Chapter 120: Troublesome Murder Case

Jia Hao's eyes turned wide when he saw that. ' Damn it! Does that mean I can view everyone's information like an archive? Their past and future...This is so amazing!'

Using his ability, he started to look at other people. He realized another upgrade to his Sage's Divine Eyes. It was the multiple Recent Future Points.

For example, he looked at a person and saw a different kind of Recent Future Point.

[ Recent Future Point: 1. Three days later Lang Bing's son will break his leg, making him lie on the bed for a month.

[ 2. One month later, His son would accidentally trip on a pot near his house, finding a thousand taels of gold]

Jia Hao took a deep breath as he continued the experiment. However, after a while, he felt a stinging pain in his eyes, making him disable his ability.

' Ugh, This...I feel a bit...exhausted.' Jia Hao mumbled inwardly. He realized that the Sage's Divine Eyes was using his mental energy or his energy of soul to give better results.

' But I guess I just need to rest a bit before being able to use it again. For now, Let's focus on more important cases.'

Without waiting, Jia Hao walked towards the Magistrate Hall.

" Useless! Everyone here is useless!"

Jia Hao almost jumped from a scare when he heard the thunderous shout. Walking in, he saw Cai Yunhai sitting and shouting at his subordinates.

" You are interrogating him for two days, and you got nothing?!"

" Sir, He has the perfect alibi of that day. And other than that, we don't have any clue regarding the criminal."

" Not to mention, we can't simply torture him as per the rule of Great Yan Kingdom."

" You...."

Cai Yunhai's lips twitched when he heard that. " Alright, You can go and bring him to the courtroom today also. We shall see what we can do."

" Then, What can we do?" Cai Yunhai frowned. " I can issue an arrest warrant. However, we can't use any force on them at all."

" Well, We can't do it openly for sure." Jia Hao chuckled, " But since father in law already knows the culprit, he can utilize...other methods, no?"

Cai Yunhai paused for a moment before tapping his finger on the table. " Well, I shall think about it."

" But now, You need to see the murder case. It's more troublesome than the theft of goods."

" I understand, Father in Law. However, can you show me the files regarding the murder?"

" Here they are." Cai Yunhai passed him a booklet. " There is another hearing at the court. You must be there to see it."

" Alright."

Jia Hao took the booklet and opened it, reading the observation regarding the murder.

A wealthy family in the north side of the city belonged to Mr. Chu. He only had one daughter, who married a scholar called Sun Jing.

And three days ago, the dead body of Mr. and Mrs. Chu was found in their household.

Now, the most immediate suspect is Sun Jing, because after the death of Mr. Chu, his properties were passed to him through Mr. Chu's daughter. So, he had a solid motive for murder.

However, Sun Jing has a perfect alibi on the night of the murder. He was drinking with his friend Cui Bang at a wine shop.

' Now, This isn't an age of technology. Everything must be based on logic, proof, and people's testimony. If two people collaborate well with each other, they would evade most of the crime with ease.' Jia Hao thought inwardly.

Not to mention, the law of the Great Yan Kingdom forbids the torture of any suspected individual to give testimony. And, to keep it sure, the culprit has to admit guilty in the court, in front of the Magistrate, courtroom officials, and the ordinary folks who sat there to watch the drama.

' Now, What should I do?' Jia Hao thought for a moment.

" Ah, Since I can't torture them physically, doesn't mean I can't play with their emotions." Jia Hao muttered with a grin.

As he walked towards the main hall, he saw there were lot of people came to watch the judgement. He found a seat and watched the show.
