming to me."
"Yes, I want to go back to see my son and grandson."
The village chief immediately responded, "They just left. Go quickly. They can take you home. Don't look for me. I have nothing to do with you."
After yelling the last sentence, he ran away in a panic.
The forest returned to silence again. At this time, two black shadows jumped down from the tree, stepping on the leaves and making a crackling sound, which was extremely harsh in the dark forest.
The moonlight shone down, and the faint light fell on the faces of the two people. They were Qin Miaoxi and Lu Qingchen.
Lu Qingchen leaned against the tree trunk, holding a piece of weed in his mouth and said, "Is this the good show you were talking about?"
Qin Miaoxi nodded, "Isn't this beautiful?"
This time, she grasped several key points from the conversation between the village chief and others.
First, something did happen five years ago, and the few people just mentioned are closely related; second, the village chief knows everything and is even likely the leader of this case; third, the twenty-one corpses in the moat were washed away from Fengshui Village, and this murder case is extremely related to family relationships. It is a shameful and embarrassing thing, and it is very likely that the elderly were not treated well; fourth, they are not aware of what is in the trap, so there may be another force or another person in this case.
Just these few points have given her great inspiration.
Lu Qingchen gave her a strange look and asked, "By the way, how did you know about this scene?"
Qin Miaoxi smiled without saying anything. She noticed that the village chief had a strange look in his eyes, and then heard him complaining in his heart that he would come here in the evening to teach those people a lesson. This was why he acted scary and told the truth just now.
Qin Miaoxi looked at him deeply and said in an unfathomable way, "It's not our destiny yet. I don't like to hear more talk."
Lu Qingchen watched her leave in a daze, and kicked the tree trunk next to him angrily, and a black shadow fell down immediately.
It was Wen Zhu, who stood straight in a disheveled state, "Master!"
"Tell me, what does it mean when she says we're not destined to be together?" He muttered to himself again, "She and I are already engaged. If we're not destined to be together, how can we still be together?"
Wen Zhu looked at his master carefully, and his rage was mixed with a bit of frustration and a hint of self-doubt.
He pondered and said, "Maybe... we're not married yet, so it's not our destiny?"
Lu Qingchen suddenly understood, "That must be the case. This woman is really eager to get married! I told you she definitely can't bear to leave me."
Wen Zhu: “…”
Sir, sometimes we can be less mysterious and confident. It makes people feel awkward.
If Lu Qingchen could hear his inner voice, he would probably answer confidently: Innate.
After getting a satisfactory answer, Lu Qingchen took another 2.58 million steps, feeling proud and happy, as if Qin Miaoxi had confessed to him again.
"Crench!"
He looked down and saw a letter under his feet. When he opened it, his pupils shrank suddenly.
"Wen Zhu, come here."
Wen Zhu responded and stepped forward.
"Your Majesty!"
Wen Zhu knelt down without saying a word, then belatedly asked, "Master, what...what happened?"
Lu Qingchen said proudly, "I beg you to do me a favor."
Wen Zhu: “…”
