Chapter 1097: Making things difficult with the case
In one morning, the Jingnan County government office sounded the drum of injustice five times, all of which were related to the theft cases three months ago.
With so many owners coming to express their grievances, how is it possible to say that there is nothing fishy involved? By observing the expressions of everyone in the hall, he saw that Zhang Xian Cheng and others showed no surprise, and even gloated at him many times. From this, Zhu Pingan knew that Zhang Xian Cheng and others must be behind all this.
However, Zhu Ping'an checked the records of the cases and court hearings at that time and confirmed that the owners had indeed come to the Yamen to report theft three months ago. This was a serial theft case with no clues or witnesses. At that time, it was an unsolved case with no hope of being solved, not to mention that all the files have been "lost" now.
The day before yesterday, I forced the prisoners to go on holiday; today, Zhang Xiancheng and others deliberately chose such a serial theft case to encourage the owners to come forward to complain. They were fighting back.
This is to make yourself look disgraced, embarrassed and embarrassed.
Interesting.
Zhu Ping'an raised the corners of his lips slightly. Fighting with the sky will bring endless fun; fighting with the earth will bring endless fun; fighting with people will bring endless fun.
Although there is no dossier, but The court trial transcripts at that time were still available. Zhu Pingan ordered the secretary to read the trial transcripts of that day and read them. Through the trial transcripts, Zhu Pingan also had a more detailed understanding of this serial theft case.
Of course, in order to prevent the "lost" case of files from happening again, Zhu Ping'an ordered Zhang Danian, the prison clerk, to submit the file registration and archive book to understand the file archiving situation. Well, coincidentally, one page of the archive book submitted by Zhang Danian was torn out. Looking at the date, it happened to be when the serial thefts occurred.
Zhu Ping'an stretched out his fingers to hold the remnants of the missing pages of the archive, and looked up and down. He saw very fresh tear marks. He couldn't help but look at Zhang Danian with a playful look at the corners of his lips. Zhang Danian lowered his head, not daring to look at Zhu Pingan, sweating profusely, but thinking of Zhang Xian Cheng's promise, Zhang Danian forced himself to straighten his back and look at Zhu Pingan.
"Zhang Dianli, please explain to me, what's going on?" Zhu Pingan fiddled with the remaining pages with his fingers and asked with squinted eyes.
"This, this, this is because the case file on this page was kept by the previous magistrate, so the previous magistrate tore up this page." When Zhang Danian answered Zhu Ping'an's question, he felt very unconfident and started to answer. He stumbled and his eyes wandered from side to side, not daring to meet Zhu Pingan's eyes.
"Did it be torn off by the former magistrate?" Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but smile when he heard this, "Such a fresh tear mark"
"My lord, the tear marks look fresh, but they are actually very old." "The reason why it looks fresh is mainly because we keep the archives well," Zhang Danian explained stiffly.
"Is it well kept?"
Zhu Ping'an smiled silently, reached out and flipped through the archive book. It was wrinkled and torn inside, and there was no way it could be related to the good storage.
"Lord County Lord, don't you suspect that Beizhi tore up the archives on purpose? Beizhi has been in the county government for ten years, and there is not a day when he is not conscientious and diligent. Beizhi dares to do more than this. I guarantee that this page was definitely torn off by the former magistrate, and it was definitely not a despicable act. Please be aware of this, Your Majesty." Zhang Danian's lie was exposed in person, and his face turned as red as pig liver. However, he acted as if he had suffered a great injustice that he could not bear in his life. He raised his voice emotionally and vowed. He swore an oath on his head and was filled with righteous indignation.
When a liar is exposed, he often likes to use his voice and hysteria to cover up. This behavior is often self-defeating, but makes his lie clearer and more vivid.
This is the case with Zhang Danian.
The corner of Zhu Ping'an's mouth curled up, watching Zhang Danian's exaggerated performance as if he were watching a play, and then said with a smile, "It turns out that Zhang Dianli has been working in the county government for ten years. Every day he works hard and diligently." ', it's not easy, then you should take a rest, I will give you a 'long vacation' in a few days."
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. County Lord." Zhang Danian breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. , the waist becomes straighter.
Hmph, as expected, as Zhang Xiancheng and Chief Yao said, this little county official is from outside. If he wants to secure his seat, how can he do it without us locals? Without us, he will be nothing. County Lord, what a piece of shit. Even though he is a county official, as long as we hold each other, he will be subdued. Just like today, he just saw that what could be done, he had to swallow this breath, and even used holidays to win over me.
"Punishment? Oh, he dares?! Let me tell you, the county magistrate doesn't even dare to mention it, and he still wants to give me a holiday." After Zhang Danian returned to the torture chamber, he went around bragging about his relationship with Zhu Pingan Heroic deeds of head-on game.
Everyone was encouraged and became more confident in driving away Zhu Pingan.
While Zhang Danian and others were colluding, Zhu Ping'an had already taken six people including Liu Mu and Liu Dadao to visit and investigate the place where the serial thefts occurred. Because the records of the court trial are limited, it is impossible to solve the case based on this. Otherwise, this serial theft case would not have been shelved until now. It is necessary to conduct on-site investigations and visits to find clues to solve the case.
Zhu Pingan took Liu Mu and others to visit the five stolen persons in order to learn more about the situation and inspect the crime scene. Through interviews, it was found that although the five stolen persons were located in two villages, they were not far apart and were located on both sides of the road that ran 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 Pingan also visited the neighbors of the person who was robbed, asking if he had seen any suspicious persons on the day of the crime and in the days before.
“If there is anything suspicious, it’s that my dog is more suspicious. When I meet strangers, my dog bites me very happily. But that night, it was very strange. The dog at home was very strange. Not a single bite.”
"Zhang Mazi at the head of the village is very suspicious. He usually deducts money and buys meat for a few days." He drank water and praised the water quality of our cows.”
“Zhang San is such an honest person. He had a quarrel with his wife that night. "
"That night, I was confused and heard the sound of a car passing on the road behind me, but I didn't take it seriously. When I woke up, I heard Lao Liu saying that the donkey had been stolen. We went to see it. There are ruts on the road behind the village, all the way to the end of the village.”
“There’s nothing suspicious about it. It’s been a long time and I can’t remember clearly.”
Zhu Pingan got a lot of information during his visit, and there were many useful clues, but they were quite messy.
Considering that the stolen items are cattle, sheep, donkeys and other living animals, the target is relatively large and difficult to hide privately. After the thief steals it, he will definitely sell it as soon as possible in order to avoid being discovered. To this end, Zhu Pingan also visited villagers, butchers, and township livestock markets to carefully inquire about the trading situation of cattle, sheep and donkeys during the incident, and to further search 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. Based on the existing clues and evidence, it can no longer be ruled out. (End of this chapter)
