10. Identification of corpses

Soon Tianrui and they returned to the city, although it was late, but there were only sporadic lights on the streets, and it was really strange that there were only sporadic lights on such a bustling street. Fortunately, the green planet in the sky reflected the sunlight, and the glowing green light kept the night from dark.

Lei Leopard: "Look, there's an inn over there with lights on. With that, Thunder Leopard pointed forward excitedly.

Kalsi: "Let's go and see." ”

Lei Leopard: "Let's go, why are you afraid of spending money, you only earned 100,000 yuan" said while pushing Tianrui from behind and walking into the inn. In fact, Tianrui is really not because of money, but has been thinking about what has happened in the past few days all the way, and always feels that there is an invisible force sounding them.

Lei Bao: "Shopkeeper, come to the three best rooms." He pays the bill," he said, pointing to Tianrui.

Kalsi: "As a teacher, I should educate you to be diligent and thrifty, but as a teacher, I have broken my heart for your department these days, and we have the conditions, Tianrui." ”

Tianrui: "Okay, okay, let's enjoy it, you guys are really, simply" thought to himself: what the hell, if this money is blown by the wind, damn it, I still want to buy more rare materials.

Tianrui: "How much is the shopkeeper?"

Shopkeeper: "A few distinguished guests, are you the people invited by the city lord to investigate the case in the past few days?"

Kalsi: "Shopkeeper, do you know us?" The city lord has indeed entrusted us with investigating the case of the last few days. Then he took out the city lord's order and showed it to the shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper: "Oh, it's really a few distinguished guests, the city lord has ordered, and your food and lodging in the city are all borne by the city lord's mansion." The best rooms have already been reserved for you. ”

Kalsi: "Thank you very much, the shopkeeper told us which rooms they were." ”

Shopkeeper: "Tianzi No. 1, Tianzi No. 2, Tianzi No. 3 room." It's all on the third floor, everything in the room is ready for this session."

Kalsi: "Thank you, shopkeeper." ”

Lei Leopard: "This city lord is good, it's quite interesting." Yes, Tianrui, I've saved you money again. ”

Tianrui: "I always feel a little weird. ”

Kalsi: "Okay, let's go and rest, tomorrow I will go to the City Lord's Mansion to see how Xiaohua is doing, and discuss the next thing by the way." ”

After that, Tianrui and they each went to their rooms.

Tianrui sat cross-legged on the bed at this time, "Hey, too many things have happened in this time, does the insect swarm encountered in Kyle Village have anything to do with the insect swarm in this siege, and whether the little fox was the one he saved before, and why it was able to open the barrier of the city lord's wife and let us in." And who the hell wiped out the Spiritual Protection Society and killed so many civilians. Who is that person, and what kind of grudge does he have against the Lingbao Society, so vicious? And what kind of spiritual magic can clear the aura so cleanly. It seems that we will have to find out more about the city lord tomorrow.

Tianrui hadn't cultivated the Xuantian Heart Method for many days. Although there is no spiritual seal to increase spiritual power now, fortunately, the Xuantian Heart Method is not restricted, and the internal force can be cultivated. After that, he urged the internal force to run in the body, although the spiritual power could not grow, but the operation of the Xuantian Heart Method also drove the operation of the spiritual power, every time he practiced Xuantian Gong, Tianrui could feel that the spiritual power was gradually becoming stronger.

At this time, Tianrui's body seemed to be shrouded in a layer of faint light, flickering regularly. It's just that Tianrui didn't know that the enchantment that shrouded Jucheng at this time was also flickering with regularity, and this enchantment seemed to be emotionally touching Tianrui's rhythm.

At this time, Qingqiu Shuo was standing in the distance of the City Lord's Mansion and looked at the enchantment in the city: "What's going on?" Who is influencing the enchantment, is it?" After saying that, he ran towards the Silver Spirit Tree, and stopped at a distance from the Silver Spirit Tree, Qingqiu Shuo seemed to be concerned about this, and carefully put his left hand forward, as if he was on a transparent barrier to perceive something, and suddenly there was a burst of rhythm that bounced Qingqiu Shuo away, and Qingqiu Shuo's face became a little pale: "How is it possible, who can affect the enchantment outside the Silver Spirit Tree." With that, he flew away and disappeared in place.

On the morning of the second day, Tianrui came to the first floor of the inn early.

Tianrui: "Little Er! Go to the third early, by the way, call my two friends"

Xiao Er: "Okay, officer, wait a minute"

A moment later, Kalsi and Leopard came down from the upper floor.

Tianrui: "Teacher Kalsi is early, come over and have breakfast, it's ready for you"

Kalsi: "Well, yes, I'll give you extra points."

Lei Leopard muttered to himself: "What is there, it's not that he spends money." ”

Tianrui: "I'll be embarrassed if you don't say that, Mr. Kalsi, but the teacher looks very different." ”

Kalsi: "Ahaha, is it? I thought it was an illusion, but I didn't expect that there were so many benefits to seeing yesterday's spirit seal belt haha, let's eat early, and then we'll go to the city lord first." ”

Tianrui: "Okay teacher, I don't know how Xiaohua is"

Lei Leopard gobbled it up and said, "Eat quickly, eat well and go see the little flowers." ”

Tianrui glanced at Lei Leopard: "The teacher always feels that something is wrong about the case in this city. Does the teacher feel this way?"

Kalsi: "But it's true, many things make people very confused, let's just say who the person on the top of the mountain is, and why did the white shadow that appeared at the end cause such a violent explosion, which made Wang Zengyue die on the spot, and who will be the transparent figure in Liu Ermao's mouth." ”

What Tianrui was thinking, I didn't mean this, "Teacher, let's eat quickly, wait a minute, go talk to the city lord first." ”

Soon Tianrui and the others finished eating breakfast and came to the city lord's mansion.

"Oh, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I don't know if a few of you are satisfied with the arrangement in the city yesterday. Qingqiu Shuo stamped in from the back hall with a steady step

Kalsi: "I'm tired of the city lord, the arrangement is very thoughtful, I came here today, mainly to see how Xiaohua is, and we also have found something and want to discuss it with the city lord." ”

Qingqiu Shuo: "Xiaohua's condition is quite stable, but she has been in a coma, please come with me, a few of you" After that, he took Tianrui and them to the side of the ancient spirit bed with a metallic luster.

Tianrui and they looked at the little one lying on the bed who seemed to be nothing strange and relieved, and Kalsi also gave Tianrui a look, Tianrui began to observe Xiaohua with starry eyes, Xiaohua's meridians are intact, although the spiritual power runs much slower but very stable, it seems that this ancient spirit bed has really played a big role, but this ancient spirit bed seems to exude a very different atmosphere, so that Tianrui suddenly has a very familiar feeling. : How can you feel this way?

Kalsi: "Hey Tianrui!" Karsi's shout pulled Tianrui back from his thoughts.

Tianrui: "Teacher Kalsi, it seems that Xiaohua's condition should be relatively stable. ”

Kalsi nodded with some reassurance.

Lei Leopard: "What do you mean to be relatively stable?" Xiaohua has been in a coma, aren't you in a hurry?"

Qingqiu Shuo: "This little brother, don't worry, don't worry, Xiaohua will be fine for the time being, as long as she can get the fruit of life, she will definitely wake up." ”

Kalsi: "What the Qingqiu City Lord said is right, let's go to the mansion, there are some things that need to be discussed with the city lord." ”

Qingqiu Shuo: "Okay, please come with me." ”

In a blink of an eye, they came to the top of the palace.

Qingqiu Shuo: "I don't know how many people made a discovery yesterday"

Kalsi: "We found a corpse on the top of a hill southeast of the city yesterday, it may be Wang Zengyue, who has been missing for many days. ”

Qingqiu Shuo: "Are you talking about the top of the mountain that exploded a few days ago?"

Kalsi: "Exactly"

Qingqiu Shuo: "It's strange, after the explosion on that mountain, I sent someone to investigate and found nothing, how did you find out?"

Kalsi: "Here's how it happened......" Kalsi told Qingqiu Shuo in detail about what happened yesterday.

Qingqiu Shuo: "So that's the case, it turned out that the explosion on the top of the mountain was caused by Wang Zengyue and the people on the top of the mountain, but unfortunately Wang Zengyue was killed in the explosion. But who did Wang Zengyue fight with, and for what?"

Kalsi: "It's not clear yet, but the carbonized corpses that have appeared in the city in recent days are probably related to the battle. ”

Qingqiu Shuo: "Are you saying that the murderer is the person on the top of the mountain and the white shadow?"

Kalsi: "It's a possibility. ”

Qingqiu Shuo: "Does this Liu Ermao see that person's face clearly?" ”

Kalsi: "I say no. ”

Qingqiu Shuo: "Where is the body you found?" ”

Kalsi: "In our place, Tianrui will take out the corpse." ”

Tianrui: "Okay, Mr. Kalsi" said that, he took the corpse out of the storage spirit tool and put it on the ground. After that, he took out the badge and handed it to Qing Qiu Shuo and said, "Lord of the city, this was found in the place where the body was found. ”

Qingqiu Shuo: "So this corpse is Wang Zengyue?"

Kalsi: "I can't be sure yet, this corpse has been charred and I can't tell the face." It's better to call Liu Ermao to the court, identify the body, and see if there will be any clues. ”

Qingqiu Shuo: "Yes, yes, Zhao Hu, go to Xuan Liu Ermao to go to the court." ”

Zhao Hu: "It's the city lord." ”

After a while, Liu Ermao came to the top of the mansion, and knelt there without raising his head.

Qingqiu Shuo walked up to Liu Ermao and said, "Liu Ermao, get up, you can see if this corpse in the hall is your cousin Wang Zengyue." ”

Liu Ermao: "It's an adult." After saying that, he stood up and observed the corpse carefully, as if he seemed to smell the corpse, and suddenly Liu Ermao's face was a little pale. A little frightened and surprised, he looked at Qingqiu Shuo and said: "Lord Chengcheng, this corpse has been carbonized like this, and the small one is really impossible to confirm, but my brother-in-law broke his right leg more than ten years ago, and then after treatment by a master, he got better." I don't know if this is useful. ”

Qingqiu Shuo looked at Liu Ermao thoughtfully: "How is this good, how can this be confirmed?"

At this time, Liu Ermao seemed to deliberately avoid Qingqiu Shuo's gaze.

Lei Bao said to Liu Ermao: "Coward, what are you afraid of, the city lord didn't say that you are a murderer"

Liu Ermao: "I'm me, I'm just a little nervous and ......"

Qingqiu Shuo: "Okay, you go down first"

Liu Ermao: "It's an adult" said and turned around and walked out

Tianrui looked at Liu Ermao, who was leaving, with some doubts, and turned to Qingqiu Shuo and said, "Qingqiu City Lord, I have a way, we just need to put aside the carbonized tissue of the corpse's right leg and see if the bone of the right leg has ever been broken."

Qingqiu Shuo: "Okay, just do as you say"

Tianrui: "Okay city lord" said that Tianrui took out the willow leaf knife he had asked for from the armory workshop before, and used extremely skillful techniques to cut open the tissue of the corpse's right leg, revealing the bones that were already a little burnt, but there was actually a fracture on the right leg bone.

Qingqiu Shuo: "It seems that this corpse is indeed Wang Zengyue, it seems that the murderer must be the person on the top of the mountain, and the white shadow."

Tianrui always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, so he had to respond: "It is true in terms of the state of the corpse." ”

Qingqiu Shuo: "I don't know how many people, what do you need me to do, I fully cooperate." ”

Tianrui: "The city lord only needs to strengthen the vigilance in the city and patrol more, so that the murderer has no chance, and we will investigate the rest"

Qingqiu Shuo: "It's easy to say, I will dispatch more people, increase the frequency of patrols, as long as the murderer shows up, I will definitely catch it." ”

At this moment, an urgent report was made: "Report ~ Lord of the city, another corpse has been found"

Qingqiu Shuo: "What, where did you find it?"

Guard: "Lord Hui found it near the grain depot." ”

Qingqiu Shuo turned to Tianrui and said, "Please come with me to see how it is."

Kalsi: "Qingqiu City Lord, leave these to us, the city's guardian array can't be destroyed, Qingqiu City Lord should stay and protect the city lord's wife."

Qingqiu Shuo: "It's okay, it's time for you, you lead the way and take a few VIPs to the scene of the crime to check."

Guard: "It's the lord of the castle." With that, he took Tianrui and walked towards the scene of the crime.

On the way, Tianrui asked tentatively: "This big brother, how long has he been on an errand?"

Bingwei: "I've been on an errand in the government for four or five years."

Tianrui: "Your city lord has been strange recently. ”

Bing Wei: "This, it's nothing unusual, it's just that the city lord used to go out of the house for a walk in the evening, maybe there have been too many things happening in the city recently, and he has to guard the big array in the city, and he hasn't gone out for a walk for many days, but recently he often goes to the city lord's courtyard." ”

Tianrui: "Do you know where city lords usually go for a walk?"

Bingwei: "I don't know, I just know that the city lord goes to the southeast every time, but it's not very peaceful over there, there was a big explosion some time ago, and I heard that the entire mountain top was blown flat." ”

Tianrui: "Oh so, where is the city lord's courtyard?" ”

Bing Wei: "It's next to the city lord's mansion, it used to be a courtyard where the lady planted flowers and scattered her heart." Hey, it's just that now the city lord's wife is for the people in the city. In front of them is the scene of the crime. ”

Tianrui and the others looked in the direction pointed by the guards, and there was another carbonized corpse.

Tianrui stepped forward, checked it and said: "It's time for Young Master Lei to work, the deceased's death is similar to the previous corpse, the difference is that the deceased has no tearing shallow wounds, there seems to be no traces of a fight at the scene, and the expression of the deceased is too peaceful." Hey, have you identified the deceased?"

Bingwei: "Back to a few adults, he is the person who sees Hu Qifei, the head of logistics, who is in charge of the food supply of the entire city. ”

Tianrui: "First transport the body back to the prison, we have to examine it in detail"

Guard: "Yes," the guards said, and then the guards carried the corpse and walked towards the ice prison.

Tianrui and they slowly followed,

Kalsi: "Did you find any clues?"

Tianrui: "This is the only corpse that appeared in a prosperous area, the others are in the middle of the city, and the deceased did not struggle too much. There are no visible injuries on the body either."

Kalsi: "Could it be that the deceased and the murderer were acquaintances, and how did the murderer remove the aura of the corpse so cleanly?" ？”

Lei Leopard: "Do you think the aura of these corpses has been sucked by the murderer?" ”

Tianrui: "There is such a possibility, but don't you think it's strange? Wang Zengyue's corpse is also completely devoid of aura, how can the murderer have time to suck the aura of a master like Wang Zengyue so clean under that kind of battle?"

Karsi: "Then it should be some kind of spiritual magic to eliminate the aura, but what is it for, what is it to hide?"

Tianrui: "Do you think it's a little strange when Liu Ermao was recognizing the corpse just now?"

Kalsi: "That seems a little weird. ”

Tianrui: "It seems that we will have to talk to him when we go back, but let's go back to the ice prison first, dissect the corpse, and figure out some things." ”
