Chapter 742 Is He the Prisoner?
After a while, five or six officers and Lingshan came in from outside.
"Where is that woman?" Meng Bujiu asked.
"He has fainted. Someone has been sent to Ren'ai Medical Clinic." said one of the officers.
"Guard this place and don't let anyone in. Bring the deceased's son from school and the neighbors nearby. Ask them all what they heard and saw."
Meng Bujiu finished speaking and walked to the backyard.
Lingshan and an official stayed behind, while the rest went out to do their work.
Lingshan followed him to the backyard and said anxiously, "Master, the boy I almost bumped into just now had blood on his body. I don't know if it was me who bumped into him. Just in case, we should find him and question him. The more I think about it, the more something seems wrong.
I thought the horse wasn't running fast, so even though he fell, how come he was bleeding? So much blood, staining his clothes, must he be seriously injured? He shouldn't be injured like this, right? And if he was really injured, why did he run away so quickly? Unless he did something wrong."
Lingshan followed Meng Bujiu in handling many cases, and he has always been smart.
I figured it out right away.
Anyway, it's better to check one more person. Even if he guesses wrong, it doesn't matter. We can just find him and compensate him with some money. But if we don't check, what if the person we let go is the criminal? Besides, if he really hurts someone and doesn't pay compensation, he will feel bad.
"Okay, you go check it out." Meng Bujiu nodded and left the matter to Lingshan.
Lingshan was very efficient and he found the answer in just one day and one night.
Coincidentally, many people in the town knew the young man. He either stole buns and beat children, or teased cats and dogs. Everyone disliked him and he was even taken to the county government office. He was Sun Guangzong, the biological son of the third daughter of the Jiang family who was married off.
Lingshan reported this matter to Meng Bujiu.
Meng Bujiu was shocked.
"You said, he is the grandson of the Jiang family?" Meng Bujiu's pupils dilated slightly, and his tightly closed mouth opened.
You can see how shocked he was.
"Yes, it's definitely him. He's gained a lot of weight, so I didn't recognize him. Master, what should we do now? Do we need to notify the Jiang family? Or should we just arrest him and interrogate him? If we don't catch him, he'll run away. He must be the criminal. Someone saw him enter the deceased's house."
Lingshan was a little anxious.
If he had committed a murder and the only punishment for being caught was death, he might have already run away.
There are mountains on all sides, who knows where he ran to.
Anyway, it’s definitely not in Sunjia Village.
"Go to Sunjia Village and capture him, and bring Jiang...his mother back to the county government office." This matter involved a murder case, and Meng Bujiu was unwilling to even mention the word Jiang.
Although Jiang Sanhe is already married, the fact that she is a member of the Jiang family cannot be changed.
Who knows whether this matter will have an impact on the Jiang family, Meng Bujiu can only try to keep it secret for the time being.
He was going to the Jiang family alone.
Ask the Jiang family what it means.
If it is found out that it was Sun Guangzong who killed people, it will be impossible to spare his life. Killing someone must be punished with death. Otherwise, what is the difference between him and those corrupt officials who are all making profits for their own people.
However, it is still possible to change the way of death, such as beheading, cutting in half, poisoning, and hanging, each of which has its own advantages and disadvantages.
The first one died quickly but his body was not intact. The second one not only lost his body but also died slowly. Some people died in great pain and even screamed.
As for poisoning with wine and hanging, the former causes unbearable abdominal pain while the latter does not cause much pain while preserving the body.
Everything is decided by his father, which in disguise means that he makes the decision.
All of this depends on the Jiang family’s intention.
Meng Bujiu arrived at the door of the Jiang family. The sun had just set, so he arrived in time for dinner.
Seeing the Jiang family eating in the main hall, he did not mention the matter immediately, but sat down to eat with the Jiang family. After eating, they chatted for a while. Seeing that he had no intention of leaving, Jiang Shoujia opened his mouth and asked.
"Bujiu came here suddenly, is there something wrong?" His eyes were like an eagle, fixed on Meng Bujiu.
"Well, there's a murder in town. I'm sure you guys have heard about it, grandpa. The criminal has been caught, and it's basically confirmed to be him. But, I wanted to come over and ask what you think."
Meng Bujiu put away his smile and spoke with a serious expression.
"Who is it?" Zhang Jinlan was a little nervous. Could it be that this person was related to their family?
Jiang Shoujia's breathing also became rapid, he probably guessed it.
"Yes, it's Sun Guangzong." As soon as these words came out, the main room suddenly became quiet, and then became noisy again.
"What? This kid actually dares to kill someone?" Jiang Yahe was shocked.
"Oh, Sanhe, I don't know how to teach your child. How did he become like this? The previous beating didn't make him remember. If I had known earlier, I should have beaten him harder. This little beast even dared to kill people. It turns out that he has the same temper as the Sun family. Neither of them is a good person." Jiang Eryong cursed.
"You came here to ask us what we mean? But if you kill someone, you should pay with your life. Grandpa, grandma, you can't let it go..." Jiang Tongmu hesitated to speak.
As Meng Bujiu was his good brother and classmate, he knew what Meng Bujiu meant.
He probably wanted to protect Sun Guangzong, his cousin.
But this is not right.
As an official, you must care about the people. Killing someone means paying with one's life. This is the natural law. If Sun Guangzong was spared and was reported by someone later, I am afraid that if he was not punished, he would not be a good official.
Worried that his grandparents would protect his cousin, Jiang Tongmu paced around anxiously, but didn't know how to start trying to persuade them.
Because he saw that grandma's eyes were misty and grandpa's eyes were red.
"Bujiu, sit down, don't stand." Jiang Shoujia blinked quickly to force back the tears. He stretched out his right hand and fanned downwards, motioning Meng Bujiu to sit down.
Meng Bujiu obediently sat back in his original seat.
But he didn't say anything, waiting for Jiang Shoujia to open his mouth.
"I know that your child has always been on our side. Whenever something happens, you tell us immediately. But this is a serious crime. If he really killed someone, then he should pay with his life. He deserves it. Sanhe is our child. Although we claim to have severed ties with her, she is our child. This cannot be faked. Guangzong did this. Even if we have no feelings for him, we feel very uncomfortable.
He is our grandson after all, but even if he is our grandson, so what? If he killed someone, he should pay with his life! Go investigate the case, investigate it carefully. If he is the criminal, then what should be done? You must not ruin your future for this brat, it is not worth it! Grandpa Jiang will not plead for him. In short, you make your own decision, don't change your decision because of us."
Zhang Jinlan did not interrupt Jiang Shoujia when he was speaking.
What the old man meant was what she meant.
