Liang Meng was convinced and was about to flatter him when he saw Bai Yue standing on tiptoes, carefully taking something from a branch nearby and looking at the sun.
"What is this?" Jian Yu also looked over and saw Bai Yue holding a small tuft of tangled black silk, like hair, in his hand.
"What I found on the tree is probably the murderer's hair. I just saw the victim's hair, which was soft and black." Bai Yue said, "There are many branches here, and it is easy to get caught when walking around."
In the past, she would never have used her hands to pick up such an important evidence, but it didn't matter now. Anyway, in this era, there were no instruments that could be tested and would not contaminate the evidence.
My hair is a little yellow, a little dry and frizzy.
Jian Yu said: "Liang Meng, take people to follow the footprints and see where this forest is."
Liang Meng responded and was about to leave when Bai Yue shouted from behind: "Wait a minute."
Liang Meng hurriedly stopped.
"You should pay special attention to people like this." Bai Yue said: "Male, about seven feet four tall, forty to fifty years old, strong and bad-tempered. He may wear more clothes than others, or he may wear less clothes than others.
His voice is hoarse, his eyes are bulging, he may have a skin disease, and he wraps himself up very tightly..."
Liang Meng was stunned and couldn't help but ask: "Did you see the murderer?"
The victim didn't wake up either. Everyone looked at him and couldn't even hum. There was no way he could have secretly said anything to Bai Yue.
"Where did I see the murderer? This is inferred from the traces left at the scene." Bai Yue took out a handkerchief from his arms and wrapped a few hairs: "From the size of the footprints, we can infer his height."
This is not surprising, many experienced police officers can deduce it, and Jian Yu can also do it.
"You said the murderer was between forty and fifty years old. This is because in the first case twenty-three years ago, the victim was a strong man. But now, twenty-one years later, the murderer can still easily carry a man.
, which means he is still in his prime."
"Yes." Bai Yue agreed: "The murderer was not too young back then, and he is not too old now, so I think the range between forty and fifty is the most likely."
If you were twenty or thirty back then, you are forty or fifty now. No matter how young or old you are, it is difficult for you to have such physical strength.
People in this era have short lifespans. It has been rare since ancient times for people to live more than 70 years, and they will grow old at 60. Of course, there are also people with extraordinary talents, but small-probability events must wait until large-scale screening has no results before considering them, otherwise the first person who wants to have
Without gods and monsters, this case would be impossible to investigate.
"But why do you think he is dressed strangely and his voice is hoarse?" Jian Yu couldn't understand this either.
"From the hair just found." Bai Yue said: "This hair is fragile, dry and lacks luster. It is most likely caused by some kind of disease in the murderer. The specific manifestations of this disease are cold sensitivity, excessive sweating,
The eyes are bulging. Or they may be afraid of heat, have a hoarse voice, have dry skin, and moss may grow on some skins.”
Of course, there is no need to go into too much detail about thyroid diseases or ringworm diseases, as it will be useless.
Jian Yu didn't doubt it. Bai Yue came from a medical family. Even if he wasn't good at studying and had been exposed to the disease since childhood, he naturally knew more about diseases than ordinary people.
Liang Meng wrote down Bai Yue's instructions and hurriedly followed the footprints. The snowy weather was both good and bad. It could cover up many traces, and it could also leave many traces.
The carriage rushed to Shili Village. This time Jian Yu got on the horse and Bai Yue returned to the carriage.
Peggy had already changed the girl's clothes, wrapped her whole body in a quilt, and wiped her hands and face with a hot towel, revealing a very delicate face.
"She hasn't woken up yet, and she didn't respond even if she yelled." Peggy said with a worried look on her face, "I don't see any injuries. Is this girl okay?"
"It sounds like your breathing is steady. It should be fine." Bai Yue looked at it for a moment, then reached out to take the old clothes she had put aside and looked through them carefully.
The clothes were covered in snow and mud. Peggy almost frowned and pinched them with two fingers. Seeing Bai Yue looking at them so carefully, she couldn't help but wonder: "Miss Bai, what are you looking at?"
Bai Yue didn't say anything, but rummaged carefully, but couldn't find anything after rummaging for a long time, so he put down his clothes in disappointment.
The victim was carried all the way by the murderer, and physical contact was essential, and it was very likely that clues would be left behind, such as fibers on the murderer's clothes, smells, and other special substances. Of course, this is not inevitable.
"Although these clothes are in tatters, the color is pretty and the red color is pretty." Bai Yue said casually: "Peggy, help me take care of her. If she wakes up, call me immediately."
Halfway through the carriage, they met the doctor who was picked up by the boy. He examined the girl and looked heavy.
"Because the freezing period was short, there is no serious problem." The doctor said, "The coma is due to the impact on the head and the back of the head is a little swollen."
Bai Yue also reached out and touched it, and it was indeed the case.
Jian Yu said: "Then when will she wake up?"
The doctor looked troubled: "It's hard to say how small it is. Maybe one or two days, maybe three to five months, maybe..."
Maybe he will never wake up again, or even wake up and become dementia.
Bai Yue sighed: "He is such a big kid. It would be so pitiful if he could not wake up like this."
Although her body is less than 20 years old, she has a mature soul of more than 30 years old. Looking at the girl in front of her who is no more than 17 or 18 years old, she can't help but feel unbearable.
The doctor also sighed with emotion, carefully checked the pulse, and went to the side to write a prescription and give instructions to his servants.
Jian Yu stood aside with his arms folded. Seeing that Bai Yue was a little depressed, he asked, "Do you think she is pitiful?"
Isn't it pitiful? Bai Yue raised his head and looked at Jian Yu.
"I felt sorry for her, so I came with me to find the murderer." Jian Yu said: "I came to Shili Village this time for vacation, but actually I wanted to re-investigate the case. I just didn't expect that I would run into this. Although this is a bad thing
, but it’s also a good thing.”
The last victim appeared four years ago. If the murderer disappears and no new clues emerge, then there will be no way to start.
"But this is too coincidental." Bai Yue couldn't help but start a conspiracy theory: "There have been several cases in the past few decades. As soon as we came here, they appeared, and they were discovered by Liang Meng...
"
Saying that, Bai Yue glanced at Jian Yu suspiciously.
"Sir Jian." When there is no need to pretend to be affectionate, Bai Yue still likes to call him "Sir Jian."
Jian Yu felt a little guilty for no reason.
"You have nothing to hide from me, right?"
Jian Yu's heart skipped a beat: "What do you mean?"
"I always feel that this is weird." But Bai Yue couldn't explain why it was strange at the moment. He could only say sincerely: "As human beings, whether we are big people like you or small people like me, the most important thing is to be magnanimous.
Come on, Ji Yue Guang Feng, have a bright heart, and treat each other with sincerity, only then can you be worthy of heaven and earth!"
