Toda-san said: "The children who found the corpse first, can I ask them again?"

The magistrate said: "Of course, as long as you want to question anyone, you can do it." This time, the magistrate did not say that this is not necessary and that is not as it did last time when investigating the murder of an official.Because Toda-san said last time that when he investigates the case, he will re-investigate it as needed.But in this case now, solving the case is the kingly way, as long as the case can be solved, nothing will be a problem. "

The head of the village immediately sent someone to hurry and call all the children who found the body that day.

Among these children, the oldest is only eight or nine years old, although the youngest is only four or five years old.Toda-san left the oldest child behind and told the others to leave first and come back later.

Toda-san said to the child, "Can you tell me how you saw the corpse?"

The child nodded and said: "That day, we went to fish in the ditch in front of us. The water was too cold and we didn't touch it. We came back. As soon as we got here, I saw a man lying there with his head on his head. It's full of blood, just lying on the ground like this, the snow around the head is red, so scary. We all stood up and didn't dare to go over to look, but I came over in the end. After I looked, I found that it was Brother Jiji, the head It was all rotten, so we went around the field ridge and ran back from there, shouting "Brother Jiji is dead! "Running all the way to the gate of Jiji's house, after talking, the people from their family followed to see, and then carried him home. They also asked us to call the head of the village. That's it."

Toda-san said, "When did you find the body?"

"It's almost lunch time."

The magistrate said: "It's around noon. This is what Jiji's family said. They open lunch at noon every day. It's like this every day. That day, Master Jiji went out, and he didn't come back when it was time for lunch. He was about to ask someone to go Looking for it, I just heard these children come and say that they saw the young master of Jiji’s family die on the road. It only takes a cup of tea to run from here to Jiji’s house. So it was about that time.”

Toda-san asked the child again, "Did you touch the dead body at that time?"

"No, who dares to touch it, it's so scary, its skull is smashed!"

"Who touched the corpse first?"

"It should be the servants of Jiji's family. We called them, and they hugged Brother Jiji and cried. Then they carried the body back."

Toda-san said: "When you found the body, did you see anyone else beside you?"

"Yes, some brothers, sisters, aunts and fathers are all working in the fields! After hearing my call, they all came to have a look, and then asked me to call someone."

"Oh? Where were they?"

The child pointed to a few places, all of which were hundreds of steps away, some far and some near.

hts said to Li Chang: "Can you call these people?"

The chief hurriedly asked someone to call.Soon, these people all came.Before that, Toda-san asked those children again, and the answer was similar to what the older child said before.

Toda-san asked the children to go to where they were at that time, and looked at them. Some seats were different from what the child said just now. He asked the children to ask, and he said that he didn't pay attention at that time, but it was just a rough location.

Toda-san called the nearest child over and asked, "At that time, did you see the young master of Jiji's family passing by?"

The child shook his head: "At that time, I was digging in the field, and I didn't pay attention to when he passed by. Later, I heard the cry, so I ran over to see what happened."

"Did you see anyone else passing by?"

"I did not see it."

Toda-san looked into his eyes and said, "Did you not come here at noon that day?"

The child was taken aback, and said, "No!"

"Really do not have?"

"Of course not!" The child replied with certainty, looking at Toda-san without averting his eyes.

Toda-san said: "Remember carefully, did you really not come here at that time?"

The child said: "I really haven't been here, I have been digging the ground, they can testify. Please look into it clearly."

"I will check." Toda-san said.

He called the man nicknamed Harry Oil again and questioned him, and it really confirmed the child's statement that they had been in the field and were still talking to each other.

Toda-san interrogated these people separately. As a result, they were in the field all morning, and they were able to testify to each other without finding any clues.

Toda-san said to the magistrate: "The deceased died from multiple blows to the back of the head. I checked the post-mortem and found that the deceased had no resistance injuries, indicating that the murderer was a surprise attack, not that the two sides fought each other for some reason. At the same time, they who were nearby I didn't hear any abnormal noises. I didn't see anyone passing by. Moreover, neither the jade pendant nor the money bag at the waist of the deceased was stolen, so it can be ruled out that murder for money was a premeditated murder. Therefore, the detection direction It should be the enemy of the dead!"

"That's right!" The prefect exclaimed, "The analysis makes sense."

Toda-san said: "If you want to investigate his enemy, you can only go to Jiji's house."

When they arrived at Jiji's house, the eldest, third child and several grandchildren of Jiji's family came to greet them at the door.The second son of Jiji's family was an official in the capital and did not come back.

The house of Jiji’s family is very luxurious. There are two plaques hanging on the door lintel.

Welcoming the guest and host to sit in the living room, the boss of the Jiji family clasped his hands and said: "My father is old, sad that his grandson was killed, and he can't afford to be ill. So I can't come out to greet you adults in person, please forgive me."

The magistrate said: "This time, Toda Yamatoji from Kyoto is invited to come here specially for this case. Toda Yamato's ability to solve cases is very good."

The eldest of Jiji's family said indifferently: "We don't care whether the case is solved well or not. What I care about is who killed my son."

Toda-san said: "I also really want to know the answer. In order to know the answer, I have to conduct an investigation in the Zunfu. I hope you will cooperate."

"Yes!" The boss of Jiji's family just said simply.

Toda-san said: "I need to ask one by one. Is that okay?"

"Okay!" said the boss of Jiji's house.

"Then I'll ask you first."

The boss of Jiji's family nodded and told everyone to go out and wait.

Toda-san asked: "May I ask when did the young master go out? What did you do when you went out?"

Old Daoist: "I only found out about this later, when I was talking with the old man in the house. Later, I heard from the concierge that my son could go out around noon. He only said what he was going out for, but he didn't say anything. The concierge didn't ask either."

"Does the young master have no followers?"

"Yes, but he didn't let his followers follow him when he went out that day, he went out alone."

"why?"

"I can't explain this all the time. For this reason, we hung up the servant for several days and forced him to ask why he didn't follow. The servant only said that the young master refused to follow, but he didn't say the reason, nor did he say where he went."

Toda-san thought for a moment, then asked, "When will he go out?"

"It's almost lunch time—our house is ready for dinner at noon."

"How long is it until noon?"

"Well..., there should be time for a meal. At that time, the concierge also said, 'lunch is about to come, young master, are you still going out?' The young master ignored him and left."

Toda-san asked: "Then when did you get the news that the young master was killed?"

"After the meal time, it will take about one meal."

"So, the young master should have been killed during the two meals around noon!"

"This should be."

"Does the young master have any enemies? - I hope to tell the truth! Only by telling the truth can we analyze the case accurately and find the right direction for the investigation."

"Okay!" The boss thought for a while, and said, "How should I put it, a family like ours has land and land, collects rent and pays debts every year, some people will be jealous of us, and there is no such thing as a big hatred. "

"No matter what the reason is. As long as there is a grudge, or someone who may kill your son, talk about it."

"Okay!" The eldest of Jiji's family thought about it.Said: "There are three people who may kill my son, one named Jijiyou, one named Jijicai, and one named Jijigao."

"What's wrong with your son?"

"That Jijigui angered my son because he insulted our elder. He said that he was falsely merciful. My son took his servants and beat him up. He knocked out a few teeth. He hated my son very much. Once She threatened to kill my son several times. That Jijicai owed my family a lot of money, so she wanted to use his sister to seduce my son to pay off the debt. My son naturally doesn't like this kind of slut. She repeatedly seduced my son , my son was also honest, so he fell for it and slept with him. He rushed in to catch the rape, and his sister said that my son raped her, crying and clamoring to hang herself. Jiji then said how much it would cost This is a blackmail and extortion! My son was naturally angry and beat him up too."

Toda-san said: "Is there anything I can say to reason calmly. How can I hit someone casually?"

The boss hurriedly said: "It is said to be a fight, but in fact it is just a few pushes and shoves. It's nothing. It's nothing in the countryside."

Hu Tianshan said: "I heard that your family has three grades, and that is also a scholarly family. It is always wrong for a gentleman to use his mouth but not his hands."

The boss knew he was wrong, so he smiled sarcastically, and said, "I also reprimanded him severely for this. It's just, alas! I won't have the chance to reprimand him in the future!"

Toda-san said: "You talk about the third one."

"The third Ji Jifu is a gambler who gambles excessively. He gambles with people all day long, and if he loses, he will repay his debts. He gambled with my son. He sold the land to pay off the debt, but he quit. My younger brother couldn't see it, so he stood up for his nephew and came to the door to reason with him. Not only did he not listen, he beat my younger brother first. My younger brother was very angry and turned him away to the yamen , beat him up. This kind of thing was originally a matter of the yamen, and he insisted on blaming us. He went around and said that our family bullied others. Are you angry? So he was beaten again. This But he provoked us. He has already been sent to the official, and he is still so unreasonable. For this kind of..."

"I see!" Toda-san interrupted him, "Apart from these three people, is there anyone else who has grudges against the young master or your Su family?"

"It's mainly these three. Everything else is trivial. If there is hatred, it's mainly them!"

"Since you suspected that they did it, didn't you ask?"

"Of course we have done an inquiry. We are literati and from a scholarly family. We don't beat people casually. This is what our old man said. Therefore, we can only turn the three of them to the yamen for investigation."

Toda-san turned to look at the prefect.

The magistrate said: "There is such a thing. However, these three people are not criminals."

"why?"
