Chapter 987 Completing the chain of evidence
Chapter 987 Complete the evidence chain
Su You took out the notebook from his bag, tore off three pages, and then took out the seal box: "Please print the fingerprints of your thumb and index finger on a piece of white paper."
The three of them did as they were told, and then Su You wrote down the words Zongxiong, Dayin, and Tuiguan respectively on the white paper. He took out a magnifying glass from his bag and said with a smile: "Now it's time to look for differences."
In fact, this is Su You's first time doing this, but everyone's fingerprints look the same at first glance. If you study them carefully, you will soon find the differences.
Observation and experiment are also basic skills in science and engineering. Soon, Su Song had confirmed Su You's words.
Although Li Tuiguan was a little superstitious, this was a common problem among people of this era. He was still careful and meticulous in his thoughts and business. Soon, he also discovered the difference.
Su You really spent some effort to distinguish the cups that the three people had taken.
On the contrary, Qian Zao is a standard liberal arts old dog, and his eyesight is not good after reading too much. He was stunned and couldn't see any difference. In the end, Li Guan took an iron needle and explained a few details to him, and Qian Zao suddenly understood.
: "It turns out that apart from appearance and body, there are such subtle differences between people. The magic of creation is really unbelievable."
Su You said: "Now back to the case, according to the file, the check book was taken out directly by Mr. Li from the Bianjing branch. Chen Shiru was still in Huzhou at that time, so his fingerprints should not be on the check.
.ā
Su Song nodded: "If there are his fingerprints, it means that Chen Shiru handled this check before the case, so it is very likely that he knows the case!"
Su You nodded: "That's true, but it's also possible that during the trial of the case, the judge showed the evidence to Chen Shiru, and Chen Shiru took it for confirmation, which would also leave fingerprints."
Li Guan shook his head: "That's impossible. In order to prevent the criminal from destroying the evidence, small items that are easy to swallow and evidence that is easy to damage will not be touched by the suspect. He can only look at it."
"Really?" Su You had never personally tried such a delicate case. It was a matter of recommending officials. At most, he could just sit in, watch the files, and then determine whether the judge's decision was fair or unfair.
These things are all paid attention to by the people under his command. He learned another trick today.
Su Song frowned: "But there is a problem. These exhibits have passed through the hands of many people. Chen Shiru is dead. How to determine which fingerprint is his? Also, it is easy to leave fingerprints on porcelain, but on checks
Iām not sure whether I can stay or not.ā
Su You smiled and said: "I am quite confident in Huangsong Bank's special bill paper. But when it comes to fingerprints..."
Suddenly his eyes lit up: "Yes, this!"
Those are several brushes, some big and some small.
Su You said: "The position of holding the pen when writing is different from the position of holding the pen when searching for evidence. We can just use Chen Shiru's personal pen to test it."
Su Song clasped his hands together: "What a great idea!"
Then he said: "To be on the safe side, try a few pens!"
Li Tuiguan was so happy that he couldn't even look at it: "How dare you continue to bother three bachelors with such a trivial matter? Just leave it to a humble official. Xiao Su, please lend me your gloves."
Su You knew what this kid was up to, and after mastering this skill, he had another detection method.
The Kaifeng Prefecture has left and right departments, each with one official to judge cases in turn on different days.
There is a certain degree of competition between the two, and Li Tuiguan wants to get in first.
He took off his gloves and threw them to him, then took out a small glass bottle: "Without this, your work is still in vain."
Seeing that Official Li was stunned, Su You smiled and said: "I'm just kidding you, since it helps solve the case, I will definitely prepare all the criminal names in the state capital in the future."
Official Li didn't dare to roll his eyes even if he wanted to. He's such a big boss, is it fun to tease a junior official?
Su You was joking, but he was still very serious in guiding the operation.
The results soon came out. Several fingerprints were extracted from the parts where the brushes were held. Based on the retained parts, it can be roughly determined that they belong to the same person. The rest of the fingerprints were either not at the position where the pen was held, or were relatively single.
There is no concentrated appearance.
Therefore, Chen Shiru's own fingerprints have been authenticated to the greatest extent possible.
Everyone then compared the fingerprints on the check with those on the brush holder.
Huangsong Bank's bill paper contains Tianfang glue, and the check is very new, with many fingerprints left on it.
The discovery of two of the fingerprints made everyone excited.
One on the front, one on the back; one thumb and one index finger!
It is exactly the same as the remaining part of the pen barrel!
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Chen Shiru was not killed by mistake!
These two fingerprints are enough to show that he has the greatest suspicion and bribed his servant as the murderer!
Although the case has long been closed and the person has been killed, this belated new evidence still fills in a key link in the Chen Shiru case where the evidence was not convincing enough.
Everyone was inexplicably happy. Qian Zao smiled and handed over to Su You: "Bachelor Su is a scholar of heaven and earth. I have heard a lot of rumors in Kaifeng Mansion, but I always thought that no matter how magical it is, it is not like that."
"It wasn't until I saw it with my own eyes today that I realized that I had misunderstood Academician Xiao Su too much. It turns out that he is really that amazing! Hahaha, I apologize to Mingrun here."
Su You also bowed: "Thank you very much, Mr. Qian, for being so generous. You don't think that my clan brother and I are trying to find fault with each other, nor do you think that we are interfering in the government affairs of Kaifeng Mansion."
Qian Zao waved his hand: "Both of you are my ex-presidents with great reputations. Where do you come from?"
"Now I dare to say that Dali Temple's decision was indeed too hasty and was suspected of being coerced by public opinion; you can be regarded as relieving them and turning the case into a solid case."
"I also have a heartache in my heart."
Su You said: "This way I won't bother Dayin anymore. Anyway, I'm very grateful."
Qian Zao smiled and said, "You are so polite, but you are really outspoken."
Qian Zao was the son of Qian Mingyi, a Hanlin scholar, and the great-great-grandson of Qian Yuanguan, the king of Wuyue. Qian Yuanguan was the seventh son of Qian Liu, the king of Wusu.
The relationship between the Qian family and Su You goes without saying much, so we can just point it out. Everyone knows it.
After coming out of Kaifeng Mansion, Su Song breathed a long sigh of relief and whispered: "Mingrun, thank you."
He knew that Su You's purpose in doing this was not for the sake of legal justice and a complete evidence chain.
Su You's purpose in getting involved in this matter was all for him.
It was just so that Su Song wouldn't have to worry about his conscience because of this incident in the future.
Su You said: "Brother Zong, you're welcome. Now that this matter is over, I'm going back to Weishi. The Eight Gong flat jar and colander are waiting for me."
Su Song smiled and said: "Then say hello to Hachigong for me, and I will go visit him when I have time."
Su You originally planned to tell Su Song that Zhao Xu was going to promote him to compile "Liu Dian of the Tang Dynasty".
Once this task is completed, Su Song will definitely be promoted to one of the actual persons in charge of reforming the official system. After the official system is completed, Zhao Xu will definitely become the prime minister.
Thinking again, the clan brother probably wouldn't care about this. He wouldn't be happy if I told him a few days earlier or a few days later, so he still held back and didn't say anything.
After seeing Su Song off, Su You got on his horse and said, "Zhengsheng, follow me. If we don't stop, we will go straight to the Wei family!"
Ping Zhengsheng was even more excited than Su You: "Okay! I want to take a bath in the hot spring!"
The Wei family was a hundred miles southwest of Kaifeng, and both of them were riding horses that were both powerful and powerful, running wildly along the newly built solid asphalt road beside the Huimin River.
The scene in the Gyeonggi area in winter is actually very depressing, but after walking sixty miles, the scene suddenly changes.
After entering the jurisdiction of Weishi County, the green spaces on the roadside are connected one after another. Although it is early winter, it is a scene full of vitality.
In addition to being the winter village of nobles, this place is also the winter vegetable supply base for Bianjing City.
Because of the hot springs, Huangzhuang planted off-season vegetables on a small scale for the palace decades ago.
At that time, most people could not afford this kind of food. The price of melons and tomatoes in winter was even more expensive than the ones that had just come on the market in summer. A pair cost four guan. Occasionally, the emperor would reward the prime minister or above as valuable items.
Ministers.
Because of this, the imperial censors even wrote a letter saying that planting out of season violated the yin and yang of the time, was unlucky, and would lead to trouble in the country.
After the advent of glass panels, Su You was reminded by Zhang Dun and gave Empress Dowager Cao an idea. So Empress Dowager Cao ordered people to expand several glass vegetable sheds here and ordered a few old eunuchs to take care of things here and raise castrated pigs.
.
If you don't have a perfect person, you won't be able to raise everything. If there are no Yin and Yang people, there will be no Yin and Yang vegetables. Let's see what else you say!
