Chapter 16 The Ruler for Measuring the Heavens (Part 2)
The autumn rain is continuous, and dark clouds cover the moon.
A black light merged into the night and sneaked into the Kaifeng Prefecture.
Pride was engraved into the bones of Bai Yutang. Even though he was influenced by Bao Zheng's magic power at this moment, he still remained unchanged and did not use magic tricks that conceal his body.
The journey was like an old horse, and when he encountered a forbidden formation blocking the way, he showed off the waist sign worshipped by the Immortal Master of Kaifeng Mansion and passed it smoothly.
Niu Dagang and the others only knew that Mr. Bai was a friend of Lord Zhan. Because of his strange temperament, he wanted to be a sharpener. However, he didn't know that Bai Yutang's private identity had long been worshipped by the Immortal Master of Kaifeng Mansion, and he was the only demon clan among the Immortal Masters.
In addition to the backyard of the private house where Kaifeng Prefecture Order Hai Zhenggang is located, Baiyutang can be accessed in Kaifeng Prefecture Order.
After Wu Guang sneaked into the Kaifeng Prefecture document room, he left soon and took Shuqing's file without knowing it.
After a while, the file had already arrived in Bao Zheng's hands.
Bao Zheng used a small Legalist technique, "Shadow Technique", copied the contents of the file, and said to Bai Yutang with a smile: "Return the file back to its original position, Brother Bai can go back to rest, and the agency relationship should be terminated."
Bai Yutang's eyes were a little confused, and he took the file and turned around and left.
After the agency relationship was terminated, even he, the thousand-year-old monster, could not remember that he stole the file and handed it to Bao Zheng.
Looking at Bai Yutang's back, Bao Zheng shook his head secretly.
It seems that my magic power is not enough...
Bai Yutang's magic power is far greater than him. Even if he had that wisdom tooth as a medium, he successfully used the great power of the Legalists, but during the period of maintaining his agency relationship, he was consuming mana all the time.
In just a moment, he consumed his mana for fifty years.
No matter how hard the five sharpeners in the B-shaped room, they are simply free-range and will not be consumed.
But this attempt was still very worthwhile, at least it allowed him to verify the infinite mystery of the great magical power of "Speaker of the Law of Knowing the Law".
As long as you master the things that implicate the opponent's bloodline, you can establish an agent relationship with the opponent above the level. If this magical power is used ingeniously, it is like a nuclear deterrent.
Pages of the file are flipping and taking photos, and the bag is beginning to carefully review it.
‘In the 16th year of Kangcheng, on June 23, a wild field gopher, Xiao Yao Shuqing, came to Beijing to take the exam. During his stay in Beijing, he often coveted the good wife Youshi, and asked for a poem to keep a close friend, so he could prove it to be a neighbor.’
‘On June 27th, You's head was thrown away at a dark night and appeared on the donkey meat stall next to the neighbor Huang family. When he died, his shirt fell off and his lower body was naked and bare. It was a case of killing ***.’
'After investigation, there was a mark on Youshi's upper body, which was the aura of a gopher monster. The broken neck was like a crack in the claws, which was combined with the original claws of the gopher. Shu Qing was very suspicious.'
‘On June 28th, the demon-killing room arrested Shu Qing and brought him to justice. He said he was wronged. Kaifeng Prefecture has always judged the case and made a serious statement. Since the evidence is conclusive, how can there be no reason to not be taken under the Three Woods? The three-sweeping of the Criminal Sweeping, Shu Qing confessed to commit this case to see the beauty. According to the law of Dagen, those who commit crimes should be beheaded and their souls should be destroyed!’
The files in Kaifeng Prefecture are very strict, and there are records of them that can be found in the investigation, proactive prosecution, autopsy, and court review. It seems that there are no flaws.
But Bao Zheng shook his head slowly.
Putting aside the fact that "Xiwen Lu" has determined that this is an unjust case, it is also a big problem to just analyze the case from a logical basis.
After all, Shuqing has read the books of sages and has a "Confucian demon" who has the title of juren.
This time he went to Beijing to take the exam, hoping to get a gold medal and become a demon official. Why didn’t he commit a crime sooner or later, but he would commit this serious crime the day before taking the autumn examination?
A flower scammer is not such a flower scammer, right?
As for love-taking poetry, this is just a hobby of cultural people and cannot be regarded as a crime motive at all.
Moreover, after killing Youshi, he had to leave a body and hung his head on the hook of Huang family's donkey meat. He was afraid that others would not know about it, and intentionally alarm Kaifeng Mansion?
After all, he has been practicing for a hundred years and has become a demon clan in human body. Is it true that there is no way to cover up his breath when committing a crime? What can I do when taking a human head? I have to use rat claws to break You's pink neck?
Just this kind of brain-filling water, or is it a juren?
If the procurator and prosecutor of Kaifeng Prefecture did not notice these doubts, Bao Zhizhi would not believe it.
But in the end, they forced Shu Qing to confess and died with superficial evidence.
Although there is no problem with the procedure on the surface, it can be seen that even Mingru Kaifeng Prefecture still has prejudice against these demon clans.
If it weren't for the gopher monster, would it be so hasty if it were a human juren with a background?
Bao Zheng can actually understand Kaifeng Prefecture.
As for the demon clan, they are originally ‘second-class citizens’. From the standpoint of the human race, they really cannot ask them to do their best for a little gopher.
However, from the perspective of the Legalists, since he knew about this case, he wanted to clear Shuqing's grievances. This was caused by his previous life experience, so it would be difficult to understand the idea if he didn't do so.
"Whether Youshi was not killed by Shuqing, who is the real murderer? Judging from the file, Youshi came from a good family and had only been married to a cloth merchant for a year. Although her husband often went out to enter and ship goods, and was lonely in the empty room. He liked to look around the door and attract bees and butterflies, there was no tangible evidence that she had violated the rules of her wife."
"And Yu's background and experience are not complicated, and Kaifeng Prefecture has not found out what enemies she has."
"Bianjing is at the foot of the emperor. Kaifeng Prefecture suppresses the area. All flower-picking thieves dare not commit crimes in the capital. Moreover, flower-picking thieves also have rules for flower-picking thieves. They will never kill people afterwards, and they will even hang their heads in the butcher shop opposite..."
"You's family is neither a vendetta nor a poisonous attack from the flower-picking thief. You can basically give up the investigation of You's family. The target of the real murderer is probably not You's family, but Shu Qing, the unlucky gopher monster!"
Bao Zheng peeled off the cocoon and spun the threads, and then continued to reason, and soon found the direction to solve the case.
His investigation direction is now: Is anyone who killed You Shi and blamed the gopher Yao Shuqing? What is the purpose of this move?
Shuqing is just a little gopher who has been practicing for a hundred years. He has never attracted anyone and has provoked anyone. Why should the real culprit blame him? It is not difficult to kill this little gopher. Why do you have to kill someone to blame? It is a storm in the city?
There seem to be many unreasonable things.
But Bao Zheng's case handling experience told him that when there are too many unreasonable situations, it will sometimes become reasonable, and there is often an unknown conspiracy hidden behind it.
Now that Shu Qing's unjust case has been more than a month, I'm afraid a lot of evidence has been lost. To successfully overturn the case for Shu Qing and wash away the grievances, you must go to the big cart shop next to Huang Ji Donkey Meat.
Thinking of this, Bao Zheng was a little embarrassed.
With his current status in Niu Dagang's eyes, it is not difficult to take leave and go out, but he has no money!
At present, he just wants to investigate secretly. Even if he asks Niu Dagang for leave, he will find another reason, so he is not convenient to ask Niu Dagang for case handling funds.
One hundred and thirty texts a month are just enough to eat and drink. In addition, Bai Yutang comes to eat and drink at any time, and he has long been struggling to find out. Now he has to go out to investigate the case. Isn’t it nonsense to have no money?
"Xiaowen Lu" rewards martial arts and magical powers, but he doesn't reward money, and he is not lucky enough to go out to pick up money every day.
It’s really a penny that stumped the hero. Who would have thought that he, a monk with thousands of years of magic, would be worried about money?
