Mr. Gu nodded calmly, then turned to look at County Magistrate Zhou, meaning that the rest of the matter will be left to you.
"That's unreasonable!"
Magistrate Zhou immediately pointed at Chai Yan's nose and angrily said: "Chai Yan, you clearly came here at the fourth watch last night. Not only did you enter the yard, you also entered the room of the two deceased people! The shoe prints match.
The best evidence, you are so bold, you actually dare to lie in public!"
Captain Qin immediately echoed Magistrate Zhou's tone, held the handle of the knife and threatened: "The bold murderer brutally murdered the female family members of the Su family. How did he commit the crime? It's hard to tell the truth!"
Chai Yan was horrified and immediately shouted: "Hey, hey, hey, are you too hasty to convict me like this? I didn't kill anyone, I'm not a murderer, it's none of my business, okay?"
"Noisy!" Magistrate Zhou made a gloomy sound, very dissatisfied with Chai Yan's attitude, and immediately ordered: "Qin arrested the head, and immediately escorted the murderer back to the county jail to await trial on a later date!"
"Yes!" Qin Baotou immediately promised in a loud voice.
"Master Qingtian, thank you Master Qingtian..." Su Jinhan and Mrs. Su shouted in unison.
Just as Capt. Qin was about to step forward to escort him, Chai Yan desperately shouted loudly: "You are looking down on people's lives! You are looking down on people's lives!"
Magistrate Zhou waved his hands impatiently and said: "Take them away, take them away..."
Mr. Gu was not happy to hear these words, and immediately frowned.
But Capt. Qin had already rushed over and grabbed Chai Yan by the collar, and said angrily and fiercely: "All the witnesses and physical evidence are there, do you still have the nerve to cry out for injustice? Be honest with me!"
Chai Yan was not at all afraid of Qin's arrest. Not only did he look at him with his eyes, he also argued with reason: "What kind of personal evidence and physical evidence? Do you have the ability to show it to me? Who saw me murder with his own eyes? I and the deceased
There is no injustice or grudge, so why should I kill them? Just based on the shoe prints, you can conclude that I am a murderer. Isn’t it reckless or a disregard for human life? What is it?”
"Hey! You kid..."
The angry Captor Qin had just raised Chai Yan's lapel to teach him a lesson when he heard Mr. Gu's voice coming from behind him: "Captain Qin, please step back..."
Seeing that it was Mr. Gu who spoke, Mr. Qin did not dare to continue. He had to temporarily let go of Chai Yan and stepped aside unwillingly, but his eyes were still fixed on Chai Yan.
Although Chai Yan was wrapped in chains, his head held high was like a righteous man who was about to die generously!
Mr. Gu slowly walked up to Chai Yan with his hands behind his back, looked into his eyes and asked: "You didn't kill anyone?"
"Yes! I didn't, absolutely not! I don't know them, I don't even know they exist, why should I kill them? Unless I am a madman, almost a murderer..."
Mr. Qin took advantage of the opportunity and replied: "Maybe you are the one!"
"Bah!" Chai Yan spat, and immediately retaliated: "You are the lunatic murderer, and so are your whole family!"
"Bastard, who are you scolding?" Qin Baotou raised his fist as if he was about to hit Chai Yan.
"Quiet!" Mr. Gu's voice was not loud, but his tone was unmistakable. The intimidating power of those who have been in power for many years is evident.
Mr. Qin immediately calmed down his expression, and Chai Yan also chose to silence his voice at the right time. Of course, he would not be stupid enough to contradict Mr. Gu. Even a fool could see that he was the person with the highest rank at the scene.
After the scene calmed down, Mr. Gu looked at Chai Yan again.
After a while, Mr. Gu asked: "Chai Yan, how do you explain the shoe prints in the deceased's house?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Chai Yan's heart was in suspense. He had a vague feeling that Mr. Gu was intervening in the case for the last time.
You must seize this opportunity to defend yourself!
Chai Yan breathed out secretly, turned to look at Mr. Gu and said: "Mr. Gu, the shoes on my feet were bought from a clothing store after I entered the city yesterday..."
"The answer is wrong!" Magistrate Zhou immediately jumped out: "Who asked you where you bought the shoes? Mr. Gu asked why there were your shoe prints in the room of the deceased?"
Mr. Gu didn't say anything, he just stood with his hands behind his back and looked at Chai Yan quietly, waiting for his explanation.
Chai Yan asked back: "Mr. Zhou, why are you so sure that the shoe prints in the house are mine? I can buy shoes in a clothing store, but couldn't the murderer buy them?"
Magistrate Zhou wanted to speak, but Mr. Gu spoke first: "Do you think it's just a coincidence that the shoe prints match?"
"That's right, a coincidence! It's definitely a coincidence!" Chai Yan's tone was extremely certain.
Chai Yan knew very well that he could never admit that he had entered the deceased's yard and room last night, otherwise no one might believe him even if he said it in such a spectacular way that the sun, moon, and stars would turn upside down!
Chai Yan then said: "Mr. Gu, please take a closer look at my shoes. The clothing store told me when I bought them that these shoes are not only good in style but also of high quality in workmanship. They are sold in many shoe and clothing stores in Anping County.
Let’s just talk about their shop. When there are many customers, they can sell several pairs a day... Oh, I am really unlucky! The size of my shoes is exactly the same as that of the murderer. I am wronged...
..."
County Magistrate Zhou didn't believe Chai Yan's words. He came to Mr. Gu's side in two steps and said softly: "Mr. Gu, this kid must have entered the house in the middle of the night and killed someone. You saw it too, except for his
There are no other suspicious traces of footprints..."
Mr. Gu glanced sideways at Magistrate Zhou and said calmly: "I have my own sense of discretion!"
"Yes." Magistrate Zhou did not dare to say any more.
Mr. Gu thought for a moment, then turned to Mr. Qin and said, "Take the suspect back to the county government office!"
