Chapter 791: Shortcut
After everyone learned more about the murder, Hua Lang immediately asked the official to investigate whether Mrs. Bai had borrowed a fast horse for Chen Agou that night, and whether there was a shortcut in the vicinity.
This investigation lasted until the evening, and finally the results were obtained.
Mrs. Bai did not lend a fast horse to Chen Agou, which the official said very surely, because at that time, the master was already deep, if there was a fast horse passing by in the village, the villagers could hear the sound, but the villagers in the whole village did not hear the sound of horses' hooves, and they confirmed it to the doctor, the doctor said that Chen Agou did not ride a horse when he looked for him.
If you don't have horseback riding, you just have to see if you take a shortcut.
When the official who investigated the matter returned, he said that he had found a shortcut and could save half the time.
The road was long away from the village, and there were three roads after leaving the village, one of which was relatively flat and the longest when used, and the other was a rough but time-saving one.
If you go that way, you can get a doctor after you kill someone.
In this way, Chen Agou's suspicion is very serious, so Bao Zheng immediately sent someone to escort Chen Agou over.
And when the official went to detain Chen Agou, Wen Meng asked with some curiosity: "If Bai Qiye was really killed by Chen Agou, why did he go to ask for a doctor again?" ”
Regarding Wen Meng's question, Hua Lang smiled faintly: "It is very likely that after he killed someone, he felt that it was necessary to find a reason for him to have an alibi, so he went to the doctor again, maybe he didn't think about asking the doctor before, he probably didn't want the child in his wife's womb from the beginning." ”
Hanalang's words are a bit ruthless, but it is extremely likely that this is how things will be.
After the official escorted Chen Agou over, Bao Zheng's attitude towards him changed greatly, Bao Zheng looked at him and asked sharply, "Did you kill Bai Qiye?" ”
Chen Agou shook his head again and again, and said with a panicked face: "No, absolutely not, and I have an alibi, I have already said this, my lord is clear, I really didn't kill anyone." ”
For Chen Agou's words, Bao Zheng snorted coldly and said: "We have already investigated and found out that there is a shortcut to ask for a doctor from outside the village, which can save half of the time, and it is okay for you to kill someone and then ask for a doctor." ”
After hearing this, Chen Agou's face suddenly panicked, and he said again and again: "My lord is clear, my wife had a fetal gas that night, how could I have the heart to kill someone, please don't frame the grass people." ”
Bao Zheng saw that Chen Agou still refused to confess honestly, and he was even more angry in his heart, and said: "We have investigated and found out, the man who cheated with Madame Bai is you, you said you have no intention of killing?" ”
Hearing this, Chen Agou's expression was very surprised, as if he didn't believe what Bao Zheng said at all.
At this time, Hua Lang sneered: "The man who cheated on Madam Bai is you, right?" ”
Chen Agou wanted to speak and stopped, and after a long time, he asked rhetorically: "What about the evidence?" ”
"Someone saw you coming out of the back door of Bai Qiye's house with your own eyes, and you were disheveled, how do you explain it?"
Chen Agou's eyes widened, he seemed to feel that he had been fooled, and he couldn't come up with a word to refute it, from the question Bao Zheng asked at the beginning, to the words that Hua Lang said now, it seems that he is waiting for his refutation.
Chen Agou was a little helpless and said, "I'...... It's true that I have a leg with Madame Bai, but I didn't kill Bai Qiye, how could I kill someone! ”
Hua Lang shook his head: "Your wife is entangled by Bai Qiye, you must hate him to the bone, and you have an affair with Madame Bai, if Bai Qiye finds out, how will he forgive you?" For the sake of your own safety and hatred, is it impossible for you to kill Bai Qiye? ”
Chen Agou was speechless for a while, and after a long time, Chen Agou said: "Things are not as you said, I hate Bai Qiye, but I didn't have the heart to kill him, I just wanted to take revenge on him, and then I hooked up with his daughter-in-law, I wanted to use this matter to take revenge on Bai Qiye, but I never thought of killing him." ”
Hearing Chen Agou say these words, Hua Lang and the others were a little shocked, they didn't expect that Chen Agou and Mrs. Bai were cheating on each other, not because the two couldn't bear the loneliness, or because they had feelings, but because Chen Agou wanted to take revenge on Bai Qiye.
It's just that Chen Agou is to take revenge on Bai Qiye, but Mrs. Bai really likes Chen Agou, otherwise how could she rather die than say who is cheating on her?
Is that just the case?
Could this be what Chen Agou said in order to get rid of suspicion?
Hua Lang stared at Chen Agou for a long time, and then asked, "Who is the child in your wife's womb?" ”
"Of course it's mine, that Bai Qiye has never succeeded in pestering my wife!"
"Really?"
"Of course it's true!"
Chen Agou said yes, but Hua Lang smiled faintly: "If you are really so sure, we are not without a way to verify it, you have to think clearly, if we verify that the child is not yours, then you are the murderer of Bai Qiye, it is irrefutable." ”
After Hua Lang said this, Chen Agou said again and again: "That child is really mine, why am I lying?" ”
Seeing that Chen Agou was not afraid of Hua Lang's words at all, this made Hua Lang very helpless, and what he said just now was just to scare Chen Agou, after all, at this time, he couldn't verify who the child in Ah Gou's belly was.
It's just that although it can't be verified, it can't be ruled out that Chen Agou is not the murderer, so Bao Shengren showed Chen Agou up.
After looking at Chen Agou, a message suddenly came from the whole village: the elders of the village asked Sun Qi to be the village head.
Now that Bai Qiye and Bai Laoba are dead, the only one in the village who can serve is Sun Qi, so who will be the village head?
This news undoubtedly forced Sun Cry to the top of the wind, Hua Lang and Bao Zheng have always suspected that Sun Cry killed people for the position of village chief, originally he could be after Bai Qiye died, but there was still a stumbling block in front of Bai Laoba, and now that Bai Laoba is dead, it is even more likely that he will be the village head.
And only Sun Qi's motive can explain why after Bai Qiye died, Bai Laoba also died.
However, when they heard the news in the village, Bao Zheng and Hua Lang were not in a hurry to talk to Sun Ti, because they wanted to see if this Sun Ti was really high, and they wanted to know if Lu Dao would become the village chief when so many people wanted him to be the village head.
After Sun Cry made a statement, they could judge whether Sun Cry was a murderer based on Sun Cry's statement.
They believe that this is a very difficult choice for Sun Ti.
