Chapter 33

Seeing that they were slapped without even asking a few words, the three fairies couldn't help but be surprised. Even if they were substitutes, they still couldn't convince anyone!

"We didn't kill the coachman, so why should we beat him?!"

"Good question!" The county master snorted and said, "If it is found that the murder case is related to you, it will not be a slap in the face. Now I want to punish you for your blasphemy. There is Yizhuang outside the city.

If you don't go there to bury the corpse, you actually desecrate it before the city god. If I don't beat you, who will I beat?"

I'm going~

Three people and one cat are simply dumbfounding.

Just as he was covering his eyes and waiting for his substitute to be beaten, he saw the former head catcher coming out and speaking to the county magistrate: "Sir, they are nothing more than children. I'm afraid this question will make it impossible to answer the question. The murder case is still more important..."

The county magistrate also listened to the advice, collected the sign and said: "Then write it down in the account first. I will ask you again, have you ever given a large amount of money to Zhang Ergou, the waiter of Fulai Inn?"

"There is no big money, just a piece of gold and stone."

"Just answer yes or no!" the county master drank, and then ordered a piece of physical evidence to be presented, which was the piece of gold stone given to the waiter by red mud. He asked again, "This ingot——, this piece of gold is

Did you give it to Ergou?"

"yes."

"Okay! That Zhang Ergou is not related to you and the three of you. He is just a guy you just met in the inn. Why did you give him a large sum of money? You guys, including men and women, only wanted an ordinary room. What about Zhang Ergou?"

Ergou is so generous, but to cover up his shame?"

Ah?(⊙o⊙)

"Is the gold scattered in Taihuai Town to buy fame, or to confuse people? You three are young, and you said that you have been fostered by others since you were young. Where did this large amount of money come from? Is it related to the coffin hiding the corpse?

No connection? One by one, one by one, give me honest answers!"

Apart from the night ghost story and his family's origins, there isn't much that he shouldn't tell others.

Luochen thought for a while and asked his substitute to reply: "The body was found along with the carriage thirty miles outside the western suburbs of the town. We originally wanted to take a ride to save labor, but when we found out that the person in the car was dead, we took the carriage

. also wanted to help him find his family, so he brought him into the town..."

This briefly describes the process of being refused accommodation and transferred to the next home, only omitting the part about the quail fight.

"Hongni" responded: "The gold and stones are all left by our ancestors. They were originally taken care of by Mr. Zhao. Now that we are allowed to go out, we have been given some self-defense. We need a room because we are used to one place, and the other... we have

I have never seen the world, and I don’t know how many good people there are, so I just give it to people who want it..."

The county magistrate originally felt the same as the arrester. He always felt that these three were just children and had no evil and sycophantic spirit, so they would not do anything harmful to nature. However, there were many doubts in the case.

Firstly, the whereabouts of the dead people on the carriage have not yet been ascertained; secondly, the amount of money is really considerable, and even if the wrongdoing is not with the three children, there is no guarantee that there is no other hidden secret; thirdly, it is of course the Ergou Zhang.

The waiter quit his job because he was greedy for money. He disappeared inexplicably on the way home, but the gold was there... There is no solution to the unsolved case, so we have to trace the source. Coupled with a bunch of abnormal phenomena, it is natural that three people and one cat can't avoid right and wrong.

The county magistrate looked deep in thought in the hall, and Luochen realized his lesson on the roof.

Money brings trouble!

After a moment of silence, the county magistrate told his subordinates: "Do you have any conclusions about the murder? Let's go to the western suburbs of Taihuai Town to see if there are any doubts and clues. We must find out the identity and cause of death of the deceased as soon as possible. And that Zhang Ergou, find him quickly."

The person's whereabouts may be investigated, or the person with knowledge may be escorted to court to cooperate with the trial."

"yes!"

The messenger took the order and left, and the county master said again: "The cause of the unknown person's death is unknown, the whereabouts of Zhang Ergou are unknown, and the behavior of you and others is inappropriate. I cannot accept one side of the word. Right and wrong can only be clarified until the whole context is found out.

Suspect. Here comes the suspect. The suspect will be detained and sent to prison for the time being. The evidence will be collected and interrogated again. Withdraw from the court!"

Seeing that "he" was about to go to jail, Hong Ni said in shock: "I was never restrained in the past, and now I have become an immortal, and now I am squatting in a mortal cell? What a great immortal name I have in my lifetime!"

After sighing, he asked Luochen again, "What should we do now? Wait for that old man with unshaven beard to clear our name?"

Mo Ran frowned and said, "I don't want to be beaten." It means that if you don't want to watch the substitute get beaten, it's better to keep your eyes open.

Luochen said: "We don't need mortals to repay our innocence, but I always feel that this matter is weird. From what I met today, I saw that all mortals like gold and stones. How could the waiter lose it? Why?

Were they not taken away? Where did the others go?"

"Well, there is also the matter of the coachman. When the ghost locked his soul, you didn't ask about the cause of death." Xiao Liu'er interrupted abruptly.

"Only you can do it! It's an afterthought." Hongni gave him a slap and comforted Mo Ran, "What Luochen said makes sense, why not just wait a little longer."

Mo Ran could only nod reluctantly with his face raised.

The three men then hid themselves on the roof of the county government office, absorbing Yuehua and practicing while waiting for the case to develop.

I originally thought that the county magistrate had to investigate the identity, examine the cause of death, and find the missing persons, and it would take at least two or three days before retrial. Unexpectedly, at noon the next day, he was sitting in court again to raise the account. In addition, everyone looked grim.

.

The "three sons of the Li family" were brought to court for interrogation. The county magistrate slapped the gavel tree hard and shouted with a cold face: "Where did you three get their gold? Who instigated you to disperse in Taihuai Town?"

Humans? Which households are there, and how many people are there in total? Frankly confess and recruit them quickly!"

ah?

The three people and the cat on the roof looked at each other in confusion.

Didn't everything that needs to be said be said yesterday, why did another behind-the-scenes instigator appear?

So through the words of "Hong Ni", he recounted the ancestral property one by one. He also stated that distributing wealth was just a matter of bartering with money. It was all paid by others, and the heads were never counted.

With a "pop" sound, the county master slapped the gavel tree hard again and said angrily: "I thought you were young and innocent, and your behavior in Taihuai Town was just a little confused and prodigal. I didn't expect you to be a scourge to the village!"

Hit me! Hit them until they are real!" After saying that, he threw the stick on the ground.

When Mo Ran saw that someone had taken out the clamping sticks and put the clamps on the hands and feet of the three stand-ins, Mo Ran couldn't help but turned pale and exclaimed: "Are they really going to torture?!"

Hong Ni also had a look of astonishment on his face, then he stroked his chest and rejoiced: "It's a blessing to use a blind trick, otherwise I might not be able to see next year's peach blossoms."

"Even if you don't use blinders, those mortals can't hurt you!" Luochen mocked him, but he was also full of doubts, "I see these people have different attitudes yesterday, what went wrong between them?"

While talking, the three stand-ins in the hall were already screaming from the torture. Xiao Liuer held her paws in her hands and asked with concern: "Is this torture? How does this compare to the ones on the Divine Punishment Platform and the Zhuxian Platform?"

He had to think carefully about whether he wanted to cultivate people or become immortals.

"This is a way to deal with mortal beings. The divine punishment platform is full of things that can remove bones and extract souls!" Hongni threatened him and asked Luochen, "Why is this great immortal a little confused? It's only been a night."

,'we' are locked up in prison again, how come it seems like we have made a big fool of ourselves again?"

Luochen shook his head and said, "I already felt that something was wrong. Now that it's like this, why don't we go check it out ourselves?"

"I think it will work. Who knows what stories these mortals will come up with if we wait any longer." Hongni immediately agreed, turned around and pulled Mo Ran, who couldn't stand it, off the roof.
