Chapter 54: Searching for the Body

Qian Tu was suddenly grabbed, and he was about to say **, when he was interrupted. retorted dissatisfiedly: "Who has a lustful heart, what kind of person I am, don't you know?" I was serious about handling the case. ”

"Serious about handling cases? Are you still serious about handling the case? Dongmei said deliberately: "Qian Tutu... Don't you know what kind of cases your Gyeonggi parents are handling by the government? It's all about the sale of small animals, and you're embarrassed to say you're serious about handling the case! ”

"What's wrong with the critters? Small animals are also creatures in this world, just like humans. All beings are equal, do you know what is equality of all beings? Qian Tu immediately retorted like a fried hedgehog. The most annoying thing in his life is the overlapping words of other people's names, and he doesn't feel majestic at all!

"Oh, all beings are equal?" Dongmei hadn't teased Qian Tu for a long time, so she couldn't help teasing: "I heard the monks in the temple say this." ”

"You!" Qian Tu's half-squinted eyes were now wide.

Xuanyuan Hao still had no expression, but took a step back with Chu Yueqing. Chu Yueqing looked at the two of them inexplicably beside him, and still remembered that they were still very normal when they were in the side room just now, why did they compete with each other for so long.

persuaded loudly, "Dongmei, let's listen to Lord Qian's reason." Then he asked Qian Tu: "Lord Qian, why do you say that you see it from your lips?" ”

Qian Tu was no longer interested after being interrupted, and reluctantly replied: "Because her lips tremble when she speaks, Xia Guan has observed that when people lie, their lips usually tremble slightly. ”

The sky was scattered with the afterglow of the setting sun, but the mild sunset was particularly dazzling in the gray and cold sky. The rain of early winter came to an end. The occasional cold wind in the woods made the three of them shiver.

Xiao Zhao led the two entourages to the south of the flower garden, where a few plum trees were sparsely planted, but at this time it was just winter, and there were basically no bones on the plum trees.

The three of them looked down in the woods, but the land that had just rained was very muddy. After walking a few steps, the shoes of the three were already unrecognizable.

Xiao Zhao looked down at the cloth shoes that were clean and brand new before he came, and sighed in his heart, what new shoes do I wear on this rainy day! shouted in his mouth: "Be careful when you walk, don't destroy the crime scene!" ”

The two people in the back looked at each other, it rained so heavily today, and the scene of the crime had already been destroyed! silently glanced at Xiao Zhao who was walking in front of him, and the two ignored him and continued to look left and right.

After a while, Xiao Zhao stared at a red abnormal plum tree in a daze, and asked, "Did the plum blossoms bloom so early in previous years?" ”

The two little servants slowly walked to Xiao Zhao's location, saw the red plum blossom, and then looked at the other plum trees, their faces were suspicious, "It's a little strange, you see that there is not even a flower bone on the other trees!" ”

The surrounding air is cold, and the red plum blossoms are even more enchanting in this withered and depressed forest. The coldness that had just fallen from the three of them instantly reached their chests from the soles of their feet, and they unconsciously looked down at their feet.

"Oh my god!" The three of them roared and retreated dozens of meters, hugging each other.

……

Xiao Zhao: "That, too, maybe it's just that more flowers bloom better..."

The two little guys grabbed each other's sleeves tightly, and said in unison, trembling: "We feel that that piece of land is softer than other places..."

There was silence in the woods.

Xiao Zhao's courage was still relatively big, so he calmly let go of the two of them, put his hands on his chest, put them in a protective posture, and said, "Let's go over and have a look, the adults asked us to come, isn't it just to find the corpse?" ”

With that, he slowly walked to the red plum. The two people behind were already extremely scared, and instinctively followed behind Xiao Zhao. Walking in front of the red plum tree, Xiao Zhao learned from Qian Tu's usual case-handling, squatted down, and pinched the soil under the tree with his hands in a decent manner.

It doesn't seem like anything special...

Xiao Zhao felt that someone was pulling his clothes behind him, and said: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it is estimated that this plum blossom bloomed early, and I think this land is no different from other places." ”

There is no body voice behind him.

Xiao Zhao stood up, turned to look at them, and said sarcastically: "You two are so cowardly, how can you handle cases with adults in the future!" Lord Zhanmen will have to handle some big cases in the future, and when the time comes..."

Before Xiao Zhao's words were finished, he saw that the faces of the two had already been whited!

"Zhao, Zhao, Brother Zhao, you, you, you..."

Xiao Zhao saw the two of them looking at their feet with round eyes, and he didn't know what was wrong with his feet, so he followed their line of sight. "Ah~"

The screams pierced the sky! Xiao Zhao's shoe revealed a pale, bloodless hand. The owner of the hand is none other than the missing Natsuka.

In the main hall.

Steward Zhang stood in Zhuxin Courtyard with the guards in the palace, "The prince, the princess, the old slave is incompetent and failed to catch the thief." ”

Xuanyuan Hao frowned slightly, "Didn't catch it?" ”

"Yes, the old slave is incompetent, please punish the prince." As he spoke, Steward Zhang was already kneeling on the waterlogged bluestone ground.

"Please punish the prince." The guards knelt in response.

Xuanyuan Hao was angry, and he was angry that Adian spoke wildly, so he didn't get angry with the guards in the garden, and said, "That's it." ”

――

Xiao Zhao rushed to the main courtyard quickly, like the wind under his feet, and when he saw Qian Tu, he couldn't care about anything, and shouted: "My lord, I found it, I found the corpse." ”

Chu Yueqing was entangled in Xuanyuan Hao's changes, but he wanted to escape for some reason. At this time, hearing Xiao Zhao's words, his attention instantly returned to the topic, "Where is it?" Take me to see it. ”

"Princess, the slave and maid are also going, please ask the princess for permission."

Chu Yueqing looked at the pale but firm little eyebrows, and said solemnly: "Okay, you can go together." Steward Zhang, you can choose a few bold guards to come along. ”

――

Xia Xiang's body was not buried deeply, and after a day of heavy rain, in addition to that hand, there was actually a small amount of clothing corners exposed.

Xiao Zhao and the three of them stood behind Qian Tu and didn't say a word.

A few brave guards used small shovels to peel off the soil on the corpse little by little, but fortunately, the weather was relatively cold these days, and Xia Xiang's body did not decompose.

However, it is also very scary to look at at the moment, the skin on his body is like frost, pale and blue, and the skin on his face has sunken. Seeing this, Xiaomei couldn't stop gagging.

As a healer, Moori closed her eyes tightly, unable to bear to look directly.

Dongmei's expression was solemn, just so close to her, there was a murder, and she didn't even notice it!

Qian Tu looked at the corpse, and her murder flashed in front of her eyes. The eyebrows are frowning, and their expressions are very solemn, why can't they see their past. (To be continued)

PS: Speaking of which, the author only recently figured it out, collecting refers to putting the book on the shelf~

So, ask for collections, ask for recommendations!

Also, will anyone want to see the process of Xia Xiang not harming? Because it's not the main story, and she's dead, I'll put it in the small theater if anyone wants to see it.
