  Chapter 1097 Using cases to make things difficult

  In one morning, the Jingnan County Government rang five times, all of which were the theft cases three months ago.

  So many owners came together to complain about their grievances, how could it be possible to say that there is nothing tricky about it. By observing the looks of the people in the hall, seeing that Zhang Xiancheng and others showed no surprises, and even peeped at him gloatingly many times, Zhu Pingan knew that all this must be the ghost of Zhang Xiancheng and others behind the scenes.

  However, Zhu Pingan checked the records of the case and the trial at that time, and confirmed that the owners had indeed come to the Yamen to report the theft three months ago. This was a serial theft case with no clues and no witnesses. At that time, it was a no-brainer case with no hope of solving it, not to mention the "lost" files now.

  The day before yesterday, I forced the prisoners to have a holiday; today, Zhang Xiancheng and others deliberately chose such an unsolved serial theft case, encouraging these owners to come and complain. They are fighting back.

   This is to make yourself ashamed and embarrassing.

interesting.

  Zhu Ping'an raised the corners of his lips slightly. Fighting with the sky is a joy; fighting with the earth is a joy; fighting with people is a joy.

  Although there is no file, there are still transcripts of the trial at that time. Zhu Pingan ordered the secretary to take the transcripts of the court trial that day and read them. Through the transcripts of the trial, Zhu Pingan also has a more detailed understanding of the serial theft case.

  Of course, in order to prevent the "lost" dossier from happening again, Zhu Pingan ordered Zhang Danian, the official of the punishment room, to submit the dossier registration and archive book to grasp the dossier filing situation. Well, coincidentally, one page of the archives submitted by Zhang Danian was torn out, and judging from the date, it happened to be the time when the serial theft happened.

  Zhu Ping'an stretched out his fingers to pinch the missing pages in the archive book, and looked up and down. There were very fresh tear marks, and he couldn't help but look at Zhang Danian with the corner of his lips playful. Zhang Danian lowered his head, not daring to look at Zhu Pingan, sweating profusely, but thinking of Zhang Xiancheng's promise, Zhang Danian straightened his back calmly and looked at Zhu Pingan.

   "Dianli Zhang, please explain to me, what's going on?" Zhu Pingan asked with his fingers squinting the remaining pages.

"This, this, this is because this page of the case file was kept by the former magistrate, so the former magistrate tore up this page." When Zhang Danian answered Zhu Ping'an's question, he was very unconfident, he stumbled when answering, and his eyes wandered from side to side. , not daring to meet Zhu Pingan's eyes.

   "The former magistrate tore it off?" Zhu Pingan couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "Such a fresh tear."

   "My lord, the tear marks look fresh, but they have been there for a long time. The reason why they look fresh is mainly because we have kept the archives well." Zhang Danian slapped his swollen face to pretend to be fat, and explained bluntly.

   "Well kept?"

  Zhu Pingan smiled speechlessly, reached out and flipped through the archives, the inside was wrinkled and torn, how could it be related to the storage.

"My lord, don't you suspect that the humble officer deliberately tore up the archives, right? The humble officer has been in the county government for ten years, and there has never been a day when he has not been diligent and diligent. The humble officer dares to guarantee the head of the project. This page is true Wan was indeed torn up by the former magistrate, and it was definitely not done by a lowly official. Please look into it, the county lord." Zhang Danian's lie was exposed face to face, and his face was as red as a pig's liver in an instant, but the whole person acted as if he had suffered his life. Like the unbearable injustice in the middle school, he raised his voice emotionally, swearing with his head on his head, filled with righteous indignation.

  When a liar is exposed, he often likes to use his voice and hysteria to cover up his lies, and this behavior is often self-defeating, instead showing his lies more clearly and vividly.

   Zhang Danian is like this.

The corner of Zhu Ping's mouth curled up, watching Zhang Danian's exaggerated performance as if he was watching a play, and then said with a smile, "It turns out that Zhang Dianli has been in the county government for ten years, and he works diligently and diligently every day." ’, it’s not easy, then you should take a break, I’ll give you a ‘long vacation’ in a few days.”

   "Thank you for your kindness, my lord." Zhang Danian breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and straightened his back even more.

Hmph, sure enough, as Zhang Xiancheng and Master Yao said, this little county venerable is a foreigner, and Yao wants to secure a seat. How can he leave us locals? If he leaves us, he is a bare county venerable, what a fart ah. Don't look at him as a county official, as long as we hug each other, he has to give in. Just like today, he just saw what he could do, he had to swallow this breath, and even had to use the holiday to win over me.

   "Punishment? Oh, how dare he?! Tell you, the county lord didn't dare to mention it, and he still gave me a holiday." After Zhang Danian returned to the execution room, he bragged to everyone about his heroic deeds of playing head-to-head with Zhu Pingan.

   Everyone was encouraged, and they became more confident in driving away Zhu Ping'an.

   While Zhang Danian and others were fighting together, Zhu Pingan had already taken Liu Mu, Liu Dadao and other six people to visit and investigate the serial theft incident. Because the records of the court trial are limited, it is impossible to solve the case based on this. Otherwise, this serial theft case will not be shelved until now. It is necessary to go to the field to investigate and visit to find clues to solve the case.

  Zhu Pingan took Liu Mu and others to visit the five burglars one by one, carefully understand the situation, and inspect the crime scene. Through interviews, it was found that although the five burglars were located in two villages, they were not far away, and they were all located on both sides of the road running through the two villages.

  However, due to the passage of time, most of the crime scenes were destroyed, and not many clues were obtained.

  Zhu Ping'an visited the neighbors of the stolen person and asked if he had seen any suspicious persons on the day of the incident and in the previous few days.

   "If there is anything suspicious, my dog ​​is more suspicious. Usually, when I meet strangers, my dog ​​bites very happily. But that night was very strange. The dog at home didn't even bite."

   "Zhang Mazi at the head of the village is very suspicious. He usually deducts something like that. If he still buys it for a few days, he will buy meat and eat it."

   "Suspicious person? A few days ago, some traveling merchants came to my house to beg for water, and even praised the water spirit of our cattle."

   "Zhang San is such an honest person, he quarreled with his wife that night, we all went to persuade the quarrel, and when he came back, he lost the sheep"

"That night, in a daze, I heard the sound of a car passing by on the road behind, but I didn't take it seriously. When I woke up, I heard Lao Liu say that the donkey had been stolen. We went to see it, and there were ruts on the road behind the village. , all the way to the head of the village.”

   "Nothing suspicious, it's been a while, I don't remember clearly"

  Zhu Ping'an obtained a lot of news during his visit, and there are also many useful clues, but they are quite messy.

  Considering that the stolen items are live animals such as cattle, sheep and donkeys, the target is relatively large and it is difficult to hide them privately. After the thief steals it, in order to avoid being discovered, they will definitely sell the stolen goods as soon as possible. To this end, Zhu Ping'an visited villagers, butchers, and livestock markets in towns and towns, carefully asked about the trading of cattle, sheep and donkeys during the incident, and further searched for clues.

   At the end of the day, my legs were almost broken, but fortunately, I gained a lot.

  Zhu Pingan listed, analyzed, and eliminated one by one, and finally sorted out twelve suspects. However, because too much time has passed, many clues and evidence have been destroyed. According to the existing clues and evidence, it is impossible to continue to rule it out.
