The man with a round waist and thick legs nodded, "Xiaomin is." A few tolerances, please sit inside. ”

Song Ruilong didn't give him any politeness, they walked over the freshly paved loess and went directly into the upper room.

Candles were lit in the upper room, and the outer and inner doors of the house were painted with a layer of vermilion paint, and the smell of paint was still very strong.

Su Xianrong coughed a few times after smelling that smell.

After Song Ruilong saw Fan Haiyang sit down, he looked at Fan Haiyang and said, "Fan Haiyang, don't be nervous, Bencha just wants to ask you some simple questions, you just answer truthfully." ”

Fan Haiyang seemed to be very nervous, his palms were drenched in cold sweat, and said, "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, just ask if someone has anything to say." ”

Song Ruilong said: "Fan Haiyang, this mission asked you where you were on the fourth watch today?" ”

Fan Haiyang's brows furrowed, and he thought for a while: "Send people, Xiaomin is on the way to the county seat." Because the butcher's shop of the small people is in the county seat, the small people have to kill the pigs on the third watch, divide the meat, load the meat on the fourth watch, and after everything is ready, they will push the wheelbarrow to the county seat. ”

Su Xianrong's eyes stared at Fan Haiyang and said, "Who can testify to what you said?" ”

Fan Haiyang's eyes flickered twice and said, "Chen Daniu of Chenjiazhuang can testify." Because we were pushing the cart together to the county seat. ”

Song Ruilong was suspicious: "Where is Chen Daniu's house?" ”

Fan Haiyang said very happily: "His home is in Room 3, Group 3, Chenjiazhuang. ”

Song Ruilong looked at Tie Chong and Shen Jing and said, "The two of you immediately go to Chenjiazhuang to bring Chen Daniu over." ”

Tie Chong and Shen Jing received the task and went to Chenjiazhuang.

Song Ruilong's tone became very softened again, and said, "Fan Haiyang, I ask you again, when you left Fanjiazhuang, did you see a monk rushing over from Chenjiazhuang?" ”

Fan Haiyang shook his head like a rattle and said, "I didn't see any monks." ”

Because Song Ruilong didn't find any strong evidence, it was not a way for him to ask like this, so he and Su Xianrong looked around at Fan Haiyang's house with candles.

Before Fan Haiyang could ask Song Ruilong why the door of his house was repainted with vermilion paint, he gave the answer, "Yesterday, on the second watch, Xiaomin stabbed a pig in the neck in his yard, and it stands to reason that the pig has no chance of coming back to life, but the pig is very weird, its heart is actually on the left side." Therefore, when Xiaomin untied the rope that tied the pig, the pig ran around the yard like a madman because of the pain, and finally ran to the upper room, waking up his wife, who was sleeping soundly in the bedroom, and the pig's body was full of blood, so it stained the quilt and bed sheets in the bedroom. Although Xiao Min stabbed the pig to death in the end, the yard of Xiao Min's house was also disgraced by the pig. So, Xiaomin pulled a few carts of loess to raise the yard today, and painted the gate of the house with vermilion paint. ”

Fan Haiyang's explanation was reasonable, which completely dispelled Song Ruilong's original idea of starting with the blood stains on the door and clothes.

Those blood stains If in the era when Song Ruilong lived, he could easily use the most advanced technology to find out whether the blood was human blood or pig blood, but now he can't.

Song Ruilong waited until Tie Chong and them came back, and he asked Tie Chong to take Chen Daniu to a side room. Su Xianrong accompanied Fan Haiyang and Fan Haiyang's wife Xu Hongli in the upper room to chat about some family life.

Candles were lit on the table.

After Song Ruilong walked into the side room, Chen Daniu said to Rong Ruilong very politely: "Send people, I don't know what is the matter with sending people to call Xiaomin?" ”

Song Ruilong sat on a chair with a smile and said, "You are Chen Daniu." Don't be nervous, I want to ask you, where are you on the fourth watch today? ”

Chen Daniu thought for a while and said, "Oh, Xiaomin was pushing pork into the city with Fan Haiyang on the fourth watch. Our two butcher shops in the county seat are not far away, so we go into the city together every day. ”

Song Ruilong felt that there was no problem with Chen Daniu's words, so he asked, "Then did you two see a monk on the road yesterday?" ”

Chen Daniu shook his head and said, "What monk?" I haven't seen it. ”

Tie Chong thought that this case was not easy to try, maybe this Chen Daniu and Fan Hai** were not murderers.

Song Ruilong felt that there was something wrong with this Fan Haiyang, and he thought that the breakthrough was in Chen Daniu's body, so he continued: "But Fan Haiyang didn't say that. ”

Chen Daniu's face immediately changed, and he said, "Then what did Fan Haiyang say?" ”

Song Ruilong said slowly: "Then Fan Haiyang said that you not only saw the monk, but also killed the monk. He also said that you cut the monk's throat with a knife, and you should be sentenced to death, which is also your business. He just slashed the knife at the monk's back. ”

Chen Daniu was horrified: "He is talking nonsense. Those two knives were cut by Fan Haiyang. ”

Song Ruilong was pleasantly surprised: "You can't talk nonsense. If you can't produce any evidence, the county will convict you of false accusations. You have to think about it. ”

When Chen Daniu heard that Song Ruilong claimed to be from this county, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down for Song Ruilong and said, "Ah! Xiaomin has no eyes, and he didn't even recognize it as the county magistrate, it's really damned. ”

Song Ruilong said: "Okay, you can tell me now, how did Fan Haiyang kill that monk?" And why did he kill that monk? ”

Chen Daniu was relieved and said, "My lord, here's the thing. That monk was a monk of Mengzhen Temple. The monk did not abide by the rules and committed crimes in Chenjiazhuang and Fanjiazhuang many times, harming many women. None of the women who were injured dared to go to the county office to report the case. They were afraid that they would not be able to live on Zhuangzi in the future, so they swallowed their anger and lived like this. But their silence made the Qingxiu monk even more arrogant. Xiaomin had seen the Qingxiu monk come out of Brother Fan's house three days ago, and at that time, Brother Fan was selling pork in the county seat. Xiao Min guessed that there must be something wrong with this Qing Xiu monk and Brother Fan's wife. At that time, Xiaomin told Brother Fan about it. But Brother Fan said that he didn't believe that his wife would do such a thing. also scolded Xiaomin, saying that Xiaomin was provoking the relationship between him and his wife. Xiaomin's grievances are full of stomachs, but there is no place to vent. On the first day of the watch today, Xiaomin saw that the Qingxiu monk walked out of Chen Changmao's house, and he was still wearing a red dress at that time. Xiao Min thought at the time that the monk must have ruined Chen Changmao's daughter. I gritted my teeth with hatred in my heart. ”
