After saying this, Wu Qing bowed his head again and said nothing.
Tie Tang squinted his eyes, rather hesitant.
Didn’t you get scammed?
In fact, he didn't know why Wu Qing went there, but there must be a reason. Maybe it was his life-saving straw?
Snap!
There was no gavel, so Tie Tang took the copper ruler and slapped it hard on the table.
"Wu Qing, do you think you can't be convicted if you don't speak? The place where Cui Hong died is full of your fingerprints and footprints.
If you don’t have a reasonable wording... you will not be able to escape the guillotine in court."
Wu Qing opened his mouth bitterly, but in the end he didn't speak.
"Since you have a good relationship with Cuihong, why do you want to harm her? Are you really a heartless person?"
"Have you ever seen Cuihong's current state of death?"
"Half of the neck was wiped open, and the head and neck were almost separated. I had to waste countless needles and threads before it could be repaired.
Are these...are you doing this on purpose? Is this what you really want?"
Wu Qing looked pained, then closed his eyes, rolled his ears back, and used his energy and blood to seal his sense of hearing.
An officer from the execution hall was about to step forward, but was stopped by Tie Tang.
"Forget it...just take it with you."
"The chief arrest... Why don't you let me wait and impose a few more punishments?"
"No!"
Tie Tang flatly refused: "He has already been charged with enough crimes now, not to mention that Cui Hong's death is almost irrefutable.
Just the incidents in which he escaped from prison, resisted arrest, injured, and hijacked police officers were enough for him to drink."
Tie Tang is not worried about how to deal with Wu Qing, since he can't escape anyway.
But judging from the current situation, Wu Qing seems to be only related to the Yihongyuan case, and there seems to be no obvious connection with the racecourse headless case.
Everything before was just Tie Tang’s conjecture.
If you want to prove the relationship between Wu Qing and the headless case in the racecourse, you have to find out whether there are other reasons for Cuihong's death.
"Head, I return the waist badge to you. Do you need to report to the magistrate now?" Yuan Hua squeezed over and handed over the Tietang waist badge.
"Are you out of your mind? Why do I need to report to the county magistrate about investigating a case?" Tie Tang felt a little confused.
The three leaders of the county government each perform their own duties.
Of course, in name, he is the largest magistrate in the county and is in charge of the overall situation.
But in actual implementation...none of the three parties will interfere in each other's affairs, unless it is a major or extremely serious accident.
Yuan Hua realized that he had made a mistake, nodded and followed Tie Tang to another cell.
"Wait outside the door and don't let anyone else in."
"Yes, head."
When I opened the door, I was greeted by the smell of meat and wine.
Qingfeng's mouth was full of oil after eating, and he was lying on the haystack and fast asleep.
"It's really yours." Tie Tang was happy.
As the case progressed, Qingfeng's suspicion was greatly reduced, and he knew the matter inside and out, so he quickly resumed his "privilege" of county arrest.
Eating a few pieces of meat and drinking some soju is not a big deal, no one cares.
Bang!
Tie Tang stepped forward and kicked the iron railing. The lingering sound shook the dazed Qingfeng.
"Who is so ignorant that he dares to disturb my dream?"
Qingfeng had veins on his forehead and was about to curse when he stood up. When he saw Tie Tang, his momentum immediately dropped.
"It turns out it's the chief police officer. Why, the case can't be solved, so he comes to trouble me?"
"Who said the case can't be solved? The murderer in Yihongyuan has been found, and the real murderer of the headless case in the racecourse is now in jail.
Tie is thinking...how to ask for credit from the higher ups."
"What does the chief arrest mean?" Qingfeng naturally understood that who else could be the real culprit in the racecourse case?
But he was wronged!
"Don't talk nonsense, if you want to get away with it, you have to rely on yourself.
Tell me...you and Cuihong entered the room, what exactly did they do inside? Did you notice anything strange?"
Qingfeng's teeth were itching with hatred, but he didn't dare to contradict Tie Tang. He could only pick up the remaining small pot of wine on the ground, raised his head and took a sip.
"Besides the matters between men and women...I am waiting in the room and there is nothing else."
"Cuihong, or is it you, have you been away for a long time?"
"No."
"Who will testify for you?"
"Emerald red."
"She's dead."
Qingfeng's face looked as ugly as possible, and it took him a long time to calm down.
"I really haven't been out. If I leave, other people in Yihong Courtyard will probably see it. Cuihong doesn't have it either. I'm here to have fun. How can I let her go?"
Tie Tang walked into the cell, approached Qingfeng, and groped around on his body.
"Iron Catcher, what do you want? Don't bully others too much."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Tie Tang asked while stroking Qingfeng's body.
"Have you ever learned the art of stretching muscles and pulling out bones?"
Qingfeng sneered: "The bone-shrinking technique is a juggling act performed by entertainers in the martial arts world. After all, Qing is a ninth-grade official, how can he learn such skills?"
"Yes, there are indeed not many signs of twisting of muscles and bones." Tie Tang stopped.
"I said I have never gone out, but if I want to kill someone, I have to wait until I leave Yihongyuan before killing me."
"So, you admit it? The arrest in Qing County is quite refreshing."
"Hey, don't throw dirty water on me. To be honest, I left the county government office. I was confused and didn't know where I was going. I fell asleep halfway."
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Tie Tang applauded.
"That is to say...at the time of the crime, you were asleep on an unknown street somewhere without any witnesses.
As expected of an old head catcher, this confession is very impressive."
Qingfeng's face turned red, knowing that no one would believe what he said.
The key is this is true!
Now he is a mute and eats Coptis chinensis - there is suffering to be said.
"What about your knife? Don't tell me that it was taken away while you were sleeping."
"The always-catching mastermind!" Qingfeng raised his thumb.
Seeing Tie Tang's anger rising, Qingfeng quickly added: "In addition to the sword, my wallet and waistband were also stolen. There are enough four taels of silver in it, enough for me to go there again." p>
He was heartbroken, but Tie Tang was extremely angry.
"You have been a policeman for so many years. If you were not 'highly respected', based on your strength and ability, I am afraid you would not be able to reach the position of county policeman.
You should know...how ridiculous what you are saying now is."
"Also, since the waist badge has been lost, why didn't you report it? Do you know that you have violated the court law?"
The imperial court has express regulations that once the official seals, tiger talismans, and waist badges of officials at all levels are lost, they must be reported immediately.
Anyone who conceals something or fails to report it will be deemed as dereliction of duty, and all consequences arising therefrom will be borne by oneself.
These tokens are extremely important. Although it cannot be said that seeing things is as good as seeing people, if someone uses them to do evil, it may cause disaster.
What's more, in addition to proving identity, these tokens actually have other functions.
Qingfeng said with a grimace: "I don't have time. As soon as I woke up and rushed back to the county office, I heard that something big had happened, and you arrested me later.
I can't say afterwards that I lost my badge while visiting a brothel. If word spread, wouldn't it make me a laughing stock?
I originally planned to go back and find a few people on the road to find out who was so bold..."
"Stop!" Tie Tang waved his hand to stop Qingfeng.
Now it seems that the person who stole these things is not an ordinary bag hunter, and is almost certainly the real culprit of the headless case at the racecourse.
"How much did you drink that night? How could you be so drunk that you were so unconscious?"
Speaking of this, Qingfeng also became a little confused...
After all, he is also a master of Yi Jin. When his blood is so strong, even after one or two kilograms of wine, his stomach is like water.
"So...there does seem to be something wrong. I drank a lot that night, but it wasn't like I was lying on the street drunk."
Tie Tang squatted down and carefully observed Qingfeng's expression.
