Chapter 61 Meeting Qu Heng

"A cat as big as a cow? How can there be such a big cat?" Gu Chudong said in shock.

Zhuo Qingfeng smiled slightly and said, "So, they said it was a cat demon. According to the thirteen suspects, it was because the head escort Lin Zhenyue ignored the advice and killed some cats that blocked the way during the escort, which led to the cat demon's revenge.

According to their description, they were escorting the caravan to the post station to rest that night. They heard some unusual movement and went out to see that the yard was densely packed with cats. Finally, one appeared... a huge white cat that spoke in human language. It first crippled Lin Zhenyue's two hands with one claw, and then killed Lin Zhenyue with the second claw.

Then, the big white cat led the cats to attack and carried out a massacre. When it was leaving, the big white cat turned around and roared, and all the survivors were stunned.

After waking up, they discovered they had already reached a cave on the border of Fang County. Before they could figure out what was going on, the Six Gates had tracked them down and arrested them all."

Gu Mo quickly asked, "Didn't you say there were two witnesses? What did they say?"

Zhuo Qingfeng said, "According to the two post station servants, they were both resting when they suddenly heard the sounds of fighting in the yard. They quickly got up and opened the window upstairs, only to see the escorts from the Changfeng Escort Agency slaughtering each other. They were so scared that they quickly hid. After it was quiet outside for a long time, they mustered up the courage to run out of the cellar. They saw corpses everywhere outside, so they ran into the city at night to report to the authorities. However, the post station was quite far from the city, so by the time they arrived, it was already daybreak."

Gu Mo asked, "When will Qu Heng and the others be arrested?"

"We reported the case after daybreak and tracked it down just before dark," said Zhuo Qingfeng.

Gu Mo frowned and asked, "Are there no other doubts?"

Zhuo Qingfeng thought for a moment and said, "There's basically no doubt. Judging from all the evidence, it's just a group of people stealing from the company and having an internal conflict. Moreover, as for Qu Heng and the others' confessions, they all seem like fabricated lies.

At the scene, there were indeed signs of cats coming and going, but that was Fang County, where every household kept cats and there were stray cats everywhere. The post station itself had more than a dozen cats, and stray cats often appeared there.

In addition, Lin Zhenyue's death was completely inconsistent with the confessions of the thirteen people. They said that Lin Zhenyue was crippled in both hands by the cat demon's claw and was killed by the second claw, but in fact, Lin Zhenyue was killed by a sword in the throat and his hands were cut off by a knife. Secondly, according to their description, they were besieged by many cats at the time, but none of the dead at the scene had signs of being scratched by cats. They all died from various weapons.

If I must point out a point of doubt, it's that Qu Heng and the other thirteen are not children, they are all veterans. Why would they make up such a flawed lie? Any excuse they make up would be much better than this one."

Gu Mo asked: "Then, is it possible that they are not lying?"

Zhuo Qingfeng chuckled and said, "Do you really think there are such things as monsters in the world?"

Gu Mo was silent for a moment.
He really didn't know what to say.
After all, he first traveled through time, and twenty years later he solved the mystery in the womb, awakened his innate wisdom, and also awakened the system. It has already come to this, and it is really too difficult for him to ask him to continue to be an unswerving materialist fighter.

Therefore, he couldn't agree with Zhuo Qingfeng's question.

Zhuo Qingfeng was a little surprised and asked, "Master Gu, you don't really believe it, do you?"

Gu Mo didn't deny or confirm it, but changed the subject and asked, "Captain Zhuo, can I meet Qu Heng?"

Zhuo Qingfeng hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it for you. Um, Gu Mo, let me be honest with you. The reason we haven't announced the conviction yet is because we haven't found the Blood-Tear Stone Clam yet. All the evidence is sufficient to prove that Qu Heng and others committed embezzlement. If you want to overturn their conviction, it will be very difficult."

Gu Mo nodded and said, "I understand, but... Captain Zhuo, even if the evidence is conclusive, it may be false, right? You know it best." Zhuo Qingfeng was slightly stunned. He naturally understood that what Gu Mo said was that he had been accused of conclusive and ironclad evidence some time ago.

Zhuo Qingfeng pondered for a moment and said, "Do you trust Qu Heng so much?"

"Just like I believed in you at the beginning." Gu Mo said.

Zhuo Qingfeng took a deep breath and said, "Let's go and meet Qu Heng. If after the meeting, you still insist that Qu Heng and others were wronged, I can find a way to temporarily suppress this case for a while, and I will accompany you to investigate."

"Thank you."

……

Soon, under the leadership of Zhuo Qingfeng, Gu Mo and Gu Chudong arrived at Liushenmen Prison.

"Amo, early winter..."

In prison, Qu Heng, who was covered with scars, was surprised to see Gu Mo and Gu Chudong. He shouted and wanted to stand up, but the pain from the wounds on his body made him unable to stand up.

"Uncle Qu, who beat you like this?" Gu Chudong's eyes were red.

Zhuo Qingfeng on the side quickly explained, "It wasn't me. He was already like this when he was transferred back. It was the Six Gates of Qingyang County who beat him. Well, Gu Mo, Miss Chu Dong, you also have to understand. Based on the current evidence in this case, Qu Heng and others have been convicted of embezzlement. They won't reveal the whereabouts of the Blood-Tear Stone Clam. The Six Gates of Qingyang County will definitely use some means."

Qu Heng was lying on the grass and said, "Amo, Chudong, my injury has nothing to do with Captain Zhuo. It was Captain Zhuo who arranged for a doctor to treat us."

Gu Chudong was about to say something, but was stopped by Gu Mo with a wave of his hand.

Gu Mo stood at the prison gate with his eyes dull. He said in a very calm tone, "Uncle Qu, tell me everything about your escort and the robbery that day. Tell me everything you know."

"it is good."

Qu Heng immediately began to narrate,
However, after he finished speaking, Gu Mo didn't hear anything special about it. It was exactly the same as what Zhuo Qingfeng said.

"Amo, Chudong," Qu Heng sighed and said, "My case cannot be overturned. I just want to ask you for one favor. Amo, I know you are very capable and have great martial arts skills. After I die, I hope you can take care of your aunt and Xiaoxiao for the sake of our past friendship."

Gu Mo nodded slightly and said, "Uncle Qu, don't worry. With me here, Auntie and Xiaoxiao won't be bullied. However, I'd better think of a way to overturn the case for you first!"

Zhuo Qingfeng also said, "Gu Mo, since you believe it so much, I will accompany you to give it a try."
