An Unusual Murder Case!
"Take me to the place you mentioned.”
Arriving at Zhao Manor, Yang Yi quickly got into character and checked Zhao Xiangyan's house.
At the same time, he activated his divine-tier observation ability and carefully examined the surrounding footprints and footsteps.
After looking at it for a while, a strange light flashed in his eyes again.
Then, he checked the surroundings and the layout of the houses.
He realized that this was obviously a rich family's residence. There was a small garden outside Zhao Xiangyan's window. The garden was well kept and the plants were lush.
"Did you find anything?"
After checking the situation, Yang Yi did not ask Zhao Xiangyan again. Instead, he asked Xing Tong if he had discovered anything.
However, he was very disappointed. These bailiffs had investigated and found no clues.
"Zhao Xiangyan."
Seeing that there was no obvious progress in the case, Yang Yichao looked at Zhao Xiangyan with confusion and then called her name.
"I'm here!"
Zhao Xiangyan was very cooperative and replied with a bow.
"This case is indeed very strange. Let's pretend to go back. If you come again at night, don't give yourself away.”
After Zhao Xiangyan replied, Yang Yi immediately voiced his thoughts.
Hearing this, Zhao Xiangyan seemed very happy and hurriedly thanked Yang Yi.
At the same time, he also decided to make some supper to thank Yang Yi and the others for waiting for him.
In response, Yang Yi led a group of people and swaggered away. When the sky turned dark, he brought Xing Tong back to Zhao Manor quietly. He hid in the dark and observed the situation outside Zhao Xiangyan's window.
He squatted for the entire night, but Yang Yi did not find anything.
There was not even a shadow of a ghost, let alone a shadow.
Yang Yi didn't say anything when he realized that he didn't get anything.
He returned to the yamen to take a nap, then brought Xing Tong back to continue camping here.
For two consecutive nights, they did not gain anything.
Yang Yi revealed a strange smile when he realized this.
"The thief might just want to scare you. Do your business in peace!”
After two days of fruitless work, Yang Yi decided to give up, thinking that the thief was just trying to scare her.
"Thank you, Magistrate."
Zhao Xiangyan was very happy to see Yang Yi waiting for her personally. She immediately thanked Yang Yi.
He sent them to the village entrance before returning.
Returning to the county office, Yang Yi summoned Liu Fulai and Zhu Yong for a meeting.
Recently, the weather was getting hotter and hotter. Not only were there mountains in Yanggu County, but the houses of the residents were either thatched or made of wood. It was very easy for a fire to break out.
Yang Yi decided to let them publicize it more so that the people would not be harmed by the fire.
However, during the discussion, Yang Yi heard someone beating a drum outside the yamen.
He had no choice but to interrupt the meeting and go to the hall to prepare for the trial.
"Zhao Xiangyan?"
Yang Yi thought that someone had reported the case, but it turned out to be Zhao Xiangyan. He was quite surprised.
"Sir, you must help me! My brother was killed by thieves last night!”
Yang Yi had thought that this matter would be over, but who knew that there would be a murder case.
"Your brother was killed? Quickly tell me the details, don't hide anything.”
Hearing that there was a murder case, Yang Yi became more serious.
Whether it was from the performance assessment or his heart. The murder case must be solved, and the murderer must be punished to prevent him from harming others!
"Milord, this is what happened. Last night, she went to her fiancé's house and did not return home.
Who knew that my brother came from the county town to Zhao Village to check on the latest situation of the cloth shop. When I came back, I found out that my brother was dead…"
Hearing Yang Yi's question, Zhao Xiangyan sobbed and explained the matter, allowing Yang Yi to finally understand the ins and outs.
"Men, immediately set off for the Zhao Manor!”
After listening to Zhao Xiangyan's story, Yang Yi immediately led his men to the Zhao Manor.
Zhao Xiangyan's brother's family lived in Yanggu County and ran a cloth business. As Zhao Xiangyan was about to get married, she lived with her parents and took care of the business.
His parents no longer cared about the affairs of the family and had gone to distant places to visit relatives. Currently, only Zhao Xiangyan and some uncles and aunts were left in his hometown.
When he arrived at Zhao Manor, he realized that Zhao Xiangyan's house was already surrounded by villagers.
At the entrance of the Zhao family's central room, a young man was lying in a pool of blood with a dagger stabbed in his chest.
"Men, immediately check the surroundings and see if there is anything suspicious.”
He found out that there was indeed a murder.
Yang Yi's expression turned serious as he ordered the bailiffs to investigate.
"This person is really bold, daring to commit murder in the middle of the night.”
"Wealth moves people's hearts. Perhaps the thief saw that Zhao Xiangyan was alone at home and wanted to rob her of her money and sex.”
"This is great. If the Zhao family's daughter marries someone else, the dowry will be so generous that her future husband's mouth will definitely be crooked from laughing.”
"You can't say that. The other party also has a large cloth shop. It could be an accident."
"The county magistrate is handsome and talented. If any girl marries him, she will enjoy endless glory and wealth!”
Seeing a large group of people from the county government investigating the case, the surrounding villagers discussed animatedly.
While discussing the case, they were full of admiration for Yang Yi's handsome appearance.
He believed that the young man had a bright future and would most likely become a high official in the future.
Ignoring these discussions, Yang Yi continued to investigate the case.
"The deceased is your brother, Zhao Gang?"
After observing the deceased, Yang Yi found that the person's face was slightly swollen and had several wounds.
Hence, he called Zhao Xiangyan to identify him so that he wouldn't get the wrong person.
"Sir, the deceased is my brother Zhao Gang. You must seek justice for me and bring the thief to justice!”
Zhao Xiangyan was very sad and kept crying at the side.
After identifying the body, she seemed even more sad and cried loudly.
"Take her away and find a few more people to identify her.”
To be on the safe side, Yang Yi found several villagers to identify the deceased.
The villagers all said that the deceased was Zhao Gang.
In this regard, the identity of the corpse was basically confirmed. It was Zhao Gang from the Zhao family's cloth shop.
The corpse had not been touched. Yang Yi observed it and found that the index finger of one of the deceased's hands was open, pointing slightly at the wall in the middle of the hall.
On the wall, there was a set of pretty good words!
When Yang Yi read the words, a strange light flashed in his eyes.
At the same time, he personally examined the corpse and found something strange on the finger of the deceased.
He found a small dent on the side of the victim's middle finger!
Yang Yi fell into deep thought.
"Magistrate, we have already investigated everywhere. No one in the village saw Zhao Gang come. There's nothing suspicious around!"
Xing Tong reported to Yang Yi after some investigation.
There was no progress in the investigation of these bailiffs!
"Coroner, examine the deceased carefully and record his characteristics clearly.
Xing Tong immediately discovered the bounty notice and went all out to pursue the murderer!”
Thinking that the perpetrator was flawless and that he did not gain much, Yang Yi immediately gave the order.
He decided to investigate for a few more days.
A fox will eventually reveal its tail.
Such a meticulous method of murder, he found something unusual in this case.
