Chapter 175: Let's Go to the Crime Scene First!
This Wang family compound is really not an ordinary magnanimity, entering the gate is a square yard, the yard is very large like a basketball court, and a lot of trees are planted, it looks like the kind of trees that are at least twenty or thirty years old, and the lobby is facing the gate, and I followed the old man and walked into the lobby.
As soon as I arrived in the lobby, the old man asked me to sit down, and then sat down in a chair myself.
Soon the guards found more than a dozen people, both men and women, and in a few moments, the hall was full. The old man was not ambiguous, and when he saw that everyone was almost together, he said loudly: "You are all the people who accompanied Miss that day, this son is ......," he glanced at me and asked, "Haven't you asked the son's surname Gao?" ”
"My surname is Bi, and my single name is a Ran!" I replied.
The old man nodded at me and continued: "This Bi Gongzi came to the house today to thoroughly investigate what happened that day, and you can answer whatever Bi Gongzi asks, do you hear?" ”
"Yes, sir!" The crowd responded.
"Hmm!" The old man nodded slightly, then turned his head to look at me, "Master Bi, you ask!" ”
"Good!" I stood up and looked at the people in front of me, paced up and asked, "Do any of you remember the bandits that day?" ”
No one spoke.
I turned my head to look at the old man Wang who was sitting on the chair, the old man nodded slightly, and said loudly: "You can say whatever Bi Gongzi asks, and you can't hide it!" ”
I nodded, turned my head and pointed to one of the little maids who looked to be no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, "Tell me about it!" ”
The little maid timidly raised her head and looked at me, and whispered, "That day...... Those bandits were all masked, and they never saw their faces! ”
"Hmm!" I nodded, "Little sister, don't be afraid, I'm just asking, you can tell the truth!" ”
"Yes...... Be! The little maid replied timidly.
I continued to look at the people in front of me and asked aloud, "Then do you remember how many people they came?" ”
"About twenty people!" One of them replied.
"No, it's more than thirty people!" The other corrected.
An old man said, "At that time, we were all scared, and we didn't pay attention to how many of them were, but there are twenty-seven or eight!" ”
After hearing this, everyone nodded their heads in agreement.
According to Wang Wu's words, the number of people who went out to rob and guarded in the cottage was about 1.5 to 1, in other words, there should be less than 20 people left in the cottage at that time, and the total number of people would not exceed 50.
I nodded slightly and continued to ask, "Did these bandits come on horseback or on foot!" ”
The old man replied, "On foot!" ”
I bowed my head slightly, so this group of bandits has no capital, and they can't even afford a horse, uh no, they shouldn't be able to rob it! I went on to ask, "Their leader's face...... You didn't see it either? ”
"I didn't see it clearly!" The old man shook his head.
I looked at the dozen or so people in front of me again, and asked an extremely boring question, "Then when they snatched the young lady away...... Did you carry the sedan chair or walk back? ”
"Lift the sedan chair!" It was the old man who answered.
I instantly understood the whole thing, it is estimated that this group of thieves robbed the nest this time, brought the bride with the dowry, and then robbed all the things that were all taken away, so I sent these people back!
I scratched my head, thinking that I had to go to the crime scene anyway, otherwise I didn't even know the terrain and what else could I investigate, so I asked the last question: "Do you remember where you were robbed at that time?" ”
"Remember!" More than a dozen people nodded in unison.
I turned my head to look at the old man Wang who was still sitting in the chair, "Master Wang, I wonder if you can let them take me to see it?" ”
"Of course you can, Bi Gongzi, please take care of yourself!" The old man replied to me.
"Thank you!" I bowed my hand, then turned my head to look at the dozen or so people, "Now, which of you will take me there!" ”
The old man from before stepped forward, looked at me and said, "I'll take my son there!" ”
"Thank you!" I looked at the somewhat kind old man in front of me, and walked out.
"Bi Gongzi!" Old man Wang shouted to me behind him.
"Is there anything else to do with Master Wang?" I stopped and turned my head to look at Old Man Wang.
Old man Wang stood up, walked towards me, and said as he went, "The old man asked you to prepare horses, come and go quickly!" ”
I see! I nodded. After a while, the servants brought two tall horses, and gave one to the old man.
In fact, I really don't know how to ride a horse, I haven't ridden in my last life, I've never touched it in my life, if Situ Hong is around, you can teach me how to ride a horse, but now I can ride!
The old man didn't know that I couldn't ride a horse, Gaba simply turned over and got on the horse, I hesitated for a moment, and followed the old man's appearance and climbed on the horse, and the way I got on the horse was clumsy like a bear climbing a tree, which made people laugh, but I also climbed on the horse, and then the two of us slapped the horse's buttocks and ran towards the outside of the town.
To be honest, this horseback riding is definitely a special offense to watch a unique face to ride, it's really not as chic as when I watched costume dramas before, the bumps up and down plus the oncoming wind, the head carries forward a unique elegant style, but now I only feel upside down when I ride on the horse, uncomfortable!
……
Soon we both ran out of town and headed for an unknown place.
The speed of this horse is estimated to be more than 60 yards, which is definitely going to be speeding if it is in the city, but I don't know how to open the ticket when the road comes, and whether the horse will be detained, because I don't have a driver's license yet!
Half an hour later, the old man and I came to an open field.
The old man reined in his horse, then turned over and came down, pointed to a junction not far away, and said to me, "Childe, it was here that the bandits robbed the young lady that day!" ”
It took me a great deal to get off my horse and look at the intersection that the old man was pointing to.
In fact, this intersection looks like a village road, with a straight road winding forward and not knowing where it goes, and the path that is cut diagonally into it is like a tree branch, bending in the other direction.
I looked at it, and it was a place that resembled a valley, with mountains everywhere, but the main road was like a small river, and it followed the valley, and it was possible to get out of the valley by following this road, and the branch-like road seemed to be a tributary, winding into the mountain on the right, and if I guessed correctly, the bandits must have rushed out of this path.
I looked at it for a long time, looked at the old man and asked, "Did those bandits rush out of this path?" ”
"Exactly!" The old man nodded.
I looked at the path again, the path criss-crossed, after entering the mountain, there must be more forks, this main road is clean, the bandits swooping down must be successful, first, so many people can't run, and secondly, it is calculated that if you run, it will only run to the dark, as long as the bandits add a little foot strength, they will naturally be able to catch up. I turned my head and asked, "Then did you young lady also be robbed from this path?" ”
"Exactly!" The old man nodded again.
I get it, and that's the key to starting with this path.
"Your lord, did you send someone to check on this lower road?" I pointed to the path that forked into the mountains.
"I found it, but this path is towards the mountain, and the further you go, the more forks in the road, I don't know which road the thieves are taking!"
"Hmm!" I nodded, then turned around and flipped on my horse with great difficulty.
When the old man saw that I was on the horse, he hurriedly asked, "Childe, shall we go back?" ”
"Don't go back!" I looked at the path in front of me and patted my horse forward, "I'll go find it!" ”
"Childe, I can't help it!" The old man was suddenly anxious, with a worried look on his face, "If the son goes in, it will be good to return it in vain, if there is some misery, what should I do?" ”
"It's okay!" I replied with a big grin, and walked away.
When the old man saw that he could not stop me, he also turned on his horse and followed me.
