Chapter 1604 Looking for clues
"Mr. Zhao, please give it!"
Cheng Yaojin said with some gloating pleasure, "It's better to come by a good person than to come by a coincidence. He doesn't believe that Zhao Wuji will have such good luck every time."
Zhao Wuji did not answer Cheng Yaojin's words, but instead put his eyes on the young master. What he could feel was that Cheng Yaojin did not take his county magistrate seriously, and even could dominate his life and death in one sentence, but for the Zuo Master in front of him, he was definitely respected from the heart.
"You can read the file slowly and deal with the current case first."
Li Zhi was quite speechless. Do you need to talk about such a thing yourself? As the county magistrate here, don’t you even understand the most basic operation?
"Xiaomin has met the county magistrate, so please make the decision for us!"
After being promoted to the hall, a couple helped each other and walked in. When they saw Zhao Wuji, they hurriedly fell to the ground and cried.
"What are the injustices between you and me? Just tell me directly."
Zhao Wuji did not look impatience at all about the behavior of the two, but asked with a cautious look on his face.
Perhaps it was because of Zhao Wuji's attitude that infected the two of them. Although they were still sad and crying constantly, they could tell the story roughly.
The two are people from Changxi County and have to work in the fields every day. Just a few days ago, when his two-year-old son was taking a nap at home, they went to work in the fields. They thought they could finish the remaining work in the morning and go home to play with their children.
However, when the two of them finished the work in the field and returned home, their son, who was originally sleeping soundly on the bed, disappeared.
No matter how the two of them shouted at home and went out to search, they could never find their son. After thinking about it, they felt that the only one who could do such a thing might be the idle guy next to them, so they hurried over to declare customs.
"It's outrageous. It's lawless. In broad daylight, such a thing happens, and it's simply absent-minded!"
After hearing what happened, Cheng Yaojin roared loudly. Looking at the two of them, Cheng Yaojin knew that their lives were not very rich, and it was extremely rare to have a child.
"Ahem! Uncle Cheng, County Magistrate Zhao is here to control his emotions."
Li Zhi coughed twice and whispered, "The county magistrate hasn't spoken yet, why are you anxious?"
"Young Master, I have this temper. I really can't listen to such things."
After hearing His Highness's words, Cheng Yaojin was very embarrassed and sat back in disappointment, his face very ugly.
"Come, bring his neighbors here!"
After Zhao Wuji nodded calmly, he ordered the guards at the door. This matter was just the remarks of the couple. Of course, the speculation was relatively large and could not be used as evidence, so Zhao Wuji decided to bring that guy and question it first.
"Young master, you see that guy is a little indecisive. According to me, I should send someone to arrest that guy."
Zhao Wuji's approach is obviously to send someone to summon him instead of arresting criminals.
"Uncle Cheng, we are just bystanders. As for the truth of the case, we just need to wait quietly, and being anxious cannot solve any problem."
Li Zhi was also speechless about this old man's temper. Fortunately, this old man had never been a county magistrate, otherwise he would not know what trouble would have caused.
Soon, the neighbor of the couple was brought over and was thin, but his eyes kept rotating back and forth, and the deer-headed rat looked like a good person no matter how he looked.
"What are you doing..."
After seeing this guy, Cheng Yaojin's anger rose directly and suddenly got up and was about to give an order.
"Uncle Cheng, what are you going to do?"
Li Zhi hurriedly reached out and pressed him back, asking with a dark face, "Is it not clear enough that he said?"
"Do you have something to say when they accused you of stealing the child?"
Zhao Wuji slapped the gavel hard and asked directly, his voice very loudly.
"Adults know that when his child lost time, the villain was not at home at all. As for stealing the child, where did he start?"
Although the thin monkey-like man was startled, he reacted immediately and denied directly.
"Be careful of your words. If there is any false statement, the sin will be even higher, and you keep saying that you are not present at that time, who can prove your words?"
After hearing such words, Zhao Wuji was not moved at all. He first warned the other party and found that he had no intention of dodging or fearing at all, so he asked again.
"Sir, the villain has been working in the rice shop east of the city for some time. Everyone in the rice shop can prove it to the villain."
The thin monkey man looked at the couple helplessly, but he really couldn't figure out why they said they had stolen their children.
As a result, Zhao Wuji could only send someone to the east of the city to verify the guy's words again. Of course, he would not give these people the opportunity to collude with confessions, so he let them wait quietly here.
"Sir, this kid is right. He has been working in the rice shop for eight days and he only goes home in the evening every day, which doesn't match the time of committing the crime."
The guards came back soon and told the results of the investigation.
After hearing such words, the couple stopped doing it and cursed directly, saying that they had sufficient evidence to prove that the child was in the neighbor's home, and they even heard the child's crying.
Zhao Wuji still did not delay any delay. He sent someone to search for the two people and the thin monkey's home again, but found no trace of the child.
The case was deadlocked. The thin monkey had sufficient evidence to prove that he was not here and had no motive for the crime. It was obvious that the couple was a little unreasonable.
"Young Master, the case is basically confirmed now. When they went to the field to work, the child woke up and looked for his family. Then he met a bad person and took the child away directly."
After looking around, Cheng Yaojin told his thoughts.
"Wrong, a child who is less than two years old can't go far. Some clues must have been left behind by us..."
Zhao Wuji directly denied Cheng Yaojin's words. He always believed that the clues were still in the room, but he had not discovered them.
"Young Master, you see that this bastard never took me seriously from beginning to end and opposed me everywhere. If you hadn't supported him behind his back, I would have taught him a good lesson."
Seeing this calf's tail was about to rise to the sky, Cheng Yaojin's nose almost turned crooked and said to the young master in anger.
