Chapter 530 It’s really useless
Shen Yuanze was almost on the verge of collapse from the itching.
As soon as he entered the house, Mrs. Fan came up to him with an anxious look on her face. "Yuan Ze, how is it? Did we get our money back? Why didn't your brother-in-law come back with you?"
"No, Qin Shousheng values money like his life. Once it's in his pocket, it's not easy to get it back." Shen Yuanze was upset by the tickling. "Don't worry, my brother-in-law is doing well in there."
Mrs. Fan was so anxious that she slapped her thighs with both hands and started to cry, "Why is my life so miserable? The family property I worked so hard to build is gone just like that. How am I going to live in the future..."
"Okay, let's talk about this later. I'm really itchy right now." Shen Yuanze said as he scratched hard.
Mrs. Fan then discovered that his neck was covered with scratches. "Yuan Ze, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?"
As he spoke, he subconsciously took a few steps back, fearing that he would be infected.
Shen Yuanze glared at her disapprovingly. "What nonsense! Am I that kind of person? I just went to the prison to interrogate a prisoner, and for some reason I suddenly started to feel itchy. It must be because the prison is dark and damp, and I've attracted fleas."
Mrs. Fan was relieved when she heard this. "Since it's fleas that are causing the problem, just go change your clothes."
Shen Yuanze hurried back to the room and stripped off all his clothes.
But my body still felt itchy, and I kept scratching with my hands. The more I scratched, the more itchy it became, and the more itchy it became, the more I scratched.
He looked like a madman, pulling his hair and stamping his feet on the spot, crying for his parents.
Seeing this, the servant hurried to call the doctor.
But the doctor couldn't figure out the reason, so he could only prescribe some anti-itching ointment for Shen Yuanze to try.
But after applying the ointment, Shen Yuanze's itchiness did not decrease at all, but became even more itchy.
In desperation, the servants prepared a large bucket of warm water for him and asked him to wash his body first to see if it would work.
Shen Yuanze soaked in the water, humming and twisting his body at first.
After a while, the piercing itch slowly dissipated.
When he came out of the shower, he felt like he was reborn and the itching on his body was gone.
Shen Yuanze was dressed neatly and breathed a sigh of relief.
It was really weird. He was itchy for no reason just now, and he almost died of itching.
It seems that there are unclean things in the cell. It is better to go to such places as little as possible in the future.
Seeing that her brother was better, Mrs. Fan continued the conversation, "Yuan Ze, what exactly is going on? Can we get our money back?"
Shen Yuanze shook his head helplessly and sighed, "Sister, Qin Shousheng is like a Pixiu, he just eats and doesn't poop. How can he easily spit out the meat in his mouth? Why not just forget it!"
"You're talking about making it sound easy. More than ten boxes of treasure are the entire wealth of the Fan family. Even if Qin Shousheng is the county magistrate, he can't confiscate my property for no reason. I'm going to Ningjing to complain to the prefect. I don't believe that there is no law in the Great Ning Dynasty."
"Alright, sister. It's useless to complain to the government if the people don't fight against the government. As the saying goes, if you have green mountains, you won't have to worry about firewood. The Fan family is so big, only their money was confiscated, but their land is still there. They will make a comeback one day. Go back and wait for my news. I will try my best to get the deeds to the farm and shop back."
"Okay then!" Mrs. Fan was at a loss for a moment and had to nod in agreement.
After seeing Mrs. Fan off, Shen Yuanze thought that Qin Shousheng had already given an order, asking him to make Chen Qingqing confess today no matter what method he used.
Now that the task has not been completed, how should I explain it to him?
Shen Yuanze couldn't help but frown. The prison was not a place for people to stay. What if he felt itchy all over?
If I don't go to the trial, it will be troublesome if Qin Shousheng blames me. Forget it, I'd better go and see what he says first!
Having made up his mind, he went to the inner house of the county government office again and reported to Qin Shousheng.
"Sir, I have just tortured Chen Qingqing severely, but she has always gritted her teeth and refused to confess. It seems that this case will not be closed for a while."
"How can you not even handle such a small matter? You're really useless." Qin Shousheng glared at him in dissatisfaction. "In the past, no matter what kind of prisoner was sent to the prison, the case files could be sorted out within a day. Chen Qingqing is just a woman, why is it so difficult? Go back quickly. When you can pry her mouth open, come see me again."
"Sir, although Chen Qingqing is a woman, she is very stubborn. She has been beaten black and blue by the jailers these days, but she still refuses to confess. She even has the strength to break free from the ropes and fight with me!"
"Is there such a thing?" Qin Shousheng frowned slightly, seeming a little unbelievable.
Before Shen Yuanze could speak, Chen Ruolan beside him quickly took over the conversation, "Master, what County Magistrate Shen said is true. Chen Qingqing is indeed different from ordinary people. She used to be timid and had no opinions of her own. She looked silly.
But since a year ago, I don't know what evil has befallen her. She's become a completely different person. Not only can she treat illnesses, she's also learned how to make sugar. Someone like her must be extremely cruel. In my opinion, she must be eliminated as soon as possible to prevent any accidents."
"This isn't a human, it's a monster." Qin Shousheng nodded repeatedly. "Madam is absolutely right. A monster like this must be dealt with quickly. If she escapes, it will be troublesome."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Shen Yuanze and said, "Whether you persuade me with kind words or use coercion or bribery, we must sort out the case file today so that we can report it to the Ministry of Justice as soon as possible."
"Sir, it's not that I don't want to go, but it's useless even if I go. Chen Qingqing is really stubborn!" Shen Yuanze was scared by the tickling, and he didn't want to suffer in prison again.
Qin Shousheng rolled his eyes at him angrily. "You're a useless piece of shit. You can't even handle a woman. What use is there for me as the county magistrate? Hurry up and get out of here. If you dare to waste time any more, I'll remove you from your position."
"This..." Shen Yuanze hesitated. He didn't know whether to leave or stay. He glanced at Chen Ruolan with a look of help.
Chen Ruolan knew how powerful Chen Qingqing was. As the saying goes, delays can lead to changes, and the longer the night, the more dreams there are.
In order to prevent accidents from happening, Chen Qingqing must be killed as soon as possible, otherwise he would feel uneasy.
Thinking of this, she hurriedly said, "Master, since Chen Qingqing refuses to plead guilty, why not execute her first and report her later to avoid any more trouble."
Qin Shousheng shook his head upon hearing this. "No, no, the court has regulations that require caution in punishment and execution. Criminal cases must be reported to higher levels and only after review by the Ministry of Justice can the death penalty be used. If I really kill the criminal now and the court investigates, I will be dismissed from my post and severely punished."
"Is it really that serious?" Chen Ruolan said with a hint of displeasure. "How long do we have to wait? If she refuses to confess, will we never kill her?"
"Don't worry, Madam. I don't believe that girl is really so stubborn. One day she will confess." Qin Shousheng smiled and comforted...
