Zhou Yang's face was buried so that no one could see his expression, but his voice was still confused, "I … I used something. Yes, there were a lot of bamboos on the terrace. I used the flexibility of the bamboos to swing. There were also trees. There were a lot of big willows planted on the riverbank. I first jumped on the willows, then jumped into the river."
Ning Shu had already seen through him. She slowly shook her head, "Impossible. I checked every single one of those bamboos. I didn't find any traces of the leverage you mentioned. As for the willows you mentioned, tell me which one you jumped from. Jumping from such a high place, there must be traces of broken branches. I will immediately send people to search for it. "
Being completely forced into a dead end by Ning Shu, Zhou Xiang's mouth opened and closed, as if it was gagged. For a long time, he was unable to speak again, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. After a long time, he weakly and vaguely said, "At that time, I was panicking after killing someone, and the sky was completely dark. As for the specifics, I … I don't remember clearly."
Ning Shu stood up and walked in front of him. She looked at him deeply and said, "Is it because you can't remember clearly or because you can't make up a lie anymore? Zhou Yang, you said that you did this case alone, but you can't hide from this point. Now, there are only two possibilities. Either you conspired with others, or the murderer isn't you at all. "
"It's me! I did it all by myself! " Zhou Yang raised his knees excitedly. He wanted to rush to Ning Shu, but the runner next to him immediately pressed him down. This seemingly simple and honest young man was like a crazy wild bull. His eyes were red as he shouted, "Aren't you in a hurry to solve the case? Aren't you looking for the murderer? It's me! Don't implicate others! "
Ning Shu saw pity in him. She said, "I'll ask you one last question. Do you hate the envoy so much that you pierced nine holes in his body?"
"Yes, I hate him. I want to cut him into pieces!"
Ning Shu had already understood what was going on. She sighed softly, "You're wrong. There weren't nine holes in his body, there were eight. Are you going to say that you were too emotional to remember? You spent so much effort to kill the person you hated the most in your life. You must have remembered every stab you made on him. How could you be wrong? In addition, you said that you drugged him and stabbed him with a knife that you had prepared beforehand. However, you neglected one point from the beginning to the end: the real cause of death of the envoy was not a knife wound. Zhou Yang, stop lying. You didn't kill them. You turned yourself in just to take the blame for E 'er. However, not only will you not be able to save her, you will also be implicated. "
The deputy couldn't take it anymore and immediately retorted, "How could he not be the killer! Then what's with this pair of shoes? Also, he was once an apprentice in a locksmith shop, and you deliberately sneaked into the Fang Seeking Station. These are all traceable! Even if he wasn't the one who killed them, he was still an accomplice! I understand now. Li E 'er must have conspired with Zhou Yang. Zhou Yang opened the lock and Li E' er killed him. After killing him, Zhou Yang left and Li E 'er locked the door. Then, she disguised herself as a girl from the Fang Seeking Station and sneaked out! "
No matter what the deputy said, Zhou Yang only clenched his teeth and insisted that there was no accomplice. He did it all alone.
He was so stubborn and refused to reveal anything else. Ning Shu's throat was smoking, but there was nothing she could do. She could only let the bailiffs take him away for a trial.
When Zhou Yang was handcuffed and taken out of the court, Tan Siwei thought for a while and asked, "Why did you go to Dong Laishun to work a month ago?"
Zhou Yang, who had been charging forward like a war horse, twitched his eyes. After a long time, he replied, "To earn money."
"We were supposed to get married next month, but my family has always been poor. I couldn't give Li E 'er a lively and beautiful wedding. I couldn't even afford a decent bridal head ornament, so I could only paint the outside of the copper jewelry to replace gold. Although Li E 'er didn't say it, I felt guilty. Coincidentally, I heard that Dong Laishun was recruiting workers. Although the reputation there wasn't good, the salary was high, so I went. I thought that I would only work for two months. Even if I couldn't earn a full set of gold head ornaments, I could at least buy a gold hairpin. I couldn't let her suffer too much. On the night of the seventh day of the fifth month, Li E 'er went to the Fang Seeking Station to deliver flowers to Miss Susu. I happened to meet her. We hadn't seen each other for a few days, so I pulled her to a corner and secretly talked for a while … "
Drip, a tear finally fell from his reddened eyes. Then, he raised his rough hand and slapped his own face. "Actually, it's all my fault! If I hadn't pulled Li E 'er to talk, she might not have met that bastard … It's all my fault! It's all my fault! I'm the one who deserves to die the most! "
It was just a slap, but it left a bloody palm on his face. It represented his deep regret. Huimo's nose turned sour when he saw this. He couldn't bear to look away.
