Chapter 31: Sadness
The group walked to the flat ground under the hillside as they spoke. www.biquge.info Lin Xiran is responsible for determining whether the corpse robbers have dug up the grave or not, after all, he has investigated and handled a lot of this kind of case, and he is more experienced. It's just that in the process of Lin Xiran unloading the cloth bag on her shoulders and walking around to investigate, Xia Shuanghan was not idle, she also squatted down and looked around.
"You shouldn't be wrong." Lin Xiran, who walked and stopped on the graveyard, sometimes squatted and sometimes stood up, touched here and poked there, and finally made a judgment: "Nine times out of ten, it was said by Miss Xia." I found traces of someone using a shovel on this piece of land (since this article is overhead, please consider the date of invention of the shovel, thank you), and the texture, color, and contents of the refurbished soil indicate the depth at which they were originally located. To be able to dig that depth, it is impossible to cultivate the land or to cause chaos among wild animals. ”
"Can you tell the time of the digging?" Xia Shuanghan stood up and asked, "Let's say about ten days or within one or two days?" ”
"Both times, after all, the deep soil begins to change color when it is dug to the surface, and judging by the color, the poachers of the bones must have been digging here for more than a day. Judging by the breadth and breadth of the refurbished surface, they may have exhumed six or seven skeletons. And you can smell that there is a faint smell of freshly turned earth in this graveyard, so I guess the skeletal exhumers should still be here before we go into the mountains. ”
"That's right. Now that Lin Gongzi has been confirmed, let's go down the mountain to report the case later. You can wait until another day. Xia Shuanghan said and raised his hand to wipe the small beads of sweat that oozed from the corners of his forehead because of the sun, and said, "When I drink saliva, will we issue it again?" ”
"Okay, Miss Xia, you are free first." Lin Xiran nodded understandingly, and then turned to Uncle Li.
Xia Shuanghan walked to the cloth bag resting on the rock after Lin Xiran faced Uncle Li, squatted down and took out the water bladder from it, pulled out the plug and raised his head to drink, while listening to the conversation between Lin Xiran and Uncle Li while drinking.
"Uncle Li, these days, when you come to patrol the mountains during the day, have you seen any suspicious people?"
"I didn't see it." Uncle Li simply said: "If I see it, I will definitely have to come forward to interrogate, right?" Moreover, don't tomb robbers always haunt at night? I don't go up the mountain when it's dark, and even if there is a suspicious person at that time, I can't touch it, right? ”
"Then you-" Lin Xiran's question was not finished, because Uncle Li, who was being questioned by him, was knocked unconscious by Xia Shuanghan, who was leaning over from the side with a water bladder.
"Summer ....... Summer girl! What are you doing?! Lin Xiran was shocked by Xia Shuanghan's unprepared behavior. What the hell is going on? He didn't even react to what he saw, and saw Xia Shuanghan holding a stone paperweight that he didn't know if it was hidden behind his back in advance or covered with a water bladder and waved it down on the back of Uncle Li's neck! Then, Uncle Li fainted and fell to the ground!
"I'll explain that later." Xia Shuanghan put down the stone paperweight, bent down to check Uncle Li's breathing and pulse, and after confirming that it was okay, he turned his hand to pick up the water bladder that fell on the ground. After plugging the plug of the water bladder, Xia Shuanghan reached out and touched Uncle Li's forearm, calf, chest and waist, and found a dagger hidden in his sleeve and a porcelain bottle hidden in his waist. Xia Shuanghan stuffed the dagger into her boots, then opened the small porcelain bottle and sniffed it, and then, she stuffed the small porcelain bottle into her sleeve and untied Uncle Li's belt.
"Miss Xia, what the hell are you doing here?" Lin Xiran felt that he might be going insane. What did he see? He actually saw a Yun Ying unmarried girl touching the body of a strange man, and then untied the man's belt? No, he had to stop it! "Miss Xia, stop it! Do you know what you're doing?! ”
"Well, I'm well aware that I'm not insane." Xia Shuang Hanli ignored Lin Xiran, and from his flustered voice, she could fully imagine his expression of "eyes are about to fall".
Lin Xiran watched helplessly as Xia Shuanghan pushed Uncle Li to roll on the ground several times in order to untie Uncle Li's belt, and then watched Xia Shuanghan tie Uncle Li's hands behind his back with his belt, and later, Xia Shuanghan finally took the time to look at him!
"Lin Gongzi, do you know how to point points?" After wasting all his strength, Uncle Li sat cross-legged, Xia Shuanghan wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead and gasped heavily.
"Yes...... I'll point to the point. Lin Xiran still couldn't fully recover from the surprise and surprise.
"Yes." Xia Shuanghan gasped and said, "You can give Uncle Li a point, so that his lower body can't move, and then I will start to explain why I want to knock him out." ”
After Lin Xiran did what he said, Xia Shuanghan pressed Uncle Li's people heavily, and after a while, Uncle Li woke up.
"Smack", while Uncle Li was not fully awake, Xia Shuanghan slapped his slap on the side of his ear, and then returned to Uncle Li and said righteously: "Bold criminal, I am the Xia Da secret agent codenamed 'Xia Yijiao' in Jingzhao Yin Yamen, and now it has been found out that you are an accomplice in the case of the robbery of the wreckage in the vast mountain, who is the main culprit and where is it now, you don't want to recruit it from the truth!" ”
"What's that?" Lin Xiran and Uncle Li, who were startled by Xia Shuanghan's slap, both used "What are you talking about?" He looked at her.
Xia Shuanghan ignored Lin Xiran, and said to himself: "Don't recruit it?" Okay, after I find out the stolen money you are hiding at home, I will pull you to Jingzhao Yin Yamen to play a hundred big boards, and then even if you want to recruit, you will probably have no fate! ”
"I don't know what Miss Xia is talking about." After Uncle Li, who came to his senses, realized that his hands were tied behind his back and his lower body could not move, he decisively gave up the struggle, looked directly at Lin Xiran and said, "Master Lin, what is going on?" ”
"You said you didn't know?!" Xia Shuanghan ignored Uncle Li's question, and ignored Lin Xiran's face full of doubts and surprise, so he just continued his questioning: "Okay, since you said that you don't know anything about the case of the robbery of the wreckage in the vast mountain, then you can answer me a few questions, if all the answers are reasonable, then I will admit that I wronged a good person and make amends to you." Do you agree? ”
"Just ask." Uncle Li's face was full of the righteousness of "being upright and not afraid of shadows", "Young Master Lin, please listen to it and testify to my innocence!" ”
Lin Xiran looked at Xia Shuanghan, then turned his head to look at Uncle Li, and sighed: "Then I'll be a judge and listen to why Miss Xia believes that Uncle Li is related to this case!" ”
"Good! It's just ......" Xia Shuanghan said vigilantly looking around the cemetery, and said, "I also hope that Lin Gongzi can listen and pay attention to whether there are any sneak attacks, because according to my speculation, the perpetrators of the robbery did not go far." After Xia Shuanghan finished speaking, he turned to Uncle Li and began the confrontation between the two sides.
"Uncle Li, I remember that when you had lunch today, you once said at the dinner table that the meal is made according to the amount of lunch and dinner, that is to say, the amount of rice is only enough for you to eat two meals alone. Lin Gongzi just ate as much as Uncle Li, so it stands to reason that he doesn't have my share. But Uncle Li, you insist that the portion is enough, why is this? With this question in mind, I took advantage of the opportunity to go to the stove room to fill the water bladder after eating the steamed buns and lifted the lid to take a look, and found that the amount in the pot was far more than two servings, and there was a food basket on the table in the stove room. So I want to ask Uncle Li, are you planning to deliver food to anyone? ”
"How can you bring food to anyone?" Uncle Li retorted: "I cooked too much because I invited Carpenter Wang from Xiaopeach Blossom Village to come and do some work for me in the afternoon. Carpenter Wang eats a lot of food, and if I don't make three or four servings at noon, it won't be enough for me and him to eat at night. As for the food basket, it was two days ago, and the dog in the village used it to bring me some wild fruits and put them with me. I put it on the stove table, because I was afraid that I would forget to bring it back to Carpenter Wang when he returned to the village at night. ”
"Yes, the answer is reasonable." Xia Shuanghan went through Uncle Li's answer twice in his mind, but didn't find any loopholes, so he began to ask the second question: "Second question, Uncle Li, you just said, the reason why you insist on going into the mountain with us is to prevent us from being bitten by snakes and insects, and you even went into the back room to get an ointment for treating insect and snake bites, right?" But why didn't you go to the front after entering the mountain, but let Lin Gongzi take the lead? The people who are at the forefront are the ones who are most likely to be bitten by a snake hiding in the grass, aren't they? Uncle Li, the reason why you deliberately walked behind me at that time was because it was more convenient to catch me in such a formation, so that you could use me as a hostage to coerce Lin Gongzi when necessary? ”
