Volume 1: Long Night Returns 64, Decayed Bones
Xie Qingyun said: "Then tell me what we should do next?"
"Of course we are waiting for the results of the investigation by County Magistrate Zhang. If the body is still there, it means that the other party is emboldened and not afraid of us finding out at all. Then there must be another reason for the so-called 'silencing'; if the body is not there, it means that the other party has something to do with us.
We are afraid and don’t want us to find clues. Since the other party can mobilize the smelly refining energy, there are not many people in Baojing City who have this ability. The scope of suspects is infinitely narrowed. We can lock these people and investigate them one by one."
Xie Yuandi talked in an orderly manner. After speaking, he glanced at Li Jiran, "Don't you look down on me? The general is just not as showy as Xie Qingyun."
Li Jiran was indeed a little surprised. He didn't expect that this young general could think of this level. He looked at Xie Qingyun with a half-smile, wondering how he would deal with it.
Unexpectedly, Xie Qingyun didn't respond at all, but looked at him inexplicably. He frowned, and suddenly a light flashed in his eyes: "You concealed part of the truth about what happened last night."
Xie Yuandi said coldly: "Lord Fu Zun, it seems that this boy is indeed on the same side as them. Don't talk nonsense to him, just arrest him for interrogation!"
Xie Qingyun suddenly said: "I want to see the bodies of Gao Liang and the others."
Li Jiran did not have an attack, but shouted outside: "Come here, call Chen Dianjun."
Chen Dianjun arrived soon. He was a man over eight feet tall, with a rough Chinese character face, square head, big ears and fluffy beard, which fully demonstrated the tough demeanor of a "Hezhou big man".
"Sir." Chen Dianjun's eyes were fierce, and his aura was not inferior to that of Xie Yuandi. His eyes stayed on Xie Qingyun for a moment.
"Chen Yunsong." Li Jiran pointed at him and said to Xie Qingyun, "I mobilized the Dianhe Prefecture Army when the case occurred this morning, so I am familiar with the case. I asked him to follow you. At the critical moment, although you cannot mobilize the government
Army, but you can make suggestions."
He turned to Chen Dianjun again, "After listening to the advice, if you think you can send troops, you can do it easily and there is no need to ask my government for instructions."
Although the old man has a bad temper, he is very open-minded. He must have realized something... Xie Qingyun narrowed his eyes and looked at Chen Yunsong. This man looked completely opposite to his name, "Please give Chen Dianjun more advice."
"I don't dare." Chen Yunsong said expressionlessly, "Thanks to the Immortal Shi's willingness to help, I will give my full cooperation."
"Take me to see the bodies of Gao Liang and the others first." Xie Qingyun was not polite and gave instructions directly.
"Immortal please." Chen Yunsong immediately led the way.
Seeing the two of them going out one after another, Xie Yuandi's expression was gloomy and uncertain. When he saw Li Jiran simply pretending to close his eyes and rest, he knew that it was useless to say anything. He thought for a while and walked towards the other door.
…
The school grounds behind the government office.
The crowd has dispersed, and it seems that no clues have emerged from the interrogation.
The corpses were still placed on the Xuanyuan platform, seventeen in total, all covered with white cloth.
Xie Qingyun went up to the stage, squatted down next to a stretcher, lifted the white cloth, and his pupils suddenly shrank - this turned out to be a mummy. And even though there was only a piece of wrinkled skin left on the skeleton, his body before death was
His expression of fear is still the same as before his death, making people look like they are covered in skin.
After opening the second body, the third body, the fourth body...the remaining sixteen corpses were all in the same death state. In the last one, Xie Qingyun saw a familiar face, and he recognized it as Gao Liang.
He covered the body again, stood up and looked at Chen Yunsong.
Chen Yunsong looked back expressionlessly.
Xie Qingyun had no choice but to ask: "When did the crime occur? Who discovered it? Where was he killed?"
Chen Yunsong said concisely and concisely: "When I am ugly, Luo Lin, the watchman, is in Yuhua Lane."
Based on his memory, Xie Qingyun knew that "Yuhua Lane" was a famous gold-selling cave in Baojing City, and all men liked that place.
When I was ugly, I was looking for a way home in the west of the city. Gao Liang and his gang had just finished handling a case like that. Instead of going home to have a good rest, they actually went out to drink wine? There must be something weird about this.
No wonder the smelly old man wanted to carry all the corpses back. If the people in the city saw this death, it would only make people panic. The watchman must have been given a silence order.
Xie Qingyun was deep in thought and suddenly asked: "Who is the officer in charge?"
Chen Yunsong said without hesitation: "The husband of Zhuang Ban."
"Call him over." Xie Qingyun said.
Mr. Wang was a short and fat man. He was out of breath after running for a few steps. He came to the audience and looked at Chen Yunsong carefully: "Sir, why are you calling me young?"
"The Immortal has something to ask you." Chen Yunsong said.
Mr. Wang looked at Xie Qingyun carefully again.
Xie Qingyun said: "Did you receive the report?"
"Yes." Mr. Wang nodded honestly.
Xie Qingyun said: "When you arrived at the scene, did you find anything weird?"
"What's strange?" Mr. Wang frowned and recalled, "Apart from the state of death of Lao Gao and the others, there are other places..." As he spoke, his eyes suddenly lit up, "By the way, I found a bag of money on Lao Gao's body, which is enough
Twenty guan! This guy likes to drink wine, and he spends a lot of money just to show his face. Not to mention saving money, he often asks for help from others, and usually he can’t even come up with a qiang of money. The origin of these twenty guan is unknown, which is very suspicious."
Chen Yunsong's eyes flashed coldly as he glared at Mr. Wang and said, "Why didn't you tell me about such an important clue this morning?"
Mr. Wang said sarcastically: "You, you didn't ask."
Chen Yunsong stared at him, and instinctively wanted to kick him, but he was worried about Xie Qingyun's presence, so he held back, gave him a look that looked back to him to settle the score, and then whispered to Xie Qingyun: "Immortal, it seems
The problem lies in these twenty dollars."
Xie Qingyun was noncommittal and made some calculations in his mind. According to the amount of money, twenty thousand yuan is equivalent to twenty thousand yuan in modern society; and if calculated according to purchasing power, it is at least more than fifteen thousand yuan. This is for a head catcher.
, is by no means a small number.
He thought for a moment and then said: "Call Wu Zuo."
Chen Yunsong immediately complied. After a while, two apprentices came to the stage with seven or eight apprentices. One of them was older and bowed to Xie Qingyun.
Xie Qingyun returned the gift and said politely: "Old sir, what is the result of your test?"
The young masters and apprentices all looked at each other, not knowing how to answer this question.
The old man had rich experience and immediately understood the meaning of Xie Qingyun's words, and said: "Returning to the Immortal Master, the bones of Gao Bantou and others are all decayed."
Xie Qingyun was shocked. He understood what the old man meant, that is, the bones of Gao Liang and others had reached the point of weathering and becoming brittle; but even if they were exposed to the wilderness, it would take at least ten years for the bones to weather.
His expression changed, and he suddenly opened up a corpse and pressed lightly on its arm. Sure enough, it was easily dented and made holes. He only felt that his scalp was numb and he couldn't help but gasp... This is what a monster is like.
means?
The old man's cloudy old eyes showed a look of fear: "Ten years ago, the old man encountered another similar evil. Although the blood of that person was sucked away, when he was cut open, there was still some residue; and the senior classmate
The first-class person actually has no trace left..."
"It's not good, it's not good..."
