Chapter 6 - a catcher
Xie Chengfeng took a closer look and saw that Shen Chu was coming back soon. The burly man was furious at the moment, and he raised his knife and slashed. Seeing the icy and icy blade slashing towards his head, Xie Chengfeng jumped off the window sill and hid under the table.
Shen Chukuai was reluctant to chop down a good window, put away the knife, stood outside the window and shouted, “Come out for me!”
Xie Chengfeng thought to himself, am I a fool?
Shen Jiajia asked her father through the window: “Father, it’s not time to leave the shift, what are you doing when you come back, but what’s the matter?”
Shen Chukuai patted his head, “I almost forgot about the business, because I was so angry with this crazy bird. I’ll pluck it and bake it tomorrow.” Tea, sit down.
Shen Jiajia also came out of the bedroom and said as he walked: “It usually plays in the streets and alleys, and inevitably learns a few crazy words. I’ll go back and teach it a lesson… Dad, what happened in the yamen?”
“Hey, something really happened,” Shen Chau quickly put down his teacup, “Sanniang, Daddy wants to ask you for help.”
“Oh? How can I help? Daddy but it’s fine.”
“That’s right. Early this morning, Censor Qian Tai was found hanged at home, and his family reported the case. After an autopsy, he believed that Censor Qian did not hang himself, but was strangled to death before hanging on the beam. , disguised as suicide.”
Shen Jiajia asked, “Why do you judge like this?”
“A hanged person is different from a strangled wound, and the way they die is different. A hanged person usually sticks out their tongue, like this—” Shen Chukuai said, he learned it briefly, rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue, making Shen Jiajia puff out. smile.
Xie Chengfeng got out from under the table long ago and stood silently behind Shen Jiajia with his ears pricked up to listen to the story. He is so boring.
Shen Jiajia asked: “Since it is judged to be homicide, then there is a suspect? Does Yushi Qian have any enemies?”
“Qian Yushi’s duty is to picket all the officials—that is, to pick on the officials, and he usually scolded people from time to time. He has offended too many people. Just the day before the incident, he impeached Zhou Shilang, He scolded Shilang Zhou so bloodily that he threatened to kill him! Who knew that Yushi Qian would be killed the next day, so Shilang Zhou became the biggest suspect and had been invited to the government for questioning already.”
Shen Jiajia listened quietly and asked, “Dad, what does this have to do with me?”
“The crime scene was very clean and no evidence was left. What’s even more bizarre is that the doors and windows of the room were bolted from the inside. This was a murder case in a secret room. I can’t find any clues, thinking about the last time we You are so careful about the burglary at home, maybe you can help this time.”
“Me? Can I? Will other people in the yamen mind…”
Shen Chukuai waved his hand to interrupt her, “Sanniang doesn’t know, because the old catcher is too old and can’t do it anymore, his son wants to work for him, he has to be a catcher first, and the seat of the catcher is vacant. Come out. Shangguan has spoken, this case involves two court officials, whoever solves the case will be promoted…” Shen Zhukuai was talking, and he was a little embarrassed, “Li Si and I are both thinking about it. In this position, now each has a team of people, but I am not fully sure, so I have to come to you to try.”
Xie Chengfeng was a little dumbfounded. Going all out to be a headhunter? Really ambitious.
