Chapter 970 Will his uncle still protect him?
"Why are you in such a hurry, Mr. Yuan?"
Song Jiuyuan stared at Yuan Bai and said, "Since Magistrate Mi is useless, I will investigate it myself.
The physical and witness evidence you requested will be delivered shortly. I'm afraid Master Yuan won't have a chance to go home."
Yuan Bai looked like a modest gentleman on the surface, but his eyes ruined his image.
Because those were a pair of eyes tinged with madness.
Jiang Wan couldn't imagine how such a perverted person could maintain the appearance of a handsome gentleman.
Yuan Bai's eyes fell on her, making people feel uncomfortable all over.
"Are you sure there is physical evidence?"
Yuan Bai glanced at Magistrate Mi again, and when he saw him nod imperceptibly, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Of course there is, but we have to wait for someone first. When he comes, the effect will be better."
Song Jiuyuan sat there calmly, and Yuan Bai felt a little uncomfortable with their condescending attitude.
He didn't like being looked down upon like that.
"I want to go home. Wait until you find evidence before arresting me."
Yuan Bai didn't want to stay here any longer. County Magistrate Mi was in a dilemma and he looked at Song Jiuyuan.
"My lord, what if..."
"master."
Song Wu suddenly appeared, and everyone looked in the direction of the voice. He slightly turned sideways, revealing the prefect wearing official uniform and hat behind him.
Prefect An glanced at Yuan Bai indifferently, as if he was looking at a stranger, and then his gaze passed over him and fell on Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan.
"Who is this gentleman...?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that you, the governor, handle this matter."
Song Jiuyuan waved the token representing the Dali Temple in his hand. Prefect An did not dare to act rashly. He glanced at Yuan Bai obliquely.
Yuan Bai finally realized that he might have hit a wall. A hint of panic flashed across his eyes, but he quickly calmed down.
"Master An, please take a seat."
Magistrate Mi became the lowest-ranking official, and he was busy ordering people to prepare a chair for Prefect An.
"What's going on?"
Prefect An sat down in confusion, raised his hand and looked at Yuan Bai who was standing in the middle of the hall, but his questions were directed to Magistrate Mi.
County Magistrate Mi didn't know how to answer for a moment and could only look at Yuan Bai awkwardly.
There was a moment of silence in the lobby.
Song Si couldn't help but sneer, "The county magistrate is so bold that he is still protecting the Yuan family at this time.
My master almost met with an accident at Yuan Bai's inn. How can we not investigate this matter thoroughly?"
"Since you are too embarrassed to speak up, let me speak."
Song Wu glanced at Yuan Bai sarcastically, and then told him what happened that night.
Finally, after receiving the promise from Song Jiuyuan and Jiang Wan, he said, "If it weren't for the master's alertness, I would have become a dead soul under Master Yuan's sword, right?"
"nonsense."
Yuan Bai waved his sleeves and said, "I don't understand what you are talking about. Everything requires evidence."
He was very stubborn. Jiang Wan chuckled and clapped her hands. "As for the evidence, I've kept it for you a long time ago."
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Si went out. A few breaths later, he came back carrying a big pot.
There was a rotten smell in the pot, and the meat inside was so stinky that it almost made people vomit at the sight of it.
Jiang Wan enthusiastically invited Prefect An, "Mr. Prefect, why don't you take a closer look?"
"vomit……"
Prefect An covered his mouth and nose in horror, then glanced at Yuan Bai in surprise.
It seemed that he was unaware of this matter.
However, the matter was not over yet. Song Wu and Song Si brought in another pile of bones. "These were found in the cellar of the inn."
As early as when they reported the case to the police, they had kept a trick up their sleeve. Naturally, they could not hand over all the evidence to the county government.
Seeing this, Magistrate Mi felt shaky and dizzy. No matter how stupid he was, he realized that things were out of control.
He couldn't help but look at Yuan Bai with reproach. Yuan Bai, who was usually gentle and reserved, had lost his composure.
"That's not true. You guys really went to great lengths to frame me!"
"Falsely accusing you?"
Jiang Wan couldn't help but laugh, "Mr. Yuan, if you think this is a false accusation, why not ask the inn staff to come over and ask?"
"grown ups……"
Magistrate Mi looked at Prefect An hesitantly. He knew the relationship between the prefect and Prefect An, so he did not dare to offend anyone.
Prefect An was very angry. He shook his sleeves and didn't look at Yuan Bai.
"Send the witness."
Yuan Bai panicked. He subconsciously looked at Prefect An pleadingly, "Uncle..."
"If this is found to be true, such heinous behavior must be severely punished."
Prefect An interrupted Yuan Bai, and Yuan Bai panicked. His uncle's behavior clearly showed that he didn't want to reveal their identities.
Will his uncle still protect him?
While he was thinking, all the people who were captured from the two inns were brought up.
Jiang Wan and his friends were staying at the Xingwang Inn. The innkeeper had committed suicide, and the waiter Donglai was kneeling alone on the side.
The owner of Defu Inn, along with the waiters and chefs, knelt on the other side.
"Meet the adults..."
"My Lord, please take your time in questioning us, and we will just watch."
Song Jiuyuan glanced at Yuan Bai, who was finally no longer calm, and started whispering to Jiang Wan.
"Wanwan, it looks like we can set off again tomorrow."
"That's hard to say."
In fact, Jiang Wan didn't want to waste any more time, but Yuan Bai was too cruel and she would not feel at ease unless she saw him brought to justice.
The prefect interrogated them, but they all insisted they knew nothing and refused to admit it even when they saw the physical evidence.
After all, it's a matter of life and death, and these people are just stubborn.
Yuan Bai breathed a sigh of relief, "Doctor, they don't know.
It is ridiculous for you to use some so-called physical evidence to frame us!"
As long as no one admits it, what can they do to him?
"Innocent."
Jiang Wan couldn't help but sneer and wondered why Tian Nai didn't tell her.
"Your name is Donglai, right?"
Song Jiuyuan's eyes fell on the crazy waiter, "Have you forgotten how your shopkeeper died?"
"I don't understand what you are saying."
Donglai is loyal to Yuan Bai, or maybe they are the same kind of people.
So he just knelt there defiantly from beginning to end, unwilling to cooperate.
Magistrate Mi was concerned about the relationship between Prefect An and Yuan Bai, so he stepped forward and said, "Sir, I'm afraid there is something else going on..."
"Okay."
Prefect An frowned and stared at Yuan Bai closely. He really didn't expect that his nephew would do such a cruel thing.
No wonder it attracted the attention of the Dali Temple.
Although he felt reluctant, this matter had to be resolved for the sake of his own career.
Thinking of this, Prefect An said solemnly, "Confess everything to me truthfully, and don't force me to use torture!"
His expression was serious and you could tell he was serious!
Yuan Bai was shocked. If these people didn't say anything, apart from other threats, they all thought that his uncle would protect him.
What if even his uncle doesn't protect him?
Everyone looked at each other, and Song Jiuyuan tapped the table lightly with his fingertips.
"My Lord, please be merciful and give me a warning. Since you won't accept my toast, I will punish you directly."
He waved his hand, and Song Si and Song Wu took out a splint from somewhere and used it to operate on Donglai first.
