After Lord Bao returned to the mansion, his buttocks were not yet hot, and he heard someone beating the drum. As a local boss, he can only dress up in the official mansion and go to the court.
As soon as Xingtangmu knocked, Bao Heizi hugged Guan Wei and said, "Plaintiff." ”
"With the plaintiff~~~"
A woman who is not very coquettish, generally good-looking, ran to the hall crying, fell to her knees on the ground, and shouted: "My lord, make the decision for me?" ”
Bao Heizi said: "What grievances? From the truth? ”
The woman cried, "My lord, my master Xiong De...... Woo~~~" Everyone looked at each other when they heard this, could it be that she was ruined by her master? There were a few officials who had a good mouthful of this mouthful, and their faces were suddenly full of hideousness, so that they could fight unevenly.
Master Bao was not so bored, and said, "What's wrong with your master?" ”
The woman cried, "My master, my master, Xiong De...... Fang Cai sat behind the desk in the study...... Let people assassinate...... There's a sharp knife stuck in his back......"
Yes?! The servants in the hall showed a look of surprise, very yellow and violent. "Bang" Master Bao woke up and knocked, "Quiet?!" The crowd was silent. Then he said: "Wang Dynasty, Mahan, you two follow the bitter master to investigate." ”
Wang Dynasty and Ma Han came out of the ranks, hugged their fists and said: "Yes." Then they came to the sufferer and said, "Woman, let us go." ”
At noon, Wang Chao and Mahan went to Xiong De's house with the female bitter lord to beat him. On the way, Wang Wang asked, "When did this happen?" ”
The bitter woman said, "It was half an hour ago." ”
With a glimmer of hope, Mahan asked, "Do you know who did it?" ”
"It may be ......," the bitterwoman wept and interrupted her answer, "probably one of the twin brothers...... Before he was killed, I saw him run out of the lawn. ”
"One of the twin brothers? Which one? ”
"I can't tell...... They look exactly the same......"
The two of them heard the sound and glanced at each other, this case is a bit tricky. The two bowed their heads and said nothing, and followed the female sufferer to Xiong De's house.
It took about a stick of incense to arrive at the scene of the murder - Xiong De's house. The Female Sufferer led them. They immediately went for an autopsy. Old man Xiong De was sitting behind the desk in the study, and at this moment his body was tilted forward, and his long, dense white hair was spread out on a piece of paper he was writing. A kitchen knife was inserted into his back.
Wang Chao asked, "You just said you saw one of the twins running out of the house. What's going on? ”
"yes, what's going on with one of the twins running out of the house?" Someone repeated outside the window.
Suddenly two young men stood in front of the open window that led to the garden, and one of them was learning his words. The dynasty's gaze immediately turned from the corpse to the two of them. To be honest, he couldn't help but be surprised every time he saw the two brothers, because the two looked too similar. They were always dressed in the same clothes, making it difficult to tell who was who. He is generally tall and has a dark complexion. They all look very energetic. He looked at the two men, and now they both turned their eyes from him to the dead man in the chair almost simultaneously, and at the same time they looked surprised.
"What's going on?" One of them asked.
"Your uncle was murdered." Mahan said as he stared at the two. Both of them are very clever, and they know in their hearts that they will not be overly sad or shocked by this. One of them said in a low voice, "I see." When the steward sees one of us running out of the house, you assume that one of us killed him, right? ”
"I just got here." "More evidence is needed to draw conclusions," Wang said. But I think both of you have to make a statement. At the end of the dynasty's inquiry, Mahan investigated the scene. Then he led the housekeeper and the Xiong family through the front hall into the kitchen, and invited everyone to sit down and talk about the situation.
"Tell me about it first." He said it mildly. The woman spoke very simply, but it was quite difficult. She had thought that Mr. Xiong's twin nephews were not at home. The two of them have always been rarely at home day and night, and there are too many things that interest them in Duanzhou and elsewhere. She spoke sadly about these situations.
She said that after Mr. Xiong De had eaten a simple lunch alone, the matter came to an end. After lunch, the old gentleman returned to the study to write a letter. She was cleaning up the dishes in the dining room. Suddenly I heard a shout. At first she looked out the window, as if she had come from the garden, when she saw a nephew hurrying out. She was relieved, so she knocked on the door of the study. There was no answer from inside, so she opened the door and revealed the murder.
"I think it's time for you two to understand your situation."
The dynasty said to the two young men, "Now there is a Witness. At the crime scene and at the time of the crime, I saw one of you around here, and fled in a hurry. A suspicious behavior of inner emptiness. You'll probably agree with that, too. So, what else do you two have to say now? ”
"I can present evidence of an alibi." One began to say.
"Which one are you?" The dynasty asked without embarrassment.
"I'm Xiongda."
"What evidence do you have?"
"I was at the inn."
"Are you there alone?"
"Of course I'm with Zhang San. He is the second shopkeeper. If you ask her, he will testify for me. As soon as the inn opened at noon, I went, and stayed until a stick of incense before leaving. ”
"You came home with your brother Xiong Er. Where did you find him? ”
"I met him at the smithy. The wagon was repaired there, and we both wanted to ask when it would be fixed. ”
"Okay. Even if you met Xiong Er at the blacksmith shop, why did you two suddenly decide to go home? ”
"We want to talk to my uncle and ask him to buy us another horse or carriage. The two of us share a car, which is too harsh for us. Xiong Da said innocently and tactfully.
"There will be no more wants to buy now. I don't have any money on hand! He said.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Now that your uncle is dead, you two will soon be wide. Of course, you two will be the main beneficiaries in his will. ”
Bear laughed, "You're accusing one of us of killing him in order to get a will, aren't you?" ”
"Xiong De has a big family background." Wang Chao pointed out, his tone still quite mild, "Now you will have enough money, you can buy as many horses as you want, whatever you want." ”
Xiong Da's tone was also quite gentle: "Anyway, someone can testify to me." You said that someone saw that one of us entered and left the scene after the case, so you must be accusing Xiong Er? ”
"Not yet. I also want to hear what Xiong Er himself has to say. The dynasty's gaze turned to the other nephew. The lad sat there. It looks like it's nothing.
"What do you want to hear?" He asked, in exactly the same tone as his brother's, which was incredible.
"If you have alibi evidence as well, please tell me about it." The dynasty asked him, "Where were you when you were murdered, that is, an hour ago?" Blacksmith shop? ”
Xiong Er grinned. "I'm afraid I can't admit it." He said, "Though I wish I could do that, the blacksmith will not help with it." Yes, as Xiong Er said, I met him in the repair shop. We both got there at the same time and only stayed there for a while. I'll admit we got there at noon. ”
"It's only a few breaths away from here to the blacksmith's shop."
"Yes."
"Then I'll ask again. Xiong Er, where are you at midnight? ”
"I'm at the inn." Xiong Er said, "If you want, you can go and ask the shopkeeper." ”
This really confuses the dynasty: "You mean you both are at the inn?" ”
"No," Xiong Er said firmly, "I'm the only one there." ”
"But your brother says he's ...... too."
Xiong Er grinned. It's like a mysterious joke. "I'm not my brother's protector,"
He replied, "So I don't want to speak for him." As for me, it was indeed an inn at the time. ”
Wang Chao sat there in deep thought, looking at the brothers. The two faces looked alike, not to mention how similar they were, and they both showed an innocent look," he said at last, "and you both gave the same witness." Right? ”
"Like that?" Xiong Da replied.
"But one of you is lying." Wang Dynasty reasoned.
"That's not me." Xiong Da said.
"That's not me." Xiong Er said. The two were so bold and presumptuous, and finally made the dynasty unable to hold his breath. The more he thought about it, the more angry he felt.
"I see." He sued them.
"What do you understand?"
Wang Chao has been by Bao Heizi's side for a long time, so he naturally knows some skills to solve the case, so he said:
"It's just reasoning, and it may have to be worked out in detail. But your plot has been revealed. It's all about the two of you looking the same, right? Neither of them said a word, and neither of them looked uneasy. The dynasty then said, "First both of you are in favor of killing your uncle. Of course, it's for the sake of money. But you also knew you were taking a lot of risk when you planned this plot. So like all premeditated murderers. Try to eliminate or reduce this risk as much as possible. You think you're going to get into a lot of trouble, but anyway, you know that it's your brothers who are the first to be suspected, because you two do have that suspicion. You were right. Solving a crime always starts with finding out the motive for the murder. You face this with the knowledge that you will be under suspicion. So you try to kill people and at the same time prove that you were not at the scene of the crime. Am I right? ”
One of them, the dynasty can't figure out which of them is who, Xiong shrugged his shoulders and said, "This is a story you made up yourself, poor master." ”
"Okay, then I'll move on. You decided to do this, and you killed your uncle in the simplest and most direct way possible. Because you're always going to be under suspicion anyway, so you're out of the way. But one of you was seen fleeing in a hurry. You were even prepared for this, so the other stayed in the inn at the time of the murder in order to present an alibi. Now it's time to prove where one of you was. What the hell! I have to admit that if we can't prove which of you two committed the crime, because only one person is the murderer, then we can't convict you at will? Although there is a witness, it is impossible to tell which of the two of you is the murderer? ”
