Chapter 154: Patrol
Mu Sheng looked at Lord Wen's shocked expression and asked, "You won't automatically exclude these people, right?"
Lord Wen: “…”
This is really a common misunderstanding, which is probably also called the darkest place under the lamp. People who handle cases will subconsciously exclude them. After all, they are law enforcers, and people will not easily think that law enforcers have broken the law.
"Thank you for your reminder, General. I will arrange it right away."
Now that we have a suspect, this matter will be easier.
Just have someone keep an eye on a few village heads, township doctors and the people around them.
On the other side, the system has also completed the investigation.
"He is the patrol officer of Yongfeng Township. His duty is to assist the township chief, or the township doctor, in patrolling thieves and managing the public security of the township. This guy is an ancient Phoenix man, who married into the family. This official position was also obtained for him by his father-in-law. This man wants to live off others, but he is also psychologically awkward. He always feels inferior to others. He is both inferior and perverted. He plays the role of a good son-in-law at home, respectful to his father-in-law, and very gentle to his wife. He dares not fart, but he becomes perverted when he goes out."
"He always thinks that people look down on him, so he picks on the easiest targets. Widows and women whose husbands are not at home are the easiest to pick on."
Yun Xi understood, "With his identity, it would be too easy for him to commit crimes and escape capture."
"That's right. The detectives who were investigating the case were analyzing the case with him all day long, and they didn't need anyone to tip him off."
Yun Xi did not sleep and waited until Mu Sheng came back. She could not wait to tell him: "After you left, I thought about it again and felt that this matter was very strange. Who is so familiar with the local situation and knows so much about the pursuit of criminals? Maybe this person is mixed in with the people investigating the case."
"I've already told Lord Wen, and he'll arrange for these people to be kept under surveillance as well."
Yun Xi then asked, "Who do you think is most likely?"
"I haven't seen those people, so it's hard to make any inferences. What? Do you have any ideas?"
Yun Xi nodded and analyzed, "Based on the identities and responsibilities of these people, I think the village patrolman is the most likely one. He is in charge of public security and patrols the village all day long. He must be familiar with the situation of every household. In addition, he must have participated in the investigation of the case by the constables. I think he is the most suspicious."
"Your analysis makes sense. I'll talk to Lord Wen about it tomorrow."
"You go now."
Mu Sheng: “…”
He came back on purpose before curfew, and now curfew has started outside.
Yun Xi threw herself into his arms and acted like a spoiled child: "My husband, I'm scared. This man is so bad. If we catch him one day later, more people may be harmed. The victims are all older sisters and sisters-in-law who have no power to resist. They can only swallow their anger when they are bullied by him. If they are discovered, they may not be able to survive. I am also a woman. I feel sad for them just thinking about it. You are so powerful, please help them."
Mu Sheng had no power to resist and said, "Okay, okay, don't be afraid, I'll go right away. I'll ask Mu Yi to strengthen the guards at the General's Mansion, don't be afraid."
"Ah."
Yun Xi rubbed against him, then left his embrace and urged, "Go quickly."
Mu Sheng: “…”
He had the illusion that he was thrown away after being used. Yes, it was an illusion! His Xixi was just too kind. She only thought about the victims and was worried that more people would be harmed. That was why she was like this.
He had no choice but to accept his fate and went out again. Before leaving, he urged Yun Xi to go to bed quickly and not wait for him to come back.
The curfew in this dynasty is at 9:00 p.m. This time is very reasonable for the ancients. Most people go to bed before this time, and few people go out. Those who stay out at night will just sleep outside and will not hang out on the streets.
After the curfew, the guards in the capital patrolled the main streets and questioned any suspicious people. But for Mu Sheng, these were not a problem. The general still had some privileges.
He went directly to Jingzhao Prefecture. After receiving his reminder, Lord Wen went to the government office to work overtime. When he saw him now, he didn't know why, but he felt like he wanted to say something but didn't know how to say it.
"General?"
Why are you here again?
Mu Sheng sighed, "My family heard about this and are worried about the women who were victimized. They are also afraid that if the case is dragged on, more women will be victimized, so they urged me to come and help Lord Wen."
"I have heard a lot about your madam's righteousness before, and I have experienced it myself this time."
Mu Sheng was very happy to hear him praise Yun Xi, so he told Yun Xi's analysis: "My wife's analysis is that the criminal hates women. He must have a bad relationship with the women in his family. He may be inferior to them in status. Or he may feel that he has been humiliated by women, but dare not offend his own family, so he goes out to humiliate those helpless women."
"She thinks that the identity of the patrol has the ability to commit crimes and escape capture. May I ask, Lord Wen, what is the identity and background of the patrol in Yongfeng Township? Does he have a motive for committing crimes? If he has a motive and has the ability to commit crimes and escape capture, then he is highly suspicious!"
Lord Wen: “…”
Before Mu Sheng came, he was checking case files, focusing on the township doctors, patrol officers, three elders, miser and the village heads of Yongfeng Township. The magistrate of Anye County was a man who got things done and had strong initiative. The case files he handed over gave a detailed introduction to all these people.
But perhaps, he did this just to prove how well these people knew about the village and that they were really working on the case. All these capable people together failed to find any results, it was not because he didn't try hard, it was just because the enemy was too cunning!
When Mu Sheng read the case file, he did not see any problem with You Jiao, on the contrary, he praised him highly. Although he was a son-in-law, he respected his father-in-law and mother-in-law, got along well with his wife, had a mild temper, never lost his temper, had a very good relationship with people, and was very serious and responsible in his work.
Normally, a vagrant would have lived a pretty normal life, but this guy was a very serious person, often went to the countryside to inspect, and knew the situation in each village very well...
Thinking of this, Lord Wen almost broke out in a cold sweat.
I didn't think so when I read the case file, but combined with Mrs. Mu's analysis, I felt that the criminal must be him. He was married into the family, and his status was lower than his wife. He dared not act rashly in his father-in-law's house, and he had to keep his tail between his legs. He might not be able to raise his head in front of his colleagues, and he was worried that others would look down on him behind his back. After a long time, wouldn't he have psychological problems? He didn't dare to vent his anger on his wife, so he went to those women who had no one to rely on!
My God, this guy is still working on the case with everyone, and maybe he often gives advice to lead people astray!
Lord Wen stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you, General and Madam, for your guidance."
Without further ado, Lord Wen ignored the curfew and gathered all the people, leaving the city overnight to prevent the criminal from committing crimes again. Regardless of whether it was this person or not, he had to be targeted first.
