Chapter 320 The shopkeeper of the boat merchant's house killed
The shopkeeper Lin Xiang, the "shipper business" in the south of Bazhou City, is busy in the business. Their business sells everything from food, rice, oil and salt, daily necessities, and they are doing a big deal, and there are only 10 or 20 people.
At this time, a man came in from outside the store, looked around in the store, saw Lin Xiang, and asked, "What are your store selling?"
Another young man ran over with a smile and said, "Customer, we are a grocery store, you can have whatever you want."
The man glared: "Have I talked to you? I'm asking him! What are you doing? Get out of here!"
The young man was stunned and said embarrassedly: "Cheer..."
"What official? I told you to get out of here, are your ears deaf?"
Lin Xiang smiled and smoothed out the situation: "Customer, the shop assistant is ignorant. Don't be skeptical about him. What do you want to order? I'll take it for you?"
The man looked up and down at Lin Xiang and sneered: "Didn't your guy just say that I have whatever I want in your shop. OK, let me have two ears!"
Lin Xiang was startled and smiled and said, "Your guest..."
"Don't you *** fart, do you have anything to do in your business? I just want someone's ears, don't you hear them? If not, just cut your ears to me!" The man picked up a kitchen knife from the container, patted the shelf, and said with his neck crossed.
Lin Xiang smiled coldly: "It seems that the guest is here to find fault."
The young man just came up and said, "If you want to find fault, you have to find out which one of the business runs."
"Which family is from? Is it a bitch or a turtle?" the man sneered.
Lin Xiang was furious and shouted, "Did you have loose bones? I want the man to give you a complete set?"
When I heard a quarrel in the business bank, passers-by gathered up to watch the fun. The man looked at the crowd outside the business bank, turned his head and smiled and looked up and down at Lin Xiang, slowly leaned over, and suddenly spat on his face. Then he laughed and turned around and left the business bank.
Lin Xiang reached out to touch his face, his saliva was wet, and in anger, he chased out of the door, grabbed the man and punched him in the chest.
With a bang, the man screamed and threw out his back, knocking over the stall next to the door, rolling on the ground in a mess, howling like a pig. The scream could almost be heard in the street.
Several shop guys rushed up and wanted to fight, but Lin Xiang stopped him.
Lin Xiang walked over and stood beside the man. He sneered: "How is it? Do you know it's amazing?"
The man turned over and looked at Lin Xiang, suddenly smiled slightly, then let out a mouthful of blood, sprinkled into the sky, spilling his chest and everywhere on the ground. Then he fell backwards, lying straight on the ground, without moving.
"I beat people to death-!" The crowd of onlookers suddenly exploded. "The shopkeeper of the boat shop company beat people to death!"
More people gathered around, but they seemed to be quite afraid of the ship merchants and spoke quietly, but just looked away from afar.
Lin Xiang was stunned. He squatted down and looked into the man's breath. He had no breath at all. He was immediately panicked and raised his fist to look. It was not like a punch that could kill a person. This man was strong and not like he could not even get a punch. The other shop staff were also a little panicked, looking at each other and wondering what to do.
At this time, I heard someone shouting on the other side of the street: "Get out of the way! The official officer handles the case, get out of the way!" Then I saw several constables running over, the leader was the headmaster Zhan Zheng.
Captain Zhan was patrolling the street with a few brothers just now. As soon as he reached the intersection of the street, he heard someone screaming with a shrill voice. Then, he saw a mess in front of him from afar. He heard someone shouting, "The shopkeeper of the boat shop is murdered, Captain Zhan's heart skipped a beat, and he would come whatever he is afraid of. There was no way, so he could only take his brother to the boat shop shop with his brother, hoping that nothing big would happen.
When I arrived at the door of the business, I saw a man lying straight on the ground, with blood everywhere on his nose, chest, and on the ground. I couldn't help but scream in my heart.
Chief Zhan asked, "What the hell is going on?"
Before Lin Xiang could react from the shock of beating the person to death, he said, "This man, this man came to the store to buy things and spoke very rudely. I was angry and hit him gently, and he fell down. I really didn't use any force."
The other guys were also a little confused and said, "Yes, Manager Lin just slapped it lightly, and it didn't work much, we all saw it."
Captain Zhan squatted down and looked into his nose. He had no breath at all. Then he said to Manager Lin with a bitter face: "Didn't use force? Why did you vomit all the blood on the ground without force? Who would believe you if you say this?" He turned his head and looked at the man on the ground, and was shocked, "Isn't this Mr. Shi?"
Lin Xiang was stunned, and squatted down and looked at it, asking, "Captain Zhan knows this man?"
"This...this, Manager Lin, you have caused a big disaster now!" Captain Zhan smiled bitterly.
Lin Xiang's heart sank: "What? Who is this person?"
"This... this is the follower of the new magistrate Yang Count Yang, and it seems to be called... Shi Qiujian!"
Lin Xiang also cried out in his heart, why did he get involved with this master? He beat the master's follower to death? This disaster caused a lot of trouble. He rolled his eyes, pulled the captain Zhan aside, and took out a ingot of silver: "Master Zhan, please help..."
Captain Zhan smiled bitterly. The gang involved the murder case of Li Shiyin and Li Hanbao in front of the ship. The magistrate was having a headache. Now he had a murder case, and the one who killed was the follower of the magistrate. How should he explain this? So even if he was greedy for money, he would not dare to ask for the money. He pushed Lin Xiang away: "This involves the murder case, and he is also the magistrate. Zhan has no choice but to report it."
Although Lin Xiang complained in his heart, he was not very worried. The boat gang was not involved in the murder case. He sent the money and smiled and said, "I know this, but I heard that the new magistrate is very powerful, and it is still an earl. So, it is inevitable that there is something to bother Mr. Zhan, this is just a little bit of a matter."
It would be fine if he didn't mention Yang Qiuchi. When it comes to Yang Qiuchi, Captain Zhan was even more cautious. He didn't want to cause trouble in this matter. He quickly pushed his hand away and said, "This, Shopkeeper Lin should not make things difficult for brothers. Let's go with brothers. The other friends present also have to go with us. As a testimony. Shopkeeper Lin is worried. Our magistrate is still easy to talk to."
Seeing this, Lin Xiang killed the magistrate and the locals. It would be impossible not to go to the yamen, so he had to nod.
Several other detectives asked Captain Zhan: "What should I do if this dead Master Shi?"
Captain Zhan shouted angrily: "You are pig's heads? Why don't you find a door panel to carry Shi's body back to the yamen before talking about it!"
"Yes!" Several constables agreed repeatedly, found a door panel from the business, carried Shi Qiujian's body to the door panel, and asked the friends who accompanied him to testify to carry it. They brought Lin Xiang to the prefect's yamen.
Many ordinary people heard that the Shipman Lin from the boat shop in Bazhou City killed someone and arrested him by the yamen to the yamen's consignment, and they all watched the fun. The black crows surrounded the yamen's lobby.
The body stopped in the lobby. Lin Xiang and others knelt in the hall, and Captain Zhan pounded the drums. After a moment, Yang Qiuchi rushed out of the back hall in his official robe and sat behind the official case. He slapped the agglomeration and asked, "What's the matter of beating the drum?"
Captain Zhan bowed and said, "Reported to the master, Lin Xiang, the shopkeeper of the boat company, after arguing with the master's follower Shi Qiujian, Shi Master. He punched Shi Master, causing Shi Master to vomit blood and die..."
"What!" Yang Qiuchi shouted loudly, stood up with his eyes wide open, "Is Shi Qiujian dead?" He hurriedly walked to the corpse, squatted down, and looked into his nose.
"Oh! Who killed him?" He turned around suddenly and glared at Lin Xiang and others, "Let me tell me, who did you kill him?"
Lin Xiang kowtowed: "The villain Lin Xiang is the shopkeeper of the boat shop, I am... I was careless and accidentally injured Mr. Shi... However, he was rude and spitting at me first. I was angry and beat him."
"Is there anyone who can prove it? Besides, will you beat him to death if he says a few bad words? Is there any other kingly law?" Yang Qiuchi shouted, then looked at Lin Xiang's face again, "Have he spitted your saliva? Where did you spit?"
"I vomited my face."
"Where is saliva? Why don't you have any on your face?"
"I...I wiped it off, but you can ask my shop guys, they all heard him speak rudely and saw him spitting my saliva." The guys nodded quickly and said yes.
"They are all the guys in your store, of course they can help you talk to, can you be a big witness, are there any other witnesses?"
"Other?..." Lin Xiang was stunned. At that time, there was no one else in the store except the client in his store. Now, when the magistrate said that he was helping the deceased, of course, he was his follower in the death place, and he would not help him help anyone. Thinking of this, Lin Xiang wanted to beg for mercy and see how it was. He kowtowed and said, "It was a villain who was reckless and injured Mr. Shi by accident. Please forgive me..."
"Forgive me? You killed all my fellow servants! Do you know that killing me to pay for your life? How can you forgive your sins?" Yang Qiuchi shook his sleeves and returned to the case, slapped the agglomeration and shouted: "Come here!"
"On!" Zaoli, who were holding water and fire sticks on both sides agreed in unison.
"Take the murderer Lin Xiang!"
"Yes!" A few soap lions came up, shook the chain and locked Lin Xiang.
