Chapter 289: Spring Outing Kidnapping Incident [(3)]

Take Jueer to the Central Judicial Office to interrogate a case?

Although Ma Chunfeng had a faint premonition in his heart, he couldn't help but burst into anger when he heard Sun Shaozong saying so.

He entrusted Sun Shaozong to investigate the case to save his son, not to send him to the Central Judicial Office to have his head cut off!

So the old man shook his sleeve and shouted with his beard and hair all open, "Lord Sun, I can't understand what you're saying! How dare you conclude that Jueer is related to the case three years ago?

The first few sentences were quite imposing.

But the final sentence, related to the case three years ago exposed his true thoughts. Sun Shaozong just mentioned that Ma Yingjue was involved in a case but didnt specify that it was a case that occurred three years ago.

Sun Shaozong sneered and chuckled. "Based on Lord Ma's experience and what Young Madam had just said, is there anything unclear? That night, the Young Master clearly imagined his wife as a woman who was constantly resisting, and the final act of choking her throat..."

Zhao Wuwei.

He suddenly lifted his breath and called out, and Zhao Wuwei rushed in and bowed, saying, "Master, whats your instruction?

Sun Shaozong still stared at Ma Chunfeng and asked calmly, "Let me ask you, are there any women who went out for the spring outing who disappeared at the end of March three years ago?

Yes.

Zhao Wuwei immediately nodded his head after a moment's memory, "The daughter of Northern City locksmith Zhang, who was 15 years old, fell behind because of her greed for scenery when she was traveling with her sisters. Since then, she has disappeared."

It wasn't until more than ten days later that several wild dogs dug up her body from the ground and confirmed that she had been killed by someone.

Sun Shaozong kept pursuing, "Did she get choked to death by someone?

Yes.

Is the killer a left-handed person?

That's right, that's what Lao Xu said at the time. It's just that there were too many people going out for a spring outing during that time, and it's been more than ten days since the body was discovered, so it's impossible to trace it.

As the two of them asked and answered, Ma Chunfeng's face became increasingly ugly. However, as a father, how could he accept the fact that his son had once killed a civilian girl?

So when he finally heard it, he still stuck his neck and sneered, "So what? Can ambiguous words prove that Jueer is the murderer?

I can't prove anything yet.

Sun Shaozong spread out his hand and said, "But the word suspicion is always undeniable, right? That's why I said I want to take him back to the Central Judicial Office to speak and explain, rather than directly arresting and bringing him to justice.

You!

Okay, enough.

Fu Shi stood aside and saw the two of them getting more and more twisted as they spoke. He quickly stood up and said, "What Yingjue did three years ago is not important at the moment, what's important is how to save him from the kidnappers.

Immediately, he couldn't help but question, "Lord Sun, you've only been questioning my sister for so long, isn't it just to implicate the old case from three years ago?

Sun Shaozong spread his hands and said, "Did Judge Fu forget that I said this could be a serial case? Before the incident, Master Ma became excited two days in advance, and despite the cold weather and sparse pedestrians, he insisted on going out for a spring outing on the 25th.

"Wouldnt it be a better decision to change the day if everything was decided by him?"

After all, Fu Shi still had some brains. After hearing Sun Shaozong reminding him of this, he finally realized and blurted out, "What Lord Sun means is that someone has agreed on a date with Yingjue in advance?

Sun Shaozong added, "And seven out of the eight people who came forward to invite him were the two young servants from the beginning! If someone else came forward in this matter, Young Master Ma might have doubts. Only if the accomplices conspired to invite him, would he undoubtedly attend the appointment.

After hearing this, everyone was excited. After all, as long as the suspect was identified, finding it again wouldnt be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Even Ma Chunfeng hesitated for a moment and took the initiative to draw two portraits for the Central Judicial Office to use as a reference for arresting suspects. After all, he would be sentenced to murder and pay for his life. It was something that needed to be faced in the future, and the most important thing at present was to rescue his son as soon as possible.

Ma Chunfeng's painting level was not low, at least the similarity was six or seven percent.

Therefore, after Sun Shaozong handed the portrait to Zhao Wuwei, he patted his chest, promising that even if the Capital was turned over, he would still find the two young men!

Ma Chunfeng and Fu Shi were both delighted, but what Sun Shaozong heard was that he secretly meant that if they couldn't be found, the two boys wouldnt be in the city.

At this point, the matters that needed to be investigated have already been investigated.

Seeing that he was in the Ma Mansion, he had transformed from a noble guest with a shining appearance to a wicked guest disliked by people and dogs. Sun Shaozong naturally wouldn't continue to stay there to hinder their eyes.

Determined to leave, Sun Shaozong left Qiu Yunfei at the Ma family on standby, brought Zhao Wuwei and the two portraits, and prepared to return to the Criminal Division to gather people and carry out a secret search.

However, just as the two of them stepped out of the study, they saw an old servant approaching with a worried face.

Before anyone could enter the study, he burst into tears, saying, "Master, Master, something big has happened! The people of the Central Judicial Office found... the body of the Young Master in Gulou Alley.

The fck!*

Sun Shaozong was speechless at that time. He had just discovered something, but who could have imagined that the hostages were just...

Gudong~

As soon as the words finished, there was a sound of rotten wood falling to the ground in the study, followed by Ma-Fu's urgent shout, "Father? Father! Wake up! Don't scare me, Father.

Sun Shaozong originally thought that Ma Chunfeng had passed out in a fit of anger. Unexpectedly, he saw Qiu Yunfei coming out, spread his hand, and said, "Your Excellency, you'd better come in and take a look. Lord Ma seems to be out of breath.

Another one died?!

Sun Shaozong hurriedly entered the door to check, but saw Ma Chunfeng lying on his back by the desk, with a small patch of blood accumulating on the back of his head, already lifeless!

Based on the preliminary estimation of the situation at the scene, the old man fainted in panic, and then the back of his head coincidentally hit the bottom of the copper candlestick. As a result

Oh gosh!

He remembered that not long ago, he only said that if his son were gone, he wouldn't be alive either. Who would have thought it would be a prophecy?!

Sigh~

Sun Shaozong sighed and patted the stunned Fu Shi on the shoulder, helplessly saying, "Judge Fu, I still need to go to the murder scene to investigate. This matter of the Ma Mansion, I'm afraid only you can take charge of it.

As Fu Shi nodded silently, Sun Shaozong secretly pondered and immediately sent someone to closely monitor the Ma family's assets to see if Fu Shi would take the opportunity to enrich his personal wealth.

If Fu Shi hadn't done so, it would have been better. If he had truly swallowed this fat bait, the faction structure of the Central Judicial Office would have to be adjusted again in the future.

When Sun Shaozong brought Qiu and Zhao to the front hall, he saw Private Advisor Qi, who was in charge of murder cases under Wei Ruolan, waiting inside with several constables.

Seeing Sun Shaozong coming out, Private Advisor Qi was obviously a bit dumbfounded. However, he obediently stepped forward and gave a deep salute. Even Wei Ruolan had to lie dormant in front of Sun Shaozong, and the people next to him didnt dare to be arrogant in front of Sun Shaozong either.

Private Advisor Qi, there's no need to be too polite.

Sun Shaozong nodded slightly, which was considered a return of greeting, and then asked, "I heard that Ma Yingjue, the Young Master of this mansion, died in Gulou Alley. I don't know if it's true.

It is indeed so.

Private Advisor Qi replied honestly, "I received a report this morning that three male corpses were found in Gulou Alley. I will immediately take someone to..."

Wait.

Sun Shaozong quickly interrupted him and said, "You mean, besides Ma Yingjue, there are two other male corpses at the scene?

After receiving a positive answer from Private Advisor Qi, Sun Shaozong immediately asked Zhao Wuwei for the portraits of the two young servants and presented them to Private Advisor Qi.

Can you carefully recognize that, besides Ma Yingjue, the other two deceased people are from this portrait?

After squinting his eyes and recognizing for a while, Master Qi exclaimed in surprise, "How could there be portraits of those two deceased people in your hands?

Well~

The person involved in this case has died completely!
