Zhao Erlang faced her face to face and threatened with confidence: "If you can't find the body, I will cut your body into thousands of pieces, and then drag the body out to feed the dogs."
A word of intimidation scared Hu Maoxi out of his wits. He quickly approached Chu Nanzhi worriedly and whispered:
"Ms. Chu, please don't act recklessly. Although there is something fishy in this yard, it doesn't look like a place where corpses can be hidden."
As he spoke, he looked around again to confirm that there was indeed no clue to be found.
Zhao Erlang saw the fear on the county magistrate's face, and asked aggressively:
"Tell me, where is the body hidden? You have been here in this courtyard for most of the day, and you look so confident. Can you find the body of my brother Yan?"
"certainly."
Chu Nanzhi looked around at everyone, slowly walking around the courtyard with deep eyes, and finally fixed her gaze firmly in the direction of the suspicious dry well just now:
"Zhao Xiaolangjun's body is in that dry well."
Everyone looked around and sighed.
Hu Maoxi wanted to go over and find out what was going on, but he carefully looked around the dry well and saw that there was a thick layer of moss growing everywhere on the manhole cover.
Looking at the feet below, there are overgrown weeds, lush and lush, and there are no traces of someone having been there.
Even if the body is carried over, there should be the slightest trace of destruction around it.
If you can really find the young man here, that's all. If you can't find him, then it's just a big joke. How can I explain it to the Zhao family again?
The Zhao family is not an ordinary family.
At the critical moment, he fell into hesitation, completely unsure, and did not dare to make the final cut.
Zhao Erlang walked to the weeds, looked into the distance, pointed at his feet, and said angrily:
"Not to mention that the dry well has been abandoned for many years and no one has touched it. Mr. Chu, take a good look at the weeds around here. There are no traces of trampling. How can you go there and throw the corpse? Can you fly there?"
The air gradually became stagnant, and everyone's doubtful eyes were completely dispelled by Zhao Erlang's words.
Zhao Erlang struck while the iron was hot and continued to frighten Chu Nanzhi: "You evil woman insists on fabricating facts out of thin air. I can make you give up and let people dig a well. But if Yandi's body is not found here, I will
Fulfill what you just said."
Hearing this, Magistrate Hu was so frightened that he lost his wits.
He didn't want to be cut into pieces, so he immediately stopped Zhao Erlang: "It's just an unfounded random suspicion, it can't be taken seriously."
Chu Nanzhi didn't know where Zhao Erlang could be so majestic. His beautiful eyes flickered slightly, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Indeed, the murderer concealed everything very well."
Then, she casually turned her eyes to the pitiful beautiful woman, her expression so calm that she spoke with precision:
“It’s precisely because you cover it up so well that flaws are easily revealed.”
Everyone was confused when they heard this.
Seeing the truth right in front of his eyes, Magistrate Hu retreated, which made Chu Nanzhi a little disappointed.
But things have come to this juncture, and everyone must be persuaded to dig a well no matter what.
She calmly pointed to the weeds in the distance and said, "Look, everyone, how is the grass over there different from this one?"
Everyone looked around and saw that everything was full of life. They didn't find anything unusual, and they turned their eyes back helplessly.
Chu Nanzhi could only elaborate: "There was a heavy rain a few days ago. After the violent storm, even if the weeds in this courtyard are tough and soft yet strong, they cannot withstand the baptism of wind and rain, and they are still damaged.
, the grass in other places is more or less skewed, and some are even mixed together."
As she said this, she walked to a bush not far away, squatted down, and pointed deliberately: "And many of these slanted grasses are still stained with mud, so this is where the grass should be after the rain."
scene.”
After that, she walked back to the grass in front of the dry well, bent down, and continued to explain patiently:
"And here, please take a closer look. It's neat and tidy, not a little bit skewed, and there's not even a bit of soil on each grass. It's clear that someone deliberately erased the traces, straightened the trampled green grass, and wiped it at the same time.
Once the dirt on the grass is cleaned, this is a perfect illusion."
Everyone gathered around to check it carefully and compare it repeatedly. As she said, there was nothing wrong with it.
Chu Nanzhi pursed her lips and stared deeply at Mr. Yu:
"This place is located at the corner of the house, but it is the biggest wind outlet in the yard. There are still weeds blown and mixed together in other places, but this place should be more dirty. The murderer tried hard to erase the leftovers.
trampled marks, but ignored this crucial point."
While everyone was talking secretly, she stepped on the grass again and personally demonstrated how these tough weeds regained their shape after being trampled down.
When everyone saw this, they were willing to suspect again that there might really be a corpse hidden in the dry well.
Chu Nanzhi borrowed a sharp long knife from the nursery and chopped off the dense weeds leading to the well one by one.
After a while, sunken footprints gradually appeared on the bare ground.
Zhao Taigong was in a panic. After taking a few deep breaths, he personally took the knife and came over with Chu Nanzhi to look for the direction of the found footprints and continue to chop the weeds.
After a cup of tea, a line of crooked footprints led straight to the well and appeared in front of everyone.
Hu Maoxi quickly ordered the nursing staff to find ropes and open the manhole covers.
Yu's cries gradually became weaker, but her body couldn't help but tremble.
Zhao Erlang's entire face suddenly became as terrifyingly gloomy as a red cloud.
When everyone arrived at the well, they dug up the weeds and inspected it carefully, only to find that the moss covering it and the soil around the manhole cover had long been loosened.
The nursing staff easily pushed open the manhole cover, and an unpleasant sour smell hit their nostrils.
Two brave nurses climbed down along the ropes set up. As soon as they reached the bottom of the well, they saw the body of a soaked boy curled up and soaked in sewage.
If you smell the sewage carefully, it smells like bamboo vinegar.
"I found it, it's Xiao Langjun's body."
Taigong Zhao was so frightened that he looked stunned.
When Mr. Zhao Xiaolang's body was revealed again, Taigong Zhao looked at the pale young face and pondered for a long time, then spat out a mouthful of old blood on the ground and shouted with a choked voice:
"God damn thief, who harmed my son?"
Immediately, he fainted.
When Yu saw this, he collapsed on the ground in grief.
While weeping sadly, the servants helped the old couple and the young couple back to the North Hospital, while the nursing staff began to sort out Zhao Xiaolangjun's remains.
Xiao Sibao looked at the horrific corpse and was so frightened that he hid in Chu Nanzhi's arms and did not dare to open his eyes.
Chu Nanzhi held her in his arms and comforted her, and then the little guy calmed down.
Chu Nanzhi first went to check the body and saw a deep strangulation mark on his neck. It was obvious that someone had strangled him alive while he was not prepared.
It met my suspicion.
Then, she hugged Xiao Sibao and followed closely behind the county magistrate and county magistrate, and walked together to the living room in the outer courtyard with a heavy look on her face.
Magistrate Hu's face was gloomy and uncertain at this time, and he didn't know what to say to calm his complicated emotions.
When he was the only one left in the main hall, Magistrate Hu looked at Chu Nanzhi and couldn't help but complain:
"My aunt, I asked you to search for me, but you found a body for me. Now that's good. The missing persons case has turned into a murder case. What should I do?"
"My lord is confused."
Sun County Cheng, however, explained bitterly and disapprovingly:
"Now that the young man's body has been found in this mansion, the gangsters have been ruled out, and only the internal conflicts in the mansion remain. Your Excellency just happened to be able to leave, so there is nothing to worry about."
"This is the truth."
Magistrate Hu frowned.
But he felt sorry for the money.
If the young man can be found intact, Taigong Zhao will be extremely grateful and will be rewarded with countless gold, silver and jewels.
Now that he has lost his beloved son, it would be fine if he could still be grateful to himself for finding out the truth for him, but if he were to vent his anger on him, the gain would outweigh the loss.
If you don't tell me secret words, I just want to see the tickets in your pocket.
