Chapter 382 The village guards, the whole village search
Looking at the corpses lined up by the pond, although everyone was used to seeing them, they still felt uncomfortable.
There are deaths everywhere in life, but no one can easily and cruelly determine the death of others so easily and ruthlessly, no matter what the reason is.
Or it cannot be said to be a row of corpses, because some of them are still corpses, and some of them have become bones for a long time.
Needless to say, Bai Yue, come forward to check, you are good at it.
But after checking for a while, he shook his head and stood up.
Jian Yu said: "How?"
Bai Yue frowned and said, "It's hard to say that the different environments in which the corpse are located will affect the speed of decay. I'm not familiar with the environment here and don't know the temperature. I'm also in the water, and I don't know what animals are in the water, so I can only roughly estimate it.
.”
"you say."
Bai Yue said: "The recent corpses are within a month. The long ones may have been a few years ago. These people are not young and have become the cause of death of bones, but there are several that can be confirmed to be due to external forces.
The lifelike paintings written by the artist in the ghost market are almost certainly all watched on the spot. Some of them have been observed more than once..."
Therefore, others are afraid of ghosts, and Bai Yue is never afraid of ghosts. She has never seen ghosts that hurt people, but she often kills people.
Bai Yue said: "The painter has been killing people to get more detailed images of death. He never stopped this before these two people today."
More than a dozen corpses, this is no longer a trivial matter. Jian Yu ordered Xu Feiyang to go out and find the people from the government to investigate the entire village. Bai Yue turned to ask Xi Chubei: "You just followed the footprints and chased you.
where?"
"In a broken house." Xi Chubeidao: "Then I saw the clothes and shoes that the murderer changed into, and then there was no other trace."
In such a completely unfamiliar place, it is not so easy to find someone. If Lao Kong did not appear openly, they would not be able to discover it for a while.
Jian Yu ordered Xu Feiyang to come back. After hearing what Xi Chubei said, he said, "You have searched in that room. Will there be a dark room?"
Xi Chubei Dao: "I was afraid that something would happen here, so I didn't search it carefully. But after a rough look, it was just a very simple wooden house, and there was no extension outside the house, unlike a dark room."
Bai Yue can only say that Jian Yu has been used to good life in the capital and has seen many big names and mansions. He is a little unacceptable to such a simple village.
"It is difficult to have a secret room in this kind of house, let alone a secret room that can hide people. That's a big area." Bai Yue said: "Do you suspect that there are still victims hiding in the village?"
Jian Yu nodded: "Yes, if so many victims were kidnapped from outside, it would be difficult to have no movement. What's more, you proposed two ways to die last night, and he immediately tried it. What's so coincidental?
Catching people is not catching rats, how can you catch a few?”
Unless it is a master like Shirakawa Ishi Wentian, the painter obviously knows martial arts. It is not that simple to want to kidnap people from outside and come back one after another.
It was already dawn, and it would take at least one or two hours for the yamen to send people to come. Bai Yue said, "If there are other victims in the village who are not too late to suffer, I'm a little worried..."
Because they found out here, the murderer was likely to run away because he was afraid of exposure. Before he escaped, he would definitely kill someone to silence him. After throwing the body, the murderer went to a room to change his clothes first and then leave, which was a bit too cautious.
Like in particular to get rid of them.
Jian Yu pondered for a moment and immediately said, "We look for it separately. No one comes to this village usually, and even if it hides people, it will not hide too tightly. There will always be clues."
At the moment, Bai Yue and Jian Yu led the Xing team, Yi and Liang Meng, Xi Chubei and Xie Pingsheng, and the troops were divided into three directions and walked in three directions.
Bai Yue said: "In addition to rooms with traces of life, everyone focuses on the ground. The ground close to the house should be digging a cellar here, which can hide people. Also, especially places close to water sources, such as a yard.
There are both wells and cellars.”
Bai Yue had never seen a cellar in Jian Mansion, and it was probably not popular in the capital. However, when I was simmering a big goose last night, I knew that there was a habit of digging a cellar here, and every household had it, which was used to store food.
As long as the cellar is digging big enough, it can be completely hidden. As for the quality of life in it, it doesn't matter to the murderer. In the eyes of the murderer, not everyone is human.
However; Liang Mengqi said: "I understand the cellar, why is the water source? Because life is convenient?"
"No." Bai Yue explained: "Because the murderer may be the painter, for a painter, eating and drinking is not important. What is important is painting. Without water, how to draw?"
When everyone thought about it, it made sense.
Jian Yu and Bai Yue led Team Xing, followed the footprints just now, and all the way to the house Xi Chubei and the others mentioned. This is a house that is no different from other houses in the village. It is so dilapidated that it is shaking, as if it is blowing a breath outside.
It will fall down.
There is no need to look at the house and you will know that there is no secret room, and it is just the size of a drawer, so it is impossible to hide people.
In the house, there were piles of clothes and shoes that the murderer had changed. Bai Yue let Team Xing smell it and smell it again. Then Team Xing jumped out of the window and fell into confusion.
At the door was a mint-like plant, emitting a strong smell, which directly disturbed Team Xing's sense of smell and made it at a loss.
It may not be the murderer who planted it specifically, but he chose to change his clothes here, so he must have considered this.
"The murderer is very thoughtful." Bai Yue said: "And he might have run away now. We will find so many corpses from the pool, and the government will definitely investigate it formally."
Yu Village is not big, Bai Yue and others are not easy to investigate. Dozens of yamen runners have divided the village one by one, and you can check every house and every piece of land clearly. If there is a big job
There is no reason why people cannot find it.
Jian Yu comforted, "It's nothing if you really run away. You've seen him look. Draw an image as a wanted order, so you don't have to worry about not being caught."
Bai Yue nodded and was about to speak, but suddenly he was stunned.
In the distance, a man walked towards them. If she read that wrong, her figure, face, and a painting scroll was placed in the bamboo basket behind her back. The man was the painter of the ghost market.
Bai Yue couldn't help but rub his eyes: "I read that right, it's him."
At this time, he didn't run away, and he appeared here openly, not even carrying a mask to cover it, and was very comfortable without any hurry.
The painter also saw Bai Yue and Jian Yu, was stunned for a moment, and then came up to meet him.
