Great Lawyer

Chapter 440 I'm Confident (Part [-])

"I'm going to the yamen, you don't want to run around." Class leader Chang greeted the people in the yard, and said to Chang Liu's older children, "Please don't go out, everyone."

Chang Liu Yingshi couldn't help asking, "Why are you taking the class leader to the yamen?"

"Just ask a few words." Du Jiuyan said, "You are at home."

The older children were a little worried, while the younger ones didn't think so much.

The group returned to the yamen, and as soon as they sat down, the class leader Chang asked anxiously: "Mr. Du, what do you want to ask?"

"Tell me about the affairs of those older children." Du Jiuyan said.

Du Jiuyan, who was fifteen or sixteen years old in the Hangjia class, was sure that it was Chang Li and Ling Rong, and there was another Chang Hua who was an old singer. He didn't speak much and stood against the wall all the time, looking at everyone.

But Chang Li's eyesight is not good, so he can't complete such a delicate killing technique, only Chang Hua and Ling Rong can do it.

"Ling Rong doesn't count, just Chang Li, Chang Liu, and Chang Hua." The class leader Chang said: "Chang Li's eyes are not good, and her voice is not suitable, so she stays at home and does odd jobs. Chang Liu is a little shorter , but he is lively, Wu Sheng can't sing, but his voice has changed a lot, and now I am leading him to sing ugly deeds."

"Chang Hua has good qualifications, and she is born to be a martial arts student." Leader Chang introduced these three people to them without asking any further questions.

Du Jiuyan was surprised, "Chang Liu is sixteen?"

"Yeah." Teacher Chang said: "He is old but not tall. It would be nice if he was taller."

He said with a sigh, "So no one is perfect, if you want to stand on stage, you really have to rely on God to reward you with food."

King Gui said: "Tell me about the origins and personalities of a few people."

"You know, most of the children in the theater troupe were picked up by me, or were given to me to keep by others. They all follow my surname, and I watched them grow up." The head teacher Chang said: "If you want to talk about character, Chang Liu has a bright mouth."

"How old was he when he came?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Leader Chang nodded, "When he came to me for more than ten months, his mother was rented by his father several times, and she wanted to die. Before she died, she took the child from home to beg for food. On the way, I gave the child to me. Yes. After I took it, she hanged herself on a tree that night."

Leader Chang said with a sigh, "Sometimes I often think, if I refused to take him in at that time, his mother wouldn't have died."

"It's just that I only thought of their mother and child being pitiful at that time, but I didn't know how a mother would feel if she didn't even want a child." Chang Ban said: "It's all my fault, doing bad things with good intentions."

Du Jiuyan frowned, just as he was speaking, the lame man said: "She wants to die, she will die if you take her child or not. It has nothing to do with you."

"What you did is still a good thing."

Leader Chang clasped his hands, and said, "Thank you lame master for your comfort, the matter is already like this, so it's meaningless to talk about it." After a pause, he continued: "When Chang Hua came to my place, he couldn't walk, like a kitten. Sitting in a basket and crying."

"I heard that I brought him back in the middle of the night and cooked porridge for him. He grabbed a spoon and ate a bowl before going to sleep. This child has been very good since he was a child." Mr. Chang said.

"Has there been any interesting or special events that you will remember deeply?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Leader Chang thought for a while and replied, "Nothing special, right? Hungry, cold and poor, we all carried it together, and we didn't say anyone in particular was wronged."

Leader Chang asked: "My lord, Mr. Du, you have asked so many questions, do you have any clues? Are you suspicious of someone?"

"Are you suspicious of these three children?" Leader Chang was very nervous. "These three are good children. I think someone from outside must have come in and killed Ba Niang. You should go outside to investigate, really."

Du Jiuyan said: "We will investigate, but we have to do it step by step, don't worry."

"That's good, that's good." Teacher Chang said: "Then I'll go back first?"

Du Jiuyan asked: "Don't go back today, just live in the yamen." She looked at Shan Dequan, "Can the yamen be settled?"

Shan De didn't understand why he wanted to stay with Chang Banzhu, but he agreed without thinking, "Yes, there is a spare room in the back office, just burn a kang and get a quilt."

"Mr. Du, why do you want me to stay here? If I don't go back, the children will be afraid." Chang Bangzhu said.

Du Jiuyan said: "You rest here, I will treat the big guys to dinner tonight, and they must be full."

"How can I make you spend money, and..." Mr. Chang said halfway, Du Jiuyan waved his hand and said: "It won't exceed three nights, you just live here and don't go anywhere. The children are very independent and can Take care of each other, they will be fine without you."

Leader Chang hesitated, but he didn't dare to resist, so he nodded, "Then can you go back and explain to them?"

"I will go." Du Jiuyan said: "Don't worry, go and rest."

Shan Dequan led Chang Banzhu to go to Hou Ya to rest.

"Do you want to keep an eye on him at night?" King Gui asked.

"Well. From the current point of view, there are actually a lot of clues in this case, but there are also many contradictions. Leave the boss Chang here to wait for that person to show his feet." Du Jiuyan said.

Shan Dequan pushed the door in and asked curiously, "Mr. Du, why did you do this?"

"Do you still remember the taboo of umbrellas and boxes? Although we all know it, when we think about it, we ignore this clue." Du Jiuyan said: "So, if we can't get through if we keep going forward, then we will take a step back and try again." Go see."

Shan Dequan understood, and asked in a low voice: "Then shall we go to watch tonight?"

Du Jiuyan nodded, "In the middle of the night, let's keep an eye on him."

"Let's go together." King Gui and Du Jiuyan said, "I'll accompany you in the first half of the night."

Du Jiuyan cupped his hands, "Thank you, my lord!" As he said that, he looked at the lame man and Shan Dequan, "The two of you are going to bed now, and they will replace us after midnight."

Of course Shan Dequan had no problem, he looked at the lame man.

"Maybe it won't be until the middle of the night," the lame man said calmly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, "Let's all come together. After all, there are two yards, and two pairs of eyes can't see."

Shan De was stunned, but he obviously had no right to object.

"The rest of the night is yours too." King Gui looked at the lame man with contempt.

Du Jiuyan had nothing to say, she and Shan Dequan were doing their own business, King Gui and the cripple were helping, so this matter can be decided as they decide.

"Eat!" Du Jiuyan touched the money bag and came out, and gave Shan Dequan five taels of silver, "Order a servant to buy vegetables, meat buns and steamed buns, and send them to the Hangjiaban."

Five taels of silver can sell a lot of steamed buns and steamed buns. Even if there are many of them, they can probably eat for two days.

"Success." Shan Dequan took the money and ordered his subordinates to do things.

The four of them ate in the yamen, and after dark, the four of them walked to the Hang's class on the snow.

Lying on the roof of the first room, you can see everything in the yard, and you can also see the people coming and going in the main room.

Some children were crying, some were comforting, and some squatted at the door while eating meat buns and wiping tears.

The atmosphere was very oppressive, and a child guessed immaturely: "Did the Yamen not find the murderer, so they took the class leader back to deal with it?"

As soon as he said that, the atmosphere became even more depressing, and the half-grown child who couldn't understand it burst into tears.

One cried, and the rest of the series began to cry.

"Don't talk nonsense, how could the yamen do such a thing, it's not a small place, this is the capital city." It should be an old man who was beating the gong.

"Eat quickly, go to bed after eating, the class leader will be back tomorrow."

Everyone cried and ate. After eating, they wrapped the leftovers in a cloth bag and put them on the table and covered them with a cover for tomorrow.

"The hot water is ready, take the brothers to sleep."

The children went to wash up quietly, and the lights in all the rooms were turned off after a while.

The yard fell silent.

At the time of the garrison, the sound of a watch's stick sounded.

It was so dark that there was no moon, and the bitter wind was blowing from all directions. Du Jiuyan was very cold and rubbed his hands.

Suddenly, a hand reached out and grabbed her right hand to warm it up. She saw that King Gui was about to speak when someone grabbed her left hand.

Without support, her face was resting on the tiles.

The right hand was rubbed vigorously by King Gui, and the left hand was warmed by the lame man directly stuffing it into his sleeve.

"You two," Du Jiuyan said while lying on the tiles, suppressing his voice, "Thank you for your kindness. I'm not very cold."

She pulled her hand out violently.

King Gui and the lame man saw each other's movements, their eyes intertwined, as if sparks collided in the dark night, crackling in Du Jiuyan's ears.

"Hush!" Du Jiuyan trembled, "Persist for a while, and we'll go back in a little while."

She was so cold that she couldn't bear it anymore, and she desperately wanted to go back to sleep.

"Today's first night, there will definitely be no harvest." Du Jiuyan comforted everyone.

Shan De didn't know about the three of them at all, so he leaned his head over and said in a low voice, "Mr. Du, if there is any harvest, what do you think it will be?"

"Celebrate!" Du Jiuyan said.

Dan Dequan understood, nodded and continued to lie on the roof and stare at the two yards.

"Do you think the murderer will come out in a hurry to celebrate? How?" asked the lame man.

"I'm not sure. This murderer is very contradictory. I can't guess how he will celebrate." Du Jiuyan encountered such a case for the first time. She has rich experience in handling criminal cases. There are countless dossiers.

But this time it was weird.

And the strangest thing is that the biggest child in this yard is only a half-grown child, 16 years old this year.

She has also chatted with everyone, no matter which child they are, they are still children, including Ling Rong... they are not mature enough in mind, and they are not stable enough in speaking and acting.

However, the method used in this case is not only mature but also sophisticated.

This is so contradictory.
