Chapter 656: Murder in the City

Jinling in the early morning is always immersed in a bustle, but this morning, it is a bit too lively!

Under Luo Haotian's strict torture, there has not been a major case in Jinling for a long time...... At least, that's the case on the surface.

Speaking of which, the most recent major case is also the largest one this year...... It was the accident of the Lin family's new paper mill, and Nangong Rong's cause of death.

But this morning, a major incident occurred, and all six people died at the door of a family......

In addition, there is also a dead person in the backyard of this family!

There were seven people in all, all of whom were killed. Such a big case, not to mention in a place like Jinling, or in other chaotic places, is enough to cause a great sensation......

The six people who died outside the door, all without exception, were slashed through the neck with a sharp weapon and killed with a knife. The blood was so bad that when it was found in the morning, it hadn't even coagulated!

And the man who died in the backyard was stabbed twice, one in the back and one in the neck......

The door of this house was surrounded by people, and driven by curiosity, there were many people rushing to see the excitement...... In less than a stick of incense, the news spread in the city!

There was no one in this family for a long time...... After the investigation of the scene, a lot of arrows were also found. These yamen soldiers who usually work for the tiger saw this situation, but they didn't know what was going on for a while.

After inquiry, I learned that the owner of this house is surnamed Chen, a native of Suzhou, and it is an empty house on weekdays. But if it is an empty house, how can this door be wide open from the inside? These soldiers are puzzled......

In fact, the owner of this house, a middle-aged man surnamed Chen, is also very lucky.

When he came to Jinling this time, he came alone in a low-key manner, and even his friends in Jinling City didn't know about it. And when he came to Jinling, it was not early, and he went directly to the house, so no one saw him.

This kind of thing happened at night, and Brother Shi was also in a good mood when he left, and deliberately opened the door to make the silver-headed snake think that he and Liu Ruyan had left, and also let the man surnamed Chen escape.

At that time, he heard a noise outside, and he hid in the room until he estimated that everyone outside was gone. When he went out to see the corpses all over the ground, he left the house overnight...... At this time, he has already walked on the way back to Suzhou!

He is smart, and he also knows what kind of character Luo Haotian is, if this kind of thing happens in his own house, even if he looks at the matter at the time, it will inevitably lead to imprisonment. In this case, it is better to leave early, no one knows that they have been here anyway......

As for the business with the Lin family...... It's better to wait until this matter is over, and talk about it later!

So, as soon as he left with such wit, the case became an unsolved case......

But the unsolved case is unsolved, how could Luo Haotian miss such a good opportunity to make money? At the sound of an order, all the people within fifteen zhang (about fifty meters) of this family were all grabbed at the gate of the prefect's mansion!

And those corpses were quickly transported away by the soldiers, leaving only a pool of blood......

But although these people in the yamen did not stay long and left, this matter did not end so quickly!

Such a big matter, not to mention the discussion of the people in the city, after Luo Haotian dealt with this matter, not long after returning to the prefect's mansion, Dong Qingyun came to him.

As the governor of the three provinces, if such a big thing happens in his own jurisdiction, he must report it to the imperial court!

In fact, at this time, dozens of refugees are dying every day in Yangzhou, which is definitely much more than the current people......

But those people were refugees, who died in the wilderness, and could have been killed by a fire. And these people in front of them ...... but he died in the city! The difference is huge.

The law of Daqing is relatively perfect, of course, this is also before.

Cases like this must first be investigated and handled by the local state government, and then reported to the governor, who then reports to the DPRK and Central Criminal Department...... If it causes turmoil and involves a wide range of people, the emperor will have to go through the trial himself......

If this matter had not been split in Daqing before, it would have at least been reported to the Criminal Department. Until now...... Even if Dong Qingyun reported to the Criminal Department, I'm afraid there will be no action!

In addition to Dong Qingyun going to Luo Haotian, Shen Wei also went to the Lin Mansion for the first time.

When she knew about this matter, her first reaction was that she felt that this matter was related to Brother Shi.

Yesterday, Brother Shi took Liu Ruyan to Yelian Village, and Dong Qingyun wrote to her about it as soon as he asked Qiao Dacang about it.

Originally, she was still thinking about how to explain the matter of Yelian Village to Shi Yuan, but as soon as she heard about it in the morning, her heart tightened......

Now all the forces in Jinling City are ready to move, but Jinling City is still peaceful, this situation makes her feel very bad, and she always feels that something will happen...... Now it seems that this is indeed the case.

Although she didn't see it with her own eyes, after listening to the description, she also knew that the death of those people was definitely very strange......

When she arrived at the Lin Mansion, Liu Ruyan had not left yet. It is also the reason why Brother Shi didn't say hello in the morning, so he went to Baifu.

Liu Ruyan was also up and down in her heart, so she decided to wait until Brother Shi came back to discuss it.

"What? This kind of thing happened? ”

Lin Yingyue hadn't heard of this matter yet, and when she heard Shen Wei say it, she subconsciously covered her mouth, a little incredulous.

And Liu Ruyan was also surprised when she listened to it. Although she was with Brother Shi last night and listened to what Brother Shi said, she didn't expect so many people to die......

"Sister Shen, are you saying that this matter has something to do with that stupid person?"

After being surprised, Lin Yingyue asked. At the same time, he also nervously clenched his shirt.

"Hmmm! Those people are not good people, and if they die in that kind of place, something must have happened...:..."Liu Ruyan nodded and said.

"But...... He came back with Miss Liu last night! How so? ”

Lin Yingyue heard it, but she pointed to Liu Ruyan next to her and said something.

When Shen Wei first came, she also heard Lin Yingyue tell Liu Ruyan's identity. But because they were concerned about asking Brother Shi about it, the two of them only simply exchanged two words, and now that they heard Lin Yingyue's words again, they turned their heads to look at Liu Ruyan......
