It wasn't Lao Liu who killed the man, because Dadan took out a sack.
This is a bag that used to contain fertilizer, but is now used to hold a lamp. The bag is still the same bag, but because of the difference inside, the value is naturally different.
This is the second purpose of this group's trip.
Brother Wei looked at the artifact in the sack, and his facial features were tightly gathered together. He took out a piece of jade from the middle sack, and kept rubbing it in his hands: "Qian Er, it seems that Lao Liu did not do something wrong. Lao Liu did not take any of these things away, but if Lao Liu did not Yes, who would have killed the third child, and where did the sixth child go?"
Several people were silent, and then gathered together to mutter something.
I also pulled Guan Zengbin to sit down, carefully recalling the details of this matter.
The singing female corpse, what the villagers call Chumei. For unknown reasons, Zhao Mingkun, the Queen of Bajia County, came to this place. A group of six people from the same family, but seemingly in harmony with each other.
Such a small county has attracted so many people.
I observed these people from the corner of my eye, and there were three big characters written on everyone's face—distrust.
It was about eleven o'clock when San'er left, and the bearers carried the coffin to the foot of the mountain at about half past eleven. How did the murderer manage to kill and hide the corpse in just half an hour? When did the coffin bearers set off, and did they stop in the middle of the road
All of this is a mystery, especially with my current identity, it is impossible to get help from others. It may take a lot of effort to investigate this matter.
I don't know if Team Leader Shao and the others have set up their office in Linfen, and whether Gu Chen has been hidden in the dark.
And next, what will these people do, if they want to go, how can I keep these people
Brother Wei and the others seem to have reached a conclusion in the discussion. Second Brother Wei stood up and bowed to us: "Brother Wu, Ms. Zhao. This kind of thing happened now, and someone will come soon Yes. It is very dangerous for us to find San'er's body back, and those villagers will soon find out that we are fake."
"At that time, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave." Then, Second Brother Wei took out a piece of jade from the sack and threw it over: "Brother Wu, you are in such a difficult situation, but my brother can't help you. This piece of jade is also worth a thousand or eight hundred, it's my brother's confession to you."
I reached out to catch the jade, and while returning the dagger I received to them, I said, "It's just that San'er died tragically, and we won't find out who it is..."
Waving his hands, Second Brother Wei said, "Although the six of us are not real brothers, we were all taught by the same master. San'er died tragically, and I have to avenge this grudge. For safety's sake, I think we should separate. You and I are used to staying on the mountain, those can't catch us."
Although when the homicide happened, we were all by Brother Wei's side and there was no way to do anything, but these people still don't trust us. If I insist on going together at this time, I'm afraid it will only backfire. But as long as these people don't leave Bajia County, everything will be fine.
Brother Wei said to Zhao Mingkun again: "Miss Zhao, we have received a lot of benefits from coming with you this time, but now that someone is dead, the person you are looking for may not come to the appointment. We will find opportunities for money Give it back to you, I, Wei Changfeng, will definitely do what I say."
Before Zhao Mingkun could speak, Wang Ergou, who was crawling under my feet, started barking like a dog.
At the same time, the ethereal singing sound came out. The voice was sobbing, and it was impossible to tell where it came from. Hearing the singing, everyone looked around vigilantly. The voice is indeed the voice of a woman singing, and it is an old tune.
It was a soft and soft voice, but those who heard it couldn't help but feel hairy and goosebumps all over their bodies.
"Let's go!" Zhao Mingkun shouted, and rushed to the gate of the courtyard.
As soon as we walked out the door, we were taken aback by the sight in front of us.
A bloody man was facing the gate of the courtyard.
"Who is it!" Brother Wei couldn't help shouting.
Judging from the appearance, it is impossible to tell who this person is.
I walked around to the back of the corpse, only to find that his spine was strung up with a steel bar, and the bottom end of the steel bar was inserted into the loess, so that the corpse remained standing and would not fall down. A strong smell of blood rushed to the face and rushed straight into the brain. There is no corpse smell, and it should not be long since he died.
Judging from the skinless body, the fatal wound should be on the chest, where there are traces of being stabbed by a dagger. Judging from the length of the wound, it was only a few centimeters long, and the skin flaps on both sides had a slight texture, which seemed to be formed by piercing with a patterned dagger. In addition, there were several long and shallow scratches on the left arm of the corpse, which should be caused by the same kind of murder weapon.
The corpse held a dagger tightly in its hand, and this dagger was exactly the one owned by each of the six brothers in the gang. Even after his death, his right hand still held the knife tightly, without any sign of letting go.
Brother Wei and others surrounded him, and I stepped back a few steps and came in front of Guan Zengbin: "What do you think?"
"The corpse just showed rigor, and it is estimated that it has been dead for about an hour." Guan Zengbin whispered in my ear.
I looked at my watch, it was already twelve thirty at night.
That is to say, he should have been killed around 11:40, and San'er was estimated to have died around 11 o'clock. The time difference between the two people's murders was only about half an hour. Could it be that they were killed? the same murderer? And who is this person
Everyone's attention was on the corpse, and they didn't notice my conversation with Guan Zengbin.
Guan Zengbin continued: "The cause of death of the corpse should be a stab wound to the chest. Although the wound was short, it was deep. The cause of death should be dyspnea and massive bleeding caused by a ruptured lung."
"And look at his arm and the dagger in his hand." Guan Zengbin continued to whisper: "His hand is still holding the dagger tightly. This is called a partial death spasm. It is a condition where the muscles have not been relaxed after death. This shows that he has been holding this dagger tightly during his lifetime."
It can be seen that this person seemed to have had a fight with the opponent before he died.
I closed my eyes, recreating the most likely scenario in my mind.
I am a murderer, and I walk side by side with the dead. I slowly took out the dagger from my pocket, and the other party didn't notice it in the dark environment. Then, I turned around sharply and stabbed the dead man with my right hand. The deceased subconsciously blocked it with his hands, so I left two long scratches on his left arm.
I pushed his arm away with one hand, and stabbed at him violently with the other. But at this time, the deceased also held his dagger and wanted to stab me. But before he could make a move, my dagger had already pierced deeply into his chest. He looked at me and couldn't believe I was going to kill him.
I opened my eyes and realized one thing.
Two people can walk side by side in the middle of the night, which shows that they know each other. If it is two strangers, they will definitely keep a certain safe distance.
"What are you two doing?" Zhao Mingkun turned his head and saw me and Guan Zengbin.
I held Guan Zengbin's hand and said, "It's nothing, she's a little scared, I'm here to comfort her."
Qian San looked around, and then said: "This corpse is still holding our dagger, only six of our brothers have this kind of dagger. The man who killed San'er had one in his hand, and the sixth brother had another in his hand. There is no need to ask, this corpse is the corpse of Lao Liu, someone took San'er's dagger and stripped Lao Liu!"
Qian San reached out to pull the steel bars on the corpse.
"This is the sixth child?" I frowned and asked, "I didn't see it."
Indeed, the face was damaged too badly.
Second brother Wei stopped Qian San's movement and said, "Apart from us, who else knows the address here? I'm afraid the murderer came from the mouth of the sixth. It seems that someone is going to deal with our brothers." Well, San'er probably didn't open his mouth, so someone directly cut his throat!"
"Could it be that the murderer was a ghost?" Dadan looked around and said in a low voice, "We all heard that voice just now, and the villagers said that Chu Mei came back. Could it be that Chu Mei is going to deal with us?"
"Could it be that matter?" Qian Er muttered in a low voice.
"Master, come here, here is something, someone wrote blood here." Wang Ergou found something.
We followed Wang Ergou's shouts and walked over, and sure enough, on the wall outside the courtyard, someone wrote these words in blood: "I know what you have done."
The person who wrote this word obviously knew the gang of Second Brother Wei, and it seemed that they were targeting Brother Wei and his group.
But what have they done before
Seeing these words, the expressions on these people's faces were uncertain. The second brother Wei came to us in three steps at a time, and said quickly: "You two, let's leave now. This matter may have something to do with us, and it has nothing to do with a few of you. Farewell, see you again if you have a chance .”
As he said that, Second Brother Wei waved his hand, and the four of them quickly disappeared into the night.
Brother Wei and the others originally made their fortunes from Lin Fen, so they can be counted as local elders, so there are naturally many enemies. Is there any secret between these people and Bajia County? Who is this Chu Mei, and why are the villagers so afraid of Chu Mei. From the looks of it, we seem to be involved in a mystery.
I took one last look at the corpse and said, "Let's get out of here as soon as possible."
