Chapter 678
But there was one person who didn't get up, and that was Carpenter Hu. Not only did he not get up, he crawled up to Yang Huai'an and kowtowed, crying, "I beg the county magistrate to be the master of the little girl and avenge her."

Yang Huai'an looked at him with snot and tears, and immediately understood his identity, and then helped him up personally and said, "Don't worry, Skynet is not leaking, I will never let a bad guy go, but I won't let him go A good man would be wronged."

"Thank you, sir." Carpenter Hu replied after getting up.

"Your Excellency is wise." The village chief and other He clan hurriedly echoed.

At this time, the patriarch of the Ren clan turned pale, because it was not hard to hear from these few words that Hu Jie's death was abnormal.

Thinking of this, he walked up to the stupid Ren Dong and kicked him, "What's going on?"

Ren Dong fell to the ground directly after being kicked by him, but he didn't return him, but continued to look at the courtyard in a daze.

Then the patriarch looked and asked other members of the Ren family, but none of them wanted to speak.

In the end, it was his son who held him back and said, "Father, since the county magistrate is here, we'll just wait for the result."

Seeing this, the patriarch stopped powerlessly, and when he turned his head, he met the county magistrate's indifferent eyes, and knelt down in a panic.

But the county magistrate didn't let him get up this time.

If what He Miao said was true, then it is impossible for him to have no rumors about Ren's father's violation of the junior. Since he chose to cover up, it would be considered light to just let him kneel down.

Suddenly the scene was peaceful.

About two quarters of an hour later, Wu Zuo trotted over and said, "My lord, the deceased did not die from a fall, but from suffocation, and a black cotton thread was found in her nose.

In addition, there were bloodstains in the nails, obviously struggling before death, and there were bruises all over the body of the deceased, obviously suffering from long-term abuse. "

The county magistrate nodded and said, "Whoever has a scratch in the village or nearby will be rewarded."

"A reward of 200 taels of silver." He Miao stood up at this moment and agreed.

After hearing this, the county magistrate looked back at her, and then slightly curled his lips in acquiescence to his words.

The people present immediately muttered after hearing this. After all, 200 taels of silver can buy more than 20 acres of land, which is really enviable.

Therefore, someone immediately reported it, and quickly locked three targets.

One is Ren Dong, the other is the stone cutter in the mine, and the other is a gangster in the village.

It was also at this time that He Miao realized that there were several scratches on the inside of Ren Dong's neck, but because they were relatively low, they were covered by his clothes.

Finally, after making comparisons, the target was set on Ren Dong.

Seeing this, the county magistrate muttered a few words to the catcher, and the catcher immediately took the yamen servants into the courtyard to search.

After a while, the head catcher came out with a small carving knife wrapped in a cloth and said: "My lord, I didn't find the clothes, but I found this one in the backyard. If the prediction is correct, the knife mark on the face of the deceased is what it caused." To."

After hearing this, Wu Zuo came over, picked it up for comparison and said, "The knife marks match."

Then carefully put away the carving knife.

Seeing this, the magistrate waved his hand and said, "Arrest."

"Yes." The head catcher answered, and then handcuffed Ren Dong with the assistance of two yamen servants.

The people in the Ren clan also recalled it at this time, and someone immediately rushed up and asked: "My lord, could I have made a mistake, Hu Jie is Ren Dong's wife, and she can bring him benefits. How could you kill someone?"
