Nightwatcher

Chapter 61

He looked at Xu Qi'an unobtrusively, saw that his body was tense and his smile was forced, and he said with relief: "I was just ordered to take you back for questioning, and I don't know the details. Remember one sentence: Don’t hide what should be said, and don’t say what should not be said.”

Why don't I know this truth myself? It's not worth thirty taels of silver at all, shit, what's the difference between you and the insincere excuse of "I have asked the relevant department to deal with it" Xu Qi'an really wanted to slap the squinting-eyed man to death, but he didn't dare.

The carriage drove through busy markets and long streets, and arrived at the Dangren Yamen at the beginning of Sishi.

Xu Qi'an jumped off the carriage, and was escorted by two watchmen into this prestigious yamen.

Its office space is rebuilt from two courtyards with three entrances. The attic stands tall, and watchmen in black clothes tied with gongs come in and out. They look serious and awe-inspiring.

I don't know if I will be sent to the big prison where the prisoners are beaten. It's a place where people eat people and don't spit out their bones. Let's wait and see what happens. I am a good citizen and I haven't broken the law. Xu Qi'an took a deep breath to calm down his nervous mood.

After a while, he was brought into a small courtyard.

There were two watchmen standing at the gate of the courtyard, and the two sides made a handover. The man with squinted eyes stopped at the gate of the courtyard and said with a smile, "Go in, and pray for your own blessing."

After speaking, he left with his serious companion.

Xu Qi'an was brought in, and the two watchmen pushed open the door of the room, saying indifferently, "Go in."

This is a torture room, with various instruments of torture placed in the corner, and an empty long table in the center.

The chief interrogator did not come.

Xu Qi'an didn't dare to sit on a chair, and stood in the room, thinking about why the watchman would look for him.

But before he had time to think about it, footsteps came and someone entered the yard.

The door opened, and two middle-aged men with silver gongs embroidered on their chests walked in.

Xu Qi'an, whose muscles tensed for a moment, quickly glanced at the two silver gongs, and was surprised to find that one of them was actually an old acquaintance.

He has a straight nose, profound facial features, and slightly lighter pupils. He is half of Nanban blood.

It was the silver gong that I saw in the back hall of the government office during the tax and bank case.

"We meet again." Li Yuchun nodded, without any warmth in his eyes.

The two silver gongs sat behind the table with serious expressions, and looked at Xu Qi'an sharply.

"I ask you to answer, if you lie, you will be punished with great punishment." The strange Yin Gong said in a deep voice.

"Yes..." Xu Qi'an's heart sank, the two of them were looking at the prisoner.

Li Yuchun frowned: "Before answering questions, tidy up your clothes first, this is the most basic etiquette."

Only then did Xu Qi'an realize that his clothes were too loose and not symmetrical enough. It was caused by stealing a bank note on the carriage.

After he tightened his clothes, Li Yuchun looked slightly relaxed, as if he had solved a problem in his mind.

The face-to-face Yin Luo asked: "Do you know that the mastermind behind the tax and silver case is the former Minister of Zhou?"

Xu Qi'an answered truthfully: "I heard about it from Caiwei from Sitianjian."

"Then you know that Zhou Li dealt with you out of revenge."

"I got it."

Xu Qi'an kept in mind the warning of the squint-eyed youth, and never concealed what should be said. That day, Si Tianjian's white-clothed officers rushed into the Ministry of Criminal Justice to rescue him. They couldn't deny it.

It's better to admit it generously and look like a bright future.

"Do you know that Zhou Li wants to kill you?"

"Know."

"So, in order not to be retaliated by the Zhou family, you kidnapped the concubine's daughter of Marquis Wu and blamed it on Zhou Li." The strange Yin Luo's eyes flashed sharply.

Sure enough, it was because of this matter that Xu Qi'an didn't panic in the slightest, and even showed a certain degree of bewilderment, and the panic of being wronged: "What the adults say, the villains can't understand."

"The day the mighty Marquis concubine was kidnapped, you were not on duty at the Changle County Yamen, where did you go?"

"The villain went to Goulan to listen to the music. The villain is indeed dereliction of duty. He often sneaks to Goulan to listen to the music."

On this point, Wang Butou and other subordinates can testify for him, because everyone fishes like this.

What's more, my Kuaishou in Changle County is absent from work to go to Goulan, so what does it have to do with your watchmen?

"Then how do you explain the voucher? In the records of the voucher issued by the yamen, it shows that you went to the inner city many times." Li Yuchun said in a deep voice.

"The villain is wronged!" Xu Qi'an widened his eyes and defended himself excitedly: "The villain has never been to the inner city, and he has never taken a certificate from the yamen."

They're framing me. When I enter the inner city, I have to entrust someone to do it. My hands and feet are clean, and the client is Yang Ling. What does it have to do with me, Xu Qi'an?

The two silver gongs interrogated for a while, but they didn't catch any clues from Xu Qi'an's words.

They looked at each other, seemingly surprised.

When it comes to interrogation techniques, Xu Qi'an, who is also a professional, heaved a sigh of relief, his eyes caught sight of the instruments of torture, and his heart tightened again.

Li Yuchun sighed: "Yes, if we hadn't obtained the evidence in advance, we might have believed you based on the conversation just now."

Xu Qi'an's face was expressionless as he was framing me again with a confident tone.

As a police academy graduate and a professional who has worked in the police station for several years, Xu Qi'an is confident in handling all kinds of interrogations. Unless the other party beat him into a trick, that's another matter.

Zhou Shilang has fallen, and without evidence, he believes that the watchman will not be too difficult.

The face-faced Yin Gong took out a small book from his pocket, opened it, glanced at Xu Qi'an, and read from the book:

"On the first day of October, the day of Renxu, Xu Qi'an returned from Yunlu Academy and bought two gold steppers at Baoqixuan. On the way, he was followed by someone who was suspected to be from the Zhou residence.

"That night, I frightened away the assassins of the Zhou Mansion."

"On the second day of October, Guihai Day, move the female relatives to Yunlu Academy to avoid disaster."

"On the fifth day of October, Bingyin Day, I entered the inner city and joined the Jiaofang Division. I stayed overnight in Yingmei Xiaoge, and the "Gift of Floating Fragrance" is suspected to be Xu Qi'an's work."

"On the seventh day of October, on the day of Wuchen, a horse-drawn carriage ran into the concubine of the mighty Marquis, and robbed the concubine of the mighty Marquis by unknown means."

Mian Sheng Yin Luo closed the notebook, looked at Xu Qi'an mockingly, and sneered.

Every inch of Xu Qi'an's body felt cold, as if he lacked wrapping clothes in the cold winter months, he shivered slowly.

The beater was following me the day I went to the academy, and all the plans these days have been seen by the beater!

Why did the watchmen follow me? I'm just a little fast player. This is unreasonable. Xu Qi'an roared angrily in his heart.

He felt an abyss of despair.

Framed the servant of the household department and kidnapped the marquis's daughter. The two crimes combined are enough to kill everyone.

The great scholars of Yunlu Academy could not save him, the white robes of Si Tianjian could not save him, no one could save him!

My hands and feet were cleaned up without leaving any evidence that could incriminate me, but the watchman who followed me witnessed my planner the whole way.

Xu Qi'an's forehead was dripping with cold sweat, and under the playful and cold gaze of the two silver gongs, it slowly slid across his cheeks and dripped to the ground.

etc!

He suddenly noticed an unreasonable detail. Since the watchman witnessed the whole process, why didn't he expose him?

As long as the notebook is submitted, Zhou Li will be able to get rid of the crime, but the butcher's knife swung at the Xu family fell again after a month and a half late.

Why wait until Zhou Shilang's downfall before inviting him over for "tea".

Xu Qi'an let out a breath of foul air, together with all kinds of negative emotions, and lowered his eyebrows pleasingly: "The villain pleaded guilty, and everything was done by the villain. How the two adults deal with it is up to you."

The stern-faced Yin Luo raised his eyebrows, looked at Li Yuchun, and they both smiled.

"Very smart, very perceptive." Li Yuchun said with a smile: "Just now I was testing you. If you show any flaws during the interrogation, or your mind is destroyed in front of the hard evidence, then you will be greeted with real sanctions."

After a pause, he withdrew his serious expression, and his smile became more relaxed: "And now, what greets you is an invitation to beat the watchman."
