Chapter 569 Strange Case 36
Li Zhutou continued, "Zhang Zhiwen, the son-in-law of the Zhang family, is a talented man, although he has meritorious fame, but his family is poor, even if he wants to continue to study and take the exam, it is not an easy task, so he joined the Zhang family.
When investigating the case, I once heard that Zhang Cuilian was arrogant and domineering at home, and did not take Zhang Zhiwen in her eyes.
If according to this statement, Zhang Zhiwen was too angry at home, and he coveted the Zhang family's property, so it was really not surprising to do such a thing.
Therefore, the first person I suspected was Zhang Zhiwen. ”
Speaking of this, Li Zhutou sighed, "I followed this clue to investigate, but unfortunately, I found nothing." ”
After hearing Li Zhutou's words, Lu Dashi asked a little strangely, "Brother Li, how can this be, listening to what you say, I also think that this Zhang Zhiwen is indeed suspicious, if you follow this clue to investigate, you will find something after all, how can you find nothing?" ”
Li Zhutou shook his head, "On the night of the crime, Zhang Zhiwen was not at home, but went to drink with friends, he knew about this matter, or the people of the Zhang family went to find him, he would know." ”
When Lu Dashi heard this, his heart suddenly moved, his brows couldn't help frowning, he pondered for a moment before he asked slowly.
"Brother Li, you go on, Zhang Zhiwen went to drink all night, during this period, did he leave halfway?"
Li Zhutou shook his head, "It's useless, even if he leaves, it's just a small relief, and even if he goes, it won't take much time." ”
Lu Dashi nodded, "Could it be that they have been drinking all night?" ”
Li Zhutou nodded, "This can be proved by the few people they drank together, and it was only in the early morning that they fell asleep because they drank too much." ”
Hearing this, Lu Dashi picked up the wine bowl on the table and took a sip slowly, pondering Li Zhutou's words with the pungency of this sip of wine.
After a while, Lu Dashi turned his head to look at Li Zhutou, and asked slowly, "Brother Li, in addition to Zhang Zhiwen's suspicion, there should be someone who is suspicious, right?" ”
Hearing Lu Dashi's question, Li Zhutou nodded, "Yes, there is more than one." ”
Speaking of this, Li Zhutou's tone paused before continuing, "In addition to Zhang Zhiwen, there is also Master Zhang's younger brother Zhang Kecheng.
Although Master Zhang is rich, he has worked hard for himself.
Master Zhang's younger brother Zhang Kecheng, although the two are brothers, they are more than ten years apart, and they are a prodigal son, who is idle every day and does not do his job.
Master Zhang hates to see his younger brother the most, and once said to his face not to let him come again.
Because as long as Zhang Kecheng comes, it will definitely be a matter of borrowing money, and the money lent out will not have to be expected to come back.
Although Zhang Kecheng doesn't have much money, he spends money very happily, and for such a younger brother, Master Zhang naturally dislikes it very much.
I once heard the descendants of the Zhang family say that several times, Zhang Kecheng was beaten by his brother. ”
Speaking of this, Li Zhutou's tone paused, and then continued, "I have heard that Zhang Kecheng has threatened to kill his brother several times, which shows how bad the relationship between the two brothers is!" ”
Lu Dashi nodded, "Is it for this reason that you doubt him?" ”
Li Zhutou nodded with a wry smile, "That's true, Master Zhang is rich, but he doesn't give his brother flowers, it's not strange for someone like Zhang Kecheng to do this kind of thing in a fit of anger." ”
Although he knew that this clue didn't work very well, Lu Dashi still asked, "Brother Li, did you follow this clue?" ”
Li Zhutou nodded, "Of course I checked, if I don't even check such an obvious clue, then there will be no clue at all." ”
Speaking of this, Li Zhutou's tone paused, and he said with a wry smile again, "However, after some searching, I found that Zhang Kecheng did not have the time to commit the crime.
On the day of the crime, Zhang Kecheng was broken by someone, even if he wanted to commit the crime, I am afraid it would be impossible! ”
Hearing this, Lu Dashi asked suspiciously, "Is it really such a coincidence, on the day of the crime, Zhang Kecheng's leg was broken?" ”
Speaking of this, Lu Dashi's tone paused before continuing, "Brother Li, could there be other reasons for this?"
For example, although Zhang Kecheng was beaten, his leg was not actually broken, and during this time, he was going to do the case, and when the case was completed, he was ruthlessly breaking his leg, so as not to let everyone doubt him? ”
After listening to Lu Dashi's words, Li Zhutou's eyes suddenly lit up, clapped his hands violently, and shouted loudly, "That's right, why didn't I think of ......, Zhao Mingliang, you go and check for me now, whether Zhang Kecheng's leg has been broken ......." ”
Before Li Zhutou's words were finished, he was interrupted by Lu Dashi waving his hand, "Brother Li, Zhao Mingliang has been sent by you to find the whereabouts of Rouge, have you forgotten?" ”
Li Zhutou woke up at this time, and scratched his head a little embarrassed, "This happiness, just forget about this matter, Brother Lu, you are so good, you can think of this kind of thing, come, brother, I will toast you!" ”
When Lu Dashi heard this, he hurriedly picked up the wine bowl and drank it with Li Zhutou, and after putting down the wine bowl, he said solemnly, "Brother Li, what I just said is just a possibility, although you can check it, you must not delay other clues." ”
After listening to Lu Dashi's words, Li Zhutou shook his head with a wry smile, "Clues, I have checked all the clues for more than 20 days, but I have found nothing, and now, there are no clues." ”
When Lu Dashi heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Could it be that there are only two suspects in the murder of Zhang Cuilian, Zhang Zhiwen and Zhang Kecheng?" ”
Li Zhutou shook his head, "No, there are still people." ”
Speaking of this, Li Zhutou's tone paused, he thought for a while, and then continued, "There is also a subordinate of the Zhang family, this subordinate once stole a few taels of silver in the mansion, but was caught, Zhang Cuilian was angry, so he had his arm broken and expelled him from the mansion. ”
When Lu Dashi heard this, he asked a little strangely, "When did this happen, and does it have anything to do with these cases?" ”
Li Zhutou nodded, "When this person's arm was broken, it was more than two months ago.
Because he committed this kind of thing, after leaving Zhang's mansion, he never found any work, and he heard about it quite miserably.
And after more than a month of cultivation, presumably his arm has recovered, if he is dissatisfied with Zhang Cuilian and secretly hates Zhang Cuilian for poisoning him, then, on impulse, it should be very likely that he did this kind of thing. ”
