Chapter 1268 He Is Dead, He Is Finally Dead!
In the narrow, dark cell, the wet floor exuded a wet stench.
Passing by dilapidated cells, you can occasionally see pairs of eyes with strange lights peeking out from the edges of the cells.
Zhang Mazi was very scared. Even though he was a gangster and a gangster, he had never been to jail since he was born.
His wife was following behind him without saying a word. He didn't know what she was thinking. After all, this time, this woman was dead!
Thinking of the five hundred taels of silver that he had negotiated, his fear of prison immediately disappeared. That was five hundred taels! With those five hundred taels, what kind of woman could he want?
The cell leader in front was still leading the way. The cell in Xijin County was in disrepair for a long time. The ground was bumpy and prone to water accumulation. Every time he stepped on it, he would get splashed all over his trousers. The cell leader walked very fast and turned back after taking two steps. He yelled at the people following him: "Hurry up!"
Zhang Mazi hurriedly followed, and his wife also took two quick steps.
"Bang." The iron partition door was opened, and the prison head leaned to the side: "You, go in." He was referring to Zhang Mazi's wife.
With her head lowered and her hair blocking the light and shadow on both sides, Zhang Mazi's daughter-in-law stepped in silently, her steps so fast that the uppers of her shoes were soaked by the water on the ground.
After she entered, the iron door was locked from the outside, and the prison boss turned around and walked towards the branch road.
Zhang Mazi glanced at his wife, who had already walked to the corner of the cell, squatted down and sat down, with her long hair hanging on her chest.
"Ajuan..." Zhang Mazi called out. He had been following him for several years and was about to die. He wanted to say a few more words to her.
But his wife didn't move, let alone raise her head. She was as quiet as if she had melted into the darkness.
"What are you doing? Hurry up!" The cell leader in front saw Zhang Mazi dragging his feet and shouted at the top of his lungs.
Zhang Mazi did not dare to stay any longer, and glanced at her daughter-in-law again. Finally, she could only say hastily: "You can go in peace. I will order the best coffin for you later. Your whole family was about to starve to death. It was my mother." I’ll take ten taels of silver to save your whole family. Your life belongs to my family, so don’t complain, just treat it as repayment of your debt.”
Zhang Mazi's wife moved, and her eyes covered by her hair looked out faintly.
It's a pity that Zhang Mazi didn't have time to look anymore. The prison boss over there was already about to take action, so he had no choice but to follow him.
The men's cells were different from the women's cells. After walking for a while, Zhang Mazi was imprisoned in one of them.
The air in the dungeon was really bad. The cell of Zhang Mazi's daughter-in-law had no windows, but Zhang Mazi's cell did have a small transom, about the size of a palm, which was only enough for breathing, but not for anything else.
When Liu Wei arrived with his men, it was already half an hour later. The yamen officer hurriedly told the prison guard that something might have happened. The prison guard didn't know why, but he still immediately led them.
After passing through the forks in the road, when they arrived at Zhang Mazi's cell, from the outside, everyone saw Zhang Mazi sleeping on the straw, with his face facing the wall.
The cell leader touched the key and said, "Look, what can happen? This is not a good thing."
Liu Wei frowned, looked at Zhang Mazi's back, pursed her lips and said, "Open the door quickly."
The prison boss quickly unlocked the door and called out: "Zhang Mazi! Get up!"
The man on the straw didn't move, quietly maintaining the same posture.
Liu Wei already knew something was wrong, so she silently stepped forward and patted Zhang Mazi on the shoulder. Suddenly, the man who had been sleeping soundly collapsed.
Zhang Mazi was turned over, and his face with seven holes bleeding was reflected in front of everyone.
"Ah." The cell leader and the yamen servant took a breath together.
Xiao Li was originally standing at the back, but when he saw this, he walked to the front, stayed close to his mother, and whispered, "It's poisoning."
The blue and white face, the black eye circles, and the seven holes glowing with black blood are exactly the reaction after being poisoned by rat poison.
"Where is his wife?" Liu Wei turned around and asked the cell leader.
The prison boss was so shocked that he took a long time to calm down before pointing in another direction with trembling hands.
Liu Wei pushed the person away and ran in that direction. Xiao Li followed her mother, and the prison boss and the government servant followed behind.
When everyone rushed to the cell where Zhang Mazi's wife was, they saw Zhang Mazi's wife motionless at the edge of the dark cell with her head against the wall, not knowing what she was doing.
"Isn't he also dead?" The cell leader was so frightened that he almost cried.
Liu Wei said: "Open the lock first."
The prison boss hurriedly opened the lock, because it was too dark inside and they couldn't see clearly whether Zhang Mazi's wife had her eyes open or closed, so they could only approach slowly.
And just when Liu Wei was about to reach out and touch Zhang Mazi's wife's shoulder, the other party moved and her neck stood up.
"Is he dead?" A hoarse voice came out of his throat. Zhang Mazi's wife Sitting up straighter, then stood up from the ground in a heavy voice.
Liu Wei took half a step back and looked at her.
Zhang Mazi's wife slowly walked out, walked out of the darkest corner, and walked to a slightly brighter place. Only then did everyone realize that there was a ferocious smile on her face.
His eyes were bulging, his skin was pale and colorless, his lips had scarlet cracks, but the corners of his mouth were raised high.
"Dead? Really? Really?" She walked forward step by step, not very fast, but with every step she took, her whole body was shaking like crazy for some reason!
The cell boss and the officer were so frightened by the woman's crazy expression that they backed away step by step. Finally, they exited the cell and stood shivering at the door. Liu Wei and Xiao Li did not leave. They just stood there and waited until Zhang Mazi's wife left. When they were in front of them, Xiao Li rushed forward, grabbed the other person's hand, and forcefully opened her fist.
"Rat poison! Her hands smell like rat poison!"
Zhang Mazi’s wife laughed again, from a secret smile to a roaring laughter. Finally, tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, and she laughed convulsively and cried: "Dead...dead...I killed him... I finally killed him..."
Liu Wei saw that she was not in a good mood, so he hurriedly walked over, held her shoulders, and asked her to look at him: "Tell me, how did you kill him?"
Zhang Mazi's wife stared at Liu Wei, her eyes blank, and murmured: "I walked behind him... I blew the medicine... into his ears... He didn't know... He didn't know anything... Hahaha... He doesn't have me in his heart... He only knows about money... Haha... He is dead... He is finally dead..."
Liu Wei opened the hand of Zhang Mazi's daughter-in-law again, and sure enough, she saw that there were powdery particles of extremely poisonous rat poison in the gaps between her fingers. If the powdery particles were like this, they could indeed be blown into people's ears. She noticed that her ears were itchy. Reaching for it with your fingers will only speed up the onset of the poison.
"Did you buy such a powerful poison?" Liu Wei asked again.
Zhang Mazi's daughter-in-law leaned forward, leaned into Liu Wei's ear, and exhaled: "It's... madam... gave it to me."
