Chapter 648 The trouble of the case

The group lived on the Leprosy Mountain like this. Although the conditions were relatively difficult, fortunately, there was no need to worry anymore. Moreover, Grandma Yuan could also concentrate on preparing the prescriptions. It would not be possible to just use Western medicine. If you want to overcome leprosy in this era, you still have to use the medical methods of this era.

Tang Yang did not stay here, but was responsible for purchasing herbs because herbs were already delivered. Therefore, this move did not attract attention.

Yuwenhao is still investigating the widower case.

It was initially determined that the suspect was the husband of the female deceased. He was a butcher. At the time of the incident, he had no evidence of being absent. He only said that he was sleeping at home, but no one at home could prove it.

And at the butcher's home, he found a blood-stained knife and a blood-covered dress, which proved to be human blood. But the butcher denied that the knife was his, saying that he had never seen it before.

As for the bloody clothes, he admitted that it was his. But the clothes were kept in the cabinet. I don’t know why they were stained with blood.

During the interrogation, he said he knew about his wife's affair with the widower. He was very angry at first, but the widower's two sons earned money. The widower was generous and gave money every time. However, he didn't make much money for slaughtering pigs, and it was very difficult to raise three children. Seeing that the wife got the money back, he turned a blind eye.

The yamen runners also asked the neighbors around them and they all heard about the widower and the female deceased, because they were not afraid of suspicion, and sometimes they would fight in front of outsiders, and their attitudes were intimate and warm.

Some neighbors even said that the widower had teased his wife in front of the butcher, and even verbally insulted the butcher because he had a few bad money.

Not only that, even the butcher lady treats the butcher badly, always pointing at his nose and saying that he has no future and does not make enough money at home. Neighbors have heard of it with their own ears and seen it with their own eyes. The butcher lady calls the butcher a waste of money and is useless.

The butcher can be said to have no dignity at home, but he really can't make much money for killing pigs. In order to make a sigh of relief, after killing pigs in the morning, he would go to the dock to work as a coolie. As for the day of the incident, he didn't go because he sprained his ankle the day before and just slept at home.

The official sent a visit to the dock to investigate and confirmed that the butcher was indeed hit by someone on the day before the incident, fell to the ground, lost the goods all over the floor, and was scolded by the foreman, deducting all the wages for that day.

The workers at the dock said that although the butcher looked big and strong, he was very cowardly and did not dare to resist when bullied. It was difficult to believe that he would kill people.

The Ministry of Justice has been putting pressure on it and has given a deadline to ask Yuwenhao to solve the case.

The main reason is that the case is very tragic. The body of the female deceased was cut with fingers and toes, and the male deceased was even cut. The case has been repeatedly circulated in Beijing. The Ministry of Justice means that this case has caused great panic among the people and the murderer must be caught as soon as possible.

During the meeting in Jingzhao Mansion, the master said: "Although the butcher does not admit the fact of murder, finding someone with bloody swords and clothes from his home, plus the mediocre relationship between the male and female deceased can definitely constitute his motive for murder. Although he is cowardly, the weaker his temperament is often, the more cruel he becomes once it breaks out."

The captain also agreed with the master's words, "Sir, my subordinates had handled a similar case a few years ago. The murderer was extremely cowardly, but after being humiliated repeatedly, he became extremely cruel and killed several people. My subordinates believed that the case was the same. Although the butcher had accepted the affair between his wife and others, how could he accept such a thing? I'm afraid that acceptance is a strategy of tolerance, but in fact, it is waiting for an opportunity to kill."

The newly transferred Gao Fucheng presented all the evidence and expressed his agreement with the two of them, saying to Yuwen Hao: "Sir, now the case is about to be solved, and the butcher still refuses to plead guilty. Can he consider to use torture? He was just stubborn and gave up after he was sentenced to punishment."

Yu Wenhao was overwhelmed, "Using punishment is not a good idea. Have you ever investigated whether the deceased has ever made a grudge with someone?"

The headmaster said: "After investigating, although the male and female deceased are high-profile, they offended many people. However, if there is a deep hatred that is so great that they will kill them with such cruel means, there has never been one."

Seeing that Yu Wenhao was still hesitating, Gao Fucheng said, "Sir, the entire capital is now staring at this case. I can't delay it anymore. Just punish me. In fact, the evidence of the crime is confirmed. You think, this act of cutting off the root actually proves that the murderer vented his hatred for robbing his wife. This move is probably planned for a long time."

Yuwenhao said: "Your analysis makes sense, but..."

He paused, and always felt something was wrong.

"Sir, do you have any other opinions?" asked the master.

Yu Wenhao turned over the sect volume, but in fact, all the evidence at present is pointed at the butcher. On the surface, there is nothing to see.

He looked at everyone and said, "I asked you, if you were the murderers, would you kill so much? The two of them died in the bed. Outsiders knew their relationship at a glance. First of all, they would definitely doubt him, but he did not throw away the blood coat or the murder weapon. Is there such a stupid person? Moreover, you also analyzed that he had planned for a long time."

He took out another confession and placed it in front of everyone, "This confession was recorded by the dock workers, which confirmed that he did not sprain his ankle and could not start work. It was not that he could not kill people if he sprained his ankle, but that he could not kill so smoothly. Both the male and female dead were not weak people, but there were not many signs of fighting at the scene. Although the dead died tragically, they were unable to resist. A person with limited mobility and no martial arts skills, could he do this?"

Everyone didn't expect this to go up. After hearing Yu Wenhao's analysis, they frowned, "In this way, he was framed? Could it be that he was a murderer?"

Yuwenhao shook his head, "No, two lives are expensive, he can't afford this money. If he had this money, he wouldn't have to go to the dock to work as a coolie, nor would he be bullied by his wife all the time."

All the humiliations of the butcher come from his poverty. He has money to buy lives. As for how to live so cowardly?

The master thought for a while, "Will that be a murderer who was angry? After killing someone, he was panicked and brought back all the bloody clothes, the evil weapon... But it doesn't make sense. He was unable to move. If he got entangled and fought, he would definitely alarm his neighbors."

The case seems to be in a deadlock.

In the study room of the Anwang Mansion.

King An returned to the mansion on vacation. After returning to the mansion, he went to see the princess first. The princess was taking a nap. He did not wake up, so he called Aru to the study.

Aru was pushed on the Arhat bed. After some recklessness, King An tidied up his clothes and sat on the Grand Master's chair. His eyes were cold and he did not see the enthusiasm he had just said, "What would you guess Yuwen Hao judge the case?"
