Great Lawyer

Chapter 371 Difficult and miscellaneous cases ([-])

"Sir, have you got the file?" Everyone was waiting for her at the gate of the palace.

Nervous and curious about what case she got.

Du Jiuyan waved the unopened dossier in his hand, and said with a smile, "Go in and talk."

When everyone went to the flower hall, Du Jiuyan opened the file.

"This..." Everyone was shocked, "Just a piece of paper?"

The file of a general case, from the testimony of witnesses to the confession of the prisoner and the investigation of the crime scene, etc., is not a stack of papers, but seven or eight sheets, but this case has only one sheet.

Du Jiuyan smiled wryly, and said, "It seems that my luck is not good today."

"Who gave you the dossier?" King Gui asked.

"Wu Wenjun." Du Jiuyan said.

King Gui frowned and said, "It's tricky."

Du Jiuyan smiled and said, "Master Wu has put in so much effort for our competition."

"Read it." Du Jiuyan handed the file to Yantong.

Everyone sat down one by one.

Yan Tong cleared his throat and read: "On April 21st of the eighth year of Shuntian, the fisherman and his wife Ma were collecting fishing nets in the Qingyi River in front of their house early in the morning. female corpse."

"After inspection, the woman was about 20 years old, with a thin body and was pregnant for four to five months. From the condition of the body, it was speculated that she died on the night of April [-]. It was preliminarily determined that she was strangled to death with a rope. The body is swollen and there are no traces of rape, but the arm and bones are broken, which should be caused by a conflict with someone before death."

"The deceased didn't have anything on his body except the left and right bracelets. After verification, the bracelets were made of ordinary jade and were from Jingzhong Songji. However, after an investigation, because the bracelets sold dozens of pieces a month, and the buyer's name was not registered, There is no way to find out. Another yamen posted portraits for three months, but no one came to the yamen to claim them."

Yan Tong looked at the crowd, and Dou Rongxing said: "Go on and read."

"No, no more!" Yan Tong swallowed his saliva, and looked at the crowd with difficulty, "The following is the address of the informant, and the weather of the previous three days was sunny and sunny."

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.

"It's over," Duan Ying said: "There is no clue at all, and there is no place to start if I want to investigate."

Everyone's expressions froze, even Du Jiuyan showed a headache.

"Can you change the case?" The cripple asked, "This case is from last year. The woman's body has rotted into bones, and the only possible clue is gone. There is no way to investigate."

Du Jiuyan said: "Wu Wenjun asked Shen Daoru and I to randomly select from the file. If the prince changes now, even if we win in the end, it will be difficult to convince the public. It is very likely that Yanjing will have another round."

"It's not good to keep complaining and entanglement. Since we got this case, it's God's will."

"Since it is God's will, then obey God's will."

She had no evidence at all to prove that Wu Wenjun had tampered with the dossier, and if she changed it, the other party would definitely impose her excuses.

King Gui said: "Do you have a place to attack?"

"No." Du Jiuyan was at a loss, "But the Empress Dowager said that even if I lose, the Holy Majesty may still keep Southwest because of his appreciation for me."

King Gui didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Don't you want your face?"

"Don't talk about face at this time," Du Jiuyan waved his hand: "If you are unlucky, it's not the home game, and it's not shameful to lose."

King Gui gave her a blank look, "Since that's the case, then you can discuss the case."

"Discuss, discuss." Du Jiuyan and Fu Yuanwu said: "Take a pen and paper and record."

Fu Yuanwu took the pen and paper and sat down at the table, waiting for everyone to speak.

For a long time, no one spoke.

"I, I don't have any ideas." Xu Ziyu shook his head and said awkwardly: "My mind is blank."

Qiao Dong nodded, "Me too."

"Who expects you to talk?" Dou Rongxing looked at Du Jiuyan with disgust, "Ninth brother, tell me."

Du Jiuyan coughed, "Well, I'm blank too."

Everyone let out a scream, leaned on the chairs or lay down on the table in discouragement, and had nothing to love.

"Cheer up." Du Jiuyan said: "This case is handled by the Shuntian Mansion, so let's go to the Shuntian Mansion first and ask the guards who handled the case back then. Only after asking them can we make a judgment."

"Also, even if the corpse rots and turns into bones, we have to open the coffin for inspection. The dead horse is treated as a live horse doctor, so let's move first."

She said, calling ten people, "Go get ready, get ready to go."

"Shall I go with you?" asked the lame man.

Du Jiuyan shook his head, "Let's not go for now, let's see how the other party is doing." It was agreed that she would bring ten people, and it would be considered a violation if the cripple went. "Even if we need your help, we have to operate behind closed doors."

The cripple looked at her worriedly, nodded and said, "I'm going to find out about Yanjing's situation."

He said, took the sword and left.

"I'll accompany you to the Yamen," King Gui said.

With him around, the yamen dare not bully students.

"Let's go," Du Jiuyan tidied up the flimsy files, "Let's start now, no matter if there is one or not, sitting here is just thinking about it, and it's just a fictional story."

"Qian Daoan, I will leave my son to you."

Qian Daoan said: "We'll take him out for a walk later, you've been busy with your work these few days, and the three children of Little Luobo are entrusted to us."

"Okay," Du Jiuyan yelled, "Let's go!"

King Gui patted her head, "According to your personality, you shouldn't be so talkative. Wu Wenjun asked you to choose you?"

"People speak lightly," Du Jiuyan said, "In the capital, it's better not to provoke anyone when there's nothing serious."

"Being a man with my tail between my legs is my current style."

King Gui gave her a blank look, "Then I should have gone just now, I missed the scene where you were deflated, it's a pity."

"It's okay, if you miss this one, there will be another one." Du Jiuyan said: "You will always meet."

King Gui frowned, and said, "Who would dare!"

"Domineering," Du Jiuyan gave a thumbs up and said, "Then I'll try to straighten my back thanks to you?"

King Gui nodded, "If someone bullies you, just report my name!"

"Success." Du Jiuyan said.

Everyone gathered and went straight to Shuntian government office.

Qi Daiqing, the prefect of Shuntian, is 45 or [-] years old this year. He has a long beard and looks good, but he is very thin and tall, like a bamboo that grows too aggressively. Every step he takes is a scene of strong winds in the bamboo forest.

When he bent down to salute, Du Jiuyan was very worried that his waist would break.

"My lord, please sit down." Compared with his figure, Qi Daiqing's voice is much fatter, deep and hoarse, and it is a very good voice. Let's try to investigate old cases with men and horses."

"I didn't expect Mr. Du to get an old case backlogged in our government." Qi Daiqing said: "I handled this case last year, but because there were too few clues, we spent a lot of effort and found nothing. Then it happened again. There are no other cases, so this case is shelved."

"One is because there are few clues and our ability is too weak. The other is because there are not enough manpower, no one can keep looking at a case and investigate."

"This time, Mr. Du and all the little gentlemen came to help. Qi is really looking forward to it. Thank you everyone. No matter what needs and requests you have, we will do our best to cooperate."

Du Jiuyan replied, "There are indeed too few clues in the case, and I really need to bother you two things."

Qi Daiqing looked at Du Jiuyan, "Please tell me, Mr. Du."

"The first thing is to ask your lord to invite the officers who investigated the case last year. I want to listen to their dictation."

"The second thing is to assign one or two of these main messengers to us. We are not familiar with the capital, and we need help leading the way."

Qi Daiqing was very straightforward, "It's easy to talk about, please wait for Mr. Du."

He ordered the clerk to invite someone, and after a while four arresters came.They were all middle-aged, and they looked like veterans. Several people saluted King Gui. The leading man was not tall, but he was burly. He lacked a tip in his left ear and had a bushy beard. Quan, it’s the arresting head of the government office. In April last year, the case of Shenjiang’s female corpse was investigated by a lowly official.”

As he said, he took out the only physical evidence bracelet left by the female corpse in this case, "This is the bracelet worn by the female corpse at that time, please take a look at it, my lord and gentlemen."

Du Jiuyan took it and took it out of the bag.

It is a very common jadeite bracelet, and it seems that the price will not be very high.

No wonder the yamen couldn't find out. If this bracelet sold ten pieces a month, the amount would be quite astonishing. After all, there was no registration, and no one knew when the deceased's bracelet was purchased.

"Thank you very much." Du Jiuyan handed the bracelet to Yan Tong to keep it, and she asked, "Please tell us about the scene of going to the scene of the crime."

Shan Dequan thought for a while, and replied: "Last April, when I came to the yamen early in the morning, I happened to meet Zhang Shan's reporter, and I took the three of them to the scene."

"The corpse is near the Tongxian Bridge. There are two Zhuangzi next to it. There are many passenger ships and tourist boats in the river."

"When we arrived, the body had already been pulled up by the fishing net and placed on the shore. The woman was lying naked in the net, with only this jade bracelet on her body."

"We also salvaged the corpse spot that day and searched the vicinity, but found no other belongings of the woman. Other than that, the woman looks good, her belly is not protruding, her fingers are slender and tender, she doesn't look like a woman from a poor family."

"We searched for the jade bracelet. Song Ji didn't register it. There is no way to find it. Finding the identity of the deceased through the bracelet is like finding a needle in a haystack. The adults ordered us to post the portrait of the woman and ask people to claim it. But the weather is getting hotter and the body cannot be parked for too long. After ten days The body was buried, but the portrait is still pasted on the horoscope wall, and no one has come to claim it.”

"Besides these, we have nothing to gain." Shan Dequan said.

Du Jiuyan frowned, and asked: "Shan Butou has any guesses about this case, and he can also say it based on intuition."
