Chapter 501 The suspicious case


Hearing these questions from Grandpa Mountain God, Li Qingshi's heart trembled, and then he remembered that he was only talking about the difficulties he encountered here, and had not yet reported clearly to Grandpa Mountain God his experiences and changes during this period.

This is just like the relationship between yourself and your background and support in life and the workplace. You can't just go to the other person when you encounter a problem. You have to keep in touch with each other every now and then, at least to keep each other connected. Just stay familiar and have a basic understanding.

Otherwise, you will become unfamiliar without contacting each other. Why should the other party only show up when you encounter difficulties and then spare no effort to help you? This is simply unrealistic. Of course, except for the relationship between biological father and mother!

Thinking of this, Li Qingshi suddenly scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, and then said: "Returning to Grandpa Shan Shen, I am temporarily acting as the head catcher, so this matter is now under my control!"
< br>

After hearing Li Qingshi's words, Xu Bo'an suddenly became curious and asked doubtfully: "Oh? Are you a head hunter? So fast!"

Li Qingshi was previously in charge of the Shanyang County Yamen Prison. Although it sounds similar to the head arrest, the responsibilities, content and power of his work are completely different.

The position of cell leader can almost be said to be a relatively simple leadership position. It is basically a position that can be done by an individual. There is no major technical difficulty. It just depends on the people in the prison.

Therefore, a person like Li Qingshi, who has no experience or resume but has a background, can be placed in such a position. Of course, Li Qingshi's so-called background is Grandpa Mountain God!

But this is not the case for the position of catcher. In a county of the size of Shanyang County, there is usually only one catcher assigned to the yamen, who is responsible for managing all the catchers in the yamen, which is equivalent to the current position of the top police officer. This position is not only high and powerful in the county, but also requires senior professional experience and resume to hold it!

Therefore, it was hard for Xu Bo'an to imagine that Li Qingshi could be transferred from the position of prison chief to the position of arrester so quickly. Even if he was made the second-in-command of the county government like the county magistrate, Xu Bo'an would not be so surprised!

After all, the position of county magistrate is not the top one. There are leaders and technical backbones under him. Even if he is a idiot, he has some ability to coordinate up and down. Even if it is just a simple upload and distribution, he can still mess around for a while, and he can still cope with some mistakes. In the past, at least there was no need to worry about big trouble.

But it’s really hard to mess around with the head catcher. He is a serious person in charge of county security, a real leader. He has to personally handle the work and make corresponding results in charge of affairs. The superiors must have a good relationship with Shangfeng. Tell me, you have to convince the detectives who are following you.

So when Xu Bo'an heard the news, he was extremely curious and even found it a bit incredible. How could Li Qingshi, a man with no experience and no helpers, just go across the industry and start arresting the head!

It sounds like such a job change is indeed a promotion, but it is also really challenging. If you rush into the job, you may cause trouble if you are not careful.

It is a trivial matter to offend others by doing something wrong in this extremely challenging position because you are incompetent or inexperienced. If you get into trouble, or fail to complete the hard tasks set by your superiors, under the feudal social system, you will not be able to offend others. It's a light job for you, and you might end up in jail, or even suffer physical pain, or risk your life!

Li Qingshi heard the doubts in Grandpa Mountain God's mouth, and knew what Grandpa Mountain God's doubts were in his heart. He hurriedly explained: "Grandpa Mountain God, I just temporarily took on the position of head catcher. I was just appointed not long ago. Listen, It seems to be because a chief arrest officer came over from the Qingmu Mansion Yamen not long ago,

Later, when an emergency happened, the chief catcher took his badge and said that he was on a mission and needed to temporarily mobilize some of our Shanyang County Yamen's catchers to assist him. Therefore, many of the brothers who were on duty in the Yamen Followed,

Because too many people were taken away, basically all the police officers in the yamen were taken away, leaving only some old, weak, sick and disabled people who were unable to bear the normal burden of work.

However, the daily handling of cases in the yamen cannot be done without responsible arresters. Currently, there are very few yamen servants in Shanyang County yamen. Due to lack of finances, it is difficult to recruit new people temporarily, and there are no suitable candidates among the existing yamen. The selection went back and forth, but somehow, I was temporarily promoted by the county magistrate, and I temporarily took on the position of head catcher,

Not only me, but also some of my jailer brothers were assigned to serve as temporary catchers. Everyone was quite happy. After all, the catchers were more prestigious than the jailers, and they also had more money and so on. But I didn’t expect that I would encounter them when I first took office. When it comes to problems, I don’t know what to do. ”

It can be said that Li Qingshi had nothing to hide from Grandpa Shan Shen. He even said unspoken words such as oil and water, which made it seem that he was telling the truth.

Xu Boan probably knew what was going on as soon as he heard it. It's just that the county magistrate Wang Chao is thinking that Li Qingshi has the mountain god's grandfather looking after him. Firstly, he can betray the mountain god's grandfather to save face and form a good relationship to retain his favor. Secondly, if he encounters something that cannot be solved, Li Qingshi You can also turn to the Mountain God Grandpa for help. He has this reputation. If it were someone else, he would have to take the blame himself. Maybe the Dynasty would have to wipe his ass for him. Who wants to make trouble for himself?

Ever since, using Li Qingshi as the head catcher was simply the most appropriate choice at the moment.

As for the head catcher from Qingmu Mansion that Li Qingshi mentioned?

Most likely, this was the Yan Xiaojiu whom he had met not long ago.

Yan Xiaojiu came here to look for the whereabouts of Skylark before. Although he failed to take Skylark away later, this boy was lucky enough to successfully identify his relatives and find his biological sister whom he had not seen for many years. That is Chen Shishi, the oiran.

But before the siblings could get together for a few more days, Yan Xiaojiu received news from the police at Shangfeng, saying that Lu Changshan died in an accident while suppressing bandits, and urged Yan Xiaojiu to investigate as soon as possible.

Of course, Lu Changshan was only captured by Yan Shouyi and was not dead. Moreover, he had been released by Yan Shouyi under his own guidance. But he didn't know if Yan Xiaojiu had found out the news.

But this is all a digression. What Li Qingshi is talking about now should be related to this matter.

Thinking of this, Xu Bo'an subconsciously asked casually: "The head catcher of Qingmu Mansion? What is his name?"

Li Qingshi hurriedly replied: "It seems to be called Yan or something. I heard that some old colleagues in the county government call him Yan Captou."

Xu Bo'an nodded slightly, and then he was sure that the Yan Baotou Li Qingshi was talking about should be Yan Xiaojiu.

I just didn't expect that this matter would be such a coincidence, but it gave Li Qingshi new challenges and experiences.

After all, relatively speaking, a county jail chief has much more authority and status than a prison chief. A jail chief can only take care of the people incarcerated, while a jail chief can intimidate almost everyone in the county, including The power is different, so Li Qingshi's job change can be regarded as a promotion.

Thinking of the problem Li Qingshi just mentioned, Xu Boan asked: "Okay, what is the problem you just mentioned?"

Li Qingshi continued: "Grandpa Mountain God, it's like this. Didn't I just say that there will be a ranger in the near future? Uh-huh, he should be called a thief!"

Not long after Li Qingshi first entered the Yamen, he still had some opinions and ideas from his previous identity. From the perspective of official duties, whether it is a grand thief who robs the rich and gives to the poor, or a righteous thief who only steals from bullies but does not bully good households, they are all criminal thieves! Li Qingshi paused for a moment, getting used to the new title, and then continued: "This thief... This guy is so elusive that he has stolen from several wealthy families.

And he has a strange habit. Every time he commits a crime and robs a family, he will write a sentence on the wall of the house: "Grandpa is here for a visit." This is very arrogant.

I tried my best to catch him, but I didn't expect that after interrogating him for a long time, I couldn't find anything. ”

Li Qingshi was not originally a professional interrogator. Of course, he had shortcomings in related professions. Moreover, there were currently no capable assistants in the yamen, and the few detectives under him were all transferred from jailers. Therefore, such a team transformation was necessary. The interrogation definitely didn't ask questions that quickly.

Li Qingshi sighed and said disappointedly: "I originally put that guy in jail directly, thinking about the energy to kill him after holding him for two days, maybe he would confess,

But we didn’t expect that just this evening, more than half an hour ago, someone reported that their home had been stolen. We went to the scene of the theft and found that it was the handwriting left by the thief. < br>


This means we arrested the wrong person. But I always feel that I made the right arrest, but now that something like this happened, it proves even more that the other person is not the person I put in prison. In this case, I have to let him go, but I really can’t. I am willing, because my intuition tells me that it must be him! ”

Li Qingshi spoke unwillingly and waved his arms in a sulky manner to show his unwillingness!

Xu Bo'an couldn't help but frown when he heard Li Qingshi's words.

You guys are too upright, what do you mean? Judging the case based on intuition?

What are you kidding! You are the head catcher. If you decide the case like this, wouldn't it make people laugh at you for your incompetence?

Do you think you are my grandpa, the mountain god, who can rely on fortune-telling and fortune-telling scriptures?

However, after all, Li Qingshi had just taken office. In order not to dampen Li Qingshi's initiative, Xu Bo'an did not criticize him and directly asked: "What do you want me to do for you?"

Li Qingshi gritted his teeth and said: "Li Qingshi didn't dare to hide it from Grandpa Shan Shen. I just took this job and this is the first big case I encountered. Qingshi didn't want people to laugh at it, and he hoped Grandpa Shan Shen could help." Qingshi is a helping hand!”

As he spoke, Li Qingshi kowtowed three times, and three solid sounds were heard.

Xu Bo'an couldn't help but feel a little. Li Qingshi was almost a country man who couldn't read a word before. Now he has been working as a clerk in the yamen for a period of time, and his speaking level is different. He can use all kinds of small words! I have to admire the magic of the environment in creating humans!

Xu Bo'an smiled slightly, this was not a big deal. Since Li Qingshi came to ask for such a formal request, it was a simple matter, so he could just help him.

So, Xu Boan said softly: "Wait a moment. I'll do the math with my fingers!"

Li Qingshi looked happy when he heard this, and said hurriedly and respectfully: "I obey the instructions of Grandpa Mountain God!"

Xu Bo'an thought about it and used the calligraphy of "Fortune Divination Sutra" to calculate according to what he had in mind.

Soon, a clear context emerged!

Then Xu Bo'an's face hardened. Good guy, Li Qingshi's intuition was really good. He was really fooled about this matter. The person he arrested was really the thief who loved to scribble when committing crimes.

As for the case that happened not long ago, it was actually the thief who committed it. It's not that the thief in prison himself has the ability to clone himself. The reason is that there is something fishy about it!

After calculating the results, Xu Boyan was relieved, but he had no intention of telling Li Qingshi the results directly.

Because this is a good opportunity to train him. If the answer is revealed directly, it will not be an effective opportunity to train Li Qingshi.

After thinking for a while, Xu Boyan opened his mouth and sighed openly.

Li Qingshi heard the sigh of Grandpa Mountain God, and his heart suddenly "thumped". With a nervous expression on his face, he asked urgently: "Why did Grandpa Mountain God sigh, but did I really catch the wrong person, Little Stone?"


Xu Bo'an did not answer Li Qingshi's question immediately, but instead asked: "During the time when you were the head catcher here in the Yamen, did you still have regular communication with the jailers?"

Li Qingshi shook his head and said with some embarrassment: "As a chief catcher, I am busy with affairs. There are too many things to do every day. I don't have much personal time at all. Except for the brothers who were brought out to be catchers, originally I have never met the brothers who were guarding the prison. Even when there are cases being interrogated, there are still brothers who come to the court to present prisoners!”

As he spoke, Li Qingshi suddenly came to his senses and exclaimed: "I understand, Grandpa Shan Shen, you are saying that the problem lies with the jailers and brothers in the prison!"

Xu Bo'an said with a smile: "Children can be taught, but that's all I can say. I can only tell you that you did not arrest the wrong person, but the person who committed the crime outside just now is indeed the real culprit. What exactly is it? What’s going on, you have to investigate carefully! This can be considered a test for you! I believe you can do it!”

With Xu Bo'an's words of support, Li Qingshi immediately became happy and said with confidence: "Qingshi thanks Grandpa Mountain God for his instructions. He will definitely live up to Grandpa Mountain God's expectations. Let's go and find out the truth!" (End of Chapter)
