Great Lawyer

Chapter 496 New doubts ([-])

"Let me go for a while." The lame man said, "Anyway, I'm fine, so the trip will be quick."

Du Jiuyan also wanted to go out for a walk, she didn't want to stay in the capital.

Thinking of Jing Yachong, she was very depressed.

"Let him go, you will be followed wherever you go now, it's inconvenient." King Gui said.

Du Jiuyan looked at them with distaste, and Cai Zhuoru also agreed, "I think what the lord and the cripple brother said makes sense. The cripple brother came back after riding a horse for two days."

Qian Daoan and the others also nodded, and Huazi smiled and said: "Ninth brother, your horsemanship is not as good as lame brother, he runs fast."

Du Jiuyan rubbed and said: "You are really warm and thoughtful, how could I have the guts to go and live up to your enthusiastic concern."

Several men nodded together.

Du Jiuyan became even more depressed, and waved his hands and said, "Okay, okay, whatever you guys say, I'll go back and rest, and lie down to take care of my body."

She said and went back to sleep.

Little Luobo came back to comfort her, "Father, the cripple thinks it will be very cold for you to ride a horse in this weather. He is kind."

"I know." Du Jiuyan said, "I haven't insisted on it."

Little Luobo nodded, "Besides, you also said that the bad guy might challenge you again. You have to keep an eye on it in the capital to be on guard."

"Understood." Du Jiuyan was lying on the bedside reading a book, "Go and play, I want to be quiet."

Little Carrot let out an oh, opened the door and went out.

Du Jiuyan lay on the pillow and sighed, "In life, you either get slapped in the face, or you get slapped in the face of others!"

She rubbed her face, feeling pain.

Early the next morning, the cripple went to Baoding, and he walked so fast that Du Jiuyan felt that he had only slept two nights before going back to the cage. The next afternoon, the cripple returned, his hair was frozen into icicles.

After taking a hot bath and changing clothes, Du Jiuyan was already waiting for him in his yard, "Has he been sent to another hospital?"

"There is a place outside Baoding Prefecture where a temple is being built, but there is no such person as Fatty said." The cripple drank a cup of tea, "Not only is there no him, but the people that Fatty said were confessed together are not there. "

"I thought it was weird, so I asked the foreman in charge. They never came to the capital to recruit workers from the beginning to the end."

"There are too many people who can be used in Baoding. There is no need to walk a hundred miles to the capital to find someone."

Du Jiuyan was dumbfounded, "You mean, the people who came to the city wall to recruit workers at that time told lies?"

"It's not far from ten." The lame man said, "It's best to ask Mr. Qi to find out where those so-called Baoding recruited people have gone."

Du Jiuyan said: "There are tens or hundreds of people, no matter where they go, there will be no small movements."

"What's more, they are penniless and have nothing but a life." Du Jiuyan said: "Could the other party want to lie to them?"

Digging a black kiln?mine?

"There are difficulties." The lame man said, "There are all kinds of people in this world. As long as you can think of weird things, maybe they really exist."

Du Jiuyan thought it made sense.

The next morning, they found Qi Daiqing together, told Qi Daiqing about the recruitment of workers for the temple in Baoding, and asked him to help find out where these people went.

"Could it be that the matter was not negotiated, and the recruiters didn't take them to Baoding, but instead went to work elsewhere?" Qi Daiqing asked.

"No matter where you go, there must be an explanation. Among them, there are relatives waiting in the other courtyard. Check it out, and you, my lord, can tell you something." Du Jiuyan said.

Qi Daiqing didn't object, and immediately ordered people to do things.

Du Jiuyan went to the cell to chat with Chen Ying and Dou An.Chen Ying was very sluggish, as if his energy and spirit had been taken away repeatedly, and he sat listlessly on the ground. Dou An originally had a heart of mortal fearlessness, but at this moment he was nostalgic for the world and began to be afraid.

"Let's see how this case will be judged in the end. If you perform meritorious service, maybe your life will be spared." Du Jiuyan said: "I went to Jiuliu Bamboo Garden a few days ago and saw Jing Yachong."

Both Chen Ying and Dou An looked at him, Chen Ying said: "Do you have evidence?"

"No!" Du Jiuyan said: "Don't say that he has never participated in it. Even if he participated, it is impossible to leave any clues for me."

Dou An said: "Then what are your plans? Mr. Jing is very smart, you will definitely not be able to catch him."

"Yes, he knows astronomy first and geography second, and he didn't do it himself to harm anyone. You have no proof." Chen Ying said.

This is also where Du Jiuyan is depressed.

"You can also write a script to pull him into the trap you set." Dou An said.

Du Jiuyan shook his head, "I can't do what he did."

Jing Yachong's script was exchanged for a real murder case. If she designed it, it would not be as comprehensive and perfect as his.

"Then we just have to wait." Chen Ying said, "I think he might do it again."

Du Jiuyan nodded, "Help me remember in your spare time!" After saying that, she waved her hand and said, "I'm leaving, please tell me if you have anything to do."

She went out from the cell, just as Diao Da came out, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Du."

"I haven't seen you in the past few days. Is there a new case?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Diao Da's eyes moved, and he replied: "It's because there is no case that you didn't see me. I told the adults to rest at home when I have free time."

"That's right, you haven't had a good time during the Chinese New Year." Du Jiuyan said with a smile, "Then you rest, I'm going back."

As she spoke, she left the yamen and turned to look for fat meat.

Fatty heard from her that those people were surprised when they were not in Baoding at all, "I obviously heard them say that they went to Baoding, it shouldn't be."

"Mr. Du, wait for me, I'll ask. She ran out as she said, and after a while, she helped an old man about 50 years old back. The old man's legs and feet are not good, but his thinking is very clear. "Mr. Du, the other party came to recruit workers. When he said it was Baoding’s temple, if he said it was in another place, everyone might not go there. "

"Because it's very close and the wages are good, everyone followed without any hesitation."

"How many people went there?" Du Jiuyan asked.

The old man replied: "There are 61 people, old, young, and active."

"There are so many people. Does it take so many people to build a temple?" Du Jiuyan frowned. She didn't pay much attention to Fat Rou's words before, and she didn't pay attention to this matter at the time.

Listening to it now, it sounds weird.

"Tell me in detail about the situation of the visitor at that time." Du Jiuyan said.

The old man paused and said: "At that time, four men came, and they were not particularly well-dressed. They were the kind of foremen who worked for others. He said that they took over the job of building a temple in Baoding, but they were from the capital city. It’s inconvenient to find someone to do things in Baoding, so I plan to bring someone there.”

"But it's not easy to find someone for the New Year's Eve. He said he would give us fifteen cents a day's wages. Later we negotiated the price with him, and we talked about fifty cents a day. One person gave two days' wages that day, and we brought Let's go together."

"If you are recruited to work, don't you need to report to the military department or the government office?"

The old man said: "You don't need to report, the Bingmasi people want us all to leave the capital and go out to do things. Since you arranged for us to live here, the shed we built at that time was demolished by the Bingmasi people. "

"If we stay there, we will shame them, and they won't care if we leave or not."

"What do those people look like, let's recall."

"When you go, do you walk or take a carriage?"

Fat Rou said: "They said there was a carriage, but it was outside the city." Then he said: "The padded jackets those four people wore were of the same color, they were all dusty, and they were half-new and not old."

"Wear it on your feet..." Fatty said, "It's similar to the shoes worn by soldiers and horses."

Du Jiuyan was slightly stunned, "Do you know that the clothes and shoes worn by the soldiers and horses are uniformly issued by the yamen. They are military boots. They look black, but most of them are made of leather."

"Yes." Fatty said, "I'm sure."

The old man also nodded, "People from Bingma Division often come to our side, so you said that the shoes are the same, and we also think so."

"If it's military boots, then they are military boots. Could it be that they have money and bought them privately?"

Du Jiuyan shook his head, "If you have money, you can buy better shoes, both buckskin and cowhide, and the style is better than military boots."

"You mean...the people who come to recruit workers are actually soldiers?"

"Why did they come to recruit workers?" Fatty asked.

When Du Jiuyan just heard about some things, she was already very resistant and didn't want to listen to them, let alone think about them deeply. She said: "Don't think about it, wait until you find out."

"Do you still remember the looks of those four people? Pick a person with a more distinctive appearance and figure and describe it. I'll try to see if I can draw it."

Fatty and the old man negotiated to find someone.

This person looks very young, about twenty at most, but his height is only a little taller than eight or nine-year-old fat. Besides, that person's gray hair is very eye-catching and impressive.

When Du Jiuyan drew it, the fat and the old man felt very similar. She held the portrait and said, "You can live here with peace of mind. No matter who comes to you, asks you to leave, or takes you to do something, don't go there." .”

"If you have something to discuss with me."

The two followed Ying Shi and sent Du Jiuyan out.

Du Jiuyan held the portrait, and as soon as he went out, he saw a figure flashing past in the opposite forest.

"It's really tight." Du Jiuyan walked with his hands behind his back, and the person following him was hiding behind the bushes or forests, watching and following him from a distance.

She went back to Prince Gui's Mansion to have lunch first, and showed everyone the portrait. Du Jiuyan asked, "My lord, could it be that the government secretly cleaned up these people because they felt that they affected their face?"

"No, it's not been a day or two for the refugees in this area. They should be cleaned up long ago." King Gui said: "My brother also said that it is because of the existence of these people that we can always remind everyone that the big week is not enough. Well, everyone has to work harder."

Du Jiuyan has reservations, because the people below always adhere to one principle when dealing with affairs, and they don't lie to others!
She decided to go to Qiu Zhang for advice.

"Show this man's portrait to Chen Ying first," Du Jiuyan said, "Maybe there will be something to gain."

In the afternoon, she went to the government office again with King Gui, and handed the portrait to Chen Ying, "Have you seen this man?"

Chen Ying stared at it for a long time in the dim light, with doubts in his eyes.

Du Jiuyan and King Gui looked at each other, feeling that something was going on.

"This person...I have an impression!" Chen Ying said with certainty: "I'm so familiar with this hair, I must have seen it somewhere."

"Where?" Du Jiuyan asked.

　Keep the monthly pass for me and give the watch to someone else, otherwise Lao Li will be angry, hahahahaha.
