After Sun Shaozong understood the general situation of the case and carefully read the autopsy report several times, he decided to go to the scene for a thorough investigation and interrogation.

Although Wei Ruolan never spoke much, when Sun Shaozong left, he also quietly followed him. It was obvious that he was also quite interested in this case in his heart.

Longsheng Old Store was located at the end of the Alley, west of the Capital, which was originally considered a bustling area, but now...Read Web s Online Free - Fire

If the people continued to be in such a state of panic, it was estimated that even the girls in the brothel would be forced to be out of the industry!

When the group arrived at the prosperous old shop, they saw a constable leading five servants, shouting and munching on the case. There was also a pair of poker cards on the table next to them, with a carefree appearance, almost calling the kiln girl to have a good time.

It was okay with the others, but Wei Ruolan was quite angry when he saw this. After all, this job was assigned to him.

Wei Ruolan didn't think about it and stepped forward and kicked over the table, angrily saying, "Son of a bitch! I've been working tirelessly to investigate the case all day, but you guys are so happy and carefree here.”

Unexpectedly, the constable and the servants knelt on the ground in panic, shouting, "Spare our lives, My Lord.”

Now Wei Ruolan was even more annoyed. As he was about to give these inconspicuous things a lesson, he heard Sun Shaozong exclaiming, "Manager Zhao, have they ever paid for this table of wine and vegetables?”

Shopkeeper Zhao said in fear, "Report back to the Lord; the others and I can’t leave the shop now. These things are bought by the officials themselves and have nothing to do with this small shop.”

Sun Shaozong nodded and then turned his gaze to the constable. He said in a deep voice, "Although you didn't take the opportunity to extort, how dare you drink or gamble for pleasure during your ton duty?”

The constable quickly knocked his head on the ground and trembled, saying, "I lead my brothers to guard here day and night. I am really worried every day, so during the night guard, I secretly bought swine to strengthen my courage. Later, when I saw no one supervising, I... Becmore daring…”

Sun Shaozong first asked Lin Delu to write it down and handle it according to his discretion after returning. Then he instructed them to gather all the witnesses.

Nowadays, in this inn, except for those related to the case, everyone had already scattered away, so in just a moment, everyone was gathered in this hall.

Among them, Shopkeeper Zhao and Taoist Li were the oldest, probably in their early fifties.

Zhang Kai and his wife were around thirty years old, and it seemed that they had swealth.

Zhou Bajin and Wang Ergou were both young people.

Under Sun Shaozong's gaze, these six people all appeared somewhat uneasy, but they had not yet exceeded their normal range.

Sun Shaozong began asking Zhou Bajin one by one again but didn’t ask any new questions. They were all questions that Private Advisor Qi and Wei Ruolan had asked before, and the answers he received were naturally no different from those recorded in the dossier.

Wei Ruolan saw him flipping over and over, only repeating the questions he and Private Advisor Qi had asked. He felt a bit impatient and said in a muffled voice, "Lord Sun, we have all asked these questions before. Do you think they have anything else to hide?”

Sun Shaozong gave a noncommittal smile and suddenly asked Zhou Bajin, "Is the chubby man who kicked out Taoist Li in the end the one with a black mole on the left corner of his mouth?”

Zhou Bajin scratched his head and frowned. "Did you remember wrong? The one with a black mole on the corner of his mouth is clearly a woman.”

“Are you sure?”

Sun Shaozong asked Zhang Kai again, "You said you argued with that horse-faced woman; do you remember what she was dressed up in at that time?”

“I naturally remember.”

Zhang Kai bowed and said, "That woman is wearing a yellow biker with a white lining skirt inside…”

Sun Shaozong suddenly interrupted, "What shoes is she wearing?”

Zhang Kai hesitated slightly and then affirmed, "They are a pair of blue embroidered shoes with hard soles.”

Sun Shaozong nodded with satisfaction and asked Wang Ergou next to him, "Did someone help you when you went in to cook?”

“Yes, yes.”

Wang Ergou hurriedly said, "A woman wearing a jade bracelet in her hand, helpwith the dishes together.”

“Is that bracelet on the left or right hand?”

“Left hand.”

Wang Ergou said without hesitation, "That woman is left-handed, so the bracelet is on her left hand.”

Sun Shaozong then asked Zhang Kai's wife, Taoist Li, and Manager Zhao several questions in turn, and the two of them answered each of them fluently. Only Manager Zhao hesitated and claimed that he didn't remember very well because of his age.

After asking one by one, Sun Shaozong asked Zhou Bajin to lead him to the back to carefully inspect the small courtyard where the six people stayed.

The first thing to check was the crscene, which was the living room in the main room. Even after more than half a month, a foul smell still emanated from the ground, and the bloody scene at that tcould still be imagined.

Next to the east room next door, the bedding was in a mess; although it had been covered in dust, there were still traces of someone lying on it.

Then…

In short, there was not much difference between the traces on the scene and the witness testimony, which could be said to be quite consistent.

After completing this round, Wei Ruolan finally couldn't hold his patience as he saw Sun Shaozong pondering silently. He then chased after him and asked, "Did you notice anything, Lord Sun?”

The words were both sarcastic and gave him a hard time, but there was also a hint of hope. Perhaps even he couldn't figure out whether Sun Shaozong could solve more cases or not.

Sun Shaozong shook his head first, then nodded, and finally said slowly, "I didn't see anything, but it's equivalent to seeing something.”

The clouds and mountains were shrouded in mist!

Wei Ruolan exchanged glances with Private Advisor Qi, who then smiled bitterly and said, "I am really confused at the moment. If you really find anything, please do not hesitate to giveadvice, Lord Sun.”

Sun Shaozong asked in response, "What do you think is the most bizarre and peculiar aspect of this case?”

Private Advisor Qi said without hesitation, "Of course, it's the corpses that have been dead for a long tyet have done many things.”

But then he hesitated again, "But the confessions of Zhou Bajin and others corroborate each other, and there is nothing suspicious.”

“To be honest, I never used to believe in ghosts and gods in this world, but now…”

As he spoke, Private Advisor Qi shook his head in confusion.

Sun Shaozong chuckled and said, "Of course, this is not a ghostly event, but a carefully planned murder case. But it's precisely because this plan was so carefully formulated that it actually revealed its flaws.”
