Chapter 189 The original crime scene (Part )
Lu Lu paused and took a breath, then continued, "The deceased demanded that her husband must shoulder the burden of supporting the family, saying that if things continued like this, sooner or later their family would not even be able to afford food.
The deceased's husband felt that she was disrespecting his dignity as a husband by yelling at him and bossing him around, so he got so angry that he beat her up. Fortunately, their son rushed out and cried and begged his father to stop, and the quarrel was finally settled.
After that, the deceased's husband was finally willing to help in the store, but not because of what the deceased had said to him, but because after he had spent all the money his parents left him, he finally realized that no one would continue to give him money, so he reluctantly began to help in the store.
However, he was not good at doing his job and was often lazy. The only way their bun shop could continue to operate was thanks to a bun chef hired by his parents when they were alive and some regular customers.
However, under the perfunctory management of the new owner, even the strongest foundation was worn out. The business of the bun shop became worse and worse, and there were fewer and fewer customers. The bun master in the shop even mentioned several times that he wanted to go back to his hometown to enjoy the company of his grandchildren, but he had no choice but to stay because of the deceased's plea.
The relationship between the couple became increasingly tense. The deceased’s husband almost beat her to death because the shop master first proposed to return to his hometown. In order to keep him, the deceased promised to increase his monthly salary. When the deceased’s husband found out, he was very angry, which led to that disaster.
Su Liuyue frowned when she heard this.
Tsk, are they husband and wife, or enemies?
She thought about how Lu Lu had not come to see her after the incident, and a light bulb went off in her head, so she asked, "Did you think at the time that the victim was most likely killed by her husband?"
Lu Lu couldn't help but said with great admiration: "She is indeed Miss Su San! That's right, after we learned about the couple's situation, we felt that her husband was a big suspect.
In addition, Miss Su San had not come to Jingzhao Prefecture during that period, and we thought that you might be busy with something, so we decided not to disturb Miss Su San until we had some clues about the case.
Her husband insisted that he had been helping out in the store all day that day. However, when we asked the store clerks, they said that the deceased's husband did come to the store that day, but soon left with several baskets of buns, saying that he was delivering goods. He was gone the whole day and only came back to show his face just before the store closed.
We asked the deceased's husband who he was delivering the goods to that day, but he hesitated and refused to answer. He only mentioned a few names when we asked him urgently. We checked the names he mentioned, but those people said they didn't order any buns that day!"
It was because of that bastard that they had wasted days looking up all that bullshit he was saying!
"Later, I was so angry that I arrested him and took him to the Jingzhao prison. He told me the truth. It turned out that my grandson had a mistress outside of Xinjing City! He had been fooling around with that mistress that day!"
Su Liuyue pursed her lips uncomfortably and said, "However, the alibi provided by someone close to you cannot be counted."
Because it would be suspected of covering up.
Lu Lu gritted his teeth secretly and said, "We thought so too, so in the following days, we were busy investigating the people near his mistress's residence to see if anyone had seen him there that day.
However, we later discovered that the direction of our investigation was wrong, completely wrong!
Because early this morning, another case with exactly the same circumstances appeared, and the husband of the first victim was still locked up in our jail until this morning!"
Therefore, it is impossible that he is the one who committed the crime!
This was also the reason why he hurried to the Xue family early this morning to seek help from Miss Su San.
The second victim appeared in the same case. It was their negligence and they cannot escape blame.
Su Liuyue had expected this to happen, so she walked over to a chair nearby and sat down, saying, "Lu Dutou, please sit down too. Ersi, go make a pot of tea."
According to this situation, this case will take quite some time to be told. The second victim was also a resident of Xinjing City, also a woman, surnamed Zhong, 22 years old this year. She died in the same way as the first victim, wearing a set of bright red wedding dress, with a red veil covering her face, with marks on her neck, severe contusions on her wrists, and a knife almost piercing her chest.
However, this woman's background is much more complicated than that of the first victim.
She comes from the Zhong family. Although the Zhong family was not as good as the five major families in the previous dynasty, its status was not low either. It was considered the second-tier family in Dayan.
Because in the late period of the previous dynasty, the Zhong family firmly supported the royal family of the previous dynasty and fought the army of the new dynasty to the end. Therefore, after the founding of Daqing, all the men of the Zhong family were exiled to a bitter and cold place, and the women were either sent to the palace as maids or directly sent to the Jiaofangsi.
The deceased girl from the Zhong family was one of the women who were sent to the Jiaofangsi. However, because she was extremely beautiful and talented, she was secretly redeemed not long after she entered the Jiaofangsi and was sent out to be a concubine.
Generally speaking, such criminals were kept under very strict control, and ordinary people were not allowed to take them out of the Jiaofangsi at will. It is conceivable that the person who redeemed her was also not ordinary - he was a rising noble who followed the new emperor to conquer the world, and the second son of the current Minister of Revenue, Li Hengyi.
Moreover, Li Hengyi had already married and had children. His wife also came from a new powerful family and was the only daughter of General Murong. She not only had a hot temper but was also very jealous. Therefore, others often laughed at Li Hengyi. I'm afraid that not even a female fly could fly into his backyard.
No wonder this guy would secretly keep a mistress outside.
When Su Liuyue heard this, she couldn't help but say, "This case sounds difficult to investigate."
She had been helping Jingzhao Prefecture investigate cases for such a long time, but this was the first time she had come across a case related to emerging dignitaries.
"you do not say."
Router couldn't help but sigh.
There was nothing difficult to investigate the case itself. He firmly believed that no matter what the case was, as long as the right method was found, the truth would be revealed.
The trouble is dealing with those powerful people.
"Early this morning, after we received the report, we immediately rushed to the courtyard where Miss Zhong was living. As soon as we got there, we ran into the wife of the second young master of the Li family who was rushing over angrily and the second young master Li who was chasing after her.
The second young lady of the Li family insisted on going in to see the deceased. We were worried that she would be disrespectful to the deceased, so we had to use a lot of effort and even dispatched Lu Shaoyin to stop her.
Now, she is still outside that yard, unwilling to leave at all."
After listening to this, Su Liuyue immediately said, "I already understand the situation. Let's go to the crime scene now."
This case involves these emerging dignitaries, which is indeed a bit troublesome, but she cares more about the case itself.
The fact that they stopped the Li family members on the route showed that the crime scene had not been destroyed.
Going there now is your only chance to see the crime scene in its original form!
