Suddenly something fell down in the clouds, startling everyone.
The old man looked blankly and realized that it was his own child.
After looking at the wooden box and then at the baby lying on the ground covered in blood, the old man quickly ran over and helped the baby up.
After a while, he burst into tears.
"My baby, what's wrong with you? Who harmed you!"
People in the audience, you look at me, I look at you, including Lin Yi, including Lin Yi, didn't know if what was happening on stage was a trick or if it was real.
After a while, until the old man’s hysterical crying did not subside at all, everyone realized that he was not acting!
Several nurses and servants from the Su family quickly ran to the stage to check the situation.
After a while, someone stood up, shook his head, and said to Su Can: "Master, the child is gone."
Hearing that the person was gone, the magistrate hurriedly said: "Ding... .Ding Song, hurry up, call...the people from the patrol department!"
"Yes, sir!"
Ding Song stood up quickly and glanced at the stage. , went in a hurry.
Lin Yi also had an unconcealable surprise on his face.
No one thought that a murder would occur on the happy day of Mr. Su’s birthday!
At this time, Su Can was very calm and said to the housekeeper Fang Jing beside him: "Let the old man and the young lady go back to the room to rest first. Others are not allowed to leave the lobby until the people from the Yamen arrive to cooperate with the investigation."
......
The frightened Mr. Su was helped back to his room to rest. Su Xiuer said that she wanted to stay to see what happened, and everyone else stayed. Stand by in the hall.
Soon, Chief Ding and the people from the patrol department arrived.
"Qin Chong pays homage to your Excellency."
A thin man with fierce eyes and a scar on his left cheek reported to the magistrate.
"Captain Qin, there was a murder on the stage just now. Take your people to investigate!"
"Yes."
Captain Qin With a wave of his hand, several detectives immediately sealed off the stage.
These people had already heard Ding Song tell the general story on the road.
Lin Yi saw that Detective Cao Dahua Cao, whom he met in the teahouse that day, was also among them.
Qin Chong stepped forward and saw the old man still holding the baby tightly and crying, and signaled to his men to separate the two.
A group of detectives finally separated the old man and the baby.
Qin Chong took the child and laid it gently on the ground. He first checked his nose with his hands to confirm that he was not breathing.
After checking up and down, no bleeding injuries were found.
When he opened the clothes on his chest, a palm-sized mark appeared on the child's chest.
The skin at the mark has turned black, as if it was burnt.
The mark itself is very special, it is in the shape of a flame.
The old man who was separated had tears in his eyes and kept looking here. When he saw the mark of the flames, he immediately cried: "God damn it, which of my colleagues is so cruel! If we don't understand the rules, the lesson from our predecessors is, why bother killing my baby?"
Qin Chong put the baby down and immediately came to the old man and asked, "Do you know this mark? What's going on?"
The old man nodded, sighed deeply, and said with a choked voice: "There are thousands of fires in the sky, and thousands of colorful doors in the earth. This is the mark of our colorful door. "Sky Fire."
"You mean this was done by a colleague?"
The old man's eyes were red and swollen, and he murmured: "It seems that it must be my father and son." This Shoulin City has been around for a long time, which Caimen master has been offended..."
"No matter what the rules of your Caimen are, killing people in public violates the laws of our Yu Dynasty, and you must go back to the Yamen with us. Open the hall for trial."
Qin Chong stood up and looked around with eagle eyes. Most of the guests in the hall were also distinguished people, but almost no one dared to look at Qin Chong.
This group of detectives questioned all the guests sitting in the first three rows of seats near the stage, but to no avail.
After working here for a while, the magistrate already yawned.
"Mr. Su has gone back to rest. Let's go back first and let Capt. Qin take the relevant people back for questioning. We will withdraw now."
The county magistrate's butt As soon as he moved, Ding Song immediately stepped forward to support him and shouted to the stage: "Your Excellency is tired. Go back home now. Mr. Qin will arrest you. Your Excellency asked you to take the relevant people back for questioning. Everyone else should disperse."
As soon as they heard this, some of the impatient guests immediately stood up and left, muttering: "It's so unlucky for me to come to the birthday banquet and catch up with this nonsense."
"That's right. You have to take a good bath when you get back to get rid of bad luck."
"Stop talking, let's leave quickly, don't delay and get caught by the patrol officer." Go and ask."
Su Can immediately ordered his servants to open the door and guide the guests. He stood at the door and kept saying to everyone: "I'm sorry for my neglect today."
When Lin Yi walked to the door, Su Can said: "Brother Lin, something like this happened at home today, which made you laugh. You are my daughter's friend. You will come and go more often in the future. Today I will I won’t keep you, let’s meet again someday.”
Su Xiuer didn’t say anything, just looked at Lin Yi, pursed her lips and nodded slightly.
Lin Yi cupped his hands and spoke politely to Su Can, saying, "Uncle Su, please give me your orders wherever Lin Yi is needed in the future."
In half a bowl of tea, all the guests in the hall had left.
Only the bodies of Su Can, Su family servants, patrol officers, old men and children were left.
Captain Qin said to Su Can: "Master Su, this table is the scene of the murder. Please keep this table for a few days. We will arrest the murderer as soon as possible."
"Easy to say. ”
Captain Qin waved, and the detectives immediately left the scene and took the old man back to the Yamen for questioning.
The old man picked up the child’s body and followed him crying.
......
When the old man followed the detectives back to the patrol department, Qin Chong asked questions, but he didn't find any useful clues. .
The old man said: "Our hometown has a rule that fallen leaves return to their roots. Please allow me to place my son's coffin as soon as possible so that I can take him back to his hometown and bury him in peace." "
"If you leave, what will happen to your son's case? "
"Hey, everyone in the world knows that the water in Caimen is too deep. Since he can kill my son silently, his moral conduct must be higher than mine. I just want to be able to take him with him. My son's coffin left safely. ”
After hearing what the old man said, and considering that there were no clues in this case, Qin Chong thought that instead of being hung up on this case, it would be better to be a favor, close the case as soon as possible, and get it over with.
So Qin Chong agreed to the old man's request and contacted a coffin shop for him.
After the old man left, Qin Chong called Cao Dahua over.
"Captain Cao." , this matter today is a big case, don't say that I, Qin Chong, didn't give you a chance, I will leave this case to you. If it is handled well, the county magistrate will naturally get a reward. If it is not handled well, no one will be held responsible. , you are already like this anyway. "
"Yes. ”
Cao Dahua took over the case.
He has done a lot of taking the blame and is used to it.
As long as it is an unsolved case or Most of the cases that were worthless would be passed on to him in the end.
At first, he was holding back his energy and wanted to prove himself by finding out the truth of these cases, but his level of helplessness was really limited, but in the end, it all turned out to be the case. An old case...
......
After Lin Yi returned to the shop, he lay down on the bed and placed the embroidered handkerchief on the bedside. < /p>
I thought about the fairy rope for a while, and the case of the old man and his son, and fell asleep before I knew it.
In the early morning, there was a "bang bang bang" in front of the house. The sound of banging on the door was urgent and loud.
Lin Yi hurriedly sat up and walked to the door when he heard someone outside the door shouting: "Warlock Lin, help! ”
