Chapter 79 Solving the case (1st update)

Rong Xuan nodded and gave her an approving look.

It was not easy to get praise from Mr. Rong, and Nalanjing couldn't help but feel funny.

Then he said seriously: "So, he was standing in that position, and someone appeared behind him, stepped on the mechanism, and crushed him to death. The deceased was aware of it at the time, but he still failed to react in time and was crushed to death."

"However, everyone present at the time knew that there was no one behind him."

Rong Xuan covered the white cloth and walked out of the morgue.

Nalanjing followed and left, locking the door before leaving.

Rong Xuan came to the iron shop door again. This time he broke the seal, took a lamp, and inspected the terrain structure at the door by the light.

His footsteps were at the gate, walking towards the iron frame, one step at a time, two steps at a time, figuring out how to use the fastest speed to hit the mechanism under the iron frame, and leave before everyone could react.

Finally, his eyes rested on a stone pier next to the iron frame.

The stone pier is like a squatting little lion, which cannot hide people at all.

Nalanjing was about to speak when he saw him reaching out his hand and touching the stone pier, which was covered with a brown oily sheen.

Nalanjing couldn't help but explain: "There is a pancake shop next door. Someone must have eaten the sauce pancake and touched the lion."

Rong Xuan turned his gaze sideways, his eyes darkened.

Nalanjing's chest jumped: "You are suspicious..."

It shouldn't be. There is no grievance between the Pancake Shop and Wu's Iron Shop. Both of them are old shops for many years. Besides, we can't use this clue to prove them.

Or maybe it was a customer who had pancakes...

After a few thoughts, Rong Xuan had already closed the door of the iron shop, put the seal back on, and walked back.

The two of them returned to the restaurant.

Early in the morning, the pancake shop opened early for business. Business was very good, and it was not affected at all by the iron shop smashing people to death.

Nalanjing and Zhang quickly waited until noon when the pancake shop closed before going in.

The store manager was a little surprised when he saw them.

Detective Zhang asked if he saw any suspicious people at the door of the store yesterday morning.

The shopkeeper shook his head. They were doing business and people were coming and going. Who would pay attention to them and who would be suspicious?

Nalanjing looked at Rong Xuan, and Rong Xuan also looked at her, and said two words with his lips: child!

Nalanjing understood and asked the shopkeeper if he had noticed any children lingering in front of the gate.

Before the shopkeeper Ning Si could speak, the woman beside her had already said in a fierce voice: "How old is the child? Yesterday, there was a half-grown child who bought my pancakes and ate them squatting at the door for a long time."

Nalanjing asked her to measure her height. She was about the same height as Xiao Wu, about seven years old.

Nalanjing asked her to describe the child's characteristics, and Agent Zhang quickly went to find the yamen's master, who could draw portraits.

The master was out of breath, so Agent Zhang quickly helped with paper and pen.

After painting for a long time, I did draw it, but...

Everyone looked at the child in the portrait. He had the same nose, eyes, and head as the woman said, but his hair was a little different...

The woman said that the child's hair was combed softly and very clean. Although his clothes were a little shabby and there was a dark spot on his face, the hair that the master painted was blowing up one by one.

"..." They feel that their paintings are better than their master's.

When Nalanjing was hesitating whether to do it himself, Rong Xuan had already taken the pen and paper. Half a quarter of an hour later, he picked up the portrait and asked the woman.

The woman looked at Rong Xuan in shock: "Have you seen that child too?"

Agent Zhang all breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the painting looked very similar.

The master's eyes were awkward, he stroked his beard and said in a deep voice: "My little brother is very talented, do you have any idea of ​​becoming my apprentice, Master Li?"

Everyone: "..."

Rong Xuan glanced at him, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he shook his head.

Nalanjing snorted and quickly covered his mouth, laughing so hard that he almost burst into tears.

With a portrait, it's much easier to find someone.

Two hours later, Agent Zhang returned to the Yamen with a dozen children, all of whom looked somewhat like the portrait.

The shopkeeper and his wife went to the Yamen to recognize someone. What was embarrassing was that the person they recognized was different.

The shopkeeper pointed to a child with ragged clothes: "I remember that child's clothes were in ragged clothes and there was a big black spot on his face."

The child he pointed to also had a dark spot on his face, although it wasn't that big.

He felt that he must have been dazzled at that time and felt that the dark spots were very big.

The woman said, "But I remember it most clearly. His hair was very well combed and tied up like this. The dark spots don't look natural to me. They look like they have been wiped with dirt."

Captain Zhang looked at Rong Xuan in a moment of embarrassment.

Rong Xuan walked between the two children, his eyes resting on the child pointed by the woman.

The child was dressed in ordinary clothes, but the clothes were a bit new, and there were no dark spots on the face that the woman mentioned. Like other children, he stared at them in fear.

Rong Xuan looked at Nalanjing and said on his lips: "Disguise."

Nalanjing understood immediately, found some tattered clothes and shoes for him to put on, and drew a black birthmark on his face.

The woman's eyes lit up: "Look, old man, I told you that it was not a natural birthmark. You can tell at a glance that it was painted on. You still don't believe it."

The shopkeeper nodded excitedly: "That's the kid."

He looked at Rong Xuan with admiration, this man had such a bright mind.

After the shopkeeper and his wife left, Detective Zhang looked at Rong Xuan. Now that the child has been found, will he be tortured to extract a confession?

Rong Xuan wrote a line on the paper: Capture his father.

Detective Zhang's eyes widened. Was he convicted so directly?

The child was found playing in the street. The family did not know that he had been taken away by the government. When they heard that the officials outside were looking for the child, they quickly went out to look for him.

Agent Zhang lurked in his house and caught him.

The man had some skills in boxing and kicking, but fortunately they were prepared in advance. They brought all the officials from the government office and surrounded him for two streets, making it impossible for him to escape even after he broke free for a while.

Wu Dong's family had already recognized the person. He was a worker who had worked at the iron shop for three days more than ten days ago. No wonder they couldn't find him.

The county magistrate took people to interrogate him.

Rong Xuan asked for permission from the county elders and was looking through the case files. Within an hour, he had already read through all the case files in Qingshan Town, Boyun County in the past ten years.

Boyun County is very large, and Qingshan Town is one of its towns. Due to its geographical location, Qingshan Town is closer to the capital city, so the county government will be built in Qingshan Town.

The county master came back soon and showed the man's case file to Rong Xuan.

The man's name was Li Kui. Because he had a skill, he heard that Wu's Iron Shop was recruiting blacksmiths. He moved from Fucheng to Qingshan Town half a month ago. He worked as a part-time worker at Wu's Iron Shop for three days and was fired because of frequent mistakes.

.

At first Li Kui was unwilling to admit his crime.

The county officials punished the child. The child's name was Li Chun. He was a very smart child. He couldn't bear the punishment, so he was punished.

The county magistrate said: "Li Chun said that Li Kui asked him to guard the door of Wu's iron shop. When he noticed someone approaching the iron frame, he went in and stepped on the mechanism on the steel. He was a child. He went in and came out squatting. There was a stone pier as a cover.

ears, so no one will notice him."
