Chapter 40: Doubts

When Xue Er and the others were about to walk back to the town, a thin man ran not far in front of them, and before the three of them could see who it was, they heard a roar: "Xue Tou, Xue Tou, it's not good"

When the man came to him, Kuroko complained to the visitor: "Douzi, you have to change this problem of saying half a sentence and leaving half a sentence in the future, a few of us are fine, if you have a violent temper, I have to beat you half to death."

Xue Er saw that Heizi was talking farther and farther, and gave him a pause, turned his head and asked Xiang Douzi: "Hurry up, don't gasp anymore, it's not good to say anything"

Douzi stroked his chest with his hand, panting and stammering, "No, no, it's not good." Just now, someone just now, come, come to report, report, outside the town, in the grove outside the town, two more bodies were found"

As soon as Kuroko wanted to say something to Xue Er, he saw him running away after Douzi finished speaking. Seeing this, Heizi turned his head and reached out to slap Douzi's brain and said, "Such an important thing is still slowly said, looking for a beating" and then ran with Xue Er and Dalin.

Douzi touched his sore head, muttered a few words, and ran towards the grove.

When they reached the grove, several people were standing by the roadside waiting for them. Seeing Xue Er and them coming, one of the middle-aged men hurriedly greeted him: "Xue Zhutou, you are here." I went in to pee just now, and I saw something in the woods, and when I got closer, I realized that I was going to say..., tsk, I died really miserably, and I almost didn't scare my pants into peeing. Everybody"

Xue Er waved his hand to signal the man next to him to stop, turned his head and frowned and asked, "Before we came, did anyone else go in?" ”

"No, we are all standing on the side of the road and watching."

Xue Er nodded with satisfaction, beckoned to the sunspots, and motioned for them to follow. After walking a few steps, he wanted to return to the man who was following him, turned his head to him and said, "Very well, we will take care of the rest." Don't stay here any longer, do what you have to do."

The man originally wanted to go with him to see the excitement, but when he heard Xue Er say this, he thought of the bloody corpse again, hugged his arms and rubbed the chill on his body, shook his head and went back.

Xue Er and the others followed the man's instructions and walked about a few dozen meters into the woods, and saw a corpse lying on the ground, and three or four meters away from this corpse, there was another corpse horizontally.

Kuroko and Dalin stretched out their heads from behind Xue Er and looked ahead, and then Kuroko said slowly: "Xue Tou, let Douzi go with you later." I heard Douzi say that someone has also informed Madman Chen, I guess he will be there in a while, why don't I and Dalin help you meet him outside? ”

Xue Er also knew that because of the incident in Yizhuang just now, Heizi and Dalin had not yet eased up, so this time he forced them again, and he answered them without looking back.

Heizi and Da Lin got Xue Er's permission, and after laughing stupidly twice, they turned around and ran outside the forest.

Xue Er took a few steps forward and squatted down in front of the corpse, the first impression of the deceased here was that his face was pale, different from the pale face of the corpse in Yizhuang, as if someone had taken the blood of this corpse away, Xue Er's body could faintly see cyan blood vessels from under the seemingly transparent skin.

He picked up a wooden stick from the side and picked at the deceased's navy blue clothes, most of the wounds were gathered in the abdomen, judging by the size of the knife wounds, the two cases were also the same as the previous ones, the same person was responsible. However, whether it is specific or not will not be confirmed until a careful inspection is made.

After standing up, Xue Er walked towards another corpse, and the bean next to him also followed when he saw this. Xue Er turned his head to look at the blinking beans, and asked with a smile, "Aren't you afraid?" ”

Douzi touched the back of his head and smiled stupidly: "What's there to be afraid of, my uncle's family is a butcher, I've been used to this kind of thing since I was a child, no matter how disgusting it is, I've seen it, and I'm still afraid of these."

This was obviously the first time Xue Er heard Douzi say this, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised, but then he patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "I knew that you were like this, I should have taken you to Yizhuang this morning" and walked to the second corpse as he spoke.

Just as the two of them were about to crouch down to look at the corpse, they heard someone shouting at them: "Don't move while standing, don't move while standing"

Both of them were so frightened by this roar that they stopped their movements, turned their heads to look at the comer, and saw that the madman Chen stumbled over, Xue Er sighed and said to him: "Master Chen, what are you doing here?"

Madman Chen panted and squeezed the two apart from the side, squatted down and examined the corpse himself, and then said happily: "Fortunately, the original state of the corpse was not destroyed" and then took out the tools from the wooden box he carried with him, and examined the corpse on the spot.

Xue Erjian couldn't help much now, so he walked around, and this circle made him find some new clues.

The two corpses were placed in a posture with their heads facing north and their feet facing south, but unlike the first corpse, there was a trail of drag next to the second corpse, although the mark was a little shallow, but it was still recognized by the thoughtful Xue Er.

Xue Er followed this trace and stopped until he was about ten meters away from the corpse. Crouching down to inspect the dirt and leaves on the ground, he could clearly see the blood splattered on the leaves and dirt. Moreover, judging from the traces of the formation of the soil on the ground, it seems that someone deliberately turned the body in a different direction before dragging it to the later place.

Looking at the second corpse lying on the ground, a deep doubt welled up in my heart.

Douzi tilted his head to look at Xue Er, who was stunned by the corpse in the distance, walked over and asked in a low voice, "Xue Tou, what are you doing here?" ”

Xue Er squinted at the corpse in the distance, frowned and asked Douzi: "Douzi, what will you do if you kill two people?"

"Xue Tou, what are you kidding, I dare to kill pigs, but I don't dare to kill people. Even if you are the head, you can't frame me like this" The bean head shook like a rattle, waving his hand at Xue Erdao in panic.

Xue Er looked at Douzi a little speechlessly, and said weakly: "I just said that if, if you are so stupid, how did you become a head catcher?" ”

Hearing the meaning of Xue Er's words, Douzi laughed awkwardly twice, then turned his head to look at the corpse in the distance and said, "Of course, I ran away after killing people, do you still want to stay and appreciate it?"

Xue Er nodded approvingly: "Yes, most people do this." But after the murderer killed someone, he did not run immediately, but stayed behind and moved the two bodies together. What's even more incomprehensible is that the two corpses were originally not very far away, only a dozen meters away, why did he have to work so hard to move the two corpses together? It can't be easy for people to spot, right? ”

After listening to Xue Er's analysis, Douzi's brain was suddenly stuffed with paste, and he couldn't turn around. After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't have a clue, and said to Xue Er embarrassedly: "Xue Tou, if you don't discuss with Mayor Xiao, it's okay to talk to Brother Heizi, always find someone smarter, my brain is too stupid to think of"

Xue Er didn't expect Douzi to help, but simply expressed his doubts. It just so happened that at this time, Madman Chen seemed to have been examined, so he walked to the first corpse with Douzi.

Seeing Xue Er and them coming, Madman Chen rushed to Xue Er to find a hand, motioned for him to squat down, and said to him with a serious face: "Judging from the knife technique and the size of the knife wound this time, I dare to conclude that the same person did it with the previous murders." But ......"

As he spoke, Madman Chen lifted the deceased's tattered clothes with his own hands and said: "Look here, here, these places are critical, it is indeed like what I told you this morning, the other party's methods are already very skillful, and the knife is deadly." However, if you look inside the knife, unlike the previous knife killings, this time although it seems to have hit the vital point, the knife edge is shallow, which shows that it was not enough to kill people immediately. ”

Hearing this, Xue Er turned his head to look at Madman Chen in astonishment, only to see him nodding and continuing: "Yes, as you think. If you look at the dirt beneath him, it's also black, but both bodies have a dark red underneath them, and in my years of experience, these two men died of blood loss. If ......"

"If the prisoner stood in front of these two people and watched them die at that time, it would be terrible" Obviously, Xue Er was also frightened by his own inference, but if he didn't explain it like this, what reason was there for the prisoner to do so?

"And" Madman Chen pushed Xue Er, who was a little stunned, and motioned him to look into his hand: "This is what I found in the mouth of this corpse"

Xue Er pinched the things in the palm of Chen's lunatic, looked at the sunlight for a moment, and then looked at him suspiciously: "Thin line? ”

Madman Chen nodded and said, "It seems that it should be left behind by the cloth stuffed in order to prevent the deceased from shouting." Judging from the color, it should be bamboo blue."

Xue Er took out a piece of white cloth from the wooden box of Madman Chen, wrapped the thread, and put it in his arms. Then he said to Douzi: "Let Kuroko and Dalin find a car and carry these two corpses to Yizhuang." Then go and call the painter over, and ask him to draw a portrait of these two people, and post it when the time comes, to see if anyone recognizes these two people."

After finishing the order, Xue Er stood up and clasped his fists and saluted Madman Chen: "Master Chen, thanks to you this time, if you still need any clues, please be sure to tell me again."

This time, Madman Chen did not look crazy as before, but nodded very seriously.

After everything was arranged, Xue Er went back to the town to report the matter to Mayor Xiao.

I have to say that it's really a good thing not to go out and a bad thing to travel thousands of miles, when Xue Er rushes back, some villagers who hear the news will come up to inquire about the situation from Xue Er.

"Xue Zhutou, I heard that another gangster died?"

"Is it true? Those hooligans were killed again, and thank goodness God finally opened his eyes. Xue Zhutou will tell us who died this time? ”

"That's it, that's it, it's good to die a few more, just those bastards, who usually only know that Lu Dao bullies us honest people, and I don't know who killed them, let's burn incense and worship the Buddha for that person, I hope he can clean up a few more for God, Xue Tou, are you right?"

"Xue Zhutou, this is to eliminate harm for the people, you officials still want to arrest people? Isn't that unreasonable? What do you want to do? ”

Listening to the one-sided discussions of the villagers, Xue Er didn't go to reason with them, but walked by without saying a word.

However, when he received the portrait in the afternoon, he suddenly remembered what the people on the road had said, and a strong thought slowly formed in his heart, maybe the villagers were right, maybe he really should not have arrested this prisoner who 'eliminated harm for the people'.
