Tan An was startled, took a few steps, and asked: "Wait a minute, you said there was a scream coming from inside?"
The two of them were startled by the sudden arrival of the official. People are naturally afraid of the official. One of them immediately replied: "Exactly, we were passing by just now, some distance away, and heard something moving inside."<
/p>
Another person tugged at the corner of his friend's clothes and said hurriedly: "Maybe we heard wrongly. This place is next to the street. How could someone commit murder?"
Obviously, I don’t want to offend the interviewer, nor do I want to cause trouble for no reason.
Tan An's eyes brightened and he waved them away. He slowly approached the door of the bookstore and listened attentively.
Faintly, it seemed that Ye Buhui was crying.
Tan Anxin was startled and slowly opened the door of the bookstore.
The smell of blood rushed out the moment the door was opened.
"Someone is injured inside!" This was Tan An's first reaction, but hearing the cry, he felt that something had happened to Boss Ye, otherwise Ye Buhui would not have cried.
He wished that this matter had something to do with Su Ziji, but thinking about Boss Ye's condition, he felt that this possibility was unlikely. It was more likely that Boss Ye suddenly fell seriously ill and died.
But in this case, if Su Ziji was inside at this time, wouldn't it mean he took advantage of the situation and took advantage of this opportunity to appease Ye Buhui?
Tan An, who originally didn't want to go in, thought of this, gritted his teeth and walked in quietly.
Suddenly a voice came from the inner room, and then Su Ziji's voice was heard: "Don't be afraid, since Dad has entrusted you to me, I will not let you down."
As soon as he heard this, Tan An was struck by lightning. He stayed for a while before waking up and peeking inside.
The light in the room was very dark, and Su Ziji was dragging something. At first glance, the sky was pitch black, and a gust of cool wind blew in. Tan An shivered, feeling dazzled.
Tan An squinted and stared at it, only to see that he was dragging a dead body, and blood was slowly flowing out of the body.
"I'm afraid it's murder!" Tan An's head buzzed, his heart beat violently, like a drum, and he no longer dared to go inside.
There were Ye Buhui's voice and Su Ziji's comforting voice inside. Tan An hesitated for a moment, then slowly turned around and backed out while the people inside didn't notice him.
It wasn't until I walked out of the bookstore door that I breathed a sigh of relief.
"Su Ziji killed someone!" Of course Tan An would not think that it was Ye Weihan or Ye Buhui who killed him. Subconsciously, he wished it was Su Ziji, so as soon as he realized it, his heart surged with joy. p>
If Su Ziji really kills people, even if he is already at the top of the list, he will have no future!
No, not only does he have no future, Su Ziji will definitely go to jail if he is involved in a life-and-death lawsuit. Even if he wants to save his life for the first time in the case, he will be stripped of his fame and exiled for three thousand miles.
When the time comes, Ye Buhui will be helpless. No matter how hard he tries, are he still afraid that she won't be tempted?
Even if he is not tempted, he first gets her body, makes Ye Buhui his wife, and gradually has a child. I don’t believe that she will not change her mind.
I almost went through this matter in my mind, which filled Tan An with infinite hope.
"Breaking through directly, not to mention the danger, and even breaking up with Ye Buhui, I want to report it immediately to the government and let the government arrest Su Ziji, and then I will comfort Ye Buhui!"
Thinking of this, Tan An suddenly felt like there was wind in his legs, and he felt as if he could run thousands of miles at night.
"What? Su Ziji killed someone?"
Although Tan An was on official business, he could not easily see the county magistrate, so when Tan An went back to report the matter, it was the magistrate who saw him.
Because he had heard about the conflict between Tan An and Su Ziji earlier, when the master heard about it, he couldn't help but look at Tan An with "Are you crazy?"
"Tan An, are you dissatisfied with Su Ziji and unwilling to report the good news, so you deliberately used such words to frustrate me?"
If this is the case, this guy can no longer stay in the public service as an errand.
Tan An hurriedly bent down, saluted the master, and said in a low posture: "Master, you have wronged me. I admit that I do not like Su Ziji, but that is just a personal grudge. As an official, how can I
Maybe he deceived you and the county magistrate on such a big matter?"
"This is a major murder case. I lied. When people pass by, won't it be clear to me? Why should I tell such a big lie that can be exposed as soon as it is exposed? How can I still offend someone for nothing?"
This makes sense.
But Tan An is right. Could it be that Su Ziji, a newly admitted scholar, really killed someone?
This is not a trivial matter. It is related to the first-class case that has just been passed. The master did not dare to make a decision on his own. He pondered for a moment and said: "I will report it to your lord immediately, Capt. Li."
"Master, what are your orders?" A man made of iron came over.
This is the head catcher responsible for patrol matters. Strictly speaking, he is a junior official like Tan An and has no rank. However, he is also the number one person in Linhua County. Even if he is a master, he is relatively polite.
It is related to the head of a case in the government. The matter is not trivial. The Master pondered for a moment before ordering: "Go and gather the police for patrol. Surround the Ye's Book Store first. I will report to your lord and wait for your lord to decide the matter." p>
Saying that he was worried, he warned again: "Su Ziji is at the top of the list and has a reputation. If he wants to win or be punished, he must first lose his reputation."
"And you have to pay for the arrest ticket."
The imperial magistrates who maintain law and order in the county are patrol inspectors, but county magistrates also have their own teams. The power to arrest people is mainly in the county. If someone is arrested without the approval of the county magistrate, he will be punished if he is discovered.
"Don't worry, Master. I understand all the rules. I'll gather the people right away. I'll make sure I won't miss you and your Excellency's business."
Knowing that if there was no accident, the county magistrate would not be indifferent to the serious case of human life, so Capt. Li immediately responded and prepared to lead the arrest.
As for whether a good person will be arrested by mistake, Capt. Li is not responsible for this matter. He can only follow orders.
"Tan An, you come with me to see the Lord." The master said to Tan An, sighing secretly in his heart, fearing that the county magistrate's mood will get worse again.
Sure enough, Magistrate Zhang was shocked when he heard about this: "What, did you drink too much and go crazy? The first person in the government to commit murder?"
Magistrate Zhang was about fifty years old, with a tired look on his pale face. He was originally calm and serene, but now his expression changed. He kept asking questions before he calmed down.
"This is a big deal. You did the right thing. You surrounded Ye's book store first, and then sent people in to investigate."
"The king's law is merciless. What Tan An said is true. Even if Su Ziji is a new criminal in the government, he cannot let it go. But if this matter is false..."
Magistrate Zhang glanced at Tan An, who was standing with his hands down, and said coldly: "I see that the hard work of your Tan family is not your fault, but you and your son no longer have to stay in the county government as errands." p>
"Please rest assured, sir, everything I said is true." Tan An said while cupping his hands and sweating.
