Chapter 382 Interrogating Fangzi
Chen Yi now lives here in the county magistrate, so he rushed back quickly.

Fortunately, the speed of riding a horse was much faster than that of a carriage. Chen Yi only spent half of the time and it was enough. There was no one in the village now, but the county magistrate sent yamen guards here.

Although some women and children in the village have never done anything, the women are all aware of it.

They can be regarded as accomplices if they don't do anything, and some older children have also been nurtured and have become governors, so the problem is difficult to solve, so they all brought them back to the county government.

When Chen Yi returned to the village, the yamen servant looked at Chen Yi who had returned in surprise, and immediately stepped forward: "My lord, why are you here?"

"Well, you don't have to worry about me. I just found some other evidence. Come and look for it. I'll go back after I've found it. You've worked hard. Go and get it!"

After Chen Yi finished speaking, he immediately walked towards the son's house in the village.

The door of the house was not locked, so Chen Yi opened the door and walked in. According to the account of the village chief's son, he found what he said was the book that recorded Fang Zi's departure time.

Without any hesitation, Chen Yi opened it and looked at it. Unexpectedly, the records were very detailed.

What I wore and carried with me that day, how and when I left, are all recorded in more and more detail.

It is estimated that I remembered it by accident the first few times, but later I found that Fang Zi went out again and again, so I made it more detailed in order to find the pattern.

Looking at these times, Chen Yi felt familiar.

It seems that I have seen it somewhere, this feeling is very strange, and Chen Yi himself feels incredible.

It would make sense to say something or the scene is familiar, but time is familiar, so I can't explain it clearly, but Chen Yi is really familiar.

After taking a look at the things in the room, Chen Yi took the notebook and left.

Chen Yi, who came out and closed the door, should have gone back directly, but he walked towards the end of the village in a strange way.

He remembered that the village chief's son had said that Fangzi's house was at the end of the village, and it was newly built after he came to the village.

Sure enough, Chen Yi saw a slightly newer house than the others at the end of the village.

Guessing this was Fang Zi's room, Chen Yi opened the door and walked in.

Looking at the surrounding environment and furnishings, it is very ordinary and unpretentious, just like other houses. If there is anything different, it may be that the traces of life are not so heavy.

There are basically no small ornaments, it seems to be just a place to stay, and the living habits of other individuals cannot be seen. Seeing this, Chen Yi was a little surprised.

You know, this Fang Zi has been in the village for several years, and the house he has lived in for so long has very little decoration.

This is very strange, but any normal person, even the most untidy man, will definitely have one or two small things in life, but Fangzi doesn't have them here.

It's like the owner can leave at any time.

So Chen Yi searched and found nothing, Chen Yi had no choice but to leave.

When he returned to the county government office, it was already afternoon, and after lunch, Chen Yi went directly to the jail to meet Fang Zi.

They were brought out by the yamen servants as well. Chen Yi was waiting outside. After Fang Zi came out, he saw Chen Yi. He was surprised, but he quickly regained his composure.

"Let's do it. I have something and I haven't figured it out, so I'll talk to you. Don't be nervous, it's fine."

Chen Yi explained first, and then pointed to the chair next to him.

Fang Zi didn't say a word, but sat down obediently, and Chen Yi also sat down, and then asked with a smile.

"What is your lord looking for me for? About the killing of the village chief? I didn't know that in advance, but what the lord said, I expected. I can say that I didn't have this, but I suspected it. Later I dismissed the idea."

After Fang Zi sat down, he began to explain directly.

Chen Yi nodded, did not refute, but said with a smile: "Actually, I called you out this time because of other things, not because of the village chief. You don't have to be nervous. I'll ask you something and you just go back." .”

Chen Yi ignored Fang Zi's bewildered and wary gaze.

"The first question, who are your parents? I read the file, and it seems that you are the only one who has no relatives in this village, and you still don't have any relatives, and the relatives you confessed are all based on Daquan's identity. Senior."

Fang Zi was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said calmly: "Daquan and I are the same age, so naturally I know what he knows, so there is nothing strange about it. My parents are dead, so I have no relatives."

Chen Yi smiled, sure enough he wanted to hide something.

"Oh? Your parents don't have siblings in the village? No relatives?"

Fang Zi didn't speak at this time, but looked at Chen Yi warily and said nothing.

"Since you don't say it, let me say it. You are not from the village at all. You were brought to this village five years ago. I'm right, so you have no relatives in the village. And you've been hiding that."

Fang Zi bowed his head in silence for a while, then raised his head and smiled mockingly.

"Yes, I did what the adults said, and I didn't hide it on purpose. As for why I hid it, the reason is very simple, because I have no father and no mother, and I was an orphan since I was a child. When I came to this village, I felt like warmth, so I thought Make a home here."

"I already regard this village as my home, so I don't want to admit the fact that I'm an orphan. It's also because of my inferiority complex. That's why I didn't tell the truth. I didn't expect you to be misunderstood, my lord. It's the fault of the grassroots."

What Fang Zi said here is very sincere.

If it is someone else, who does not know the situation, it is very likely that they really believed it.

But by coincidence, Chen Yi had just visited his home, and it was so deserted, why did he treat the village as a decoration for his home?

At most it is just a temporary foothold.

"Oh? So that's how it is. I see. Do you still remember your parents? Are you lost or something? I can help you find them."

Chen Yi didn't expose him directly, and wanted to see if he could find out anything else.

Fang Zi shook his head, with pain and sadness on his face: "No need, my lord, my parents are no longer here, I know it myself, so there is no need to look for it, my lord's heart is taken care of by the people."

Hearing Fang Zi's refusal, Chen Yi thought to himself that it was indeed so.

"Then can you tell me where you are from? The important thing is that you have a place of origin. I'll register it for you."

Fang Zi didn't expect Chen Yi to press so hard that he didn't know whether to say it or find an excuse to prevaricate.
