At this moment, Zhou Jun stepped forward, called out, and said, "I want to present a new piece of physical evidence."
Zhang Chuping wondered: "New physical evidence?"
Zhou Jun nodded and said: "The new physical evidence is the 30 pieces of money for selling one's body."
When Jiang Yu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly shouted: "Those 30 strings were embezzled by Zhou Dinghai a long time ago, where can I find them now?!"
Zhou Jun thought: Jiang Yu forged signatures and fingerprints, and deliberately avoided meeting the third party except Zhou Dinghai. Maybe he thought the situation was perfectly set up, but he happened to forget one piece of evidence.
money.
Money in the Tang Dynasty was different from today's money.
There is no electronic transfer, no acceptance bill, but real copper coins.
One copper coin plus a rope weighs almost 4 kilograms, and 30 copper coins equals 120 kilograms, which is close to the weight of an adult.
If you want to transfer such a heavy "huge amount of money", various problems will naturally arise.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jun ignored Jiang Yu's clamor and continued: "When my father sent the 30 pieces of money from selling his body to Jiang Yu's home, it was at 2:00 on the sixth day of April, and Butler Xu came to find Jiang Yu's future wife.
Hours and hours, in which there is only less than an hour's leisure."
Zhang Chuping listened and looked through the case files. It was indeed as Zhou Jun said.
Zhou Jun: "Thirty dollars is as heavy as a mountain. If you want to move out of the house and hide it within an hour, there are only two ways."
"The first is to carry it in a car, and the second is to carry it out separately."
"However, it was noon at the time, and the place where the incident occurred was located in a busy city with many pedestrians. Moreover, the surrounding neighbors were familiar with Jiang Yu's appearance."
"If you use a car as a transport, the risk will be too great; if you carry it separately, you may not have enough time."
"Therefore, Jiang Yu had no other choice but to find a secret place at home to hide the money before the Xu family found him, and then secretly take it out after everything calmed down."
After listening to Zhou Jun's words, others were still thinking and analyzing, but Jiang Yu said angrily: "It's nonsense, extremely ridiculous!"
Zhou Jun turned around, smiled and winked at Jiang Yu, with a narrow-minded expression on his face that said, "I knew you would be anxious."
Zhang Chuping gave Zhou Jun a slap in the face and asked, "Do you want to say that the 30 pieces of money are now hidden in Jiang Yu's home?"
Jiang Yu was inexplicably angry just now, which already convinced Zhou Jun that his guess was not wrong.
So, he said to Zhang Chuping: "I am sure that the money for selling my body must be hidden in Jiang Yu's home now."
Zhang Chuping turned his head and glanced at the county magistrate Shao Chang beside him.
The latter shook his head and said: "I searched Jiang's house and found nothing."
Zhou Jun said: "The place where the money is hidden must be very secret, but there is a way for the common people to make Jiang Yu tell the location."
Zhang Chuping and Shao Chang were both stunned.
The former asked Zhou Jun: "Did you just say that there is a way to get Jiang Yu to reveal the place where the money is hidden?"
Seeing Zhou Jun nod, Zhang Chuping suddenly became interested and said: "What's the method? Tell me quickly."
Zhou Jun: "The common people need a few items, and I hope the Ming government will fulfill them."
Zhang Chuping: "Say."
Zhou Jun: "A small table, two stools, and a soft cloth."
Zhang Chuping asked: "That's all?"
Zhou Jun: "That's all."
Zhang Chuping waved his hand: "Go and prepare quickly."
Not long after, what Zhou Jun wanted was delivered.
I saw Zhou Jun put the tables and chairs in place, folded the soft cloth into a pile, and placed it on the table.
Zhang Chuping and Shao Chang looked at the novelty, so they simply came down from the hall and walked to Zhou Jun.
Zhou Jun first sat down on a stool, then pointed to the stool opposite and said to Jiang Yu who was not far away: "Please take a seat."
Jiang Yu subconsciously took a step back: "What do you want?"
Zhang Chuping shouted to Jiang Yu: "I'm here to watch, what are you trying to shirk? Come and sit down!"
Jiang Yu had no choice but to sit opposite Zhou Jun.
Other people in the hall, including the recorder, government officials and police officers, all gathered around.
Zhou Jun first took out a scroll of paper from his arms and spread it out. On it was a map of the layout of a small courtyard building.
Someone immediately recognized that the small courtyard in the painting was Jiang Yu's home.
Zhou Jun motioned to Jiang Yu and asked the latter to place his left hand, palm up, on the soft cloth.
Jiang Yu hesitated for a while and then put his hand up.
Zhou Jun first put his three fingers together, placed them on Jiang Yu's radial artery, and made a gesture to feel his pulse, and then laid the map flat on the table.
Seeing this strange scene, Zhang Chuping was a little confused and asked Shao Chang: "Is this... a consultation?"
The latter was also confused and didn't know why.
But they don't know that the action of taking the pulse in Chinese medicine is often used to calculate heart rate in Western medicine.
Zhou Jun just wanted to know Jiang Yu's heart rate at all times during the next inquiry.
After taking a pulse, Zhou Jun first waited for Jiang Yu's heartbeat to calm down, then pointed to the direction of the main entrance of the small courtyard on the map and asked: "Did you hide those 30 pieces here?"
Jiang Yu snorted coldly: "No."
Zhou Jun asked again: "Is it really not true?"
Jiang Yu raised his voice: "No!"
Zhou Jun moved his finger down to the central axis corridor on the map and asked, "Did you hide those 30 pieces here?"
Jiang Yu snorted again: "No."
Zhou Jun: "Really?"
Jiang Yu: "No!"
In this way, Zhou Jun divided the floor plan of Jiang Yu's courtyard into dozens of areas and asked about them one by one.
This unheard-of interrogation method shocked everyone around him.
The county magistrate Zhang Chuping asked Shao Chang hesitantly: "What kind of method is this?"
Shao Chang scratched his head: "It's a bit like the "Five Listenings of Prison Observation"... Observe his words, if they are not straight, he will be annoyed; watch his color, if he is not straight, he will be embarrassed; watch his breath, if he is not straight, he will be breathless; watch his breath, if he is not straight, he will be breathless.
When listening, if one is not straight, one will be confused; if one’s eyes are not straight, one will be confused.”
"But it's not exactly the same. I always feel like something is wrong."
On the other side, Zhou Jun pointed to the dining room in the small courtyard and asked, "Did you hide those 30 strings here?"
Jiang Yu pursed his lips slightly and replied: "No, no."
Zhou Jun, who had been feeling his pulse, suddenly felt Jiang Yu's heart rate speed up.
Zhou Jun asked again: "Is it really not true?"
Jiang Yu raised his chin slightly and said, "No."
Zhou Jun glanced at Jiang Yu and continued to ask without pausing.
After asking about all the areas in the entire courtyard, Zhou Jun picked out four areas from the middle. They were the dining room, the middle hall, the back door room, and the southwest wall.
Because Jiang Yu had varying degrees of micro-expressions and subtext when answering these four areas, which means that these four areas are more likely to hide stolen money.
When Zhou Jun asked about the dining room area for the second time, Jiang Yu's heart beat faster again, and he pursed his lips again and said, "No."
After asking all the questions, Zhou Jun was already sure that the 30 coins were hidden in the dining room.
why?
In fact, using map modeling and then dividing areas for micro-expression and subtext interrogation, this interrogation method has been widely used in modern times to find explosives, corpse dumping sites, criminal evidence and other occasions.
For example, in previous lives, the "146 Kidnapping, Murder and Cremation Case" and the "411 Fish Box Poisoning Case" were both detected using this method. In the police circles, this investigation method is also called the "three-dimensional map partition micro-testing method".
』.
To elaborate, in this interrogation method, the most critical thing is the recognition of micro-expressions and subtext.
For example, in micro-expressions, there is some common sense.
When a suspect answers a question, hunching one shoulder represents lack of confidence, slightly raising the chin represents embarrassment, puckering the mouth represents a desire to interrupt the topic, and crossing the arms across the chest represents defensiveness.
And in the subtext, there are several concepts like this.
When the suspect gives a negative answer, he adds a negative word to form a "double negative". For example, when someone asks if he stole money, he answers "No, there is absolutely no way I would steal money"; or,
When in the negative, add a supplement to form an "extra factual supplement", such as answering "No, I never knew where the money was put" when asking whether money was stolen.
In both cases, you may be lying.
Of course, if only one of these symptoms is true, it may be due to the suspect's habit; however, if more than one of these symptoms is true and repeated when being questioned, then the suspect is most likely to be lying.
What's more, using heart rate detection as an auxiliary means further improves the accuracy of judging micro-expressions and subtext.
Therefore, Zhou Jun determined that the dining room was where Jiang Yu hid his money.
When Zhou Jun announced the result, Jiang Yu pretended to be calm, but his slightly trembling lips had already betrayed his inner fear.
Seeing Jiang Yu's expression, Zhang Chuping nodded and said to Shao Chang: "Have someone search the dining room, search carefully!"
Before Shao Chang could answer, Zhou Jun suddenly said: "Please wait a moment, Ming Mansion."
Zhang Chuping looked at Zhou Jun, somewhat confused.
Zhou Jun actually took out another stack of paper from his arms, pulled out a floor plan of a house called "dining room" from the middle, and spread it on the table again.
Jiang Yu's face turned pale and his whole body was shaking.
Zhang Chuping laughed out loud when he saw this, and asked with great joy: "Where did you get all these drawings?"
Zhou Jun replied: "In the Ming Dynasty, I visited Jiang Yu's landlord and spent some money to get the design drawings of the small courtyard."
After answering, Zhou Jun moved his finger to the floor plan of the dining room and said to Jiang Yu: "Let's do it again."
Jiang Yu completely collapsed, his nose twitched, and he almost cried.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Chuping finally learned the ins and outs of the incident from Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu was addicted to gambling and not only lost all his savings and rent money, but also owed a large debt to the gambling house.
The gambling house promised that if the money was not returned within the time limit, it would be reported to the Imperial Medical Office.
Jiang Yu, who was desperate, happened to see Zhou Dinghai in the dental market that day.
The latter was chatting with others, bragging that Zhou Ze, the eldest son of Zhou, was successful in his studies and had a bright future, and would surely become famous and prosperous in the future.
When Jiang Yu heard this, he began to plot and set up a scheme in his mind. He used himself as a slave as a cover to defraud and sell himself to pay for the emergency.
Things went smoothly. During the entire transaction, Jiang Yu did not interact with anyone else except Zhou Dinghai, and he faked the signature and fingerprints on the deed to clear up the relationship.
In this way, the witnesses and physical evidence all point to Zhou Dinghai. Even if outsiders can see the doubts, they cannot convict Jiang Yu of any crime due to the lack of evidence.
However, Jiang Yu did not expect that the money for selling her body would eventually become the only flaw.
After Jiang Yu confessed, Shao Chang also led the police to find the stolen money from the dining room of the former's home.
It turned out that Jiang Yu buried the 30 coins in a deep pit under the stove hole, covering it with soil, lime, stone slabs and firewood.
Such a hidden hiding place, if he hadn't confessed it himself, it would have been difficult to find it through ordinary searches.
At the end of the case, according to the relevant text in the "Tang Lv Su Yi": If the same person is sold to each other, or if the master's plan is to sell the other person as a slave, the seller and the sold person will have no leader and will be exiled for two thousand miles.
Jiang Yu was the chief culprit for betraying Yuan Miao and was sentenced to two thousand miles of exile.
The buyer Xu Fu, in accordance with the provisions of the Tang Dynasty law "Those who do not know the information will not sit down", "it is not the fault of the buyer" and does not bear any responsibility.
As for Zhou Dinghai, although he didn't know about it, as a servant of the tooth, he was not familiar with the rules of the tooth and did not respect the city order. He was sentenced to redeem ten pounds of copper.
At this point, the case of selling a beloved man has come to an end.
