Wang Quanan was startled for a moment before reacting, ”The suspect that was interrogated by the Fourth Miss, is it him too?”

Su Li nodded.

Song Lai finally became proud, ”I told you, butcher Zhu must be the culprit, to let Hu Guangzhuo die, and then dig out the grave and peel off the skin.”

”How can I be sure? Is there evidence or material evidence? ” Su Li unhappily patted his head, ”It's best not to think based on pure imagination. Unless you have a certain amount of evidence to support your assumption.”

Song Lai immediately became listless, ”Fourth Miss's words are correct. I was too proud.”

Since their target was the same person, the three of them rode on a horse carriage. Together with dozens of officials, they majestically headed towards the west side of the city where the butcher's shop was.

It was the Shin hour, and the meat was almost sold, and few people came to buy it.

Butcher Zhu was lean and bare-chested, removing bones from behind him.

His movements were extremely quick, and his hands were extremely nimble as they separated the flesh and blood between his palms.

However, there were no scratches on his bare upper body.

A beautiful woman wearing plain clothes followed by the side as she sold meat. As she busied herself, she didn't put on any airs.

Seeing so many people appear in front of the meat shop, the butcher stopped his actions and asked in surprise, ”My lords, do you want to buy meat?”

Su Li took a close look at him, whether it was the length of the legs or the height of the body, everything matched the clues. He had been in the army before, and now that he was selling meat for a living, coupled with the conflict between him and the Shopkeeper Hu, he was even more suspicious.

But the fact that there were no scratches on him still made her suspicious.

Wang Quanan gestured for the official to go forward to capture him.

Su Li said, ”Magistrate Wang, before taking him away, can you let the officials take him for an examination? ”Let's see if there are any scratches on his body.”

Wang Quanan nodded, he walked up a few steps and instructed the officials.

Su Li then walked towards the completely stunned Mrs. Zhu, ”There are some things related to Hu Family. I want to ask you a question, do you want to say it here? Or to the rear hall? ”

When Mrs. Zhu heard the two words ”Hu Family”, his face immediately turned white.

”Go …” ”To the back hall.”

Su Li indicated for Song Lai to wait outside. After the results of the examination were out, he would go to the rear hall to inform her.

The two of them entered the inner room of the rear hall. Once the door closed, Mrs. Zhu immediately fell to his knees with a plop, his tears pouring down like rain.

”I know that it goes against worldly ethics, but my husband has no other choice. If I lose the opportunity to feed the meat to the restaurant, it will be difficult for the butcher to continue the business. My wife is in bad health and is waiting for the money to treat her illness.”

”How many times did the Shopkeeper Hu force you guys?” Su Li frowned, although she had never seen Shopkeeper Hu a few times, but she never thought that he would look so dirty on the outside, but he was actually so despicable on the inside.

”Dozens of times …” The Mrs. Zhu covered his face as he choked with emotion, ”If we were to investigate this matter, I would admit it if we were to dip him in the pig cage or cut his hair, but my husband is innocent. He did not agree, but I just couldn't bear to see him suffer, so I agreed on his behalf.”

Su Li was upset, but he had to continue investigating.

”After your husband returned from the army, did he bring back a few military knives?”

”I did bring two of them with me. After we came to the capital to do the meat shop business, I kept the military blade in the storage room. Why is Fourth Miss asking me this?”

Two, in line with the one the Skinner had left at the scene.

Su Li still had to ask, but then the door to the inner room was knocked, and Song Lai's voice sounded from outside.

”Fourth Miss …”

Su Li looked at Mrs. Zhu who was kneeling on the ground, turned and opened the door a crack, ”What's the situation like?”

Song Lai shook his head and said in a low voice, ”There are no scratches.”

Again!

Su Li sighed, and quickly calmed his lost emotions, ”Go and tell Magistrate Wang, he told him that butcher Zhu's two military blades are in the warehouse, go and check if they are still there.”

”Yes.”

Song Lai left and closed the door.
