"Snapped!"

County magistrate Zhu slapped the gavel angrily again, and shouted loudly: "You said you saw a black shadow killing someone and then climbed over the wall and left. Why did the police search the flower garden under the wall today? There were no footprints, and no traces of flowers and plants being trampled on."

Zhang Yangshi was taken aback for a moment, and her beautiful almond eyes rolled around, "This, this..."

Zhang Xian immediately said: "My lord, how did my mother know about how the thief sneaked into the house? The county government officers can't find out soon, and my lord can't impose the crime on my mother and my son."

What a god, mother and son, please don't insult these two words, Xu Qi'an can't stand it anymore.

County magistrate Zhu was furious: "You have a good tongue, come here, and punish me."

The interrogation process is generally like this these days. Forced interrogation and punishment are the only way to do this in the absence of evidence.

Therefore, torture often occurs.

But there is no way, evidence collection is very difficult, lack of equipment and professional technology. So criminal law has become an indispensable procedure.

There are pros and cons.

Zhang Xian said loudly: "Your Excellency, this is trying to beat him into a trick? Your uncle is in the Ministry of Rites, so why don't you impeach him?"

The so-called family uncle is actually a distant relative who left Wufu. However, although the blood is far away, the relationship is very close, because the Zhang family often sends benefits to that distant relative.

Immediately hitting the nail on the head, County Magistrate Zhu frowned. He knew that the Zhang family had such a little background.

"You dare to threaten me, come here, and you will be punished twenty times."

Four yamen servants stepped forward, two of them crossed their necks with sticks, and the other two took off Zhang Xian's pants.

Zhang Xian hissed and screamed.

County Magistrate Zhu's face was sullen, twenty boards were not enough for a person to confess to murder, fifty boards were still possible. But it is also possible to kill people.

Moreover, even if Zhang Xian confessed and the case was handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Zhang Xian might still overturn the case. Don't forget, he has a relative in the case.

At that time, he may label himself as a trick of torture.

Taking advantage of the gap between Zhang Xian being pressed on the ground to hit the board, Xu Qi'an waved to He Ding who was beside the county magistrate Zhu.

After hesitating for a moment, Ding stepped back silently, then trotted to meet him.

"Help me tell the master to temporarily suspend the hall. I have an idea." Xu Qi'an whispered.

"What ideas do you have, don't talk nonsense, it's hurting me." He Ding looked disbelieving.

"There is simply no result in the trial. The master is riding a tiger, he will agree, and buy you a drink later." Xu Qi'an said.

"Fine"

He followed Ding to the front of County Magistrate Zhu and said a few words in his ear, and Magistrate Zhu immediately turned his head to look in Xu Qi'an's direction.

He pondered for a while, looked away, and slapped the gavel: "Put the two in prison first, and suspend the hall."

inner hall.

County magistrate Zhu took a sip of the hot tea offered by his maid.

Seeing this, Xu Qi'an, who has been in the system for several years and has little knowledge of officialdom rules, immediately took a sip of tea.

"Xu Ningyan, what's your idea?"

Xu Qi'an was surprised by the attitude of the county magistrate Zhu, who was surprisingly gentle and did not put on official authority.

In my impression, County Magistrate Zhu would not be so polite to the subordinate officials in the county government. Is it possible that after time travel, the face looks good?

"I can give it a try."

"No penalty?"

"nature."

County Magistrate Zhu became even more curious, put down his teacup and looked over: "Tell me about it."

You don't understand game theory, so why not?

In the quiet forbidden room, Yang Zhenzhen was brought here, her moist eyes rolled, fidgeting restlessly.

She thought that the subordinate officials wanted to embarrass her, and whoever wanted to bring her here would leave, but this did not dispel her anxiety.

"squeak"

The wooden door was pushed open, and a young man in a police uniform came in. He was tall and straight, with a rigid face and handsome features.

"Don't be nervous, just chat casually." The young man even made tea with a smile on his face: "You can call me Xu sir."

Xu snake?

Yang Zhenzhen, who had never received such high-quality treatment, kept silent and stared at him vigilantly.

Xu Qi'an was also looking at this beautiful woman, she was indeed a woman favored by rich people, she was born beautiful, and her beauty was even worse than that of her aunt at home.

The age is also very good, a thirty-year-old woman was the most plump and juicy in his previous life.

"Look at you wearing gold and silver, Zhang Yourui treats you very well." Xu Qi'an opened the topic.

Yang Zhenzhen was noncommittal.

"Actually, I think, at your age, it's probably Zhang Yourui's fault that you haven't been able to conceive a cub for so many years." Xu Qi'an said.

Yang Zhenzhen originally thought it would be a torture, but she didn't expect the young man's attitude and tone to be surprisingly gentle.

It is different from the official image in the impression.

Moreover, when it comes to not being able to conceive, most of the blame is placed on women, Xu Qi'an's words are very pleasant. She slowly let go of her guard, and whispered:

"It's all the women's fault. It's the women's stomach that doesn't live up to expectations. It took so many years to conceive a child, and the master was killed at this time."

As he spoke, his eye circles turned red again.

"Death cannot be brought back to life," Xu Qi'an comforted, and then asked: "Does Zhang Yourui usually go to brothels?"

"I go there often." She said: "From ancient times to the present, how can the elders and officials not go to brothels?"

Let me go, you are more than fifty years old, often go to brothels, and the treasury is empty. I can almost confirm that the child in your stomach is the girl who loves to go to nightclubs next door, and the pregnancy will not be bad. The same is true for the young woman who keeps her empty boudoir alone.

"Suddenly I understand you very well." Xu Qi'an clicked his tongue twice: "Zhang Yourui is over fifty years old, wandering around the brothel and neglecting you, it is reasonable for Hong Xing to go out."

"But killing people is wrong."

Yang Zhenzhen's face changed slightly: "The women don't know what the poor man is talking about."

Xu Qi'an smiled, "I've read the file, and that piece of offering is seven years younger than you."

Yang Zhenzhen said with a straight face, "What does the poor man mean by that?"

Xu Qi'an sneered, "You're an eagle eating chickens."

"Women don't understand." Yang Zhenzhen really didn't understand this time.

"Then tell me something you understand." Xu Qi'an said in a deep voice, "Mr. Zhang Yang, you are alone in your empty boudoir, and you can't bear to be lonely. So you seduced your stepson and did something shameless and immoral."

"On the night when the incident happened, you took advantage of Zhang Yourui's going to the countryside to collect rent, so you had an affair with your stepson. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yourui came back early and broke the adultery between you two. The father and son fought, and you smashed Zhang Yourui to death from behind with a vase."

"In order to cover up the crime, you dragged Zhang Yourui's body to the courtyard, pretended to be thieves, stole and killed people. Zhang Xian deliberately left footprints on the wall to prove your statement."

Yang Zhenzhen's face was pale, and she stared at Xu Qi'an in disbelief.

"I didn't, I was wronged." Yang Zhenzhen said loudly, clenched her hands into fists, and her palms were sweaty.

She was flustered by Xu Qi'an, who had worked hard in the field of interrogation, restrained his gentleness, his face was expressionless, showing a sense of indifference:

"Don't you wonder why I know so clearly? Because Zhang Xian has already confessed."

This is impossible... Such emotion flashed in Yang Zhenzhen's eyes, her face turned pale again, she tried to calm down, but still refused to admit it: "The woman was wronged."

"Do you think it's impossible for your adulterer to plead guilty?" Xu Qi'an remained expressionless.

Obviously there was no threat of harsh words, but it made the beautiful woman feel even more nervous.

"Because you think your handling is flawless, but it's actually full of flaws."

"Zhang Xian only left footprints on the wall, but no footprints when he entered the house. If the thief has good agility, his potential will be stimulated when he escapes, and he will not leave any footprints at all. This is one of them. "

"Secondly, Zhang Yourui died from the blow of a blunt weapon, not a sharp weapon. According to the law of Dafeng, anyone who enters the house at night without a reason will be given a staff of 80. It doesn't matter if the master kills immediately." Xu Qi'an knocked on the table:

"May I ask, who would burglarize a house without a weapon? But Zhang Yourui died of a blunt weapon."

Yang Zhenzhen looks dull.

"I haven't finished yet." Xu Qi'an sneered. After defeating Yang Zhenzhen's psychological defense, the next step is the ultimate move.
