Datang: Changle, I really don’t have any private money for my husband

Chapter 80 The Headless Case

"Master Guan, he is talking nonsense. He obviously killed him. Otherwise, why would the corpse be on the same bed as him!" Apparently, some neighbors couldn't stand it anymore, and they were the ones who witnessed it with their own eyes.

"Master Guan, it was he who killed her. She was his wife. She was very kind to us on weekdays, but this day, he killed her as soon as he came back!"

"That's right, Mr. Guan, you have to decide for the little girl!" The old woman also stopped wiping her tears, and said these words in a hoarse voice.

It's so pitiful, the two old people lost their daughters, and they really resented the real culprit.

However, one must pay attention to evidence in handling a case. It is impossible to draw conclusions arbitrarily based on the testimony of the other party. This is against the rules.

Liu Sheng looked at his son-in-law on the other side again. He was already in a trance, but he was still muttering:

"My lord, it was really not a villain who killed me. I have never had any intention to kill my wife, but, for some reason, I found her dead body lying on the bed early this morning!"

"Lord county magistrate, the villain is wronged, the villain is wronged!"

Anyone who wakes up in the morning and suddenly finds that the wife lying next to him has turned into a corpse will be frightened. Wang Dajiang is not crazy, which is considered very good.

Liu Sheng frowned, and suddenly discovered one of the key points.

"You said that before Wang Dajiang came back, there was no abnormality in Pan's family, but as soon as Wang Dajiang came back, Pan's died?"

A group of people repeatedly said yes, if one person said this, Liu Sheng would definitely be suspicious, but if a group of people said this, even this old couple said this, then Liu Sheng would have to be suspicious.

There must be something hidden in it. The possibility of this son-in-law Wang Dajiang is not very high. After all, the method is too obvious, and there is no preparation for follow-up processing at all, and he is even caught without a fight.

Of course, it doesn't rule out that the other party is calling for a thief, and everything is possible until there is no accurate evidence to point it out.

Liu Sheng interrupted the debate of several people.

"Okay!" Liu Sheng patted the gavel, and the scene fell silent.

Looking at these people in the hall, Liu Sheng knew that he couldn't ask anything, besides, Wang Dajiang was indeed suspected.

In order to appease the emotions of the old couple and others, Liu Sheng made a decision, "Put Wang Dajiang in prison first, and wait for the progress of the follow-up case!"

"Lord County Magistrate, the villain is wronged, she really wasn't killed by the villain, my lord..."

Hearing the grievance of Wang Dajiang who was escorted to prison by the Yamen servants, Liu Sheng didn't change his face, and said to the crowd:
"Evidence is important in handling a case. I can't just rely on one side's words to decide the case easily. You should follow me to the scene of the murder!"

Liu Sheng winked at the county magistrate at the side, and the latter understood it, quickly retreated, and immediately took his hands to protect the scene first.

The old couple and a group of neighbors in the hall were a little unconvinced, but they still didn't say anything. This is a court after all, and it's not a place where they can make noise casually.

Liu Sheng didn't explain too much to them. As for the old couple, the pain of the death of their biological daughter cannot be relieved by comfort.

But he still walked out of the courtroom and comforted the two of them:

"Don't worry, I will never let the murderer go unpunished, and I will definitely give your daughter a bright future!"

All the people watching outside clapped their hands and applauded. There is no way, Liu Sheng's reputation is not what it used to be. From his previous deeds, the people have already formed an impression of Liu Sheng.

This is a good official, the just official of our Chang'an County, and he can solve cases like a god!
Liu Sheng came to the scene of the murder with follow-up staff, which was Wang Dajiang's house.

When he arrived, the county magistrate had already led people to protect the scene, and had already dispatched people to do the preliminary work.

After handling cases with them these days, Liu Sheng and them already have a tacit understanding, and they are also very familiar with Liu Sheng's handling methods.

This saves time by preparing in advance.

When Liu Sheng stepped into the door of the room, he saw that Wu Zuo was already conducting an autopsy. The corpse was lying on the bed, and the quilt on the bed was crumpled up. What was more surprising was that the head of the deceased was missing.

Only an unknown body remained, and it was not even known if it was the couple's daughter.

It's no wonder Liu Sheng is suspicious, after all, he has seen many such cases on the Internet in later generations, some of which appeared in film and television works, but sometimes they actually happened.

Now, no matter what form it is, it has actually happened in front of him. It is the most terrifying sentence, adapted from real events.

This is not the first time Liu Sheng has seen a dead person, and his face will not be as pale as before, but his face is not good-looking due to the smell in the room.

Seeing Liu Sheng coming in, the county magistrate hurried up to greet him, followed by and waited for orders.

"Have you sent someone to inquire about the daily relationship of the deceased?"

"Will the deceased have any grudges against anyone, or is there any obvious conflict between the deceased and his husband Wang Dajiang.

The magistrate said respectfully:
"My lord, I have sent someone to inquire, and I will get the news soon!"

Liu Sheng nodded, looked around, and continued to look at the environment in the room. At the same time, he also engraved the scenes that might have appeared at that time in his mind.

Ruo Wang Dajiang didn't kill his wife Pan, so when he woke up in the morning, he saw his wife's body and was frightened stupid. Then he was arrested by the old couple who heard the sound.

This situation is also very reasonable.

Of course, it is also possible that Wang Dajiang killed his wife and was discovered by the old couple before he could escape, and immediately went to call the neighbors, and then the next thing happened.

Liu Sheng lowered his head and looked at the ground. There were many messy footprints with different sizes and shades, which made him somewhat believe the picture in front of him.

But, why is there only Pan's body here, but no head?

Liu Sheng quickly asked:

"Where's Pan's head?"

The county magistrate scratched his head and said in embarrassment:

"Returning to my lord, when we arrived, Pan's head had already disappeared!"

Liu Sheng frowned when he heard this, "Hurry up and send someone to look around for clues. If you can find the head, that would be even better!"

"Also, you go and ask the neighbors and the old couple who captured Wang Dajiang, if they saw Pan's head when they saw Pan's death!"

The county magistrate understood, hurriedly lowered his head and responded:
"Yes, my lord, I will do it now!"

Looking at the back of the county magistrate leaving, Liu Sheng exhaled, and told the servants in the room to be careful, so as not to miss some key information.

Liu Sheng walked out the door. The house almost smelled of corpses. It was a hot day, and in this stuffy room, corpses were easy to rot.
