406 Shapeshifting

Jiji just looked at Todayama and didn't say anything else.

Todayama seemed to have read through his mind and said: "It is actually not difficult to find the person who exchanged killings with you. Since it is an exchange of killings, he is naturally the enemy of the person you killed. The list of enemies provided by the deceased is

There is the name of the chief, but he was excluded because he had sufficient alibi. The place where the eldest young master of the Jiji family was killed is not far from the chief’s house. Although I haven’t asked him yet, I dare

Definitely, he can't find any alibi. So, he is most likely to be the person who exchanged murders with you! As for why he wanted to kill the wife of the deceased, I have guessed a thing or two. I asked him before, what is his family's identity?

If he had any grudge with the village chief, the village chief was evasive. The village chief's family was a big family in the village, and the deceased's family was very poor. However, in a short period of time, they suddenly became rich and built a big tile-roofed house. Where did the money come from? I

I believe it may be related to this case."

There was no blood at all on Jijicai's face.

Todasandao: "Since I have found the definite evidence of your murder, I didn't bring the police to arrest you. Do you know why?"

Jiji shook her head sadly.

"Because I know there must be a reason for you to do this. And it is an understandable reason."

Jiji looked at Mount Toda gratefully.

Toda Sandao: "Now, are you willing to tell me the truth?"

Ji Jicai had no choice. He could only nod his head and said: "Young Master, you raped my wife. I went to the Yamen to file a complaint, but the Yamen said it was my wife who seduced him. I saw with my own eyes that they stuffed a ball of cloth into my wife's mouth.

He held my wife's hands and feet down and raped her without letting her scream. My wife cried and struggled, how could it be seduction? Seeing that my wife was so frightened and humiliated that she became like this, I vowed to kill him for revenge!

However, I knew that when he went out, he was followed by a bunch of thugs and servants. I followed him several times with a knife, but I had no chance to make a move. Instead, I was almost discovered by him. At this time, the commander came to my house and talked to me in private.

He said that it was impossible for me to kill him like this. I was so frightened by his words that I broke into a cold sweat. He then told me that he had a way for me to take revenge and asked me if I was willing. As long as I could take revenge, I would do anything.

Yes! He said that he would help me kill the eldest young master of the Jiji family, and I would help him kill the deceased and his wife."

Todayama was stunned and said: "Kill him and his wife? Why?"

"I asked him the same thing. He said that I don't need to know this, but I said, I must know whether he should kill him or not. I can't kill a good person. So he sneered and said that if both of them are good people, there will be no harm in the world.

There are no good people anymore! He said that the couple set up a trap and deliberately invited him to their house for a drink, but drugged his wine, and then left with an excuse. The mayor drank the drug and passed out. When he woke up

, he found that he was hugging a woman with his whole body. He thought it was his wife. He was drunk and did not bother to check carefully, so he had sex with her. Then someone came in with a lantern and a knife.

He saw the deceased, but the one beside him was the deceased's wife! The deceased's wife immediately cried and said that the chief had raped her. The chief was confused and didn't know what to do or what happened. The deceased took the

They forced him to write a confession at knifepoint, admitting that he had raped the deceased's wife and willing to pay a hundred taels of silver. The mayor was very frightened, and he had indeed had sex with the deceased's wife, so he wrote it in a daze.

Afterwards, they also gave them one hundred taels of silver. However, after the deceased couple got the one hundred taels, they were greedy and did not return the confession letter to him. Instead, they continued to extort money from him. If they did not give it, they threatened to sue.

He extorted three hundred taels of silver from the officials and the village chief, but the deceased and his wife still had no intention of giving up. Moreover, the deceased also made a request that he could not accept!"

"What request?"

"He asked the chief to let his wife sleep with him once, and the matter was evened out. And the chief's wife is the daughter of a wealthy family. There is no way she would agree to this ridiculous request and expose the matter instead. Therefore, the chief decided

Kill him. But he was worried that if he killed someone directly, it would arouse suspicion, because the deceased had already told his family and relatives about the incident. Of course, he just said that there was something in their hands, and he used money to seal their mouths.

, but didn’t say anything.”

Todasan said: "The human heart is greedy and greedy, which leads to the disaster of death."

Ji Jicai continued: "After hearing this, I thought that the deceased's family suddenly became rich during this period. It turned out to be that, so I believed it. The two of us began to discuss the specific details of the murder. It was agreed that I would kill first.

The wife of the deceased, then he killed the eldest young master of the Su family, and then I killed the deceased. He said that if I kill one more person, he will compensate me with two hundred taels of silver, and let us leave here and go to our distant relatives.

I agreed. Anyway, although the deceased had a good relationship with me, I didn't really like the couple as a couple. In order to take revenge, I couldn't care less. The two of us discussed the specific time of the killing so that the other party could leave the village that day.

Find evidence of alibi. After learning that the deceased went to his parents' house, we decided to take action. That day, I drank a lot and saw that there was no one around, so I took a pair of scissors to the deceased's house and asked her to open the door. She just happened to

While cooking, I was chatting with her in the kitchen. When she wasn't paying attention, I stabbed her head with scissors from behind, and she fell. I stabbed her a few more times to make sure she was dead, and then ran back.

The village chief kept his word, and three days later, he killed Master Jiji."

"How did he kill him, do you know?"

"He didn't say it, but he usually stayed with the eldest young master and had many opportunities. After he killed the eldest young master, he urged me to kill the deceased quickly. However, the Jiji family suspected that it was me who did it, so they arrested me

After being beaten severely, the head of the village came forward and persuaded us to send him to the Yamen, so he was sent to the Yamen, and later he was released. Jiji's family kept watching us, and I didn't have time to kill him. Besides, I was sick again.

There is no way to take action."

Todayama asked: "But now that the deceased is also dead, do you know if he has any other enemies?"

Jiji then said: "I don't know."

After hearing what he said, Todayama said: "You can rest in peace and recuperate, and you don't have to worry about other things."

Jiji looked at him, unable to believe her ears, and said: "Master, you..., are you serious about not arresting me?"

Todayama smiled and said: "If what you said is true, then you are killing the people who deserve to be killed, and you are doing justice for heaven, so why should I bother you?"

Jiji was stunned, with hot tears pouring out. She struggled to get up, knelt down on the bedside and kowtowed: "Thank you, Mr. Qingtian! Thank you..."

Todayama left Song Cai's house and went straight to the village leader's house.

The prefect and the others were drinking tea and chatting here. When they saw him coming in, the prefect quickly stood up and asked, "Dusi, what's going on? Have you discovered anything?"

Todasan said: "I have to continue my inspection - I want to have a private chat with the chief, is that okay?"

The chief was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said, "Okay, let's talk in the study."

The two of them left the living room and came to the study. Todayama closed the door, sat down on the chair, looked at the director, and said: "You were blackmailed by the deceased couple, and you exchanged the murder with Jiji. I already know

Got it!"

The chief was originally standing in front of the chair with a bow. When he heard this, his knees softened and he fell down on the chair with a thud.

Todasan said: "I talked to you alone about this matter instead of letting the police arrest you and take you to the Yamen for further interrogation. Do you know why?"

The head of the village was immediately overjoyed and quickly got up and knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you for your kindness! I know what to do. I still have more than a hundred taels of silver at home. I will donate it to the elder first, and then immediately sell the land and give it to the elder."

Send it..."

Todayama shook his head and said: "I'm not here for this. You tell me what happened first, and then I decide what to do. Remember! Don't lie! Because I will check. As long as I know you have a lie, I will take it immediately.

You will be punished by going to jail!"

The head of the village kowtowed and said: "You dare not lie, you must tell the truth!" As he said that, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and told him how he was framed and blackmailed by the deceased couple and how he went to Jiji to discuss the exchange of murders.

, and it is indeed consistent with what Jijicai said.

Todayama asked: "How did you kill the young master of the Jiji family?"

"I usually have a good relationship with the eldest young master. He has always coveted Ji Jicai's widowed third sister. That day I lied to him and said that I would invite the third sister to my home. When he comes alone, can he persuade his wife?

, it all depends on his own ability. I told him not to tell anyone else, and not to bring any servants, so as not to frighten his daughter-in-law by talking too much. He agreed wholeheartedly and came that day. I hid in his place beforehand.

I was holding a pebble in the grass on the road. When he passed by, I suddenly knocked him down from behind. I hit him a few more times and he died. Then I threw the stone away and ran home. At that time

No one saw it."

Todayama stood up and said: "This young master has done many evil things. He deserves his death. However, I have to further investigate whether the wife of the deceased is as hateful as you said. If it is not consistent with what you said, I will come to you again. Then, I'm afraid.

I told you in the Yamen!"

"I understand, I will never dare to deceive the great master!"

Todayama came out, with a depressed look on his face, and said to the prefect: "I have searched repeatedly, but there are still no clues. There is really nothing I can do."

The prefect was also disappointed. He forced out a smile and said, "It's okay, sir, you've done your best. Let's go back."

The group of people returned to the city before dark. Looking at Toda Mountain in the distance, the judge smiled faintly and said: "Your Majesty, it seems that the master's ability to solve cases is not very good."

The prefect sighed and shook his head.

Jiji was alone at home. He cooked two side dishes, warmed a pot of wine, hummed a little tune, and drank alone in the room.

He was pouring himself a drink and thinking about it so beautifully that suddenly, his head was fixed with hands from behind. At the same time, a cold feeling hit his neck, and a bright dagger was placed across his neck, and a low hoarse voice

It sounded in my ears: "If you don't want to die, don't shout!"

"Yes! Master, please spare my life!" Jiji was frightened, thinking that a robber had come to the house.

"Tell me how you set up a trap for your third sister to seduce the young master of Jiji's family!"

Jiji was shocked and said: "What?"

"I don't want to repeat it a second time!" The hand twisting his neck suddenly increased its strength, and Jiji felt that his neck was about to be broken. He was scared to death.

Jiji knew in her heart that since this person had already explained that they had set up a trap to persecute the young master, he must be someone who knew the inside story. It seemed that someone was unable to resist and sued the officials, so the Yamen sent someone to investigate. Now the knife was placed on his neck.

What other choice does he have? Fortunately, it's just for money. The crime won't lead to death, and he can just push everything on the crazy lady.

Jiji stammered: "It's all my wife's idea, it has nothing to do with me! She saw that Jiji's family was rich and she was usually very sexy, so she came up with this idea. Originally, she wanted Sanniang to

I went to seduce the young master of Jiji's family, but failed to seduce him several times. So my wife said to set a trap. She invited him to her home, drugged him, and then took off his clothes.

, Sanniang also took off her clothes and went to bed. When he woke up and the two of them had sex, I rushed in with a stick. That's it. But my third sister refused, so... - Master, please forgive me! This matter is completely

It’s all my wife’s idea, it’s all this bitch’s greed for money, it has nothing to do with me!”

The man behind said: "It really has nothing to do with you?"

Jiji was overjoyed. After hearing this, the man in black seemed to be relieved and quickly said: "It's really all my wife's idea and has nothing to do with me!"

The person behind him said: "Well, take out the confession that you forced the young master of Jiji's family to write and the money to blackmail him!"

Jiji quickly agreed, stood up, took out the things from the box, and put them on the table. From the corner of his eye, he saw a man in black standing there, with a black scarf covering his face, cold eyes, and holding a cold light.

The dagger was very scared.

After the man in black killed Jiji Cai, he had just passed Jiji Mountain when a voice called out: "Stay here!"

Todayama turned into the shape of a deer, and he released thousands of strands of majestic energy, which were densely packed and woven into a giant net, sweeping towards the man in black. The giant net grew in the wind, and instantly became several acres in size, covering his head and face.

, rolling towards the entire line of men in black like water. Time and space seemed to be caught in the net and solidified.
