To scare the snake away, only when the butterfly takes action will it have a chance; if it had remained calm, Li Mu would have been blinded.
Li Mu suddenly said: "Sir, what would happen if it were a flower and a butterfly?"
"If I were a butterfly..." Magistrate Wu Yong said with a smile: "I don't know how, I am a serious person!"
Li Mu smiled and said: "Sir, let me make a hypothesis? These days, I often make assumptions and try to figure out the character of Huadie. What would happen if I were Huadie... I have some clues!"
Wu Yong smiled and said: "If I were a butterfly and committed a murder somewhere, I would leave directly and stay in one place for a long time. As long as I stay away, I will be safe!"
Simple and crude, the effect is most obvious.
It's like Xie Wendong committed a crime, went to Africa, lived in a mountain valley for a few years, changed his ID card, and then had plastic surgery, he would definitely be safe, even the international police would have to catch him blind.
If the flower butterfly ran away thousands of miles away, Li Mu would be blinded.
But the flowers and butterflies are destined not to.
Li Mu smiled and said: "These days, I have been trying to figure out Huadie's character and his behavior. If Huadie ran away and hid thousands of miles away, I would accept his fate. But he won't, Huadie is too
I am proud, too proud, too contemptuous of the government, and too underestimated of me, the general judge...and this is the opportunity..."
"He was so proud that he directly posted a flower-picking sticker, directly stating that he had done it when he was young. He succeeded twice in a row, and the third time was in my hands... If he didn't win it back, how could he be willing to do so? I'm sure he won't leave.
, but stayed in Ningbo Mansion, watching me search everywhere but couldn't find him, that feeling of frustration!"
Wu Yong opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but fell silent.
Wu Yong said: "What should I do?"
"Flowers and butterflies have committed too many crimes and left too many traces!" Li Mu continued: "Sir, what does a flower picker need most?"
Wu Yong pondered for a moment and said: "Intelligence! Most women never leave the house and rarely go out. Even when they go out, they wear a veil. If there is no reliable source of information, how can a flower picker know that a woman is ugly or beautiful?
How to find the right target and start!”
Li Mu said: "Your Excellency, you are wise. When you attack flower thieves, you must find the right target. You must not be hungry or selective. You will not attack those who are too ugly. You will not attack those who are too old... In fact, many women stay in the boudoir and rarely go out.
When buying things, most of them are maids or slaves!"
"It only appears in a few places such as jewelry stores, rouge and gouache stores, clothing stores, and cloth stores! As long as you check it out, you will be close to the truth of the matter!"
Wu Yong said: "Summon Secretary Lu!"
"Yes, sir!" A government servant left.
Wu Yong said: "Secretary Lu is an old man from Ningbo Prefecture. With his eyes closed, he knows how many streets, how many shops there are in Ningbo Prefecture, and the situation of each family. He knows it best!"
Li Mu was slightly happy. With such a "living map", things were much easier to handle.
"Greetings to you two adults!" After a while, Secretary Lu came. He was a tough old man with an extremely ordinary appearance, except for a pair of shrewd little eyes.
"Old man, I have something to ask here!" Li Mu said.
"Sir, please speak!" Secretary Lu said.
Li Mu said: "Ningbo Prefecture, how many jewelry stores, rouge and gouache stores are there, and how many cloth stores and urban clothing stores are there?"
Secretary Lu said: "This is a large number. Please wait a moment, sir!"
After a while, Secretary Lu brought out an account book and said: "There are about twenty-five jewelry shops, about seventy-two rouge and gouache shops, about one hundred and five cloth shops, and there are only ten ready-made clothing shops.
It’s just home!”
Li Mu said: "Among these shops, how many are located in the south of the city!"
"South of the city?" Secretary Lu frowned slightly.
Chengnan is only a relative concept, not a definite one.
As Li Mu spoke, he took out a map. This is a city map of Ningbo Prefecture. He drew strokes on the map to describe its approximate range.
"The shops here are mainly..." Secretary Lu said, talking about the shops here.
"Songhua cloth! Who can afford it?" Li Mu asked again.
"Songhua cloth is expensive, about one hundred taels, and few people can afford it!" Secretary Lu said again: "At least only wealthy people can afford it."
Wealth here means an annual income of more than ten thousand taels of silver.
Li Mu said again: "Among the gouache, this kind of gouache..."
As he spoke, Li Mu took out a kind of gouache, which exuded a faint scent of jasmine.
Li Mu said: "Who can afford this kind of gouache!"
Secretary Lu said, "This kind of gouache is used a lot, but there are only a few shops where it can be sold!"
"And the height is 1.85 meters..."
"There are also cowhide shoes. Where are they sold? Who can afford them?"
Li Mu asked a few more questions, and Secretary Lu answered them.
Suddenly, clues that were not there appeared one after another, and there were quite a few clues. A single clue was inconspicuous, but many clues came together, and Huadie's target continued to shrink, and it was locked on a limited number of twelve people. Originally
It's like looking for a needle in a haystack, and the result becomes close at hand.
Li Mu looked at Wu Yong, and Wu Yong smiled and said: "We have summoned the elders of Ningbo Prefecture and many people from all walks of life. I am going to entertain them this afternoon to look for flowers and butterflies! No one can delay, even if they are seriously ill.
Carry him here!"
"Yes, sir!"
Immediately, the government servants left one by one to invite the guests.
"Can it really be found?" Wu Yong still asked.
"Humans live on the earth, not in the air. As long as they live and have the basic necessities of life, there will be traces left..." Li Mu said lightly: "As long as you are observant and careful, there will be a lot of evidence.
It’s obvious! I’m going to set up a dragnet to capture the flowers and butterflies, and it’s time for everything to end!”
Flowers and butterflies destroy world harmony!
Then take action and harmonize him.
…………
Ningbo Prefecture closed the city. Immediately Ningbo Prefecture was shocked and the people were shocked.
However, after the shock, the impact on life was not great. Many families prepared food in advance, etc., but it did not affect their lives. And the notice clearly stated that catching flowers and butterflies was understood by the people.
Then, the magistrate and the magistrate jointly summoned the big families in the city to the government office. In order to capture the flowers and butterflies, they ordered that all males over the age of twelve must come.
In the afternoon, everyone gathered in the government office. There were about a thousand people.
Magistrate Wu Yong stood in the chief position and was the first-in-command; Li Mu sat in the second position and was the second-in-command; other prefecture officials took their seats.
Magistrate Wu Yong stepped forward and said: "Huadie committed a crime, who is the murderer? It has been found! Now it is up to Mr. Li to tell who the murderer is?"
