Chapter 47 Miss Chen
Jiang Zhou suddenly realized: "So you suspect that Mr. Chen was the first to attack?"
Yan Xiaowu shook his head and said, "It's not us who are suspicious. We checked the whereabouts of Mr. Wei last night. Mr. Chen is the only person he has contacted with. He is the most suspicious. The governor has determined this."
"You also know that our two departments, the Judicial Department and the Sujing Department, are still nominally under the jurisdiction of the Taishou Mansion. We still have to give him face on this matter."
Jiang Zhou nodded.
Indeed, not to mention that the last person Wei Yuanzhao came into contact with last night was Chen Yuanwai, and there was also a conflict between the two sides.
It is said that Miss Chen had been married six times in succession, and each of her husbands died in the same way.
This alone is enough to convict the Chen family.
It’s just that Su Jingsi had his own considerations before and didn’t think that the Chen family was the murderer.
Besides, the dead were not important people, and Mr. Chen had a very wealthy family, which he had already made arrangements for.
The Chen family’s business is vast and their network of relationships is complex.
It is not uncommon for someone to deliberately come to frame the Chen family.
It’s different now. The one who died is the son of Jin Xi Yuanshi, which is a slap in the face of the prefectural government.
While Jiang Zhou was listening to Yan Xiaowu's story, he also paid attention to You Xu and the blue-clothed captain Xing Changgong interrogating Chen Yuanwai together.
Mr. Chen was sweating profusely from the questioning and kept bending over to beg.
The two men seemed to realize that they could not get anything out of him, and with grim expressions on their faces, they simply waved their hands and ordered people to enter the Chen Mansion to search.
Two teams of black-robed constables and demon-patrol guards rushed into Chen's mansion like wolves and tigers.
You Xu then turned and walked towards Jiang Zhou, with the blue-robed captain Xing Changgong following beside him.
You Xu asked in surprise: "Patrol Guard Jiang, why are you here?"
Jiang Zhou said quickly, "Captain, I am invited by Mr. Chen to attend the banquet."
"I see."
You Xu nodded and didn't plan to ask any more questions.
Xing Changgong, who was standing next to him, had a cold face and his eyes scraped across him like knives.
"Invited by Chen Santong? What a coincidence? And why did he invite you? Huh?"
Jiang Zhou was stunned: "Does Captain Xing suspect me?"
Xing Changgong's expression changed and he shouted, "Shut up! Just answer whatever I ask you. Why are you wasting your words?"
"You're talking about something else and trying to change the subject. I think you're very suspicious!"
"Tell the truth! What is your connection with Chen Santong?"
Xing Zhanggong's barrage of questions made it clear that he treated Jiang Zhou as a criminal.
Jiang Zhou hadn't responded yet, and You Xu said unhappily, "Captain Xing, what do you mean by this?"
"snort."
Xing Changgong sneered, "Why? Captain You is going to protect the criminal?"
"Prisoner?"
You Xu said with an unpleasant expression: "Let's not talk about whether he is a criminal or not. Even if he is, he is a member of my Sujing Division and I will deal with him. It is not your turn to make comments!"
Xing Zhanggong said coldly: "In the past, I have no say in this matter, but this time it is different. This is related to the prefectural governor's mansion. I, the Criminal Division, have the responsibility and the right to intervene!"
You Xu was amused: "With me here, I want to see how you are going to intervene!"
"Hmph! Come on..."
Xing Zhanggong waved his hand and was about to arrest the man, but was suddenly pulled over by Yan Xiaowu who was standing beside him.
"Xingtou'er! You made a mistake!"
Yan Xiaowu leaned close to his ear and whispered, "This is my brother, and he is also Mr. Dongyang's future disciple. I know that Mr. Chen invited him..."
Then he briefly told him what happened to Jiang Zhou in Yanbo Tower yesterday.
"What? Mr. Dongyang's future disciple?"
Xing Changgong was startled and whispered, "Is he the one who is widely rumored to be the best writer in Bailu and the best poet in Wujun? The one that the great scholar Li Dongyang said he would protect?"
Xing Changgong glared, glanced at Jiang Zhou, and asked three questions in a low voice.
Yan Xiaowu nodded: "It's him, my brother, Jiang Zhou."
Xing Changgong turned his back to Jiang Zhou, looking around and muttering, "Such a big shot? Oh my god, will this affect his career?"
Yan Xiaowu whispered, "Xing Tou'er, I saved you once, you have to remember me."
"Okay, okay, keep reciting!"
Xing Changgong waved his hand and turned around with a smile on his face.
"Hahaha, I've heard that the Sujing Division is full of talented people. Now that I've met Young Master Jiang, I know the rumors are true."
“…”
How come all these people are masters of face changing?
You Xu is like this, and so is Xing Changgong.
Jiang Zhou said with a smile, "I've heard of the reputation of the Blue-robed Constable. Constable Xing is indeed... knowledgeable and upright."
Xing Changgong was delighted: "Oh? Do you really think of me like this?"
Jiang Zhou laughed dryly: "Of course, of course..."
Xing Zhanggong clapped his hands and said to the black-robed constables around him in a triumphant tone: "Great! Did you hear that? From now on, I will be the upright and incorruptible Constable Xing. This is what the great scholar said himself!"
Jiang Zhou: “…”
It's terrible to be uneducated.
He finally realized that this Chief Constable Xing was also an abnormal eccentric.
He was thinking about the matter of Chen Mansion and didn't dwell on it. He turned to You Xu and said, "Captain, can and take a look too?"
You Xuzheng looked at Xing Changgong with disdain , and said, "We are all family, so of course it's okay. Come on, come in with me."
Together, the two departments not only searched the Chen Mansion from top to bottom, but also gathered all the people in the mansion in the spacious courtyard.
Plan to interrogate and search them one by one.
Jiang Zhou finally met the young lady from the Chen family.
She has a pretty appearance, wearing a peach-pink dress, and her skin is as white as cream with a hint of pink.
She is beautiful and charming, as bright as a peach blossom.
With such beauty, it’s no wonder that she could marry six times in a row.
Even if she didn't have Mr. Chen's wealth, her beauty alone would attract most men in the world.
This series of cases where people were skinned and heart-cut out seemed to be closely related to this Miss Chen.
Not only others had such doubts, Jiang Zhou also had the same doubts.
The Sujing Division has classified the case as one committed by demons.
He had "natural spiritual eyes" bestowed by the Atlas of Ghosts and Gods, and thought that after seeing people, he might be able to see some clues.
But now he didn't find anything abnormal about the other party.
Not only the young lady of the Chen family, but also everyone in the Chen family, he had carefully observed them.
No abnormalities were found at all.
If it was really a demon causing trouble, then Chen Fu could basically be ruled out as the murderer.
Of course, it is not ruled out that the demon is hiding in it, but he cannot find it.
This kind of thing has happened to him before. The Witch and Hong Ni were two examples where he could not see any evil spirit in them.
Jiang Zhou temporarily withdrew his gaze from observing the people in the Chen Mansion and came to Mr. Chen who was being escorted by two demon patrol guards.
"Brothers, can I ask him a few questions?"
The two demon patrol guards looked at each other and nodded.
They knew that Jiang Zhou was now a popular figure in the company, and Jiang Zhou was also a demon patrol guard, so there was nothing to worry about in front of so many people.
