Great Lawyer

Chapter 822 At Home (Part [-])

"What's the matter?" Liu Yongli asked.

Du Jiuyan said: "That is Zheng Wenyin's wife Ma Shi. She disappeared after returning to her natal home on the morning of the sixteenth day."

"Go home?" Zheng Wenhai asked.

Du Jiuyan nodded and said, "Go home. Her neighbors not only saw her, but also talked with her for a long time in the alley before they left, watching her enter the house."

Zheng Wenhai was very surprised. He looked at Zheng Yu and asked, "Your mother came home on the [-]th day. Why did you say you didn't go back?"

"No." Zheng Yu looked at Du Jiuyan with a strange face, and said, "Did my neighbor tell you? What time is it?"

Du Jiuyan looked at Liu Yongli and said, "Excuse me, my lord, pass on witnesses again."

The neighbor of Zheng Yu's family was taken to court, and Liu Yongli asked, "Did you indeed see Mrs. Ma and chat with her at noon on the [-]th day?"

"Yes!" the woman replied, "She had just returned from her natal home outside the city. I asked her why she didn't stay an extra day when she went back. She said it was nothing serious, so she went home to discuss some things with her sister-in-law, and came back after the discussion. gone."

"It's good to be close. If you want to go back and forth, you can go back and forth for a quarter of an hour."

"Later she told me that she heard from her natal sister-in-law a few days ago that there was a very nice girl. She was moved and wanted to meet someone. She thought it was good, so she asked for it to be Mr. Yu's sequel."

Liu Yongli glanced at the files on the table and said, "This point is exactly what Ma's sister-in-law Qu said."

"Sister-in-law Ma's wish this year is to renew Mr. Yu's strings. Otherwise, Mr. Yu will eat and sleep at home all day, and don't go out to do errands and walk around with others. It will definitely not be good after a long time." The woman said.

Liu Yongli nodded.

"Thank you." Du Jiuyan said.

The clerk hurried up to let the woman sign.

"Mr. Yu, were you not at home at the time? Why didn't you see your mother?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Zheng Yu replied: "I don't go out, but I sleep in the room in the backyard. Could it be that my mother went out again after she went back?"

"It also makes sense." Du Jiuyan asked, "Then what about your father, when did you disappear?"

Zheng Yu replied: "My father was still at home that night on the fifteenth day, and he never came back after going out in the morning on the sixteenth day."

"Zheng Wenyin's disappearance, it can be suspected that Guan Fan rebelled because of money, but what is the reason for Ma's disappearance?" Du Jiuyan asked, "Who knows?"

She glanced at everyone, then turned to the door, looking at the audience outside the door.

Lian Bo took the lead, and everyone was amazed. Didn't Mr. Du ask them?

"Lian Bo, Lian Bo, you answer." Someone pushed Lian Bo.

Lian Bo shook his head, shrank back, and said, "I, I don't know, and I dare not."

How dare you talk nonsense.

"Could it be that Mrs. Zheng was kidnapped and Mr. Zheng was threatened?" A policeman rushed to answer.

Du Jiuyan snapped his fingers and said, "Beautiful!"

The policeman blushed and said with a hey smile, "I, I don't understand these things."

"It's okay, I will focus on training you in the future, so that you can become a real catcher!"

The catcher's eyes lit up, he kowtowed excitedly to Du Jiuyan, and said, "Thank you, Princess, thank you!"

The other detectives looked at him enviously.

"Then, the time seems to be more accurate again. After Zheng Wenyin received his military salary on the fifteenth day, he went out early the next morning, and then Guan Fan's accomplices captured Mrs. Zheng and threatened Zheng Wenyin!"

"Let him take out the military salary willingly."

Du Jiuyan said: "However, a new problem has arisen.

"I know." The first time in the courtroom, the little policeman who watched the spider doze off in the courtroom quickly raised his hand to answer, "Just now you said that someone pretended to be Mr. Zheng to withdraw money, so it was Mr. Zheng who was arrested early in the morning , or catch Mrs. Zheng and threaten Mr. Zheng?"

Du Jiuyan pointed to the little policeman and said, "Young man, you are very smart."

The little catcher smiled and said, "Then, can you also train me?"

"Okay!" Du Jiuyan nodded.

The little catcher was so excited that he blushed and kowtowed.

At this moment, all the police officers in the audience stared round, listened carefully, and waited for the next opportunity to answer.

Zheng Wenhai was dumbfounded, how could this be the case in court?To actually mobilize these detectives who are eating and waiting to die, so that they scramble to answer her questions.

As expected of Du Jiuyan, his ability to confuse people really lives up to his reputation.

"Then did Zheng Wenyin be arrested first, or Ma Shi first? If Zheng Wenyin was arrested first and pretended to exist, why did he pretend to be Ma?"

"If Mrs. Ma is arrested first, with Zheng Wenyin's character, he should first tell the patriarch and then rescue him, instead of obeying the threats and orders of others like a puppet."

"I know." Another big-armed policeman quickly replied, "First Mr. Zheng was arrested, then Mrs. Ma. It must be that after Mrs. Ma went to the street, he found the fake Zheng Wenyin, and then the other party silenced him." .”

Du Jiuyan applauded, nodded and said: "This Shenglong Mansion, which has been idle for hundreds of years, is simply a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger!"

"Amazing, amazing!"

The chubby catcher knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Little man Lian Kui, Mr. Du, you have to train me too."

"Remember, Lian Kui!"

Lian Kuixi smiled.

The other two suddenly remembered that they didn't introduce their names just now, and they were immediately annoyed. They were gearing up and waiting for the next answer, so that they would have the opportunity to report their names.

"Applause for them!" Du Jiuyan turned and said to the people outside the door.

Lian Bo thought it was nothing to applaud, so he immediately applauded along with Du Jiuyan.

As soon as he moved, the people behind him applauded together. Inside and outside the yamen, the applause was as intense as thunder, exciting and lively.

For the first time, all the catchers and Youyou feel that they have new hope and ambition in this yamen.

"Then let's continue." Du Jiuyan said, "Suppose, as Lian Kui said, Zheng Wenyin was killed first, and then Ma Shi discovered the fake Zheng Wenyin, and was silenced by the other party."

Everyone listened very carefully and thought together with her. Suddenly, she changed the subject, raised her voice, and asked, "So, when will Mrs. Ma go out again?"

"Ah?" Someone exclaimed involuntarily, and felt that he had lost his composure again, and hurriedly covered his mouth.

It's like walking. Du Jiuyan obviously walked straight forward, although each branch has a fork, but it keeps going forward.But what she just said just now suddenly turned around, and their thoughts hit the wall all at once.

He stared at her dazedly.

"Zheng Yu, when do you think your mother left home again?" Du Jiuyan asked Zheng Yu.

Zheng Yu rubbed her neck and said, "I, I don't know."

"You don't know, don't your two servants know?" Du Jiuyan asked.

Zheng Yu shook her head and said, "I, I haven't heard from them, I don't know."

"My lord, please pass on the two wives of the Zheng family."

Liu Yongli nodded and said, "Tell me!"

Zheng Wenhai felt a little strange when he heard the two wives of Zheng Yu's family, and asked, "Is this incident related to Zheng Wenyin's disappearance? It can't prove that it wasn't done by Guan Fan."

"Princess, you are dragging the matter away and favoring Guan Fan?"

Du Jiuyan said: "Master Zheng, the case has not yet been hammered. After hearing all the arguments, it's not too late to ask questions."

Let's see what you say!If you are partial, I will definitely not save any face for you, Zheng Wenhai said in his heart.

The two women in Zheng Yu's family were brought up, and they knelt down and kowtowed tremblingly. Liu Yongli asked, "On the [-]th, your mistress returned home from her mother's house. Have you seen her?"

"Madam didn't come back." The two women looked at each other, and one of the women with dark skin said, "Master went out first that morning, and Madam followed her back to her mother's house."

"Later, neither the master nor the madam came back."

Liu Yongli patted the gavel, and the old table trembled three times: "Your neighbor said that she saw your wife come back at noon that day, and she even talked with your wife in the alley. "

"Seeing her enter the door with your own eyes, how do you explain this?"

The two women looked surprised, and after a while they said: "Then, could it be that we are taking a nap, and we don't know when Madam is back?"

"You take a nap before noon? You, a servant, do it more easily than the master."

The dark-skinned woman rolled her eyes and said: "That day, Madam and Master were not at home, and Mr. Yu was sleeping again. We didn't have to cook lunch at noon, so we took a nap early."

"What a coincidence!" Liu Yongli said.

The two women did not speak.

"So, the three of you are convinced that your wife didn't come home at noon?" Du Jiuyan asked Zheng Yu.

Zheng Yu replied: "I really don't know if my mother has returned home or not."

"Your mother has returned home!" Du Jiuyan looked at him and said, "Not only has she returned, but she is still at home now!"

Zheng Yu was startled, and looked up at her with a puzzled and bewildered expression: "What do you mean?"

"What do you mean she's still at home?" Zheng Wenhai didn't understand.

Du Jiuyan said: "Just now, after we assumed that Guan Fan was the murderer, we assumed many possibilities, but every possibility has its unreasonable and contradictory points."

"We have to keep looking for reasons and reasons for these contradictions, otherwise, the inferences mentioned will not hold."

Du Jiuyan said: "In terms of reasoning, once you keep looking for reasons and retreats for your own reasoning, it means that there may be loopholes and wrong directions in this reasoning."

Everyone looked surprised, trying desperately to keep up with her rhythm with all their wits, guess what she was about to say, and what she meant now.

"So, this only shows that all our previous inferences are wrong, the murderer is not Guan Fan, and has nothing to do with him!"

Zheng Wenhai stood up abruptly, and said, "Princess, are you trying to excuse Guan Fan?"

"No!" Du Jiuyan said, "I'm looking for the truth of the case. Master Zheng's purpose is just to convict Guan Fan, or to find the real murderer and bring him to justice?"

Zheng Wenhai stared at her.

"Master Zheng!" Liu Yongli patted the table and said, "This is the court, if you have any questions, please ask later!"

Zheng Wenhai pointed to Liu Yongli, telling him to remember that he will settle this account later in the autumn.

Liu Yongli looked up at him with contempt.

"There is only one explanation for this case, and there is only one possibility, which is..." She walked up to Zheng Yu, looked at him closely, and said, "Your parents never left your house after the [-]th."

"Because they are always at home."
