When Jiang Yueyang heard the noise and went out to see, she saw an old woman kneeling at the door of the Supervisory Office, with tears streaming down her face and repeatedly shouting "Please, sir, do this for me."
Seeing someone coming out, she quickly glanced at the person and then crawled straight towards Jiang Yueyang who was standing in the middle.
She reached out to hug Jiang Yueyang's feet, but Jiang Yueyang was so scared that he instinctively stepped back to avoid her.
"Sir." The old woman knelt and crawled towards Jiang Yueyang.
Jiang Yueyang said hurriedly: "If you have anything to say, just say it there. You don't have to get so close. I can hear you."
Hearing this, the old woman stopped approaching and looked at Jiang Yueyang with a choked voice, saying, "Sir, my only grandson has been killed. Please help me!"
"For this matter, you should first report it to the county government or Dali Temple where the incident occurred."
From a procedural point of view, the Supervisory Office does not directly handle cases from the people. Otherwise, if everyone comes to the Supervisory Office to appeal, the county government and the Dali Temple can be directly abolished.
Therefore, if the people wanted to appeal for grievances, they had to go through a trial at the county government or the Dali Temple. If after the trial, the victim's family or the person involved still felt that they had been wronged, they could then go to the Supervisory Office to request a retrial.
The old woman kowtowed three times to Jiang Yueyang, "Sir, I have already reported the case to the Dali Temple, and the officials in the Dali Temple said that my grandson committed suicide.
But my grandson will never commit suicide! He is a filial child and will not leave me alone.
We, the grandparents, depended on each other for survival and had survived all the hard times. Seeing that life was getting better and he was getting married, how could he commit suicide at this time!
Sir, someone must have killed him. Please help my poor grandson..."
After saying that, she kowtowed heavily to Jiang Yueyang again.
Jiang Yueyang couldn't bear it and waved to the clerk beside him to help the man up.
The clerk went forward to help her up, but the old woman refused to get up.
She cried out in grief, "Please have mercy on my grandson, he can't be killed like this without any reason!
If you are not willing to take care of my grandson, I will die in front of the gate of the Supervisory Office today!"
The King of Yan was angry, "Are you trying to threaten my Supervisory Office with this?"
Faced with the threat from King Yan, the old woman showed no fear on her face, as if there was nothing to be afraid of anymore.
Meeting the King of Yan's gaze, she said with a determined look, "I, an old woman, don't want to threaten the Supervisory Office. I just want to redress the injustice for my grandson!"
At this time, Jiang Yueyang stepped forward and bent down to help the old woman. The old woman knelt on the ground stubbornly and was unwilling to get up.
"After your grandson's case has been tried by the Dali Temple, if you, as a family member of the victim, still feel that you have been wronged, my Supervisory Department can accept it." Jiang Yueyang helped her up again, "You get up first."
The old woman was a little slow to react and was helped up from the ground by Jiang Yueyang in a daze.
Jiang Yueyang looked at the Prince of Yan standing beside him, "Your Highness, please go to the Dali Temple and get the case file."
King Yan nodded.
Only after he left did the old woman come back to her senses.
She asked in disbelief, "Really? Are you really willing to reinvestigate my grandson's death?"
Jiang Yueyang nodded, "Although I promised you to re-investigate your grandson's death, I don't know what the result will be."
"Thank you, thank you!" The old woman burst into tears of gratitude. "Your Excellency is a master at solving cases. You will definitely be able to find out who killed my grandson!"
The reason why she came to the Supervisory Office to beat the drum to appeal for justice today was because she heard that the Supervisory Office had solved the case of the faceless female corpse.
The county government, the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice were all unable to solve that case, but when it was handed over to the Supervisory Office for investigation, it was solved in one day.
In her opinion, the Inspectorate is very powerful and will definitely be able to help her find the murderer of her grandson!
As soon as Jiang Yueyang heard it, she knew that the old woman insisted that her grandson was murdered.
Next to him, Ke Ming, who had remained silent and had not returned to the Ministry of Justice, seemed to want to say something but stopped himself several times.
After hesitating for a while, he called Jiang Yueyang aside.
"Master Xiao Jiang, the people from the Dali Temple also brought the case to the Ministry of Justice to discuss with us, and we all agree that the deceased committed suicide."
Jiang Yueyang's pupils shrank slightly, "What makes you think the deceased committed suicide?"
"The deceased was hanged in her bedroom with the door locked. There were no signs of a fight in the room, nor any sign of outsiders entering." Ke Ming glanced at the old woman. "Also, the deceased left a suicide note before her death, and the words showed despair, so it was determined to be suicide."
Jiang Yueyang frowned, thought for a moment and said, "According to what you said, the possibility of suicide is very high.
But what the deceased's family said is not without reason. Why would someone who was about to get married commit suicide? "
"I was also confused about this when I saw the files." He paused, "But the Dali Temple investigated the entire crime scene and found no signs of homicide."
Speaking of the crime scene, Jiang Yueyang felt that he needed to go and take a look at the crime scene and the body of the deceased.
I just don’t know how long it has been since the crime happened, and whether the body is still there.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yueyang immediately asked: "Master Ke, when did this case happen?"
"Five days ago, on the second day after the crime, the Dali Temple brought the case to discuss with me. On that day, the Qingxi County Magistrate transferred Chen Zhiyi's case to the Ministry of Justice. I remember it very clearly."
Jiang Yueyang frowned, "Five days have passed..."
Over there, the old woman saw them talking aside for such a long time, and was afraid that Jiang Yueyang would go back on his word, so she hurried over.
"Sir, you have just agreed to reinvestigate my grandson's death. You can't go back on your word." The old woman's lips trembled slightly, and her moist eyes showed helplessness and pleading.
