Chapter 4 Diao Nan dismissed
"Bold! You dare to destroy the evidence!" Diao Nan was furious on the surface, but was ecstatic in his heart. He said to the county magistrate, "Sir, please punish this person for obstructing official duties!"
He originally thought Li Yi really had some evidence to prove that he had perjury, but this guy... actually ruined the perjury!
Now the yellow mud fell into his crotch, either shit or shit! In this way, his perjury will become real evidence because of "no evidence of death"!
Chu Ping was also anxious. Although everyone could see that the brick was a forged item, Li Yi was arrogant to destroy it in front of the county magistrate. He hurriedly said: "Sir, Li Yi just failed for a moment, I hope he would understand."
The county magistrate raised his hand to stop the two of them from arguing. He stared straight at the bricks that were broken into several pieces on the ground, frowned and pondered, and said no.
Diao Nan and Chu Ping were interested in saying something, but when they saw the county magistrate's appearance, they were reluctant to say more.
After pondering for a while, the county magistrate suddenly closed his palms and suddenly realized: "So that's it, so that's it!"
He stroked his short beard and looked at Li Yi with admiration: "It's indeed a strange person!"
Li Yi smiled slightly and bowed, "It's the adult who looks like a torch."
The county magistrate laughed loudly and looked around and saw that the detectives were all inexplicably expressed, and he felt the cheerful meaning of "The whole world is drunk and I am awake alone".
Seeing that the situation seemed to be improving, Chu Ping asked just right: "Sir, please be humble and dull. I wonder what you have seen?"
The county magistrate laughed when he heard this: "Since Brother Li saw it first, let him explain."
Seeing everyone's eyes gathered, Li Yi pointed to the debris of the brick and said, "Please look, this brick is hard and crisp, but it falls to the ground and breaks down, and so many debris fall. If you use this brick to hit people, you will also use the force to kill people. How could this brick be as damaged as it was at the beginning?"
Diao Nan was in a panic and sweated in a cold sweat. He said stiffly: "How did you know that this brick was not brittle because it hits people inside, so it broke after you fall?"
"If you have to make a point, then you are right." Li Yi pointed to the corpse on the table and said, "But, if this brick is hit, it will fall out of debris, but there is no residue of debris left on the deceased's hair. OK, I know that the devil's headmaster will still argue, and I'm right. I just need you to explain this thing."
After saying that, Li Yi took out a handkerchief, which contained a small blue fragment the size of a fingernail.
Li Yi presented the handkerchief to the county magistrate and said, "This fragment was discovered by me from the gap between the dead. The material should be the fragment of a certain porcelain bottle. If there is no accident, the broken porcelain bottle is the real weapon.
So, I found a bloody brick in the Liuhefang. I wonder what explanation you would explain to the brick that shouldn’t be bloody?”
Everyone was shocked. If this was the case, then Diao Nan's identification would be a joke!
If the weapon is a porcelain bottle, how could this brick be stained with blood? Isn’t it a big deal?
Diao Nan's back became cold. Only then did he know why Li Yi asked everyone who found the brick before, why did he show that ridicule. It turned out that he had already dug a pit for himself!
Seeing that Diao Nan had no way to defend herself, the county magistrate could not think of the truth? He looked at Diao Constable and shouted coldly: "Diao Nan! You dare to weave crimes and deceive me!"
Diao Nan's face turned red, but he saw that the county magistrate's face turned pale, and he obviously would not trust him anymore.
He knew that the situation was hopeless, so he knelt down and begged for mercy: "Sir, this brick is for the lowly person. Humiliation is only eager to solve the case, so he was deceived by him. He has no intention of deceiving the high person! Humiliation is loyal, I hope he can observe clearly!"
Seeing Diao Nan say this, Ma Er was also panicked. He hurriedly kowtowed like pounding garlic, and his forehead made a "biangbiang" sound, both skillful and pious.
He said anxiously: "You are wronged! It was Diao Captain who gave the villain twenty cents to falsely accuse Liu He so that he could solve the case and be promoted to the head of the prison!"
"Nonsense!" Diao Nan was furious and stepped forward to grab Ma Er's collar and slapped him twice. Tempered Xingzi spat Ma Er with a look, "It's clear that you want to blackmail Liu He. As long as the Liu He family gives you money, you will change your confession and release Liu He! Don't hide this thought from me!"
Ma Er was so dizzy that he was beaten. He didn't know how to tell, but he just kept calling him "unfairy".
The county magistrate was impatient by the quarrel, and he said furiously: "Stop it all!"
Then, he turned to Li Yi and said with a smile: "Brother Li, say it."
Li Yi's eyes swept from Diao Nan to Ma Er. He thought about it and asked the county magistrate for a moment: "Sir, it is a foregone conclusion that the constable is a trick to forge evidence, and punishment is indispensable. But if you want to break this case, you must also do your best to do your best..."
After hearing Li Yi's words, the county magistrate clapped his hands and smiled. He shouted: "Diaon, as a constable, forged evidence and falsely accused good people. He is simply a violation of the law and his crime is unforgivable! People come here, dismiss his public office, take down his misfortune, and beat him up to thirty pillars!"
"Yes!" The left and right constables immediately obeyed the order and dragged Diao Nan, who could not help but shout "unfairly" and started to beat him up. Soon Diao Nan's cry of pain came.
Li Yi shook his eyebrows. He thought that it was indeed out of public opinion that he had punished Diao Nan, but he did not expect that the county magistrate would directly take away his misfortune. Is this punishment a little bigger?
But then I thought again, Diao Nan has been a servant in the past few years and has no idea how many good people have been wronged, so the punishment seems to be too light.
Chu Ping was so happy that he felt very happy. At present, the position of the captain is still lacking, and Diao Nan is his biggest competitor. Now Diao Nan has left, so why can he not be able to take the position of the captain?
The county magistrate sternly intimidated again: "As for Ma Er, hum! You made accomplice for the tiger by Diao Nan, and you testified virtually and followed the law is also a serious crime! Furthermore, you deliberately wronged the good man, is it you who killed the deceased?"
Ma Er was in horror and died of horror. This dog official actually gave him the charge of murder. What's wrong?
He knelt down and kowtowed: "Sir, you are wronged! The villain was just coerced by Diao Nan to falsely accuse a good man. How dare you kill someone? I hope you can take it clearly, and you can take it seriously!"
Li Yi looked at each other with the county magistrate, stepped forward and blushed, "Hmph, since you say you are innocent, I will trust you. You should take the matter from the truth now. If there is no mistake, I can plead with the county magistrate for you."
The county magistrate nodded: "If you tell me the truth, you will naturally be relieved. If you still have the intention to hide something, hum!"
Ma Er kowtowed and thanked him repeatedly. He was afraid of Li Yi now. Who could know that such a young man had broken Diao Nan's trick in a few seconds?
It's simply terrible!
Ma Er knew that Li Yi would definitely see through the nonsense, so he had to tell the things he had witnessed one by one like a bamboo tube pouring beans.
This time, Li Yi finally understood the whole story of the case.
It turned out that at the third update last night, that is, midnight (11:00 to 1:00 at night), Ma Er went home drunk after a whole day of gambling.
Unexpectedly, when he passed by a mud and was about to get home, he suddenly tripped by something. When he got up, he found that it was a male corpse!
Ma Er was shocked, but he was not afraid. After he tried the corpse, he was obviously not alive, so he became obsessed with plundering the property on the corpse and sneaked back home.
After returning home, he remembered the male corpse. He couldn't sleep at night and remembered that he had rewarded the murder case to the yamen. He became even more excited.
So, at the moment of Mao, he got up early and found the male corpse coming to report the case to the yamen.
As for why Ma Er changed his confession later, it was because of a sentence the county magistrate said to Diao Nan and Chu Ping: Whoever solves the case first will be the head of the arrester.
So, there was the scene where Chu Ping came to find Li Yi earlier.
Diao Nan is not like Chu Ping. He felt that this case looked like a wealth robbery case. It is difficult to catch the murderer in the case of improvisation of the money robbery case, because the murderer had most of the murderer had no direct contact with the deceased.
He still had self-knowledge and felt that he could not catch the murderer at all. If he continued to stalemate, he might be taken advantage of by Chu Ping.
So, he thought of a "wonderful method" - frame the blame.
As for the candidate, he naturally lived in Xicheng and was cowardly. So he threatened Ma Er and tempted him, forcing him to change his confession.
A green skin like Ma Er is most afraid of the constable on weekdays. In addition, Diao Nan's rewards, how can there be no reason to refuse?
This is the scene that Li Yi and Chu Ping saw after coming to the yamen.
After Ma Er said that, he took out an emerald green jade bracelet from his arms and presented it: "My lord, the villain is really coerced. He originally wanted to get a reward, but he was absolutely ill-intentioned! Apart from this bracelet and the two taels of silver placed at home and touched by the deceased, the villain has no longer concealed it."
This jade bracelet was something Ma Er searched for from the deceased. He originally wanted to slander, but if Li Yi had such a magical calculation, if he calculated his thoughts, he would be punished with multiple crimes.
Li Yi took the jade bracelet calmly, feeling amused and crying. He was not a god. If Ma Er had not talked about the jade bracelet, no one could have thought of it.
Now it's fine...
Li Yi looked at the jade bracelet and handed it to the county magistrate and said, "Sir, since the deceased has this thing on his body and Ma Er touched two taels of silver on the deceased, then this case is likely not a simple case of robbery."
The county magistrate nodded repeatedly, then frowned and said, "But if this is the case, who killed the dead? Isn't it really the one from Ma Erwei?"
Ma Er was startled and kowtowed again: "It's unfair, unfair! It really has nothing to do with the villain!"
Li Yi looked at Ma Er and said, "Where was your son before? Can someone testify?"
Ma Er said: "The little man had gambling and drinking at the Golden Dart Gambling House before, and everyone in the Golden Dart Gambling House can testify."
Li Yi felt that Ma Er was indeed not like the murderer, but he still said rigorously: "Sir, can there be coroners in the yamen? If a coroner calculates that the time of death of the deceased is before the hour of the hour, and then collect evidence from the people in the Golden Dart Gambling Gambling House for Ma Er's absenteeism, it will naturally prove the authenticity of what he said."
As a criminal policeman in his previous life, Li Yi was proficient in criminal investigation reasoning. Although he had some knowledge of autopsy, he was not proficient in autopsy. Autopsy was a forensic doctor's job, so he would not have robbed his colleagues of his work.
"Coron Man?" The county magistrate was stunned for a moment. He looked at Chu Ping who was happy on the side, "Is the coroner Man in our yamen always missing?"
Chu Ping said: "Uncle Gan has been dead for a while, and no one has made up for it yet."
The profession of coroner was hereditary in ancient times, and the father was often passed down to sons and grandsons. Therefore, if the previous coroner had no descendants, it would be difficult for someone to replace him.
"Does Gan Corpse have no son? Let him take over." said the county magistrate.
Chu Ping said: "Uncle Gan has only one daughter."
The county magistrate sighed: "If this is the case, who can still perform a body? If the body is delayed for a while, it will probably be even more difficult to tell the time of death."
Chu Ping hesitated and said, "That... sir, Uncle Gan's daughter is also proficient in coroner art. Why would you please invite her to come and have a look?"
"Daughter?" The county magistrate was stunned. He knew that Gan Luzhu's daughter was a little capable, just asking a woman to come to the yamen to do things...
"Forget it! It's important to deal with this case now. You can invite her later and take advantage of the situation."
Chu Ping nodded and responded.
The county magistrate looked at Liu He and Ma Er again and said loudly: "Liu He was slandered and has been found to be acquitted. Although Ma Er made great contributions to the murder case, he colluded with Diao Nan to frame the crime and slander the virtuous and good. It is not possible to determine whether he is the murderer for the time being. He was unable to defeat the merits and dragged on the fifty boards again, and then put him in jail, waiting for investigation!"
"Yes!" the yamen runners responded in unison.
Ma Er was shocked, but he had nothing to say. He was dragged down and beaten to pieces and screamed in pain.
As for Liuhe, he kept kowtowing and thanking like a kowtow bug.
The county magistrate looked at Li Yi deeply, then waved his hand to Chu Ping and said, "It's all gone! That, Chu Ping, come in with me first, I have something to say to you."
Chu Ping was happy and Diao Nan was dismissed from his post, so he was the only one who was able to take charge of the captain.
What the county magistrate wants to say is to hand over the position of the captain to himself?
So cool! So cool!
Chapter completed!
