Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious

Chapter 305: Marrying the Mountain God 27

The constable arrived at Taohua Village in the evening.

When Lian's mother saw a group of people entering the village at the door, she hurried back to the house to wake up Gu Li who was taking a nap, and then rushed to Qi Dashan's house together.

This time, the government sent four constables, but five people actually showed up, one of whom was actually Lawyer Cao, whom the uncles had hired for Lian Yunshen.

"You must be Mr. Lian's mother and wife!"

"Yes, yes, I'll have to trouble Lawyer Cao to take care of Yun Shen's case!" Lian's mother was very flattering.

Hearing that he still called Lian Yunshen "Lian Xiucai", Gu Li felt more at ease.

"It's okay, it's okay. Just as you said in your letter, Lian Xiucai's case is very worthy of scrutiny. There are many doubts. As long as any of the doubts can be solved, his crime will not be established!"

It would be impossible for the county magistrate to keep him locked up any longer.

Gu Li was very happy that things were making progress.

Her uncles were very efficient and found a good lawyer for her. She wrote a lot of letters, and he read them carefully.

Gu Li wanted to talk to the lawyer about her new discovery when a shrill howl suddenly came from Qi Dashan's yard.

"My son!"

It was the voice of the village chief's wife again.

Gu Li and Lian's mother looked at each other and led Attorney Cao into the Qi family's yard.

Next to the earth pit that was dug up at noon, the village chief's wife was holding a mutilated corpse and crying bitterly.

Judging from the clothes on the corpse, it doesn't look like Qi Shitou's.

Qi Shitou was wearing a wrinkled gray shirt today, while the corpse on the ground was wearing dark blue.

Could it be the village chief's youngest son Zhuzi? Wasn't he taken home by the village chief? How could he die here?

Soon, Qi Shitou was escorted out of the house by the police, followed by the village chief with red eyes.

He hunched his back and asked Qi Shitou over and over again who killed his brother, but Qi Shitou's eyes were wide open and he said nothing. He was dragged into the yard like a puppet and forced to kneel in front of a pit.

"Tell me, did you kill this man? Why did you kill him?"

Qi Shitou was held to the ground by the police and did not resist, but just closed his eyes and pretended to be dead. The police pulled his hair and turned his face to the corpse on the ground, and asked again: "Look, did you kill that person? Where is your murder weapon?"

Qi Shitou twisted his neck but kept his eyes tightly closed.

The village head's wife screamed and rushed over to hit Qi Shitou, "Why, why, he is your brother, your dear brother, how could you have the heart to do that to him! Are you still a human being? You are worse than an animal!"

Only then did Gu Li see clearly the corpse that had been held in the arms of the village chief's wife, and she felt a chill down her spine.

The body from the shoulder down was almost eaten away. There was blood soaking the ground, but no internal organs. The body was bitten all the way down to the crotch.

Immediately, there were sounds of vomiting all around.

Even the mother ran away, holding her chest.

Only great maternal love can make a mother hug this horrifying corpse in her arms and cry bitterly.

Gu Li swallowed hard to suppress the churning in her stomach, and took two steps forward to see the corpse more clearly.

But Attorney Cao was quicker than her.

"I go!"

Attorney Cao covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, bent over to the body, and looked at it carefully. Finally, he retreated to Gu Li's side and said, "The cuts on the body don't look like they were caused by weapons. The cuts are uneven and torn. It's more like -"

"Like being bitten by a wild beast?"

Attorney Cao's eyes lit up, "Yes, that's right."

Gu Li turned her head to look towards the east room. The windows were closed and Tang Lan'er was still nowhere to be seen.

Gu Li was a little puzzled. Such a big thing happened in Qi Dashan's yard, but didn't anyone notice that the owner of the yard had never appeared?

Isn’t this strange?

It seems like Tang Lan'er is born to be easily ignored.

But it is obvious that her face is comparable to that of a fairy, how could she have no sense of existence?

Attorney Cao thought for a while and then said, "But I see that the wounds on the shoulder and hip of the corpse are a little different."

"Oh?" Gu Li came back to her senses instantly and wanted to see what was going on, but the body had already been covered with a white cloth by the police.

"The injuries to the important joints were more like being cut open with a serrated guillotine."

Gu Li suddenly looked at Attorney Cao, who grinned and said, "Yes, it is consistent with the wound left on Qi Dashan's stump."

Attorney Cao looked through the case file of Qi Dashan's dismemberment, which recorded the description of the injuries on Qi Dashan's limbs.

Gu Li was overjoyed. The same wounds and the same method of killing proved that the murderer was the same person.

When Zhuzi was killed, Lian Yunshen was still imprisoned in prison.

What a perfect alibi this is.

"Then, can Lian Yunshen go home now?"

Attorney Cao nodded, "Yes, it's getting late today. I will go to the yamen with the detectives tomorrow morning. If nothing unexpected happens, Lian Xiucai will be back tomorrow."

Lian's mother, who had nothing more to say, came back and happened to hear the last sentence. She grabbed Gu Li's hand in disbelief and asked repeatedly, "Ah Li, will Yun Shen be able to come back tomorrow? Is this what Attorney Cao just said?"

Gu Li held the excited Lian's mother with her backhand, "Yes, mother, you heard it right, but you can't say it now!"

Lian's mother held her pounding heart and nodded continuously, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to Ah Li!"

Things seemed to be looking bright for Gu Li, but Qi Shitou was still wailing and fighting for land.

The village chief's wife was so shocked that she cried and cried until she collapsed. The village chief had his wife carried home, but he stayed behind.

No matter how the constables questioned him, Qi Shitou didn't say a word. Even when his mother fainted in front of him, he didn't even blink.

Seeing that they could get nothing out of him, the constable had no choice but to tie him up and throw him into a nearby wing of Qi Dashan's house, waiting to take him back to the yamen after the city gates opened tomorrow.

After a day of hard work, everyone was tired and went home.

But the village chief’s grandson has not been found yet.

The detective heard this and said, "He has been missing for almost a day. The situation is not optimistic. You should be mentally prepared."

The village chief's back became more hunched.

However, the constable still assigned two people to help search around the village.

Before leaving, Gu Li found the constable worriedly and said, "Brother constable, you must be more careful when you are on guard at night, and never enter her house."

"Why?"
