Chapter 112 Lucky Star
Chu Nanzhi continued to sleep on the small wooden bed just like yesterday. Not long after, she saw a middle-aged jailer with beards sneaking up to the prison gate and whispered to her:
"Miss Chu, the young Chen Feng is a jailer in the prison. He took leave two days ago and was not on duty in the prison. When he came back today, he heard that Mrs. Chu defied the power to plead for the people's life. The young one deeply admired it. You are going to be released from prison tomorrow, so I specially bought a roast chicken to honor you, and I hope my wife Haihan, don't blame the little one for coming too late."
"It's not too late, I'm really ashamed of Chen Langjun's kindness."
Chu Nanzhi looked at him carefully, moved over to take the roast chicken, and smiled slightly at him.
Chen Feng also replied with a warm smile: "Miss Chu, don't be fooled, it's just a trivial meal."
"Then I'll be ashamed."
Chu Nanzhi bowed to him respectfully, and hurriedly urged: "Chen Lang-jun, hurry up and go to duty, don't miss the errand because of me."
"Okay, the little one will go to other places to inspect and see if there is any dishonesty."
Chen Feng left in a hurry after speaking.
After confirming that he was far away, Chu Nanzhi took out the silver needle and was about to test the poison when she heard the sound of heavy footsteps again. She quickly hid the silver needle, but when she fixed her eyes, she found that it was the old prison guard slowly come over.
The old man was quite dissatisfied with her, and his life in prison was more nourishing and happy than that of a god, so as soon as he arrived at her cell door, he began to wrinkle his old face nervously.
He handed the food in through the crack of the cell door angrily, and when he saw the whole grilled chicken beside her drooling greedily, he sighed with some jealousy:
"Ms. Chu is really a blessed person. Every day, not only the master book-master personally delivers delicious food, but also the sycophants of the county government give snacks, but even so, Mrs. Chu can still eat the rough food in this prison. Fan, really makes the old man admire."
Chu Nanzhi couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the words with a gun and a stick:
"The old man might as well just say bluntly that I can eat well."
Chu Nanzhi smiled coquettishly, brought the roast chicken and deliberately passed it in front of him, provoking him: "I think the old man is greedy, tell me if you want to eat roast chicken, I'm not reluctant to give it to you, come, take it on."
The old jailer swallowed again, licking his old face and was about to pick up the roast chicken, but Chu Nanzhi took it back: "Hey, old man, you see that you are very old, you can't eat it at night It's too greasy, I'm worried that you will be overwhelmed."
"You are playing the old man like a monkey."
The old jailer immediately sank his face, glared at her angrily, and left with the food box.
Looking at the angry and short-tempered figure, Chu Nanzhi covered her mouth and almost laughed out loud.
Waiting for the surroundings to calm down, she took out the silver needle again and looked at the roast chicken and prison rice on the table, first casually inserting the silver needle into the soup sent by the old jailer.
But when she took back the silver needle, her whole face turned green immediately: the thin silver needle had turned black.
"Arsenic!"
Chu Nanzhi marveled inwardly, and looked in the direction where the old jailer was leaving in disbelief.
Could it be this old jailer?
It doesn't look like someone with such means.
She wiped the silver needle clean again, and inserted it into the roast chicken in disbelief, but the result made her even more astonished: the roast chicken is also a poisonous thing that has been tampered with.
This is embarrassing, which of the two is the one who poisoned them?
After thinking about it, she quickly tore the roast chicken into pieces, removed some of the chicken and put it into the dung bucket, leaving only some bones scattered on the small table, and then overturned the prison food, pretending to be poisoned and fell to the ground.
The cell suddenly fell into an abnormal silence, leaving only darkness.
Chu Nanzhi squinted her eyes and stared quietly at the direction of the prison door. It didn't take long for footsteps to resound in her ears again.
Moreover, this time she heard a clear sound of the door opening.
She quickly closed her eyes and held her breath.
As the footsteps got closer, she seemed to feel a burst of even breathing approaching her. The footsteps were light and steady without any sense of panic. I'm afraid it was an old world.
When a puff of hot breath was about to touch her nose, Chu Nanzhi suddenly opened her eyes. The man was bending over for inspection. Seeing this situation, she staggered and fell backwards with a hideous face. .
Chu Nanzhi took advantage of the opportunity to kick him to the ground, then got up swiftly, pressed his hands behind his back to the ground with his hands and feet together, and shouted at the top of his voice towards the door: "Come on."
"You lied to me?"
Listening to the voice, Chu Nanzhi recognized that it was Chen Feng, and couldn't help but sneered: "Chen Langjun just returned from leave, so I naturally have to prepare some surprises for you."
"Good day, you sinister and cunning woman."
Chen Feng's hands were bound by her and he couldn't move at all. His arms were sore and painful, so he quickly subdued and begged for mercy in a low voice: "Miss Lao Chu, let me breathe."
"You want to breathe, okay, let me help you."
Chu Nanzhi tried harder while talking, the pain caused Chen Feng to gnash his teeth: "It hurts, it really hurts."
Chu Nanzhi scolded coldly: "If it hurts, confess it quickly, who sent you here?"
Hearing this, Chen Feng began to speak hard: "Hmph, then you underestimate labor and capital too much. Just this little trick will make labor and capital confess, unless you kill labor and capital."
"Oh, you have a backbone, and your methods are quite clever. You give two copies of the poison. I really think that my mother is destined to die. I am afraid that the poison will not kill my mother. Not only do you deceive people, but you also frame it. You are really amazing."
Chu Nanzhi cursed a few times, but she really admired this guy's methods from the bottom of her heart.
If he was really poisoned to death, I am afraid that the old jailer will become the next unlucky blame man.
When mentioning death, Chu Nanzhi suddenly seemed to have thought of something, not to mention not daring to let him go.
At this time, Zhu Youan led a few jailers and rushed in, and was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.
"Quick, Lord Prisoner, take him down."
Chu Nanzhi ordered.
Zhu Youan came over with the oil lamp and took a closer look, and became angry on the spot: "Okay, Chen Feng, you are so bold, hurry up and tie him up."
"Be careful, don't let him kill himself."
Chu Nanzhi held Chen Feng tightly and carefully handed it to the two guards, prompting with a serious expression: "Search carefully for any suicide poison on him."
After hearing this, the jailers began to search him carefully from head to toe, and finally found a small red letter stone in the interlayer sewn out of his sleeve.
Chu Nanzhi took a long breath thankfully, luckily he was not given this chance just now.
Smiling charmingly at the unconvinced Chen Feng, Chu Nanzhi's eyes turned to Zhu You'an who was full of astonishment, and urged: "Give him to the county magistrate, it's best to interrogate him overnight. "
To deal with this kind of person, I think Hu Maoxi has more ways than her.
Zhu Youan nodded hesitantly, and immediately took someone to **** Chen Feng to the discipline room, and sent someone to invite the magistrate to come.
After two nights of worrying and fear, now that the rat feces hidden in the prison have been found out, Chu Nanzhi can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
After waiting for everyone to leave, Chu Nanzhi calmly tidied up the cell that she had messed up. After cleaning up, she lay back on the small wooden bed and prepared to close her eyes and rest for a while.
I don't know how long it took, but when I was drowsy, I heard a hearty laughter coming in: "Oh, Mrs. Chu, you are really my lucky star. A visit to the prison can also help me solve the problem. The pile of problems is really eye-opening."
With the sound of "creak", the cell door opened wide, and Hu Maoxi walked in with a smile on his face.
