Moreover, because the Emperor is in this region, there have never been any miscarriages of justice here, the local authorities are all very upright and incorruptible...
Thinking this way, Wu Changcai felt it might be better to go to the county office himself to find someone. He believed that the authorities would definitely be able to clear the investigation and know that he didn't kill anyone.
Then, Wu Changcai hurried off to the county office and came back with the bailiffs.
The coroner also arrived with them.
After careful examination and various traces around the area, the people from the county office indeed confirmed that it was an accident, that it wasn't Wu Changcai who had committed the murder. Nonetheless, the procedures still had to be followed, and Wu Changcai was temporarily held in a cell, waiting for the process to complete before he would naturally be released.
