The sky was overcast and the wind was howling.

The baby's tiny corpse curled up stiffly, already purple, his eyes closed tightly, and his small mouth slightly open, as if to say something.

The baby was only a few months old, and before it had even experienced the warmth and coldness of the world, it was so brutally murdered.

Ah Rong carefully covered his body with a white cloth, which could be regarded as giving him the last bit of warmth.

Zhang Mo watched his three sons, daughters-in-law and grandsons die tragically in front of him one by one, but he was powerless to save them, his heart was torn hundreds of pieces, and he couldn't breathe in pain.

Especially when the youngest baby is cruelly thrown into the well, all his hopes are destroyed, his heart has been hollowed out, he no longer wants to resist, and the murderer finally treats him even more cruelly, he is bent on death, but the murderer slowly tortures him and makes him die a painful death.

"This murderer is really crazy." The officials all sighed.

"We all hope that this will not happen, and we don't know if it will happen." Su Can was also heartbroken, "We still have a lot to do now, we must bring the murderer to justice as soon as possible." ”

Bai Qiuchi nodded.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Light snow began to fall in the sky again, as if to wash away this sin and restore the purity and beauty of the world.

"It's snowing again, so you can record the corpse and transport it back first." Su Can commanded his subordinates and said, "Protect the scene." ”

"Yes!" The officials should be in harmony.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Everyone was busy, and Bai Qiuchi and Su Can were still discussing the case.

"The murderer killed so many people, his body must have been stained red by the blood sprayed, his murder weapons were all thrown here, but the bloody clothes were not found, he must have been wearing it." Bai Qiuchi thought for a while and said.

"If he goes out like this and doesn't deal with it in time, it should be obvious, I don't know if there will be witnesses." Su Can nodded in agreement.

"If it is dealt with in time, maybe it can be found along the way, maybe there are some clues."

"Ah Rong, tell me to go down, and everyone will split up along the way to find out if there are any bloody clothes left by the murderer."

"Yes."

"I'd like to see the backyard again." Bai Qiuchi said.

"Let's go." Su Can made a gesture of "please" and said.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

The Zhang family is a relatively large family, and the yard is very large.

Bai Qiuchi and they looked around the yard, and the footprints in the yard were not very clear, but they could still be seen if they were carefully distinguished.

Because there are only the carcasses of domestic animals in the back door, there are not many people moving around, and the murderer's footprints are well preserved. Although everyone pays more attention to the front door, there are many footprints.

"The murderer should have come in directly through the back door over the wall, his martial arts should be good, he didn't alarm the people in the family, while they weren't paying attention to the meal*, when he left, he should have walked from the front door generously." Su Can concluded.

"After the murderer left, it snowed, covering his footprints, and was found by the villagers early the next morning, and there were still a few traces, but it was a pity that there were too many villagers gathered, and the footprints were all trampled, and it was impossible to tell which way the murderer fled, so the search for the bloody clothes is probably not hopeful."

In short, the difficulty of this murder is quite large.

Su Can's biggest worry is to cause panic in the society, because I don't know if this case will become a serial murder case, the murderer has lost his conscience, and he doesn't even let go of the baby, if it is not solved quickly, I am afraid it will cause greater harm. Someone is more likely to imitate the crime and cause more harm.

"Master Su, we brought people here." Ah Shui, the official of the government, brought a villager who looked very simple.

This middle-aged man was still a little nervous when facing adults for the first time.

Su Can showed a gentle expression to him and said a few words of reassurance, and the villagers relaxed a little after being infected.

"This is the first discoverer, Ah Niu. Su Can introduced Bai Qiuchi.

"Hello fellow." In order to let him relax, Bai Qiuchi also greeted him in a more casual way.

"You...... Hello. Seeing that it was a teenager, Ah Niu was a little puzzled.

"This is the young man of Bai Qiuchi who caught Xue Beidou with his own strength before." Su Can also introduced Bai Qiuchi to Ah Niu.

"Ah, it turns out that you are Bai Shaoxia!" Ah Niu was very excited when he heard it.

Bai Qiuchi's deeds are widely spread in their village, and they can be said to be well-known.

This time, the villager Ah Niu was much more relaxed, and smiled honestly: "The babies of my family worship you!" I like you! ”

"Thank you, fellow." White Autumn Pond Road.

"I'm free to go to my house and sit down!"

"Okay." Bai Qiuchi agreed to come down.

Su Can watched from the sidelines, Bai Qiuchi gave people the feeling that he was very comfortable and very capable, and he was really a rare talent. If such a person close to the people becomes the emperor, he will definitely implement benevolent government and devote himself to the good of the people.

However, it seems too early to think so, and the young man's ambitions are not yet fully determined.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"Can you tell us a little bit about the situation?" Bai Qiuchi asked.

"Yes, no problem." Ah Niu slowed down for a while, he was already much better, and when he spoke to Bai Qiuchi, a heroic boy, he felt that this matter would definitely be solved, so the conversation box opened.

"Bai Shaoxia, Master Su, I am a woodcutter, I go to the mountains to collect firewood in the morning, so I get up early, who knew that I would encounter such a thing in the early morning."

"When did the fellow find out?"

"At that time, it wasn't completely dawn, and the chickens didn't crow, so it should be the middle of the day, right?" Ah Niu thought for a while and said, "At that time, I passed by Zhang's house and found that the lights inside were very bright, so I felt a little strange. The Zhang family is a big family here, and they hire people to work on their fields, so they don't have to get up early at all. ”

"I would pass by their house every day to collect firewood, so I took a look and found that the door of Zhang's house was wide open, which was even more strange. They are often very careful when they are rich, and I wonder if their house has been robbed, so I want to go in and have a look. ”

"I really regret it, why did I go in? As soon as I entered, I saw the old man of the Zhang family, what is that called, what is the blood. Ah Niuyi recalled the scene at that time, and his speech trembled a little.

"Looking at so much blood, I panicked at the time, and immediately went out to find the village chief."

"Didn't you go inside any further?" Su Can asked.

"How dare I!" Ah Niu wiped her cold sweat fearfully, "I don't know how I ran out." ”

"Did you see any suspicious people when you came out?" Bai Qiuchi asked.

"No, I didn't see anything, my brain was a mess."

"Did you notice the footprints outside the door when you entered?" Bai Qiuchi asked again.

"Footprints? Didn't pay attention. Ah Niu shook his head and said, "I'm a rough man, and I was hairy in my heart at that time, and I didn't see anything." ”

"Didn't help much, alas......" Ah Niu was very annoyed.

"Thank you very much." Bai Qiuchi comforted, "If you can think of anything, you must tell us as soon as possible." ”

"That's fine." Ah Niu smiled innocently.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

After sending Ah Niu away, Su Can also found the village chief.

Before the village chief Zhao Changfeng came, Su Can briefly introduced him. This village chief turned out to be a teacher in the city, but he gave up his more generous treatment and returned to his hometown Chengtang Village to become the village head, managing the village in an orderly manner, and the economy was better than before.

He was also about to retire, but this time something like this happened, and he was also very anxious.

"This is Zhao Changfeng, the village chief of Chengtang Village." Su Can introduced.

The village chief is an old gentleman, with a beard, who has gone through vicissitudes of life, and looks really knowledgeable and knowledgeable.

"Hello." Bai Qiuchi saluted.

"Bai Shaoxia, hello." The village chief also saluted, "I heard your deeds earlier, and when I saw it today, it was really extraordinary, and I responded to the sentence 'heroes are out of youth'." ”

"Don't dare to be." Bai Qiuchi said modestly.

"Can you tell us about the situation?" Su Can asked.

Zhao Changfeng nodded and said, "When Ah Niu came to me, I had already gotten up and was playing Tai Chi in the yard. ”

The old man did get up very early.

Ah Niu's face was like earth, and he stumbled over, and he couldn't speak, and I hurried to hold him up, otherwise he would fall. When I asked him what was wrong, he trembled and said that something had happened to the Zhang family, and asked me to go and see it quickly. ”

"Seeing him like this, he must not be able to go with me, so I left him to rest at my house and ran over by myself. My house is quite far from Zhang's house, and I ran over and saw that his house was brightly lit and the door was open, so I hurriedly ran to take a look, and finally knew why Ah Niu was like this. ”

"It was a terrible sight!" Zhao Changfeng sighed, "Knowing that it was the scene of the murder, I didn't move anything, so I retreated." ”

"Did you spot any suspicious people at the time?" Su Can asked.

"No, some villagers began to come out to work on the road at that time, and when they saw me running to Zhang's house in a hurry, some people followed to see what was going on, but these villagers all knew each other, and I still trusted them very much."

"They looked at my face, and probably realized that something was wrong, so they asked me what was wrong, and I only told the fast ones to ride to the customs at once, and stopped them from entering. Fortunately, the villagers were very obedient to my management, and they were only outside, and they didn't go in. ”

"Did the village chief ask the villagers any questions at that time?" Bai Qiuchi asked.

"Actually, the first time I encountered such a thing, I didn't know what to do, it was only later that Master Su came and reminded me to organize the villagers to ask me that I had a direction." Zhao Changfeng shook his head and said, "At present, there are no special discoveries from the villagers. ”

"Did the villagers lose anything? Including livestock. Su Can asked.

"Nope." Zhao Changfeng said with certainty, "If a villager loses something, they will tell me." ”

"Didn't the villagers find anything last night?"

"The Zhang family is a big family, the fields are very large, and there is only one family around here, there is no activity in the village, and the villagers rest early, so it is difficult to have eyewitnesses." Zhao Changfeng explained.
